WHERE VIRGINS FELL DOWN
Employer Now Realizes That There
Are Such Things az Grand
mothers Of Office Boys.

Outside his own cleverness there is
nothing that so delights Mr.. Virgins
as a game of baseball, and when he
gets a chance to exploit the two at
the same time, he may be said to be
the happiest man in the world. Hence
1t was that the other day, when little
red-headed Willie Mulligan, his Office
boy, came shifting into his presence
to ask for the afternoon off that he
might attend his grandmother's flu
neral, Virgins deemed 1t mastery
stroke to answer:
why, certainly, Willie. What's
more, my boy, if you'll wait for me I'll
go with you
"All right, sir" shifted Willie, as he
returned to his desk and waited pa
tiently.
And 10 and behold, poor little Willie
had told the truth, and when he anC

Among the most frequent requests
that go to the United States senate
are those asking some prominent
member to give money to charity or
CARNATIONS. hospitals and other phi
lanthropic undertakings. One day a
charity worker asked Senator Flint
OF California, who is not a wealthy
man, to give a large sum of money
for a free ward in one of the hos
pitfalls.
Il am sorry that l cannot comply
with your request" said the senator
gravely; but, judging from the num-
Der of similar demands that have been
made upon me in the past, have de-
oided that I can promote a greater
charity. The vast amount of money
spent on hospitals In this town con
vinces me that thousands of people
are going to die and be buried with
out flowers. Hereafter, shall devote
my spare money exclusively to send
ing flowers to the dead. The Sun

A LADY LECTURER

and how she is enabled to Withstand

"There is nothing the matter with
my skin, and l thought Cuticura Soap
was only for skin troubles" True, it
is for skin troubles, but its great mis-
sion is to prevent skin troubles. For
more than generation its delicate
emollient and prophylactic properties
have rendered 1t the standard for this
purpose. while its extreme purity and
refreshing fragrance give to it all the
advantages of the best of toilet soaps.

ALFALFA PLANT NEEDS LIME
SOILS That Have Been Irrigated for
Several Years May Be Expected
to Be Found Deficient.

western soils have in, general |
way been classed as soils containing
suiiciency of lime, which is true OF
most of them In their original state.
Consulting chemists on this point in
regard to alfalfa usually lead to very
much qualified, If not diverse opinions.
ana leaves the farmer without much
enlightenment
VI late years the climatic conditions
nave been adverse to alfalfa. late
lrosts and laying down alfalfa for
snort periods having had something
TO do with short crops, but there are
probably some other reasons as well.

should be remedied as a first step.
II thereafter the alfalfa fails to
thrive and yield as heavy crops as
II used to, We must seek the reason.
SOIL that has been irrigated for
zen or twenty years and in which the
water has been carrying the more
soluble elements downward during
.hat period may be expected to be
deficient in such characteristics as
lime near the surface and when wells
or dugouts are dug it will be evident
that this Is no theory, but fact Hard
pans will be encountered of more or
les density at considerable depths, in
lact' In many cases they will not be
reached In visible condition except
where railroad cut or heavy exca-
walton is made. Our present practice
OF leaving alfalfa down about two
years and irrigating plentifully does
not lead TO it's boring very deeply in
search of moisture and as the lime
sinks deeper year by year. It becomes
more and more inaccessible to the
plants. The remedy is not SO simple
as 1t seems. because in the worst af
tected districts it is hard to maintain
paying stand of alfalfa until II
reaches the depth Of the lime deposit
even where a stratum of gravel OF
permanent water does not arrest the
root growth and allow the lime tc
pass entirely beyond its reach.
SO little has been done in the wes-
In working out this problem that anal

terms at least Of gentle satire-said;
we have been discussing conscience,
