Sometimes weather conditions make It almost la poos I bio to put alfalfa bay In the stack in good condition, and heating and burnlag resu 1 la. A. IL Loldllgb, aaalataat professor of crop« st tho Kansas Agricultural collage, saya * comparison will show why tbe water does not readily cure out of the stoma. If a tree is cut down on a oool, cloudy day, said Professor Leld- llgh, the leaves remain green and frosh for some time. They take water from the trunk and pass it oS into the atmosphere. If tho weather is reasonably cool for a few days, tho water will ail be taken out of the tree. Now, if the tree la cut down on a hot, sultry day tho leaves will dry up and fall off. Tho water la still In the trunk of the tree, and there la no way for It to get out quickly. It Is tho same with alfalfa. When It la Impossible to wring water out of the hay. saya I’m feasor Leldllgh, it Is dry enough to stack. The beat way to cure bay la to rake it Into small winrows and let it dry out slowly. If the ground la damp, or if the air la very moist, the wlnrows must be turned frequent/ to expose all the hay to the sun. Hay often heats in the atack be cause It is rained on, or because it ab sorbs moisture from the ground. Not lees thah (5 to $10 worth of hay is spoiled on the top and bottom of a 25-foot atack of alfalfa, put up tn the usual way. This loss may be avoided by stacking on a foundation of poles, or under abeda. The money saved on a few stacks will pay for the abed. Opinions differ on just how much tho feeding value of alfalfa la af fected by heating. Some argue that while it lowers the feeding value, it improves the taste. Cattle usually eat brown and black alfalfa with more relish than they do the bright green hay. SPRAY MACHINE IS USEFUL GROWING TRUCK CROPS Three Acres Devoted to Sash Gardening Is Profitable. Great Care Should Be Exercised In Gathering, Packing and Marketing of Vegetables In Ordsr to Secure Fancy Prices. (By W. IL BKATTIK.I In certain localities where the cli- mate Is mild, such crops aa parsley, lettuce, radishes and beets can be grown during the winter months if provision is made for protecting the plants during the few periods of freezing weather.

Cheap hotbeds, constructed in long lines with plank sides, may be profitably employed for forcing vege tables for the market In the neigh borhood of large cities, where an abundance of manure for heating ma terial may be obtained.
