for the crop. Not only should he
refrain from cutting any hay but he
also should be careful not to Craze
the elfalfa too closely This applies
particularly to new stands, seeded
the preceding summer, as the fall
growing season Is the time when
4hese new fields establish their root
systems and produce sufficient grow
tn for their cold-weather protection.
This growth, which ultimately dies
and lies like blanket over the field
through the winter, will not reduce
the quality of the next cutting of
hay, but, on the contrary, will act az
a beneficial mulch.
Protecting Animals from BlOat
IL 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
hungry that they will gorge them

ing season. II is essential that a
sufficient growth be allowed to re-
main on the field to catch and hold
snow, and to afford protection to the
plants from severe winter conditions.
It is even more important that the
late growth be not cut or grazed,
since close cutting or grazing makes
II impossible for the plant to store
up the necessary reserve food ma
terial in its crown and roots. Unless
there is such reserve upon which to
draw. the vigor of the plant is great
ly impaired and II 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 morality of the plants as
lack of inherent hardness on the
part of the strain.
Late Hay Crop Loses
A common practice Of many al
falfa raisers is TO cut off crop of
hay rather late in the fall or else to
pasture the forage so heavily at this
time that adequate growth will not
be available for the protection Of the
crop during the 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 actually 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 providing
the essential warm winter clothes

ATTORNEY GENERAL
TO ASSIST STATES
POSITION IS MADE PLAIN BY
PALMER IN ISSUING ORDERS
TO OHIO OFFICIALS.
PLAY SHUTTLEC0CK SYSTEM
Administration Hopes for But Little
from Congress Unless the People
Prod Their Representatives On.

The opposition to any extension, in
the control act, is growing on the sen.
ate side. Several democratic senator's
Smith, of South Carolina; Smith, OF
Georgia, and Ransdell, Of Louisiana,
blocked action on the Palmer sugges-
tions for more power.
The senate is to be the storm cen
ter OF the resistance to the efforts to
bring the food profiteer to justice. The
light to stay the President is already
ON.
The administration hopes for very
little from Congress unless the people
prod their respective members on. It
is feared that great food handling
agencies will be able to delay first,
and then defeat any remedial legisla-
tiOn.
The serious nature of the opposition
was shown in the senate and house
committees on agriculture.
The attorney general will assist
state officials in routing food hoard
ers that cannot be reached under To-
cal statutes. He will not permit the
packers" and other big interests to
evade the law by removing stored
food from one state to another to es
cape penalties. His position was
made plain when he instructed the
representatives of the department in
Ohio to make seizures of stores of
food reported there by Governor Cox.
Immediately upon being told Of this
supply of meat, and the conditions I'M
der which it is held, Mr.. Palmer di-
rected his agents to act.
This means that Mr.. Palmer is to
take hand in carrying on the spirit
OF state cold storage laws, to prevent
the shuttle cock system Of big con-
Germs, which in sending their stocks
from state to state to hold them long

ALMOST ULT|MATUM.
SENT TO CARRANzA
Definite MOVE MADE TOWARD
LONG EXPECTED CHANGE IN
OUR MEXICAN POLICY.
BREAKING POINT APPROACHES.
Action Taken Because Of Continuance
Of Series of Murders and Outrages
of Citizens of United States.

Washington. The first definite
move toward the long expected change
in policy in dealing with Mexico was
disclosed
Carranza has been warned that if
the murders and outrages of Ameri-
cans continue, the United States "may
be forced to adopt a radical change
in it's policy with regard to Mexico"
With the announcement at the state
department, however, came no au-
thoritative indication of how far the
American government is preparing to
go to enforce what lacks only the
diplomatic technicalities Of an ulti-
matum.
The government announced it's ac-
tion by publishing an exchange of
notes with Mexico City, and prefaced
it's official statement with the expla-
nation that the diplomatic represen-
tations referred to had been taken
"in view of the long series Of MUIR
ders and outrages of American citi-
zens in Mexico, eliminating in the
murder of Peter Catron in San Luis
Potosi last month, and the perpetual
tion of other acts in disregard Of
American lives and property"

GENERAL TRAINING
MAY Be DEFEATED
$500, ,o0oo, 600 ANNUALLY FOR PRE-.
PAIRING FOR POSSIBLE WAR
TOO MUCH MONEY.
ANOTHER PLAN MAY Be TRIED
Aside from Fact That Many oppose
Any System of Military Training,
Cost Cannot be Overlooked.

Washington.-The hight cost of uni
versal military training as revealed
in the testimony of General March,
chief of staff Of the army, may have
the effect of defeating any attempt at
passing legislation providing for such
policy as a permanent American
policy.
It is possible, of course, that some
other plan can be devised that will
not confront the nation with an an
nual expenditure of $900,OOOO0 for
an indefinite period. The general
staff bill or whatever it was Secretary
of War Baker transmitted to Congress
a few days ago would provide for a
permanent regular army of SGT 900
officers and men, which would furnish
the necessary overhead for the train
ing of boys of 19 years from year to
year to the extent of approximately
65O,OOO This training would last for
three months
Probably every senator present at
General March's hearing held the view
of the chief of staff that if such a
system of training had been in effect
in the United States few years prior
to the outbreak of the world war 1t
would have ended much sooner than
it was The United States would have
been in position to mobilize huge
army at once, every man prepared for
active service after a short period Of
final training.
But universal military training and
preparedness at 100000 a year,
many times the pre-war army's ex-
penditure, is horse Of wholly diff
ferent color. Aside from the fact that
large numbers Of persons are oppos-
ed to any form of compulsory mill
tary training and more especially
compulsory service, the matter of ex-
pense cannot be overlooked.
