Cut Alfalfa Soon After
It Lodges, SAYS Expert

Just what is the best time to cut
alfalfa for hay, all things considered
Is problem which farmers and agri-
cultural experiment station workers
have not definitely solved, according
to A. G. Army, field crops specialist
OF the Minnesota Agricultural Experi-
ment station in talk before q group
of scientists at the Minnesota station.
About one thing, however, Mr.. Army
was emphatic, and that was that al
falfa should be cut very soon after
1t lodges. as 1t does generally in Min
nesota. The reason for this is that
when the crop lodges the leaves un-
derneath turn yellow and fall off and
the hay produced Is decidedly inferior.
In 1924 alfalfa cut before lodging re.
tained so per cent Of It's leaves. while
alfalfa cut after lodging retained only
"a per cent.
Mr.. Army, therefore, advises the i'm.
mediate cutting Of alfalfa that has
lodged, even If it is only in the bud
stage.

Hogs are marked BY clipping the
numerals on the top of the shoulder,
oack, or rump. using only such com
Dlnations as can be made with four
marks or less. Or they may be marked
on the side of the shoulder, body, or
ham, in which case not to exceed
three marks would be used. Shears
with curved Ladies about eight inches
long, commonly called "roachiIls
shears are most generally used Tor

Fluid for Sheep.
Sheep are marked by using brand
ing fluid applied with u half-inch stiff
round-bristle brush. The marks should
be placed on the head, top of Shout

tory on hogs because 1t smears.

Hartly, the little Delaware town
just over the Maryland line from
Queen Anne's county, now has two
mysteries to solve and one appears to
be as battling as the other.
For months, Hartly's citizens have
been kept in constant state of anx-
ious dread over the weird operations
of an elusive firebug who applies his
torch to building after building and
defies detection. Every vigilant eff
fort of the citizens to trap this crimi-
nal has been in vain.
Now a young girl, Mary Analore,
has dropped from sight and the
townfolk are beginning to wonder if
her disappearance has any connection
with the activities of the mysterious
firebug.
Miss Analor, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs Joseph Analore, quietly vanished
from her country home near Hartley
about the middle of last April. At
that time, it was thought Mary had
gone riding with neighbors and, for
quite while, but little was thought
of her failure to return.
However, her parnts appealed to
Deputy Attorney General Earl j.
Wiley, at Dover, besseching his aid
in their anxiety to get some trace Of
their young daughter. It is now be-
lieved by her family that she was
spirited away and is being detained
AGAINST her will in Philadelphia.
/ From the time she disappeared un-
til now, the parents told Mr.. Wiley,
they have had no clue to the girls
whereabouts, despite the fact they
have made every effort they could to
locate her without revealing their
plight to the authorities.
Mr. Wiley promptly started a
move to locate Miss Analore and has
requested anyone who has any infor-
nation of the girls whereabouts to
communicate with him at Dover or
the grieving parents at Hartley.
