The best time for sowing clover seed
is matter of much Importance. as many
thousands of dollars are lost each year
by the failure of seed in catching, and if
the loss is owing in part to the fact of
sowing at a wrong time, or TO any other
cause which we may understand and
avoid, the knowledge of it would be the
means of saving great deal of money TO
farmers. Besides the direct loss in seed,
the failure in seeding disarrangcs the plan
Of rotation AMI compels another blowing
and continued cropping when it is not
desirable and oft entimes decidedly injuri-
Gus. In the course Of my farming have
seldom failed in having the clover seed
start well, and | have sown it at all
times in the spring from the middle of
March to as late as the 25th Of May.
When sowing carly it was usually on a
li.ht snow Qhough once | sowed on a
fresh fallen snow two feet deep, and it
started finely. but dry weather in sum-
mer killed pretty much all of iD, which
is very convenient, us we can he sure il
is spread evenly. The seed reaches the
ground when it is soft and wet, sinks
into it and is sure to start. But il il
starts too early it is caught, sometimes
later by frosts and killed, or Cmic -blcd
SO that il can not stand even drou;hs
Again-I have waited until dryish
spell occurs later in the sprin", and the
ground is full of li>surc|, and sown seed
then with good result. If, Il; this time,
a light harrow can be passed over the
field after the clover seed is sown, and
followed with a roller, it benefits both
the seed and the wheat. These remarks
apply TO seeding winter wheat. In seed
ing after oats and barley, there is seldom
trouble in having the clover start, cspec-
tally if it is sown utter the drill or har
row, before rain falls, and rolled.
The tug of war with the clover comes
later, when it has TO contend with the
growing grain on enc hand, and the
drouth on the other. Then the stronger
ard deeper rooted the young clover the
better it endurcs. For this reason | IA
vor carly sowing, on the snow, if posi-
bic, in seeding winter wheat, and prefer
| to run the risk of frost, rather than have
a feeble clover plant TO 90 into summer
with. Fields that have been top-drcssed
the autumn previous almost always take
clover well, and though | have never
tried it except with plaster, | have no
doubt that some fertilizer, as hen manure
| or nuano, would LARGELY ensure the clover
''catch," if sown in the spring. In
seeding with barley and oats, the grain
should be sown rather .sparingly than
otherwise. Barley consider Il far safer
crop than oats for seeding with clover

!SfdIf Some EujIU PO!0fOcs.

1t is a good plan TO start few early
potatoes under glass this month. 1t Is
an easy matter 10 raise enough for the
family III this way, getting Il good start
and then tran>planting as soon Il, the
land and weather ale suitable There j.
nothing very formidable about this. and
no expense for hot beds is required,
the sprouts i'll. SEQ how simple Il plan
may be made to do. Select n dry,warm
and sheltered place and put in bed of
h"r'o manure - foot and n huff deep in
the form of bed OF any size you pie I,c
Beat this manure down well with the
fork and the spade, and over it lay two
inches of loan on which lay your seed
If this consists of small potatoes, let them
be whole if large, it is rs we'll to cut
them. Then cover them with two inch
cs of loan.
1t is best 10 set up boards around the
edges OF the bed Just as is common in
making hot beds, and bank up the out
sides with manure and leaves to serve as
some additional protection. The pota-
toes should be put INTO tins bed about
the 10th of the month. They will sprout
and begin TO grow by the time the land
is ready to receive them in April. When
the time comes 10 set them out. put them
in ridges raised a little, say six inches, by
manure or litter, and in warm, sunny
place. They may need 4 little extra
care, but you will find that it will pay
If the sprouts are above ground before
the irosts are gone, throw some old hay
over them, or straw or scawccd, ut night, |
TO be removed in the morning. Now in
this way you can have ripe potatoes on
your table by the last of June, and it will
be great luxury for the family. 1t is
worth while TO try it and you will find
it very easy mattcr.-PlongLma.

MOTHERS STEAK Children
catch cross words quicker than parrots,
and it is Il much more mischicvous habit.
When mothers set the example, you will
scarcely hear Il pleasant word among the
children in their plays with each other.
Yet the discipline Of such a family is al
ways weak and irregular. The children
expect just so much scolding before they
do anything they are told, while in
many 4 home, where the low, firm tone
OF the mother or the decided look of her
steady eye is law, they never think Of
disobedience, either in or out of sight.
o mothers, it is worth great deal TO
cultivate that excellent thing in wo-
man. low, sweet voice. If you arc
ever so much tried by the mischievous or
wilful prank of the little ones, speak low.
1t will be great help to you TO even try
to be patient and cheerful, if you cannot
succeed. Anger makes you wretched,
and your children also. Impatient, an
cry tones never did the heart good, but
plenty of evil. Read what solomon
says of them, and remember he wrote
with an inspired pen. You cannot have
the excuse for them that they tighten
your burdens any; they make them only
ten times heavier. For your own as
well as for your childrcn's sake, learn to
speak low. They will remember that

and angry tone. Which legacy will you
leave to your children?

IDLE GIRLS. 1t Is apainiui spectacle
in families where the mother Is Tie

dressed, reclining at their case, with their
drawing, their music, their fancy
work, and their reading, b2gui!-

days and weeks; ana never dreaming OF
their responsibilities, but, as necessary
consequence Of neglect Of duty, growing
weary Of their useless lives, laying hold
of ncwly-inventcd stimuIamt 10 rouse
their drocping encrgics, and blaming
their fate when they dare not blame
their God for having placed t!cm where

Concord n. H., not long ago. 1t was
Sunday, and l naturally found myself
occupying seat in Congregational
church in the afternoon. The pastor
was absent, and a venerable Boston clcr
gyman was i'll the desk. He read from
