Alfalfa Seed Raising.

IF we can raise alfalfa seed ii is
mighty good proposition. If you
ship alfalfa seed to Europe the
freight will not eat it up. Alfalfa
seed is worth so much a pound. A
farm thirty miles away from rail-
road is practically as valuable as one
close to the railroad, for a man can
haul $1,000 worth of seed at one
load"
Just at the time alfalfa blossoms
and seed pods begin to form, If there
is plenty Of moisture the second
blossom comes on and the strength
that should go towards amturing the
seeds in the blossoms goes to the
second growth and you get no seed.
All blossoms have to be fortified
in order to make them produce seed.
If we have our alfalfa thick it is just
the top blossoms that get the light
air and sun and most of the blossoms
are not on top. but along the sides
and underneath the spreads of the
plants"
"The biggest yield of seeds have
been secured from thin stands Of al
falfa."
when alfalfa comes in bloom keep
It reasonably dry above the burning
point. Have enough moisture in the
ground so that it will grow slowly.
"Cut It about the time that most
Of he seed pods have urned brown.
Cut it and handle it Just as you
would handle eggs"
Put rows from eighteen to twenty
inches apart in planting for the seed
crop and cultivate. Planting siv in
ehes apart SOW twelve pounds to the
acre"

Rnisinr Henlthr nnirr Cows.

All indication points to the grad
nal elimination of the open market
as source of dairy cows. The traf-
flc in mixers and springers in many
states is already restricted by laws
requiring the ia6"~.'i'n test Of cat
tie entering from other sections. Ev-
en- those dairymen who are not yet
effected by these laws realize the
menancing character Of tuberculosis
and the advantages Of keeping herds
free from it. This rising sentiment
is reflected in a sharp discrimination
against dairy COWS in the open mar
ket unless they show pronounced
milking capacity. There is no dis
position to assume risks on medium
and inferior COWS. Many cows now
40 to the cannery that formerly may
have gone to the country.
The common plan of introducing
fresh cows of unknown origin into
the herd as dry ones are sold is blam-
ed largely for the prevalence of tu-
berculosis in many sections, for it
favors the spread of disease. lnfec-
ton can only be escaped by surround
ing the herd with every possible pre-
caution But COWS must be supplied.
The present discrimination against
cows in the open market suggests
that the time is approaching when
cows of a guaranteed health will
sell at a premium and will be hard
to buy. The dairyman has one re-
liable source Of good sound stock it
will pay carefully to figure on raising
likely heifer calves on skinned milk
as compared with the probable cost
OF good sound cows two years hence.
Some dairymen have already adopted
tho practice of raising their own
heifers fro mthe heaviest mixers.
as by that means they wet better
cows than they find offered for sale.
The new incentive should lead others
10 follow this sensible practice.

statesman

NOldltoludu.
George G. Eagleson of this city,
who has ust returned home after a
winter spent in southern California is
convinced that the land boomers of
the coast all the way from Los An.
geles to Seattle are using the cash
value" order of Governor Hawley and
the state board of equalization to
cub the life out of this state.
Il was standing on the Perkins no.
tel corner in Portland waiting for a
car" Mr. Eagleson said yesterday,
when / over heard a conversation
that opened my eyes to what was go
ing on. A man took to be a real
estate agent was speaking TO a party
of colonists from Michigan. He had
evidently been showing them some
lots. They announced that they in
tended to return 70 their home in
Michigan by way of Idaho and see
What this state had to offer.
Pulls Facts on Them.
The dealer urged them TO steer
clear of Idaho They will tax you
to death in that state he said; and
when they protested not to believe
him he pulled from his pocket pa
per and read to them about the cash
value order issued by the governor
and the state board of equalization
to the county assessors. 1t seemed to
have the desired effect and closed
the argument. took this to be but
a sample of what is being done with
the colonists all along the coast, al
though this was only one specific
case that came under my notice"
Mr.. Eagleson is much wrought up
over the "cash value" order to the
county assessors.
VIII Keep Money Away.
Il am sure" he said, that if I
had money to invest now / would not
invest it in this state under present
unsettled conditions. am satisfied
that little money will come into the
state for investment until this ques-
tion is settled l am not prepared to
say what should be done, but it is
certain that something should be done
and done promptly.
What Idaho needs above every
thing else at this time is capital for
the development of her resources and
anything that tends to drive this
capital away or keep it out is wrong
I am afraid there will be little cap
ital from outside invested in this
state in the next year, or until this
question of taxation is settled"
Helped ny Mild Climate.
Mr. and Mrs. Eagleson spent the
winter in Los Angeles. They went to
the coast in the fall accompanied by
Mr. and Mrs A. H. Eagleson. A. H.
Eagleson suffered from slight
stroke of paralysis a year ago and
the trip to The coast was made to give
him the benefit of the mild southern
California winter.

LONDON, November 10, 1911.
The new cardinal appointed for Great
Britain. Archbishop Bourne Of West
minister is Londoner born and bred.
flee official, in which regard he holds
affinity with the Pope who is a village
postman's son. One person not only fore
saw, but foretold, q great future for the
poor postal officials son. This was his
aunt Miss Bourne, with whom the
future cardinal lived in abject poverty. A
friend who ca led one day on Miss Bourne
found, her making a magnificent piece of
Irish lace, and, in reply to an inquiry. she
said. This is for my little nephew when
he becomes a bishop
AS the English wearer Of the red hat.
DR.. Bourne will prove a worthy successor
to Wiseman. Newman. Manning and
Vaughan. 1t Is somewhat remarkable
that England has had no cardinal since
the death of Cardinal Vaughan in 1908
a state of things which has given conSfd-
cradle dissatisfaction at Westminster. 1t
Is eight years since DR.. Bourne became
Archbishop OF Westminster, yet Vaughan
was created a cardinal after ten months
in office as archbishop. while Wiseman
was only fourteen months archbishop be-
fore he was made cardinal.
Cardinal Bourne is on.y fifty. and Is
therefore, quite young for his position
He is a man of boundless energy, and
possesses extraordinary powers Of or
Of countenance. but kind In disposition,
he will look the part OF cardinal to the
life and perform the duties of his Office
to perfection.
