planted.

Caution on Pasturins Alfalfa.

Alfalfa should be pastured with
very great caution. In fact, the
farmer who holds this matchless croI
in proper regard will pasture some
thing else and just use the alfalfa for
hay. But il the alfalfa is to be
pastured about half enough stock
should be kept on 1t to keep the
growth down. BY this method two ol
three cuttings of hay will be obtained
in addition to the pasturage.
Another caution to throw out is tha
it should be allowed to make a goot
start in the spring before the stool
are turned on, and should be allowed
to go in the winter with a good cover
Under no conditions should 1t b,
pastured in cold weather

sions viii Be Re-enseted by
Players at Exposition.

The Pageant of Darkness and Light
is to be the most spectacular feature
of the great Missionary Exposition,
The World in Cincinnati" at Music
Hall, March to April 8. The pur
pose Of the pageant is to set forth the
great historical events of missionary
effort in an instructive and inspiring
way.
II will be probably the greatest spec.

ever seen. In four of the five episodes,
from $50 to 200 people will be on the
platform. More than 5000 persons,
volunteers, are being trained for the
Pageant There will be 1900 i'm the
grand choir alone and another 1.500
for the platform are to serve in relays
on different days. More than 1000
children will take part also. The cos.
tunes and splendid scenery used at
the first presentation of the Pageant
in London, England, have been brought
to Cincinnati for its production.
The FIVE scenes which constitute the
Pageant may be briefly summarized as
follows:
Episode 1.-The North.
The scene represents an Indian
camp in the far Northwest. The CHIEF
and his wife are I'm distress at the loss
Of their little daughter, who strayed
from the line of march three days ago
To the camp comes a band OF Eskimos
for trading purposes. The medicine
man incites the braves to kill them
just as they are about to do so a mis-
sionary enters. He brings the chiefs
little daughter, whom he found stray
ing in the woods. Thus he gains the
chiefs good will and hearing for his
message.
Episode 1.-THE South.
The scene is i'm the outskirts of Ujiji
where Livingstone is resting for
while after long journeyings. His
men are building mission house,
During midday rest Livingstone is full
of thoughts of home. A runner comes

neral procession, leading young WON
an TO the funeral pyre of her husband
Just as the pyre is to be lighted the
Government official strides in with 4
proclamation doing away with the
suttee,' as the rite Of widow burning
was called.
Episode lV.-The West.
The scene is a coral beach in Ha
vail. Behind is the volcano Kilauea.
A wedding group is dsportlng in the
sunshine. The volcano roars, One
recalls the fact that when Pele, the
Goddess of the lake Of fire, is angered
she sends her priest to claim victims
to appease her wrath. The priest Is
seen on the mountainside. He claims
the bridegroom, and a child playing
unconsciously among the flowers. As
he is about TO lead them to their doom,
Queen Papiotlani appears and defes
Pele. The priest curses her She bids
him lead her to the crater, and there
after the fashion of Elijah on Carmel
she taunts and dehes the goddess,
and breaks the power OF Pele for
ever
Episode V.--The Final Procession.
Singing a grand professional, the
great choir, and all who have taken
part in the previous episodes, march
in four different professions down the
aisles of the Pageant Hall, forming N
tableaux on the platform around d
cross, and all bearing golden palm
branches The closing chorus is suns
and at a signal from the drums of tbs
orchestra of 30 pieces, the entire audi
ence rise and sing the long metre dox

The Colonel's statement was issued
from the Outlook offices in the absence
OF Colonel Roosevelt in Boston, in the
form of reply to a petition from
seven western governors, dated Feb
ruary 10, in which they implored him
to express his willingness to accept the
nomination. Following is his reply:
New York, February "a, 1912
Gentlemen: | deeply appreciate
your letter and I realize to the
full the heavy responsibility Il puts
upon me, expressing. as it does, the
carefully considered convictions of the
men elected by popular vote to stand
as the heads of government in their
several states.
Will Accept Nomination..
II absolutely agree with you that
this matter is not one to be decided
with any reference 10 the personal
preferences or interests of any man.
but purely from the standpoint of the
interests Of the people as whole.
Il will accept the nomination for
president If 1t is rendered to me, and
will adhere to this decision until the
convention has expressed it's prefer
ence.
One of the chief principles for
which I have stood and for which
now stand, and which have always
endeavored and always shall endeavor
to reduce to action, is the genuine rule
Of the peoplei and, therefore hope
hat so far as possible the people may
be given the chance, through direct
primaries. to express their preference
as to who shall be the nominee of the
Republican presidential convention
Very truly yours,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT"

my HATS In thes Ring"

Efforts Of Col. Rooseyelt's friends to
induce him to make an earlier decla-
ration OF his attitude on the presden-
tial question had been unavailing. His
laconic remark to friend In Cleve-
land that my hat is In the ring-you
viii have my answer" was the first
real indication that he had In mind an
affirmative answer to the governors
letter.
The News-Herald. [volume] (Hillsboro, Highland Co., Ohio) 1886-1973, 1912-02-29
The governors letter follows:

We. the undersigned Republican
governors. assembled for the purpose
of considering what will best insure
the continuation OF the Republican
party as useful agency of good gov
srnment, declare 1t our belief, after a
careful investigation OF the facts, that
large majority OF the Republican vot-
ers OF the country favor your nomina-
tion, and a large majority of the peo-
pie favor your election, as the next
president of the United States. We
feel that you would be unresponsive
TO plain public duty II you should de-
cline to accept the nomination, COM
Ing as the voluntary expression OF the
wishes OF majority Of the Republican
voters of the United States, through
the action of their delegates in the
next national convention"
