The January American Magazine.

Two very remarkable contribu-
tons about the war appear in the
January American Magazine. One,
by Ray Stannard Baker, is entitled
THE Last Phase of the Civil War
1t is fiction story of the German in
vasion of America in 1915-16 and is
a sort of imaginary history of the
war supposed to be written one hum
dred years hence. The United States
wins without any fighting at all and
the story of it's victory is ingenious
and full of sense, humor and sur
prise. The other contribution on the
war is entitled Hats Off to France!"
1t is by Will Irwin, special cOrrespon-
dent of the American Magazine and
it reports the courage and GOODNESS
with which the French are taking
part in this war. One gains from
this article the impression that
France is determined and sportsman
like to the last degree.

To Find Hardy Varieties of Alfalfa
Adapted to Iowa.

A test of all the known varieties
and strains of alfalfa is being made
by the farm crops department OF the
Iowa State Agricultural College.
Some 259 different lots of alfalfa
seed were secured altogether and
planted early in the summer the col
lege is endeavoring to find a type OF
alfalfa which is unusually hardy and
best adapted to Iowa climate. In a
letter to Henry Field Of Shenandoah,
the seed man, Prof. Hughes states
that he has already noticed great
difference in the plants just from
their growth during the past season.
He says in this letter:
''In all we secured 259 different
lots of alfalfa seed. These We're
planted side by side, early in the
summer. l did not expect to see any
difference this year, but the differ
ence which has been showing up the
last few weeks is wonderful. On
some strains the leaves were fine
and green right up to the frost, while
others right beside them stopped
growing some weeks ago. Then there
is great difference in the height.
One strain in particular is eighteen
inches high with large leaves and
large strong stalks, while another
variety very near it did not grow
more than three inches high, with
very fine leaves and stalks. Of course
the main test will be the winter. We
plan to cut off about one-third OF
each of these plants so that they will
go into the winter entirely bare and
unprotected. The other two-thirds
of each plot will not be cut at all this
fall. We think it will be worth a
great deal if we can hit on certain
types of alfalfa that are very hardy.
In addition to the resistance to cold
the resistance to drouth and leaf
spot will also be studied"

All the world is now engrossed IN
wars talking warts reading war
and much of it is now engrossed in
war. People are wondering how the
great conflict between the German
nations and the allies will result
and they cannot help but notice any
thing that has a reference to the
great conflict.
Count VonBismarck was the great
est character in the history OF mod
ern Europe. The Iron Chancellor
was the man of the hour in the pro-
gress of the German emplre-Was
the man of destiny and all Germany
responded to the doings and sayings
of that great statesman.
Now, Worden, who is student OF
history, has accumulated some hg-
ures that are more than interesting.
He starts with 1S49, at which time
Bicmarck was young; but he was not
too young in that year to be made
chancellor of Prussia. Now Worden
puts it this way:
He takes the figures 1S49. Then
he adds 1S49 this way.

The Dixie Theatre has installed a

ceptacle placed on the walls at regu-

fluid substance, highly perfumed
which acts as disinfectant, killing
all poisonous germs and purifying the

devised so that the amount of fluid
consumed depends on the number in
the audience, as, for instance, a com.

small portion, while large crowd will
consume a greater quantity.
