A correspondent asks directions for growing alfalfa on soil very poor in lime, in the east central section of Alabama, in the Piedmont region. Expense is not to deter him. In showing some farmers over the Alabama Station farm recently I had occasion to point out alfalfa plots that showed clearly that any one of the several forms of lime is the most important fertilzer treatment in the Piedmont section. One of tjhe farm ers. living near Opellka. Alabama, told me that he had already gone tO an expense of about $?0 per acre, and that his alfalfa still looked like a failure. ^ I recommended the folowing course with reference to alfalfa on the red or grayish red soil of the .Piedmont region,?with the distinct under standing that I do not believe alfalfa will, on an average, on such soils, pay as well for the extra expense as would a double crop system of pro ducing hay by putting a mixture of oats and vetch in May. and mowing cow peas or soy beans on the same land in September. ? > (1.) Prepare the land for alfalfa in early September very thoroughly as for a fall turnip patch. (2.) Keep the land free of weeds by frequent disking until the time when rains permit the sowing of 24 pounds of alfalfa seed per acre broadcast. Jate in September or early in October. (3) Inoculate both the seed and the land at the hour of sowing by using not less than 500 pounds per acre of soil from a field where alfalfa or bur clover has grown successfully and produced an abundance of tubercles; if any artificial inoculating material, that is "alfalfa pure culture", is used lor Inoculation, let this be additional to the use of inoculating soil. (4) Before, sowing alfalfa seed, Spread broadcast or plow with a grain drill and thoroughly disk into the soil two or three tons of ground limestone per acre, or about one ton Of stoked lime. (5) Cover the entire surface with It rather heavy application of well rotted stable manure at any conven ient time, either immediate after sowing, or after the plants are sev eral inches high. Ground limestone, which you pror pose to have ground only to the fine ness or grits, and containing only 20 per cent lime dust, will, I think, be unsatisfactory, or at least will require that you more than treble the amount that wtuld be necessary if rather finely ground limestone were used. Extreme fineness is not necessary where ground lin^eetone is used rath er liberally, but results will be better I think as limestone approaches the fineness of coarsely ground corn meal or ground coffee.?J.

We' ar? also aaked: "Is it right to adrer tiae pure-bred cattle for aale when they are not entitled to registra tion?" The term "pure-bred" is so simple that no explanation can make lt ffiZre so. it simply means that the animal is of pure blood of the breed. The evidence of pare blood Is a certificate or* registration in the Bard Book nt the breed. Strictly speaking, an aoi m&l may be of pure breeding and not registered, or entitled to registra tion. An animal is not generally en titled to registration unless its sire and dam are both registered. If the sire and dam are entitled to registra tion. but are not registered, the indi vidual offspring in question is not en titled to registration, but it is. of course, pure-bred and can be regis tered when the sire and dam are reg istered. It is. of course, possible to have a pure-bred animal, the regis tering of whose ancestors has been so long neglected that it is no longer possible to prove the facts regarding their breeding and register them; but if this be true, then it is generally impossible to prove that the individ ual animal in question is "pure-bred'V and it must and should pass as a grade, in such a case. It is therefore, apparent that while an animal might be "pure-bred" and neither be registered nor entitled to registration, the proof of puVe breed ing is apt to be deficient or defective and we would not accept as pure-bred nor pay any more for such an animal not eligible to registration than we would for a grade of the same indi vidual quality. Moreover, a vast ma jority of those animals said to be pure-bred, but not entitled to regis tration. are not - "pure-bred**. For the above reasons we think it doubtful if any one has a moral right to advertise cattle as pure-bred which are not registered or entitled to registration. Technically he may be correct in dofng so. but the adver tising will be misleading to most peo ple.?The Progressive Farmer. KtnrUklr Care of Croup.

It Is Interesting to the newspaper man. as he read* his exchanges, to see how sharp the competition la for new manufacturing Industries. Cities from tar and near tumble oyer each other with special Inducements, the moment they hear that any concern contemplates a move. Our town should be active In this game, difficult aa It la. Meanwhile the fact la worth attention, that many a town while campaigning earnestly for distant concerns, la neglecting chan ces that originate at homer There are young men In this ploc as there are everywhere, who would be perfectly competent to manage a business proposition, If they had cap ital. They would like to start a new industry here. Meanwhile money is being sent away, because our people dont know of hopeful chances tp In vest at home. " The concern fr?m a distance that may ')c attracted by special induce ments, may or may not stay when the Inducements expire. The concern backed by hp^ne enterprise and capi tal is rooted in home solL \ To many people, the'distant Invest ment looks more attractive. But it might not seem so, if examined on the spot. Money invested at home is under close inspection, which should prevent losses. Wherefore, when our young men want a little capital to start a new enterprise, their claims should have the most careful con sideration. * ' ? , _ Sotlee to the Public. , The co-partnership heretofore doing business as J.
