ALFALFA HOI'S THE SOIL.
Long Roots Curry Humus Deep Down
and Enrich the Land.
"At the Kansas station alfalfa roots
have been traced to a depth of over
nine feet, while at the Colorado ex
periment station Dr. W. P. Headden
has washed out the roots of an old
alfalfa plant to the depth of nearly
12 feet, says an alfalfa leaflet. Va
rious reports have been made, with
out good authority, of finding alfal
fa roots at even greater depths. It is
without doubt one of " the deepest
rooting plants grown on the farm.
"Alfalfa will do more for western
agriculture In the next 50 years than
all the other 'crops which farmers
may be able to grow In this region.
The soil of western Kansas and of
much of the western plains is usually
rich in the mineral elements of plant i
food, but, as stated before, it is often )
lacking In humus, which becomes es
peclally noticeable If the land has
been farmed continuously to wheat
for a few years.
By growing alfalfa It Is possible to
Increase the supply of humus In the
soil, and the roots of the plants pene
trating deep into the subsoil disin
tegrate and deepen the soil, and al
together greatly improve its texture
giving it greater capacity to absorb
and hold water. The beneficial ef
fect on the soil of growing alfalfa Is
only Incidental to the rapid Introduc
tion of the crop throughout the west.
The great value of the crop as a
money maker Is the main factor
which Is introducing It Into the ag
riculture of the Central west. Where
alfalfa can be successfully marketed
or fed. no other crop grown In the
west will yield so great a net profit
per acre in a series of years.
LONG CONTEST CASE.
Lnnd Contest Ha Lasted Three Days
in Local I .and Office.
One of the longest drawn out land
contest , cases that has been held In
the local land office for some time. Is
now about to be completed, says the
La Grande Observer. It started three
days ago and has been under con
stant action until this afternoon.
The parties interested "are Pilot
Rock people. Joseph Shields Is 'the
contestant, and Thomas D. Wough
the contestee. Attorney J. T. Wil
liamson is appearing for the former
and Colonel James H. Raley of Pen
dleton, for the latter. The land In
contention Is located about two miles
from Pilot Rock. Both parties hope
to complete their testimony tonight.
Kemmerer Coal Man Here.
T. J. O'Brien, a coal dealer of Kem
merer, Wyo., was In the city last eve

Charles W. Lewis, a Big Bottom

The
.General Demand
of the Well-informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant
and efficient liquid laxative remedy of
known value; a laxative which physi
cians could sanction for family use
because its component parts are
known to them to be wholesome and
truly beneficial ia effect, acceptable
to the system and gentle, yet prompt,
In action.
In supplying that demand with Us
excellent combination of Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of Senna, the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along
ethical lines and relies on the merits
of the laxative for its remarkable
success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna Is
given the preference by the Well
informed. To get Its beneficial effects
always buy the genulne-manufao
