A TIMELY SUBJECT.

On page two of today's paper we
print from Hoard's Dairyman an art
'icle to which The Democrat recently
called attention. 1t is entitled
From Stone Fences to Alfalfa" and
was written by Prof. Lawrence Gra-
Der of the Agricultural department
of the University of Wisconsin. The
article deals with a subject which is
of the utmost Importance to the peo-
pie of southwestern Wisconsin. 1t
is clearly shown that the old Or
der of farming has changed, and that
dairying, and not grain growing, is
what our land owners must now en-
gage in for profit and prosperity.
Canada thistles in many places have
become menace to farmers, and the
necessity of fighting these pests by
growing of alfalfa is pointed out. as
is also the Importance of the use of
lime to fit the soil for growing alfal-
ia.
