GROWING ALFALFA.
Finest Kind of Hay For

Clover A Great Substitute for
Bran. Offal and Other mil Feeds
Can be Successfully Orown on Most
Lands in the South One Acre Well
Set in Alfalfa Worth One Hundred
Dollars Summary of Interesting
Test in Feeding Alfalfa to Cows.
V. Koiner. Commissioner of Agriculture
Virginia, in 1'rogrensive Farmer.
Alfalfa will grow in favorable soil
anywhere from eea level to 7,000 feet
elevation. Good drainage is neces
sary, as the plants are quickly killed
by excess of standing water in the
soil or on the surface. Water must
never be allowed to stand on a field
of alfalfa more than forty-eight
hours at a time, for if the ground be-
comes saturated ana is anowea to
remain so for any considerable length
of time the plants may be drowned
out. Neither will alfalfa succeed if
rock or other impervious subsoil Hps
too near the surface. Although it
requires a good drainage, it also re
quires a fairly constant water supply
and is likely to suffer from drought
on deep sandy soil. Alfalfa hay that
has been properly cured is eaten by
all kinds of farm animals, and has a
higher feeding value than red clover.
It is one of the best soiling crops,
and may be fed in this way to better
advantage than if the stock are pas
tured on the field.
PREPARATION OP THE SOIL.
The ground selected should be as
free as possible from weeds as tnese
are the great enemy oi young anaua,
v..tlAr.inllir tvltan 1 1 UOU( 1 A SOWM III I
tL Bnr!,Trr U i Rsmitifl1 that the
seed bed should be put in the best
possible condition by deep plowing
and thorough harrowing, disking or
rollimr. according to circumstances.
It is best to prepare the soil long
enough before sowing to allow it to
settle. If the ground is not thor
oughly moist it is best to wait until
a rain puts the soil in the proper
condition. After this stir the soil
with a harrow as soon as it can be
easily worked and then sow the seed.
SOWIXO TnE SEED.
Itmavbe sown in fall or spring,
although in the South, fall sowing is
more likely to be succesful. Alfalfa
niav be sown broadcast or drilled. If
sown broadcast, twenty pounds to
the acre should be used. If drilled,
fifteen pounds will be sufficient. The
seed may be sown alone or with a
light seeding of grain. If sown with
the grain, the latter should be cut
early for hay. The seed should be
covered ngntiy uy narrowing ui tun
ing. For the Southern States it may
be best if the land is weedy, to free
the soil from weeds by cultivation
during the summer and sow the seed
early in the fall.
TREATMENT FIRST SEASON.
If weeds are troublesome, the field
should be mown with sufficient fre
quency to keep them from smother
ing the alfalfa. If a good stand is
obtained and the field is not weedy,
one or more cuttings of hay may be
obtained the first season. The field
should not be pastured during the
first .year.
Although it is necessary to go to
some expense in order to put the soil
in the proper condition for alfalfa,
yet the meadow is so valuable when
established id should yield profit
able results for so many years that
extra time and expense are ampiy
repaid. But if the conditions men
tioned cannot be had, it is betterthat
the attempt to establish an alfalfa
meadow should not be made; for un
favorable conditions, such as poorly
drained soil, insufficient moisture at
time of sowing, weeds, prolonged
overflow or excessive water in the
soil may result in entire failure and
ponseouent loss of time and money
and, moreover, discourage theexper
imenter and retard the development
of alfalfa growing.

2. A ton of alfalfa or 'pea hay
can be produced at a cost of 3 to 5
per ton, whereas wheat bran costs
to $ 25. As a yield of from three
to five tons of alfalfa cau be obtain
ed from 1 acre of land,it is easy to see
what great advantage the utilization
of such roughness in the place of
wheat bran, gives the dairyman.
3. In substituting alfalfa hay for
wheat bran it will best in practice to
allow one and one-half toeach pound
of wheat bran, and if the alfalfa is
fed in a finely chopped condition the
results will prove more satisfactory.
4. When alfalfa was fed under the
most favorale conditions, a gallon of
milk was obtained for 5.2 cents, and
a pound of butter 10.4 cents. When
pea hay was fed the lowest cost of a
gallon of milk was 5.2 cents and a
pound of butter was 9.4 cents. In
localities where pea hay grows well it
can be utilized to replace wheat bran
and in sections where alfalfa can be
grown it can be substituted for pea
hay with satisfaction.
5. These results, covering two

furnish Droof that certain forms of
rouerhness in digestible protein can
be substituted with satisfaction for

"Mere smartness or brightness or

"The fact that a crooked man is

"I don I care how good a man is

Moore Cash, Less Credit Farming.
New Bern Journal
The farmers of the South are in bet
ter position today, than they ever
have been, to begin farming upon a
system of more cash and less credit,
for with the returns from cotton and
other crops, except portions of the
truck crop, the Southern farmer has
money which can be easily employed
in placing himself in the way of farm
ing upon a cash basis, and using his
credit, not to do business upon ex
cept when necessity compels.
Hie farmerwnonas tuecasnsijuuiu
buy his fertilizers upon the basis of
this pnsh. that is. if he can pay cash
for one ton or two tons, buy that
amount of fertilizer, and either farm
upon that basis, or else make what
other fertilizers he may need. This
will give him the full interest in his
crops, and make what he raises his
own, instead of having bought his
fertilizers upon credit, and so mort-o-a-ed
his croDS in advance, and when
these are gathered be unable to say
when or how they are to be disposed
of until the fertilizer account is paid.
How can the farmer who farms on
credit, getting his fertilizers and sup
plies on a mortgage which covers his
labor and what he raises, going to
be able to say that he will hold his
cotton for 11 'cents? He is going to
sell onlv what is left after making
good his obligations, and in most
cases this means very little.
The country store merchant can
have something to do in this, more
cash and less credit farming, for the
desire to sell merchandise, rather to
do business, causes too many coun
try merchants to force farmers to
take goods on credit, when such
forcing credit means that the account
may never be paid, lhe country
merchant would not only best serve
his patron, but also himself, by try
ing to get those farmers who trade
with him to do so upon a cash basis.
The farmer who thus farms, upon
the cash systems of doing what he
for :3 vr0ns to succeed best,
for hi9 cre(jit is going to be good,
and he cau buy at less cost, than
upon the credit system, which gives
that additional prom, io m urup

Woman.
An exchange pays
the
following
tribute to woman:
Who does not love the name? Who
is so close to any being as his moth
er? For whom would he die so soon,
whose love is like her's? What cares
she for his disgrace or even his sin?
Her love is ever the same! She will
joy in his prosperity and weep forhis
sin and shame but never, never for
sake him. She will watch over his
bed of sickness and impoverish her
self to raise him to health. Nor is
she the only being whose love is thus
deep and constant. She who has
once plighted her faith and given her
love to man will never withdraw it;
in disgrace, in poverty, in prison,
even she is still the same. She will
love him in his degradation, and the
deeper he sinks she will bind him the
closer to her heart. Will man do so?
Will he love till death.through reverse
and misery? Not he; let but the re
port of shame spot the fair charater
of the woman he has loved, and his
mockery of faith is broken he loves
no longer.
Alas! what tales might woman tell,
of broken vows and severed hearts,
of withered hopes and bruised affec
tions, if she held but the pen. I thank
! God, woman has a power of her own
to which, some day or other, every
man must bow; he may revile, he'
may, like a coward, attack her fair
fame; but sooner or later, he must
bow at the footstool of her beauty
and confess to the loveliness which
he has assailed and the heart which
lie has insulted. It is well for the
world that woman has a'power aris
ing from her beauty and virtue which
binds in a chain of invisible power
the strong to the weak. That love,
that tremendous power, still exists,
and is as strong and as reckless as
, . . -. 11 f At.-
ever, and it would De wen ior me re-
vilere of woman to remember that a
day must come when they will bow
in shame before the unsullied altar of
love ud beauty, whose flames they
have tried to extinguish forever.

Teach Intensive Farming.
Maxwell's Talesman.
The greatest good that can be done
to the American farmer today is to
teach him to make the largest possi
ble profit from the smallest tract of
land from which a family can be sup
ported in comfort. A great influence
operating today against keeping the
boys in the country is that the boy
does not have monev enough to buv
a farm. It is unfortunately true that
there is trend in the direction of the
absorbing of farms into still larger
farms, with a consequent diminution
of population, as in Iowa and other
farming: sections. The reined v for
this is to demonstrate that if the
value is in the boy rather than in the
farm, and the boy is taught that by
intensive, diversified, scientific farm
ing a good living with a surplus pro
fit that will provide amply for old
age, may be made from a compara
tively small tract of hand say ten
acres with ample cultivation, irri
gation and fertilization or even with
out irrigation, because a hoe and a
cultivator in the hands of a scien
tific farmer may bring as good and
better results in providing moisture
for growing plants than a ditch and
unlimited water in the hands of a
lazy farmer.

So great has been the devleopment
of this branch of its work that it pub
lishes a daily bulletin of industrial

touch with every new industrial, rail

the South and Southwest.
Comparatively few i?ople realize
what the higher prices which the
farmers of the South have received
during the last few years for cotton
have meant to this section. During
the last six years in which cotton
has commanded a good price, al
though less than the average of the
preceding 50 years, the aggregate
value of the cotton crops has been
about $3,000,000,000, against $1,-
800,000,000 for the six low-priced
years which ended with 1899, show

Industrial Development.
The New and rlagnlflcent Editorial
and Business Offices of the Manu

Such a Conspicuous Part In the Ma
terial Upbuilding of the South, Now
Everywhere Recognized as the Com
ing Center of Agricultural, Indus
trial, Railroad and Financial Activity
New York Tribune of October 21.
The new and maguificent editorial
and business office of the Manufac
turer Record, covering the entire
second floorof the Merchants' Nation
al Bank Building, which were thrown
open to the public today, attracted
general attention jand admiration.
These offices, comprising 15 rooms,
averacrincr nearly 400 square feet
each, are divided by heavy plate-
crlass Dartitions and doors, giving
for so large a space a uuique and
striking appearauce. A double wains
coting about four feet high is so ar
ranged that both the sashes can be
dropped into it and the entire space
thrown into one great room. The
frontage is 120 feet on Water street,
ruuning the full length of the square,
with South street (Baltimore's "Wall
Street") at one end, and Commerce
street at the other. The splendid
granite fire-proof building has only
two stories, the lower floor being oc
cupied by the Merchants' Bank, the
largest national bank of the eity, and
the the second floor by the Manufac
turers' Record.
The opening of these offices, which
in appointment and furnishing are
Erobably the finest editorial and
usiness offices of any paper in Amer
ica, emphasizes the marvelous indus
trial development of the South, of
which, for nearly 25 years, the Man
ufacturers' Record has been the
world-wide recognized exponent. In
1882. when the Manufacturers' Re
cord was established by Richard H
Edmonds, its editor and manager
for the express purpose of advocating
the material upbuilding oitne south,
that section had scarcely begun to
show anv eurns of awakening from
the overwhelming destruction of the
war. Lanrelv stimulated by the uu
ceasing and inspiring work of the
Manufacturers' Record in trying to
ouicken the people of the South into
greater effort for the advancement of
their own section, and at the same
time to attract the business world's
attention to the unequaled combi
nation of advantages of that section
for the investment of capital and the
development of manufactures, the
South is now everywhere recognized
as the coming center of industrial,
railroad and financial activity
When the Manufacturers' Record
was started the South was produc
ing about 400,000 tons of pig-iron a
year; it is now producing about 3,
500,000 tons, or nearly as much as
the entire output of the United States
in 1880. Its bituminous coal out
put, which was then about 6,000,000
or 7,000,000 tons, is now 70,000,000
tons, or 30,000,000 tons more than
the bituminous coal output of the
entire country in 1880. At that time
the South had about G0.000 cotton
spindles, representing an investment
of $21,000,000; it now has 0,000,
000 spindles with over f 200,000,000
in cotton manufacturing. The capi
then invested in manufacturing was
1257,000,000, and the value of man
ufactured products $457,000,000;
now the South has invested in man
ufacturing largely over $1,250,000,-

products is over $1,GOO,000,000. !

to f l,70O,000,UOU. I
These are but a few indications of j
what has been accomplished in South
ern development. They do not, how
ever, begin to tell the full story. All
that has been done is simply a begin
ning. During this period of marvel
ous industrial and agricultural pro-,
gress the total population of the'
South has increased about 00 perl
cent ., but the total value of Southern '
products, agricultural and manufac- j
lureu, nas ireuieu, uuviug uuiauwii
from $1,100,000,000 to over $.3,500-;
000.000. Yet all that has been ac-,
I complished is simply to clear the way i
menting on this situation, the Mnvu-
facturers' Recordtto which we are in-
debted for these figures (for the Man-
ufacturers' Record, by the way, has
for the last 20 years kept up what in
effect w a census bureau or thenouth-
ern industries), makes the statement
that within the next iu years me
materiul advance of the boutli in;
wealth and industry will far exceed
all that has been accomplished in the
last 25 years.
Not only has the Manufacturers'
Record nib. unceasing and tireie
energy been pressing upon the world's :
attention the resources or trie eourn,
but it has labored in every line of
thought to rrive life to its motto i
"The development of tbe South
means the enrichment of the nation."
It has recognized that the develop
ment of the South not only means
the enrichment of the nation mate
rially, but that it means a broader
national spirit and acloser acquaint
anceship of the people of all sections.
In this way it has become a medium
of communication among all, until
it is almost as widely read by the
great banking interests and manu-
facturers of tbe Jortu and West as
in the South itself. Publishing with
minute detail a list of every indus
trial, railroad and financial enter
prise established in the South, it has
become an invaluable aid to manu
facturers, contractors, engineers and
others who want to keep advised as
to new enterprises of all kind to be
