Cloud Co. Bank. Dan French, while in our oflice one day this week, gave us the following Information regarding alfalfa raising, and as he is one of the most extensive growers of the plant in Cloud county, he is prepared to speak authoritively on the subject. Grant township is the banner alfalfa district of the county, the average yield of seed being above 10 bushels to the acre, and the entire value of the crop, seed and hay, $50 per acre at a low estimate. In putting up alfalfa, either for seed or hay, it up at once after the mower and let it cure in the shock.

There is no danger of it heating in the shock in this climate, and the hay will be saved with the leaves on the stalks. Mr. French intends to sow 100 acres more to alfalfa this spring. For Better Roads. concerned.

County Clerk Lam ay has been notified by the secretary of the state board of agriculture that owing to the delay of the house in making appropriations for printing, the blanks which should be furnished by the state to the assessors will be delayed several days, thus making the assessment "later this spring than usual. The statistics required by the state cannot well be taken on any of the old blanks. Mr. Lamay has notified the assessors as to the cause of the delay. The statistics of 1894 give 4,312 acres of alfalfa in Cloud county and 543 acres of all other tame grasses, making about 8 acres of alfalfa Square Dealing Clothiers.

Alliant: In as much as there are in each township more or less persons who need assistance from the county fund, would it not be a good plan to place a fund in the hands of the trustee for the purpose of aiding such persons As our roads need repairing, let the trustee require each man who needs a part of such fund and who is able to perform manual labor to work on the roads to the amount of such assistance rendered.

FARM FOR SALE. dreadful habitual sick headaches yield The Wealth Makers, published at Lincoln, Nebraska, and edited by George Howard Gibson, author of the famous political and industrial song book, Armageddon, is devoted to the study of the moral, social, economic, and political questions.

It is holding up the divinely perfect, new (yet old) standards-of justice. It is making plain the source, in long established injustice, of the social antagonisms which threaten revolution. It is proving to the selfish that selfishness is unprofitable, and to the unselfish that organization is necessary. It urges first that the wealth makers combine their voting strength and recover the government from the control of the wealth takers, the monopolists; and it is breaking down every position of the old, time-honored, society-stratifying conception of slavery, that it is well for some to labor without gain, in order that others may gain without labor. Its mottoes are: the Swrat of Thif Fiw Shalt ThH Eat trill Hot MWt Srilhrr l.rt Him Kat." We believe there is not a paper published whose light upon social, economic, political, and religious questions is more clear or valuable.

Religiously it is in full accord with Professor Her-ron's teachings, which have so startled the church and stirred the world; and it will publish specially prepared reports of his lectures as they are delivered upon economics and Applied Christianity before the students of Iowa College. TheWEALTH Makers sharply criticises the churches, but only wherein they are not Christian. It believes the moral sense is the sense to appeal to, while presenting facts and pointing out results, and that the moral law made plain will at last draw all men together and form them into a perfect society. We wish to circulate the Wealth Makers everywhere. It is needed and will be wonh far more than it costs in every wealth maker's home, because it reasons simply and clearly and an ed-ucu along hew lines.
