CLOVER As A FERTILIZER.

Not only should we bring to our assis-
lance every available stimulent to vegeta-
Die growth, but also at the same time that
kind should come first which is the cheap
est. A great deal has been written about
composing, collecting folest leates, dis
solving bones, and saving rubbish gener-
ally, all good in a measure and adding
their mite to the enriching of the land, but
not wholly satisfying the great craving of
the soil for food. 1t is the deduction our
leading farmers make from years expert
ence, that clover is the cheapest manure.
4 principal item is the cost of applying
fertilizers. eeF q nan at work hauling
!; barpyard manure. He must have team,
wagon and fork. He does :. good days
work if his covers an acre. ! send a man
to the field with bag CT clover seed on his
shoulders, and when night comes he has
seeded down ten acres Or more. He has
added more fertility to the soil than is con-
tanned in one hundred loads of common
barnyard manure. A not very distant
farmer says: u cannot afford to put my
straw back on my land so at i've dollars
ton his wheat straw goes to the paper
mill and is immediately converted into pa
per- and he buys clover seed with the mon
ey. Of course he can afford to put it back,
though the resulting profit would not be
near SO great as is commonly estimated.
1t seems to me better to grow clover-seed
and keep the straw too.
Clover protects the surface, hence it
may be truly called mulch. 4 thick mat
of clover prevents the escape from the earth
of fertilizIng properties that would other
wise be wasted. Leave board on the
ground for few MONTHS and no matter
how barren the Soil, profitable amount of
fertilizng material will accumulate under
this board. Just in this way does the
clover plant fetch up harfen, WORKOUT
land to a producing state. Possibly as
much hnmus is kept back to tho earth in
this way as is drawn from the air by the
leaves of the plant. Again, clover mellows
the soil. Land having natural tendency
to become pasty, heavy and tough may be
converted, with liberal seeding into mel
low. friable seed bed, and when we have
got a mellow soil we have reduced the
expense of cultivation.
Again heavy coat of clover keeps down
many kinds of weeds that would otherwise
spring up abundantly. 1t heads them off,
just as tobacco plant shading the ground
stops ettectually any growth beneath its
leaves. Finally as fodder it is indispensa-
BILE. Sheep prefer clover hay to the best of
timothy and athpr fine grasses. Dairymen
rank clover high and seed their land &C
cordingly. In fact many farmers here SOW
nothing else. But then there are acres and
acres of land that will not unassisted grow
clover plant two inches high. For such
gypsum is the resort, the natural food
We have only to come down with this dust
and then leave the rest to nature. The
common course here is to seed down liber
ally and tap-irosG with gypsum in the
spring. NOW once; the next year more top
dressing, and either stock lightly or NOW
again and plow under the after-growth.

CARE OF HORSES FEET.-The foot is
the most important part of hurse; when
that is out of order the horse is entirely
useless. At this period of the year a great
deal of care and attention may proftably
be turned to the feet of our horses Mud,
wet. s!ush, and filth of any kind allowed to
remain on a horses feet will certainly in
jure them, When horse Is brought in
from work the feet and legs should be
washed free from dirt and rubbed dry. The
hoof should be occasionally well tarred
with common pine tar. If any injury
occurs from talking" the cut should be
kept clean, and if it is at the junction of
the ho2f end the skin pains should be taken
to heal it UP at once, LOST tho moot may
become permanently injured as it grows
downward. If it is kept soft and pliable
there is little danger of this, but if it is
allowed to become dry and brittle bad

ing, thus consigning to oblivion for
ever, it is to be hoped, the narrow
bigot, whom even the Radical Chron-
icle, Of this city, said, speaking OF his
speech, "a very ungracious close to a
long career as Senator"
It is now rumored that in view OF
the present complexion of the House
the President does not care how soon
they go home, as it is thought that
the best plan of settling his darling
scheme, San Domingo, is to acquire
it by treaty, and as that plan will on
ly require the action OF the Senate
which, since the abstracism OF Schuri
and the backing down OF Sumner, a
to his speech, IS quite tractible; tn
will of Grant being looked upon a
law, nearly all fearing his unforgiv
ing hate when he is opposed.

ANARCHY in FRANCE.

The latest dispatches from France ln-
dictate the existence OF a deploraole
state of affairs in that unfortunate conn-
trv. The city of Paris is in the hands
of a revolutionary mob and the people
are at their mercy. The government
has been compelled to flee to some 9TH
ar norton of the country to secure lis
safety. Threats are openly made that
Theirs and the other members OF the
government would be murdered II cap
tured. Three of tie ablest Generals OF
the Empire, who We're charged WIN
the suppression of the riot have oee''
cantured and executed. A perfect
Reign of Terror exists in the unio''u-
nate capital of a once great country.
When France had to succumb to the
superior power of Germany, her EN-
ncror prisoner, she was left without
, Government and without any we'll
defined ideas of what kind of govern
ment she wanted. This riot Is the OUT
come of the first efforts of her people to
rrovide a government in the place OF
the one that has just passed away
The history of the country teaches US
that her tickle and mercurial people
cannot effect change of government
peaceably. There must be hl"odsheo
RI = more or less extent. AS the con-
5 dition of France was never worse, we
NAV. expect that her internal disorders
i will equal any that she has ever hther-
TO experienced. The Reign OF Terror
: of the old Revolution is in danger OF
( being repeated every moment. .
d IT would have been much betteral
) the victorious Germans, instead q
;, abandoning France to her fate, nat
u provided protectorate for her unit
) she could settle down on some perma
nent form of government. 1t is to n'
- hoped that Germany and England VII
a vet interfere to prevent any further de
+ graduation of a once noble people.
of course all this Democratic anarch.
h will vet end in some kind of despot
ism. Some strong arm will yet gras
q the reins of government and eAuac
+ some sort of order out of this Red he
f. publican chaos. Napoleon is hoverm
y around the border, watching his opp"i
" tunity to return to France and asset
t. his authority. Perhaps his speedy res
rs to,ation is the only cure for the ills IN
r. der which his late Empire is now SUI
he fering.
France is entitled to the sympathI'
of all enlightened nations in this IL
nd hepr of her trial. 1t is sad to see
e fine a people, and so great eonntr
he thus reduced to the depths OF humlll
nd ton and misery.
