RUSSIAN THISTLE
MAY RIVAL ALFALFA
Actual Experience OF c. Fl. HittsOn, OF
Tucumcari, Proves It Is Fine
Feed for Dairy Cows.

Tucumcari, n. NJ, March 26.-That
the Russian thistle, heretofore dcspised
as a farm pest and burned wherever
possible, is valuable as a feed for
dairy cows, is the discovery made by
C. H. Hittson, a Tucumcari attorney.
In fact, according to Mr.. HittsOn's ex-
periments with the thistle. it may rival
alfalfa as a food for livestock. In
giving the particulars of his expert
ments with the Russian thistle as a
forage plant Mr.. HittsOn says:
In July of last year 1 cut about 20
tons Of this plant before it began to
bloom. I used an ordinary mower and
ran the rake Immediately behind It,
hauling and stacking the thistle as
soon as possible after the cutting, for
handle after it dries. There is no need
of curing it. I put the hay in a long
barn from end to end and had the hay
tramped down thoroughly. In Janu-
airy I opened the barn and started
feeding I let the cattle go into the
stack and eat as they came to 1t.
After the front portion was eaten away
I frequently let a few cows in the
barn with full access to the stack all
night They would eat all they wanted
and then lie down cOntentedly.
After eating this food cattle drink
heartily and so far as 7 have been
able to determine experience no evil
effect whatever. have never fed
forage I liked so well. Cattle devOUT
it greedily, yet never eat too much Of
it. 1t has some Of the good effects
of alfalfa, but none of the evil effects
of this hay It is very fine for mich
cows. I find that a slight taste Is
given the milk, but it is such as alf-
alta gives and sis not disagreeable. In
fact I like the taste better than the
normal taste Of grass milk.
Il have been informed by Prof
Mundeu of the United States expert
men station near TUcUmcari, that
Russian thistle tests out with timothy
hay. For my part 7 want nothing
better for cattle than Russian thistle"

FIRST CUTTING OF
ALFALFA IN MAY
Crop in PecOs Valley Now -Four Inches
High; SmudGe Pots Being Used
In Orchards to COmnteract ErOst.

Roswell, n. NJ, March 26.-The first
cutting of alfalfa viii begin about the
middle of May unless an unforeseen
freeze should should occur and retard
the growth of the crop. The alfalfa
IS now up four inches It is about two
weeks further advanced than it was
a year ago
The early cutting this year is at
trlbuted largely to the winter irriga-
ton. Heretofore only a few realized
the benefits to be derived from winter
watering. This year, however, winter
irrigation in the valley was general.
The fruit men of Roswell and its
vicinity are finishing pruning their
trees and are getting ready to smudge
and spray. Already some of the or
chardists have had their oil pots
lighted, among these being Capt.
Charles L. DeBremOnd.
The LED orchard has finished prun-
ing and Is getting ready to spray its
trees. Smudging viii begin about the
first of April and will continue until
the first of May.
The Oat crop in the valley is looking
fine. The winter crop has grown fast
owing to moderate weather, but the
farmers are pasturing it down to keep
it back.
Apple men expect a fancier crop this
year than heretofore, because they
have paid more attention to scientific
methods. The pruning and irrigation
has been more systematic and the
strict enforcement of the spraying law
has had splendid results.

Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation The condi-
ton is perfectly natural 1t is just
as natural as it is for old people to
walk slowly. For age is never so
active as youth. The muscles are less
elastic And the bowels are muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets.
One might as wen refuse to aid weak
eyes with glasses as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The bowels
must be kept active. This is impor-
tant at all ages, but never 50 much
as at fifty.
Age is not time for harsh physics
Youth may occasionally whip the bow
