Allah.l Without Irrigation. The recent abnormally dry seasons have caused a partial or almost a complete failu.ie of clove and other hay crops in many sections. As a result there is an unusual inquiry about pasture forage plants that promise a more certain •‘catch” than clover and are better able to endure drouth than the common clovers and grasses. Very naturally attention has been turned to alfalfa anddatlir corn, plants adapted to dry irrigated regions. Alfalfa preferred by many as it produces a hay equal to clover and has a similar ghod effect on the soil, although alfalfa can, when well started, endure drough better than clover, it cannot' produce three or more crops the same season without irrigation. Alfalfa has been grown at the Indiana experiment station for several years. As a result of trial, we find 1. That alfalfa is more feeble than clover at the start, and is very liable to be choked by weeds the first season. 2. That it increases in vigor until the third .year at least, and thus maintains tself better and longer in the soil than a red. mammoth or alsike clover. 3. That in very dry seasons—like 18'J5— it. may yield more hay than clover. 4. That in normal seasons it sometimes yields less than clover. 5. That but two cuttings of alfalfa may be. expected the same season without irrigation. In any fertile soil, having a sufficiently porous sub-soil, to germ it to strike deep rOot into the lower, permanently moist earth, the alfalfa will probably do well. It is said to do best in light, calcarious loams, underlaid with a porous sub-soil. The land should be thoroughly and deeply drained, and if the sub-soil is as all compact it may he plowed to advantage. Sub-soil in theffall, but sow the seed in the spring. Select ground as free as possible from weed seeds., and thoroughly prepare the seed bed as early in the spring as the ground will bear working well, if the Jami is worn it should be enr’ched before, or at the time of seeding. Commercial fertilizers supplying lime, phosphoric acid and potash are best at first, but farm manures may be used as a top dressing after the first yean Sow seed in shallow drills (15 to 20 pounds) or broadcast(2oto 25 pormdsPto the acre. If broadcast, harrow the seed in well. Heavily roll the ground to insure prompt and bven ggrmination. If necessary, mow the weeds with machine so as to admit light and air to the tender alfalfa plants, .and rake oil' the clipping if heavy. Do not harvest a crop the first season, unless the growth is very heavv. and even then do not cut late. Mow when in bloom aud cure the I same as clover. Close pasturijjg by any--class of stock is injurious to alfalfa, and sheep should no' ' be allowed upon it-, but if not grazed too ) <dose. it will endure pasturing fairly well, ft is. however, best tor hay.

When asked the question regarding my aim in hfei 1-hardly knew whether I could wri f e anything or not. bit thought I would proceed to do something of that sort. I expect to be a man of worth if lean, and I know 1 can by patient endeavor and skill. Ido not claim to be some great orator or the president of the United States: but ex peel to be what could be called commonly rich. I would be glad to be a carpenter for it haabeen said that a boy will comniimlyTollow his, father s footsteps, lint as no great wealth is obtained in that Work. I would like to be a merchant or grocer. because that .is the road to .prosperity. My father is a carpenter and that affords nne a good reason for wanting to bA a carpenter. because I could practice with old Loo's and accomplish what I have spoken of heretofore. Ada iieiiau.

In nine cases out often the trouble is with the digestive organs. If you can restore them to a healthy condition you will stop the waste put on new tlesh and cause them to teel better In every way. The food they eat will be digested and appropriated to the needs of the system, and a normal appetite will appear. Consumption frequently follows a wasting of bodily tissue because nearly all consumptiveshave indigestion. The Shaker Digestive Cordial will restore the stomach to a healthy condition in a vast majority of cases. Get one of their books from your druggist and learn about this new and valuable remedy.

ARCHBTSHfOP KENRICK DEAD. rrrlHfe FutaeM rrttcefully Away In Ilin Ninctictli Yrar. St. Lot ts. Match s.—Peter Richard Konrick, who for 55 years prlitr to three | years ago was lite Roman Catholic , archbishop of this dieeesc, died yester- ; day afti'rnoon in the S'Oth year of his age. His death wits peaceful and painless. There was no struggle as far as j iioiild be seen on his placid features. Ho was dead when his valet found him. For several years Ihe aged prelate has been in very feeble health, and about tlirgi; years ago Bishop John J. Kain of f /V Ak AltCltlllsllOP KKNKH K. Wheeling was elevated to an archbishopric and sent lutc to relieve him. The present winter has been very severe on him, and one or two incipient at tacks of pneumoitia nearly carried him off. It was a lung trouble, helped by senile debility, that laid him low at last. Atvhbishop Kenriek's death will disarrange the elaborate preparations that have been made for the reception ami entertainment of Cardinal Satolli. who was expected to arrive here next Monday morning. Cardinal Satolli will be apprised of the sad event, and his presence in the city will be in connection with the impressive burial services that will be given the dead prince of the cliure h. ' NOVEL SURGICAL OPERATION. Oue Muscle In a ( liihl’s I.rjf Made to Do the Work of Anol her. New York, March s.—Elsie Parmletta Heimrieli, a 2-year-old girl, after several hours play with her doll.Tost the use of her left leg. The extensor muscles were found to be atrophied, ami the limb was about an inch smaller in Circumference than its mate. Another muscle in the leg was not affected, that known as the-tailor’s mrisele. Dr. Milliken, vyho took charge of the case, concluded to make the tailor s muscle bring back the use of Elsie's leg, and at the same time exercise a function wholly dissimilar to itsiown. Elsie was put under ether, and the surgeon partially split the muscle. After having sheathed a branch ijt one of the paralyzi'd muscles he attached it to the kneotttp with sutures. An application of electricity immediately after the operation caused Elsie to slightly raise the leg. The doctor also grafted the tendons of tlm-foot, so that it-could be tiexed. The new sections of the muscle is now being educated. Elsie is made to feel that she can stand and readily raise her leg, and this self-confidence is at once apparent. She will in time, perhaps, change the action of the muscle alto"gether. Sh? may, however, never be able to attain perfect fi'exjon. ■luvcnile Horsethief. Mount Vernon; Ills..
