Nevertheless those Democrats, those

Nevertheless those Democrats, those
workingmen, and those of any or all
classes who distrust or dislike an influx
in large masses of colored laboring peo-
pie from the South can see plainly the
cause of it, above pointed out; and the
cause suggests the remedy. Many wit
nesses, some before the Congressional
Committee and others from elsewhere,
have already uttered this warning-that
a Democratic victory in this years cleo
tions will certainly produce an enormous
exodus of colored people from the South
to the North. On the other hand, a
sweeping Republican victory will at
once arrest, if not extinguish, the eXo-
dus. The negroes are flying from Dem
ocratic misrue. If the elections of
1880 confirm and strengthen Democrat
ic misrule, the negroes will rise in mass
es and fly from the South. If the Re-
publicans elect President and Con-
gress, the negroes will feel revival of
hope, and cease to fly from the South.
Especially if the Republicans carry some
of the Southern States, so as to give
promise of a revival of Republican rule
in the South to even a moderate extent,
VI VI DlCu CutCh W 1JClllOCldllO nllSI
as should correct its worst abuses, then
the exodus will cease, and some of
those who have come North may re-
turn TO the South.
To all such as distrust or fear the
exodus we have simply this advice to
give: if you do not want the North
overrun by colored refugees from the
South, vote the Republican ticket, and
elect a Republican President and Con-
gress. If you do wish the exodus to
flow all over the North, vote the Demo-
cratic ticket and elect a Democratic
President and Congress, and you GER
tainly will see Southern refugees in
vading every Northern State in large
numbers. The way to check the ex-
odus is to secure the Southern negroes
Just Government where they are, and
National Government disposed to Sc
cure the common rights of all men.
The way to increase the exodus is to
encourage the Southern Democrats in
their misrule, and to deprive the ne
groes of all hope in the South, by
choosing the Confederate Democratic
party to rule the Nation. In this as in
other matters, the road to peace, and
safety, and quiet, is through justice and
equal rights to all men; while the road
to further disturbances and all the ills
which are dreaded is through the tri.
umph of the oppressors. These are the
plain and manifest lessons of the exc.
dus, which the voters of the country
should wisely heed and act upon.

her approach with a sort of affectionate

for hours in one of the riding-rooms,
especially if her sister, the Queen of
Naples, is present to accompany her,
and their only attendant is an old Irish

Value Of Red Clover.

VERY few plants produce as much or
as valuable food for stock as red clover.
1t makes excellent hay, although it is
more difficult to cure than the common
grasses. Hogs will not do well on
pasture. They will even eat quantities
of clover after it is cured. The cheapest
way to keep hogs during the summer is
to give them the run of a clover pasture
well supplied with water. Clover pro-
duces large amount of milk which has
a pleasant aroma. Sheep are very fond
of clover, either in the green or dried
state. Clover affords in this region eX-
cellent pasturage for all kinds of stock
late in the season. Many of the grasses
that produce much food in the early
part of the season afford very little after
the drouth that ordinarily prevails dur
ing August. Clover, however, takes a
"second start" and grows very rapidly
on the occasion of the first considerable
rainfall.
Most crops exhaust the fertility of the
soil very rapidly, but growing clover
tends to render land more productive.
No plant produced by farmers takes so
large proportion of its sustenance
from the atmosphere as clover. 1t ap-
propriates various gases, hurtful to man,
from the air, and supplies the places
they occupied withoxygen and perfume.
The roots of clover extend deep into
the ground, and bring to the surface
substances that the roots of other plants
do not reach. On these accounts clover
is the best crop to raise for plowing
under. The cheapest if not the quick
est way to render worn-out soils pro-
ductive is to raise crop of red clover
on them and to turn it under the second
year after sowing. A somewhat slight
dressing of barn-yard manure or COM
mercial fertilizers, followed by plaster
as a top dressing, will cause a luxuriant
growth of clover which contains nearly
all the elements of fertility.
In many parts of Europe, and in
some sections of this country, clover
seed is sown in the fall. But our climate
is not favorable to this practice. Unless
there are timely rains during the early
part of autumn, the plants make a
small growth before the approach OF
cold weather. In an open winter like
the present one they have no protection,
and the repeated freezing and thawing
of the soil causes the roots to be thrown
out and killed. Red clover seed should
be sown as early in the spring as the
soil is in condition to be stirred. Some
advocate sowing it on land prepared the
previous fall, and allow the frost and
rain to cover it. Others SOW it on late
snow, if there chances to be one. While
clover seed should be in the ground
very early in the spring there is little
gain in the matter of growth in sowing
it before the frost is out of the ground

Which Shall 1t Be, Cattle or Grain.

BOTH. A mixed husbandry is safest
from scarcity of meat and milk, and
plethora of corn and cotton. Many
Minnesota farmer has helped to feed
the East and England, while he has
been destitute of milk for his coffee, or
butter for his superabundant bread. 1t
has been repeatedly shown that those
countries which produce corn and cat
tie most largely, boast higher land
valuation than the great wheat coun-
tries. 1t is not only in Indiana and Illi-
nois, but in the new State of Iowa as
well where spring wheat has ever been
a speciality. Taking broad view of
the future requirements for meat and
bread, we see that it is the policy of all
nations (Great Britain alone excepted)
to produce their bread at home, They
dare not risk dependence in so vital n
matter. If bad harvest makes small
deficiency, it can probably be made
good; very abundant harvest may
give small surplus. Meat is
less bulky and win better bear
the expense of transportation; so
the use of meat by European nations
is increasing, and the price has steadily
increased during the past thirty years.
On the contrary, wheat, with Temporal
ry fluctuations, is no higher than in the
long ago. James Card says the cost of
bread in England was a farthing per
pound both in 1770 and 1873, while
meat advanced from three and one-half
to niHe pence between 1850 and 1873.
Tho raoant and ,,nnpaoadanfa1 forafo,,,
demand for wheat is the result, in part,
of a series of extraordinary crop failures
which will not permanently continue.
The enlarged demand for meat is in far
higher degree the result of causes more
permanent in their operation. The
outlook for meat is, therefore, better
than for grain. Yet both will be re-
quired, as population increases, in
rapidly enlarging quantities,-RHrGl
