Because of the construction which has been placed upon the interschol- astic rules governing football by the faculty of the Tucson high school, the game which was to have taken place between Phoenix Union High school and the pueblo town tomor- row has been cancelled Principal Van der Nries of Tucson is said to have cited the clause, infringement of all athletic events must be vested in teachers or students which, ac- cording to his interpretation, means that Phoenix is breaking the rules in employing Coach Geary to in struct the local boys.

ALFALFA GROWING
PROVES 4 SUCCESS
County Agents Urge a Well
Prepared Seed BED.
LINING is NECESSARY
The Soil Should Be lnoculated And
Well Fertilized For the Best
Results.

College Park, July I'm view OF
the many successful demonstrations
in growing alfalfa conducted by Mary
land farmers in cooperation with their
county demonstration agents, there
will be a considerable increase in the
acreage seeded this year, That it is
most important to give careful atten-
ton to details in seeding alfalfa has
been repeatedly proven and in a cir
sylar issued by the Maryland Agricul-
tural Extension Service, W. B. Kemp,
specialist in farm crops, brings the
attention Of alfalfa growers to num-
Der of important facts. Mr.. Kemp
says:
Alfalfa requires much more COM
plete drainage than do other farm
crops. Land inclined to be wet and
springy in winter and early spring,
although dry enough during the grow
ing season to produce good crops OF
corn, wheat, oats and grass, is not
drained well enough for alfalfa. On
such land alfalfa is sure to be killed
out sooner or later by heaving due 10
the frequent freezing and thawing so
common some seasons.
"Liming for alfalfa is absolutely nee.
essary on practically all Maryland
soils; even in the natural lime stone
sections. It makes little or no differ
ence what kind OF lime is used if the
proper amount Of each is applied. II
is a question of cost and ease OF hand
ling rather than the effect upon the
alfalfa.
1.-THE amount of lime to use under
average conditions is one ton per acre
OF caustic lime; /. e., burnt stone or
lump lime, ground lime or burnt oys-
ter shells. Hydrated lime should be
used at the rate Of $500 to 2700 pounds
and ground lime stone or ground oys-
ter shells should be applied at the
rate Of $500 pounds to tons per acre.
"The best time to apply lime is ths
season before sowing the alfalfa II,
however, this is not convenient or is
impracticable, it may be applied just
before, or even after seeding, with
the assurance of good results and no
injury"
