Curse Of the Hapsburss."

Franz Josef has been called
"The Emperor of Sorrows"
1.-The curse of the Hapsburgs"
is said by the superstitious to
have followed his kin. The Course
was pronounced by the aged
Countess Carolyn, whose son
was put to death for participat-
ing in the Hungarian uprising.
She called upon heaven and hell
to blast the happiness of Franz
Josef and strike him through
those he loved. Thus he has
been stricken:
His wife, the good Elizabeth"
was assassinated in Switzerland,
His brother, Macmillan, was
executed in Mexico.
His only son. Rudolph, was a
suicide.
His sister-in-law, the Duchess
d'Alencon, was burned to death
in a charity bazaar in Paris.
His favorite grandchild mar
ried against his wishes, and her
love ended in the shooting of her
rival.
And now
His nephew, the Archduke
Franz Ferdinand and his wife,
the Duchess of Hohenberg, have
been assassinated in the capital
of Bohemia.

New Liquor Law Effective.

The new law passed by the re-
cent Legislature regarding the
shipment of liquor into dry ter.
ritory. which went into effect a
few days ago, has generally been
regarded as favorable to the
liquor interests of the State. A
Joker" it is claimed, has been
discovered in the bill which
makes it one of the most drastic
restrictions upon what's pop
ularly termed personal lib
erty," ever written into a liquor
law. Section 3 of the act, which
was H. B. SOC, reads: In any
county, etc., where the sale of
liquor is prohibited, 1T shall be
unlawful for any person to keep,
store or POSSESS any such H.
quors, in any room, building or
structure, other than the private
residence of such person, and
which is not used as a place of
public resort"
AS interpreted by liq2or men
and lawyers, the law clearly
makes it unlawful for citizen
to have any liquor in his possess
ion an any place but his private
residence. 1t means that he can
not keep a bottle at his Office, or
in his hunting lodge or fishing
club. The locker device by
which liquors are kept in the
private lockers of members of
clubs for their own private and
personal refreshment is entirely
unlawful under Section 4 and
the unwary traveller who puts a
flask in his grip, is liable to a
fine of at least $50, unless there
appears on the outside of the
package the name and address,
the consignor and the statement
that the liquors are for the per.
sonal and family use of the con
signee.

To Cure Alfalfa Ray.

The heating and burning of al
falfa hay in the stack may be
avoided by proper curing. Some
times weather conditions make
it almost impossible to put the
hay in the stack in good condi-
ton, but usually the mischief is
done by water in the stem of the
plant, says Professor Leidigh of
the Kansas agricultural college.
A comparison will show why this
water did not readily cure out of
the stems. If a tree is cut down
on a cool, cloudy day, the leaves
remain green and fresh for some
time. They take the water from
the trunk, and pass it off into
the atmosphere. If the wealth
er is reasonably cool for a few
days, the water will all be taken
out of the tree. Now if the tree
is cut down on a hot, sultry day,
the leaves will dry up and fall
off. The water is still in the
trunk of the tree and there is no
way for it to get out quickly. 1t
is the same with alfalfa. If the
sun is 80 hot that the leaves are
quickly shriveled, the stem will
dry out very slowly. Of several
stacks recently burned down, in
every case it seems the cause
seemed to be the improper cur
ing of the hay before soaking.
When it is impossible to wiring
water out of the hay, says Pro-
fessor Leidigh, it is dry enough
to stack. The best way to cure
hay is to rake it into small wind
rows and let it dry out slowly.
If the ground is damp, or if the
air is very moist the windows
must be turned frequently to eX-
pose all the hay to the sun. Hay
often heats in the stack because
it is rained on, or because it alb
serbs moisture from the ground.
This causes a loss of SIS to $40
worth of hay spoiled at the top
and bottom of a 25-foot stack of
alfalfa. This loss may be avoid
ed by stacking on a foundation
OF poles, or under sheds. The
money saved on a few stacks
will pay for the shed.
The proper time to cut the hay
is when it is one-tenth in bloom.
If it has made a rank growth
and is very succulent, in it bet
ter to let it stand a few days
longer before cutting. Then
surplus water in this way is Civ.
