Republicans See
Success Ahead if
Work in Unison
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, March 20.-(Speclal.)-P.e-
publlcans who came in today to attend
the' legtslatlvo banquet this cvcn'ns
brought good reports from various sec
tions of the country regarding tho git
together feeling In their community
among republicans.
Said a republican whp was a member
of the session of 1M9: "Wo feel down
our way that with a good ticket we will
be back In the harness again next ye.v
Of course, there are a few radicals on
both sides who do not seem to want to
forget the differences of 1912. but among
therank and file of tho party there Is a
feeling that the rast should bo burJo-l
and everybody pull together for success
this fall."
A republican member of tho legislature
of 1911 from a county In tho central part
of tho state said things looked good In
his locality. "The third party fellows
are not cutting much Ico In my county.
said he. "and while they may put a
ticket in tho field In the county, they
will not poll any very considerable por
tion of the vote. It will be practically
easy for us to run up a good majority
for the republican ticket In our co'inty
If wo got a good man to lead tho state
ticket."
"Up In my county," said another well
known republican member of tho 1911 ses
sion, "the democrats are split all to
pieces. Congressman Stephens' attitude
on the postofflcn appointments has had
tho effect of creating such a feeling
against him over the district thatehould
ho get tho nomination, any republican
who Is clean and progressive will have
an easy time beating htm In the election.
"We havo a few third party fellows, but
very few. Sontlmtnt among all repub
licans Is strong for forgetting tho differ
ences of the past and getting togcthor
to fight for what to me looks llko sure
victory with a good, strong stato ticket
in the field."
In fact, the above sentiment seems to
extend to all parts ot the state, It tho
Ideas of thoso who have como to Lincoln
to attend tho legislative banquet Is to bo

ALFALFA SEED IS CHEAP,
FARMERS ARE USING IT
(Krom a Staff" Corres.)
LINCOLN, Neb., March 20 (Ppeclal.)
Reports received by the state board of
agrlculturo indicate that the farmers are
preparing for extensive alfalfa planting
this year. There are two reasons for
this activity. The crop yielded well un
der drouth conditions. Alfalfa, seed Is
cheap and of excellent qualify.
The Franklin News Bays: "J. W. Rob
inson Intends to plant fifty acres of al
falfa on his bottom farm this spring.
Several other farmers of this locality
will put In a big acreage. Alfalfa seed
Is the cheapest it has been in years and
if the weather Is right this spring there
will be hundreds of acres planted In this
county. There is nothing that will pay
a higher return on the Investment than
alfalfa."
Concerning the sowing of alfalfa, In
formation on file In the offlco of the
State Board of Agriculture shows that
the state may be roughly divided Into
two districts. If a line be drawn through
Seward to a point about six miles west
of Crete and extended until It touches
the stato line, both north and south, the
state would be divided Into two sections
us far as alfalfa seeding is concerned.
East ot this line Is the first dUtrlct
where the weed growths aro tho princi
pal factors In securing a good stand of
alfalfa. Here It Is better to delay the
sowing of alfalfa until the season of
rank wted growth Is over. From the
first to the tenth of ugust Is the most
favorable time.
In tho sandhill region and the elevated
plateau country of tho second region the
chief obstacles to getting a good stand
of alfalfa aro the high winds and the
burning suns of the lato summer. Winds,
dust and blowing sand Injure the plant.
The whipping of tho young alfalfa plant
back and forth fn the wind ,1s almost fatal
to It. To avcld theso difficulties It If
best to delay sowing until tho season of
high winds Is past. In thlB region the
time selected for sowing Is usually fr-;m
Juno 1 to 10. Until this time the ground
should be kept In good cultivation to pre
vent the loss of moisture and the growth
of weeds. By sowing at this time tlii
plants get the benefit of the summer
rains.

Sir Gilbert Parker's
Great New Novel
"You Never Know Your Luck"
Published Complete
in the April Munsey
WHEN this novel gods into book forrn after it has appeared in
The Munsey, it will cost you $1.50; in Munsey 's Magazine it
will cost you 15 cents, and in The Munsey you get it first.
Sir Gilbert Parker is unquestionably one of the first novelists of the
day, and one of the most popular. His books, at $1.50 a copy, sell
up into tjie hundreds of thousands some of them as much as
400,000. With so tremendous a sale at $1.50, what ought the sale to
be at only 15 cents ? Four million copies, I should say, but as the
edition of Munsey's Magazine for April is limited to 500,000
copies, there will be, on this theory, 3,500,000 disappointed persons.
If, therefore, you want to make sure of this new
Parker novel at a cost of IS cents, you would do
well to get busy with your newsdealer before
his supply of the April Munsey is exhausted.
MUNSEY
SIR GILBERT PARKER
Author of "The Right of Vy." "The Money Muter,"
"Seats of the Mighty," "The Judgment House."
with a full book-length novel published complete each issue, has hit
a new high place in magazine making. I have been studying for a
dozen or fifteen years to hnd a way to give the public brand-new,
high-grade books at a price not to exceed 25 cents a copy. I have just now solved the problem through
publishing them in my magazine not serial publication, but as complete as if-actualjy in book form.
And in The Munsey they are printed on fine book paper, from large, clear type, and are profusely illustrated.
The Munsey is jam full of good stuff. Its complete novel covers only one side of it. The other side is
rich in illustrations, worth-while articles, short fiction and other material a magazine practically double
the size of the average magazine.
On all news-stands, 15 cents a copy; $1,50 a year.
