In Memonam.
On the evening of July 1/th,
11113, altout five o’clock, th<‘ angel
<>l death saw fit to visit our com
munity and take from us one of
nur dear friends and Sunday School
scholars, Bosey Floyd, whose face
we cannot see any more.
All that loving hands could do
was done for him, hut alas it was
hold's will to call the gentle spirit
to meet its maker.
His greatest joy seemed to be in
making others happy. 1 here never
lived a more devoted son, brother
and friend. Oh, how he will lie
mis.sed, but we must, admit that our
great loss is his eternal gain, the
many little deeds that lie did, the
kind words he spoke, the hands
that are still and the voice that we
will never hear again.
Unsolved, That we the Limestone
Baptist Sunday School extend to
the bereaved family our heartfelt
sympathy, and pray that Hod will
|,o dose to them in this their sad
bereavement.
A friendly one is gone,
A vioec made still,
A place made vacant in our school,
A place that cannot lie tilled.
Hope on, hope on, Oh troubled
hearts
If doubts and fears o’er take thee,
Uemembcr this, the Lord has said
Me never will forsake thee,
Then murmer not, st ill bear Iby lot,
Nor yield to care or sorrow,
Be sure the clouds that form today
Will break in smiles tomorrow.
I lope on, hope on, t hough dark and
deep
Shadows gather o’er (bee,
Remember this, the Savior holds
The lamp of life before t bee
\nd if he wills that thou today
Sliouldst tread the vale of sorrow,
Be not afraid but trust, and wait
The sun will shine tomorrow.
Hope on, hope on, go bravely
forth,
'l’llrough trials and temptations
Directed by the words of truth
And so full of consolation.
There is is calm for every storm,
A joy for every sorrow,
A night from which the soul shall
wake,
To hail an enless morn,
The dead in Christ are only sleep
ing
Though their beds be made of clay,
They shall rise and joyfully meet
When he conn's in that great day.
We who live shall see his glory,
But the dead shall first arise
Then together we will hail Him,
King Immanuel in the skies.
Oh, be rolled and ready loved ones.
I,ct us hail the mighty K ing.
Singing grave where is thy victory,
And. Oh death where is tho sting?

The Ginger Man.
Sometimes the weather puts ginger
into some men. Then there is a kind
of man that nil the time puts ginger
Into everybody around hint. Nobody
in tills old world is more useful to it
than the chap who gives iiis fellow
men shots of ginger in all kinds of
weather.

ALFALFA MOST
PROFITABLE CROP
Adds Fertility to the Soil—Yields
Three to Four Crops of Hay
Each Year in the Corn Belt.
EXCELS EVERY OTHER CROP
The Introduction of Alfalfa as a Gen
eral Farm Crop in the United States
Will Revolutionize Agriculture—
Means More Live Stock, Better
Soil and Larger Returns From
the Crops That Follow.
By PROF. P. G. HOLDEN, Director
Agricultural Extension Department
International Harvester Co. of New
Jersey.
Alfalfa Should be Grown
on Every Farm
1. It is a profitable crop.
2. Increases farm values.
3. Excels every other crop
In yield per acre
In feeding value
As a drouth resister
As a soil enricher.
4. No harder to grow than clover.
5. Make a beginning— start now
grow some alfalfa.
Repeated experiments made by tho
agricultural colleges, and the results
obtained by the actual growers of al
falfa In the semi-arld sections of tho
west, throughout tho corn bolt states,
and in the south and east, are conclu
sive evidence of tho great value of
alfalfa.
There are few farmers whoso profits
would not bo increased greatly by rais
ing alfalfa. Every farmer should aim
to produce, as far as possible, his
foodstuffs upon his own farm.
During the last few years, the area
devoted to alfalfa lias greutly in
creased in the region west of the Mis
souri river, and it iB certain that
there will be an equally rapid in
crease throughout tho eastern and
southern parts of the United States.
Many of tho attempts in the past
to grow alfalfa in tho humid regions
have failed, hut with our present
knowledge of tho requirements of the
crop there will be little, if any, more
trouble in securing a stand.
Alfalfa will soon be grown abun
dantly and profitably upon every farm.
It is no more difficult to grow than
clover and gives double the yield. Tho
deep rooting habit of alfalfa enables
It to resist drouth when clover, tim
othy, blue grass and other forage
grasses die for want of moisture. Al
falfa roots grow deep into the soil —
far beyond the roots of other plants.
Its drouth resisting power Is of no
greater importance than its great
value as a soil enricher. The long
roots bring phosphorus, potash and
other plant foods from below and
store them in the upper soil for tho
use of other plants. Experiments show
greatly increased yields of other crops
grown upon alfalfa sod.
Alfalfa is rich in protein the most
essential element in feed to make
bone, blood and muscle iu growing ani
mals.
Why We Need Alfalfa.
There is no combination of feeds
so economical for the production of
beef, pork, mutton, butter and eggs,
as corn and alfalfa. Neither will give
the best, results alone. We need alfal
fa because it balances up the corn
ration and saves the large waste of
starch which always takes place
where corn is fed alone. We need
alfalfa because we cau by means of it
grow on our own farms the protein
more profitably than we can buy it in
feed stuffs. We need alfalfa because
it feeds the soil and enables us to
grow larger crops of corn and oats.
We need alfalfa because it produces
on an average double the feed value
per acre of clover or any other forage
crop.
Advisable to Inoculate.
In regions where alfalfa has not
been grown it is found to be neces
sary to inoculate the ground by sow
ing three or four bags of soil secured
from a field whero alfalfa or sweet
clover has been grown for a
number of years; or where it
is more convenient, artificial cul
ture, such as "nitragin,” “farmo
gerrn,” etc., may be applied. Where
alfalfa has not been grown before it
may make the difference between suc
cess and failure.
Alfalfa Essentials.
A well prepared, firm, solid seed
bed, plenty of good barnyard manure,
and fallow to kill the weeds, are most
important. Lime? Yes, one to two
loads per acre, and by all means in
oculate. Ground too wet for corn is
not suited for alfalfa.
Make a Beginning—Start Now.
Every farmer should try at least
a small piece of alfalfa and if he
does not succeed at first, try
again and keep on trying until he does
succeed. It is worth the while. If
the work is thoroughly done and at
the proper time, you will most cer
tainly succeed in securing a good
stand; if the work is half done and
out of season, you will just as cer
tainly fail. Make a beginning—start
now.
