4 Republican senator

II has been assumed, possibly too
hastily. by the Democrats. that they
will retain control of the senate un-
til 1919. Republican leaders at Wash
ington who have been considering the
prospect interpose decided objection
and claim a good lighting chance Of
regaining control In 1916. Az II now
stands the Democrats have Sc sena-
tors, the Republicans 80. and the Pro-
gressives one. Thirty-two senators
will be elected In 1916. and IL Of
those whose terms then expire are
Democrats. IA are Republicans and
one Progressive. A majority Of the
senate Is 40. so that the Republicans
in 1916 will need to hold what they
have and gain ten seats.
Hopes are expressed that these ten
may be had by winning enough from
the list of outgoing Democrats In de-
batable states: West Virginia, Me-
braska, Maine, Indiana. New Jersey.
Montana, New York, Nevada, Ohio.
Arizona, Maryland and perhaps Mis-
souri,. The Progressive from WASH
ington may also be factor. and Ten
nessee's factional fight which . few
years back elected Republican Gov
ernor is at least q possibility. From
which It appears that the Republican
leaders are not without reason In re-
pudiating the Democratic claim for the
continued control of the senate after
the next presidential election.

GROWING ALFALFA IN NORTH

In red clover, alfalfa has q rival In

clover luxuriates on q soil to which It
seems especially adapted and which.
while sharing with alfalfa the capacity
for supplying nitrogen, both as fer
tilizer to the soil and as q nutritive

ance under the trying conditions Of

Of alfalfa that have been sown in the

be given preference. On small farms,
