THE sCHUMANN QUINTET.

The Schumann Quintet, a sterling
organization OF five artists, with Carl
Lampert, for nine years first violin
In the Theodore Thomas orchestra, "a
leader, is n Of the all star attrac-
lions on the local lyceum course this
season. The great organization
brings to the lyceum a genuinely new
idea, that Of presenting symphonic
concerts" with a company of only five
musicians. The securing Of the sym
phonic eject Is brought about by the
specially constructed reed organ
Which Is carried. by the company.
This gives all the wind and reed ef-
fects of a large orchestra and, CON-
bined with the piano and stringed In.
struments produces an effect as sur
prising 70 it is unique. To create add
ed interest the quintet gives It's pro-
gram a setting Of historic costumes,
but the costuming is only incidental.

II sow later. Although alfalfa
plants start of slowly, every day
gained in termination and growth
will give better opportunity to push
the roots deeply before the days Of
scorching heat and drouth Of mid
summer. Besides that 1t insures that
the plants will have their crowns
above the surface before hard, DASH
ing rains come to puddle the granu-
lated surface and bake 1t in the; sun,
as most of our soils which are rich In
the natural elements of plant food
but short OF humus do. This elim1-
mates n Of the most fatal death
traps Of later seeding on heavy soils.
One OF the best stands of alfalfa 1
have ever seen was secured by pre-
pairing the land thoroughly the fab
before and seeding on the snow In
February.
Seed with a drill If possible and
TO a depth of one and one-half to two
inches or OF the line between the sub
son and the loosened surface. This
insures that the seed will have abund-
ant moisture to terminate eveA
though the spring turns out dry and
that the roots will Immediately pene-
trate the subsoil and that all moisture
stored therein will be available for
future use On arid lands never
plow the field in the spring before
seeding, for no amount of surface
work and packing will close the break
at the bottom Of the furrow 80 that ali
OF the moisture stored below will rise
through or above this break and be
available for a crop the roots OF
which do not penetrate the subsoil.
Capillary attraction will bring this
stored moisture 10 the furrow bottom,
but a period Of excessive drouth will
scorch the soil above this point abb
solutely dry, while Just below in the
unstirred subsoil is an abundant mois-
ture to keep life in the young plant.
1t Is always best to disc before break
ing and a su0soil attachment will help
in hard ground. e.

ALFALFA FoR rHE DEFY LANDS.
Frank T. kelsey

When the virgin prairie is to be
converted into a profitable alfalfa
field the first step Is to summer fallow
or crop the lands until the native
grasses r destroyed and the soil
STIRRED to a depth Of six or more inch
es, the deeper the better. When this
civilizing process is accomplished and
last years fallow or stubble is ready,
and before the SNOW melts from the
field have at hand a good disc har-
row, a home made float or drag and a
drill, although on some soils, the
common drag harrow will take tie
place of the disc and float.
At the earliest time the field will
work properly with the disc harrow,
usually In March or April, and before
the spring rains pack the surface soil
and destroy the porous granny con-
ditions induced by the disintegrating
and mellowtng effect Of the severe
winter freezing, go into the field and
disc thoroughly one to two and one
half inches deep but not deeper. Worn
this surface until it is reduced to a
fine granny seed bed and seed immed-
lately, preferably without a nurse
crop. II one is used, it should be a
hight seeding of wheat OF rye and be
removed early for hay, although I
have often used oats and harvested
them for grain.
! hear many say that such early
seeding Will be destroyed by the plants
freezing after termination has begun;
and that alfalfa should not endure
frost until after 1t is months old and
at least six inches high and that al
falfa seed terminates best at high
temperatures. This is only true on
lands which r low, wet or alkalf
and not adapted to the growth OF al
falfa or where seed from a strain not
suited to the climate is used. Any Of
the good strains of acclimated alfalfa
and especially seed from plants which
have been bred systematically for
hardness for a number of generations
will not be harmed in the least.
Although 1t is true that alfalfa seed
will terminate more rapidly at a
higher temperature than it will re-
ceive at this time of year, the early
seeding gets the advantage Of all the
moisture available and many hard
seeds will terminate which would not

Use COcOanut Oil
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what you wash It
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkili. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and u
very harmful. Just plain mulsihed CO.
coanut oil (Which is pure and entirely
greaseless), is much better than the
most expensive soap or anything else
you can use for shampooing, az this
can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance OF rich. creamy
lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp
Thoroughly. The lather rinses out cas-
lily. and removes every particle OF dust.

Believing that further delay in the
settlement of the Rock Island contro-
versy will prove disastrous to the Cen
trail association. steps have been taken
the case to a speedy and definite con-
clusion A message to President Will
bur from Fort Dodge prompted a call
for a special meeting fthe associa-
ton to be held this week at Cedar
Rapids, with view of determining the
personnel of the association Of this
season.
The Fort Dodge directors state that
they are ready to enter the Central
association. that they have a sufficient
amount of money TO finance a club,
and have chosen a manager. Further
delay, however will mean the with
drawal of the Fort Dodge application,
and the time is short in which to make
arrangements for the coming year. and
should the Dodgers be excluded from
organized baseball the directors feel
that they should be so informed at
ule for a semi professional team
President Wilbur Immediately ad-
vised the directors Of the other clubs
Of the situation at Fort Dodge and
asked that they join in a call for a
special meeting to be held this week
at Cedar Rapids for the purpose OF
acting on the Rock Island controversy
and the Fort Dodge application.
Should four clubs wire President JUS
tice. asking that the m Getting be called.
the league executive must heed the
call. It is believed here that three
other clubs in addition to MARSHALL
town will Join in tn call.
There is small prospect OF a deci-
sion from the national commission on
Tearney's appeal in the Rock Island
case before the end Of the week. as the
commission has delayed action for sew
eral days.

Wayne. in the Central league Boyle
has been angling for Beyers all winter.
and in securing him feels that he had
landed one of the best backstops in

Buck Beyers has for dwo years
been the first catcher and long distance
slugger OF the Fort Wayne club. and
often has been referred TO as the best
catcher in minor league baseball"

reputation as a catcher VINO can work
