1t was not until 1893. when Napoleon
became first consul, that 1t was safe
for Lafayette to return to France. Ma
poleon made every effort to win his
support, but Lafayette. the unalterable
republican. protested that Napoleon was
ruling in violation OF tho constitution;
that he was n dictator. and his govern
ment was not q government of the
people. Friends the two remained, but
nothing could shake Lafayette's oppo-
siton. Napoleon offered a life senator
ship to him. and then minister to the
United States. Lafayette would ac-
cept nothing. Through all tho bril-
liant triumphs of Napoleon Lafayette
remained Staunch republican, and

who insisted that the emperor abdicatc.
1t was Lafayette who treated with
the allies for peace when France was

Sweet Clover a. Eeeler.

Some Of the dry farmers out on the
plains who entertain the idea that
they cannot grow alfalfa might try
sweet clover as feeler crop. The
two plants are closer Kin than cous-
ms. Both are nodule bacteria-prO-
ducing plants, and what Is more. they
have the same bacteria. 1t is quite
reasonable. therefore, to conclude that
wherever sweet clover grows alfalfa
will also. but 1t Is much easier to
get a start of sweet clover. for it
seems to be Indigenous to a large
proportion of the plains region, al
