These Charts set forth the reasons
why every farmer should grow Alfalfa
By J. f. BUCK,

Department.
Only about 5000, 900 acres Of
alfalfa are grown in the United
States today, as compared with
about 5O.OO0,0 900 acres Of timothy
and clover, 46, 100000 acres of
wheat and more than 10O,OOO,OOO
acres of corn. OF the 100000
acres under alfalfa, only 2fs,OOO
acres of this crop is grown east
of the Mississippi river.
AS you will note by referring to
the chart, nearly 100000 acres
of alfalfa, or one-ffth of the en-
tire area, is grown in the state Of
Kansas alone. In the rank Of
states growing alfalfa, Nebraska
is second, Colorado third, CalifOr.
MIA fourth. The great corn belt
states, such as Iowa, Illinois and
Wisconsin. rank very low in the
production of alfalfa, and it is in
the corn belt states. therefore
that the need for growing alfalfa
is found to be the most urgent.

Examinations for admission to
the Naval Academy are very rigid.
More than one half of the appli-
cants who took the examination
last spring failed to pass. The ap-
plicant, at the time of entrance to
the Academy, which will be in
June, 1914, must not be under six
teen years of age, nor over twenty
years of age.
l am very anxious to give the
young men of my district an OPP
portunity to avail themselves of
this opening, and will take pleas
ure in mailing to any n of them
who desires it a copy of the regu-
lations giving detailed infOrma-
ton relative to the admission of
candidates to the Academy. Ad-
dress your letter to 444 House Of
fee Building, Washington, d. c.
Prospective candidates for ap-
pOintment should communicate
with me at once.

Seek to Solve Mysteries of Grea'
Cave.

Anxious TO determine whether
or not Coronado in his search for
the even cities. DeSOto in his
hunt for gold, or Gabreal when
he passed through the Ozarks had
left behind them clues heretofore
unknown, Barber and Clarence
Kelley of Mansfield entered the
famous old cave north of the city.
Their investigation, however,
proved fruitless and the secrets
believed to be hidden beneath
Mansfield in the unexplored cave
are still reposing deep in the
earth.
The boys entered the cave ear
ly in the morning and at noon
when they emerged from their
search, they reported the quar-
tiers slightly close" for comfort
able travelling. In fact the ex-
plOrers declare hat knee pads
would be fitting paraphernalia
for the Mansfield caves explora-
ton. The lads stated that after
fifty yards of crawling they en-
tered a larger cavern. They wad-
ed in water about three feet deep
for some distance and then re-
turned.
They refused to divulge the ex-
act cause of their retreat without
the knowledge they sought.

Caught a Bad Cold.

Last winter my son caught a
very bad cold and the way he
coughed was something dreadful
writes Mrs. Sarah Il. Duncan, of
Upton, Iowa. "We thought sure
he was going into consumption.
We bought just one bottle of
Chamberlain Cough Remedy and
that m bottle stopped his cough
and cured his cold completely"
