Mr.. Gormon received two letters
from Hiatt yesterday, one written on

A Doctor of Dancing.

In France during the reign of Louis
XIV. dancing took very prominent
position among court festivities, and
many members of the royal family took
part in the complex ballets of the time.
Louis himself, no mean performer. took
lessons for twenty years from Beau
champs. who, was called the father Of
all dancing masters and upon whom
the king conferred the title doctor as
a special mark of favor. Beauchamps
had the honor of appearing as partner
with the king in the minuet. a dance
which was introduced in 1850 in
France. and no court ball was opened
in Europe for century and q half
without 1t. About the year 1861 a
royal academy of dancing was formed
under the auspices Of Beauchamps,

down the weeds. Second, the red
clover is sure to grow and / always
find it helps to shade the ground for
the young alfalfa plants and makes
a good thick stand to help shade the
ground during the dry time we al
most always get in July and August.
THE first crop of alfalfa does not
get very thick, but by having the
clover with it we get a good crop of
hay. The second crop is light and
the third a good heavy one, as the
clover comes on for second crop by
that The second year we have the
same result, and the third year the
clover is all gone and the alfalfa is
strong enough to give good crop
alone. 1t does not take any longer to
NOW good crop than II does light
one and takes no more time to rake
it. We can all we'll afford to handle
1t, as we get about twice es much
and the hay is almost as good mixed
as the pure alfalfa would be.
IF you have never raised alfalfa,
1t is best to inoculate the seed. This
can be done by sending to the agri-
culture college for the alfalfa culture,
which costs 25 cents. This is enough
for one bushel seed A still better
way Is to get some soil from an al
falfa field and sprinkle 500 pounds
over each acre of your field. This
should be done on a cloudy day or In
the evening. II done when the sun
is hot It is liable to kill the bacteria.
If put on in the evening and dragged
over they will get deep enough in the
ground by morning TO protect them
selves from the suns rays. II you
cannot get soil from an alfalfa field,
and can find sweet clover patch
where you can get the soil, II is just
as good, because the bacteria is the
same as on alfalfa. Some people SOW
sweet clover to inoculate the soil,
blowing ii under when II has good
start, and then SOW their alfalfa. This
is a good plan when the soil is sandy
and rather light. Sweet clover will
grow where nothing else will. Sandy
soil can be built up in that way so
that alfalfa will grow. 1t does well,
because the ground is inoculated and
it has the sweet clover to feed upon
until it gets a good root. when 1t
will grow if the soil is not too poor
and is not acid.
1T is well to use lime on all alfalfa
fields where there is no lime in the
soil. Sandy land is usually deficient
in lime. You can make no mistake
even if you use lime on all soils"

BATTLE HEAT IS REAL
SOLDIERS PERSPIRE AFTER
FIGHT IN ZERO WEATHER.
Captain Of Confederate Cavalry Tells
Of Experience He Had In the
shenandoah Valley During
the Civil War.

The expression, "the heat of bat
tle," often used by poets and histo-
rians, Is usually taken in a figurative
sense and supposed to refer not to
actual temperature of the combatants,
but to the intense emotional excite
ment under which they labor, says
the Youths Companion. But vet
eran of the Civil war, who ought to
know, declares that the heat of battle
is an actual bodily heat.
1T is no mere figure of speech"
says Capt Samuel Chapman, who was
a trooper in the battalion of Col. John
S. Mosby, the famous Confederate
cavalry commander. ION the con-
trary, in a hot fight the soldiers are
often almost overpowered by the
sense of oppressive warmth, even in
the coolest weather.
II remember that the second weeR
in January, 1864, was one of the cold
est ever known In northern Virginia.
A deep snow preceded the cold spell.
At that time the Federal troops were
in possession of Harpers Ferry, at the
foot Of the Shenandoah valley. They
had pushed their outposts out upon
the hills known as Loudon Heights,
and Colonel Mosby determined to at
tack and drive in these outposts.
I'VE met at Upperville, 35 miles
south of Loudon Heights, about 8
There were about 200 of us, all warm
ly clothed in heavy underwear, thick
flannel shirts, heavy service trousers,
thick boots and stout leggings.
when we took up the line Of march
over the crusty snow the mercury was
near zero. temperature almost un.
precedented in that country, and a
cold north wind blew in our faces.
I'VE sat a moment, literally frozen,
waiting for the word. Then came the
order, 'Charge!' and with wild yell
we swept down upon the sleeping
enemy's camp. OF course, it was an
uneven fight. Even the best of SOL
diers cannot fight unless in forma-
ton, and these poor fellows, reused
suddenly from dreams by the crack of
the revolver and the yells Of our men,
could make only slight resistance. and
either surrendered or sought safety
in fight.
"As the firing ceased found myself
sitting with my leg flung over the
horn of my saddle and the hot blood
pulsing through my toes. My over
coat was thrown open, my jacket
flung wide, my flannel shirt and un.
dershirt unbuttoned and my bare
breast, wet with sweat, was cooling
in the Icy blast. / was even tanning
my dripping face with my broad-brim-
med SLOUGH hat! Round me others
were doing the same.
And, by actual time, it had been
less than three minutes since Colonel
Mosby had given the order Charge!

ALFALFA is SUCCESS
JOSEPH GERBER OF FREMONT
ENTHUSIASTIC OVER CROP.
Estimates That His Land Is Making
Returns Of 500 an Acre on AlfaI-
fa-Gives Pointers on Planting.

Among the successful alfalfa grow
ers in western Michigan is Joseph
Gerber, the Fremont banker, farmer
and generol booster. He now has
twenty acres given over to alfalfa
and he figures that the land Is max
ing annual returns at the rate of 500
an acre. He figures this way. The
average yield per acre Is five tons
from three cuttings, although he some
times gets as high as seven tons.
Each ton for feeding purposes, and
Mr.. Gerber has a fine Holstein herd,
Is worth as much as a ton OF wheat
bran, which now costs better than
$40. When he gets seven tons to the
acre his return amounts to $40. The
average, however, is 500. Next to
fruit growing, alfalfa raising is the
most profitable of the farm activities,
acre for acre, according to Mr.. Ger
Der.
When recently asked about how to
grow alfalfa he spoke as follows:
Select a good piece Of ground that
is well drained, pillow deeply In the
fall, and In the spring fit up as good
as you can, making a good seed bed.
The land should be lined. II you can
get ground limestone, use two or three
tons per acre. Burned lime may be
used. say one ton per acre. Agricul-
tural lime is the easiest to apply and
gives quicker results than the ground
limestone.
After applying the lime, harrow It
