An??cr: From the description con
tained in your letter you have treated
your alfalfa generoualy. and you
should l>e abje t.? bold the stand, pro
vided. of eonr.-e, the MUbsoIl is not too
tenacious So doubt you realize the
Importance of alfalfa making a line
loot development. The trouble you
exp-rienee at the present time should
b;; idly In- due to an acid soil. though
j oil in i It t test it with litmus paper
and then you would know definitely.
? Jet a niekel's worth of blue litmus
papf-r at any drug store; take a hand
ful of the soil an Inch or two below
the Mirfaoe, moisten well with rain
water and Insert a piece of the litmus
paper. If the paper turn red the soil
is undoubtedly arid, and lime should
In- applied at the rate of twenty live
l ushels per acre. You should first clip
the alfalfa and Ho n broadcast the lime
and work in well with a harrow. The
t.i' t dial a large number of nodules
have not developr-d may lie due to an
arid condition of the soil, and though
\ oil applied li'Mi pounds of preparrd
lime, it may not have been suthcient
for the pui pose.
W in n alfalfa turns yellow il Is often
due to one of 1 wo things? eithi r an
at tayk of the leaf spot or rust or the
need of nitrogen. Judging from your
letter yon did not nppiy any nitrogen
in the form ..f fertilizer and it is likely
that your land is low in humus or
vegetable matter. It would lie almost
impossible to fl|>ply humus to the *oil
In a satisfactory manner now. How
ever you might clip tin* alfalfa and
apply a top dressing of farmyard ma
i lire at the rate of ten to fifteen t"ii?
per acre, and an application of nitrate
of soda will also probably prove ef
fective, say HHi pounds per acre, put on
as a l"p dressing.* It should l?e put on

tdtould < lp t ii?? alfalfa frequently lhis;
year .Mini not attempt to get any l:ay, |
anil that will tend to throw 1 1: ??
strength of th? plant;* hark in the
roots ami Insure their making a more
substantial growth. If you can only
pet the alfalfa deeply rooted and "weli
established In the #sOl 1 you should he
able to maintain it provided you fefd
It liberally. Alfalfa must have plenti
ful supplies of nitrogen, which it must
obtnln through th? bacteria living In
association with the nodule* on its
root?, or directly from the soil, and If
the nodules do appear In large
number* you ran hardly hope to main
tain tho alfalfp.
If you follow* persistent clipping and
the suggestion? made above and do not
, gel aallsfiKipry results, plow up the
; land this fall, top dress heavily With
farmyard manure, subsoil and resrod.
j my judgment farmers who attempt
| to grow alfalfa and f.'ll to get satis
| factory results the first yc?nr or two
f should not give up The bacteria do
j not take kindly to all soil*, nor do th y

1. The proclamation of King Cyril*
to returu Ai, l 4>. J. "Flr?t your of
Cyrus." TlWit is hia tir*t year a* *oie
king at Babylon, lit- was king, t neatly
years before this. of Klam and gradu
ally extended his empire over the Per
sians and Mede*. Baby Ionian* and
Chaldean*. For two year# after the
capture of Babylon Darius was king
of Babylon under Cyru*. Now Cyrus
reigned at Babylon. "Word of the
Lord." See Jer. 2.":12; 29:10. The
promise was that after seventy years
the Lord would bring His people
again to Palestine. "Stirred up? Cy
ril*." There is good reason to accept
the Jewish tradition according to Jo
seph us, that Daniel, occupying a h*gh
position in the court of Cyrus, brought
to his attention the prophecies of
Isaiah, which name Cyrus as God's j
servant (Isa. 44:20-24$; 45:1-4), and per- :
hap* also, the prophecies of Jeremiah, ;
?bowing that God. had for this purpose
given Babylon into the hand* of Cyrus.
"Mado a proclamation." See chapter
0. "In writing." To prevent any mis
take or reversal.
2. "God of heaven." Hence the Con
troller of all men and affairs. "Clod of
heaven" seems to have been a usual
title of the Supreme Being among the
Persians. At this time the Medo-Per
sian empire was very extensive, ex
tending on the east to the Ited Sea, on
the north to the Black Sea. on the west
to the Island of Cyprus and Kgypt und
on the south to Rthopia. "Hath
charged me," etc. Cyrus probably ac
cepted t lie prophecy of Isaiah as a
charge to build the temple. "The ex
istence of predictions in which, 200 j
years before lie was born, his victor
ions career and t lie important service*
he should render to the Jews -wore
foretold, led him to acknowledge that
nil his kingdoms were gifts bestowed
on hlin by 'the Lord (lod of heaven,'
and prompted him to fulfill the duty
whi' h had been laid upon him long
before his birth. This was the source
and origin of ihe great favor he
showed to the Jews." 3. "Who is ?
there among you." The return was to
bo a volunteer movement. "His God
be with him." A pious wish, indicat
ing the deep religious feeling and good
ness of heart which characterized Cy
rus alone of Persian monarchs. lie |
ruled his subjects like a father. No j
nobler character appears In ancient j
history. "Let him to" As the carry
ing away of the Hebrews had taken i
place at intervals of from seventy to J
fifty years before, there were but few j
of the original exiles remaining, and It
i? somewhat remarkable that so many
of their descendants, nearly 50,000 in
all. should be willing io go to a conn- j
try they had. never seen. "Build the j
house." This was their great errand. |
not to build their own houses, but the J
house of Cod. "He is the God." We I
can understand this gr^at. truth far i
in<>re cleariy than could Cyrus Let us j
see to it that we live out the knowledge j
which we possess. !
-!. "Whosoever remaineth." Some j
persons of trun nnd eminent piety j
so situated that they did not deem it ;
their duty to go. as Daniel in the court i
of Cyru'*, others were hindered by old I
age. Many more returned than we
read of being carried away captive. |
"Let t lie men? help him." I.et the j
heathen population help him. "Free j
will offering.'' Probably that made by j
Cyrus himself.
II. The captives make preparations j
for the return (vs. 5-11 >. r>. "Chief of I
the fathers." Venerable men, heads of j
families, some of whom had seen the j
first teanpie. "Judah and Benjamin." ?
These tribes. Ia6t exiled, were the first
to return. But that 'here were many
from the other tribes a so who returned
appears from many other passages. 0. ?
"Strengthened their/ hands." Their {
neighbors hplpcd them and coutrlb- I
uted liberally. 7. "Cyrus? brought
forth." etc. Nebuchadnezzar little :
thought that ho was unconsciously pre- !
serving the sircred vessels of Israel in ?
a safe and inviolable stronghold, till |
the day when Jehovah would bring j
about their restoration to HH people.
S. ' ""Rlieshbazzar.**""' The Chaldee or j
Persian name of Zerubbabel, given ?
him nt court as other namea were j
given to Daniel and ills friends. Born
in Babylon and named by his friends i
Zerubbabel (exile In Babylon). He \
wajj yecognlzed as hereditary prince of
Judah; was leader of the first company j
of exile? and director of t lie rebuilding j
of the temple.

to complete the rebuilding of the tna- :

seventy years after the destruction of I
the t?raple. The second Jewish leader |
was Ezra, who went up from Babylon :
about eighty years after Zerubbabei,
in th? seventh year of Artaxcrxes

restore the institutions of Moses. The
third Jewish leader was Neliemiah.
who went up from Susa. or Shushau,

Ovor twenty yeors apo S P. Ives. a

ty. and Chailes P. Thompson of the
superlqr court were pitted agalnsi
earh <?ther In an important life insur

After lengthy arguments the Judge
decided in Mr. Thompson's favor, and
he proceeded to read, with much em
