Answer:The western grown alfalfa, speaking -generally, of the Grimm variety, seems to do best under con- ditions obtaining in the Northern half of this continent. The best time to sow alfalfa in. Ontario is in spring, . using a light nurse crop. +H. S.:--I have a field that is very thick with thistles. I have it into corn now. What is your advice about mowing alfalfa seed in August? Answer: I would not advise sowing alfalfa seed in August in your corn, . especially since your field is thistley. I would advise you to deeply fall plow _. your land and work it by disking and; harrowing as soon as the ground is dry enough in the spring.: Give it per- ¢ dodic workings every two weeks until "late May and early June. By this-time the thistles will be pretty well killed "out, Sew your alfalfa seed with a . light nurse crop, such as a bushel of ~ +. barley to the acre, and you should get ou ean do no-| sta d 2 a. gu." 0! a. good catch.

As to fall work: Yau might disk the land when you intend to sow to sweet clover after applying lime this fall. I would put on at least a ton of ground limestone to the acre and then disk it into the surface of the soil. In the spring plow the land fairly shallow and work it into a smooth seed bed, When you come to seeding, apply about 20 lbs. of sweet clover seed to the acre using a light]: nurse crop such as one to one and a half bushel of barley or wheat." In order to make sure of the catch, I would advise you to fertilize it as suggested in the answer above. 2. The green insects on the potato vines are aphids. This form of insect has a sucking mouth, which circumstance makes it of no use to spray with a poisonous liquid such as Paris green.

Golden Text, 1 Sam. 16: 7. . * The characters of David and Solo- mon, father and son, are presented to 7s in the Biblical narrative in striking contrast.

There is a likeness, * Yoo, in their love of justice, but Solo- .mon's extravagances and great enter- prises cost so much .that he was __ obliged, early in his reign, to resort to "some vi unjust and tyrannical measures, both to get money and sup- plies for his court and army, and to "{ get labor for his lewing, quarrying, and building.

He knew much from ob- servation,'and had a shrewd practical outlook upon life which finds expres- sion in his proverbs, but he never had the close contact and warm sympathy with the common people which David | had, and as time passed he grew more and more a stranger to them. They saw and prised his splendor and his wisdom, but they were restless and discontented under the burdens which his rule imposed upon them, It was a finé thing indeed to have a splendid temple and palaces in Jerusalem, but the ordinary Israelite thought more of 'his local sanctuary, the high place where his fathers had worshipped, and was not willing to give up one-third of his time to these remote and costly undertakings.
