Future.

Prison reform from the side of the
prisoner is the basis of a unique plan
which is now engaging the attention OF
some of the leading humanitarians OF
the country.
This plan, which has already been in
operation over two and a half years. be-
gins the work of regeneration before the
prisoner has become hardened and an
enemy Of society. 1t consists of a system
by which any prisoner who lacks friends
Is put in touch with some one on the out
side. who volunteers to correspond with
him and help him any way possible to
look forward hopefully to the expiration
OF his sentence and prepare himself for a
worthwhile place in the world.
The headquarters OF this organization,

The Washington Herald called upon the
librarian yesterday. He Is DIR. II. n.
Stokes, a chemist of international repu-
tation.
He told of how the league grew out OF
the desire of members OF a certain society
TO keep up acquaintance with each other
by correspondence. Out Of this plan
came the idea of recIaiming men who,
lost behind prison bars, and feeling that
they had no friend in the world, were
rapidly losing all hope in life. and there
by becoming dangerous to themselves and
to society.
THE majority OF the inmates of our
penitentiaries never had chance, said
| DIR. Stokes. 'They have never known
| what a decent life is. When one Of them
| wishes to correspond with an unknown
! friend outside we try to put him in touch
! with some one who will fit his partieu-
lar case. One OF our members. we'll
known lawyer, has been helping a man
to study law. This man, who is making
| fine progress in his studies, was less than
a year ago, absolutely helpless. He was
| serving a life term, and had not heard
| from a friend for five or six years. Tn
der the laws of his State he will be pa
rolled when he has served twenty years
and is now in a fair way to take an hon
orable place among men. This is only

to stir the almost lost man to regenera-

DIR. Stokes feels that there are few
better ways for those who have only a
little time to spare for reform work TO
employ their energies than to help some
| less fortunate brother who is starving
of loneliness and perhaps only waiting
| for a symps thetic word to start life anew.

the American Newspaper Publishers
Association urged by its members to
practice economy in the use of paper.
Lately the bureau of foreign and do
nestle commerce, of the department
of commerce, issued a pamphlet re-
commencing that certain kinds of
rags and waste paper should be saved
by the public, and telling how such
materials should be assorted and dis
posed of. Americans are VIGOROUSLY
careless about saving rags. In conse-
quence, our paper mills have always
been obliged to import thousands of
dollars worth of rags. 1t is well
known that the best paper is made of
rags. and the bulk of the cheaper
rades from wood pulp. If there are
no rags, the use of wood-pulp will
spread. This is undesirable, first. be-
cause it will tend to increase the cost
of paper, and, second, because it will
put great drain upon the forests
from which wood is taken for pulp
making. AS the daily production of
paper of all kinds in this country is
more than $4,000 tons, the matter is
plainly a serious one. The depart
ment of commerce appears to be JUS
titled in saying that it is the duty of
every man, woman and child to help
to relieve the situation by saving
waste materials.

VALUE OF ALFALFA
SHOWN BY RESULTS

alfalfa is the greatest stuff in the
world" says John F. Nelson, of near
Allentown, N. j., who has been grow
ing alfalfa since 1895, and who now
has 105 acres of "the finest in New
jersey" 1t took Mr.. Nelson six years
to get good stand and to learn how
to grow the crop, but since 1901 he has
had no failures with it. He says:
alfalfa fails only when you don't
treat it right"
"The advantages of alfalfa are that
when you get stand of it, you don't
have to reseed every year. How often
| do not know, as | have some that
has been moved three times each year
for six years and it is getting better
right along. 1t makes the best kind
of hay for all kinds of stock. Some
of my horses eat it before they do
their grain" declares Mr.. Nelson.
"Cows will give more milk when fed
on alfalfa hay than they will on fod-
der corn. It's grand c1Tlg for brood
sows. When fed atalfa they will
keep in fine condition on half the grain
they would use without it"
1.-The kind of soil on which to grow
alfalfa, in my opinion, is ioam of
reasonable fertility, where water will
not stand for any length of time. If
the ground is low. tile draining should
be done. Plow deep, use at least ton
of lime per acre if the soil is sour, get
the best possible seed and inoculate
either the seed or ground or both"
says Mr.. Nelson. "My farm has al
ways, until a few years ago, had a
COW to the acre, furnishing lots Of
manure. This with 600 pounds of
high grade fertilizer, drilled in, sup
plies the food for the growing plants.
The same amount is used each year as
top dressing. If We didn't have so
much manure, more fertilizer per acre
would be needed"
"The best stand of alfalfa | ever
had was on IL acres that had been in
corn two years in succession. The
ground was heavily MANFRED both
years after the corn was removed, and
the usual application of 600 pounds of
fertilizer applied. In the spring. as
early as possible. | drilled in one and
one-half bushels Canada field peas,
cut them green for cows. and in Au-
gust seeded to alfalfa" explained Mr..
Nelson. He believes that three cut
tings are best in New Jersey, but that
four cuttings per year may be obtain
ed through MARYLAND and Virginia. at
the same time leaving a good stand
over winter.
