No matter how mismanaSed, clover

do the farmer who grows clover, is
making his farm better. What, then'
might not the result be, if the same
care were taken Of the clover field as
as Of other crops? 1t does not need
cultivatius the long, deep reaching
roots mellow and pnlverlzc the soil as
nothing else can. If the clover grows
thriftily the top acts as mulch seed
ing the ground and keeping it moist.
A crop Of two tons or more OF clover,
whether ploushel under or cut for
hay, can hardly fail to leave the soil
better than it was before, 1t should
be the farmers aim to grow the lar
gcst possible crops Of clover. A slight

pounds per acre in early spring often
produces wonderful results. But ii a

Comparison of Spring and Winter Wheat.

A correspondent of the Country Gentle
man recently took four bushels of the Claw
son wheat, new and popular winter variety
to mill, and reports the following result :
Assuming the weight of the four bushels to
have been two hundred and fifty-two pounds,
or sixty-three pounds per bushel, and de-
Quoting twenty-five and one-half pounds for
toll, he received back from the mill one hun
dred and fifty-nine pounds of fine flour and
sixty-three pounds of bran and middlngs,
half pounds.
just before receiving the paper contain
ing the above record we had sent to mill two
hundred and eighty-nine pounds of Lost
Nation Spring wheat, raised upon our own
land, and received back one hundred and
ninety-eight pounds of fine flour and sew
enty-eight and a half pounds of bran and
middlings, leaving waste, or loss, of twelve
and half pounds. We paid cash for the
grinding, so no toll was deducted. Making
allowance for the eight pounds more loss
and waste in grinding our wheat the pro-
portion of fine flour to total weight of grain
is almost exactly the same in both cases,
there being less than one pound variation.
And our flour is not inferior to the best st.
Louis or Minnesota brands, in color or
quality. Of course we are greatly pleased
with the Lost Nation wheat, and should be
glad to hear the experience of others in re-

cate, spicy, sub-acid flavor. Mr.. Andrews
reports the trees, young and old, as healthy
and hardy, and good bearers, though not
coming into bearing very young. The fruit
is moderately good keeper, being often
preserved in good condition until March.
The other apple we wish to speak Of was
shown at the Lyndonville grangers' fair, by
NJ. IIallett, of st. Johnsbury Centre, and is
known as the st. ,Johnsbury Sweet. Placed
alongside of Andrews Favorite, it is diff
cult to decide which is the most beautiful
to the eye. The color and markings of the
two are quite similar, though there is dill
ference of shade in both the yellow and the
red. But the st. Johnsbury Sweet is an
obate or hattened apple. 1t is very sym
metrca and q quantity of them together
make most attractive show In size they
run from medium to large. The flavor is
spicy sweet, which, with the delicate texture
of the flesh, makes this true dessert apple
though it is also of good quality for baking.
We know of no sweet apple superior to this
in beauty or quality, and the tree is remark
ably hardy.
We have neither scions nor trees Of these
apples, but mention them, as we mention
those we do happen to have, for the benefit
of the readers of this paper. If the parties
having trees for sale derive incidental ben
eft from the notice, very well; but that is
not our object, whether it concerns oursef
or others. We use the advertising columns
for our advertisements Gas we notice Mr..
Andrews does also), and in these columns
we try to give only trustworthy and moder-
ate estimates in regard to the objects of
notice. This we are glad to say is appre-
ciated by such men as Mr.. Cheever, editor of
the New England Farmer, who says, re.
ferring to our notices of Russian apples
DR.. lIoskins, though a grower of trees, is
an acknowledged authority upon fruit cul'
ture, and gives an exceedingly candid de.
scription of the character and real value OF
these Russians" And perhaps we may be
pardoned also lin consideration of the fact
that some uneasy souls have complained OF

we have for sale) for quoting the following

Changers Fairs.


The "Patrons of IIusbandry" have in
augurated new system of fairs, and have
been very successful in the two experiments
made in this state the present fall. The one
in Windsor county, September 10TH at
Weathersfeld, was on the grounds of the
Black River Valley Association, and the dis
play of horses, and in floral hall, exceeded
all previous fairs on these grounds. Aud
this in face of the fact that no trotting for
money was allowed. The show of farm
products was also remarkably good. The
orator of the day, Hon. ID. G. Chase, State
Master of the New Hampshire State Grange,
gave an interesting address on Labor and
Capital. He was followed by brief speeches
from Hon. j. h. Walker, Overseer of the
Vermont State Grange and president of the
association Ex-Governor Riyland Fletcher,
an enthusiastic granger; C.. Horace Hubbard
of Springfield, George futile of Reading,
and other prominent patrons
The other Patrons Fair was held at Lyn-
donvlle, October 4th, and was generally

tended, than the Caledonia county fair held
previously at st. Johnsbury. No money
premiums were offered, and no admission fee
charged. The expenses were amply provided
for by the money received for refreshment
stand permits and an entrance fee of twenty
five cents from each exhibitor. The awards
were in the form of diploma cards. This
simple method of holding fairs, making
them cheerful reunions of the farmers,
bringing samples of their live stock and
farm products together for friendly compar-
ison without rivalry, and meeting for social
recreation and enjoyment, and to hear the
questions of the day, or prominent agricul
tural topics discussed, seems to give the
most perfect satisfaction. The speaking at
Lyndonville consisted of an address upon
the Relations of Capital to Labor, by H. f
Jameson, ESQ.,, of Irasburgh, and short
talk upon orcharding in a cold cline, by the
agricultural editor of this paper. The at
tendance was estimated at between two anC
three thousand and the success was so com
plete that definite arrangements will be
made to continue this series of fairs on {
more thoroughly organized basis.

Two Desirable Apples.

Of apples and among them was a variety
which originated from seed upon the An
drews homestead, some seventy-fve years
ago. On this, Mr. Andrews, with justifiable
compIacency has bestowed the name of
" Andrews Fayorite." From specimens of
the fruit which we have examined and
tested, we are enabled to pronounce it an
apple not only of remarkable beauty, but of
xcellent favor 1t is more than medium
