Wants Alfalfa Raised.

Governor Warner wants the farmers
OF Michigan TO raise alfalfa. He be-.
lieves il would put money in their pock-
cts. 1T is my purpose, " said the gov
ernor, who was at Marquette to attend
a meeting Of the joint prison boards Of
the state, 10 urge on the board Of ag
riculture steps TO popularize among the
farmers alfalfa as a fodder crop
Though the great value and utility of
alfalfa have been clearly demonstrated
Ia other states, Michigan has been slow
to realize its Importance, n the
farmers still give ur their acreage
largely TO the less valuable fodder
crops.
II think the board Of agriculture
should furnish the farmers in every
county IN object lesson Of the value Of
alfalfa, Ny plan Is TO have the board
superintend the sowing of. say 100
tracts Of alfalfa, which would give each
county At least one experimental crop.
In each county one farmer should be
singled out and asked 10 devote five or
ten acres to this crop. Soil analysis
would determine where the seed could
be best planted. and the states experts
would see that the crop was properly
started. The results. / am confident.
would be excellent and the growing OF
alfalfa would receive a great impetus.
alfalfa is the pre-eminent fodder
cror. II yields hountifully compared
with hay. and n its roots run deep in
the ground, 1t fourishes in periods Of
drought in which hay is practically
burned out. II alfalfa was generally
planted in the upper peninsula. for in
stance, you would not hear apprehen-
sions about the shortage of fodder ex-
pressed on every hand as you do now
The experiment | have in mind would
cost maybe 81. 600 or 81. 900. but would
be Of incalculable value TO the state. "

lively, as he perused his official mall
this morning, that the people of the
west do not gain the notion that the
city government of this city is an insti-
tuition for the distribution of children"
This expression was called forth by
several letters from persons asking that
orphan children be sent them to raise.
Two of the letters were from Holland,
Texas. Another came from Tulsa, Okla,
and a third from Louisiana.
Two letters postmarked Holland, Tex,
were both from married couples but both
were childless -.
The charitable organizations of New
York regularly distribute orphan children
of this city through the south and west
Recently trainload of babies were taken
to New Orleans. The publication of this
fact probably led to the belief that Mayor
Gaynor's official duties consist in finding
homes for waits.

set the public right.

London, March 21.-(Special.) TUESDAY,
March %. will be fateful day for the
British empire for on that day Premier
Asouith will present to the house OF COM
mons his plan for dealing with the house
of lords. and the issue between the COM
monality and hereditary aristocracy OF
Great Britain will be formally Joined, and
sooner or later the question will be pre-
scented to the electorate for final adjudi-
cation.
Conjectures as focused upon the course
the lords will take in dealing with the
government resolutions. Not more than
eight days at the most will be required
to get the verdict of the commons, but
the lords have it in their power to hang
up the matter indefinitely by adjourning
debate or delaying a vote.
What seems probable to the best judges
is that the lords will seize the oppor-
tunity to declare that the recent election
demonstrated the wisdom of their policy
in referring direct to the country new
fiscal proposal and following the prece-
dent thus established that it is their duty
to lay the question of constitutional revo-
luton before the electors.
At all events, argue those who make
such a prediction. whether they reject
the Asqufth proposition or hang it up, the
end must be the same.

Next Tuesday Will Be Fateful
Day For The British Empire
BY PAUL LAMBETH

AS soon as the veto resolutions have
passed the commons, Mr.. Lloyd George
will ask assent to the budget. The gov
eminent will not wait for action a single
day, and Mr.. Asquith has intimated that
he will make a free use of the closure to
put the bill through. He declares that
''our determination to get the approval of
this house for the budget Is not contingent
upon anything that may happen in an
other place"
From these statements it Is inferred
that If the lords hang up or throw out
the veto resolutions the government will
not dissolve parliament or resign until
the budget has again been thwarted. Even
IL the lords nullify the budget and the
veto resolutions, it is said Mr.. Asquith
may not bring on the final collision until
he has become convinced of the inability
to enact a law en1bodying the govern
ment's proposals as to the lords.
On all sides it is admitted that he has
made the most of a very difficult situa-
ton, and his admirers predict that he will
continue to display consistency and cour-
age.
1t is interesting to note that among the
minority II peers who voted against Lord
Roseberry's resolution to abolish the
hereditary principle in the house of lords.

Bacon, who married daughter OF the
