Cottrell. agricultural commis sioner of the Hock Island linen, hr.H lately sent out warnings to the farm era of the middle western states that the seed com that Is available lu much of the territory tributary to this sys tem Ih of very low grade this year, lie Htates that there Is very little good aeed In southern Nebraska, Kansas. .Missouri. Oklahoma and northwestern Texas, seed from last year's crop be ing unsafe to plant nnd much of the 11)12 crop showing poor germination, lie further warn fanner against buy ing seed corn outside of their owu counties mid particularly from any con siderable, distance, ns a reduced yield is almost sure to result Homo very important things are yei to bo Ica-ncd. In some parta of tho dry belt it will succeed when grown In the ordinary way. In other parts ; it will not rucceed when thus grown. l y growing in tho ordinary way Is Meant growing It so that the plants w.ll occupy all the land as contrasted 01 Hi the method If sowing In rows fur dlatan'. from one another. In nearly all areas in the .loryi vh:, whom the precipitation i I inches and upwards In a year, alfalfa may bo succcsHfully grown, though tho plants should not occupy all the hoII, providing not more than 6 pounds of good need are grown per acre. From one to two good cuttings may bo secured each year where this crop Is properly managed, which will yield from 1 to 3 tons of good bny In a year. Where the rain fall Ih less than 15 Inches there are some good areas In which one good cutting may be looked for every year, but there arc other areas that will not produce a crop worth cutting in a dry year when tho plants occupy all tho land, no matter how the crop is cared for. The plants will live but they will only make a feeble growth. Tlm nooner that this fact Is widely ""derntood the hotter, ns those who understand It will be tho more ready to how the crop in rows far enough apart to admit of cultivation be tween them. This Is the surest way of irrowing alfalfa even when grow I".;; it for hay where tho preclpl ntit.ii falls below 15 Inches. There are Home soils however, that are so j farlahlo for a goodly distance frorh the surface that they will give a crop every year, but whero the sub noil la very hard and dry, and be fore; It has been broken up. It will not produce this In a dry year when kdii broadcast. The following facts based upon ex perience have been learned about tlm sowing of alfalfa in dry. areas: (1) That a stand of plants may be obtained readily on nearly all North western soils but this does not fur nish a sure guarantee of a paying croo In the absence of row cultiva tion. (2) That while inoculating the sell Ih In nil instances a safe thing to do, it is not absolutely nec e;.sar o'n all soils. (3) That the aim should bo to sow the crop on land that has been thoroughly cleaned by careful cultivation tho season before. .' i : That the plan Is. not good which sown alfalfa on newly broken land, howsoever well broken, or on shol l v plowed ground though the same may have been worked for several venrs. (a) That a liberal Incorpora tion of farm yard manure in the soil tho year before sowing Is very helpful to the growth of the plants. t That not more than 5 to 6 lounds of good seed should be sown ut acre on the broadcast plan and lot more than 2 pounds v'hen sown n rows inches distant from each thcr. (7) That except on soils that ' rl rt nnd on lands .subjected to lr 'igailon, the seed should be sown vtthout a nurso crop- (8) That stlrr ir i'ne soil with the disk or some tlmr suitable Instrument in the mringls very helpful to tho growth nf tho plants when sown on the broadcast plan. (9) That when sown1 f r need the plants should be thinned In some way In tho rows where the most abundant production of seed is looked for. (10) That the nlm .huuld bo to have tho crop go Into ho winter, with a top growth not 'ess than 4 to 6 Inches, When alfalfa is t.i bo sown in dry Teas the procedure should be In out line as follows: FIther summer fal low tho land or grow on It some cul tivated crop and give clean and thor ough cultivation. This Is done the year before sowing the seed. The land should bo plowed deeply and on must soil subsoillng in addition will be a very decided help. If a liberal supply of farm yard mnnure has been supplied to tlio land, before it 'a plowod, the condition will be so far improved. The following spring 'he land ahould be dls' ed, but only o a moderate depth, and the disk followed by the harrow. The harrow should be asaln used, nnd again !f necosary. before sowing the aeed 'n early June, the season when show ra are most likely to fall. The seed should be put In wih the grain drill all the tubes running, or overy al ternate tube In use, only a limited number according to the plan decid ed upon. If sown In rows to be cul tivated like corn, 26 Inches between the rows will be found a convenient or G Inches, but not at an earlier stage. On lands that are sub-irrigated, as In . omo river bottoms and at the base of certain foothills, two good cuttings may be depended upon every year. On Irrigated lands three cuttings are common in Northwcst I ern areas. On such lands the aeed i Is usually sown with a nurse crop. For ruch a use barley la very suit able. From 12 to 15 poundt of seed per acre are commonly sown but 10 to 12 pounds will usually be found ampin on well prepared land, the seed also being of good quality. HOTEL LAKEVIEW S;M?.Hr Longevity in Modoc County lloastlng of the healthfulness of Modoc County's climate, the Plain dealer remarks as follows: At the present there are but seven inmates of the Modoc County hospital, bat their combined age total 671 years. Tho liHt Is beaded by Daniel Vm'.cr at 93, David Holton 84, Wm. Nagle 83, David Knee and Jim Gunn 82, Pete Whalen 77 aud Joseph Kilaln 70. Jim Gunn saw service, it is claimed, in the Crimean war. There i are many other men and women I throughout Modoc County who are j much older than those named above, all of which goes to show that Modoc i cannot be excelled for health and longevity of her Inhabitants. In fact, there are a lot of old fellows that will havo to be shot on the day of Judgment or taken up bodily, like Elijah of old. Kll.etor In Modoc It is reported that A. W'hito of New York, who lately ' arrived at Falrport. ha nnouueed that l.'J has taken un option on a lavre Jr-posit of saltpeter deposit near Davis Creek and that be is now making a thor ough investigation of the property. It is said that the salt peter de posits have long been known tf exist, but nothing had ever been done with them. They are reporteo to be very extensive and of good tuallty. The property belongs to J. T. Ncgley and others of Alturas. Mr. White is quoted with the statement that the property will, if It nieets his requirements, make Mo doc famous throughout the world. o Illietimatic Pains Kelieved Wby suffer from rheumatism when relief may be had at so small a cost?
