Why Hay is Graded Low.

The rules of the National Hay AS
ISOLATION recognizes % grades of hay
which to fall INTO 5 classes: II
notify. clover, mixed timothy and clo-
yer, wild grasses, and alfalfa. Choice
timothy hay must be sound, properly
cured, of bright natural color, not mix
ed with more than one-twentieth of
other grasses. and well balej. Lower
grades OF timothy are Nos. /, 2 and
3. and no grade" Clover a two
grades, Nos. l and g. No. 1 clover
must be medium clover. sound, porper
ly cured. not mixed with more than
onetwentieth of other grasses. and
well baled. Choice alfalfa hay must
be reasonably fine leafy alfalfa OF
bright green color. property cured,
sound. sweet and well baled. Other
grades of alfalfa are Nos. 1. 2. and 3
and d" no grade" These rules are
used by cost cities that have official in
spection.
A large percentage OF the timothy
on the market is graded below No.
l.. The reasons are that many mead
ows are cut for years. until they be-
come weedy N mixed with other
grasses. and that the hay is often cut
too late, so that 1T loses the bright
natural color and palatability. If the
farmer would send to market nothing
but what the feeder considers good
he would get a higher price. II
might be necessary in some cases 10
educate the country buyer also.
Timothy has the lead. especially
among the city feeders, because ii is
not only nutritious but palatable and
nonlaxhtive, and the horse is not
likely to overfeed. Nevertheless, 9th.
er kinds of hay would often prove BET
ter for the feeder Alfalfa. for in
stance, a high muscle-building qua
lities and is especially valuable fol
draft horses. 1t Is highly relished
however. and the horse may overfeed
Doubtless the feeder will in time learn
that hay from legumes has great val
ne when properly used.
Meantime the farmer is Obliged tc
include clover and other legumes In
his rotation in order to maintain the
fertility of his land. In regard tC
| good rotations the U. s. Department
of Agriculture is glad to give advice.
In any case, the farmer who sells
hay should seek to produce the high
est grade by keeping his meadows
pure and by proper methods of cut
ting. curing and stacking. Further

In an attempt TO put an end to these

Der of the family, prepared an afhda-
Wit setting forth the facts regarding
Colonel Ingersoll's passing. It Is as
follows:
lon November 16, 1896, while on
a lecture trip at GAINESVILLE, Wis.,, Col
one Ingersoll had a cerebral henor-
rhage. He continued to lecture for a
few days but at the solicitation of his
family went to Chicago and consulted
DIR. Frank Billings. who advised him
to return home and rest for two
months, which he did. He then, Janu-
airy "a. 1897. resumed lecturing which
he continued up to the time of his
death. 1t was at this time. early In
1897, that he developed angina pee
toris. from which he suffered greatly
and which was the cause of his death.

At about ten-thirty he said he woul

with a smile. and as he did so closed
his eyes and passed away without a

one else was present. II Is said that
he recanted. This is a cruel and ma

MAN SHOT AT MON

Incomplete report ome over the
long distance phone OF h killing of
a man named Johnson at a ranc ten
miles from Monument, which is about
twenty miles south OF Knowles. near
the Texas line in Eddy county, almost
due east of Carlsbad fifty or sixty
miles. Johnson was killed. 1t Is alleg-

nine shots were fired into his body,
two of them being charges OF buck
shot.
According to the report, Johnson
and the Moores had trouble over a
land deal and had a suit in court, in
which johnson won the verdict. This

METHODS OF POULTRY

The work in poultry management at
the Maine Experiment Station has
been OF great value to poultrymeu, es-

yield of eggs. and 20 developing the
most satisfactory methods of Matching

An interesting feature Of the work
Is the use OF trap nests. A band with

NORTH POLE.

LII discovering LQ0 NOrCn role,
DR.. Cook and Commodore Peary
have exhausted a field of adventure
that has captivated the imagination
and lured the courage of men for
more than three centuries.
The brief advices received indi-
cate that the American flag has
planted at the pole, and that con-
trary to the belief of recent years,
the pole was found on land and not
in the sea. When Cook and Peary
return they will of course be expect
ed to furnish indisputable proof of
the genuineness of their discoveries,
but considering their long expert.
ence, their courage and scientific at
tainments, it is not probable that
they could have erred in calculating
their-positions.
Every since efforts were made to
secure a northwest passage to India,
Arctic exploration has engaged more
or less the attention of explorers.
In early days commercial motives
actuated the promoters of the expe-
ditions, but since Franklin's day the
underlying motives that have &C
tuated the explorers have been scien-
tifc, coupled with a love for adven-
ture.
DR.. Cook sailed in the summer of
1907, and the last advices received
from him indicated that he felt tie
utmost confidence in being able to
achieve success, He proposed to
make a dash to the pole during the
winter months, contrary to the u.s.
ual custom, and if it is confirmed
that he reached the pole in April,
he evidently carried out his propos-
ed plan. A cable soon followed DR..
Cooks advices, from Commander
Robt. E. Peary, declaring that he
discovered the pole on the sixth of
April. Both are heroes of the hour,
and we do not care to contest Just
at present who was first to reach the
nole. But we know, however, that
CDk's exploit cannot diminish that
of Peary's, nor can Peary's nullify
Cooks.
The achievements of these two
noted scientists and explorers pos
sess NJ material value whatever, it
will contribute nothing to the wealth
of the world and nobody will ever get
the smallest commercial profit there
from. Still, it is one of the greatest
achievements of the age,s because
there abides another than the COM
mercial standard by which mans
work is measured; and somehow, it
prevails whenever pitted against the
material in human philosophy. In
their achievements lie the apothea-
