Alfalfa In Dry EARNING.


Ii a farmer on the dry plains has
a well that will furnish just enough
water for fifty head of stock, it would
be absurd for him to try to keep six
ty or s~eventy-ive head on the same
supply OF water; and it is equally ri
diculous for him to attempt to crowd
plants in soil where the moisture is
limited.
Some plants may develop with less
moisture than others, but alfalfa is
not one Of these plants; on the other
hand, it is conceded by all western
farmers that an abundance of mois-
ture is the key to success in growing
alfalfa for hay.
When it is we'll established, alfalfa
will endure long droughts and still
revive when water is applied; to that
extent, 1t is adapted to dry farming"
and its deep roofing tendency may en-
able the crop to grow without irriga-
tion, IL the roots can penetrate to
moist soil.
There are many localities on the
plains where the run-off from heavy
showers could be collected and divert
ed by bitches Upon soil suited to alfal-
IA. Often in a draw" where moisture
from the surrounding prairie is inclin-
ed to center good encouragement for
seeding to alfalfa is offered.
The number OF plants to the acre
than can be maintained in the dry

termined; but at Rocky Ford, Colo,

for the rate on all legal notices is
less except those pertaining to publi-
cation ordinances and council and
town trustees proceedings and the
law In this cas- does not prohibit a
paper If it SO desires to publish all
such matters free. If the Register
Tribune is so patriotic and is seeking
to get congress to annul the law, why
does the dear patriotic sister not pub
lish all the proceedings free instead of
starting a Spanish column and doub-
hing up on the rate? Looking at he
matter from this distance 1t would
seem as if the Record had the most
tenable position, for that paper pro-
poses to publish the city advertising
at the same rates charged to other
customers, law OF no law. Let the
newspaper men of the territory get
together and formulate a measure for
the next legislature and eyerlastingly
sit down on the everlastingly NEEDLE

dip into the matters In which they re.
ally have no interest, for there are

days later, which will be the time for

hatch we'll.
Arsenate of lead is by odds the best
poison to use, as it is least soluble in
water.
We lave been recommending from
three to five pounds of the poison 10
each 1O0 gallons OF water: but since
Professor Melander has demonstrat-
ed that two pounds to 100 gallons are
sufficient for the best results in Wash
ington state, 1 believe it is advisable
to recommend two, Or not more than
three pounds to each 100 gallons of
spray, for Colorado. And no lime to
the mixture.
Some Precautions.
Use a fine spray with good force
(15O to 200 pounds pressure,) as a
given quantity of spray material will
go further in this way and give better
results.
The amount of material used can
also be economical by spraying the
upper portion of the trees from a
tower SO as to direct the spray down
wards into the calyx cups.
Avoid spraying h trunks and the
large limbs, so as to the liquid
TO run down and collect about the
crown of the tree.
If much of the spray does collect
about the crown of the tree, or if rhe
trees have received repeated heavy
sprays in former years, it would be
we'll to follow Doctor Headuen's az
vice to remove the poisoned dirt from
about the crowns and replace it with
fresh dirt from between the rows.
Avoid using strong alkaline water
for the spray tank as it will dissolve
some of the poison and increase ne
danger of a%rsenical poisoning.
In orchards already suffering severe
ly from arsenical poisoning, it might
be advisable to abandon the spray for
a time and depend upon bands and
the prompt destruction of all wormy
fruit to keep the worms in check.

months produced at the rate of two
and three-fifths tons per acre the first
cutting; and then made a second
growth, equally as good, that was left
for seed. The plat had been seeded
in 1907, to Turkestan alfalfa, and
thinned to single plants twenty inches
apart each way. 1t received n irr1-
cation and vas thoroughly cultivated
that year. The growth in 1908 was
made OF the moisture that was stored
and conserved in the soil; but such
phenamenol yields can hardly be ex-
pected without irrigation. In the IA
vored spots, before mentioned, alfal-
ia a certainly be grown If once eS-
tablished and properly managed.
The growing of alfalfa seeds offers
great opportunities to the farmer on
dry lands, because the fact has been
we'll demonstrated that alfalfa yields
seed best when the plant makes a slow
dwarfed growth, when it really lacks
for moisture, but has enough to set
and fill seed.
Seed grown under dry conditions
has more vigor and vitality tina seed
produced with on excess of moisture,
and it is usually free from dodder and
other noxious weeds, If the field has
had any cultural care. There is a de-
mand o. dry land alfalfa seed that
far exceeds the supply.
In establishing alfalfa for seed pro-
uuction, under dry conditions, 1t is
recommended to sow in rows eighteen
or twenty inches apart, with two to
three pounds of good seed per acre
A hin uniform stand is absolutely
necessary, even to thinning, as in
beet culture; but the stand a ISL
ally be regulated by the amount OF
seed sown.
1t has been found that plants TWEEN.

ty inche apart will support each 9TH
er n not lodge nor lay on the
ground, as in thicker or thinner stands
With a good stooling variety like the
Turkestan, plants six to twelve inch
es apart in the row are thick enough.
If all the seed would terminate, one
pound per acre would he ample, burt 1t
is difficult to SOW a small quantity uni
formly in the row, and for seed pro-
duction, 1T might pay to space and thin
h plants.
The row system IS essential, as 1t
permits inter-tillage to eradicate the
weeds and to conserve the moisture
and also allows deep cultivation to
absorb winter storms, affording an
opportunity to furrow out the rows
and to direct or divert any surface
water that may or may not be needed.
1t is the only system that will allow
the tillage that is so essential to all
dry farming.
The four row beet c%ultivator with
its wedding knives and other attach
ments, is an ideal tool for c~ultivating
the crop. A four-row drill adapted to
sowing alfalfa seed is needed to COM
plete the equipment, but the ordinary
beet drill, with the addition of an al
falfa or grass seeder attachment, can
be modified to suit the work.
The seed should be sown shallow,
not over an nch deep, and good re-
suits have zen secured with b
common garden drill by marking out
the ground with the rows gagged in
sets of four, to correspond to the four
row cultivator.
Where there is an opportunity to
use irrigation or food water, the field
should be ditched in every other row,
and tho fr1vrnyyc tt1ooond N,1ts, -;+h n
sled made of short logs, 8 to 10 inches
in diameter and from 3 to 4 feel long,
spaced to fit W. burrows, so that the
water may run through as quickly as
possible, for the alfalfa crop for seed
will need as little water as can be ap-
piled. A short rush of water after a
sudden shower can be delivered over
considerable ground If the field is pro-
perly ditched. p. K. BIINN,

MULLANE ON THE NEW
PUBLICATION LAW.

FTOm CARLSBAD current.
In a spasmodic fit of advertising vir-
ture the Register-Tribune of Roswell
condemns the new law regulating
newspaper charges for legal publish
ing. Has 1t come to this that the leg
islature will make thieves of all the
newspapers in the territory: Does the
new law compel the Register-Tribune
to charge any more for its legal 10
tees or b proceedings of the City
council than it ever charged? Rot.
Well, that is a mild name for h trash
dished up by the Register-Tribune.
The new law Is said to be so bad as
to bankrupt Roswell. More rot. A
more deliberate and foolish attempt
10 mislead the public and advertise
a sheet at the expense of another, or
the whole newspaper fraternity was
never made and should be beneath the
dignity of any self respecting news
paper. In the first place h new law
reduces the rate possible to charge
seven and one-hah cents e line for
the first insertion and If carried to its
extreme limit by the newspapers
would increase the rate to be charged
for ordinances and council proceedings
to a p~rohibitive rate. But who except
q thief would over charge the town
or city? This paper charges the town
OF Carlsbad the same rate 1t does any
other patron and less per line now
than before the so-called robbery by
law was instituted If the number of
times to publish is taken into consider
alton and less han one-twentieth of
the charge figured by the Register
Tribune in it's delerium OF spasmodic
advertising virtue. The rate now
charged the town of Carlsbad by the
ofacial publication is five cents per
line and two and one-half cents per
line for each subsequent insertion. Is
there any thing in the law that would
compel the Register Tribune not to
do likewise, or to charge a rate that
1t would think reasonable instead of
starting a Spanish column just to get
an opportunity to rob the city OF Ros-
well? Not on your life. The new
law is all right and there is not only
not any danger Of the newspapers rob

NEW YORK, Oct. 23, 1909.
Activity in the local leaf market
seems to have slackened considerably.
Perhaps because factories are too busy
to devote their time to replenishing
of their raw material The September
returns of the Internal Revenue Bureau
show an increase in the production of
large cigars of over thirteen millions,
which though not comparable to former
increases of from fifty to sixty millions
per month, is nevertheless indicative of
a steady advancement of the cigar
industry. 1t may be assumed that the
present slackness of the leaf market is
not the forerunner already Of the holi-
day atmosphere, as that would be too
long period of inactivity. The new
binder and filler crops, sampilng OF
which is now nearly finished, remain
still intact, although inquiries for and
inspection of them have been frequent
during the week. The market, however,
does not seem to feel nervous about
their slow movement. 1t simply means
for it advanced prices. The destruc-
ton by fire of 1900 cases of Ohio at
Dayton and the absorption by the larg-
est cigar company of $50, 900 worth of
1908 Pennsylvania as chronicled in
special dispatches in our issue today,
cannot but have tendency of boosting
up prices on our seed filters. In wrap
per leaf both Sumatra and Florida en-
Joy steady calls. The inscriptions for
this year having passed with yester-
days last sale at Amsterdam, the stock
of Sumatra now on hand will have easy
sailing until next Spring. For this
years Sumatra importations seem to
have given general satisfaction both as
to availability and price. AS for the
Florida, since its price has been ievelled
down to the requirements of the trade,
it is gradually pushing to the front
again. The raising of that type under
shade was anything but an unmixed
blessing. 1t certainly increased enor-
mously the cost, while the adequate
compensation did not come up quite to
expectation. More sun-raised leaf
might prove more successful. 1t might
lose somewhat in yield, but it would
undoubtedly gain in quality and elas-
ticity. In the Havana market trading
remains active.-Journal.
