Guests at The Red House were
allowed to do what they liked with

otherwise of 1t being decided by
Mark. But when once they Cor
Markl had made up their minds as
to what they wanted to do, the plan
had to be kept. Mrs. Calladine, who
knew this little weakness OF their
hosts, resisted, therefore, the sug-
gestion of Bill that they should have
a second round of golf in the after
noon, and drive home comfortaD ply
after tea.
Anthony was standing in front of
the house waiting for them. Bill

"Hallo. ILL., said Antony quiet

Bill, rather sobered by this, intro

Iadine were on the near side of the
car. and Antony spoke to them in

ALFALFA HAY

Delaying the cutting of alfalfa nm.
til 1t is nearly in full bloom has been
found better practice than moving
it soon after blooming starts. Trials
made by the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture and state ex-
pertinent station indicates that the
yields are larger over period Of
years, and that the life of the stand
is prolonged by delaying harvesting
until the plants are nearly in fnlI
bloom.
Hay made when the plants are
nearly in full bloom possibly is not
quite so palatable, but this is offset
by the gain in quantity of hay. The
fields that We're cut prior to or at
the beginning of blooming showed a
tendency to die out sooner. Outline
a crop late in the fall so that not
enough growth was left for protec-
ton in the winter also had much to
do with the thinning stands The
department recommends that alfalfa
be given time to reach a height of
six to eight inches before cold wealth
er shuts off the sap flow.
