such a number is promised The
lamb clubs of Tennessee, notably the
one at Goodlettsville, have proved
very successful in this work.
The same organization can also be
used in disposing of the wool.
In countries where economy in farm
management has been studied long
time, the sheep is considered to be
necessary in utilizing vegetation on
such waste lands as are not wet or
marshy. But the sheep can hold its
place on high-priced land as a meat

advantages. First, the lambs mature
very rapidly. being marketable at
four months Of age or later, accord
ing to breeding and feeding. This is
an economy because a larger proper
ton of the total feed goes into in
crease of weight than in slower grow
ing animals. Second, the sheep con-
sumes a greater variety of plants
than do other animals. Many OF such
plants are detrimental to pastures and
would otherwise require hand labor
TO hold them in check. Third, grain

recovered by sheep. These facts

Compared with hogs the sheep has
an advantage in the wider variety of
materials it consumes. Being
ruminant 1t make it's gain with
minimum Of grain and expensive con.
centrates. This is especially impor-
tant on those kinds of lands that are
better adapted to the production Of
forage crops than to grain growing.

culent roots, has largely solved the
question of food supply for this ami
NAL by providing it with an abundance
easily accessible both in winter and in
summer. Truly the conditions of the
alfalfa field are such as to render life
easy for the gopher tribe. Not only
does the animal injure alfalfa by
actual consumption of the roots, but
by covering up a considerable portion
sometimes go per cent? of the area
badly infested, and by rendering the
crop in fields so infested difficult to
harvest. OF the many methods Of
combating these animals, poisoning
has been found at once the quickest
and most efficient. This is done by
putting carbon bisulphid into the bur-
row and closing the burrow at once.
The fluid may be poured into the bur-
row directly from the bottle Tan ounce

cotton saturated and rolled into the
hole. and the opening closed i'm.

PROPER TIME TO CUT GRASS
Haste Makes Waste When Crop 10
Hurried to Barn Not Fully Cured
-Hurrying Doesn't Pay.

AS to the best time for cutting
grass, It does not pay to be In too
much of hurry. When the grass Is
young and tender and seemingly sue
culent in the fresh state. it is harder
to cure, dries and shrinks more and
has not nearly the food value OF the
more mature crop.
While the opposite extreme should
be avoided, cutting before the seed is
so ripe as to scatter. there is much
more nourishment in the matured
stalk; and one farmer who was COM
plimented for bringing his cattle
through the winter on a minimum
amount of grain and yet keeping them
in good flesh attributes his success
largely to this fact.
Haste makes waste when the crop
is hurried to the barn not fully cured.
Hay cut green requires more thorough
drying than that almost overripe. II
the season is a wet one hay can be
mown and taken In the same day
when a pleasant day comes, even
without a tedder, II matured

AffectatIona

The futurist goes in for weird ef-
fects in art, in music, in poetry and
in dress, but he has only recently
'broken out" in philosophy. Signor
Marinetti, who is said to be the lead
ing futurist poet, has been expound-
ing futurist manifestoes in London.
Disappointment has been expressed
that he does not wear futurist clothes
he is ever seen in irreproachable
dress most suitable to the occasion
and yet possibly this is the effect Of
his career, for he has the reputation
of being one of the best Of Sicilian
actors and orators. The following
are some of Marinetti's dicta, cpl
grams from one of his addresses.
Woman is an obsession.
Love has lost its absolute value.
Men only love women who are ex-
travagant.
Futurism is based on the develop
ment of sensibility.
The fanatic is the person who of
fers today what will be the platitude
of tomorrow, and so is the futurist.
Such is progress.
Poetry is no longer in favor. Why?
Because it does not deal with life
as it is. 1t is like a stagecoach lum-
bering along when motor cars and
aeroplanes dash by at lightning
speed.

Alfalfa Pays.

In recent address, Hon. A. P.
Grout, the President of the National
Alfalfa Growers Association, stated
that one acre of alfalfa is equal to
four acres of average corn. He said:
1T never occurred to me until three
or four months ago to make com
parison and reduce the value of an
acre of corn and alfalfa to figures.
This season put at least five tons of
alfalfa to the acre into my barn, and
it is worth $50 ton. After this hay
was carefully put into my barn, some
of my neighbors began to haul corn
to the elevator at 80 cents per bush
ell, and then, for the first time. it &C.
CURED to me that if | had sold my
alfalfa for 500 and put that amount,
500 into corn, it would have given
me 300 bushels. Now this land on
which am growing alfalfa would be
able, under the best conditions to
grow 80 or 100 bushels, but am not
growing any such amount. If | get
rs bushels per acre, l am doing very
well. This would mean that one
acre Of alfalfa is worth two and one
half acres of corn, and if didn't get
more than 80 bushels, land the aver
age is not fifty bushels in our coun-
try then one acre of alfalfa is equal
to four acres of corn. There is an
incentive in growing alfalfa. Pen

RECOGNIZES 40 MOST lmPoR.
TANT ENEMY or AGRICULTURE.
Natural Food Of Rodent Consists OF
succuIent Roots and Such Green
Vegetation as Can Be Dragged
Into the Burrow.

No other animal attacking the un'
derground parts OF alfalfa can equal
or even closely approach the gopher
in destructiveness. The pocket gopher
occurs In almost all sections and is
everywhere recognized as an impor-
tant enemy of agriculture on account
of its habits of feeding on cultivated
pasture grasses and grains. They are
injurious in fields of grain which they
destroy In great quantities. In cult
waited fields they are harmful on ac-
count of the large mounds which they
throw up in digging their burrows.
The plains pocket gopher, which
holds sway on the Western plains, and
the prairie pocket gopher which Is to
be found in almost all parts Of the
country, are very similar In habits,
and the methods of combating one
form will also serve for the other.
The prairie gopher is short and
stocky, showing an average length OF
about ten inches from the tip Of its
nose to the end OF its stubby, hairless
tail. Its body is covered with silky
dark-brown hair, its eyes are small
and well protected by fur, and its ears
are so short as hardly to cause a rip
pie in the smoothlying fur of the
head. Its front feet are furnished
with long, strong claws and otherwise
modified for digging In fact, the
whole structure of the animal fits it
for its subterranean existence.
Except for possible brief excursions
at periods of migrating, the gopher
passes practically its entire life in it's
burrows. Indeed, it is a rare occur
renee to find one abroad on any err
rand. They appear to live solitary.
each individual gopher apparently
bent on having the world to himself,
and each digging and taking care of
his own dwelling. Doubtless where
fields are so badly infested that tun-
nels cross and recross, more than one
gopher may be trapped in the same
runway. The female produces but one
litter of young per year. yet because
of her sheltered life raises enough of
them that the species is constantly in
creasing.

sists of succulent roots and such green
vegetation as can be dragged from the

SEEKING TO WOUND MEN
RATHER THAN KILL THEM.

Reports from Europe say that
there is a marked increase shown in
the percentage of wo Inded over
killed, of those struck by bullets.
This is due to the fact that mill.
tary experts. in devising the infan-
try small arms, have been striving
for years for a wespon that will
wound man rather than kill him.
This is not due altogether to hu-
manitarian reasons. The experts
figure that wounded man is better
than a dead man, because a man
wounded generally requires another
ma1 to lock after him, thus taking
two men out Of the fight for a time
at least. Further the wounded man
makes the hospital burden heavier,
and as the merciful feelings of ma
tio1s require an army to look after
its wounded to the Limit of its pow
er, the army has to carry this bur-
den as long ss it can stagger under
it.
On the other hand, a soldier who
Is XII ed is no more loss to the
army's fighting strength than the
soldier who is wounded, and he makes
NJ further demands on it. Any army
does not even bury its dead, unless
it is convenient.
Hence it is that the new weapons
will drill hole through man and
put him out of the fight, but it will
not often k Il him, unless the bullet
touches vital spot. Iudeed, recoy-
cry is said t. be rather rapid.
The new weapons are of tremend-
Gus force. however. Some of them
have enough velocity. at one mile. to

HAD TO THINK OF OTHERS
English Market Gardener Reminded
That the Law Is Supposed
to Protect All.

England, which has frequent
plaques of wasps and an occasional
oyerproduction of feas, has long
been supposed to be free from flies,
so that it was no special cruelty to
deprive horses of their tails, a use
less appendage, as there are not, as
in America, any flies to brush away.
a recent case in a London court
shows that when the fly has a chance
no such immunity prevails. j. Perry
Bland of SunbuIv-on-the-Tham
complained of "a plague of flies"
against his neighbor, Stanton Yates,
an intensive gardener: The justice
ksaid he was reluctant to interfere
with what appeared to be a profitable
Industry, but that he must grant an
injunction restraining the defend
ant from stacking or depositing ma
nure so as to be a nuisance to the
plaintiff. Defendant testified that
he used about 800 tons of manure
a year making beds for his intensive
gardening. From which it appears
that in England a man may not
Garry on even a necessary and profit
able industry to the injury of his
neighbors.
