not permitted to be sold.
In the California-Idaho controversy
regarding the alfalfa quarantine the
shipment of seed from this state to
California was more vital than the
shipping of the hay itself. The hay
is only worth about $5 to 81 per ton
in the fields in this state, while the
seed, graded according to the class,
of course, is many times more valu-
able The raising of alfalfa seed for
sale is a more productive industry
than the raising of alfalfa and the
California quarantine would have In
terfered greatly with the sale of Ida
no alfalfa seed this spring. There
was about 100000 worth of seed con-
tracted for from this state in the dis
tricts which are free from the weevil
and if the California embargo had
been kept on the sale would in all
probability have been prevented.
The greater part of the seed is sold
through the commission houses OF
San Francisco, Los Angeles and the
various smaller towns of the coast
When the California board placed the
quarantine upon Idaho alfalfa 1t ef-
fectually stopped the shipment OF hay
and seed from the state to the big
distributing centers.
When the quarantine was raised
last week about 200 cars OF alfalfa
were started to Los Angeles and many
more cars which have been contracted
for will leave in few days. The SEED
can now be sold excepteing that from
Bear Lake and Oneida counties, ana
the 100000 worth of seed is being
for shipment.

Jews Can Have Christian Names.

ST. PETERSBURG, Mar 6.-The
government has refused the request of
the holy syned that Jews be forbidden
the use of Christian first names. The
syned, which was recently successful
in having Jews prohibited from deal

OF Christian church music, declared
that the use of Christian names by
Jews was blasphemy.

IRON MOUNTAINS In
CALIFORNIA USELESS

Iveyed and mapped, and chain of dis
continuous deposits, six and hall
miles long, is now known to extend
across the summit of the range on
the north limb of the dome. The gov
ernment investigator estimates the
ore to amount to about 60,000,00O tons,
mostly high grade.
Development of these ores depends
upon the opening of the Alaska coal
fields and the cheap transportation OF
that fuel to California ports, where
blast furnaces and steel plants Will be
established.

Through the raising of the quara1i-
Itine placed upon Idaho alfa'fa and
|alfalfa seed by the horticultural COM
mission of California this state will be
permitted to ship to the Golden state
over 5000 cars of alfalfa each year,
besides selling in the neighborhood of
100000 worth of the seed annually.
The quarantine which California
placed upon the Idaho product, which
Acting President Carlyle of the uni
versity was most active in raising, did
not so materially affect the sale of al
|falfa as it interfered with the greater
industry of raising and selling alfalfa
seed, which is much more valuable
than the shipping of hay itself.
The alfalfa weevil is small bug
corresponding to the locust and the
grasshopper, but not nearly so large.
The bug at certain seasons of the year
will start in and within a few days
whole fields of alfalfa will be destroy
ed by it in the same manner that po-
tato bugs ravage the potato patches
of Colorado. The weevil eats at the
bottom of the stock and causes the
standing hay to weaken and at the
first gust of wind or flow of water
where irrigation is necessary, or fall
of rain, the hay falls to the ground
and rots. The weevil for a choice
meal dotes on alfalfa seed and de-
YOURS these with much relish. In
large shipments of seed the weevil
hides himself and is carried from
place to place. Owing to his color
being about the same as the seed he
is not discovered until glass is put
upon him.
Large in Summer Time.
The weevil is on the order of a
animal and grows larger
as the alfalfa ripens. Sometimes
they become as large as an ordinary
fly but this is only in the summer
and in the fields. The young
weevil which stay in the alfalfa seed
are much smaller. If seed infected |
with the weevil is planted, in addi- |
ton to securing a crop of alfalfa the |
farmer secures 4 crop of weevil and |
the only remedy there is to rid the |
fields of the destroyer is to cut the I
crop close and then drag the fields
with a stone boat or some other like |
,ontrivance and kill the weevil upon
he stocks and roots of the hay.
The shipping of the seed is pro-
