Alfalfa growing in Vermont was
started by the late ChaTlesl c. Jones,
superintendent Of the Colgate farms
At the timt Of Ills Heath in the sink
ing of the dritanjt0be had perfected
plans to groY RIfatan pore extensive
~, having found BY Experiment that
ii could be done successfully here.
Since then alfalfa has been grown
with success at various ponk in Ver-
mont Probably the best Eeld of al
falfa in this section is that of Charles
A. Breese, just over the state line in
Hoosiek Mr.. Dreese has hYe acre
Geld of alfalfa from which oh June
Is he cut six tons of hay. A second
cutting of the same field on July 20
yielded eight tons more. At the pres
ent time there is third growth that
will yield better than ton to the
acre Mr.. Breese has another field
of three acres which he sowed to al
falfa on June % The stand there is
now from Il to 16 inches in height
Mr.. Breese invites anybody interest
ed to call and see his crop of alfalfa
1t is evident that alfalfa is crop
which can be grown successfully in
southern Vermont at least.

Newspaper publishers are con-
dcmning the publicity department of
the Panama-Pacific exposition for not
making an advertising appropriation
but instead working" the editors for
free notices. The protest is proper
but little late-Rutland Herald.
We are inclined TO believe, though,
that the Vermont papers at least did
not give this exposition as much free
space as they gave its predecessors.
Little by little even the country pa
pers are learning that their space is
their stock in trade and there Is no
more reason why they should give it
away than that the grocers should
give away flour. sugar and tea or that
bank should loan money without in
terest. reasonable charge should
be made for every line designed to
return an income or Published in any
instance where a profit is derived
The reason that practically all
country papers are not prosperous is
that they are too generous to local
institutions and societies and like
wise too easy victims of publicity
hunting space grafters.

No City Series,
Is the Verdict

There will be no city series In
New York this year. When the
Yankees, Giants and Superbas end
their regular seasons they will take
vacation.
Harry y. Hampstead, president
of the New York National League
club; Captain T. l.. Huston, one of
the owners of the New York Ameri-
cans. and Charles II. Ebbets. presi-
dent Of the Brooklyn club, met at
the Polo Grounds yesterday and
decided that New York had had
enough baseball for one season and
that there would be no point in
playing any sort OF city series.
The players on the three clubs
and the managers were not In favor
of series. They felt that the
games would draw small crowds.
The players would rather see the
worlds series than make the small
amount of money that would come
to them from city series.

in 2:021-2 in the third heat Of the
Arch City Stake, and Dwight Logan got
two heats Of the 2:13 pace, stepping

$500 cup for her owner, Chauncey
Sears, of Fall River, Mass, when she
won the Horseman's Futurity, that had
an aggregate value of $4,000.
For the Futurity race Mary Putney
was the favorite in field Of twelve.
At the start of the nrst heat she was
on break and did not right herself
until all the others were ahead. BY
trotting the last half in l:02 l-2 she
finished sixth. In the next two heats
the filly was on good behavior and won
impressively. In the first winning mile
she lowered her record to 2:07 ga.

e.dred $4,000 from the purse, Colorado
Range won $500, Native Spirit $500 and
Bacelli 5000. From Mary Putney's
earnings will be paid 5000 to Walnut
Hall Farm, nominator of her dam.
Russell Boy was thought to have
the Arch City Stake at his mercy and
sold 10 to favorite over the entire
field. With the Geers PAGER barred,
Hal Boy was the choice, and he won
the first heat by having more brush
than Russell Boy. Judge Ormonde be-
came factor in the second heat, win
ming pulled up when Russell Boy went
to a break at the last eighth post.
The third heat was the hardest,
Judge Ormonde standing a severe
drive and finishing length ahead Of
Russell Boy, who for the place nosed
out Hal Boy and The Beaver In the
last few yards of the fourth heat
Judge Ormonde faltered and Russell
Boy won By half length.
