garding the nitrogen content in the
middle OF the first summer. 1t is a
safe assumption that this content
would be considerably greater than in
the case of the first two legumes men
toned. which should not he seeded un-.
til the lst of June. When sweet clover
is permitted to mature it's value III nj
trogcn approximatcs that Of alfalfa
that has stood the same length Of time.
The second crop Of alfalfa is usually
lighter than the first and may contain
eighty pounds of nitrogen. Forty per
cent Of the nitrogen in an alfalfa plant
is in the roots when the plant comes to
it's first period Of blossoming When
sod has stood three years there is
greater percentage in the roots and
large accumulation in the form of dead
organic matter in the soil. Three
hundred pounds is IL conservative esti-
mate of the amount of nitrogen in live
and dead material produced by the
alfalfa.
The length of time that the alfalfa
will be available depends upon the ma
turity OF the organic matter The i'm
mature beans and sweet clover will
yield up practically all of their nitrogen
within the year. lii the case of ma
tured legumes, and especially old al
falfa plants, complete decay will re-
quire several years. much depending

Peach Leaf Curl,

Peach leaf curl is Il disease that has
been causing a. great deal of damage
in recent years throughout the central
seaboard states. The leaves curl up,
turn white or gray. sometimes marked
with purple, and fall off the trees. The
disease can be- prevented by early
spraying with lime sulphur or by spring
spraying with self boiled Iime-sulphur
after the foliage is out. The latter
method is generally advised.
Since the disease lives over in the
orchard from year to year. it would be
we'll to be prepared for Il vigorous cam
paign Of prevention. This should be-
gin with limc-sulphur treatment be-
fore the buds open. and might be fol-
lowed with subsequent spraying with
self boiled lime-sulphrr as soon as the
first growth of foliage has reached full
size These methods are fully de-
scribed in the late books ON peach cul-
ture or in many of the best up to date
experiment station bulletins. Country

RUTLAND WONDERS

ROBBERY OCCURRED
CITIZENS SAY NOT.

Citizens of Rutland are debating
as TO whether the telegraph editor for
the Sioux Falls Argus-Leader or some
printer in that newspapers office is
not Juggling around an idea that he
has been the recipient of unfair
treatment al the hands of the Lake
county town. and Is now trying 10
get hack" at the municipality The
edition of the Argus-Leader reaching
here yesterday contained. under q
two deck" head, the following item:
Rutland. Dec. S.-This morning
at 3 o'clock burglars entered the First
State bank of Rutland. blew open the
safe with dynamite. and secured
$1,000 i'm cash-mostly silver. The
people of the town heard the explo-
sion. The burglars entered the bank
by prying open the door. There is no
clew TO the robbers. The bank was
insured"
In Rutland it is denied that that
place was visited by cracksmen. 1t
is even declared hat there is no such
institution there as the First State
bank. c. r.. Olstad. president of the
First National bank here, is president
of the Farmers Savings bank at Rut-
land. Mr.. Olstad has not been adj
vised of any unusual occurrence in
connection with the place. 1t is
thought probable that the Sioux Falls
paper confused Rutland with Het-
land. where robbers are reported to
have gotten about $1,000 from a
bank safe.
