Some women can talk about nothing
bat their children, or .what John
likes When two of these get to-
gether they simply froth at the mouth
with the joy Of comparing the inti-
mate peculiarities Of their own, A
difference in characteristics only eggs
them on; difference in habits of It'd
mess or promptness, only serves to
urge them to more personal confes-
sions and prejudices.
They surely get no pleasure out Of
one another,s words, and since they
know that the other woman is not
listening, but preparing her own little
song, it is hard TO dissect the reason
for such talk at all Yet 1t is.

because Of foxtail and crab grass COM
ing on at that time. If this had been
done last year millions Of these grass
seeds would never have matured.
"Many fields appeared to be taken
by foxtail and crab grass last year, and
their owners are wondering what to do
with them. If the field was less than
two years of age it is likely much dam
age was done. If beyond that age
there probably was plenty Of moisture
to provide for both the weeds and the
alfalfa"
There is no one tool that is decidedly
the best for cultivating alfalfa, in the
opinion of Mr.. Kenney. Any tool with
teeth and with the ability to spring up
ward or sidewise when it comes in con-
tact with alfalfa crowns should do ex-
cellent work. The spring tooth harrow
fitted with narrow teeth works sue
ceSsfully. Numerous implements are
made for the special purpose Of cult
waiting alfalfa.
The disk harrow was one Of the first
tools used for the cultivation Of alfalfa.
At one time it was highly recommend
ed for that purpose. The argument for
the disk harrow, that it splits the
crown of the plant and thereby has a
tendency to thicken the stand, does not
hold true, for in many cases the crown
is cut Off or cut open. The splitting of
the crowns causes them to partly dry
up and die and at the same time ex-
poses the living portion to the attack
of fungous diseases. which are numer-
Gus in Kansas.

HINTS FOR ALFALFA GROWERS
Precautions Must Be Taken Against
Weeds Following Sprnu Cutting.

Precautions Must Be Taken Against
Weeds Following Spring Cutting.
Farmers are warned in advance that
unless precautions are taken many al
falfa fields will be veritable seas Of
weeds following the first spring cut
ting. Due to the luXuriant growth Of
weeds in 1915, millions of seeds now
lie in the fields ready to terminate at
the first opportunity. Farmers are adj
vised to cultivate as soon as the first
crop of hay is removed from the
ground.
Removal Of the hay" says Ralph
Kenny, Instructor In farm crops in the
Kansas State Agricultural college,
Twill produce ideal conditions for the
termination Of the seed Of weed and
grass ANNALS. Something must be
done to keep the weeds from sprouting
or they may literally take the alfalfa
fields this year.

in 1915, it is profitable to cultivate aft
er the first and second crops Of hay

CARE OF HORSES.

Many horses are killed and many
more are injured by careless feeding
and watering.
Never water a horse Immediately
after feeding grain. This washes the
grain through the stomach before it Is
properly mixed with the stomach
juices and is liable to cause collie. 1t
is safer to water the horse before feed
ing grain.
If the horse Is very warm let him
drink few swallows and then hold
his head up for a minute or two and
thus cool his stomach slowly. Try 1t
yourself in hot weather. You can
drink quart of cold water without
injury if you but will take several min
utes for the first few swallows.
When horses are brought in hot from
their work they should first be given
water cautiously and then fed hay and
grain together. allowing them to exer-
else their own judgment in the selec-
ton of their feed.
While waiting for them ut the water
used in removing the harness, at least
the collar. and cooling the shoulders by
washing in cold water. Removing the
hot harness in hot barn during the
hot noon hour Is great relief to
the horse and is really worth WHILE

to remove the cloud which still persisted
over him in spite OF his election
And Austin f. Grifiiths. much agans,

forget his previous opposition TO Gill, ae-

Griiiths isn't a policeman and never

And Gill appointed Lang
Hi Gill gave his pledge, two years ago;
that he wouldn't be a candidate second

lice department. made his plans Tor en-

Griffiths was the first to announce
his candidacy for mayor. II was two or
three months ahead OF any OF the others
who entered the race. 1t was weeks and
weeks before Hi Gill. who had been say

word and not run again. finally decided
to break il and to enter the race. after all
