RAISING ALFALFA IN SOUTH
One of Mysteries Why Leguminous Crops Are Not GroWn-ExceIIent
 for the Cows.

The many feeding inquiries which we receive from the South asking us to formulate rations of cottonseed meal and cottonseed hulls as the chief feeding stuffs, would lead us to believe, if we did not know otherwise, that alfalfa or any other legume could not be raised. We know that cowpeas, soy beans, lespedeza, al falfa and the like grow like weeds in the South and it is one of the mys- teries of the world why these crops are not more generally grown. says Hoards Dairyman. Cows do not do their best work when fed large amount of cottonseed meal and when cottonseed hulls form the entire roughage of the ration, but they will milk splendidly when fed with good alfalfa or other legume hay and corn silage.

Crude Oil Is Best and Most Reliable Vermin Eradicator-Drive Ami

Crude oil as it is naturally numnea from the ground is the best and most reliable lice and nit eradicator we have used. Crude oil is purchased at practically all oil stations and costs from five to eight dollars barrel ordinarily, or approximately 10 to Is cents a gallon. Of course, the barrel is returnable, but this is included in the price
 In the oil sections, like Oklahoma for instance, this oil can often he bought for one dollar a barrel. but that is in the heart of the producing region To treat the hogs it is well to drive them up to a corner of the hog house.

BUSINESS OF BREEDING HOGS
Much Better for Beginner to Start in on Modest Scale and Gradually
 increase His Herd.

tBy E.. L. JORDAN. Louisiana Experi-
 ment Station.)
 It is much better for the beginner in the business of breeding hogs and other animals to start in on modest scale and gradually increase his busi- ness. It is usually impossible for him to purchase extremely high-priced foundation stock, and, in fact, it would be unwise for him to do so. He can afford to put a considerable sun. ,iRa his herd sire, which must be up to the standard, but he should be content for time to be classed as multi plier of numbers of animals of the

A Vision in the Forest
 By CARL CARTER


T must confess this is a ghost story" said Jamieson at the club However, you can put it down to three nights and days spent wander ing in the Adirondacks, if you prefer to. It doesn't matter to me. I've half a mind not to tell it anyway, only remember the expression on Tarrant's face when he told it to me.
 "Tarrant and his wife had been married six years, and that is just about the time when trouble develops, if it is going to develop at all, especial ly when a couple are childless. They just began to disagree. The truth was. they were living an artificial city life, and both were getting bored.
 ''Tarrant and Molly had been deeply in love with each other when they married. Molly couldn't understand why Jack seemed not to care for her any more, and Jack Tarrant won- dered why the sweet girl he had mar ried was always nagging and finding fault with him. They talked of sepa- ration.
 The matter was still up in the air when they decided on spending their usual summer holiday separately. Molly went home to her mother and a lot of crank female friends-the un- married kind who try to separate happy couples. Tarrant went up to the Adirondacks to fish.
 'The first day or two he mooned about, very miserable, and yet relieved at the sense of freedom. He had ex- pected to long for Molly; on the con- trary he began to think of all the un- happiness that had been in their lives The thought of the tie between them maddened him, and that was how he lost his way in the woods at sundown.
 "Tarrant had no woodcraft at all.

He Wandered On and On.

He wandered on and on, and by the time he decided to shout for aid he was at least ten miles from anywhere, right in the heart of the most desolate tract in all that wilderness. He slept somehow that night, and the next day was the most terrible of all. The sec ond night he became delirious-but through it all he knew that he hated Molly.
 "He had no more knowledge of the passage of time, but toward evening he came suddenly upon little desert ed place in the heart of the forest There had been clearing there once, and there was still tumble-down log cabin. Tarrant approached, trying to pull himself together sufficiently to ap- pear intelligent, when suddenly there emerged from the cabin the most beau tifuI girl that he had ever seen.
 "Tarrant was not in condition to appreciate feminine beauty just then, but there was some quality in the girls face that seemed to stun his faculties, so that he could only stare and stare at her. It was not so much the physical beauty as the sweetness of soul, the wistfulness and sadness that set his heart beating tumultuous- iy, and, at the same time, seemed remi- niscent of something. He felt that he had seen the girl before-this country woman dressed in a homespun dress.
 Tt was impossible, of course. Tar rant began to wonder whether rein carnation was true, and whether he haC known her in some previous exist ence that had slipped from his mem ory with his birth. Suddenly he real ized that he was behaving rudely. The girl had turned away and gone inside the hut.
 "Tarrant went in, but, when he en- tered at last, after knocking repeat edly, he found the hut empty He de cided that the girl, alarmed at his be havior, had gono out of the back.
 Being a gentleman, of course he could not stay, but he could not resist taking some bread, rather stale ano dry, and some cold bacon that he |. found on a table. He withdrew with these into the forest and made rav enous meal Then, tired out. and in ured to mosquitoes, he fell asleep.
 "It N,ds earliest dawn when ht awoke. He opened his eyes in aston ishment, and at first he could not re member where he was. Then, all a

Soil Characteristics.

Although soil may be rich be- cause it contains plant food, it may be unproductive. The fertility of the land is it's productive power; tillage is one of the means by which this pro- ductive power may be increased. Moisture is an important factor in fruit growing. AS rule the apples in sod orchards are under size; they lack color, and are often deficient in nat ural juiciness. This fruit presents a marked contrast to that grown in or chards that have been titled carefully.
