Wanted Z Little Praise Himself.

Following a disastrous fire in a west
ern city, many men and women gath
cred to look at the ruins. Some of the
zen, seeing that a wall near which
they were standing was topping, made
haste to get out Of the way, and mar
rcEly escaped being crushed.
Johnny Erabison, a good Irish citi-
zen, WIS 80 near the wall that he could
not escape with the others. SO, whirl-

wall, burst through it, and came out
On The other SIDE safe, and evidently
very proud Of his exploit. Women

remarks about his clothes He seemed

Found In a Glacier.

Sir Martin Conway has recently told
this story OF finding lost ak in the
Alps: Zurbiggen, one of the cele-
brated mountain climbers of the
world in scaling a peak Of Les An
GLASSES. near Chamounix, accidentally
let his ak fall near the summit of the
peak. 1t fell some thousands of feet.
In the normal course of things it was
buried in snow and swallowed up in
the glacier, being covered deeper and
deeper each year and at the same
time being carried slowly downward
as the ice flowed on. Seven or eight
years afterward Hon. c. G. Bruce and
Harkbir, Sepoy chief, in descendir +.

falling, and great crevasse barred
the way, being unable to find the
bridge over it, cut a path down to

no mistake IS to the identity of the
AK, as Harkbir had seen it and used
it before.

is in full bloom or as soon as the
young sprouts or shoots start to grow
at the base of the plant.
When alfalfa Is left too long, the
leaves fall off and the stems become
woody, and the yield of the next crop
is greatly reduced.
Alfalfa Equal to Wheat Bran.
The alfalfa should be raked and
either put in the barn or If it is not
sufficiently dry, put into hay cocks.
1t Is matter of economy to have two
or three hundred hay caps made Of
six cent cloth one yard square) to use
in case of bad weather.
Twenty pounds of salt sprinkled
over each load of hay will help to pre-
vent heating and also add to the pal
atahility Of the hay.

SELF EDUCATION
NEWELL DWIGHT HILLS
(Pastor, Plymouth Church, Brooklyn

/ tPastor, Plymouth Church, Brooklyn

1t is unreasonable TO suppose that
no one but a college graduate can be
educated. in the broader meaning of
that much-abused word. If a young
man or young woman is wholly un-
decided as to his or her future work
a four years college course may help
to n decision but if one is determined
TO follow a special line Of work, he
can make more rapid progress outside
a college, sometimes, than in one. If,
for example, he has chosen literature
as a profession, he can study under a
tutor in the subjects he desires and
progress twice as fast as in college.
The courses in all our universities are
calculated for a mediocre student, who
probably gives more time to athletics
and outside matters than to study. An
ambitious young person, who is anX-
ious to do something in the world has
to drag along with the others, how
ever willing he may be to forge ahead.
With tutor, or home study, he can
push along as rapidly as he is capable
Of doing, with no one to hold him
back. 1t is possible to enter almost
any profession after a course of home
study, without a college diploma /
have often heard lawyers assert that
those members of the bar who studied
in offices were invariably the most
successful ones in practice. They not
only have the theory of law, but also
know it in operation.
Some educators once made out a
list of a hundred great men who lived
in England during the half-century
from 1850 TO 1900. They were prin-
cipally men of the first genius, like
Darwin, Huxley, Tyndall, and Ruskin.
They were greatly surprised when II
was discovered that only twenty of the
hundred had received college educa-
tons. The others were self-educated,
or had studied under tutors at home.
This must have been more than a coin
cidence, and to my mind IL is a re-
markable commentary on the success
of the modern system of education. 1t
means that the young man who can
only study at night is under no handi-
cap in the race for success because he
is unable TO spend four years in col
lege. 1t is possible that he stands
better chance than the college gradu-
ate.
There are more ways than one OF
obtaining an education in this world.
and only narrow-minded people as
sert that the university is the only
gateway TO satisfactory life. A
man can greatly improve himself by
home study of the best books, and
through contact with cultured people.

ALFALFA ADVICE.
! Got q Good Stand-Others Can Do
It. Some of the Things
Did.
BY J. M. Elliott, Dell Roy, o.

"1he most important things In
growing alfalfa in this locality are:
]. A we'll drained soil. 2. A good we'll
prepared seed bed. 8. An inoculated
soil. T. Lime In some form unless
soil is already provided with lime. 8.
Good seed.
My experience IL as follows:
In 1911 we plowed one-half acre Of
wheat stubble in July; MANFRED some
before blowing. Narrowed thorough
ly. Secured some inoculated soil from
neighboring farm which we mixed
with fertilizer; also soaked seed in
commercial liquid called Farmogerm
and sowed same last Of July. Did not
cut 1t first season, but cut once In
July, 1912, and got four tons from Ii
In the summer Of 1913. This year
We have plowed four acres which
had been previously MANFRED and
proceeded same as season 1911, ex-
cept that we did not use any CON-
mercial inoculating liquid as in 1911,
but inoculated the soil with soil from
June IS. 1913, have about FIVE tons
from the four acres for the first cut
ting and the second seasons first crop
OF oneihalf acre is ready to cut at
least one ton Of good hay. / believe
IL the FIVE conditions above named are
faithfully carried out, that alfalfa can
be made a success.
