The way the farmers are putting In

Grants Pass Saturday.
The Murphy Outlaws and the Mis
souri Flat Tigers crossed hats at the
ball grounds on the Smith & McCloud
place Sunday In one of the hottest
contests that this part of southern
Oregon has seen for many a day. It
was nobody's game up to the 13th
inning, but during that inning the
tie was broken and the Tigers car
ried off the honors of the day. Her
man McFadden handled the pellet
for the Tigers with the same vim that
he did for the big brush last season
and Joe McFadden, formerly of the
Ophlr, Alaska, ball team, acted the
part of backstop. The McGuffin
brothers, late from the east, were the
battery for the Outlaws and many
times during the course of the game
they kept the Tigers guessing. L. W
CarBon was umpire, and every one
was pleased with the fearless way he
handled the game, as all his decisions
were fair and just and no time dur
ing the game did w hear that awful
expression used, "kill the umpire."

MOMXK ALFALFA KKXOVATOK AM SKKDKIt ATTACHMENT.
To keep an alfalfa field In good condition it must be cultivated
at least once each season. The most successful and experienced
growers cultivate after each cutting. The latter practice is growing
In favor as alfalfa raisers progress in knowledge and become better
acquainted with the peculiarities of the plant and the conditions
and treatment that produce the best results.
I'nlike many grasses the alfalfa plant has no creeping roots.
It becomes thicker on the ground by increasing the size of the crown,
which means to add more growing stalks or branches to the top of
the plant. The crowns grow to such size that the sod becomes very
compact, causing the plants to die out in spots, and permitting
weeds to gain a foothold in the field. The remedy for this condi
tion, as well as a preventive. Is thorough cultivation with some tool
that will split the crowns vertically. Formerly disc harrows were
used for this purpose, but as alfalfa ground is frequently dry and
hard the harrows lacked sufficient penetration to accomplish the de
sired result. To overcome this difficulty we use pointed teeth Instead
of discs. Thl3 arrangements Is so successful that alfalfa growers
adopt it upon Bight. It has proven to be just the tool for the work.
