ture crop for cattle or sheep can not
be recommended for the northern pro-
jects, because alfalfa so frequently
causes loss from bloat On one of
the projects, SIS per cent of the cattle
lost during the year 1915 are known
to have died from alfalfa bloat. Losses
sustained by farmers and in expert
ments of the Office of Western Irri-
CATION Agriculture of the Bureau of
Plant Industry indicate that it is not
safe to use even small quantity of
alfalfa seed in pasture mixtures. From
the information at present available
there seems to be no doubt that its ad-
visable to conhne the selection of
pasture crops to the grasses and
clovers
There is little uniformity at pre-
sent as to the kinds of grasses and
clovers used. Some pastures contain
only a single grass and no clover,
while others have as many as seven
or eight grasses and two or three
clovers. The use of single grass or of
several grasses without clover is con-
sidered inadvisable, largely because of
low carrying capacity. The use of
several grasses which have different
habits of growth and different tenn
perature requirements assures more
nearly continuous growth throughout
the season For example, some gras--
ses will grow better during the cool
weather or in times of water shortage
than other grasses which, on the other
hand may make rapid growth when
the temperature is high or when wa
ter is abundant.
THE two clovers most commonly
used with the grasses are white and
alsike. sometimes one and sometimes
both being used. Difficulty OCCASION
ally results from clover bloat where
the clover has ben seeded too heavily
or where the conditions are especially
favorable to its growth as they are on
some of the projects. Where the pas
ture crops include several grasses and
where not to exceed two pounds per
acre of either clover seed is used, the
danger of bloat is not likely to be SER
ious: In the selection of crops for
irrigated pastures, provisions should al
ways be made for variety and high
carrying capacity, and this necessi-
tates the use of at least one clover
and preferably more than one grass"
The bulletin then devotes several
pages to pastures and MIXTURES for
various soils, method of seeding, irri-
CATION, and management.

EFFERvEscENT FRANCISCO

(From the Cleveland Pain Dealer)
Francisco Villa is such playful fell
low that one may almost regret mo-
mentarily that the dead or alive" edict
was issued against him. 1t might seem
coldly Unconditional to cut him down in
the midst of his bubbling playfulness.
One may imagine his cute rhetorical
filings at Carranza and others as he
sits with his admiring followers after
a day of strenuous murder, loot and
arson. He is remarkably clever with
his persihage and his repartee, it is
claimed.
A new evidence of Villas Astounding
good humor is recorded in recent des-
patches from chihuahua The bandit
it is declared, has put on exhibition
a diversified collection of ears cut
from the heads of Villa victoms and
plaintakingly picked, for the benefit
of posterity. This incident shows
how much more of a humorist this
rowing cut-throat is than has been
commonly recognized. We have been
thinking OF him as merely clever,
personally likable murderer, highway
man and general pug-ugly. He is
more.
Warriors of carrier days put the heads
of their victims on poles as a warning
to others who might contemplte chal-
longing their authority. To another
school dangling scalps best bespoke
military proves. Human teeth have
sometimes been esteemed trinkets by
those who extracted them from an
enemy without the formalty of an in
vitation. Villa, student of history and
psychology, if not of photography, re-
wives the best traditions of medieval
blood thirstiness. But his special de-
light is ears.
A person is supposed to express
himself freely in play. The effervescent
Villa uses the severed picked ears OF
his defeated enemies to express his
philosophy of life.
