Needles Here Sunday.

The fast aggregation of base ball players from Needles will play their opening game in Kingman Sunday afternoon meeting the local team in what promises to be one of the best ever if the managers of both teams know what they are talking about.
 The Needles team will have the same battery that they had last year, and when you hear the names, Thomp- son and Devine, you know that there will be something doing every second.
 The local team will play about the same as played in the game with Oat- man, though there will probably be couple of new players in the game. The battery will be the same, Arch and Jimmie, and that means lots to those that know the game.
 In order that the Needles team can catch No. 9 home Sunday the game will be called promptly at l:45 r. M.
 On Washington's Birthday, the fast GOldrOad team will be Tn to play thelr first game with Kingman. This team has been re. organized, and from all re. ports, they are stronger than last year, which means that Kingman will have to play ball or take the short end Oi the score. As the Redmen give big dance that night, it is expected that the day will be one Of continual round of pleasure.
 King nan will have base ball team that will be worthy of the name if the people will turn out and support the manag .ment. Up to date there has no, been request of any kind other than attendance, been made for aid and it is hoped that this wilt not be necessary. It is up to you.

The State of Arizona.

At precisely the hour of ten o'clock, Wednesday morning, February l4th, 1912, President Taft affixed his sigma ture to the proclamation making Ari- zona the forty-eight state of the Union. The news was received in Kingman by the firing of forty-elght heavy charges of dynamite and demonstrations of joy throughout the town.
 In the afternoon services in com memoration of the joyful event were held in Elks Opera House, that edifice being crowded by the school children and people of the town. Rev. Clyde Deming offered up patriotic prayer for the success of the new state, and Judge Carl G. Krook and w. E. Nor oney made patriotic addresses. The school children sang patriotic songs, the orchestra played patriotic airs and the whole atmosphere was surcharged with patriotism and good will. Dem- ocratic, republican and socialist vied with each other in making the occasion one of general rejoicing.
 The celebration was under the direct ion of the chairmen of the democratic and republican committees, and Charles J. Hutchison acted as chair, man of the meeting. All the newly elected officers were on the platform
 All over town the general spirit of rejoicing was manifest, and each and all voiced the sentiment that Arizona will become one of the greatest and richest state of our glorious Union.

The owners of automobiles in King man are desrous of building a new road from the valley to Little Mea lows, the present road being al most impossible. They have been circulating subscription list and obtained many money subscriptions for the work. The road is necessity. but we believe that all road work should be surveyed and the road plat. ted, which under the law is neces. sity to make it county highway. The sooner the work of plating the roads and laying them out on good grades the sooner will the people get good roads.

The Santa Fe railroad company has completed it's work of protecting the right bank of the Colorado river at Needles, and now it is up to the river to properly behave itself. If the apron holds the other parts of the right bank will also be protected. but should it fail many residents of the town will be bereft of property. The river has been encroaching on the lands the past ten years to a great ex- tent, many hundreds of feet of the banks being carried down during the floods, while the level of the river has been raised many feet. It is thought that by spreading out the river loses it's force and drops thousands of tons of silt every day, and that sooner or later this part of the river will have to be dred ged out and the channel be- tween the town and Topock straight ened
 A. S. Fox, of Redlands, Cal, who has become interested in Wallapai valley lands, was a Kingman visitor this week. He talked over the proh- able solution of the water problem in the valley with number of the people and it is probable that some concerted action looking to the sinking of deep well will be taken. Mr.. Fox and associates sank hole to the limit of their machine, near Berry, but were still in debris and had to abandon that project. They are now figuring on the bringing in of a standard rig and the sinking of a well to water or to the bedrock. It Is the general impression that artesian water exists in the valley and if such be the case that section of country would be- come the richest in the world.

ence of the farmer in the matter
of the time of harvesting it.
Most of it will probably be har-
vested in September. but it may
be harvested from August 18th.
to Oct. 18th. thus enabling the
farmer to harvest a larger acrea
of it than he could harvest Of any
other hay crops. Lespedeza is
an easy hay to handle. It lends
itself to machine methods.
Sweep rakes a n d stackers are
used in the larger lespedeza fields
hence hand work is reduced ia
minimum
The quality Of lespedeza hay is
excellent. 1t is not inferior to
the best kinds of hay that can be
found on the market alfalfa and
timothy not excepted. 1t is pal
atable and nutritious and is eaten
with no taste. In nutritive value
it stands much above timothy
and close to alfalfa, yet is sup
erior to alfalfa for driving and
working horses because it does
not produce certain unfavorable
effects which alfalfa produces
and with which horsemen are
familiar. For cows and growing
animals it stands close to alfalfa
in nutritive value. O course the
palatability and nutritive value
depends on the purity Of the hay
and the manner in which it is
cured.
That lespedeza is highly priced
by farmers and is a coming hay
for much of Arkansas may be
judged from the rapid increase
in the acreage of Ashley County,
already mentioned, and by the
rapid increase in acreage in soalc
other Counties of the State. Dr.
O. p. Robinson, of Little E~ck,
who harvested six acres Of les-
pedeza last year, will SOW ;l.i.ty
acres this year. DR. j. II. Estes,
of Little. who had six acres last
year, will sow 80 acres this year.
Dickinson Bros, of Little RocE
who harvested two acres in 1910
on their farm at Dermott, and
seven acres in 1911. expect to
SOW $50 acres this Spring. Many
others whose names could be
given have either increased their
acreage or are now preparing to
SOW lespedeza for the first time
on tracts from five acres to sc
acres each. 1t is reported that
hundreds of acres will be sowed
in Phillips County by the larger
planters and inquiries are con.
stantly coming to the writer from
all parts of east and southern
Arkansas concerning this crop
This rapid increase in acreage
is quite as rapid as it ought to bt
for which teSpedeza is easy t
raise aGd is quite as sure ~ any
crop, yet there are something!
about il which each farmer mus
learr By experience and he reeC
not be surprised if he makes some
mistakes the first year. Al
things con ideyed, we may wei
come lespedeza as desirable ad
i, dition to our list of hay plane
and we may be sure that it vii

HAY
FOR ARKANSAS

LeSpeOeZd nay is new candl-
date for public favor. Alfalfa
has been so widely advertised
and so extensively tried that
there is not much that is new to
be said about it. The acreage
has been vastly increased in this
State as shown by the census
figures which give S27S acres in
1910 and nearly 10000 acres in
1910. Lespedeza. however, is
50 new as a hay crop that no CEN
sus figures are obtainable con-
corning it. VS. far as the writer
knows the first lespedeza sown
in Arkansas was sowed by J. D.
Dean of Portland, Ark. in 1908
although considerable wild lespe-
deza had been cut before that
time. From this small beginning
Mr.. Dean increased his acreage
to 300 acres in 1911 and the total
acreage of his County (AshleD
is estimated at 1900 to 1000 acres
in the lat er year, while small
acreages of this crop wers scat
erred over many Counties of the
State.
Lespedeza strata is the botani-
cal name Of this plant but it is
commonly known under the name
o lapan clover or Japanese
ma < ows wild in all the Coun-
i OF the State furnishing much
Sumner pasture on uncultivated
hin iands and on lands where
cultivation has ceased for a few
years |, has commonly be en-
Supposed that it does p@ grow
ral enough for a hay crop, but
this is one of those half truths
that has prevented the introdu
C ion of a valuable new hsy crop.
1t does, indeed, grow too snort
for hay on some poor hill lands,
though even on hill lands with a
favorable season it may make
two tons of hay per acre. On
all, Bottom lands. however, there
is no risk in sowing it as it grows
tall enough for a good crop even
though it is of lower heigh than
alfalfa, red clover or timothy.
1t grows so thick that this COM
pensates for its shortness.
Lespedeza has many incidenta
advantages over other hay crops
so that its yield is far from being
the only thing TO take into con
sderation. 1t can be sowed or
top of winter grain or spring
grain and will make a crop il
the fall of the same year, SO thai
it has become customary to har
vest crop Of oats and a crop Of
lespedeza from the same land il
one season. This is similar t,
the practice of harvesting a crol
of oats and one of cowpeas from
the same land, but there is diff
erence in the fact that lespedeZ;
is sowed in February or Marcl
on top of the oats without prep
aration or covering, wherea
cowpeas are planted in June OF
land that is specially prepared
after the oat harvest, hence il
this matter alone lespedeza i
more convenient than co gpea
and is less expensive to start.
The ease with which lespedez
hay is cured compared with cow
peas, alfalfa or red clover is an
other point in its faver. Il
stems and leaves are so sma
that it is soon cured and there i
less risk of damage from dew ant
rain than in the case of the ha
crops just mentioned.
Another advantage is the ia"
that it will wait on the convent
