PROVES ALFALFA GROWS IN IOWA
p. II. Brown Harvests Third Crop This
Season From Seed Planted Six

rSdTU N9V'
Des Moines. Aug. 20.-Despite the
theory that alfalfa will not grow in
Iowa P. Brown of S45 Ninth street has
proved that it will and does.
Six years ago Mr.. Brown bought
some alfalfa seed in. California and
sowed it at his home Every year
since then he has harvested from one
to three crops without replanting. This
year, the first growth was nipped by
the late frost. But despite the claim
that alfalfa freezes out In Iowa Mr..
Browns crop was not hurt when the
alfalfa had reached the height Of three
feet he cut The third growth is now
a foot high and still growing.
Mr.. Brown did not inocnlate his
ground with soil from an alfalfa field
as is advised but simply planted the
seed and let nature take her course.

tionsls, and the application OF the New

warned club owners against. permitting
syndicate base ball. If II is attempted, he
said, no matter in what league or in what
city, prompt action to suppress 1t must be
taken, not only by the national commits
sion, but by everyone Interested In the
perpetuation Of the national game.
He reviewed the work of the commission
for 1909. showing 1875 findings, rulings and
notices had been issued. This represented
an increase of 200 per cent over the first
