Irrlsatlng Crops In Rows.

In irrigating crops like beets, can
taloupes, or any crop that is necessary
to have the rows wet uniformly, 1t is
essential to have the water applied the
whole length Of the row as nearly at
the same time as possible. 1t is gem
eral principle of irrigation that the
ground should be flooded as little as
possible, and the smaller the quantity
Of water that is used, the better the
results that will be secured II the land
is sufficiently wet.
II the rows are ''sledded out' with q
log three or four feet long and about
the same size as the furrow on land
that takes water readily and is inclined
to become over wet at the upper end of
the rows, the water will run through
the rows in half this time required in .
loose, rough ditch; and by regulating
the amount Of water 30 that 1t runs In
The Dolores star., 1909-06-04

the furrow only about - fast - II
soaks into the row along the whole
length, very little water will be wasted
The yield Of beets in the Arkansps
Valley hss been much increased wbese
this method has been practiced.
The logging sleds are made 20 that
two rows are smOothed out at once.
This plan Of smoothing out the furrowr
saveS water, prevents land from be-
coming over soaked, aud gives higher
yields Of crops.
When 1t IL desired to apply only q
small quantity Of water ~ In grow
ing alfalfa In rows for seed, II is posi-.
BILE to apply just enough water In. this
way to fiIl and develop the seeds, aud
prevent starting an after growth OF hay.
Logging sleds can be made from six by
eight-inch tinlbers, or from round butt.
Of large poles. The runners are usually
made three and half feet lopg.-Philo

How to Detect Sweet Clover Ii
Alfalfa Seed.

The detection of sweet clover in al
falfa seed, is very important to the man
buying seed; doubtless many are not
aware that it is comparatively easy to
detect 1t, If one is familiar with few
very characteristic points.
To examine seed successfully one
needs small lens, magnifying five or
ten times. to determine the form of the
seeds.
Alfalfa seeds are produced in spiral
pods. Normally the seeds are "bean,"
or "kidney" shaped, and the scar Of
attachment is usually near the center
of the seed. The over-crowding In the
alfalfa pods causes irregularly shaped
seeds, so little dependence can be placed
ON the shape of the seeds of alfalfa; !;
but the seeds of sweet clover are very
regular in form as the seeds are pro-
duced singly in little pods. The scar
of attachment on the sweet clover seed
Is near one end and the seed is nearly
oval in form, and quite regular, never
in shape like alfalfa seed.
BY spreading sample of seed thinly
on a sheet of paper, and seeds suspected
of being sweet clover can be separated
with the aid of the lens; and then, by
chewing them fine, their taste will de-
termine their identity without doubt.
Alfalfa seed has distinct beany flavor,
while sweet clover will taste like the
sweet clover plant smells, strongly
vernal.
The form of the seed, and the taste,
are the characteristic points to deter
mine the identity of the seed; and with
little practice. especially If one can
compare the two, there will be no mis-
take In determination.-P.K X. Blinn.

h0usekeeplng.

The art of housekeeping is one which
deserves special mention.
In Germany the daughters Of the
finest families are sent to someone who
is competent, and who teaches them
the art of housewifery; and girl
would he ashamed to be married II she
was not good housekeeper.
Housekeeping ranks as a profession
as truly as any other occupation.
There is a far greater demand for
women who understand housekeeping
than for those who are advance in the
art of dancing.
Domestic Economy should be studied
by all women.
Clean and sanitary houses, healthful
meals, system in housework, and an
attractive and cheerful home can do
more to promote good health than any
physician.

hOisework Is fine, honorable work, and

Heroic Christianity.

And since men are to be judged moi
merely by the way in which they sub
NIT themselves to forces but by the
quality of the forces to which they sub
init, not merely by their obediences
but by their masters, not merely by
their enthusiamls hut by the subjects
about which they are enthusiastic, II
certainly is different sort Of claim. to
our respect when man dares any kind
Of sacrifice for Christ and his gospel OF
mans divine sonship, from that which
comes when man dares just the same
sacrifice for himself or for his family,
which is but his extended self. Here
is the true value to give to the often
told and ever touching story of mis-
sionary's sufferimgs. ! resent 1t as an
insult TO him If l am asked to pity
him because, going to preach the gos-
pei of the Savior, he very often has to
sleep out doors and walk till he is foot
sore aud stand where men jeer at him
and taunt him. But rejoice in that
story Of suffering because / can see
through it the clear, strong power Of
his faith in that gospel for which he
undertook it all. The suffering is
valueless save for the motives which
shine through it. The world is right
when seeing Paul and a whole shipload
of other people wrecked upon the cost
of Malta, it has wholly forgotten or
never cared who the other people were,
but has siezed the shipwrecked Paul
and set him among the heroes. 1t was
not the shipwreck but the idea that
shown through the shipwreck, that
made his heroism. He was a martyr,
a witness. The roar of the breakers
and the crash of the ship were but the
emphasis. The essential force and
meaning were In the great apostles
faith. The poor wretches who suffered
with him were on their own selfish
errands, and the shipwreck could give
no real dignity or beauty to what was
not In itself dignitied or beautiful
