Alfalfa CUTTINGS.

The various cuttings Of alfalfa diff
fer somewhat in looks and value. The
first is always the heaviest in yield,
the stems in 1t will usually be rather
coarse and there are some few weeds.
We consider it valuable feed, but 1t
has these two objections. The sec
ond cutting has smaller stems, no
weeds and very large proportion of
leaves to stem. This is the kind we
always try to sell. The third crop has
even more leaves and generally a
more attractive appearance than the
first two, but, says Orange Judd Farm
er, unless 1t has matured well be-
fore cutting, 1t is not as nutritious as
the first two.

Modern Plays Puzzle Empress.

The empress Of Japan has been
reading some European plays and
she does not like them. She consid-
ers that they deal with forbidden sub

meditations. The freedom with which
women in them are represented as
expressing their opinions in public,
giving vent to their most intimate
sentiments and putting their hand
kerchiefs over their eyes and weep
ing before people, is said to strike
her as quite incomprehensible.

Robbery.

New York, July 31-Father Martoo-
gessian, the Armenian priest and for.

arrested as result Of police inves-
tigation following the murder OF H. s.
Tavshanjian, was indicted by the
grand Jury on charge of attempted
robbery in the second degree. His
bail was fixed at $4,000.
The murder Of Tavshanjlan, who
was reputed to be one of the wealth
lest Armenians in the country, was
laid at the door of Armenian revolu.
tionists. 1t has been the theory Of
the police that he was killed after he
had repeatedly refused to supply
money to one Of the revolutionary
societies. Following the arrest of
Father Martoogessian and several
other Armenians, however, the Hun
chakist party issued a formal state
ment declaring that the party is in no
way involved in the affair and that

party because of their methods of Oh
tanning money from fellow country
