A Churchly Unification.

The wisdom of this advice was rec
ognized Immediately and Mr.. Meyer OF
the Free Church council proceeded to
open up communication with the Arch
bishop of Canterbury. the chief rabbi
and the Catholic Archbishop of West
minister 1t would be one Of the most
delightful Of the bi-products of Presi-
dents Taft's initiative If he could have
succeeded on this supremely important
point in unifying British christiandom
on SO wide a basis as to include the
Jews.
The greatest satisfaction is express
ed here by those who know him at the
news that J. Brown Scott, formerly one
of the American delegation to The
Hague conference, has been appointed
permanent secretary. that is to say the
executive of the administrative Office of
the Carnegie endowment for interna-
ingtional peace. had the pleasure of
seeing Mr. Scott almost daily during all
the critical times Of the last Hague con-
ference, and in common with all those
who worked in the cause of peace and
arbitration / formed the highest idea
of his grim tenacity of purpose, his
clear grasp of fundamentals and his
tireless industry.

1911 will set new record in the sell

homes.
The tendency this year is not at
all towards inflated values nor toward
abnormal conditions" said Mr.. Zeigen.
THE people seem to realize that IL
Is better to buy good moderate-priced
houses, IL they must pay for them on
the installment plan. than To buy high
priced dwellings and lose them before
they are half paid for. In other words,
the people are growing more conserva-
tive.
I'VE sold more than $50 houses the
past year, and this year expect TO
double that record. We are reorgan-

SOILS FOR ALFALFA
Two Methods of incubation Civ
en- by Texas Station.
First Is to Scatter Soil From Old A.
falfa Field and Then Seed In
Usual Way-Other Consists
Of Use of Bacteria.

DR.. G. S. Traps, sttae chemist o
Texas at the A. and NJ. college, says
there are two methods of inoculating
soils for alfalfa.
The first method consists of scat
tering 200 to 800 pounds per acre OF
soil from an old alfalfa field and har-
rowing 1t in. The seeding is then
proceeded with in the usual way.
This method has been used very ex-
tensfvely and with good results. The
soil from the old alfalfa field con-
tans thousands of bacteria which live
upon the roots of the alfalfa and en-
able 1t to secure nitrogen from the
air, and when the soil is narrowed in
the new land the bacteria are intro
duced into it There are several dis
advantages connected with the use OF
soil. The transportation charges may
be considerable and the soil may carry
the seed Of various weeds of dodder
and the spores of injurious fungi
The second method of inoculating
consists in the use Of cultures of bac-
terra. These cultures are allowed to
multiply in suitable liquid and eth
er applied directly to the seed or in
oculated into the soil and the soil ap-
piled. The cultures placed upon the
market have not formerly been sue
cessful, but they appear to be of much
better quality at present. These cul-
lures are prepared by the United
States department of agriculture at
Washington and by several CONNER
cial concerns.
Besides the bacteria referred to
above alfalfa requires a soil that is
properly drained and also should be
well supplied with lime. The alfalfa
will not do well unless an abundance
OF lime Is present, and If the lime is
not naturally contained in the soil 1t
must be added
In a large number of experiments
carried out in New York it was found
that successful stands of alfalfa were
secured in two out of five cases in |
which lime was applied at the rate
of $500 pounds per acre When 200 |
to 300 pounds of old alfalfa soil per |
acre was used together with the lime |
secured
Experiments Of the New Jersey sta
ton show that the inoculating ma
terial referred to above contained |
large numbers of vigorous bacteria,
but not capable of serving any useful |
purpose on land If deficient in lime.
Their experiments show that On land
properly drained and properly sup
piled with moisture. lime, phosphates
and potash these commercial cultures
are capable Of increasing the yield of
such leguminous crops as had not
been previously grown on the land.
Where the alfalfa or other legumin-
GUS crops have been previously grown
the germs are usually present.

MORE BEEF CATTLE NEEDED
South is Depending Too Much on
Western Packers to Furnish Meat
Much Pasturage Idle.

In spite of the fact that the south
consumes more beef every year, the
farmers of that section are showing
little inclination to grow more of a
supply. The south is depending too
much on the western packers to fur
nish their beef. says the Rural New
Yorker. The southern states should
raise more beef cattle than they need;
they have unlimited ranges which
could be made productive if proper at
tention was given them in installing
the right kind Of grasses The land
could be made to grow ten times what
it does now and become more fertile
all the time. Good cattle need good
pasturage. and good pasturage can be
desert barrens.
Fever ticks must be eradicated and
the government is ready at all times
to furnish experts to assist the land
and cattle owners in getting rid of this
curse. The keeping of more and bet
ter live stock on the farm promotes
greater interest In farm life The
tendency of the boys and the girls, the
young men and young women to leave
the farm is generally regretted Give
them more interest in cattle raising,
in improving the breeds at home. in
having live stock to sell every year,
stock that are good to look at and sell /
high. and they will keep up their love
for home and not wish to leave. I
Money counts on the farm and moth. /
ing brings in better returns than good /
fat cattle. No system of agriculture
can be permanent unless the raising /
of live stock. especially of cattle and
hogs, is given proper place. This is
essentially true of the south.
