RAISED FIRST ALFALFA.
Distinction Claimed by the Late j. R.
BIacl1shire.

A new contestant for the honor of
raising the first alfalfa in Kansas is
in the field. His name is J. R. Black
shire, and prior to his death he lived
at Elmdale in Chase county.
According to P. c. Jeffrey, who has
written to the State Journal. the first
alfalfa seed to be brought to Kan
sas was in 1875 by J. r. Blackshire.
who owned and lived on the Glover
Cliff ranch southwest of Elmdale,
Chase county. Claims that were made
for the late Harrison Parkman, form
er owner of Sunny slope farm neaf
Emporia will have to give precedence
in favor of Mr.. BIackshire, who pur-
chased and introduced the first alfalfa
seed seven years prior to the shipment
brought to Sunny Slope by Mr.. Park
man. Mr.. Blackshire secured his seed
in San Francisco through the firm of
]. NJ. Griffith and brother of Emporia
who at that time were in tt e hardware
and implement business. The first
purchase: made amounted to one
bushel and a half and the bill which
Griffith and brother presented and
which is still preserved in the family
of Mr. Blackshire gives the cost at
$32.25. The bill states, 81 IA bushels
alfalfa clover seed"
In 1882 the Glover Cliff ranch could
boast of quite an acreage of the new
forage plant. The planting of it and
the subsequent increase of this acre
age attracted considerable attention
among the farmers of that portion of
the state. Alfalfa has always been one
of the most important crops to be
raised on Glover Cliff ranch and at
present 1900 acres are devoted to al
falfa alone.
Glover Cliff ranch still remains in
the possession of the Blackshire fam
lily and is one of the most noted of the
central Kansas ranches.

What is the pleasure of the eau
cus?" said Cunningham.
w. Y. Morgan moved that in &C
of the senate caucus be made chair
man of the joint caucus. This was
adopted. The secretary of the senate
and chief clerk of the house were ap

G.. B. Kirkland of Saline presented
a. resolution providing for the pro-
cedure, and also providing that 66
votes should be required to nominate.
There was only one vote cast in OPP
position to this.
c. M Beeson then offered a writ
ten communication from w. M Kin
nison, member from Ford county,
stating that he was sick at the hotel,
and authorizing Beeson to cast his
vote for him, after receiving tnstruc-
tions over the telephone.
Senator Baker offered a telegram
from d. A. Warren, the representative
from Linn county, who is sick at his
home.
'"This telegram" said Senator Bla-
ker, CONTAINS Mr.. Warren's vote, and
no one knows what that vote is be-

It turned out later that the vote was
for Curtis.
However, the caucus voted to re-
iect all votes except those cast in per-
son. The vote was 65 against and As

Representative Archer of Brown,
one of the Curtis floor manager,
moved that all persons participating
in the caucus agree to bind them
selves to abide by the decision of the
caucus
Senator Getty said he did not con-
slider such a motion necessary. mo
resolution of that kind, said Getty,

MAY RACE AT JAMESTOWN FAIR,
Virginia Exposition Promoters Plan to
Have Turf Program.

New York, Jan. 12.-If the plans of
those most actively interested in the
jamestown (Va.) exposition, to be
held next summer, bear fruit, racing
over an up-to-date mile track under
the rules and jurisdiction of the Jock
ey club will be one of the features for
the visitors which the exposition will
attract from all parts of the globe. Eff
forts are now being made by leading
men of Norfolk and the surrounding
country to get the sanction of the
Jockey club for such a meeting.
The idea is to apply for dates during
the latter part of May or early in
June, which will be in the nature OF
trial for the association, as we'll as to
show the Jockey club just what can
be accomplished. If this meeting is
successful additional dates will be
sought.
