Hints From Gladstone.

Gladstone was once asked to give some suggestions for platform aspir- ants and 1t is said that it was atten- tion to these rules which in no small degree accounted for GIadstone's own power in "swaying audiences: 1. Study plainness of language, always preferring the simpler word. 2. ShOrtness of sentences. 8. Distinctness of articulation. 4. Test and question your own arguments beforehand, not waiting for critics or opponent. 5. Seek a thorough digestion of and familiarity with your subject, and rely mainly on these to prompt the proper words. 6. Remember that if you are to sway an audience, you must, be- sides thinking out your matter, watch 1t all along.

INCREASE IN ALFALFA CROPS
Larger Yields Secured by Oregon and
Washington Farmers by Appli-
cation Of Sulphur.

Farmers In Oregon and Washington
have greatly increased their alfalfa
crops by the application of sulphur.
This practice is based upon the re-
suits of investigations by the expert
ment stations in these states as well
as upon demonstrations of the use of
sulphur on alfalfa conducted by the
county agricultural agents in co-opera-
ton with specialists from the agricul-
tural college. In Deschute county last
year 2S5 tons of sulphur were used,
at total cost of q little more than
$4,000, and the increased yield, reck-
oned at $50 q ton, was $4,000. In
Jackson county 277 tons. costing
about $4,000, are estimated to have
increased the yield $4,000. In Kla-
math county 9S tons, costing $500,
gave an estimated increase of 10000,
reckoning alfalfa at SIS ton. Dem
onstrations in Josephine. Wallowa and
Wasco counties give similar ratio
of results. The first experiments in
sulphur fertilization in these states
were made in 1912 Rapid develop
ment of the innovation was made pos
sible through the system of county
agents and key men who were practi-
cal farmers.
