President Taft Speaks.
The Prevention OF Blindness.

In the first place this association has d.
rected Its attention to the prevention or
blindness. The statistics seem to show
that from q per cent TO 30 per cent of the
present blindness is preventabe: that in
fantile ophthalma. which ensues on the
birth Of the child. may be completely cured
by the administration OF a very simple
remedy. The successful efforts of this as
sociation to improve the midwifery and e.
provide the specific remedy at the time OF
the birth of children are most highly to he
commended Then the kindergarten for
the blind should be encouraged. This CO.
operates with the association. rescues the
poor blind children under school age from
imbecie and idiot asylums and gives them
opportunity to show that their minds are
not defective and thus saves a number
who would otherwise seem hopelessly de
ficitnt to become fully DEVELOPED by the
Influences Of primary and secondary edu-
cation.
Then comes the education OF the blind
Through the good offices of this association
New York City has now assumed an obi
cation to give to the blind children the
benefit of public instruction. and the fact
that they are constantly with children who
see-study with them and play with them
gives to the blind boys and girls share
in the common life of all the children tina,
seems TO soften the asperity OF their lot.

citation,

President TAN opened the blind workers
exhibition at the Metropolitan Opera House
last night. He came directly TO the ex-
hibition from the home OF his brother,
Henry W. Taft. accompanied by his faith
full military secretary. Captain Archibald
Butt 1t was the Presidents first public
appearance at the beginning Of a busy
evening in the city.
There was a big crowd on hand at the
Opera House to attend the opening. of this
novel and highly interesting exhibition.
The President was the real drawing card.
and every one was eager to hear his ad-
dress Besides the body OF the house,
which was transformd into a large hall by
boarding over the orchestra chairs, the
boxes and the galleries we're well filled with
spectators. who cheeied the President long
and enthusiastically when he appeared on
the platform, accompanied by Joseph H..
Choate, chairman Of the exhibition com
mittee.
The President occupied large oak chair
which had been especially made for him
by Henry Bauman, blind upholsterer and
cabinetmaker of No SIG Ninth avenue.
The chair will be sold at auction at the
exhibition on Saturday evening. Edwin
Grasse. blind violinist and Wilhelm Helm

dent was much pleased with the music.
Both musicians were led upon the plat
form. and he shook hands with them heart

Though hard pressed by other engage
ments, President Taft remained long
enough after the opening ceremonies TO
witness a novel athletic exhibition with the
parallel bars and in tumbing by the boys

Tho Care OF Lambs,

AT eight to ten days OF age lambs
viii begin to eat. At that time a
creep should be built which will give
them access to a feed box containing
grain and a trough with hay. Box.
trough and feed should always be kept
sweet and clean.
A good grain ration for lambs is
made as follows: Mix one-third part
OF oilmeal with one part each OF bran.
oats and fine cornmeal. Red alfalfa
hay or the second cutting OF alfalfa
hay are the most desirable form Ut
roughage- OF the two alfalfa is to be
much preferred.

grain feed right along until the lambs
are sent to market. BY so doing the
lambs are kept fat all the time and
are ready TO be turned into cash on

BEST RESULTS WITH ALFALFA
Secured by EARLY Spring Flowing
With Drill on Land Previously
Put in Good Condition.

The young alfalfa plant Is as tender
and delicate as the well-established
plant ais strong and hardy, so that
while it is necessary TO have the land
in excellent tilth and all other condi-
tions favorable for starting this crop,
well-established field may be har-
rowed and disked. and sometimes
even plowed without destroying or
even injuriug the plants, writes Carl
Schoheld in the Denver Field and
Farm. In fact, surface cultivation
when the plants are nearly or quite
dormant, as in the early spring. seems
TO actually improve the stand and
inyigorate the growth.
The best results with alfalfa on
dry lands are secured by early spring
sowing with a drill on land that has
been previously put in excellent con-
dition OF tilth. The seed is usually
sown without a nurse crop and the
land should be as free from weeds as
possible. for wher the alfalfa plants
are young they may be easily injured
by weeds. During the 'rst summer
the new alfalfa field needs no atten-
tion except possibly a clipping with
a mower set high TO cut any rank
weeds that may have started and TO
cut back the taller alfalfa plants. This
moving is usually left on the ground
to form a mulch The second sum-
mer the alfalfa field is in full beariug
and may be cut once for a hay crop
and II conditions are favorable enough
second growth will be made to give
a light crop.
When seed production is the aim Of
alfalfa growing. a light hay crop is
usually cut very early, before the
/ plants are in bloom and the second
| crop is then the larger and sets seed
| freely With alfalfa seed at its pres.
| ent price, seed production on the dry
lands is much more profitable than
the hay crop unless hay is very scarce
/ and high priced After the second
/ year field may be disked and har.
rowed with impunity without injuring
| the plants so that II is quite possible
| to materially aid in the conservation
Of soil moisture and alfalfa fields even
| II the ground is thickly covered with
plants. II has been found profitable
to SOW alfalfa in rows and cultivate
| II from time TO time and even to grow
a wheat crop in alternate years with
out injuring the alfalfa. which would
yield fair crops Of hay during the al
ternate years. II is reasonable to be
lieve that good results will follow
attempts to grow alfalfa as an inter
titled crop.

WAYS OF DESToYING STUMPs

Burning Also Good.

Is there any way to kill stumps and

ering all over the land. They vary in
size from six to eighteen inches in
diameter. ! thought of boring holes
in them and filling same with poison
and corking them up again. Will this
prove satisfactory. or is there any bet

Answer-Best to destroy the stump
while you are about IL. A stick OF
dynamite or a stump puller will dc
this work most quickly and cleanly
II you wish a milder treatment, salt
peter has been recommended One
subscriber who practices this method
gives the following directions: "Ir

couple Of ounces of saltpeter into this
hole, fill with water. and plug uI
