In disking alfalfa, the depth must
be regulated in accordance with the
character Of the soil. On loose soils,
1t is better not to disk at all and to
use the smoothing harrow instead. If
disking cuts up the crowns of the
plant 1t is likely to do more harm
than good, and the smoothing harrow
should be used instead

LAST TREASURER OF
C0NFEDERACY IS DEAD.
Miesjah Henry Clark Was Confidential
Clerk TO jefferson Davis.

Micajah Henry Clark OF Clarksville,
Tenn, who died recently, was the con.
fidential clerk Of Jefferson Davis, preSi.
dent Of the Confederate States Of
America, throughout the existence of
that government and the last treasurer
of the Confederacy.
Entering the Confederate service at
the outbreak OF the war, Mr. Clark
was with President Davis until the
cabinet disbanded at Washington, Ga,
after fleeing from the capital at Rich
mond. Besides performing the serv
ices OF q confidential clerk to Mr.. Da-
Wis, Mr. Clark assumed the duties of
treasurer of the Confederacy. With
Golfers empty Of coin and paper cur
rency Of little value, he endeavOred to
furnish the money to finance the shat
tered armies that endeavored to hold
the field against the Union forces.
Last summer the federal government
sent Gailard Hunt OF the Congression'
al library to see Mr.. Clark at his home
in Tennessee and get from him all the
data which he had concerning the Con
federacy. Mr.. Clark turned over to Mr.
Hunt all the relics and information he
possessed except the last official sigma
ture affixed by jefferson Davis. This
signature Mr.. Clark gave to the Con.
federate museum at Richmond.
Mr.. Clark was born in Richmond

In 1861 he married Miss Elizabeth

Of the war he returned to Clarksville
and resumed his business.

SHY AT MONEY TRUST PROBE
The Pujo Resolution ls Sidetracked by
Other Business.

Washington. Feb. 20.-The Pujo mon
ey trust resolution is still resting on a
legislative sidetrack. Representative
Dalzell of Pennsylvania, the ranking
Republican member of the rules COM

the resolution, with the result that 1t
was again shunted aside. Unless time
can be found for its consideration late
today the resolution. owing to special
orders for tomorrow. Thursday and
Friday. must go over until Saturday.
The delay in this case is without sig
nificance so far as the ultimate fate of
the money trust inquiry is concerned.
The resolution will be passed by the
house without opposition in due sea
son. An effort may be made to amend
it, but a canvass OF the house discloses
that a majority favors the resolution
in its present form. Efforts that have
been made to induce the Republican in

History of the Submarine.

The first steps toward the practical
adoption Of submarines in modern
fleets were taken in France. The Gym
note of 1885 was the earliest example.
She was about sixty feet long and
weighed about thirty tons. When sub
merged she had speed of six knots,
and at the surface rather more. This
vessel was followed by the Gustave
Zede in 1891, vessel 14S feet in
length, weighing o65 tons. and having
a speed OF eleven knots at the sur
face and eight knots under water.
simultaneously with the movement
in France attention was directed in the
United States to the performances OF
submarines built by Holland. In 1896
after twenty-one years continuous
work the Plunger was laid down from
Hollands designs under contract
with the navy department. She was
eighty.five feet long. weighed 165 tons
and was propelled at the surface by
steam engines. oil fuel being used in
the boilers.
il is urged that submarine naviga-
ton is still in its infancy, almost un-
tried and that with patience and skill
ful management 1t may soon become
safer, If not more enjoyable. than sur
face navigation. Submarines are vast
ly more dangerous to friends than to
foes. according to the records. They
are still In the class OF scientific toys

many injured.

Germany had her first submarine &C

the U-3 sank in the harbor Of Kiel.
Three officers were lost, and twenty
seven of the crew were saved.
Most OF these fatalities to submarines
might have been prevented had there
been at hand or within reasonable dis
tance the proper appliances for quickly
locating the sunken vessel and raising
her to the surface. Germany had II
suitable salvage plant available. and
it proved its efficiency by raising the

the scene of the disaster. This plant

One Disaster In Italy.

Italy has been fortunate with heI
submarines, as there has been but one
disaster, and that in April. 1909, which
cost eight lives. That accident was
attributed TO careleSsness alone. AT
that time the FoCa was badly damaged
by an explosion OF gasoline fumes.
The little vessel was lying in the bay
Of Naples. and her crew was engaged
in completing the replenishment Of her
fuel supply. In fact, her gasoline
tanks had been actually filed. Petrol
fumes hung about the boat and found
their way into the superstructure
through the open manholes on the
deck. The gas gathered in the super
structure space. and a spark from a
cigarette or from the stack Of pass
ing vessel was all that was needed to
cause the explosion.
Japan, as we'll as England, Germany
and France. has a remarkable tale to
tell of heroism shown by sailors in
submarine accidents. On April Il,
1910, Lieutenant Tsutoma Sakuma and
fourteen sailors smothered when sub
marine No. 6 sank during maneuvers
in Hiroshima bay. The lieutenant left
a record Of the two hours and forty
minutes after his boat was sunk, writ
ten while he was dying. The message
was found in the coming tower Of the
submarine after she had been brought
to the surface. In part the death log
read:
Words of apology fail me for hav-
ing sunk his majesty's submarine No.

fault, but 1t is with pride that | In.

should. with the utmost coolness until
their dying moments.
ut was while making a gasoline

disasters.

Great Britain Has Been Most
Unfortunate While France
Comes Second.

"HE recent wreck Of the British
submarine A-3 of the coast of
the Isle Of Wight recalls the
fact that there has been n great
loss OF life in submarine accidents in
the various navies Of the world in the
last eight years. the number reaching
nearly 200. Not all of the disasters
have been caused by collisions with
other vessels OF the feet or with mer-
chant vessels. but a number have
been due to explosions in the under
water vessels. Great Britain has been
the most unfortunate in submarine
boat accidents, eight having occurred
in as many years. with the loss Of life
placed at sixty. Lives were sacrificed
in all Of these accidents except two.
Most of the British disasters have been
primarily due to gasoline explosions.
France closely follows Great Britain in
the number Of men killed in submarine
disasters. the total for that country be
ing fifty-seven. Russia is next with
forty-four. followed by Japan with fiji
teen. Italy with eight and Germany
with three.
The parent ship Of the British sub
marine fleet. the Hazard, which was
in collision with the A-3 recently, had
an experience once before in a subma
rine accident, though through no fault
of its own. This was back in 1863.
and it was the first grave accident on
account of an explosion OF gasoline
fumes. 1t was on AS Of the British
navy. The little boat had been taking
gasoline aboard, slowing it in the
tanks from the Hazard preliminary to
special run. Nearly two hours after
the work of filing the tanks was done
and while the crew was clearing the
submarine up for the trip a violent
explosion took place within the boat.
