Taking Care Of the Alfalfa Seed.

Until it is threshed alfalfa seed
should be stacked in a very dry
place which may be kept free from
mice and rats. 1t is believed by some
growers, however, that mice and rats
will not touch alfalfa seed provid-
ed they have free access to other
grain. The seed should be cleaned
with a good tanning mill before sell
ling and all light seed, dirt and
weed seed removed so far as pos
sible. This extra work is usually
well repaid in the better price re-
ceived for the seed. If the alfalfa is
green or damp when threshed, 1T is
better to spread the seed eighteen
or twenty inches deep on tight
floor in a dry place and shovel IT
over once or twice to dry it before
cleaning and sacking it.
Prime alfalfa seed should have
bright, clear, light golden or
slightly greenish color. Seed which
has been bleached in the field will
be darker while heated seed will
have a brownish, dead color indicat-
ing its lack of vitality. From the
growers standpoint, the best time
to sell the seed will be when the
price is highest. Prime seed usual
ly sells at high price early in the
fall. when there is apt to be short
age of seed for fall sowing and
again early in the spring, about
March list. seed always brings the
highest price here in Colorado de-
pending largely upon the supply
and demand.
Alfalfa seed retains its vitality
several years, if carefully stored
and saved and it may often be to
the interest of the grower, when the
seed is plentiful and the price low,
to hold it back for better market.
Aside from its use for sowing,
alfalfa has standard market val
ue in Europe for dyeing purposes.
for it is used in the printing of &C
ton fabrics and also in putting the
finishing lustre on seal skin furs.
Large quantities of seed have been
exported from this country to supply
the foreign demand and one time
Colorado sent over ninety cars
for this purpose. For different
years and in different parts of the
country. the price ranges from ten
to twenty cents pound. A bushel
of alfalfa seed weighs sixty pounds.
Three to four bushels of good seed
to the acre is a profitable crop but
We have a man in Crowley county,
Colorado, who has turned off twenty
bushels to the acre. The average
crop in the more favored regions
ranges from eight to ten bushels.
A yield of less than two bushels is
an improbable crop and no one
will take the trouble TO thresh such
yield but will feed it to the stock.

Facts About Mt Rainier, Which Taft
Will Scale.

Mt. Rainier is an extinct volcano IA
1863 feet above sea level, is approx
mately IS miles square at the base;
forms Rainier National Park, set aside
as such by act of congress, 1899; sit
uated in Cascade range of mountains
in the state of Washington. 1t was
recognized and worshiped as a God by
all the Indians in the northwest within
whose vision it's snow-capped peak
came.
1t is famed for its great glaciers and
wonderful wales and flower carpeted
meadows third of the way up its
slopes and from which its massive snow.
white peak rises.
Paradise valley, one of the most beau
tiful of these natural parks, and the
one which Taft will visit, was as far
back as Indian legends extend revered
as sanctuary. No Indian, whether
with friend or foe, ever carried his
arms within it.
Called Tacoma, "The Big Snow" by
the Indians and named Rainier after
the British admiral, Peter Rainier, by
Admiral Vancouver, discoverer OF
Puget Sound. ~'e

PRESIDENT TAFT IN KANSAS
Warning Factions in Republican Party
Bury the Ratchet for the Occasion.

Baldwin,, Kan.-The warning repub-

Ratchet Sunday and walked side by side
to pay honor to President Taft. Gov.
Stubs, who is generally conceded to be-
long to the "insurgent faction, wei
coined Mr.. Taft with the hope that the
state, without regard to church, party
or faction, would extend the most royal
reception ever given a president of the
United States.
Republican State Chairman Dolley,
who holds Office under Governor Stubs,
and Republican National Committee
man Mulvane united in telling Presi
dent Taft that the Kansas delegation
to the next national convention would
be solidly for him.
United States Senators Curtis and
Bristow, the one a regular, the other a
leader of the progressive, rode side by
side in the tonneau of the automobile
over the Kansas countryside, and sat
on the same platform to pay honor to
the chief executive.
