London Shops and Clerks.

In the stores in London the clerks
first attracted my attention, but may
say the stores and shops themselves,
after New York, seemed small and old.
New York is SO new. The space given
to the more important shops Is so con-
siderable. In London it struck me that
the space was not much and that the
woodwork and walls were dingy. One
can tell by the feel Of place whether
It is exceptional and profitable, and all
Of these were that, but they were din
gy. The English clerk, too, had an air
Of civility-I had almost said servih-
(which was different. They looked
to me like individuals born to a con-
dition and point of view, and ! think
they are. In America any clerk may
subsequently be anything he chooses
(ability guaranteed), but I'm not SO
sure that this ! is true in England.
Anyhow, the American clerk always
looks his possibilities ibis problematic
future. The English clerk looks as If
he were to be one indefinitely. -Theo-

perience Of the alfalfa raiser in the
west. The western farmer plows the
ground and sows alfalfa seed the same
as we plow our ground and so wour
wheat. oats and other grains. Many
eastern farmers when attempting to
raise alfalfa do not appreciate that
the western conditions are different
from theirs. Western soils and eli
mate are ideal for alfalfa and the es-
sential bacteria do not have to be ar
tificially provided as is the case in the
Missippi valley and more eastern sec
tions.
An ideal alfalfa soil is deep, rich,
sandy or clay loan. The plant. how
ever, thrives nicely in other types of
soil if the ground is given the proper
preparation and other requirements
are furnished.
Alfalfa requires an abundance of
moisture, but will not tolerate stand

Ing water. If the surface is covered
for a protracted period. the plant
will smother, or if the water line or
water table is within four or five feet
of the surface, the tap root. when it
reaches the water, will decay and the
plant will soon become deficient or
will entirely perish.
The seed-bed should be deep, mel
low and thoroughly pulverized. In
order to secure rapid growth, the
hardpan or plaw sole should be made
mellow; otherwise the tender tap root
during it early growth will not pene-
trate it, but will naturally follow
the course of least resistance, which
will be near the surface.
Alfalfa being strong feeder and
a consumer of large quantities of
water, the root must be permitted
to penetrate deep where it secures, as
a rule, an abundance of moisture and
considerable plant food.

to attempt to raise alfalfa on soil that
is not sweet. Again, lime benefits
the physical and mechanical condi-
ton of the soil. Clay soils are made
friable and mellow, and light, sandy
soils are made more compact. Lime
also acts upon dormant potash, rem
dering it available. 1t is also bene-

Of compactness or from being water

Before planting alfalfa the farmer
should determine whether or not his
land is sour, and if it is, he should

the acre and disc it in. If limerick
dust cannot be secured, hydrated or
slaked lime will answer the purpose.
1t is not necessary to apply more than
one-half as much in weight of the
air-slaked or hydrated lime as of the
raw lime dust. Land which contains
lime, if the amount is not excessive,
is greatly benefited by making an
additional application.

Cows in this County are Excellent
Milk Producers--Some Good Records

The records kept by the Tiedemann
Co. of the cream purchas sed
during the past nine months ending
November 80, show that Crowley
county has some good butter fat
producing cows. That firm has been
buying cream for the past nine
months and its records show tests
that have run as high as 81 per cent,
with the lowest at l3 per cent. The
average is 32.48 per cent which is
almost one and half greater than
dairymen consider good tests. A test
of 81 is a priced record in most states.
There have been twenty-eight pro-
ducers in the county. who have sold
cream to this firm, whose cows have
made tests at times ranging above
80 per cent. They are A. Pedigo, 81;

This wool industry bids fair to
rapidly increase as there are each
year more small producers added to
the list. 1t is found that sheep can
be raised on smaller scale than
heretofore at proportionately good
profits. Many Michigan and other
northern states farmers find that
sheep can be raised in numbers as
few as fifty head to good advantage
and profit, but so far in this section
of the state larger flocks are main

Livestock Shipments

The bulk of the livestock shipments
from Crowley county and the sur
rounding county north OF the Arkan-
sas river is shipped to market from
the stock yards at Lolita which is
near the estern line of the county,
east OF Sugar City. There is no town
at that place and it makes better
shipping point than from the other
stations. The yards there are large
and the facilities built up with the
idea in view of handling large num-
bers. There are times, however
when thes yards are taxed to their
full capacity.
The cattle brought from other
points to the pastures and ranges in
this section are likewise shipped to
Lolita and unloaded.

duction will increase. Mr.. Matson
has studied the sheep business with
great deal of carcfulness and he
states that the Rambaulet is one of
the best breeds and the most in evil
dence in this section OF the state.
He states that as wool producer
it ranks well and its carcass is
among the best for butchers. The
Shropshire is also raised to quite
general extent.
