Without sew erage your city will soon' become too filthy to live in. If you put in your own sewerage and water system you will be deeper m debt in proportion to your wealth than if you join with St Helen. Con sider the matter carefully be tween now and next Monday and do not make a mistake that will " take at least a year to correct. ALFALFA IN KANSAS. Why Is alfalfa? And what is It Perhaps the reader Is imbued with the idea that a certain Populist Senator from Kansas raised the Brat crop of alfalfa to cover a receding chin. To correct this erroneous impression, and for other reasons, the Kansas Agri cultural Department furnishes a pedi gree for alfalfa that harks back to the rerr gates "of Eden. The Persians found it to be a valu able plant, and when Xenes Invaded Greece he carried a few bales of al falfa along. Words were becoming more plentiful by this time, and the Greeks named it meJike. Next the Romans obtained a supply from the Greeks and re-christened It herba med ico. During the Middle Ages, owing, perhaps, to a change of textbooks In the rural districts, the name was chansed to lucerne, after a river of North Italy. To the Arabs, however, it became known as al-facfacah, which really meant "the best kiud of fodder." As it became introduced into Spain, France and Northern Europe, follow ing the Invasion of the Moors, the Arabian name was implanted, and finally shortened to the Spanish alfalfa for the convenience of future Kan- s-iiis, to whom it came by way of the . Levant. In 1S91, according to the reort of Secretary F. V. Coburu, of the Kansas Agricultural Department, there were but Zi.ZHi acres of alfalfa grown in the state; in 1909 the area had in creased to 992.6G3 acres, Jewell County alone showing a total of 61,602 acres in alfalfa, or nearly double the entire acreape of the state in 1&91, when the first statistics were obtained. Only two crops grown in the state, wheat and corn, exceed alfalfa in value. There's nothing small or stingy shout alfalfa. Perhaps that In why it hunted up Kansas. It doesn't exact the pound of flesh from the farmer's. land just because it brings him libera! returns. A similarity may be noticed between the methods of alfalfa and of Mr. Muldoon. who couducta the revital izing farm for broken-down businesf men in the East. Worn-out land and "v.oru-out business men are given a rest-curs consisting of heavier work than they have ever done before, and are at the Fame time benefited and J made new. Undeveloped energy and activity are brought out in either case. Where alfalfa Is sown the roots pen - etrate Hie soil to a depth of eight to twenty feet, drawing moisture from soneath the subsoil and supplying ni trogen to the earth In return. Mineral plant food is attracted to the upper soil, where it is available for the surface-feeding crops. Wheat, cortt or oats, planted on alfalfa-sod ground, will produce one third to one-half larger yields than that planted on udjoinlng land where grain crops have preceded. No won der ali'alfa Is already called the most valuable Western crop. Several mill ion bushels of grain raised annually la the stale may well be credited to the alfalfa fertilizer account in the Kansas ledger. Alfalfa is developing more pay dirt la Kansas than will ever be found in Alaska, and it doesn't run iu streaks; it is perfectly ueces Bible, Hut activity below the surface does not interfere In the least with the growth of the alfalfa plant above the ground. In lute May or early June, when It has attained a height of ten to eighteen Inches, and purple blossoms begin to appear, alfalfa is ready for tin; first cutting. New shoots imme diately appear, (i ud every three or four weeks', according to the season and the JuUfineiU of the grower, (re8ji cut tings ar made, Arbor Day come on the 8th of A p 11.
