The alfalfa seeding season, which
begins in Michigan in early spring
and continues until early summer,
has been more extensive than in any
previous year. During this time the
Agricultural college has sent out
1928 nitro-inoculating cultures to as
many different farms, where fields of
from one to twenty acres, have been
started. Many fields have been sown
of which the college has no record
The experiment station has distrib-
uted during the year more than $4,000
circulars and bulletins on alfalfa cul-
ture, and the extension department
has organized sixty-six alfalfa clubs,
with a combined membership of $50.
These alfalfa clubs are organized
wherever ten or more farmers agree
to grow one or more acres. The or
ganization of these clubs makes it
possible for a representative of the
college to hold an evening conference
with the alfalfa growers and to go
with them to the farms the next day
to select suitable fields and give spe-
cial instructions for planting, etc.
There clubs are widely distributed
throughout the state, being located
in forty-two counties, eleven of which
are in the upper peninsula.
The alfalfa fields in various parts
of the state which were started in
previous years are reported as doing
we'll and producing quantities of fod-
der, which has no equal in point of
nutritive value and palatibility.
Many fields now being cut for the

seventh or eighth year are giving a
profitable return.
1t will be plain from the above
statements that alfalfa raising in
Michigan is past the experimental
stage and should appeal to every
Michigan stockman as serious eco
nomic proposition. Late summer and
fall is the right time to begin think
ing and planning for the alfalfa field
of the coming year. 1t is then we
can best decide on location and plan
on preparation of the field. Having
decided early to grow alfalfa gives
one chance to watch for good
quality of seed and not be dependent
on the market at seeding time. Then,
too, in thinking about it beforehand
it is almost certain that many points
of information will be picked up
which will be of great advantage
when it comes to the actual field
operations.
The illustration with this article
shows this years first cutting Of al
falfa on an old leveled-down gravel
pit. No other crop could be induced
TO grow here, but owing to the depth
of root the alfalfa plants have grown
and produced a profitable crop Of
fodder
Circulars giving information on
alfalfa Culture" have been widely
distributed by the experiment station,
but there is still a supply, and Cir
culars / and may be secured by
writing to Director r. S. Shaw, East
Lansing, Mich.

The Younu Idea.

There are two kinds Of joints, tho
hinges and the ball-bearing.
Reflex action is the inside eye and
ear. Reflex action controls things
that we do not have to think about,
as talking.
Had we no skin, our clothes would
cause us endless agony.
The stomach is the trunk Of our
body. The stomach contains the liver.
The stomach is south of the lungs,
west of the liver. 1t has three coats.
Without the stomach we should die.

EFFORTS TO FIND BODY
OF H. E. FALLERS FAIL
Widow Gives Up Task and Proceeds
with Application in Court to
Settle Up Estate.

Efforts made all yesterday afternoon to
recover the body of H. E. Fallers were
again unavailing, and Sherman z.
Humphrey, who has kept so persistently
at the task, reached frohcluson that
further efforts were useless and announced
last evening that no further attempts
would be made. Dragging was continued
around the street railway bridge until after
4 o'clock and then Mr.. Humphrey sent the
motor boat ten miles down the river to
examine sandbars and eddies.
The river was rising yesterday afternoon
and the increased volume of water made
some changes in the direction of the cur
rents around the bridge. 1t was found to
be impossible to keep the drag submerged
while going up stream, although weighted
by twenty-five pounds of iron.
Mrs. Fallers, who has been appointed
Administrative of the estate of her hus-
band. filed yesterday In the district court
an inventory of the murdered mans prop
erty. The inventory discloses six certif-
icates Of deposit aggregating. with a
checking account, a total OF $3135, two
notes for $41S, the homestead at 26O1 Third
avenue and the household furniture. The
insurance policies are not listed in the in
ventory. Mrs. Fallers asked for and was
allowed $500 for the maintenance of her
self and children during the year. Mention
Is made OF the estate Of Richard Fallers,
father of the murdered man, who died at
Shenandoah some time ago, leaving his
widow a life interest In his property, which
will then go to the children OF Mr.. Fallers.

sey, candidate for the democratic nomina-
ton for president OF the United States.

fore the convention of the Grain Dealers
