The Presidents Personal Trial.

While he is courageously, wisely
firmly dealing with greater and weight
Ter national and international problems
than have confronted most presidents
of the United States, grief and anxiety
come to President Wilson because of
the critical illness of his wife. Ire
mendous events, affecting the whole
universe are transpiring in Europe
calling into service our loftiest states
manship and most skillful diplomacy,
and in meeting these exacting demands
with the shadow of apprehension over
his own household, President Wilson
has earned the confidence and admira-
ton of the whole American people, who
will give him their sincere sympathy
in the hours of sadness and suspense
which this personal affiiction brings.
Sorrow strikes the heart of the ruler
of nation as bitter a blow as it in
f1icts upon the humblest of humanity,
and it becomes the duty Of President
Wilson's advisers now to give him their
complete and whole-hearted support,
to take upon themselves as much of
his burden of affairs of state as they
may, to bring their united patriotism
and craftsmanship to the task of the
nations guidance.
The whole country, meanwhile, will
hope devoutly that the gracious mistress
of the White House may speedily be
restored to health.

Give Your Alfalfa Land
Thorough Preparation
Should Be Well Worked Before Seed
inq-Directions For Soil In
ocuIation.
NICHOLAS SCHMITZ.
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

Alfalfa requires more than any other
farm crop, a thoroughly prepared SEED
bed for successful termination ana
early growth Sowing alfalfa upon
loose, freshly plowed land will, even
under the most ideal weather condi'
tions, result in little beyond dismal
failure.
An ideal seed bed Is one obtained by
blowing the land in the fall, then In
early spring narrowing it until the sur
face is smooth and thoroughly pulvera
lied to a depth of about inches.
Hence, where alfalfa follows small
grain, or q clover or timothy sod, the
land should be plowed as soon as pos
sible after the crop has been removed,
thus allowing plenty of time for at
least one or two good soaking rains to
| settle the soil well before seeding
time. It must be remembered that
frequent surface workings between the
time of blowing and seeding are absoA
| lutely necessary to conserve moisture
kill weeds, and properly pulverize the
| -urface.
Unless the land has grown alfalfa or
sweet clover successfully within the
| past five years, it will be necessary to
lnoculate. The most efficient method
of incubation is to broadcast over the
field from 200 to 500 or more pounds
of soil taken from a successful alfalfa
field or from where sweet clover Is
growing.
The soil for this purpose should be
taken spade deep and applied before
sowing the seed. Usually 1t Is better
to do this just before sowing. but good
results may be expected if applied q
week or two before seeding. At all
times the soil should be narrowed in
Immediately after applying to prevent
the injurious effects of sunlight
few hours exposure may kill ell the
inoculating bacteria
The manner Of applying tho soil de-
ponds largely upon the convenience
with which it can be secured. When
near at hand, in unlimited quantities.
the easiest way of applying is with
the manure spreader Or from the back
of q wagon with shovels. When the
quantity Is limited then scattering by
hand, the same as sowing seed. 10 the
most economical as well as the most
effective way of applying.
There is nothing equal to stable
manure for ferti1izing alfalfa. When
ever possible the land should be well
covered with manure before blowing!
The danger of weeds in most manure
makes applying 1t on top Of the land
after blowing. and working It In I'M
desirable. When manure is not avail
able there should be applied, at the
time of seeding, 300 to 500 pounds OF
acid rock and SO to rs pounds OF
muriate of potash per acre; depending
of course. upon the fertility.
