CLOVER.

The experience Of the farmers Of
Catawba is establishing the value Of
the clover crop and it's adaptation
to the soil and climate Of this Sec
ton. Volumes have been written
on the clover plant and it's great
value to the farmer. 1t seems to
combine many remarkable advant-
ages. On a stock farm it is indis-
penSable as a cheap food for rails
ing young animals or fattening old
ones. AS a fertilizer it is very val
liable and comes higher than any
other plant to solving the problem
which gives pause to modern chem
istry-the problem how to extract
from the atmosphere the invaluable
nitrogen which lies around us in an
ocean Of boundless %profusion, and
which yet refuses to respond to any
invitation, from any chemical sub.
stance to combine with it for the
use Of plants. Glover assimiates
nitrogen from the air and fixes it
in it's own substance, so that it can
be added to the soil by the mere
mechanical process of ploughlng
under the plant. AS nitrogen is the
expensive fertilizer, being the most
difficult to obtain, it is evident upon
mere theory that clover is Of a great
value as a fertilizer, and'the facts
more than sustain the theory.
Heretofore t has been the custom
Of the farmers Of this section to
send North for their seed or buy it
from dealers supplied from the
Northern States. This is now all
about to be changed. The Messrs.
Sigmon, Of this county, have a
clover huller which is in operation,
and the Messrs. Suttlemyre have
also a huller attachment to their
thresher, which they are successfully
operating. The seed from an average
acr Of clover at present prices Is
worth as much as the wheat from
an average acre Of that crop, WIN
this immense advantage in favor OF
the clover, that the first and valu-
able cutting of clover is saved for
feeding the stock Of the farm, anu
the seed allowed to mature on the
second crop, which possesses ll1tIe
value as a feed on account OF It's
salivating properties. :,
With these facts in view II -
pretty certain that the clover crop
is bound to receive attention from
the farmers of the Piedmont coul.

a crop which will fertilize the SOL,

Tariff and Wages,

Several OF the Democratic Congressman
who, under the lead of MIR. Randall, assist
ed the Republicans at the last session to
defeat the bill for the reduction OF the tar
if, have failed to secure a denomination.
This may very properly be construed as
an indication that the sentiment in favor
of tariff reduction is growing in strength.
There IS no doubt that four-fifths OF all
who act with the Democratic party favor
tariff reduction, and in the West very
large percentage Of Republicans is in
favor OF 1t.
A great many workingmen, who are Re-
pubhcans, sincerely believe that il it were
not for the present high protective tariff
there would be great reduction in their
wages. They associate their wages with
the tariff, and the protectionist orators
and journals tell them that high protec-
tive tariff Is their greatest blessing. They
do not take the trouble TO investigate the
subject for themselves. II they did their
faith In the benefits of protection might
be somewhat shaken.
A Philadelphia man, in communica-
ton TO the Record OF that city, presents
some facts bearing upon the subject OF
wages in connection with the tariff that
are well worth the consideration of work.
ingmen. The following are some of them
l. Wages have always been higher in
this country than in Europe or England,
tariff or no tariff. When the Henry Clay
tariff Of 1912 was repealed and replaced
! by the revenue tariff OF 1916 wages did not
decline, but, on the contrary, improved.
] ,. Wages are higher IN England now
under free trade regime than they were
when that nation had high protective
tariff Wages are also from 30 TO so per
cent. higher in free-trade England than
they are In high-tarif Germany and
| France.
3. Wages are one-third higher in New
South Wales than in Victoria, with more
than that difference 10 volume OF business

ItcannOt be denied that the Taylor
boys, ''Bob" and "Alf," who are the Dem
ocratic and Republican candidates Tor
the Governorship of Tennessee, are hay-
ing good time. They are doing some
hard work, but they get along so well to-
gether and are received everywhere
with such heartfelt expressions Of well
come that they can hardly help feeling
happy. Nowhere do they see frowning
faces or hear expressions of hostility.
They are making their canvass togeth-
er, and the friends of both parties are,
therefore, always present.
"Bob," however, is the more popular of
the two. He has a magnetism about him
that neither men nor women can resist.
In some of the rural districts of some
States 1t is the privilege of the preachers
only to kiss the pretty girls who come to
hear them preach. In this campaign in
Tennessee "Bob," it seems. is claiming
the kissing privilege.
At the town of Trenton a day or two
ago, where the two candidates had an an
pointment to speak, a large number OF
ladies gathered in the parlor of the hotel
and requested to see "Bob." The young
Democratic chieftain responded with
alacrity, knowing full well that although
women do not vote, they exercise consid-
cradle influence over those who do. He
made himself as agreeable to the
ladies in the parlor as he had to the men
in the barroom. His hearty way of shak.
ing hands and his GLIB tongue soon made
all the ladies his stanch supporters. One
girl, whose cheeks were red with the
crimson glow of modesty, and who il
thought to be the prettiest girl in Ten.
nessee, was too great a temptation for
"Bob." He kissed her and said $50 tell
your mother" she replied; ''You are the
first man who ever kissed me, and am
proud of it," Surely "BOb' is living in
clover, and Tennessee politics is present.

The Mumeries.

From the Boston Record.
When the two Aztec mummles were first
brought to Horticultural Hall they Law for
about week under the fruit tables Of the
Massachusetts horticultural Society at its
annual exhibition, and even after the arrival
of the people of the Aztec village to their
quarters in that hall it was thought best to
keep their proximity a secret to those people
and to the negro ployes at that place Tine
dav before the villagers arrived one OF the
colored men was sent upstairs in the twilight
by the superintendent of the building to Sc =
cure some shutters. The mummies-which
by the way are most repulsive, both bodies
having the appearance of having been
strangled-were taken out of their cases and
LAID IN one of the hunks, and our coIored
friend. whom we will call SANDY for short
happened to get good view of them,
All lie wanted, IN laCt, for with q cry OF
terror lie started down the steep stars and
missing his footing fell down q flight or two
There is no convincing him that the mummies
did not push him down the stairs, and when
surrounded by a throng OF sympathizng
friends, he was giving his superstItious opin-
ion OF dead folks in general and Atzec mum
MES in particular.
"De place fur dead folks" he said, sis under
dem heavy ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS to the
Franklin obelisk in the graveyard opposite
"Dey've lived dere life, what dey want to

"Dey'll Hne themselves buried ober dere one oh

THE Light of Other Bays
From the Connoisseur,

From the Co1BOiSSeWr.
When summer winds are fresh and high,
And wild reeds murmur in the brook,
| love amid the ferns to lie
And sun me in this quiet nook,
And think Of DAYS whose memory long
No shadowy dream of sadness mocks-
My thoughts are thoughts of love and song,
Of sunset ewes and garden walks.
Come back, o wild and breezy blue
That domed by boyhood's happy sky,
Come back, o youth time clouds, and view
! our shadows float still softly by;
For summers in those golden days
Held such beaker wide to drink
or fieeting joys, their wealth of praise
Is dearer than dare to think.
| meier have seen so sweet light
AS once did deck the lily's cup
No azure half so deep anu bright
Our garden blue bells garnered up;
The sweet pea by the trellis wall,
The fragrant spires OF mignonette,
The lads love overlapping all
l smell their priceless fragrance yeti
| think that never doomed the rose
So fair as in those days of old,
Nor ever BANKS of soft repOse
Have now the charms that once they held
And yet the garden sheds its rays,
Brightly as e'er twas wont to do
1t was tue light OF other days
That gave the flowers their glorious hue.

Wales has free trade, Victoria a protec-
tive tariff!
4. Wages are not as high in this coun-
try now as they were during the war, and
yet we have the same high tarih! wages
have steadily declined since the close or
the war and employment has become very
uncertain, Notwithstanding the tariff.
Where does the potency of the tariff come
in?
8. Coal and iron miners, who are es-
pecially protected by the tariff, do not get
as much wages as they did before the
present tariff was enacted. They get less
for digging those minerals than the tariff
on them amounts to. How does PRO
tection" benefit them?
6. The occupations that afford the best
remuneration are those not protected"
by the tariff, viz; bricklayers, plasterers,
| blacksmiths, etc.
7. If the tariff should be abolished to-
morrow, four millions of men called from
industrial pursuits and converted into an
army of wasteful consumers, and the
country flooded with an lrredeemable cur
rency, you would see wages go up, just as
they did during the last war.
3. In England and on the continent the
population averages $50 souls to the
square mile, while in this country the av
erage is but 14-just one-twentieth! Fill
our country up with Huns, Dagos and
other "pauper labor" to the density Of Eu-
rope-as Oliver 81 Co. and other clamorers
for protection are trying to do-and wages
will fall as low as they are in Europe, in
spite of any protective tariff.
II any wOrkingman doubts the correct
ness of the above he might satisfy him
self by little investigation. Secretary
Lamar, in great speech in the Senate q
few years ago, SAID that while at one
time protective tariff might have been
beneficial to our manufacturing indus
tries, 1t was not so now, and the indica
tions that his statement is correct are
too strong to be misunderstood.
