BRIGANDS' MOUNTAIN CAVE.
Explanation of the Mysterious Disap-
pearance of a Servian Band.

Last week the population of Kragbu-
jevats and the surrounding villages
joined the police in the pursuit of band
of brigands who had long infested the
neighbOring mountains. The fugitives
led the chase through circle passing
through the narrowest defiles, and each
time they emerged into open space one
at least was missing.
After three days there remained only
the leader, Ignat Volkovitch. He headed
for distant peak and was skirting an
enormous boulder when a little girl 3
years old ran into his arms. In his per-
plexity the police came up and discov-
cred that this boulder blocked the mouth
of a cave. Here Volkovitch's accom-
plices were found huddled together.
Those who attempted to escape were
shot, but Volkovitch, at once impeded
and safeguarded by his little daughter,
was persuaded by his wife to surrender.

Cow Peas for Vineyards.

Cow peas are a good crop for vine
yards. The grapes are given thorough
cultivation until late June, when the
cow peas are sown. Before this prac-
tice was begun, says the Farmers and
Drovers' Journal, it was a problem to
hold the soil about the roots of the
vines. After cropping with cow peas
for several seasons the land washes
but little and the vines grow better
and bear betterd. The cow peas make
sufficient cover, so one does not get
into the mud when pruning in wet
weather in late winter or early spring
Whether grown in the orchard or vine
yard the peas should usually be plow-
ed under the following spring. In this

Alfalfa Planting.


1t should not be forgotten that the
spring is the proper time to prepare
the alfalfa crop that is to be planted
next fall. The ground which is ex-
pected to be used for this crop should
not be planted to small grain; neither
should corn precede alfalfa, because
the ground will not be kept free of
weeds and grass. The best prepare
tory crop for alfalfa is COW peas; then
after the vines are removed or plowed
under the ground should be well
broken and kept clean of weeds and
grass by surface cultivation until it
is seeded in alfalfa the following fall.
Peanuts may be grown instead Of COW
peas, if the crop is considered more
desirable, as 1t is perhaps, but they
must be kept well cultivated and es-
pecially allow no earth grass to grow
in the crop.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
