ALFALFA ON EARLY TRUCK Land.

The plan of a number of early cabbage
| growers to plant alfalfa on the land
after the cabbage is off the ground calls
to mind the great advantage enjoyed bv
a man who can SOW this crop after an
early truck crop. 1t has Ions been
known that alfalfa after early potatoes
has the best chances of success because
the soil has been well fortified for thepo-
tatCes, and the ground has been kept free
from weeds by frequent civilizations.
The same success may be expected after
other early truck crops that have been
tertlllzed and thoroughly cultivated dur
ing the first part of the season. This
fact is especially interesting this wear,
because some early crops have brought
such low prices that they have been left
on the ground, or only partly sold. In
other cases insects or diseases have re-
duced the stand of plants below the
profitable point. A man naturally
wishes some return for the time and
money spentin growing such a crop, and
II he has any use for this best of feeds
ne can get large return by planting
alfalfa. Often, also, a farmer nav wish
to try only an acre or less of alfalfa the
hrst year, so he can find no more CON
Venlent place than on this truck land.
1t should be remembered, however. that
alfalfa requires heavy lining, and that
lime may make the soil less favorable
for the growth Of some truck crops. and
particularly white or sweet potatoes, in
later years.
The State Experiment Station at
Newark has recently published a short
circular on alfalfa culture, to be follow
ed later by bulletin. Copies of this
circular can be obtained either from the
Station or from the County Agent.
Buyers of crimson clover seed who are
troubled by the German knotweed
commonly called moss. would do well to
examine seed carefully before purchas-
ing to be sure there is no knotweed seed
present. The County Agent recently
found seed of this weed in an imported |
lot of seed. There is no use irving to
rid the farm of this pest if new supply
comes each year with clover seed.

SCOUTING MEANS GOOD HEALTH
and STRENGTH FOR OUR BOYS

The world interest in the Boy Scout
movement challenges the intelligent un-
derstanding of everyone, and yet many
people still ask, ''What is scouting?"
''What do Boy Scouts do ?"
The aim of the Scout movement is no
inculcate character, which, though essen
tial to success in life, is not taught within
the school, and being matter largely Of
environment is too generally left to
chance, with deplorable results The
scout movement endeavors to supply the
required environment and ambitions
through games and outdoor activities
which lead a boy to become a better man
and a good citi. en-.
Scouting means outdoor life, and so
health, strength, happiness and practical
education. BY combining wholesome,
attractive, outdoor activities with the in
fluence of the Scout oath and law, the
movement develops character.
It develops the power of initiative and
1t helps boys It in
sures gooG citizenship. The Boy Scout
healthfully and sanely offsets
the disadvantages which civilization has
caused.
Conservation of our national resources
is universally approved, but of what value
would material resources be unless we

BULLETIN ON LEGUMES.

+ The State Board of Agriculture will
soon issue a bulletin on Legumes.
] Legumes are grown largely in Della
ware, and prOfitably, but they are not
grown as largely as they might be. In
, stead of bare lands in winter in the or
chard or after corn and tomatoes and
similar crops. the land should be covered
with a legume. Instead of idle land in
summer, a legume like cowpeas or s-y-
i, beans or other nitrogen-gather She. d
be growing on it. The ancient alchem-
ist died trying to find the philosopher S
stone that should transmute the base
metals into gold. His successor. in
cent days, by using a microscope in
stead Of an acid, discovered the micrl
that transmutes air and clods into food
for man and beast These microbes
build fertilizer factories on the roots of
| legumes-where billions of willing
workers toll to provide us with food,
clothing, comfort, cash, education and
civilization. They are working to make
the world beautiful and luxurious. and
| We'ought to have gumpti0n enough to
take advantage of their labors. If we
