Savory Vegetable.
Alfalfa is a very old plant. It was
taken from Persia to Greece by Xerxes
and his army, 500 B. C. Three hun
dred and fifty years later the Romans
carried it from Greece to Rome. Pliny,
the Roman naturalist, who lived the
first century after Christ, tells of its
value.
It was probably taken from Rome
to Carthage and the surrounding ter
ritory, and from there to Spain about
700 A. D. From Spain it was carried
to France, to Belgium und England.
It was esteemed in England when Co
lumbus discovered America. Cortez
brought it to Mexico, others took it to
Peru and Chile, and to New England.
In 1854, we have a record of it be

to improve 40 miles of road. Two
years after completing this road the
railroad shipped from Fredericksburg,
the county sent, during a period of 12
months, 71,000 tons of products of the
soil, hauled over the improved highway
to that town. Before the improvement
had been made the total was only 29,-

Results equally startling were shown
in the quantity of dairy products. In

Have a frying pan on the stove, put

DISTRESSING RHEUMATISM
When putting a heavy hay rack,

easily be put on without any heavy
lifting If the two wheels are taken oft
on one side where the tank, or what
ever It might be, is to be lifted on.
After the wheels are off the tank
can be lifted on and the axles can be
raised up with a long pole (one at a
time) and the wheels put on. Where
there are only one or two men it can
easily be taken off in the same way.
