SET ALFALFA BY MACHINERY
Experiments Made In TranspIanting
by Use Of Machine Used for
Tobacco and Tomatoes.

Prof. H. A. Hansen of North Dakota,
who has introduced many hardy
plants from Siberia for the depart
ment of agriculture, among them
hardy strains of alfalfa, has been ex-
perimenting in transplanting the lat
ter with a machine, using one en-
ployed for tobacco, cabbage, cauli-
flower and tomatoes. At five points
in the state he set the plants at the
rate of 5000 an hour. At other points
he set them with a plow. He thinks
this will do away with dodder and in
jury from disking. Some of the Rus
sian alfalfa plants when given room
in the garden had 500 shoots from one
crown. Over 1,200 farmers are CO.
operating with Professor Hansen and
many reports are coming in showing
their remarkable resistance to the
drought of last year.

MEANING OF "A1 HALF MAST"
At First Universal Symbol Was Token
OF Submission and Respect
For Enemy.

Perhaps you have noticed that when
ever prominent person dies, espe'
cia11y If he is connected with the gov"
ernment, the flags on public build
ings are hoisted only part of the way
up, remarks the Toronto Mail and Ex-
press. This is called half mast" Did
you ever stop to think what connec-
ton there could be between a flag
that was not properly hoisted and the
death of great man?
Ever since flags were used in war Il
has been the custom to have the flag
Of the superior or conquering nation
above that of the inferior or vanquisb-
ed. When an army found itself hope
1essly beaten it hauled it's flag dowL
far enough for the flag Of the victors
to be placed above it on the same
pole. This was a token not only Of
submission, but Of respect.
In those days when a famous sol
dier died flags were lowered out Of
respect to his memory. The custom
long ago passed from purely mill
tary usage to public life Of all kinds,
the flag flying at half mast being
sign that the dead man was worthy
of universal respect. The space left
above it is for the flag of the great
conqueorr of all-the angel of death.

FARM NOTES

Peaty soils need fertilizers running
high in potash.
Topping corn serves to materially
reduce the yield
A hive of bees makes delicious
thing to have about.
Early oats almost invariably yield
more heavily than late oats.
The use of a tile under four inches
in diameter is not to be recommended.
There is little practical benefit re-
sulting from the use of mulch with
wheat.
Spraying of potatoes with Bordeaux
mixture is preventive of potato
blight.
Any impervious covering will check

Get that piece ready for alfalfa.
Better double disk it again Just for
good luck.
You cannot keep your farm per-
manently productive without the use
of legumes.
Don't put in the alfalfa seed too
deep; and remember to roll 1t we'll
after sowing.
A barnyard full of manure never
produced big corn crop until 1t was
spread on the field.
Tobacco uses up a large amount of
plant food and for that reason should
be heavily fertilszed.
Now and then old cisterns are used
for silos and make good receptac1es
for preserving silage.
The average acre of corn will yield
ten tons of silage while good field
will yield considerably more.
Running over field with disk
does great deal to restore capillary
activity after land is plowed
Sandy soils are usually deficient In
most of the elements of fertility. Pot
ash Is especially lacking in such soils
Keeping any machine we'll oiled and
in proper repair not only increases eff
ficiency, but decreases the amount oI

amount of fruit usually found in the
stomach of this bird, 1t is surprise
to learn that 1t sometimes does seri-
ous damage to vineyards. Investiga-
tion, however, shows that, as in most
other similar cases, the injury results
only when too many birds gather in

Nearly all the complains against
the quail for eating fruit are that il

In the laboratory investigation Of

of the food, and 81 per cent. vegetable
