CLovER.-Where clover can be mown
more than once in season each time it is
cut the roots penetrate to greater depth
in the soil and subsoil, in search of food it
is therefore evident that this plant does not
receive all its support from the active surface
soil, put portion oft from greater depth
In the subsoil than mostordinary farm crops.
Besides this, have been led to believe from
experience and observation. that the roots
Of clover not only obtain portion of their
food for greater depth in the earth than is
penetrated by the plow, but that those roots
IN thus penetrating the subsoil in search of
food. actually bring up something which in
their decay strengthens and enriches thesoil
for future crops.

MANURING TREES. 1T is a mistaken no
ton that farmers have got into their heads
ofapplying all the manure close around the
foot of the trees. The roots run off for a
long distance, whence they obtain but slight
nourishment. Plowto aslight depth around
the trees, In circle, say from eight to ten
feet, and apply well-rotted barn-yard manure
and carefully dig away the dirt around the
base of the tree, and see if the borers are at
work. fso geta small piece of wire and
probe the wound and it is quite likely you
may hit the worm, if you see that you probe
1t out, and then apply some wood ashes
around the base and carefully replace the
earth, and you win see new vigor infused in
to these barren scrubby trees. Famrers neg
lect their trees too much-in PENNSYLVANIA
ifnoEhere else.

To FNDTHE WEIGHT OF SHEEP.-A good
way to ascertain the weight Of sheep that
you wish to sell for mutton, is to take it alive
and weigh it, and divide theamount by sew
en-. Thus, asheep that would weigh las
pounds, divided by seven, would give TWEEN
ty pounds dead weight, equal to the weight
of a quarter, or eigty pounds for the whole
mutton. The pelt and rough tallow would
make about twenty pounds more, thus ma
