ture the forage SO heavily at this time
that adequate growth will not be avail
able for the protection of the crop
during cold weather. The scant hay
crop which the grower gains by this
practice Of late clipping in no respect
repays him for the damage which he
usually does to his stand of alfalfa.
Every farmer should allow his alfalfa
fields to grow at random, unmolested
during the fall, as by this he is pro-
viding the essential warm winter
clothes for the crop. Not only should
he refrain from cutting any hay but
he also should be careful not to Craze
the alfalfa too closely. This applies
particularly to new stands, seeded
the preceding summer, as the fall
growing season is the time when these
new fields establish their root systems
and produce sufficient growth for their
cold-weather protection. This growth,
which ultimately dies and lies like a
blanket over the field through the
winter, win not reduce the quality Of
the next cutting of hay, but. on the
contrary, will act as beneficial mulch.
Protecting Animals from BIoat.
It Is also essential to protect the
farm live stock against bloat where
they are pastured even lightly during
the fall season on the alfalfa fields.
This is best done by never turning
the live stock on the alfalfa fields at
a time when the animals are so hun
CRY that they will gorge themselves
with this succulent green feed.

NEWSPAPERS DON'T TELL ALL
AZ Matter Of Fact, World Must Not
Be Judged by What One May
See In Print.

Through all civilized countries folks
spend a lot of their time just read
Ing the papers. And it is all right,
too. Everybody reads the papers.
But one must be, careful to keep
ones equilibrium at the same time. We
must not make the mistake of sup
posing that there is nothing else going
on In the world except that which the
papers print.
The papers publish only the news
that is startling or sensational. Nat
urally, that's all they publish. What
ever is unusual, out of the ordinary,
something that astonishes one-these
things are what the papers print.
If you were to go into a newspa-
per office with an item, say, about a
man who had reared his family care
fully, sent them to school and had
paid the mortgage off his home, the
editor wouldn't put that piece in the
paper because there is nothing unusual
about 1t.
But if the item were about a man
VINO refused TO work to support his
family, and who beat his wife over the
head with club, and who chased them
all out in the middle of the
night in the rain, then the editor would
say it was news"
So, you see, it is mostly the trou-
bles of the world, its seamy side, it's
crime and suffering and squalor that
get into the papers.
Yet, there is the worlds other side,
thank God-its bright side, its love
and gladness and charity and the help
that one man gives another.
Read the papers, of course. But,
when you read them do not get the
idea into your head that the world Is
plunging headlong to perdition, be
cause such is not the case.-Utica

WEALTH IN BAMBOO GROVES
Their Cultivation in the Southern
States Is Expected Soon to Be
Recognized Procedure.

One thinks more readily Of an Amer
.can farm with wood lot than of one
with bamboo grove, but bamboo
groves may yet become common in the
southern states, If the idea of "in-
struct the farmer" in the desirability
of planting them makes reasonable
progress. 1t will be new idea to the
farmer, and he will have to think 1t
over. Meantime the country has one
important bamboo grove flourishing in
the state of Georgia, where it stands
IN the custody of the United States
department Of agriculture, to serve as
an object lesson. The young bamboo
shoots provide an early spring vege-
table, said to have a flavor much like
that of sweet corn, and the stalks
have a wide range of uses which
should make a bamboo grove profit
able. 1t is worth the farmers consid-
Grafton, for example. that millions Of
small canes are yearly imported from
Japan, and fishing rods made out of
them, for which the United States pays
annually about S5,0OO,OO0.

WINGS FOR MRS. VANDERBILT
Soldier Admired Spirit of His Enter
talner, but Couldn't Quite
Credit the Rest

Mrs. W. X. Vanderbilt tells this story
on herself:
Size was doing canteen work in
France during the recent misunder-
standing in that vicinity, and devoted
considerable time to entertaining
American soldiers in one of the hostess
houses. Being an excellent dancer
and attractive, she was in much de-
mand among the boys. One evening
she danced several times with a tall
tow-haired doughboy who showed
symptoms of great loneliness and
talked volubly about things in Michi-
gan.
When the evening was ended, the
tow-haired one came over to Mrs.
Vanderbilt.
I've had a bully time." he said,
"and I want to keep track Of you.
We're moving out of here tomorrow
for the front. But If we get back, I'd
like to look you up over in the States.

Grand Rapids. What's yoursY

piled.

prepared by the United States Depart

When the ground is frozen, the snow
Is flying, and the wind is whistling
merry gale, your alfalfa field will prize
a warm winter overcoat under which
it will pass the cold weather in excel

riculture recommend that farmers CO.
operate as far as possible with nature
In replenishing the winter wardrobe
of this forage CROP.
There are two important reasons
why alfalfa should not be cut or grazed
close at the end of the growing season.
1t is essential that sufficient growth
be allowed to remain on the field to
catch and hold snow. and to afford
protection to the plants from severe
winter conditions. It is even more i'm
portant that the late growth he not
cut or grazed, since close cutting or
grazing makes 1t impossible for the
plant to store up the necessary re-
serve food material in its crown and
roots. Unless there is such reserve
upon which to draw, the vigor of the
plant is greatly impaired and it is not
able to withstand severe winter
weather. This is true of old as well
as of young plants, and in many cases
close cutting has been as responsible
for the mortality of the plants as
lack of inherent hardness on the part
of the strain.

Seedlings Are More Hardy and Pro-

Fruit Is Poorer.

Apricots are nearly always budded
on plum stocks. Sometimes they are
budded on the peach. 1t is said that
the apricot stocks are not as good as
either the peach or plum, especially
on land that is apt to be wet in the
spring. Seeding apricots are usually
more hardy and productive than those
that have been budded but the fruit is
not of as good quality. Seedlings
would not likely produce as good fruit
as that from which the seed was OBJ

here as with the peach. In practically

GETTING R0WLEY ALIMONY
IS VERY DIFFICULT TASK
From Fred K. Rowley But Judicial Jack7Screws
Prove Necessary to Enforce Collection

Getting alimony out Of Fred K.
Rowley seems even more difficult than
getting molasses out Of jug in the
middle of January.
A year ago last April, in the dis
trict court, Mabelle Rowley secured
an absolute divorce from Fred Z.
Rowley and alimony in the sum Of
$25 month so long as she did not
remarry. -
Mrs. Rowley filed her complaint
against her husband in January Of last
year. At the time, the defendant hus
band was required to show cause why
he should not pay temporary alimony
and attorneys fees. The late Walter
Gonska was attorney for Mrs. Row
ley.
After some legal jockeying, Rowley
filed a sworn document to the effect
that he was earning only $25 week
as clerk in a cigar store; that Mrs.
Rowley was an experienced sales
woman, able to earn SIS to $1S a
week; that she had worked in the past
at the Glass Block store; and that he
did not think he ought to come across
with even temporary alimony since
she was strong and able to work, with
earning power almost as great as his
own. He also said something about
his wife having all the furniture, the
accumulation Of six years, worth
nearly $500. Mason M. Forbes acted
as the legal counsel through whom the
defendant Rowley's representations
were placed before the district court.
Mrs. Rowley, in her complaint and
plea for absolute divorce, said that she
was 81 years of age and Rowley was
IS years Of age. They were married
in Winona, October z, 1905.
Soon after the marriage, Mrs. Row.
ley alleged, her husband treated her
inhumanly and cruelty by striking and
beating her and calling her opprobrious
names.
Mrs. Rowley further alleged that, at
one time, her lord and master struck,
choked, bruised and injured her phys
ically as we'll as in the affections.
At the time she filed her complaint,
she claimed that. for six long, weary
years Fred K. Rowley had neglected
her. He staid out and away from her.
When he spoke to her it was in an
abusive way, even calling her names
that real gentleman would not apply
to the wife Of his bosom.
In 1916, Mrs. Rowley alleged, her
husband cboked her and knocked her
down. While visiting at the house of
