SWAT THE FLY!

The week of June Z to II was Fly
week for the school children of Chi.
cago. Sixty thousand children a day.
or 100000 for the entire week, heard
fly lectures. In addition, they heard
something informally about the fly
each day.
The State Food Commission gave
the school board of the city the use of
a moving picture fly film for the week.
The pupils of the Witnew school gave
a Swat the Fly" parade one after
noon. A song entitled The Fly Bri-
gade," composed especially for Fly
week, was sung often by children in
costume.
In some Of the manual training de-
partments pupils made three kinds of
fly traps and contested to see who
could catch the most flies. w. M.
Roberts, superintendent of vocational
education, thinks that the fy-fighting
spirit inculculcated during Fly week,
will be permanent.
What can we do to inculcate a fly
fighting spirit in Bookings?

FALL SEEDING OF ALFALFA

A number of successful fields of alf-
alta have been seeded in the fall. Mr..
Frank Sherwin of Bookings seeded
alfalfa into a small field of corn after
the last cultivation in August and OBJ
tanned a good stand which wintered
well. He left the stalks on the field to
catch snow and protect the alfalfa.
This seems to be a very satisfactory
method.
Another plan for seeding in the fall
is to mix the alfalfa with winter wheat
or rye, using 10 10 of wheat or rye and
SOW with a one-horse drill, between the
corn rows, leaving the stalks for win
ter protection. In some cases it may
be possible to seed the alfalfa success
fully on fall plowed land or summer
fallow, but it is likely that this would
winter Kill, because it would not be
sufficiently protected during the win
ter.
At the Highmore Satisfaction in 1911
one of the fields of alfalfa seeded in
May was destroyed by wind. This was
reseeded about the middle of July and
made a growth of about six inches in
height before cold weather came. All
of this killed out during the winter.
From the foregoing experiences and
others we conclude that the plan is to
seed into standing corn stalks or into
double-disced grain stubble, if there is
ample moisture, rather than on bare
fall blowing or ummer fallow.
The above suggestions are given
in answer to a number of inquiries
which have been received by the
Department of the State
College regarding seeding alfalfa in the
Manley Champlin, Agronomy
State College.

LIGHTNING DOES "STRIkE TWICE
IN SAME PLACE"

mo statement is more false than
lightning never strikes twice in the
same place" says DR.. b. B. Bracket,
Of the State College department of
engineering. "The exact opposite Is
true. Where lightning has struck in
the past is just where it is most likely
to strike in the future, as any one who
has lived in one locality for a con-
siderable time well knows"
There are many fake lightning rod
agents, according to DR.. Brackett-so
many in fact that farmers are becom-
ing skeptical relative to the merits Of
any system of protection against light
ming. But, he adds, this fact should
not discredit correct and reasonable
lightning protection.
BE careful whose advice you take
in this line. AS suggested, some Of
the fraudulent agents may still be at
work. Then also there are some sim
cere cranks in this field. Many fanci-
full and fantastic things have been
patented in this line, few Of which
having any real value. None of them
are necessary for the erection of a
satisfactory lightning protective sys-
tenn, however much the inventors may
believe in their special devices. Some
of these patented parts may be con-
venient and well worth purchasing, IL
they do not cost too much.
LAS a rule the local hardware dealer
should have in stock or should be able
to get without delay all the parts need
ed for the erection of a thoroughly
good system. Everything needed
should cost no more than the same ma
ter'al made up in a similar way for
other purposes. The erection of a sys-
ten is not difficult for any one who has
a little mechanical ability, and who
will accurately follow the instructions
that may be secured. If you know that
a man is honest and understands how
the work should be done, it may be
profitable to pay him a little more
than the real cost of the material and
the labor involved in erection. But
there is no reason why you should
pay for any large profits. for any royal
ties or for any fancy or expensive parts
to be used anywhere in the complete
system of lightning conductors"
