Getting Alfalfa Started Right

The county representative Of
Langlade county has collected the
experiences of a number of people
who have been starting alfalfa in
that county. Some used both lime
and incubation, some one and not
the other and some neither.
Those who used both had the best
stand and color and those who used
either had better stands than those
who used neither. 1t is apparent from
the experiences of people all over
the state that incubation is general
ly necessary and that lime applica-
tions will make a better stand Or at
least a more vigorous growth.
The right way is the best way and
the Importance of the crop is suffi-
cient to induce farmers to do it the
right way.

Schools and the War

That discussion in the schools in
helpful in creating sentiment for
world peace and preventing race pref
udice, is the gist of an address by
Supt. w. H. Maxwell, of New York
City, to the teachers at the opening
of the school year He said in part:
"Our constant aim should be to
clear the minds and hearts of our
children of old-world hatreds and
prejudices, whether these hatreds and
prejudices are racial, social or relig-
ious.

are gone. A lone bandit held up the
day coach on Southern Pacific train
number 101, the Sunset Limited, half

escaped by jumping through an open
window after disgustedly refusing a
collection of 81 taken up for him by
passenger, firing shot to empha-
size his feelings The bullet riccohet-
ed from the car ceiling and slightly
injured a passenger. The bandit was
caught within a mile of the "holdup."

Preparing for the international

Preparing for the international
Getting ready for the international
Live Stock Exposition, held this year
from November 28th to December 5th
is a task of vast proportions of which
the public has little conception. Each
year it has been the policy of the
management to provide additional
facilities for exhibitors and enlarge
accommodation for visitors This work
involves a heavy outlay annually and
it's only possible reward is public rec
ognition. Steadily increasing attend
ance and growing magnitude Of the
display of live stock demonstrates tn
sagacity of the management in this
respect
This year the expanding disposition
of the enterprise has necessitated
material increase in tn show ground
area. The historic Dexter Park local
ity, noted half a century back as the
greatest speed track in the world, is
to be utilized. A strong force of men
is engaged in the conversion process
which will be completed a month
hence. These improvements and en-
largements mean added space for ex-
hibitors and comfort for visitors.
Compared with facilities afforded at
the first international" the housing
of that institution this year will be
incomparably superior. Hundreds of
thousands of dollars have been ex-
pended on permanent quarters and
although at no period of it's career
has the exposition lacked accommoda-
ton, 1914 provision in this respect
will be considerably in anticipation
of actual requirement.
