VALUE OF ALFALFA
AS HORSE FEED
Considerable Experiment Work
Done by Utah and Illinois
Stations With Crop.

The Utah experiment station has
been doing considerable work to prove
the value of alfalfa as a feed for horses
and makes the following statement re-
garding 1t:
In comparing alfalfa and timothy as
roughages for horses. the result of six
tests under varying conditions of work
show that 1t is not as difficult to main
tain weights OF horses when fed alfalfa
as when fed timothy. The cost of
maintenance was greater in every
case. except one. on timothy than on
alfalfa The appearance OF the horses
In every comparison OF alfalfa and
timothy was in favor Of the alfalfa fed
horses"
The Illinois experiment station has
made this statement in reference to
alfala:
When alfalfa hay is fed as the
roughage part OF ration for farm
horses at hard work. less grain is nee
essary to prevent them from LOSING
weight than when timothy hay is fed
In this test there was saving OF
about twenty-five per cent. OF grain"
We may add that In most instances
where men have failed to get the de-
sired results in the feeding OF alfalfa
hay to horses or mules. that too much
has been given them. says Hoards
Dairyman. The government has con.
Quoted quite a number OF tests with
alfalfa. but they could not get some OF
the men to follow instructions as to
the proper amount of alfalfa to feed
and had to put them in the guard
house. 1t is reported they fed
weeks supply OF alfalfa In three days
We do not know that It is necessary to
infer that guard houses should be es-
tablished in the country in order to get
farmers TO see the Importance of not
feeding too much alfalfa hay to horses
or mules.

DENIES THEORY OF LoMBRoso
Equally High Authority Asserts That
There 10 No Distinct Type
Of Criminal.

DR.. Charles Goring is the latest
criminologist to combat the theories
OF Lombroso and to assert that there
Is no such thing as a criminal type.
DR.. Goring admits that there are some
persons who are naturally criminals,
but he denies that their criminality
shows itself by physical stigmata.
Seeing that criminality is a purely ar
tificial distinction, 1t is hard to under.
stand why nature should aid In the
classification. Our social system has
seen fit to select small number Of
the almost innumerable ways of be-
Ing wicked and to label them s.s Grim
inal. The other ways are not labeled
as criminal, although they may actual
ly involve much greater moral tur
pitude. 1t is not the function OF 80
ciety to prevent people from being
wicked, but only to prevent them from
being wicked in such ways as are
particularly perjudicIal to the rest OF
the community. There was a time
when 1t was criminal to read the Bible
1t is still criminal to do some things
OF which the moral sense may highly
approve. We can hardly expect ma.
ture to give her sanction to our arti.

GENERAL CAMPAIGN
ON HOG CHOLERA
State and Federal Governments
Must Have Hearty Co-0pera-
ton of All Farmers.

Hog cholera has existed in the Unit
ed States for rs years, and 1t is safe
to say that in each of the last 25 years
the farmers OF this country have lost
millions of hogs from this disease
The United States department of
agriculture believes that success in
any attempt to eradicate hog cholera
will depend upon the establishment OF
efficient organizations by the state
and federal governments which will
work together. They must, however.
have the full cooperation and support
OF the farmers. With the organiza-
tions perfected the idea is that when
hog cholera breaks out on the farm
1t will be the duty of those organiza-
tions then and there to restrict the
disease to the one farm where 1t al
ready exists by instituting suitable
measures OF quarantine and also by
the administration of the protective
serum to the droves on adjoining
farms. AS is already known. the de-
partment LIS now testing out In a few
sections this method of combating hog
cholera. In the meantime, while the
necessary information preliminary to
general campaign against hog chol-
era is being secured. farmers may do
much to protect themselves and help
to restrict the disease by a careful OBJ
servance of a few simple rules. such
as the following:
a. Do not locate hog lots near a
public highway. railroad or a
stream. The germ of hog cholera may
be carried along any one of these
avenues
t2) Do not allow strangers or neigh
bors to enter your hog lots and do
not go into your neighbors' lots. The
germ Of hog cholera may be readily
carried in a small amount of dirt on
your shoes.
(3) Do not put new stock, either
hogs or cattle. In lots with the herd
already on the farm. Newly pur-
chased hogs should be put in separate
Enclosures well separated from the
herd OF the farm. and kept under OBJ
servation for three weeks, because
practically all stock cars, unloading
chutes and pens are infected with hog
cholera and hogs shipped by rail are
therefore apt to contract hog cholera.
(D Hogs sent to fairs should be
quarantined for at least three weeks
after they return to the farm.

The captain studied longer.
The figure on the photograph was
different from anything ever seen or

bearing a faint resemblance to the

was dainty and appealing to the eye
but 1t was almost surrounded by a
great mass OF material resembling
hair. To the waist the figure bore
some resemblance to the women oi

ceased. From the waist down the fig

are all apt to bring disaster when
lambing time comes.
A few roots, a good run on dry pas
ture or down, and plenty of good sound
hay in racks nights and morning. are
what is required for breeding ewes
Too many roots are certain to bring
many dead lambs into the lambing
yards Very serious losses have been
traced to this cause. but few roots
given with discretion every day will
greatly benefit the ewes.
The ewes should be kept in a regular
steady thriving state; on no account
keep ewes short one day and stuff the
next. They must not be turned out on
a frosty morning until they have had
little hay in racks.
Rock salt should always be kept
handy, being one of the chief items
OF ewes diet. Bad management with
fn-lamb ewes is the root OF most of the
trouble and losses at lambing time.
The lambing yards should be made
on level piece of old ley, If possible,
and sheltered from north or northeast,
and In an open dry position near hay
and straw ricks. Two square yards
should be made with hurdles adjoining
each other, with each pen made OF
four hurdles matched at top. The
number of pens and size of the yards
must be according to number of ewes
to lamb. To use the same yard year
by year is the way to cause disaster.
When the ewes begin to drop their
lambs. the shepherd must be constant
