Alfalfa needs n certain kind of bac-
terra in the soil to give the best re-
suits. These bacteria live on the
roots Of the plants, and give off as a
byproduct the nitrogen which the
plant needs. This is an example of
cooperation in nature. In soils where
sweet clover has grown, these bac-
terra are usually present. # they are
not, It is sometimes necessary to get
soil from some field whore alfalfa
is growing. or some sweet clover soil,
and scatter it over the alfalfa patch.

The orchard needs cultivation just
the same MS does the corn crop. DR.
Written, Professor of Horticulture at
the University of Missouri, says It is
a mistake to allow the ground in the
orchard to become caked or hard.
This allows moisture to escape so
the trees can not do their best. Some
legumc crops are good things to grow
in the orchard They keep the ground
loose and increase the fertility.

In the name of the people of
Cairo who have, in silence, breathed

and who have evacuated dust from
their clothing and bodies by the
spadeful. we demand that the City
Of Cairo scrape the barnacles from
the wheels OF the aforesaid elegant
compassionate street flushing ma
chine and make 1t earn its board.
