Put Glover on Your Lands.

Au Ohio paper says that BY clovering,
hundreds Of farms that were about worth
less have been rescued from dilapidatioO
and ruin. II is an accepted truism that,
as long as "cloger viii catch, the farm can
soon be restored to paying fertility, and BY
a good rotation is even getting more pro
ductive and profitable; for after some
wears of such treatment the land viii bear
harder farming-that Is, two or three
crops may succeed good coat Of clover
before laying down to clover again.
Rough new land should be subdued by the
use of large clover. Nothing SO eaeetual-
" rots cut stumps, and kills weeds aud
sprouts, and prepares the land forthe pillow
and good paying crops. Wild, new lands
should always have it sown on the first
grain crop down. 1t saves vast amount
of labor, for in few years it so tames the
ground. and clears it Of enemies to the
plow, that it works like old ground, aud is
good for full crops. One great error is
often fallen into, and that is, following the
old tradition that bushel Of clover seed
will do for eight acres. That may have
been enough to clover land partially when
it was new, but whoever aims at getting
up his lands in a speedy and profitable
way, should sow bushel on four acres,
so that his land may be thoroughly shaded.

WINTER.

There's glory in the screaming blast,
A beauty in the frosted tree;
Amystery in the lake that's glassed
With ice. a.id awe upon the sea;
Enchantment on the far-of hills,
A music in the snowflake gale;
Beneath the ice, the ringing rills,
Sing many a song, tell many tale,
always KNEW scarce know why
But knew that superhuman power
Was in the snowdrift meath the sky,
As well as in the little flower.
knew it when first saw the snow
Lie like shroud upon the earth;
whenI felt the gentle south winds blow
And new born roses sprang to birth.
And I have learned to love the time
When nature wears its frosty crown;
The sleigh-bells with their merry chime,
Der hills and valleys, up and down.
like to hear the sehoolboy's shout,
The sparkle of the lass eye;
And mark their footsteps on the route
That leads beyond the winters sky.

MORE EGGS.

The great reason why we have no more
eggs in the winter is that the hens have
not more comfortable quarters nor requi-
site food. The hen is tender animal.
She is an exotic in this cold climate and
wants warm bedroom and comfortable
nursery. IF we compel her to sleep on a
fence or in tree and lay her eggs where
the snow can sift upon them and the frost
crack them she win lay very few. Under
such circumstances she has very little eu-
ergy in this direction, aud knows too much
to waste what little she has. Comfort is
the concomitant of egg production, and
food the great forerunner. In summer,
the hens, if allowed the free run of the
farm, can scratch for living and pick up
seeds, grubs and perfect insects enough to
supply all demands for the raw material
from which the eggs are manufactured.
In winter this supply fails, aud the eggs Of
course fail. An egg is essentially animal
food in fact, it contains the auimal-the
chick Hence 1t requires for its manu-
facture in winter some substitute for the
insects Which the hens eat in summer.
Comfortable quarters and mixed animal
and vegetable diet are therefore the great
secrets in egg production in winter. The
animal food is best furnished in the form
of animal meal This is made at our large
aba ttoirs in great quantities BY steaming
the bones and refuse parts Of the animal,
and then drying and grinding them. This
meal costs but little more than corn meal,
and quart Of it with three or four quarts
of cora meal and wheat bran viii furnish
hens just the raw material for making eggs.
We have tried it aud know. Some re-
commend adding to this mash little red
pepper. And this is good stimuhnts but
we have not found it uecessary.--Nat.
