ideas which made It acceptable. He
was named as chairman of the house

welded large influence on the final
draft of this important measure.
Mr.. McQuarrie made strenuous ef-
forts to pass through the house the
bill which would have provided a park

he did not succeed was due to the fact
that the demand for this legislation
reached Helena SO late that though

GROWING ALFALFA FOR SEED
Large Yields Obtained Where Planted in Rows and CuItivated-AIso
 Get Crop of Hay.

When alfalfa is grown in cultivated rows under dry farming conditions, the principal value of the crop is for the production of seed Large yields of seed are reported on small areas. as much as five or six bushels to the acre, This is successful method of grow ing alfalfa for seed production and 1t is possible to take a crop of hay and seed in q favorable season. The alfal- fa does not usually produce much seed the season it is soWn. In fact it should not be allowed to seed the first year because the production of seed may weaken the young plants. The second years crop may be saved for seed with good results. Alfalfa planted in rows in this way must he given clean cul- ture in order that the crop may prove successful It is Il common fault to take the seed from q regular field that was sown primarily for hay and this is bad practice these days.

Test Soil in seIectina Site.

A problem that should be solved by the wise prospective purchaser of a building site is whether the soil at the depth of the cellar is gravel clay. sand or simply rubbish and tin can filler Ii is always advisable to make such q test, even in Il familiar neighborhood
 The general character of the neigh. borhood, type of residents, restrictions if any. and whether the lot will appre- eiate in value and prove good invest- ment are other important factors to be considered in choosing a home site.
 The amount of money available for building investment will to some ex. tent determine the choice of the sites location. Sentimental, business or pro- fessional reasons frequently cause the selection of site over one just as well adapted for desirable home location. The advice of good architect is of value from the very beginning of the desire to construct home.

APPLY LIME TO ACID SOILS
Deficiency Causes Legumes, Cereals and Other Crops to Fail to Grow
 Satisfactorily.

tBy M. A. BEESON, Professor of Agron-
 omy Oklahoma A. and NJ. College, Still
 water9
 From tests that have been made of soils from various sections of the state of Oklahoma We find that there Is quite per cent of the soil that Is acid and needs lime.
 This deficiency of lime causes le- gumes, cereals and other crops to fall more the fiXation of the atmospheric nitrogen by bacterial agencies does not take place to as great an extent as It otherwise Sould. Lining would in crease to a marked degree an eff ciency of superphOsphate, organic ann monia. and sulphate of ammonia, and it may also make d small portion of potash available when used on acid soils.
 Therefore we would urge the farm CTS to have their soils tested for acid ity. and if they find the soil is acid they should apply ground limestone. which can be had very cheaply from the limestone companies of Oklahoma. If the farmers will send small sam pie of soil, one to two pounds taken from the surface down to five inches deep. to the agronomy department of the A. and NJ College. we will be glad to test this soil for acidity free of charge.

MAKING BACK PORCH USEFUL
Vines, Hsmmoeks and Plants, En- ployed With Discretion, Turn 1t
 Into Cool Resting Place.

One may easily turn his back porch to account by q little planning. To turn the back porch into n cool rest ing place the use of vines and ham, mocks and plants has proved success fHl. These forms of de.orations used with discretion cool off sle interior of the house. keeping out the heat from the scorching asphalt streets.
 Permanent wooden roofs are not necessary for verandas and improvised loggias. Awnings will easily serve this purpose in many instances. for they can be run up and down at every change of the barometer and rob the house of no sun in the winter.
 So-called front piazzas, structures that have roofs running all around the first story of house and sometimes only around one side. could have its roof flattened. hung with awnings and made into a lounging place for fam fly upstairs. X house may not pre-. sent good appearance of itself, but the piazza may make it the most in- teresting dwelling place on the street.
 A green and white awning hung from the roof makes q nice appear, ance. Boxes of red and white gerani- ums placed on the rails, fastened with vines falling on the rail adds to the artistic effect. Turkey-red curtains also add charm. Stray tables. chairs hammoeks bird cages and flowers on stands and big pots may be so ar ranged as to make comfortable lounging place.

GOATS THRIVE ON ROUGH BRUsHY WASTE

ton of distinct species as is the horse, the OK and the dog. The goat is a goat, and has been goat from away back. It's place of origin is unknown. whether Asia or Africa. It was brought to Europe long time ago. and has departed little from early type. ex- cept that care and feeding has devel- oped more milk and longer and finer hair, and in some countries the horns have been bred off. The best milk breeds have been In Switzerland where the animal has been known from the time of the stone age down to the period of the lake dwellers and to the present The best hair breed CTS are those of Asia Minor, known as the Angora.
 Depend on Goats.
 The Bedouins or Arabs possess cam els and cattle as well as horses, hut the lowly goat iS the animal on which they depend In full part for their liv- ing It thrives on desert pastures aS no other animal and from its milk is made the butter which the women use for cooking purposes. From its milk is also made the cheese which forms the base item of Bedouin food. The huttermilk Is highly esteemed by these desert folks. and it's refreshing acid makes it one of the most invieor- ating drinks that one can get in Arabia.
 The number of goats under domesti- cation In the world is estimated at 11S.0O0.000. From the most distant times the goat has been the poor mans COW" but has been replaced hy sheep with the increase of prosperity. Tn the United States. with the eXcep- tion of the large Angora herds in the Western states. goats are generally kept only in small herds.
 It is more abundant in India than any other country. followed in turn by Turkey. South Africa. Russia. Argen- tine and Mexico. The Yearbook of the United States department of agrieul- ture for 1916 prints a map showing the worlds distribution of goats.
 The last biennial report of the Flor ida department of agriculture shows goats in scattered numbers, in nearly every county. total of some 50,000.

cept the leader of the first squad, give the command Right oblique." If the company is at halt, the corporal ot the first squad commands Forward Gle usually does this anyhow, for the instruction of his men, although it is not required by the regulations if the column already is marching) Al march," the command of execution from the captain, the first squad moves straight to the front, while the real squads each oblique as indicated.
 When the leading squad has ad vanced the desired distance. the com mand 'halt' is given by the captain The squad halts, and the corporal gives the command Left dress" Each of the succeeding squads when, by obliquing to the right, has reached a point opposite its position in line, marches "forward' at the command of it's corporal; by this command it is also halted and executes the left dress" All dress on the first unit in line.
 In this movement it will be observed lthat there is a variation from the usual series of commands. For exam pie, although we have right front into line" followed by right ohique," this is not brought to a conclusion with right dress" but with LEFT DRESS" Yet the reason is obvious to the new soldier when he hts once seen the movement executed. The lead ing squad, remember, marches straight to the front and the other squads oblique to the right. This causes them to form on the right of the first squad when they reach the line The first squad, therefore-the squad upon which all the others are to drese-is now established at their left. It is necessary, then to give left dress"

LIMITING SIZE OF CITIES
Speakers at Town Planning Confer ence Place Ideal Population for
 Municipality at 100000.

Rodney II. Brandon, speaking before the Ad club on the worth in dollars and cents of q citizen to q community In which he lives. declared that the in habitant value decreases in proportion 10 the increase in population. says the Des Moines Capital The larger the city, after n population of 25,000 has been reached, the less is each inhabi. tant worth 10 the property owners.
 This brings up the question, which Is receiving more serious attention ev. cry year, of how large our cities should be.
 At the recent national conference op town planning in Kansas City q speak. er from Dallas declared that his ambi tlon was to see Dallas with a popula. tion of 100000, and that he did not want it to become any larger. Other speakers coneurred in the idea.
 A city of 100000 has all the urban advantages the individual could want It has parks and modern playgrounds the best there Is in stores factories residences. transportation facilities and the other accomplishments and eonveniences of the modern metropo lis.
 The ideal plan would be to require n certain area of agricultural land tc each community according to its popu lation. Then when city reached it's maximum. it would have te branch out

To Protect the Shins.

Did you ever come home in the dark and break your shins against the furni- ture while groping for the electric light switch? Doubtless you did. To save shins and furniture and needless pro fanity an electrical manufacturing company has perfected light switch that glows in the dark. The effect is secured by the inclusion of very minute quantity of radium compound in one of the screws of the switch When the light is turned on by pull chain the radium is included in the lit tie ball on the end of the chain. Either of these devices shines like a tiny star in a dark room.

THE TWO MOST DIFFICULT COM
 PANY MOVEMENTS.

We now come to the two company movements most difficult to master They are lon right Qeft) into line" and right IefD front into line" Both movements must be executed from col umn of squads.
 To form the company line on the right or left from the column of squads, the command is "On right Oeft) into line MARCH. Com pany, HALT. FRONT !"
 At the preparatory command from the captain, the corporal of the first squad gives his own men the command Right turn" ;" the corporals of the re- maining squads give 'Forward." At MARCH" the command of execution, the leading squad turns to the right on q moving pivot-that is, it executes right turn" as taught in the school of the squad.
 The command Halt" is given when the first squad has advanced the de- sired distance in the new direction This command is from the captain, and will halt the whole company squad
  place themselves in line with the lead ing squad. As soon as the halt is ex- ecuted by the first squad, the corporal commands, "Right dress," and the squad continues to remain at the right dress until the movement is completed by the company and the capsain orders front after confirming the company alignments.
 The other squads, in obedience to the command "Forward" from their eorporals, continue to march straight to the front until each is opposite the right of it's place in the line. It then executes right turn at the command of the corporal, and is halted on the line at the command of its corporal. He then gives, "Right dress.' Each unit in succession dresses on the first unit in line.
 To form company line in the front, when in column of squads, the com mand would be, Right QefD front into line, MARCH. Company, Halt -. FRONT' At the pre- paratory command, all corporals, ex-

CHANGING THE DIRECTION OF
 THE COMPANY.
 Copyright. 1917. by the Wheeler SyndIcata Incl

Being in column of squads and wish ing to change direction, without resort ing to the more cumbersome company front-cumbersome if the space is linn ited, and altogether impossible if marching on road-the captain of a company gives the command, Column right 0eft), MARCH r' This is exc cuted as right turn" in the school of the squad; that is, each rank turns to the right separately on a moving pivot and continues the advance without fur ther command.
 Being in line if it is desired to form column of squads, and at the same time to change direction. one command is as follows: Squads right Ceft, col umn right GefD, MARCH !" In this case, the extreme right squad initiates Chat is, begins) the column right as soon as it has completed squad right," " and the other squads follow with a right turn. As far as the change of direction is concerned, it will be seen by Squads right 0eft) about" which would completely reverse the front :; but this would bring the company back in line, exactly as before, whereas the present requirement was to throw the company into column of squads as well as to change the direction.
 The second of the two ways in which company in line can form column of squads and at the same time change direction is indicated by the command, Right QefO by squads, MARCH !" At march" the right squad marches for ward; the remainder of the company executes squads right, columns left" and follows the right squad.
 Being either in line or in column of squads, if it is desired either to face or march to the rear these commands may be given: Squads right QefD about, MARCH ,' or Squads right 0efD about, MARCH. Com pany, HALTl" In the first command, it is apparent that the march is to continue, but in the opposite direction. In the second command, the company is to halt as soon as the movement is completed, and results in q simple reversal of front.
 If the company is in column of squads, the file closers-that is, ad- ditional men not included in the for nation of squads-turn toward the col umn and take their posts, which con tinue to be on the right of the line at the end of the front rank of squad. If the company is ill line, the file closers dart through the nearest interval between squads and take their posts in the rear of the company.
 To march the company to the rear for few paces. backward march, may be given. but 1t is difficult for company in line to keep the line dressed in this movement. so that it is preferable to command. About FACE Forward, MARCH |"
 In this case, no further movement is executed until the line is brought to q ilalt and faced to its original front. If in line, the guides place themselves in the rear rank, which has now be- come the front rank. The file closers, facing about, maintain their relative positions. The reason that the guides change to the rear rank is that their business at all times is to steady and guide" the line In order to do this. they must be in the rank which at the moment is leading the company. .
