HE alfalfa crop has-never failed in California; either in i production or remunerative price. No farmer who has stuck to raising alfalfa has ever failed. While the profits vary considerably, alfalfa farming is uniformly successful. Its history is not a record of ups and downs, of bad harvests and unprofitable prices. The yield has always been certain and returns remunerative. It is needless to say that alfalfa is an irrigated crop, Irrigation is necessary to the production of alfalfa, therefore alfalfa has been a stimulus to irrigation. The valne of irrigation is much better understood in the United States because of the introduction of alfalfa in California. In Utah, Nevada, Arizona, Idaho, Colorado, Kansas and Texas there are thousands of acres under ditch and in cultivation because of alfalfa. Practically all the lands in the West devoted to alfalfa culture were arid and barren prior to irrigation, They were placed under irrigation because of alfalfa. ; In the darkest period of agricultural depression in this Slate, when grain and fruit growers alike were producing crops at a loss or facing the ruinous consequences of drouth or other visitation causing crop failure, the alfalfa producers remained prosperous. The crop did not fail and it could always be turned to financial account. The reason is that alfalfa is less a product of labor and more a product of the soil intelligently handled than almost apy other crop. It can be Stored at no cost for an indefinite period without substantial deterioration. It will stay in a stack for five years and still be good, It is not subject to the attack of pests as grain is, and does not decay like fruit. Alfalfa represents a dozen staples. It produces beef, pork, mutton, wool, horses, hides, butter, milk and cheese. Of all the missionaries of irrigation, alfalfa is the chief evangel. Ifa floralemblem were desired to represent the State’s most prosperous and permanent husbandry, no more ‘fitting one could be named than the rich purple blossom that crowns the alfalfa stalk. Before many years the alfalfa crop will exceed in value the yield of the gold mines. Herbert W.

McAdie’s prediction for clearing weather last night did not materialize as correct prophecy for this section, notwithetanding the indications that manifested themselves yesterday for sacha turn. On the contrary, however, another snowstorm set jn last evening about nine o’clock, and the flaky substance being extremely light and dry io character it piled up quiie fast and by morning there was a fall of over eight inches. There was much rejoicing among the children today who took great pleasure in frolicing in the snow and snowballing one another to and from school. Many “older” children found enjoyment in this way while a few others found deligh'ful pleasure in sleigh and cutter ridiug* The sky partly cleared again today and the warm sun shone brightly at iotervals. The indications are for clearing weather but there were many today who insisted that they could still ‘‘scent” snow inthe air and that another installment was coming. The snow is reported to be four feet deep at Graniteville, and all through the upper country sleighs have taken the place of vehicles with the traveling public. ——_____+-ee Joined in Wedlock.

McAdie’s prediction for clearing weather last night did not materialize as correct prophecy for this section, notwithetanding the indications that manifested themselves yesterday for sacha turn. On the contrary, however, another snowstorm set jn last evening about nine o’clock, and the flaky substance being extremely light and dry io character it piled up quiie fast and by morning there was a fall of over eight inches.
