ALFALFA AND HOGS

Alfalfa as feed for hogs will
produce more pork per acre than any
other forage crop grown in Kansas, /"
asserts Ray Gatewood, instructor in
animal husbandry in the Kansas
State Agricultural college.
by experiments conducted on the
college farm" says Mr. Gatewood,
ut was shown that ITO pounds of
green alfalfa, cut and fed in dry lot,
was equal to 100 pounds of corn. Six
pounds of corn was necessary to pro-
duce one pound of pork, so the ITO
pounds of alfalfa produced 16 2-3
pounds of pork. Estimating that
during the season an acre of alfalfa
will yield 10000 pounds of green
hay, this, II cut and fed green with
corn, would make 1000 pounds of
pork. Figuring the pork at cents
a pound, it would mean that an acre
of alfalfa was worth $3.50.
I'm a winter experiment, 100
pounds of alfalfa hay displaced SO
pounds of corn. Five pounds of corn
was necessary for one pound of pork,
and therefore the 100 pounds of al
falfa made 10 pounds of pork. The
average annual yield for alfalfa hay
is about four tons per acre. This fed
in connection with corn would make
1000 pounds of pork, or 500 an acre
for alfalfa hay.
I'm an experiment on pasturing, it
was shown that an acre of alfalfa
pastured for 1913 days produced 591.S
pounds of pork. Care should be TAX
en- not to pasture too closely as al
falfa will not stand heavy foraging.
1t is best to so pasture that at least
two cuttings of hay may be taken off
in addition to that eaten by the
hogs"

square deal for the farmer led him to
make research abroad, and out of his
efforts grew the International Insti-
tute of Agriculture at Rome. This
institution does for the staples of agri-
culture of the world what the Ameri-
can Chamber Of Commerce does for
the products of the American manu-
facturer.
Through his connection with the In
ternatiOnal Institute of Agriculture
Mr.. Lubin became interested in the
rural credit systems Of Europe and
led the movement which resulted in
the passage of the Rural Credits by
the Wilson Administration.
Just before departing for Italy, re-
Gently, Mr.. Lubin authorized an inter-
view of 1000 words in which he gave
his opinion of those acts of the Wilson
Administration which directly affect
the farmer, his home and his market.
This interview has been furnished
without cost to every leading farm
paper in the United States. If the
farmer does not read 1t in his farm
paper 1t will probably be because the
Editor does not care to use his col
tmns for discussion of economic ques-
tons and government policies that
vitality affect the interest of the farmer.
Mr.. Lubin said: "In the applica-
ton of business methods of distribu-
ton, America, until the present Ad-
ministration, was about $50 years be-
hind Germany and several decades be-
hind the rest of Europe. And yet in
the very thing in which America is
backward, she should lead the world.
She does not, because clique of spe-
cial interests dictated public opinion
and controlled legislation through the
bosses of the Republican party. So
cleverly have they worked that the
average man is hypnOtized, his criti-
cal faculties dulled.
president Wilson is neither fooled
nor led by this crowd. He is tire
less, patient, far-seeng. He has
historic sense of the past, sympa-
hectic sense of the present and q
prophetically spiritual sense of the fu-
ture. While his head is above the
LIQUIDS. his feet are always upon the
Earth. He is idealistic on the one
side, on the other practical. He Is a
good business man.
HE knows that good politics and
good economics are the same thing
He is fearless; in all my relations With
him, direct or indirect, fail to find
anything or anybody he is afraid Of"

ROBINS DECLINES TO MEET
MRS. FUNK IN DEBATE
Brilliant Woman Progressive Support
Ing Wilson Had Challenged Hughes
Convert to Match Reasons.

Raymond Robins, who was chair
man of the recent Progressive Ma
tional Convention in Chicago, has de-
clined the challenge Of Mrs. Antoin-
cite Funk to meet her in public debate
on the reasons why Progressive voters
should be asked to vote for Charles
q. Hughes when President Wilson
is in the field. In his refusal Mr..
Robins indicated that he would de-
cline all offers to match logic with
opponents on the question of Pro-
gressive activity in this presidential
campaign.
Mrs. Funk is a lawyer in Chicago
and was one of the prominent leaders
Of the Progressive movement so long
as Colonel Roosevelt remained at the
head of 1t. She and Mr.. Robins
fought side by side for Progressive
principles and she was one of the
most active campaigners for Mr.. Rob-
ins in the Senatorial campaign in nli-
nois two years ago.
Mrs. Funk now is member of the
Associate Committee of Progressives
cooperating with the Democratic Ma
tional Campaign Committee. She puts
her challenge to Mr.. Robins on the
high ground Of public service, asking
that her former associate submit the
case of Wilson VS.. Hughes to popu-
lar juries.
In her letter to Mr.. Robins, Mrs.
Funk said:
"In 1912, endorsing the Progressive
party with my whole heart 1 left be-
hind me tradition of middle western
and New England Republicanism
and when the end came In the Audi
forum last June, l followed Theodore
Roosevelt to the door of the Republi-
can camp with faith that the Republi-
can party Of 1915 was In somewise
different from the Republican party
Of 1912 that he and you and I con-
demned and I waited for a sign that
would point the new way. 1t did not
come, but events momentous in their
import did transpire and against my
inclinations and traditions and against

born, ! suffered terribly with womanly
troubles and nervousness, and was
living in a state Of fear all the time.
One day, an old friend Of nine,
who, by the way, is a nurse, and goes
around to all cases, brought me . bot
tie Of Cardui, the woman's tonic, and
told me to keep on taking Il right
along. I did, and felt much better
after the first bottle. ! kept on tax
ing it, and had as little trouble a.
anybody could wish for. Feeling very
good now.
There never was better medicine
Tor women than Cardui, and ! will
recommend It to any one who Ia In
need Of It. This nurse uses Cardui
with her patients, so it Is well known
all around here.
! am never without q bottle Of
Cardui in my home"
We urge you to try Card-u-i, the

Will help you over the hard places.

FEELS HISTORY IN THE MAKING

AS a war correspondent for an
estern paper D. l.. Patterson, profess
sor of European History in the Uni
versity of Kansas, spent two months
last summer in France and on the
western front, observing and feeling
history in the making. He returned
to America early in September to re-
sumo his work at X. U. Professor
Patterson told of his experiences in a
lecture this week to the student body.
II not only saw history in the max
ing" he said, "but l felt 1t in the
making, We were in French first
line trench on the Rheims sector, 200
yards from the German trenches.
From this trench we went down a
steep tunnel to dugout about fifty
feet below the surface of the earth.
The dugout was large enough to hold
about hundred men. From 1t sec
ond tunnel sloped upward and in the
direction of the German trenches. We
went up this second tunnel to little
machine gun pit about two feet deep.
We lifted up the screen of leaves and
brush that hid the pit and crawled
out into the grass. In front of us was
belt of wire ENHANCEMENT about
seventy-five feet wide. The wire and
the grass concealed us pretty we'll so
long as we lay fiat, but we had no
protection from shells or bullets.
Whether or not is was history, / felt
something quite keenly as lay out in
front Of the German trenches less
than 200 yards away"
Professor Patterson's lecture was
the first of series of monthly lee
lures to be given by members of the
faculty, arranged by Dean Olin Temp
lin. It has been a custom in X. u.
and many universities to bring high
priced speakers for these general
talks to students. Dean Templin be-
lievesyt the college faculty comprises
as capable speakers as might be OBJ
tanned from other available sources
and there is no expense to having
them give general lectures. The Oc-
tober lecture will be on Greece's place
In the European political situation.
Subsequent lectures will be on indus
trial, economic, political and arts sub
jects by capable authorities.
