What the American people want to
know is why the cost of living is high
and not what politicians think they
can make out OF the subject for cam
paign thunder.
If here is one thing more foolish
than another, 1t is for a politician to
try to build himelf up by denuuncing
others equally as good, if not better
than himself, as dishonest and un-

The men who have succeeded best
with unirrigated alfalfa have pre-
pared their land well and then seed
ed 1t when an abundant supply OF
moisture was present Some have
sown with success as late as August
1st, upon land which has been plow-
ed early and kept free from weeds
until time for seeding.
With perfect termination and per-
feet soil conditions one pound OF al
falfa seed will produce enough plants
to cover an acre OF land, but many
have recommended 15 to 20 pounds
an acre. The amounts sown which
have given the best results on dry
land have been from three to ten
pounds an acre. And It is possibIe
that from s TO 10 pounds OF good
seed will give better results than
larger quantities. because all extra
alfalfa plants not needed are weeds
which weaken the plants that sur
vive the competition.

There is no permanent present" in
the fruit growers art; it is always a
coming-to-be; always now stretch

next at the same time. The trees

to make their faith ripen into fruit to
feed us and into seeds 70 continue
their kind upon the earth.
And the fruit growers duty-what
is that? Merely to study and to

work more effective; must work to
prove his study worth while. And

thy works, and l will show thee my
faith by my works. In truth, you
cannot show your faith without your
work; and you cannot prove. your
study worth while unless you work

work in vain unless you study to
