The Rev. DIR. Gather had Breakfast IN = Al
tlmore yesterday to get subscriptions for his
Christian Moral Science Association. Afte- he
had explained the object of his mission, aeon
vrrsstional debate ensued among the clers,msn
add laymen present, the SHa says, and ia the
courss Of eolloquy on the management OF the
funds OF the association DIR. Eddy, Methodist
remarked that the American people hold on to
money until they know what Is to be done with
IT. Dr. Gather said that question had Arisen at
breakfast before, and he thought in advance
OF the time. Dr. Eddy said that they did not
ike any hesitation IN answering questions and
then DC lectuTed for asking what was to be done
with the money. Dr. Gather denied that he h al
hesitated in answering any questions, aud an
pealed 10 the chair. Some warmth was nov
manifest IN the debate, but explanations were
made to the effect that the money affairs womb
rest entirely with the organization itself.

THE BEST USE OF CLOVER.

Let US see how clover enriches the soil.
First, it is plant that derives a large por-
ton of its materials from the air, and,
compared with the cereals, impoveri shes
the soil but little, even when the growth
above grounds wholly removed. But if
none of the growth be taken from the
field, the clover returns to the soil, in its
decay, what it has taken from it for its
formation. and, in addition, that which it
has received from the atmosphere. BY so
much as it absorbed from the air and in
corporated in its roots, stems and leaves,
will the plant food in the soil be increased,
if the entire growth be returned to the
earth
But the clover crop is beneficial in
mechanical way, also. Its roots naturally
penetrate deeply-go down into the sub
soil, where they gather plant food and
transfer it to the upper portions, as the
stems, leaves, and the thick fieshy roots,
Just below the surface of the ground.
Thus, by the clover, is the enriching mat
ter of the subsoil transferred largely to the
top-soil, where it is available for succeed
ing crops. The subsoil is likewise loosen
ed, some vegetable matter carried down
into it, and thus made more inviting for
the roots OF other and succeeding crops.
! If the clover plant is not cut or fed off, but
allowed to retain its tull growth, its roots
become longer and strike deeper into the
soil if it is grazed close. or frequently
mown, the growth of roots win be nearly
| in proportion to the growth of the branch
es. They will not be strong and large,
penetrating deeply, but fibrous and spread
ing through the topsoii.
The shading of the soil given by clover
/ that is not grazed is also highly beneficial.
Every practical farmer knows that II his
| field is kept moist, cool. shaded from the
summer sun, and protected from the dry
inc winds. it is far better than if it laid
bare by close grazing. The soil grows
| fertile under the shelter; it accumulates
nitrogen; it plows up loose and fine; it
Yields better crops. srt E..esa
1t is generally necessity with the farm
er to pasture his clover fields, to some ex-
tent, at least, but when his design is to en-
rich his land as much as possible with the
clover, he had better not pasture at all, but
roll down the clover when in full blossom,
and let the second growth spring up, and
also 90 down ON the field One year of
such management is worth two of pastur-
ing. Ea
When fall grain is to be sown, of course
the best way is to plow under the clover
crop, as everything is then saved to the
soil. When the field is not to be plowed
until spring, and the stems and leaves of
the clover die, the washing of the rains
extracts some of the salts they contain.
This would be waste if the earth did not
absorb them at once from the water, and
some writer's have claimed there is a large
waste in this manner, not considering that
the water runs with difficulty from field
that is covered with coat of dead clover
stalks, and the soil takes up all its fertiliz-
ing elements. BY evaporation there IS lit
tie or no aste.-Anlertcaa Rural Home.
