Sore Hands aaaast C Alfalfa. A corraspoBdent of the Kansas state board of agriculture says: After the alfalfa has been sown In the spring, it will be necessary to run a mowing-machine over the ground two or three times during the summer to keep down the weeds. The sickle bar should be set high, so as to In jure the small young plants as little as possible. I the vegetable debris is so abundant that it promises to smother the young alfalfa, it should be raked up and removed. In harvest ing mow dowa as much of the crop at once as can be handled In one day. Let it wilt In tie swaths and then rake it into windrows to core. If the weather is fine, it can be stacked from the windrow by using a sweep rake and stacker. If the weather is threat ening, bunch the windrows and cock the bunches to allow ito finish cur ing. It should be put into the stack with just as little handling as possible. To avoid molding, I have advised farmers to store alternate layers of dry straw and fresh alfalfa hay together in the barn or stack. The straw need not form more than about one-fourth of the total weight I think this meth od especially applicable to the first crop in localities where old straw stacks can be easily acquired. When possible, alfalfa should be stored under a roof, as It does not turn rain well. A cheap hay shed can be built by setting telegraph poles in the ground, braced by two-by-sixes, and putting a good shingle roof on the structure. The sides should be left open and the hay stacked under this shed in ricks. A stacker of some sort or other should be used, as it does not pay to hire men to handle the hay with a fork. They waste too much by snaking off the leaves, which are con siderably better to feed than wheat bran, pound for pound. Where a roof cannot be had, the hay should be stacked in high, narrow ricks and cov ered with long slough grass. Alfalfa should be cured and stacked, if possi ble, without being rained upon. No other crop is so easily injured oy rain. Alfalfa hay rained upon is worth about half what it would be were it unexposed. Harvesting alfalfa at the righ time and in the right manner very largely determines its feeding value. The ma jority of farmers wait too long before starting the mowing-machine. Alfalfa should be cut for hay when one-fourth to one-half of the blossoms have open ed. When let stand longer, many of the leaves fall off and are wasted. Mowing early stimulates the growth of the following crop. Allowing it to go to seed seemingly exhausts the plant for that season. Alfalfa fed green, either as a pasture or as a soiling crop, has few equals in its nutritive value. In localities where there is no difficulty in getting a stand, the cheapest way to feed it is prob ably to pasture it It should never be pastured until the plants are more than a year old. Owing to their liabil ity to hoven or bloat, it is always risky to pasture cattle or sheep upon alfalfa. I Before turning animals liable to bloat upon the alfalfa give them all they will eat of some other food. Death from bloat is often very sudden. of temperature is obtainable the air j nw ue appies saoaia not se per alttof to change constantly, as tha-re-salt will be to draw the aMtstare fross the- fruit and cause shriveling. For this reason the storage of apples la barrels induces better keeping, as the cool air around the fruit cannot change freely. Some follow the prac tice of burying the apples out of ; doors, and this practice Is a good one If the pit Is dry and Is placed below the frost line. The temperature of the ground .in winter is seldom likely to rise above 40 degrees at a depth im mediately below the frost line. This should be an ideal temperature. la fact it is altogether probable that storage cellars constructed for the keeping of fruit will be found easier to regulate than the best appointed house cellars. Tfca Qaay Flmral Arch Cast Side. The arch of white immortelles, wiu S keystone of red carnations, bearing the legend, "Verdict of the People," presented to Senator. Quay on the morning of his return to the senate after two years of enforced exile, cost S140 in good, hard money. It was bought and designed by employes in the various executive departments who maintain a voting residence in Pennsylvania and secured their posi tions through Mr. Quay's influence. These all contributed pro rata and bonght the largest and most expensive floral tribute ever appearing in the United States senate. Hrat tiliSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSBHPKslBia I BSSl aaWOsX: SSvfiSHBBSiaf SBsl mm Dcatrovlag- Clods. If you have a piece of hard land -to break, which is so baked as to come up in clods, we would suggest that you run over it with a disc or cutaway har row ahead of plows, and break with very small- scooters, says a southern farmer. Do not try to turn such land. If you still have clods do not wait' for them to harden, but run a heavy roller or drag over and follow with some pulverizing harrow the same day. An hour or so will do this for each 1 day's plowing. Thus you will pulver ize most of them quite easily. Run roller ahead of harrow so as to crush as many as possible, and fasten the others so that they cannot dodge the harrows. It will pay to take time, to do this, your crop can be cultivated so much cheaper afterwards; and the yield will be so much greater. Every time you go over with harrows and crushers you will increase the yield of the crop. We once selected one acre in a twenty acre field, average spot, and plowed and harrowed this acre four teen times right along before we quit We then planted and cultivated this acre just as we did the rest of the field, running the rows right along through it The yield was much more than double any other acre. This has con tinued to be true for five years, in all kinds of crops. All through the grow ing season this acre can be distin guished as far as you can see the field. All crops grow off quicker and yield heavier. "Culture is Manure" is true. But after all the old proverb "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" holds good here also. If the hard pan is broken up and the water permitted to go on down, so as not to saturate the soil and remain in it too long, the baking will be prevented. If the baking or running together Is prevented the clods will not form. This is as true of bottom land as of upland. Stop the soaking and you will prevent the clodding. One other point is worth considering here. Do not burn any vegetable matter in your farm. Plow it into the soil. This will enrich the soil and prevent the baking and clodding. Kvart's Oatdoae. Ex-Senator. Williams M. Evarts Is no longer the champion framer of long sentences. He frequently made a record of 500 words, but has been far outdone by Rastus S. Ransom, a New York lawyer, who in a will case a few days ago put a hypothetical ques tion 4,000 words in length. . Boiled down all this meant: "Assuming the testimony to be true, was she sane or insane when she made her will?" It took just thirty minutes to ask the question. He who seeks fellowship with the world is in no condition to trust God. General Yates has set the seal of his disapproval upon prize fighting, and has decreed that this pastime shall not be indulged in within the boundaries of the state of Illinois while he presides at the head of the executive department.

'The compilation of Kansas assess ors returns, showing the value, at home or on the farm, of animals slaughtered or sold for slaughter and the poultry and eggs marketed in the year ending March 1, just completed by Secretary P. D. Coburn, of the state board of agriculture, evidences that Kansas not only Is well forward hut continues to rapidly advance in the rank of meat-producing states. The value returned for animals slaughtered or sold for that purpose in the year named is $54,321,888, or 7 per cent greater than in 1899, and the largest value in the history of the state. In 1896 the value was 136,592,057. since when there has been a hand some increase each year, aggregating a total gain of $17,729,831, or 48.5 per cent. The value of poultry and eggs mar keted within the year was $5,060,332, a gain over 1899 of 19.3 per cent, and likewise the largest ralne ever report ed for the state. There has been an Increase annually In the value of poul try and eggs marketed since 1895, and the total gain made during the five years is 52.65 per cent, or $1,745,265, the largest increase being 1900. The combined values of animals slaughtered or sold for slaughter and of poultry and eggs sold in the year is $59,382,220, and for the five years (1896-1500) they aggregate $249,260,683. making an annual average of $49,852,-136.

"-" SIS Hortlcaltaral Obaaraatl It is a noticeable fact that the in fluence of horticultural conventions is on the increase. This is perhaps large ly due to the advance being made in horticultural education at our agricul tural colleges. The colleges are an nually turning out students and are also every year supplying more pro fessors as speakers at such meetings. In the last few years a distinct Im provement has been noticeable in the quality of the papers presented. This condition should be recognized by the great mass of farmers and the conven tions should be more freely attended. The improvement in traveling facili ties makes this possible. m For years there has been keen con troversy between the men that favored keeping pear orchards in sod and those that favored keeping them in a state of high cultivation. The on-Iookers have been of the opinion that it did not make much difference so far as the blight was concerned whether the orchards were in sod or not Now, however, the Maryland Agricultural College has come out with a circular stating that at that institution it is considered proved that pear orchards that have become affected with blight should be get Into sod as soon as pos sible; that wJgh cultivation and fer tilisation help the blight rather than stop it This of course Is not advised for orchards that are not affected by the pest We doubt, however, it the opinion of the Maryland college will settle matters In ths minds of many of ourt readers. aaa In keeping o? apples the temperature is of course of great Importance. The ideal degree Is said to be 35 above sera This Is, however, not possible to he obtained constantly except where the apples are placed in cold storage hatjaes where the tswaeratnre is reg ulated by appliance for that trarpeaa. In 'the cellar even where a low degree Desirable qualities are not the only ones that are perpetuated by Inheri tance. Undesirable qualities are also handed down from generation to gen eration to be an annoyance to the breeder. It is said that the variations are as apt to be toward deterioration as toward improvement. While in a state of nature the standard of the breed is kept up by a natural selec tion that we call the survival of the fittest. This not only keeps the good qualities in the foreground, but also establishes new ones that appear if they are of enough consequence to sur vive. When" the wild birds and wild animals are domesticated it is no longer a case of survival of the fit test, for the old laws are set aside by man. Thereafter the chief factor in improvement must be artificial selec tion. The birds are no longer able to exercise any volition in the matter. The need, therefore, of careful study on the part of the breeder is apparent The Ram. A sheep breeder that has had years of experience selecting and mating sheep says. One of the very worst mistakes one -can make in selecting the head of the flock, is to get one lacking vigor and constitution. If this is lacking nothing can make up for it, and it need not be lacking if the buyer Is at all acquaint ed with his business. Never mind his record, or who his grandfather was or wasn't, till you have seen the animal himself, and then don't let the record change your opinion of him. No mat ter how long a sheep's pedigree is, if bis neck and legs are long, too, you don't want him. A ram should have two good ends on him if possible, but the front end is by far the most im portant If there is lots of heart room, the front legs wide apart, the wider the better, and the neck short and strong, then the rest of the animal is pretty apt to be right, or at least not far out of the way. Frequently a fine ram will be so wide and full in the shoulders that he will appear narrow and peaked behind, where if his shoul ders were as sloping and thin as some sheep, bis hips would seem anything but deficient After the deep, wide chest and short, thick neck are secured see to it that the legs are short, stout and bony. Lots of bone, large, strong Joints, and a flat, rather than a round, pipe-stem leg, are tne things to insist upon. The. belly and back line should both be straight the back broad and the skin bright red, though dark and even lighter skinned rams are some times very vigorous. This is not the rule, however. We like a strong, thick, well covered ear, but good authorities are not unfriendly to a thin ear. A bold, proud carriage means much, and an active, quick-moving animal, mus cular and bony rather than fat and slow, is much to be preferred, and last but not least, the head of a flock o! mutton sheep should weigh something. In these days nothing can make up for an undersized body; 175 is light enough for any mutton ram to weigh in ordi nary flesh, and 200 to 275 is far better. With ordinary western treatment the lambs will not be too large then. Uas Nettle Blxoa Eays the Kenedy That Cared Her Would Be Cheap at This Price. Cincinnati, O., Feb. 11, 1901. (Spe cial.) Miss Netta Hixon Is Sergeant-at-Arms of Camp No. 1, Patriotic Order of America. Her home is at No. 171? Hughes street, this city. She is a very popular and influential lady. For three, years she has been ill. Now she is well. She says: "I cannot praise Oodd's Kidney Pills too highly for what they have done for me. I was troubled for three years with weakness, and often had dizzy spells, so that I dared not go out alone. My head would ache continually for four or five days at a time, until life became simply a burden. "All the medicine I took did me no good, until my physician advised me to try Dodd's Kidney Pills. I secured a box, and soon found that my head ache was leaving me. I felt encourag ed and kept on taking them and get ting stronger. The pains gradually diminished, until I had used four boxes, and all trace of pain had gone. I am today a strong and well woman, thanks to Dodd's Kidney Pills. If the price was one dollar per pill, Instead of 50c a box, they would be cheap, compared with other so-called medi cines placed before a suffering public." This is but a sample of the letters re ceived every day by the hundred. They all tell the same story of sickness and soreness, changed into health and vigor by the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills.

OST people think that catarrh is a disease confined to the head and nose. Nothing is farther from the truth. It may be that the nose and ' for tlle better iiiruai is in onenpsr Hnerien nv ra- tarrh. but if this is so it is so only because these parts are more exposed to the vicissitudes of the climate than the other parts of the body. Every organ, every duct, every cavity of the human body is liable to catarrh. A multitude of ailments depend ou ca tarrh. This is true winter and sum mer. Catarrh causes many cases of chronic disease, where the victim has not the slightest suspicion that catarrh has anything to do with it. The following letter which gives the experience of Mr. A. C. Lockhart is a case in point: Mr. A. C. Lockhart, West Henrietta. N. Y..

I did so and got temporary relief. I went back to work again, but was Ohio. taken with very my stomach. "I seldom had a passage of the bow els naturally. I consulted another physician with no better results. The disease kept growing on me. until T had exhausted the ability of sixteen of Rochester's best physicians. The last physician advised me to give up my, work and go south, after he had treat- ed me for one year. "I was given a thorough examination with the X-ray. They could not even determine what my trouble was. Some of your testimonials in the Rochester papers seemed to me worthy of con sideration, and I made up my mind to try a bottle of Peruna. Before the bottle was half gone I noticed a chango 1 am now on tho fifth bottle, and have not an ache or pain anywnere. M3- bowels move regularly, every day. and I have taken on eight een pounds of Hesh. I have recom mended Peruna to a great many and they recommend it very highly. I have told several people that if they ' would take a bottle of Peruna. and could then candidly say that it had not benefited them, i would pay for the medicine." A. C. Lockhart. Mr. W. P.

That horses remember their racing days is evidenced by the perfomaBce of Rachel a, 2:28. by Allie West, at the Meadowlands farm one day last fall. After she had weaned her irst colt by Wood Boy, it was decided to turn her out in the infield of the farm track. It was expected that the old mare would cross the track to the tract of clover in the Infield, but instead she went to the stand, took the outside of the track and jogged around it three times, and then, turning above the wire, took the pole and west around. She kept going until stopped by the men. The next day when tuned" out she went through the same perform ance, and she made it necessary for the farm to find a new paddock for her. Rachel B. is 24 years ojd, aad has sot been raced ia seventeen years. Bowel Troubles: Caused by over-work! Over-eating! Over-drinking!
