ALFALFA PLANT, SHOWING EXCELLENT
NoDULEs.
members reporting grew total OF
1924 acres, or an average OF Sc acres
each.
For instance twenty years ago al
falfa was practically stranger IN
Wisconsin. but its introduction and
dissemination have gone on at such
rapid pace that it seems safe TO esti-
mate that there are at least 10000
acres now grown in the state.
Ex-Governor Hoard Of Wisconsin
was the first man in his state TO recog-
nize the great Importance OF alfalfa as
a forage plant, and he has grown al
falfa and disseminated knowledge re-
garding it continuously for the past
twenty years. 1t is safe to say that
Mr.. Hoard has grown more alfalfa
than any other man in the state.
Alfalfa is noted for its high feeding
value and the great fondness farm ami
mails have for it Ii belongs to the
lecume family. or leguminosss, TO
which the common red clover belongs.
Alfalfa through its large root growth
exerts a beneficial effect upon the soil
on which il grows and through Its
power 10 feed on the soil elements and
secure moisture al great depth below
the surface is able to stand severe
drouchts and maintain itself upon the
soil for many years without the heces-
sitv OF reseeding.
When il is desired to plow an alfalfa
field the strong root growth OF the al
falfa will severely interfere with the
Moving unless the plowshare is Kept
sharp.
Except where alfalfa has become
thoroughly established upon the farm
no attempt has been made TO encour-
soa a regular rotation with other crops.
On account of the special care given
TO the selection and proper fitting OF
the field for alfalfa it has seemed ad-
visahle TO leave the alfalfa on the same
field as long as il produced well.
As soon as conditions are unfayora-
bile and the field becomes patehy ana
crowded with June grass and White
clover il is best TO cut the alfalfa late
in the season and then plow. The field
the following season should be put into
corn or some other cultivated crop and
intensive cultivation practiced 10 sub
dine weeds. The year following the In
tensive cultivation the field can be
Gown 10 alfalfa to advantage.
The weight of green forage obtained
nor acre from alfalfa for the season Is
ennroximately double that of clover,
three times the weight OF timothy and
Ave times the weight of bronze grass
The proportions for hay are nearly as
great in favor of alfalfa as IN the
case of green substance.
Alfalfa yields three times as much
total protein per acre as clover. nine
fines as much protein as Timothy and
twelve times as much protein as bronze
grass.
At 500 ton for the hay good alfalfa
will yield forage valued at 500 an acre
Iond that will grow alfalfa is readily
worth 5000 an acre. As alfalfa Is
perennial plant. If established under
tho proper environments. IL will con-
,inue TO grow and give three or -four
cuttings year for many years
The seed Is somewhat like red clover

the new light, the port of the Column
bia being the promised new doorway
The Columbia river basin is the
wheat granary of the Pacific coast,
though much of the grain area is yet
undeveloped. It has the largest un-
cut forests within our national bord-
ers. The Columbia river and its trib-
utaries have several millions of un-
developed waterQower and millions
of acres of semi arid land may yet
be reclaimed by using the surplus
water and power of the Columbia
river for irrigation. Great river re-
clamation projects for the recovery
of rich alluvial dairying and truck
gardening lands are already under
way. The Columbia river basin has
room for many of the frugal land
tilling immigrants that the Panama
canal will bring direct from the old
countries. The Pacific northwest has
suddenly awakened to the logic of the
Columbia river as a natural highway
and an ocean port.

THE FINDING OF NEW WORLDS
(Goodwin's Weekly

(Goodwin's Weekly
Most people are familiar with the
details of the finding by Columbus Of
the new world.
The years of struggle, going from
one court to another seeking in vain
for sufficient means to secure an out
fit for the venture he was seeking to
make; the final sailing of the little
caravels, two of which were but large
open boats; the manhood required
to cajole and bully the ignorant
crews; the storm that threatened de-
struction; the fearful days and nights
when fear and superstition combined
to make frantic the seamen; the first
hope when the sea weeds that must
have come from some shore f1oated
past; the lighting, up among the sails
of a weary land bird until at last
the cry of "a light! A light" smote
the ears of the over-strained man
and he knew that an answer had come
to his prayers. What must his
thoughts have been in that hour? A
new world found, new epoch for
mankind to have its birth with the
dawn, and with that dawn there be-
fore him in tropical splendor new
world had risen from out the sea.
That event has been declared to be
the greatest since the coming of the
Messiah and in many ways 1t is true,
but inspired men have found other
new worlds and the discoveries are
growing more and more frequent.
When Watt heard the first respira-
ton of the steam engine, he did not
realize the truth but he really had
found and put under control CENT
that more than doubled the working
force Of the world on land and sea; a
force to make Of the oceans but fer
ries; to draw the nations together
to eventually conquer the moods and
passions of men and usher in the
reign of peace. The new world that
he had found was not of land, but of
a force through which new lands
might be swiftly settled. With his
name should be coupled those of
George Stephenson and Robert Full
ton; the one applying that force to
moving chariots on land, the other
to the navigation of the water.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1914-04-03

the darkness to reveal with new
dawn the worlds that have through
the ages waited for man to gain
enough in vision to discern them.
The lightnings that through the
centuries have been rending the cak
have all the time been waiting to
serve man when he should attain the
wisdom to call them into his service,
to give him new Unreasonable
force, to give to the world new
light and power.
The soft air that fans the heated
brow in summer is loaded with fer
tiliser that will double the worlds
food supply. =
The anaesthetic has look like
death, but it is the most merciful
agent ever sent to lull men to sleep.
Now voyagers are searching these
new worlds in all directions and the
promise shines out brighter and
brighter that the day is drawing near
when man shall have full dominion
and realize that from the first the
earth and the air were loaded with
blessings for him when he should
attain the wisdom to call them to
his aid.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1914-04-03

When we stop to think that only
five hundred and fifty years ago every
book, including school and prayer
books and every public and private
document was written by hand; then
we realize what new world was
found when movable types were in
vented and when they first found full
expression through the projection
press. In many ways that was more
important than the discovery of the
new world, for 1t meant the final ban
ishment of the worst enemy the
world has ever known-that squalor
of the brain called ignorance.
When Calico invented the tele-
scope he suddenly discovered a thou
sand new worlds that all the time had
been rolling to the music of their
own axles through the centuries just
beyond mans feeble vision.
When Morse heard the tick of the
first telegraph message as it started
on it's fight and the response on
another instrument, he knew that
he had discovered a new world and
that it would soon be possible TO
put girdle round about the earth in
forty minutes.
But none of the above is so Won
derful as that other new world that
was found when the first still small
voice" came through the telephone.
1t seems to us the listener must have
involuntarily thought. And a great
and strong wind rent the mountains
and brake in pieces the rocks before
the Lord; but the Lord was not in
the wind; and after the wind an
earthquake, but the Lord was not in
the earthquake. And after the earth
quake fire; but the Lord was not in
the fire; and after the fire still
small voice."
"And 1t was so, wnen Elijah heard
it, he wrapped his face in his mantle
and went out and stood at the enter
ing in of the cave; and behold there
came voice unto him and said:
What doest thou here?'"
Now Marconi has found a new
world more wonderful than the
others, for the vision it brings is that
we are all like the mutinous crew Of
Columbus, that other worlds await
us when few more waves shall be
ridden few more pillows crossed.
These new worlds are being con-
stantly discovered. When Milton in
his study sat down to justify the ways
of God to man, to his blinded eyes
there came celestial picture to
guide his hand as in immortal words
he reproduced the picture.
Science is constantly rolling back

country to which they are assigned.
1t will be their business to study
every market in the world where OPP
portunities exist for German trade.
We possess a first-rate consular SER
vice, but the prerogatives Of its mem
bers are eircumscribed by bureaucrat-
ic traditions. The World association s
agents will carly no samples and So
licit no business. They are to keep
their eyes and ears open and their
mouths, for our scheme embraces a
regular system of public lectures and
addresses, illustrated by kinema
views"
The above is especially interesting
when we reflect that there are men
in congress who have been there ever
since the transformation of German
trade began, and have not felt one
thrill of regret, that the United States
has looked ON and taken no steps to
place herself right in the foreign
trade.
All last summer we watched while
President Wilson drove his free trade
measure through congress, with the
result that body blow was given
a great agricultural interest in Utah
and some millions of dollars was di-
verified from our state to the gentle
men in Cuba who employ laborers
whose only clothing is breech -clout,
who pay no money for schooling their
children, who have no pride of ances-
try and no certainty of being able to
claim or be sure of their progeny
And just now, our same most ami
able president is doing his best, per-
haps unwittingly, to take from our
shipping, the one advantage it has
heretofore had of carrying on undis-
turbed the ocean trade between our
home ports.
Germany has an area almost equal
to the one state of California, but is
able to find work on her soil and on
the sea for her 66,O00,000 people,
California and all our other states
are vexed over the problem of what
to do to find employment for our sur
plus population. 1t seems the quality
of craftsmanship has its degrees.

The Methodist Brotherhood meet
ing for the current month was book
ed for Thursday evening at the usual
place, and DR.. T. G. Tiff of Denver,
Colo, and District Superintendent w.
H. Barker were expected to deliver
the principal addresses.
DR.. Tiff is one of the ablest men in
Methodism in the northwest, and his
addresses are always of high order
1t is to be regretted that the hall is
not large enough so he could have as
large an audience as his address is
great 1t is distince loss to every
man in the community to fail to hear
him, and only those who have heard
him can fully realize this.
