soLAcE IN HIS MISFORTUNE
Entombed Miner Had at Least Ono
Pleasant Thought After Two
Days Of Suffering.

Miners are among the most heroic
people in the world. Danger Is always
beside them, and they are schooled to
believe that any time they will come
lace to face with death. The result Of
this is that they are humorous In their
boldness.
In one OF the mines Of Pennsylvania
there was a caye.in which Imprisoned
4 miner named Jack Thornton. The
accident happened on Friday after.
noon. and the fellow laborers of the
entombed man set to work at once to
dig him out. 1t was not until Sunday
morning, however, that they reached
his prison chamber. and by this time
they were wondering, whether he had
been suffocated or Starved to death.
One of them stuck his head through
the aperture made by the picks OF

SOWING TWO POUNDS TO ACRE
Practical Dry Farmer, oparatlns Near
lethbrldge, Alberta, Has Sur
prislno Alfalfa Stand.

That alfalfa will grow prolific on
seeding of only two pounds to the acre
Is the opinion Of L. A. Felger. a prac.
tical dry-farmer operating very large
acreage eight miles south of Leth-
bridge, Alberta. The use Of this sur.
prisingly small quantity of seed is in
marked contrast to the opinions OF
many experts who have been making
q study Of alfalfa for many years. in
that opinions as to the quantity Of seed
to be sown have varied from 13 to 20
pounds to the acre.
Mr.. Felger has an excellent stand Of
IL acres. which was seeded with only
four pounds to the acre in May. 1911,
on fall plowing that had been cropped
the year before. His plowing was
done to depth Of five and a half to
six inches. and he believes that II he
had plowed deeper he would have re-
quired less seed. His seed bed was
well prepared and he used a 'two-horse
cultivator four times, and narrowed
early in the spring. He inoculated the
soil with soil from neighboring al.
falfa field. and despite the fact that 1t
was severe winter he noted no loss
through winter killing. He expects
his field will yield two and possibly
three cuttings, but he plans to use a
portion of the field In raising seed.
To prove the success Of his theory
OF planting In rows and using only a
small quantity OF seed to secure a
good stand. Mr.. Felger has sent to the
Lethbridge headquarters of the Inter-
national Dry-Farming congress a
sample dug up on May %. which
shows 15.inch stand and root sys.

to this insect.
