HAVH WE IIEKN BI NCOEO AGAIN Tbe recent decision in the case cl the National Life Insurance Co., vs Loup City township, is calculated to arouse suspicion in the minds of the average taxpayer as to whither there ever was anv merit in our case or whither it was a petite presentment of distorted facts for tlia collection of a fee. Very suddenly after the sale of the bonds in guest, it was announced tlial the B. iV M. railroad company had concluded to take ad vantage of a real or imaginary technicality that existed to defeat the collection of the taxes with which to pay those coupons, or at least the part which was assessed against said company, and by the V representations of Mr. Kelby, a re cognized B. & M. attorney, a d our local attorney Mr. II. M. Mathew, the township board called a meeting of tbe citizens, at. which time the ease as laid down by the aforsaid attorneys, was order- d to be defend- j cd ami the said attorneys were em ployed ut :i stipulated price of J?i.r»0 for each term of court in which they were engaged on the case. At the second presentation of tea case in court the township was defeated and the coupons sued upon went tnjmlg ment. Now hi: are informed by ttie local attorney that the township still has a good defense us the coun ty should have been sued instead of tbs township, as the county officers were the parties who issued the bonds consequently must be tke parties sued. The question arises, what benefit it would bo to us to go into court. If we did get a decision to the etiect that the county aud not ihe township were the proper parties to have been sued, and after we have paid our money to establish the fact, the county is sued and judgment rendered against it, which is bound to be the case, then the supervisors very praperly*levy a tax against the township to pay the bill. We have ^ paid our m*t>ey to establish a tech nical point of law, the attorneys are very glad to have a decision on that particular point and we, poor fools, have footed the bill. The debt is as honest oue, it we have teceived very little benefit from it, and Sherman county should not pav it, and from our point of view we don’t think that any more attorneys ribs should be fattened to find out that we have got to pay it, for that is a forgone conclusion. If our deductions are eroneous our columns are open for correction and at th* disposal ol those who are better informed. Some of the leaders of the Fttsion ist wing of the populist party declare that if harmony cannot be had be tween the populist and democratic party, that Bryan will be forced to gel up, ard support a new reform movement. This little speech is only calculated to pave the way in getting up a new issue to enable Bryan to get upon the stump again and talk to the multitudes whi.e his hired man takes in the gate receipts. Another new issue will make Bryan a millionaire. It has been iatelv proven that Tubal Cain was not the lirsl black smith. The University of Pennsjl vania have found, in their research es near Nmev&h, a full fledged smithy which they claim existed 4,750 years before old Tubal ham mered iron. They also found many day tablets with inscriptions there on which showed that the smithy s name was llamjau._ The pop leaders are rapidly be coming plutocrats. Bryan has at last become one of the wealthiest men in Nebraska. Pettigrew of South Dakota has recently raked in $-25,090 on land deals and several times that amount in deals in \\ all streetduring the recent railway storks l> >om. To woe lute of Minnesota, has gone to New York to join a Texas oil octopus and will no doubt soon be wealthy. They kick on wealth of } other people, but are very glad to p le it up themselves, such is life ..ml politics.—Sterling Sun. \V 11K N TO i TIT AITAl.f A Tile following bulletin, issued re cently from the experiment station j of the Kansas Farm 1'epartraent, at Manhattan, will prove of interest to all growers of alfalfa in this part of the state. It reads as follows: Alfalfa stisuld lie cut when not more than one-tenth of tlie plants have come in bloom. Cut at this early stage, the yield of hay for the season will be much greater than if t-hft alfalfa is cut near maturity, and every pound «f hay secured will be worth more for fead. At the Kansas Experiment Station a strip through a Held <d‘ alfalfa was cut wbsu one tenth wa* in bloom, another strip was cut after full bloom had pas sed. The strip cut early was nearly ready to cut the second time when that cut after full bloom was being harvested the iir«L time. The strip cut eatly grew vigorously through the season and made three ciilt'Bgs and a good aftermath. The strip cut after full bloom gave a low yield the lirst cutting and did not grow sutlicientlv to yield a good sec ond cutting. Early cuttings seem to invigorate the plant. The late cutting of the first crop set ms to injure the plant more than at any other time, usd we have found it profitable to cut alfalfa the first time as soon us one-tenth was iu bloom, et. n though the weather was bad and we knew itie crop would spoil in curing. The increased yield from succeeding autfings over that cut late much more than makes up for tho loss of the first crop. Successful clover growers, the first time they try alfalfa, often ruin the stand, so tkut it lias 'O be plowed up, by waitiug to cut until it reach's the stage at which clover is usually cut. The great value of alfalfa is tin large amount of protein it contains, that material in fe.yi that is absolute ly necessary for the formation of blood, lean meat and milk. The higher the protein in alfalfa, the more valuable the crop. The Chemi cal Department of this Station found the effect of cutting alfalfa at differ eut stages, as follows: Protein One tenth in bloom ; - 5 i>er ceni One half in bloom . It.I “ In full bloom.. . Ill" The Colorado Ksperimci.' State n found the effect of cutting alfalfa as follows: Protein Coming in bloom is.5 per cent Half in bloom .14.6 • In full bloom_ . . . 12.9 “ The Utah Experiment Station for live years cut alfalfa at different stages of maturity and fed Hie crop in producing beef. The average pro duction per year per acre was as follows: Hay Heef tons pounds 111 Mrst bloom. 5.35 706 In full bloom.. 4.80 502 Half blooms fallen. 4.55 190 | These experiments made in three status-Kansas, Colorado and Utah - prove that alfalfa cut in the fir*t bloom will give the greatest yield and feeding value. The leaves of alfalfa costaios more than three times as much protein as the steins, a ton of alfalfa leaves containing as much protein as 2800 pounds of br. u, Even care should be taken in fin ing alfaifa to save the hay. — Daw sor.
