Churchill Kissed the Stone.

Winston Churchill has never been
accused of being deficient in the mat
ter of barney, although he canno:
perhaps be said to emulate Lloyd
George In that respect. 1t would
seem, however, that he has his
doubts on the subject; at all events
he recently paid visit to Barney cas-
tie, near Cork, and went through the
ceremony of kissing the Blarney stone,
presumably in the hope OF renewing
his stock.
The stone rests outside, a few feet
below the top of the tower, and to
kiss it is attended with some risk.
1t is necessary for the person doing so
to get down head foremost, while a
man behind the parapet holds his
ankles to prevent him from falling to
the ground.
Mr.. Churchill fully entered into
the spirit of the enterprise Remov-
ing his lat, he got over the parapet
and hung head downward, with Sir
James Long holding his legs In this
position the first lord planted his lips
on the stone, and his feat was loudly
cheered-New York Sun.

Fertilizer for Alfalfa,

From my experience horse manure
is the best thing for alfalfa, but don't
advise anyone to put it on the year he
sows, says the Farmer. The year be-
fore is best, or the year after will do. Il
manure is applied when seed is sown II
will cause more filth to come and
smother out the young alfalfa plant
which is very delicate the first year.
After that it will take care of itself
Another fault with manure is in most
cases there is plenty of timothy seed
in it, and the consequence is you will
have a good stand Of timothy. From
what have used of alfalfa, no farmer
can AFFORD to do without it, for it can
be grown in this state, and why not
try it? If you do fail sometimes. and
the seed comes very high, when you
do get good stand it is fortune IL
