in the Imperial mine of the O'Gara Coal

One of the men killed was a member

neglected forage crop. A systematic
canvas from farm to farm, grange to
grange, and oftentimes from field to
field was made in an effort to
bring to the farmer in his own
home the facts and figures which have
been stored UP in the pamphlets and
archives Of the agricultural schools
and colleges.
Taking part in the campaign, either
in an advisory capacity or as speak
ers, were the following members of
the Agricultural Extension Depart
ment: G. M. Carroll, formerly with
the Crop Improvement Committee; w.
r. Baugham, prominent rancher and
alfalfa grower of Texas; J. E. Wag-
goner, formerly of the Mississippi
Agricultural College; r. W. Lamson
of Iowa; J. e. Buck of Chicago; c. w.
Farr, assistant county superintendent
of Cook County, Illinois: the Hon. G.
H. Afford of Georgia, and c. H. Allen,
a retired banker of Ohio.
That the farmers were ready for
the blessings which alfalfa strews
over a neighborhood which gives it
neighborly welcome, was evidenced
everywhere by the crowds that
greeted the campaigners at every
stop. At no time were any of the
speakers without an encouraging au-
h.
party was obliged to divide, part adj
dressing the school children while
others spoke to the farmers. The ad-
vent of the cortege into community
was made Alfalfa Day in the schools.
In the towns the children paraded out
to meet the autos, singing special al
falfa songs and waving flags. 1t is
estimated that between three and
four hundred farmers in that one
county alone pledged themselves to
make a start with alfalfa and do it
according to the rules laid down by
Federal Expert J. H. Skinner

was credited with raising only 70
acres of alfalfa, but all indications at
there VIII be 10000 acres fourishing
with this legume It was shown that
on the typical sand or clay loans east
of the Mississippi alfalfa could be
raised as easily and as surely as
clover yielding three crops a season
and that it was the greatest plant the
farm world has yet discovered for
Io
storing it up in the soil, thus re-
juvenating run down and over-crop-
ped farms.
The Corn Belt farmer in alarm at
his annually diminishing yields, is
turning to alfalfa as his one great
hone. and the bugle call sounded in
Kent County is re-echoing in the en-
tire eastern states. AS we go to
press, a similar campaign is going Oh
in AlIegan County, Michigan; the To
ledo Commercial Club is about to
wage a powerful alfalfa propaganda
in the ten western counties OF Ohio.
Feelers have been put out by the
Connecticut agriculturists for turning
the entire | H Agricultural Extern
sion Department batteries on that
state for a statewide campaign to in
troduce alfalfa on the seaboard It's
possibilities seem to be unlimited, and
the prospects are that by the nex%
census the leadership in alfalfa acre
age and production may be wrested
from the western states and the
crown placed upon the brow OF the
Nldle west and eastern farmer.

Surgeons Knife Undermine.
Wolgast; Browns Case
Hard to Understand.

ENT HAT a vast change the fight Of
w twelve months has made in the
fortunes OF Wogast and Brown. One
year ago wolgast was the lightweight
champion Of the world, with a bright
chance OF remaining SO for a reasonable
length OF time. Within the past few
months he has not only had his title
wrested from him, but has met COM
plete defeat at the hands Of Tommy
Murphy. The Wisconsin '.wilcat'' win
probably never again be a contender for
his lost title. But, according to w. W.
Naughton, the veteran writer on pugi-
lism. II was not his opponents who de-
feated WoIgast, but the surgeons knife.
The ex-champion has never been right
since he had his appendix removed and,
according to his own statement, he en-
tered the ring with Murphy physically
weary and his right side feeling as tight
as the head OF drum. Wolgast now
recognizes his physical limitations aud
hereafter will engage only in ten'round
bouts,
The case Of Brown Is harder to under
stand A year ago he was considered
one OF the most formidable contenders
for the championship title, All his vic
tories had been won with ease, most OF
them in the style which gave him his
sobriquet. but his two recent defeats at
the hands Of Rivers and Anderson were
stunning blow to his pugilisttc Prov
ess. To again get into the contending
class ne viii have to start all over.
