MAXIMUM PRODUCTION OF ALFALFA CROP TO BE AIM OF NATRONA CAMPAIGN Alfalfa, the princi in this section of Wyoming, does not make the growth that it should be cause scientfic methods of protecting the crop are not in vogue. In order crop returns which result from present practices, G. M. Penley county agricultural agent, is instituting a camyaign among farmers of this district to show how maximum alfalfa returns can be secured. In some instances the lack of mois ture is responsibie for small crop yields per acre but the main difficulty in this district is the lack of nitro. gen in the soil. Often in going over an alfalfa field where water is used t is noticeable that scrubby growth and a yellowish tinge to foliage oc- curs in well watered spots. 1 forage crop tinction of being the tallest business building in the United States outside of New York City. It is of concrete an@ steel, and was completed ten years ago at a cost of three million dollars. It nets the compnay five and a half per cent on the investment. Mr. McGrew who until the first of the year, had been connected with the Capitol Life of Colorado in the ca- pacity of general agent for five years, states that in affiliating himeetf with the Union Central, which is one of the biggest and best life insurance companies in the United States he feels that he is greatly increasing his usefulness to the insuring public. The Union Central has farm loans in 33 states amounting to over $117, 000,000 on a valuation of over $416 000,000. The volume of their farm loans in Colorado and Montana is very great avd hax been a great factor in the devepment of these respective states. This is the first state agency to bo located in Wyoming by one of the large eastern companies, and indicates the importance this state is assuming in the eyes of the enst. Se Sse ae A Examination of acres thus effect. ed shows that the nitrogen has been washed out, It is true also in some places that the scrubby crop ts due to overirrigation which brings the same ill-effects as lack of nitrogen. These conditions can be remedied to @ large extent by innoculating the alfalfa seed when planted. Innocula- tion is a simple treatment which is known to bring excellent results. The material required for innocula- tion can be secured through the coun- ty agent's office and the low expense, leas than 35 cents an acre should en- able all persons to this protect their crops. “No one should hesitate to secure relief” said Mr. Penley, “because the small financial outlay has oftimes re- sulted in the alfalfa being doubled.” Mase oT CA. MGREW BECOMES WYOMING AGENT FOR UNION CENTRAL LIFE McGrew has returned from an extended triptto Gincinnati, Ohio, and other points east. He reports that while business conditions in the extreme castern states have somewhat improved the prevailing idea is that it will be some time before the various economic factors entering into the present situation will be worked out satisfactorily an@ permit the country to enjoy normal business conditions. While in Cincinnati, Mr. McGrew closed a contract with the Union Cen- tral Life Insurance company of that city for its Wyoming agency, which has heretofore been handled through Denver. The home office in Cincinnati is lo- cated in the Unton Central building, which building enjoys the unique dis: QUEEN GROCERY OPENED AT 12TH AND LINGO W. J. Tubbs and A.

Créoker, who was a deputy sheriff at the time, was also threatened by Pet- erson, it is alleged, two shots having been fired into the sidewalk at his feet.

Perfection of regulations which will cover the traffic problems in the con- gested areas of Casper is still a moot. ed question. Strong opposition to the present methods of handling traffic in the congested areas, charges of lax en- forcement of parking laws and do nunciation of the plan to permit taxi- cabs and other commercial vehicles parking in the restricted area were presented to the city council in rapid succession last night by a delegation of members of the chamber of com: merce, comprising the full board of directors of the organizacion. Concluding a debate in which the Position of the city council, the objects the commercial vehicle associations and the objection of the chamber of commerce were all placed on record, Walter W. Keefe, addressed the in- terested parties, terminating the dis- cussion and pledging the protestors that the streets would not be used for parking by tax cabs. The views of the chamber of com- merce delegation were placed before the city council by Attorney A. B. Stirrett, Harry L. Black, chairman of the traffic committee, and by Charles B.

Boeke, city attorney, sug- gested that it was possible for him to loige a charge against a property owner here in one of whose houses “moonshine’ had been found.
