READERS of the american Maya

in John Kenneth Turner's articles
on "Barbarious Mexico" have
been puzzled at their sudden and
unaccountable stoppage. Mr..
Turner's explanation is published
in the June 4th issue of the appeal
to Reason, of Girard, Kansas. In
substance it is, to use Mr.. Turner's
words, because the editors of the
american Magazine found them
selves face to face with ''a power
whose might they had m~isjudged
and which threatened to crush
them" A publication is promised

Rules for Alfalfa.

DR.. Beal, of the Michigan Expert
ment station, In an address not long
ago., laid down the following ten rules
as necessary to make a growth Of
alfalfa for a period Of ten years or
more: 1. Select land that is deeply
drained. Swampy land or soils in
which the hard pan comes very close
to the surface will not make a proper
place for alfalfa. q. Prepare the land
as for a crop Of wheat. 8. If the soil
is not alkaline, apply air-slaked lime.
4. Sow about four pounds OF good,
clean seed to the acre at the time of
corn planting, or else early in August,
If the soil is moist then. 5. With
alfalfa seed SOW orchard grass or tall
GA grass. about a peck each to the
acre. Excellent results may also be
obtained by adding two pounds OF
timothy seed. s.. Under no circum-
stances should a so-called nurse crop
be sown. Z. If nodules are not pro-
duced on the roots, innoculate with
soil containing them. s.. Clip young
growth from one to three times. g.
Cut when few plants of alfalfa are
first in bloom. 10. Leave a moder-
ate growth in the fall as a mulch.

FEVER CATTLE TICK
Pest in Southern States Costs
Government Much Money.
Reason Why II II Necessary to Keep
All Animals Off Pasture Where
Attempt 70 Being Made to
Eradicate Little Pest.

(By PROF. e. c. COTTON. Tennessee.)
The presence of the fever tick IN
the states south Of the federal guar
antine line costs the agriculture OF
that region the enormous sum OF
800, 100000 per year. In this day OF
modern agriculture and increased In
~telligence among the farmers this Is
too high a tax, even II it Is q yolun-
tary one, to pay for the privilege OF
harboring a nuisance.
The fever tick and nearly all other
ticks in their development pass
through four states: Egg. seed tick,
nymph and adult.
The eggs are laid by the engorged
adult tick.
BY seed tick is meant the little tick
from Matching up to the first moult.
BY nymph is meant the young tick
between the first moult and the sec
ond moult.
The term adult is applied to the
tick after the second moult and In
cludes the so-called "yearling tick"
and the fully engorged tick. The en-
gorged tick lays from 1900 to 1000
eggs in from 9 to IS days, depending
upon the season of the year, requiring
the longer period in cold weather and
the shorter in summer.
The six-legged seed ticks hatch
from the eggs in from 26 to 20 days,
again depending upon the temporal
ture.
The seed ticksacrawl upon grass,
weeds and shrubs and await the COM
ing of animals, from one day to sew
eral weeks.
After getting on an animal the seed
ticks feed sever to twelve days, when
they shed their skin, emerging as
eight-legged nymphs.
The nymphs feed upon the host anil
mal five to ten days, then moult.
emerging as adults.
The adults mate and feed four to
fourteen days, when they drop to the
ground and lay eggs.
The fever tick completes this cycle
twice and in favorable seasons three
times a year in Tennessee. They have
been doing this as long as we have
