BEST TIME TO sow ALFALFA
When Done In Spring There Is Dan-

Before Well Established.
RY G. II. ALEORDN

The best time to sow alfalfa In the
larger part of the south is in the fall,
say September. The main danger of
sowing alfalfa In the spring is that
in some sections Of crab grass and
weeds crowd!ng out the alfalfa before
it becomes we'll established.
The land should be very rich
thoroughly pulverized for several
inches deep, and well drained. Plow
the land from 80 to 60 days before
planting time Allow the land to set
tie and then make good seed bed
with such implements as disk har.
rows, section steel harrows or other
pulverizing tools.
Sow about 80 pounds of seed per
acre and cover lightly. The main
object is to get very thick stand.
The alfalfa may be moved several
times during the fall and winter to
make 1t stool out. 1t Is necessary
to have q solid mat on the soil in the
spring before the weeds and grass
come up,
Burr clover should also be sown in
September. This clover will do well
on nearly any rich. we'll drained land.
The land should be well prepared and
then seeded at the rate Of 10 pounds
per acre Clean seed are preferable
to seed In the burr.
While alfalfa has never succeeded

tional, the largest fat stock show In
the. world, held at Chicago in De-
cember of 1903. In regard to same
we quote the Breeders Gazette issue
of December 8:
"a white-faced champion rose trl-

was a Hereford year. The grand
champion of the show was grade
Hereford; the calf champion was a
Hereford; the Hereford herd was
champion, and the Hereford grades
were champion carlot."
In 1904 we have a continuous repeti-
tion of previous Hereford victories
notably at the st. Louis worlds fair,
where the greatest aggregation OF
show cattle ever seen were on dis
play. At this great show, in each OF
the six different classes for fat
stock, the 'lordly Herefords" won
every first premium and champion
ship, both in the section for grades
and pure breeds, over all the other
breeds. The premier honors won by
the Herefords, over all competing
breeds, for these three successive
years, afford a most impressive OBJ
ject lesson as to their superior merit
and worth.
These champion steers in the grade
classes were nearly all range bred,
being by registered Hereford sires,
and out of grade western cows,

"A little harmless flirting with nice

VERSATILITY IN THE ARMY.

Is there anything that cannot be
done by oftlcers Of the United States
army? And done exceptionally well?
There is nothing. For example, take
Colonel Goethals and watch him con-
struct the Panama Canal with ease
and grace after various civilians had
tried their hands at the job without
achieving any glittering success. Then
take the FIVE bachelor lieutenants at
Fort Scriven, Georgia. who gave
chafing-dish party, the particulars OF
which we find in the Army and Navy
Journal. 1t was surprise party. 1t
was given In the Bachelors Club. The
service publication which makes
known the achievements OF these
heroes Justly remarks that "a great
deal of praise is due the bachelors for
having given such an elaborate party
without the assistance Of the ladies
of the post" says the Chicago News
For example: "The dining-room and
den, in themselves very handsome
were lavishly decorated with carna-
tons and ferns. The beautiful pale
pink flowers were massed in profusion
on the mantel and library table In the
den. In the dining-room large vase,
filled with the same gorgeous flowers
adorned the table. AS souvenir OF
the occasion a large bouquet, tied
with pink tulle, was presented to each
of the young ladies present. A de-
lightful Welsh rabbit was served with
dainty sandwiches, and mild punch
was served during the evening" Is
It not plain that these bachelors are
artists and poets as well as warriors?
What bachelor outside the service
could tie a bow Of pink tulle around
a bouquet? Doubtless, also, any one
of the five, like Cyrano, could compose
a ballade while preparing to transfix
an enemy on the point of his service
sword. Gentlemen. a toast, standing,
to the army men who can concoct a
Welsh rabbit which will not kill either
at close or long range.

SELECT THE RIGHT OFFICER
Some Little Things Members Must
Realize Before Enterprises De-
veiop Strength They Should.

To the officers and Members Of the
Farmers Union:
A week or so ago | emphasized that
the next great sphere Of development
within the Farmers union would be In
the direction of strengthening enter
prises, and of persuading the average
farmer to use business methods, and to
cooperate in distributing and buy
ing, as we'll as producing and selling
agencies.
That era is upon US, To prepare
for It. we must recognize few funda-
mental facts. If we do not, 1t will be
case of waiting several years until
the splendid machinery built up by this
organization is available to bring the
best results for It's individual and col
lective members.
Get the proper officers! Don't judge
the right man by his handshake, the
fact that he will say mean things about
the people you dislike, or by his abil-
ity to put feeling on you, like at a
revival meeting. Choose him for his
fitness for the special job, and try to
find out If he has ever demonstrated It
before. Once you get him In, stick
to him, so long as he does we'll, until
doom cracks. Give him chance, even
II he does make a few minor mis-
takes, or does few things you don't
like. The probability Is, you would
do twice as bad in his shoes.
If the thing falls through-go at 1t
again! Try hard enough, and you can
easily number the private enterprises
that have failed. But that didn't deter
the men who made the failures. or 9th
er men, from starting over again. II
your manager, or leader, proves crook.
ed-turn him out and get another!
Don't cut off your nose to spite your
face, just because Of one or more
scoundrels in the world.
Judas betrayed Christ, but today the
Christian religion is conquering the
world.
Benedict Arnold sold out to the Brit.
ish, but George Washington and the
cause of freedom triumphed
There is no use on earth to start
an enterprise, with burst of enthusi-
asm, then fail to patronize 1t. or hold
its officers to strict accounting
You'd better not begin enterprises
Of any nature. unless you're prepared
to stick to them, to tide them over the
rough places that come to every bust.
ness and all men, and to cleave to
them, as man promises to cleave to
his wife, for better or worse
These are few Of the principles
that get down to the root OF things.
Since we are to develop into a great
business organization, we might as
we'll begin learning them by heart,
without waiting 70 have them pounded
into us by bitter and costly expert.

GOOD SEED AND LIVE STOCK
Wis.,, Form Association for Their
Mutual Benefit.

The farmers and stock breeders liv-
ing near Beaver Dam, Wis, are CO.
operating in very effective and sat
isfactory. manner in the sale of pure
bred grains and pure bred live stock.
The secretary of this popular coop
erative selling organization is Henry
E. Kruger of Beaver Dam, Wis.
The association was organized for
the purpose of disseminating choice
varieties of seed and live stock and Is
auxiliary to the state association.
which has won for itself such an ex-
tended and enviable reputation.
Every farm operated by a member
OF this organization is inspected an
nually by an officer appointed by the
state civil service commission and any
grain or seeds containing seeds or
noxious weeds is carefully guarded
against. All seeds offered for sale
are tested by the seed inspector at
the state experiment station.
All varieties of seed offered for sale
by the members of this association
have been carefully tested for years
and improved by careful selection and
cultivation and can therefore be re-
lied upon
The Wisconsin agricultural expert
ment station has rendered the state
and nation excellent service In this re-
spect and has proved to be the great
est factor for the improvement of
both yield and quality of Wisconsin
grains and forage plants. To such as
sociations as the above is due the
credit for Wisconsin's position as Sec
ond to none in the world as a seed
grain center.
The four-page leaflet (3x6) issued
by the Beaver Dam club contains the
names of members having grain or
live stock for sale and the number of
bushels of each kind of seed and the
number of head of registered breeds
of live stock.
This leafet. costing not more than
50 per thousand, has doubtless been
distributed by each member having
anything to sell and contains offers as
follows:
The numbers in parentheses indi-
cate the number of men having the
variety Of seed or breed of live stock
for sale. vic:

There should be similar organiza-
tion to the above in each county In
Illinois among the farmers.
1t is only necessary to call the at
tention of farmers who breed pure
bred live stock and good seed to the
advantage of the line Of cooperation
referred to above to ensure the forma-
tion of a similar organization in each
county Of Illinois.
