the kidneys of the animal As medI- cine for people when measured in the right dosage, it is a marvellous reme dy for many kinds of kidney and blad der troubles. This saponin also is vegetable soap. A few grains placed in water will make large soap bubbles. In soda water, it makes strong bead, ' which reminds one of the days gone never to come again.
 "One of the newer discoveries in all falfa is the oil from the seed, which is commercial for several uses. 1t is very palatable and can be used for salads or cooking purposes. It is an excellent laxative and has other uses as a medi- cine. It is also an excellent lubricat- ing oil for fine work It is nearly as fat" as cotton seed
 It was an original idea of MT. Bow CT to place the best portion of alfalfa into such forms as candy, chewing gum, soft drink, etc., for people The flavors that are unpalatable in the raw" state, are dressed up and made very lilseable

WOMAN RECOvERS
 PERSONAL EFFECTS

A satisfactory settlement was made by Justice Wheeler yesterday when he returned to Mrs. M. R. Candy her trunk, hat trunk and umbrella and ordered Mrs. Candy to pay M. J. Nor ley the balance of the rent due him for a Country club cottage which she leased The amount involved was something like SIS and Morley held the personal belongings of Mrs. Candy i'll lieu of the rent. Both paid their own costs of the action.
 An interesting feature of the case was the appearance in court of Mrs Morley who appeared as a witness for her husband, against whom she has brought divorce proceedings. The matter having been settled, Mrs. Nor ley's testimony was not required nor that of many of the other witnesses who had been subpoenaed and wLu were present in the court room. in cluding Billy Cochran. entertainer at the well known club house conducted by Morley.

meet at their headquarters to consider the formation of a post of the Amer ican legion.
 All men who have served in the United States army, navy or marines, whether members of the local Great War Veterans association or not, are urged to be at the headquarters in the War Work building at 7:30 to help re- organize the association into what may be called the Frank Luke Post of the American Legion.
 The legion is as unselfish, as pa triotic as high American ideals can make it. The meeting or conference in St Louis where it was organized was "hopeless" from the standpoint of a practical politician, for it was not pol i itical.
 | It intends to hold together the men who fought for the country, and to help 1 them apply to the benefit of themselves
 and their country the lessons in service they learned of unselfish devotion.

TEMPE G|RL WE'D TO FORMER RESIDENT
 AT PRETTY SERVICE

One of the most impressive cere- monies of the month was read by Rev. George NJ. Lehigh. pastor of the First Baptist church of Phoenix. at o'clock Sunday afternoon at the home of MT. and Mrs. Candy of West Eighth street, in Tempe, uniting in marriage their daughter Violet and John c. Cudd of Hazelton. Idaho.
 Miss Candy has lived in Tempe for the past few years, and has been a great favorite both in social and school circles She graduated from the high school with the class of 1918; and for the past year has been employed in the office of Assistant Attorney c. M. Candy in Phoenix. MT. Cudd left Phoenix four years ago for Idaho and has just received his discharge from service.
 Only the family and a few intimate friends witnessed the ceremony after which dainty refreshments were served. Mir. and Mrs. Cudd will leave the latter part of the week for the new home in Idaho, with the well wishes of their host of friends.

into the untitled soil and brings up and stores away about everything that is needed to make the~animals grow big, strong, and fast
 A pet theory of Mr. Bower, which he has tried out quite to his own satis- faction, is that alfalfa will make a larger and stronger child, the same as it does a larger and stronger pig or calf The pigs stomach is shaped the same and the gastric juice VII analyse the sasne as that of a child. This al- falfa ash contains so many of the in organic salts needed for the growth of the animal, such as phosphate of lime potash, magnesia, silica, etc. which are used to build the frame of the pig, for example. Why not the same building effect in the child's growth, he argued.
 Tt is hard to grasp the fact that in every ton of alfalfa there are 200 pounds of mineral" said the speaker, while in wheat or corn there is but one per cent or 20 pounds. The long root of the alfalfa gets this large amount of mineral from depth.
 "A field of alfalfa is beautifully green to the eye continued Mir. Bower. Yet few people know what the color ing is or what part it performs in the plant structure It is the chlorophyll, which undoubtedly has lot to do in the storing of the free nitrogen of the air in the plant. It also governs the bitter principle of flavor to a large eX- tent. Light green alfalfa are not so bitter as the dark green plants. This principle determines the method to pursue in bringing out a new alfalfa plant for human food purposes, by se- lection There is about 6S of one per cent of chlorophyll by weight, in al- falfa.
 Tn the root, seed and the plant it. self, there is a large amount of saponin which is the real bitter principle. Ii is the medicine that acts so strong on

KIWANS CLUB HEARS
 MUCH ABOUT LFALFA
 AT WEEKLY MEETING

Members of the Kiwanis club learned considerable about alfalfa yesterday at heir regular meeting at the War Work luilding following luncheon. Frank W. Bower was the principal speaker, his subject being "The Chemistry of AL ralfa."
 Arthur T. Esgate was chairman of he meeting which was well attended. J. c. Dobbins led a discussion concern ing the problem of lowering the under ground water which is imperriling the lands of the valley. The Water Users lssociation having rejected the propo- sition of the city to operate the pump ng plants which the city planned to ustall, it remained for the city to in- tall and operate their own plants. it Fas advanced. It was decided to take urther action along this line at the ext meeting of the club.
 "The alfalfa plant" said Mir. Bower n his talk on that product raised in uch abundance in the Salt River Val ey. has the longest root of any other Jlant that grows. In Washington, D. c., there is a root 127 feet long. l have ound them 30 feet long. They grow rom 10 to 15 feet long in the valley. This long root makes of the plant a cal chemical laboratory.
