seeding, most of these weeds Will De
ti,,sd out. 1t is a mistake to SOW al
falfa on a poorly prepared SOIL
Inoculation is essential in growing
alfalfa. Soil is said to be inoculated
for alfalfa when it contains the oac-
terra which have the ability to gather
,rea Nitrogen from the air and store
il in the nodules on the roots Oh al
faIfa. ii these bacteria are not al
ready in the soil they must be intro
duced from an outside source. The
most certain way to inoculate is 10
bring inoculated soil from a neid
which has previously grown alfalfa
or sweet clover. Apply such soil at
the rate of about 800 pounds per acre
and disk or harrow it in Immediately.
II will not be safe to leave 1t on the
surface for any length Of time, be-
cause direct sunlight will kill germs
very quickly II soil from an lnocu'
lated field is not available, or il that
method is too expensive, artificial IN
oculation material in the form or
nure culture can be secured free OF
charge from the United States Es'
nartment of Agriculture. Where
there are county agents the applica'
tion should be made through them;
otherwise write directly to the United
States Department of Agriculture at
Washington, ID. c.
Seeding in September is generally
preferred. If the seeding is done that
season the plants have chance 10
get well established before winter
sets in. and in the spring they will
he strong enough to get ahead OF the
weeds, Twenty pounds of seed to the
acre is the usual rate in Arkansas. A
wheelbsrrow or cyclone seeder will
usually distribute the seed more even
ly over the land than broadcasting. Ii
neither of these machines can be had,
broadcasting is satisfactory, If done
carefully, This method calls for
about five pounds more of seed than
machine seeding.
During the first season it may be
necessary to clip the weeds couple
Of times to keep them from seeding.
If the weeds are not bad, considerable
alfalfa may be secured the first sea
son. In no case should any weeds be
allowed to go to seed. The cutting OF
alfalfa should always be done when
the new shoots are just starting from
the crown. This is usually when the
p,auts are about one-tenth in bloom
II the cutting is done later, many OF
the shoots will be cut off, and they
will be slow to recover II the plants
are cut before the shoots start at all
the next crop will be set back. 1t is
not a good idea to cut alfalfa so late
in the fall that small growth can
not be made before frost.
Since alfalfa takes much mineral
water from the soil in its growth, it is
unwise to keep a field in alfalfa over
about six years. although if farm
cr's available acreage for this crop Ii
limited 1t may be kept much longer Il
given q top dressing of manure abou
very two or three years.

From this we drove to the church of St Paul, just outside the walls Here wass cen the crypt of St. Paul, Mosaic pictures, and the wonderful columns of the Ionic and Doric styles After seeing this we went tc, the church ot St. John. This is, as in the case of all churches, a wonderful work of architecture. Across from this church is kept the sacred stairs which our Savior is said to have ascended many times. They were brought from Jer-
 usalem, and here many people ascent them on their knees uttering prayers or some piece of scripture.

"DodsOn's Liver Tone" Will Clean Your Sluggish Liver Better Than CalomeI
 and Can Not SaIvate.

Calomel makes you sick: you lose a days work. Calomel is quicksilver and it salivates; calomel inj jures your liver
 and all knocked out, if your bowels are constipated and your head aches or stomach is sour, just take a spoonful of harmless Dodson's Liver Tone instead of using sickening, salivating calomel. Dodson's Liver Tone is real liver medi- cine. You'll know it next morning be- cause you will wake up feeling fine, your liver will be working, your head ache and dizziness gone, your stomach will be sweet and bowels regular. You will feel like working. You'll be cheer ful; full of energy, vigor and ambition.
