ed over to the sheriff Is quite a VeXa-
tious problem to those politicians who
have been attempting TO solve 1t, and
it is held to be purely politicai ques-
tion all the way round The usua
manner of action in instances where
search warrants are issued from a
justice of the peace office, II is claim
ed, is to have them turned over to
the constable Of that. office and his
deputies
Don't Want Denny 10 DO II.
Constable Denny Jones will have
nothing to do with the serving Of these
warrants" said Judge" Litson yester-
day afternoon. Neither did Pat NAL
10y, county attorney, have anything to
do with the issuance of them"
"Hpw many such warrants were IS
sued ?' was asked of the Judge.
Judge Litson would not name any
specific number. He admitted that "a
large number" had been issued, 1t is
believed that from six to ten such
warrants We're placed in the hands of
Sheriff Mccullough
Judge Ltson was asked who was re-.
sponsible for the warrants, who swore
TO the informations.
Il would not like to say" he re-
sponded
different indiyiduals?"
Yes"
From the most reliable Information
which could be gathered yesterday 1t
is said that r. X. S,sson, preacher, en-
forcement officer and citizen, who has
heretofore interested himself in the
hpoze smashing business. signed his
name to the Information.
No Tip From the Sheriff.
Sheriff Mccullough would give out
no information relative to the war
rants. Late Yesterday afternoon he
stated that some of the warrants
might be served last night He ad-
mitted having quite collection of
them to serve.
The warrants are aimed at persons
engaged in the Illegal barter and sale
of liquor in the city of Tulsa, and are
along the line of those which have
been prosecuted in the county court
from time to time, but from which
few convictions have resulted. 1t is
now doubtful II the county court
would take coSnizance OF informations
filed by Rev. Sisson on account of
failure in prosecutions which have re-
suited from many which he has filed
heretofore.
Judge Litson stated yesterday after
noon that action would also shortly be
brought against the owners of build
ings in which the Illegal sale Of IL
quor is allowed to be conducted.
An Earnest Crusade?
1T is an earnest crusade" said he,
"and | know these suits will be
brought and prosecuted"
He intlmated that such prosecutions
would not come by way Of the county
attorneys office.
Many who thought over the situa
ton yesterday afternoon declared that
1t seemed like plan to catch Sheriff
Mccullough tied up In court work,
load him down with a lot OF warrants
and seek to embarrass him m his wori
and In his chances for reelection as

Value of Alfalfa

The Illinois Alfalfa Growers associ-
alton, is but one year Of age, yet it
has become a hourishing orgaliza-
ton composed OF the best farmers OF
the state-men with progressive ideas
and who practice up-to-date methods
men who know and appreciate the
value Of alfalfa and are anxious that
others may learn to grow it on I'LL
nois land. One OF the speakers at
the recent meeting OF the association
was the president, Hon. A P. Grout,
who. in discussing the subject, said
in part:
After 20 years experience in grow
ing alfalfa, | have come TO the con-
clusion that the average yield per an
mum, under the ordinary or usual
conditions which prevail in central
Illinois, should not be less than five
tons per acre. l have not always
grown this amount, but that was when
was getting experience and learn
ing how. l am doing II now, and
whenever fail it is not the fault OF
the plant, but because I have not
done my part or complied with some
Of the conditions or requirements
which experience has found to be
necessary for It's successful growth.
Last year l harvested more than
five tons per acre from 25 acre field
This same field this year yielded bet,
ter than two tons at the first cut
ting, and between one and a half and
two tons at the second cutting cas-.
fly one and three-quarter tons. This
only makes II necessary to secure one
and one-quarter tons at the next
cutting to make Eve tons for the sea
son.
The value Of alfalfa as a food, in
comparison with other farm crops, IL
not determined by the quantity The
actual food value OF the different
crops Is based on the amount Of the
digestible nutrients, protein, carbo
hydrates and fat contained. The value
per pound assigned for the digestible
food nutrients as the basis Of Calcula
ton by the L. 8. department OF agri
culture are: protein, .067; carbo
hydrates. OO6; Fat, o. These figures
are only relative, as the price OF the
fooc elements very in different sec
lions from year to year.
AS an Illustration we will take the
feeding value Of alfalfa and timothy
hay. based on the amount OF digesti
bic nutrients contained in each, and
calculated from the prices fixed for
the food S.ements, and we have s2o1t
az the value Of one ton OF alfalfa hay
and sos as the value Of one ton OF
timothy.
Again, II We compare the yield POI
acre, the account stands as follows:
Alfalfa, five IONS per acre at $20.lt
