STATE NEWS BRIEFS.

Commissioner OF Insurance Barry,
with the assistance of the attorney
general, is preparing several repeal
measures for the dead" insurance
laws which now exist.
The farm belonging to Alphonso
Oberly, the Middletown man who dis
appeared two weeks ago, has been
found to be worth only $780, instead
of several thousand, as was at first
supposed.
Four men are under arrest in Eaton
Rapids and two more have left the
vicinity, accused of violating the game
laws. The men hunted a deer which
has been in the, woods nearby for sew
eral days.
The state livestock commission Is
sending out notices to the effect that
the quarantine in townships in eOak-
land, Wayne and Macomb counties
caused by the foot and mouth disease,
have not been raised. but, on the con-
trary, the regulations will be enforced
with increased vigor.
Now that Judge John W. Stone, Of
Marquette, is to be elevated. to the
supreme bench, 1t is proposed to

hand pollination is caused by the pecu.
liar shape, structure and nature OF the
flower. Even after the flower is open
the pollen-bearing stamens and the
stigma on which the pollen must fall
are rolled up tightly in the keel or
lower petal of the flower. Now, in
order to set seed, il has been shown
that these organs must be released
from the keel and the stigma some
what irritated. Insects accomplish
this by alighting on the keel in their
search for nectar in the flower. The
weight of the insects body bursts the
keel and allows the pollen to be
thrown out. At the same time the stig-
ma on being released springs upward,
striking the lower part of the insect,
and receives upon its now irritated
and receptive surface pollen which
has previously busted on the insects
body. Now, this same thing can be
done artificially by pressing upon the
keel with a toothpick, the point of a
dull knife, or other suitable instru.
ment BY this method the number of
flowers pollinated may be counted and
recorded and the seeding ability of a
plant determined, but where a large
amount of seed is wanted and it is
necessary to hand-pollinate several
hundred plants this method is too slow;
still, after little practice, one person
can pollinate 10000 flowers a day.
However where 1t is desired to pol
Innate many flowers rapidly, without

cd may be followed A fiower-cluster,
when in full bloom, is taken between
the thumb and the first and second
fingers, and subjected to light pres
sure, while at the same time 1t is
slightly rolled. BY this operation the
keels OF all the flowers which are in
the proper stage will be made to burst,
setting free the stamens and pistils
and covering the stigmas with pollen.

METHODS OF PROPAGATING
SELECTED ALFALFA PLANTS
Lines of May Be G.
Freeman. Agricultural College.

After a careful study of the charac-
ters of many individual plants, certain
ones will be selected as worthy of flu
ture tests and further propagation.
Three lines of procedure are offered:
l. The selected plants may. be al
lowed to seed in the open and these
seed be harvested and planted in test
rows, subsequent selections being
made from each test-row. This method
has been fully described by Wheeler
and BALI, in Bulletin 101, South Dako-
ia. as follows:
In the breeding of alfalfas the seed
from various sources is sown in selec-
ton rows, each row representing a
single source OF South Dakota Access
sion number The rows are three feet
apart and each plant occupies one foot
of row. One hundred or more plants
are grown in each row. From the Sc
lection rows the best appearing indi-
viduals from the best original sources
are selected and marked by numbered
stakes. The seed from these plants is
saved separately and sown the next
season in centgener or pedigree rows.
The plants in these rows are grown
the same as in the selection rows. The
difference between the selection and
pedigree rows is simply in the source
If the seed; selection rows are from
single regional sources, while pedigree
rows are from single plants selected
from selection rows or from older pedi-

An Improvlsed Rack.

One ingenious housekeeper has hit
upon a novel rack for her back bath
room, much used by the children. She
unscrewed the curved wooden han
die of an old umbrella, bored hole
through the upper part for hanger
and stuck small screw hooks in the
handle at intervals. A large wooden
spool was slipped on the cut off part
of the handle for an ornament and
was covered with several coats of gilt
paint.

hooks were even utilized for tooth

camp. Then the animals seemed to
perceive that their prey was about to
escape them and again they attacked
the man, apparently rendered desper-
ate by hunger.
This time the battle was even more
strenuous than at first, and the attack
was so sudden that Trathin and his
dog were caught in a space so that the
four animals could attack him on all
four sides. For several minutes he
fought them off with his stick, the dog
fighting valiantly. and finally the bull:
dog grabbed one of the brutes by the
throat. This relieved Trathin and he
beat about with the stick to such good
effect that the three wolves departed,
the bulldog lying down in the snow
with its victim, waiting for 1t to die.
With his face and his hands bleed
ing and his clothes practically torn to
ribbons, Trathin ran into the camp
just at dusk and, as soon as he could
speak, told the men his story. He was
given rifle and. with several lumber
jacks. set out to kill the band.
Arriving at the place where the last
battle had occurred, the men saw the
four wolves apparently fighting among
themselves. Firing into the bunch,
two of them were killed and the other
two escaped. Lying to one side was
all that was left OF the bulldog.
When Trathin left the other three
wolves had returned TO aid their COM
panion. and the bulldog. to save his
own life, had been obliged to let go his
wolf and fight the others. The other
was not hurt to any great extent and
joined the other three. the odds OF
four to one being too much even for a
fighting dog. But before the bulldog
was wiped out he had given a good &C
count OF himself. as the bodies of the
two dead wolves showed The animals
had been engaged In eating the body
of the dog when driven away.
Trathin has sworn an oath OF ven
geance against all wolves. He has pur-
chased a Winchester, given up lumber
ing and spends his time killing the
forest providers, which are said to be
more numerous this year than ever
and killing many more deer.

NEW IDEA
Helped Wis. Couple.

1t doesn't pay to stick too closely to
old notions of things. New ideas often
lead to better health, success and hap
piness.
A Wis. couple examined an idea new
to them and stepped up several rounds
on the health ladder. The husband
writes:
Several years ago we suffered from
coffee drinking, were sleepless,
nervous, sallow, weak and irritable.
My wife and / both loved coffee and
thought 1t was a bracer." (delusion.)
Finally after years OF suffering, we
read of Postum and the harmfulness
OF coffee, and believing that to grow
we should give some attention to new
ideas, we decided to test Postum.
When we made 1t right we liked ft
and were relieved of ills caused by
coffee. Our friends noticed the change
--fresher skin, steadier nerves, better
temper. etc.
These changes were not sudden,
but relief increased as we continued To

the desire for coffee.
