FAN Alfalfa Seeding.

The Pennsylvania Experiment Sta,
ton has gained much experience in fall
and spring seeding of alfalfa, and says
that the principal objection to spring
sowing is that weeds come up and
choke out the young plants before they
get a good start The fall seeded al
falfa on dry land was able to with
stand the severe winter climate per-
fectly-in fact, better than the COM
mon red clover. Under average condi-
tons, from 20 to 80 pounds of seed
should be sown to the acre. Manure
gave better results on Pennsylvania
soil than did commercial fertilizer.
Lime did not give satisfactory results.
In some instances 1t gave no appre-
ciable results, and in others it was de-
cidedly harmful, but in no case it APP
piled to advantage. Deep, well-drained
soils are the best for growing alfalfa.

Texan Favo-x Barred Rocks.

A Texas man thus tells why he be-
lieves the Barred Plymouth Rock the
best all-purpose fowl raised in Amer
lea: 1t answers every requirement in
cold as we'll as in warm climates and
if given proper attention will prosper
under almost any conditions. AS mar
kct birds the fowls are of an attractive
shape and size from the time they
weigh two pounds until full-grown. The
color also meets the market require
ments. If given reasonable care they
rank with the best nonsetting breeds
as layers and as mortgage lifters they
excel ether live stock raised for mar
ket purposes.

A Doubtful Practice.

The custom of putting the fertilizer
in the ground some time before the cot
ton is planted is questionable, to say
the least. for should there come heavy
rains before the cotton begins to grow,
undoubtedly much of the fertilizer is
leached away beyond the reach of the
roots of the plant, says Florida bulle-
tin. 1t would unquestionably be better
to distribute at least a part of the fer
ti,fzer alongside of the rows after the

stalks to Take Seed From.

The kind of stalk from which to
make selections is one free from suck
ers and possessing tolerably large cir
conference at the base and gradually
tapering toward the top, as this is the
type that stands drouth best and is not
as apt to be blown down as a high,
slender one. In selection. weight should
be attached to good root and leaf de-
yelopment OF the mother parent, as all
nourishment and growth are largely de-
pendent upon the thoroughness with
which these two organs do their work.
Poor root or leaf development is indica-
tive Of meager growth and small poor
ly developed production. All selections
should be made from perfectly healthy

The Underground Bureau.

Is there a single officer giving in
structions at West Point who is aware
that in all our armies in the Civil War
there was among the enlisted men, the
volunteers, a system of gathering and
distributing the news that beat the in
formation we received from division
and corps headquarters, both in time
and accuracy?
1t is the fact. and the system was
paralleled by that of the slaves who
walked the plantations lying within
the Confederacy O. nights.
These army news reporters who walk
ed through the camps at night to meet
other soldiers and discuss the campaign
and make merciless fun and keenest
criticism Of their generals, were almost
invariably Americans. frequently Irish
men. | cannot recall ever having met
on these night ranges men of other ma
tiopality.
There was burning desire among
these men to know how other com
mands Jared, and to gather accurate in
formation, so as to correctly judge Of
the battles tide, the progress Of the
campaign and the morale of the army.
The enlisted men knew of defeats
and successes long before they were
published in general orders The truth
is. that the privates of the army-the
volunteers without bounty | mean
never believed a report that was pub
lished from headquarters unless 1t cor
responded with the information the
camp walkers had gathered. We ex-
pected our generals to lie to us and we
were never disappointed.
1t was surprising how quick impor-
tant news relative to the battle or a
campaign spread throughout the army.
The news was carried from camp fire
to camp fire O nights, and it was gen
orally reliable and wonderfully full
and accurate.
Often as l sat by the camp fire, talk
ing with my comrades, 1 have seen
shadowy forms hurrying rapidly
through the woods and along the road.
and I knew that men who We're hungry
for authentic news were beating the
camps and battle line to obtain It,
Frequently these figures would halt
and then seeing our fire with men near
it, they would issue forth from the
woods and join us. They would sit
down. fill their pipes, light them with
glowing Goals, and then, with their
rifles lying across their knees, ask for
the Second Corps news inquire as to
our losses and whether we had gained
or lost ground, and what Confederate
command was opposed to us. They
would inquire as to the truth of ru-
mors of disaster which they might have
heard during the day. They would
listen attentively to what we said, and
1t was point of honor not to give false
information to these men.
Then they would briefly tell the
Fifth or Sixth or Ninth Corps news,
and quickly disappear in the darkness.

This is my third season In what may
be termed experimenting with boxes
for shipping apples. Have shipped to
commission houses in Pittsburg, Cleve-
land and other points, and without ex-
ception the fruit in boxes has netted
20 per cent more than when shipped In

more than when sold TO local dealers.
The box used is made up of II by Il

are we praying for an automatically
right world! There can be no freedom
where there is enforced Righteousness
no manhood where there is no moral
responsibility. No one is to blame for
the wrong but ourselves. It is not .
spectacle to be deplored it is condi-
ton crying aloud on everything that
is nigh and noble in us to arouse orr
selves and remedy it.
But what Of sorrows caused by death
ana those things beyond our power to
affect? What of the fierce strugole
against the forces of nature? Our own
hearts are answering the question. As
the years give new perspective to orr
SORROWS, even our bereavements, flow
ers Of comfort are seen springing IN
IN their ways and the sweet perfume
of sympathy is in the air because here
we have shed tears together.
How much that is sweet and gentle
and lovely in all our humanity do we
owe to sorrow and pain. Love never
reached it's perfection until permitted
to suffer for another. Families and
friendships are bound faster together
by the breaches in their circles. All
that the word comfort means to us we
owe to our griefs.
Richer far than the things we have
lost has been the heart wealth acouir-
ed through our losses. Had we been
able to keep all we have gained or to
gain all we have desired, how barren
and empty would our hearts and mem
cries be.
AS sweetness has come to life from
our pain, so has strength come from
our struggle with nature. Out of this
school has come character. Where life
has been hardest men have been hard
lest in manhood This loom of life
seems to treat us harshly, but it is not
by looking at the loom that we shall
understand it's work, the finished pat
tern justifies the process; all will be
seen to have been we'll worth while in
view Of the good end, man glorious
and great in moral character.
