West Virginia freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1881-1886, 1885-12-23
Our Secretary's Notes.

In response to my letters for the
semi-annual reports, must con-
graduate the Grafton w. G. I. u,
on the promptnes5 with which the
Secretary, Mrs. B. F. Merchant re-
pended.
Not only that but she sent the
dues for % active members.
We were glad to get one of Mrs.
M, E. Fox's CHEEKY letters. | tell
her she is about the only worker
who ever thinks the Secretary needs
a word of encouragement.
She says they are few in number,
as the GOOD Templars' have
quite strong society in their
midst. She refers to the many
hindrances and discouragements
they have had and adds, "But we
are not going to give up; there is
too much at stake"
She also says II want to attend
some of the many Conventions next
year, if possible, and get my ideas
frightened up to powerful extent.
All we have in that way is what
we read. 1t does good too, but not
SO much as if we were there to hear
and see all in detail"
I'm sure we will be glad to well
come Mrs. Fox. [ fancy we need her
as much as she thinks she needs us.
FAITH UNDER DIFFICULTIES.
Raleigh, G. H. has not held
any meetings since last July, ow-
ing to the absence of their Presi-
dent Mrs. S. L. Nicholas. | have
a good notion to try and give ever
so many Unions a good scolding,
right over the shoulders of the one
at Raleigh G. H. Whenever the
President is away or sick, or pre-
vented from attending the meeting
the ladies do not meet. Must we
have taOo Presidents to a Union in
order to IMPRESS it on the minds of
the members that the promise was
made to the ''two or three gathered
together in my name?"
l didn't much wonder at the
Union at Raleigh G. H., feeling
they can't have a meeting while
their President is away, because l
fe.niocy; she is oneof our best workers.
She sim ply actt5 not be discouraged. /
She takes promise, just holds it
up before the Lord and aUaits tor her
answer-but she works while she
waits.
l don't think she will object to
my telling you some of the things
she has told me. Last July she
went to mining town in the
mountains of this State. She lives
two miles from the Post Office and I
they have to 90 down steep
mountain to reach it, so they get |
their mail not oftener than once a
week.
When she went there she began
her york "For God and Home and |
Native Land,''
l don't believe she ever lost an
to work. She wanted
to organize a W. G. T, U, and a !
Band of nope,
one tried to collect some money
to get the "Band Of Hope started,
and had two Temperance meetings
and took up two collections for
that purpose.
Now all you faint hearted ones
listen while l tell you how her
faith was rewarded. The first ev-
ing the collection was four cents
and the second evening 1t was mine
cents. Now 1 hardly think we have
very many women who would not
have decided that the Lord did not
favor the work and so would have
abandoned it.
My good friend is not made OF
that kind of stuff and the result is,
she has Band of Hope numbering
"a children.
She says "some of them are hard
to manage and yet we can't expect
more, from the fact that they had

Glover as a Fertilizer.

Correspondence Country Gentleman.
Some three years ago l purchased an acre OF
den for many years. and for dozen at least no
manure had been put on it, and. as a result, the
crops for the past few years had not been worth
gathering; in fact, they utterly refused to grow.
When it came into my hands, fall plowed it
and put on eight loads of manure. and in the
spring sowed it to red clover. In 1884 l cut two
loads of clover from it. and last spring scattered
sig two horse loads of stable manure over the
piece, and the second week in May powed it
and put it into corn. The result was one that L
could hardly credit. The corn grew very luxuri-
antly-nearly twelve feet in height for
the lot-and developed the grain very finely.
Last week this "old garden" was husked by itself,
the shocks giving from two to three bushels of
corn each, and obtained ninety six bushels of
ears. Whence came this fertility2 The last year
the Irish farmer had it, corn absolutely refused
to grow more than four feet high, and no grain.
Did the fourteen loads of manure account for
the rank growth of corn2 Without manure,
l am satisfied that no clover would have
grown, and with the amount of manure alone,
have serious doubts; but it led me to think
that If We would use the manure more as as a
promoter of clover growth, and then rely more
on clover a fertilizer for our soils, the solu-
ton of the problem would be nearer at hand,
and there would be far less chance for difference
of opinion respecting its merits
That ton of green clover has so near the
same properties as ton of stable manure, richer
in nitrogen and only slightly deficient in phos-
phoric acid, causes me to think that if we used
the manure more to stimulate clover growth,
that the latter, obtaining, as it does, so much
from the subsoil (and if wise men do not err,
some from the air and raiufall), we may at least
double the manural supplies of our farms, and
what is of great advantage in labor saving
point of view, grow. it exactly where need it
By such a course it would seem that with a fire.
quent rotation of crops. there would be little
likelihood of reducing the available fertility of
our soils. and by mbining the good effects of
these two manural supplies, we should give each
its true credit. and profit by them accordingly.
