Alfalfa Substitute Grown

for alfalfa, which will prove 4 boon to
the entire state especially to dry ranch.
ers, for it grove very prolifcally with

quail Of alfalfa in nutritive qualities,
but requires less attention and yields
more bounteously.
]. q. Byrnes, who owns dry ranch
near Meeker, was in town yesterday
exhibiting winter vetch, mammoth red
clover and alfalfa and showing the con.
trast between the three grasses. The
winter vetch is a trailing, vine.like
plant and the sample shown by Byrnes
was exactly four feet long, several
times the height attained either by al.
falfa or red clover. It is leguminous
plant and makes considerable quaan.

sown with fall rye.
The rayagcs Of the alfalfa weevil In
some sections Of this county, and the
usual scarcity Of hay for range cattle

some other crop in place Of alfalfa. -

THE SERVICE.

Arrange the tea table in the dining
room in the daintiest manner with lace
bordered tea cloth or centrepiece and
doilies; a charming selection for the
color scheme, consisting Of daybreak
carnations, interspersed with feathery
mi.nonette for the floral decoration, with
four candles, fitted in silver candlesticks
and placed at the corners OF the table,
yelled in shades Of delicate pink
At either end Of the table arrange the
bouillon and tea service or the chocolate
and coffee service as the hostess may
prefer These should be under the
charge OF at least four guests. who are
requested ito pour" during the afternoon
and who relieve each other at stated in
tervals, while two or three additional
friends should be asked to assist in the
dining room, thus materially helping out
the waitress in attending TO the guests
wants. In some cases the guests can
do practically ell the waiting and serv-
ing.
Attractively arranged platters Of to-
mato aspic, lettuce. lobster and nut
sandwiches. tiny salad rolls. sailed nuts,
bonbons and small fancy cakes may
also be placed on the table; but II a
salad is served a better plan is to have
It dished in the buffers pantry and three
or four plates brought in by the watt

The hours selected for such an affair
are generally from four to six and the
invitations consist generally of the host

SPACE WELL UTILIZED.

A wooden settle fixed in the angle OF an
alcoye, a low wooden table and an OAK
dresser are also relics from some cottage
and complete a most satisfactory work
room.
Beyond this kitchen is a smaller one
with a sink which puts the usual priml-
tive washing-up arrangement to shame
or zinc, with two great bowls-one Tor
washing and the other for rinsing-and a
large movable tap, letting forth torrents
OF hot or cold water. whichever may be
desired, It has on one side a corrugated
place, which allows the superfluous water
from the wet dishes to drain easily, and
at the other side shelves and plate racks.
A passage between the dining room and
kitchen has been converted into a small
storeroom. with cupboards, shelves and
drawers and a large fiat surface for the
food which is to be taken in or out. One
is scarcely surprised that the German
hausfrau is content to spend the greater
part OF her intelligence and energy amid
such surroundings.

WOMEN POLITICIANS TWO KINDS.
During the autumn and winter months
an immense amount OF work is done by
feminine politicians, who are of two kinds,
those who accept fee for their services

those who have some male relation in
Parliament or anxious TO get there, for
whom they are prepared 70 work whole
heartedly.
Some. a few, work for the pure love OF
the cause, Liberal or Conservative, spend
ing themselves in remote country villages
or in grimy manufacturing towns, or
ganizing and speaking with no hope OF
reward or advertisement. 1t must be con-
fessed that the Liberal grande dame is
more partial TO this spade work than is
her Conservative sister.
Until within the last few years, Wheh
her health became more precarious' Rosa
lind Countess OF Carlisle was one OF the
most indefatigable workers on the Lioer-
