A petition in involuntary bank

to have been a mortgage was given by
the company to a California bank on

president, who is said to have promised
that he would apply the proceeds OF
the loan to the payment of the credit

filed that there was no consideration
for this mortgage, inc that the trans
action was a scheme to cheat the cred

TO RE-SEED OVER
CRAZED AREAS

In connection with the Bureau of
Plant Industry of the department of
Agriculture, the forest service has
been carrying on a series of expert
ments relative to the ~reseeding of over
grazed areas upon the national forests
in the west.
Among other important forage
plants selected for experimental work
is the common alflaria (Erodium Glen
tarium) of the southwest desert coun.
try. This splendid forage plant grows
all over the deserts of southern Cali
~fornia, Arizona and New Mexico and
furnishes one of the best plants for
fattening live stock, especially sheep,
known to the stockmen. 1t grows in
the early spring when green feed IS
most desirable and in a few weeks will
cover the desert with a rich green
blanket until it looks almost like an
alfalfa field. The plant generally
reaches a maximum height of from
six to ten inches inside of six weeks
and in six weeks more has all died
and blown away leaving the ground
as pare as a floor. The seeds of this
plant have been carried from Califof-
MIA, in the wool of migrating sheep,
into adjoining states, but while ii will
grow at high attitudes, it does not
reach any great height above an eleva-
tion of 5000 feet.
The first obstacle the government ex
perts ran against was the impossibility
of obtaining seed in the open markets
that would terminate. The seed com
mands a high price and is hard to OBJ.
tain but of samples purchased from
various seed houses the terminating
power was never higher than thirteen
per cent and the average of several
samples was about eight per cent.
In order to determine, if possible,
where the fault lay,in the nongerminat,
ing power of the seeds purchased, the
forest service sent one of its plant ex-
perts, Arthur w. Sampson, into the
field in southern California where al
hlaria was known to be most abundant,
with orders to gather seed of this
plant and make a careful study of the
conditions governing its growth.
This has been done and it is very
evident that if the seed can be gath,
cred at the proper time and under
proper conditions. it will have a high
terminating power. Samples of the
seed gathered by Mr.. Simpson showed
a termination of over ninety-one per
cent which is certainly high enough to
be satisfactory to any purchaser. Mr.
Sampson has been able to outline a
method of gathering this seed by which
one mar can gather a very large
amout with little trouble. Enough of
the seed can be easily secured with a
high germinative power with which to
make experimental paintings on several
would make an admirable addition ia
the local forage supply. Alflaria, I'M
der normal conditions, seems 20 be best
in a soil composed mostly of decom
posed granite, but it is believed it viii
flourish in most light sandy soils where
there is sufficient moisture in the early
spring to start the growth.
Now that the forest service has
shown how to gather the seeds there
is no doubt but that the local seed men
will avail themselves of the expert
ment and that in future the grade of
seed sold by seed men win be of a
much better germanative strength.

There is a movement on foot by
the Sunday school workers TO secure
at least 900 members for the Inter

Mr.. Charles Waters, of London,
England, organized the association in
1891. and in this country ii is repre-
sented by Mr.. Marvin Lawrence.

Here We give the what and why Of

what is the International Bible
Reading Association"
II is band of Sunday school Off
GERS. teachers, scholars, parents and
others, numbering now nearly one
million members in all parts OF the
world. who are reading daily the
same portion OF Gods Word. The
readings are all intended to illustrate
the International Sunday School Les
son for the following Sunday.
"Why should ! Join IT,"
Because the daily readings will
help you TO understand Your next
Sundays lesson and so make il more
interesting, because the Bible is the
only guide TO eternal life and you
should read it regularly in order that
YOU may know Jesus, who is "The
Way. the Truth and the Life" Also
because II will help YOU TO live bet
ter life dav by day
what il Required i'm Becoming "a

Any one who will agree to read
the selected portions of Scripture
daily may become "A member OF the
Association. The membership fee is
five cents a year Members have no
other expense. All memberships are
renewable at the first of January no
matter when they began. When
ten or more members are secured
