full Stand.

Alfalfa is one of the great lime
lovers. Reports made to the Iowa ex-
pertinent station Indicate that in an
average Of over thousand fields,
those which received no lime yielded
"a tons to the acre, while those that
received lime before seeding yielded
at the rate of four tons to the acre,
and those which received lime after
seeding. at the rate of 3.S tons to the
acre. Lime generally pays for itself,
even on soils which are fairly rich in
lime, and on soils which are at all acid
it is absolutely essential to successful
alfalfa growing to spread lime at the
rate Of one to two tons to the acre.
The easy way to spread it is with
lime spreader. With the increasing
use of lime, there should soon be IA
lime spreader in every community in
the corn belt.

PREVENT sCoURS IN CALVES
Cause of Great Loss to Darymen Is
Due Almost Entirely to Over
feeding or Dirty Pals.

The most fatal disease in calves is
the scours. This simple trouble is the
cause of our great loss among the
calves during the first four or five
months. 1t is owing almost invariably
TO one of two things: either overfeed-
ing. or feeding from dirty pals. The
first thing TO do when this appears is
to cut down the feed and cleanse the
pals thoroughly.
Scours are sometimes caused by
feeding sour milk and then sweet milk.
A good calf can be raised on sour milk
if he is fed sour milk all of the time
after he is month old and the milk
is in the same degree of sourness when
fed, but no one can raise a good calf
on sour milk one feed and sweet milk
the next.
And no person can raise bunch of
good calves who feeds from dirty pals

BURSTING HEAD OF CABBAGE
Trouble Caused by Rapid Growth and
May Be Prevented by Breaking
off Some Of Roots.

Many persons growing their own
vegetables have experienced consider
able annoyance in having a large num-
ber of fine heads of cabbage to burst,
before the vegetable can be used or
marketed.
The bursting is caused by rapid
growth. and usually occurs after a
warm rain which has followed n dry
spell. 1t is surprising how rapidly the
heads will split and push out from
the center. which is damaging unless
the cabbage is used at once.
To prevent cabbage from bursting,
go to each head. and pull it just
enough to break large number of the
small rootlets, but not enough to al
low the head TO fall or lean very much
to one side. This will lessen the
amount of moisture and food taken
into the plant and the development of
the head, and consequently the burst
ing Will cease. In most cases the cab
bage will remain perfect and unin-
jured, and can be sold or used before
any damage results.
Heads of cabbage about to burst, or
even those showing the first split, can
be kept for several weeks, without
damage by simply following the above
instructions carefully.

REESE BROTHERS MINSTRELS
AT LAYERING THIS WEEK

The Reese Bros. players who are
appearing at the Lavering this week,
are notably superior to any talent of
that character. The old humdrum
jokes and belated minstrel comics are
conspicuous by their absence in this
show and each member of the COM
pany is an artist in the goth century
entertainment. Arthur Reese, an
amusing conversationalist, is one of
the most characteristic numbers of
the company, while Florence Blue,
Major Bailey and Jessie Reese are
blessed with beautiful voices and
their efforts are those of players who
are sincerely desirous of pleasing
their audiences. JOpie Murray is
dancer extraordinary His antics are
mirth provoking while at the same
time he is capable of some amazing
foot work The tango dancers are
immense. Tom Davis and Ollie Reese
are clever end men. The Reese Bros
are gun jugglers with no superiors.
The show as a whole is first class.
They appear at the Lavering theatre
Friday and Saturday.

METHODS OF DOCKING LAMBS
Burning With an Iron Is Favored by
Kansas E~pert-Wound Is Scared
and Doesn't Bleed.

When docking lambs the four feet Of
the animal should be held together
tightly against the body of the opera
tor. points out A. M. Paterson, instruc-
tor in animal husbandry in the Kan
sas State Agricultural college.
There are two methods of docking.
One is by cutting off with a sharp knife
and the other is by burning with a
docking iron. The latter is preferred,
especially if the lamb has large tail.
The hot iron sears over the wound and
prevents bleeding. If the lambs are
old it is well to tie a string around the
stump to prevent bleeding.

TWIN FALLS PLEASED
THAT MCCLURE is COMING
Noted Author and Authority On Inter
national Situation VIII BE Warml.
Welcomed.

The announcement that S. s. Nc
Clure, the noted magazine editor and
author of works on international law
would lecture in this city late in Oc-
tober, or early in November, has
aroused great deal of interest in
this city. The announcement that the
lecture would deal with the attitude
of the masses of Japan toward Ameri-
ca and toward the great war has still
further tended to focus interest on the
event. The wide reputation of the
lecturer is indicated by the fact that
has books on international subjects
have received the most unqualified
commendation from the most cOmpe-
tent critics. The following comm da-
tory notice under the headiu An
Impartial Judgment on the " by
the Nation" a most conservative lit
erary journal, of the highest class, on
a book by Mcclure just published. en-
titled obstacles to Peace" is indie
ative of the character of the lecturer
and his qualifications to deal with
all phases of the international prob
lens connected with the war:
In respect of its contents this book
is probably the book of the year in
the field of the literature of the war.
One reads its pages rapidly, since it
is difficult to stop before the end
and so admirable is the information
contained in it and so poignant the
lessons revealed that we devoutly
wish, as a matter of public service,
that it might be recommended from
one to another, and read as widely as
possible everywhere, up and down
through the land. The author had
unusual facilities for getting infOrma-
ton, and he is able to give to his work
an additional and particular value
from the fact that he spent many
months in the warning countries dur
ing the progress of the conflict, and
because, owing to his high standing
and through the influential acquain-
tance which he had formed, unrivalled
opportunities were given him for ac-
quiring knowledge about public opin-
ion and the general conditions which
prevailed. The book is written with
clearness and vigor, and the writing
seems iudiciOus and correct In all

TELL ALFALFA FROM CLOVER
Formation Of Leaf Enables One to Dis
tinouish Plants While Young
Longer When Old.

CTrom the United States Department OF
Agricultural
The leaf of alfalfa is divided into
three leaflets, the middle one of which
has a short stem. differing in this re
spect from red and alsike clOvers, in
which the center leafiet is attached di-
rectly at the base.
This difference in the two plants
readily enables one to distinguish al,
falfa from red clover when the plants
are very young.
AS the plants become older the leaf
let's of the alfalfa become more elOn-
gated than in the clOvers.

COMFORTS FOR WORK HORSES
Proves Small Pasture Which They
Can Be Turned Into After Days
Work-Does Them Good

One of the best things you can do
Is to provide a small pasture for your
work horses. 1t should be near the
barn so the hOrses can be easily
turned into it each night after they
come from the field. A bite of green
grass, a roll and an hour or two out
in the open viii do them a world of
good. On hot nights leave them out
all night. The work the following day
can be much more easily done if such
comforts are provided.

THIN OUT THE STRAWBERRY
Most Common Mistake to Allow Plants
to Become Too Thick-Row
Becomes Solid Mass.

Possibly the most common mistake
made in the growing of Strawberries
is that of allowing the plants to be-
come too thick.
Most varieties of Strawberries when
properly cared for produce so many
runners that the row becomes a solid
mass of plants.
When this is the condition the grow
er is producing plants at the expense
of fruit.

There are three of these squadril'

but the others have been dismembered
and their units attached to orhsr
arms of the aerial service. Squad
rillas one and two are generally trans.
ported by train from place to place,
wherever they are most needed.
There are from 40 to so machines
In each squadrilla, which when com.
plete and ready for action, is divided
into four or five sections. Each air.
plane is armed with two machine guns
and each carries bombs weighing from
20 to 100 pounds apiece. Some are
said to carry bombs that weigh more
than 200 pounds.
While perfecting their service In
the air, the Germans have also rapid
ly bettered their anti-aireraft meas.
ures and weapons. The 77-miIimeter
guns have given way to rapid.firing
guns of 105-milimeter caliber, and at
certain points along the front they
use shrapnel guns of 240-milimeter
size.
They possess special bullets for the
destruction of captive balloons, but

GIVES RESUME
OFPROMOTION
WORK EFFECTED

Retiring from the secretaTyship o.
the Promotion Committee, A. P. Tay-
Tor gave general report OF his four
years work TO the committee Thurs
day afternoon. The report was ap-
proved and accepted.
Mr.. Taylor has been a consistent
booster for the islands throughout his
service on the Promotion Committee
and while he has served the work has
steadily grown more extensive. To
the advertisement of Kilauea and
HaIeakala, and general publicity work
on the islands, Mr.. Taylor devoted
much Of his energy while in office. He
has done much to increase travel TO
those points by persuading the Great
Northern company to run their boats
by way OF Hilo on their run TO Homo
lulu.
Hawaii has been on the crest OF
the popularity wave with magazines
and newspapers, and being more or
less remote, as far as editors and
writer's are concerned, and TO some
extent still being confused with the
romantic South Seas, Hawaii has been
given vast amount Of friendly pub.
licity in publications, paralleling other
publicity by other sections of the
country, which has had to be paid
for" states Mr.. Taylor in his report
The time is approaching, however,
when the Hawaii Promotion CON-
mittee must face the problem OF paid
publicity. The magazines are more
and more becoming insistent upon re-
ceipt Of compilations concerning Ha'
waii, to ask for advertising in con'
nection Herewith"
That the plan for Pacific-American
Union should be pushed by the Pro
motion Committee, is the belief Of Mr.
Taylor who is largely responsible for
the plan. -.
Mr.. Taylor leaves office this week.
His place will be taken by Fred J.
