new FORAGE PLANT
FOR RANGES
Especial to Silver State.)

WASHINGTON, Sept. ls.-Uncle
Sam is now studying the distribution
and habits of Alfilerilla, one of the
vests best forage plants, with view
of determining the possibility Of grow
ing it upon er-grazed ranges, and in
Producing it upon national forest
ranges where hitherto it has been un-
known, or has occurred only in limited
quantities.
Alfilerila is very valuable and
hardy forage plant, which constitutes
one of the principal spring feeds upon
many of the semi-arid ranges of the
southwest. Stock fattens rapidly upon
it, and the gain is good hard tallow
not easily lost through shipment.
Many stockmen have endeavored to
introduce it upon their ranges, and in
most instances their efforts have fail
ed. The cause of this failure is now
found to lie in the fact proven by
tests made by the Bureau of Plant In
dustry, that the seed sold by seed
firms seldom has over ten per cent
germinative power, and that nine
tenths of the seed sown is worthless.
The United States forest service has
been in receipt of many requests for
the planting of Alflelilla upon spring
ranges within the national forests, ami
has decided to act upon them. Tests
having proved the impossibility Of Sc
curing satisfactory supplies Of the
seed through the ordinary channels, A.
w. Sampson, plant ecologist, was de-
tailed to the work of securing supply
that would meet all requirements.
Beginning his Investigations upon
the Sequoia forest in California he dis
covered that by setting aside suitable
tracts upon which the plant was
abundant, and watching its growth
seed with germinative power in ex-
cess of ninety per cent could be secur-
ed in large quantities, and at a cost
much below the prevailing market
prices. AS result of his investiga-
tions the forest service has arranged
to set aside certain tracts in the south
west this fall for the purpose of cul-
tivating and collecting Alflerilla seed.
The seed thus secured will be used
to re-seed over-grazed and otherwise
depleted ranges within national for
ests, and it is planned to introduce the
plant upon many dry ranges to which
it has hitherto been a stranger. The
success of this movement means much
to the stockmen using national forest
ranges. In the southwest many .
stockowner has been saved from heavy
loss or even absolute ruin by the
A1filerilla that covered his spring
ranges at time when other early
feeds were lacking and sustained his
cattle until the advance of the season
produced other sources of feed supply,
and it is probable that the plant will
be as valuable in other portions Of the
country.

From This Cause
=. Was What Prompted Henry
Bentley to Murder His
Wife and Cut His Own
!. Throat

Rolla, N. D., Jan. 21.-Because his
wife refused to come and sleep with
him after he had abused her in a fit
of jealous anger, Henry Bentley cut
her throat and then his own with a
razor on Sunday night and both are
dead.
Bentley and his wife and four children
have been living On claim in the Tur-
tie mountains, about twenty miles from
St. Johns, which is at the end of the
Rolla branch, and it is said that there
had been bad feeling between the pair
for some time and that the only rea-
son that the woman was living with
Bentley was so that they would be able
to retain their rights to the claim.
On Sunday some neighbors came in
and played cards with the Bentleys and
Bentley got exceedingly jealous of the
man who was playing partner with his
wife. After the guests had gone Bent
ley began to abuse his wife and she
finally refused to go to bed with him
making up bed for herself on some
chairs.
Bentley ordered her to come to bed
with him and she refused and he got
his razor and told her that if she
did not come he would cut her throat.
On her still refusing he slashed her
across the throat severing the jugular
vein and she expired in a few min
utes. Bentley then gashed his own
throat and then running out he threw
the razor into a we'll.
Bentley died in about six hours. The
whole affair was witnessed by fifteen
year-old daughter who is the oldest of
the six children and she told the story
to Coroner LaFrance of Rolla who went
out to hold an inquest.
The coroner's jury brought in YER
dict of death at the hands of Henry
Bentley while in a fit of jealous anger"
