Agriculture.


An analysis Of clover roots dug from ,
square rod Of rroupd was made at Cornell
University fev years ago, from which u
vas estimated thu, an acre al such roots
contsined nitrogen. potash. and phcspherie
acid worth sis,ss 81 market prices This
amour, is about equal 10 what is found 10
500 ponds OF high.srade ammonisied
phosphate. and according 10 the Published
opinion Of Prof Tobcrts. II Was mostly re-
covered from the sabsoil through The Aid Of
the clover. aud thus was made available
for the use Of ID. wheat crop that followed.
In relation 10 this msiter, correspondent
VI the County Geutlcmsn says.
A retired farmer who has made q small
fortune in dairy farming says that be cred.
its the clever plant with $1,000 Of bis &C
cuniu laiions His rule for seeding during
many years vas fourteen pounds Of clover
and fourteen pounds OF timothy to the acre
He used 10 the amount Of ten tons OF plas.
ter 10 yesr. No wonder that he was sue
eessiul. Another wealthy farmer, an er
celen, manager OF great experience, said
to me that whatever success be bad attain
ed 10 farming was to be attributed dirictly
to clover. II is singular fact that in the
immediate neigh borhood OF such intelli
gent. successful farmers may be found
those In great number who never use more
than two or three pounds Of clover seed 10
the acre. and who do not to this day sue
coed in curing clover hay 30 that their
cows will eat it with relish.
A peck OF clover aud peck OF timothy
sow otbescre will secure . good stand
on land in fair condition. OF course
much less quantity would do, II 1t all
grew, | ut with thin seeding weeds Of
various kinds sill fill the vacant space, |
and il flict q positive damage by their
worthless growth. III the large clover is
sown, il will not lose in value by over
ripeness as .tadily as the medium, hut il
is goo6 7 ac,ic to SOW one quart Of small
kind TO two Of large. as this will secure
q quick start Of after growth for pasture.
and will also keep the ground fully occu
pied by useful plants. An acre can be
heavily seeded ut az expense OF ~, and
be who tries to s-ye money by scrimping
IN clover aud timothy seed does not prac-
lice true economy.
This il a scientific Confederation of what
many careful observers believe to be true
hat the growing Of a clover crop does not
diminish the available plant food in the
,oil, therefore a clover sod is an excellent
for corn or potato crop.
Very few farmers have made that eaten.
live use of clover that the facts above
stated would warrant, and perhaps a still
ess number have compreheuded its great
,alne 10 agriculture. Its roots will pene-
rate the subsoil aud recover plant food
otherwise lost. When cut at the right
line and properly cured, it makes the best
,ay known for butter cows. The manure
rom COWS kept on clover, is of far NOR,
,alue than when timothy is fed.

Blood Will Tell.

| A late number OF the Rural New Yorkel
presents . discussion Of the question
whether breed or feed is the more impor.
cent la determining tho quality VI mill
yielded py a COW. The argument is in
strnctiye and epterts ming, but the ques-
ton admits Of 10 direct answer. The in
| fuence oil these two factors operates
through such different channels that com
parison is impossible. No well bred COW
can do her best work unless she ls a we'll
fed COW, and good feeding never accom-
plishes what it should unless accompanied
by good breeding. The better the COW thu
better it's pays to feed her well. GOOD
breeding alone and good feeding alone
avail very little. But good breeding in
connection with good feeding means IS
sured success. 1t il too late to deny The
maxim teat blood will tell. No man and
no animal comes into the world as an iso.
lated or independent creation. He is Q
result oil q product Of forces that have
been working for generations. He is the
embodiment OF ancestral traits. In him
resppear the personal peculiarities Of
many individuals. He may have the gait
OF one grsndparent, the weak lungs o
another, the reteptive memory OF . third.
He is bundle OF inheritances. He is es-
sentially, 10 warp and wool, in his force or
ieebleness. his 81 mpathies and antipsthies,
his altitudes, tendencies and possible
ties what his forefathers aud foremotbers
have made him. Now what We term "a
breed among animals is group Of stock
whose ancestors have been chosen for Ger
I ,in traits during so many generation that
the yonng are almost sore TO poseess these
particular qualities. We are sure that
setter pup will stand upon game bird, it
makes no difference what particular ances.
tor or ancestors he resembles. They oil
had that particular faculty developed. 30
q shorthorn will turn feed into beef pretty
certainly and q Guernsey will transform IL
into cream. simply becaus the animals OF
their breeds for generation after genera
ton have been developed for this purpose
or course individuals vary inside these
great divisions and among so-csllcd ma
tive" COWS may be individuals Of grea
merit But the principle that blood will
tell" Is one that 10 fame or stccLman can
ignore. A full blooded bull Of the breed
desired when crossed upon good cows vii
almost invariably get good calves. L e.
calves that excel in bis peculiar qualities
and will always improve herd. His lam
lily traits strengthened with strong inherit
lance make him prepotent in transmitting
them, and his offspring will be more like
" 10 take alter" him than after the dam
whose ancestry has been mixed or vaiia

Infinite space is something the human
mind cannot comprehend. It is unthink-
able, but the marvellous discoveries by
the Lick telescope help a little to expand
the mental vision. Now that the great
telescope has been thoroughly tested it
is time to plan one still larger, While
the Clarks are in the prime of life
the work should be accomplished. The
government Of the United States ought
to undertake the expense Of the great ex-
pertinent. The next glass should be at
least four feet in diameter. and five, il
glass disks Of that size can he secured.
The next generation may not b. able to
construct such a glass. We are conf
dent that the Clarks can do il. But
there are such things as lost arts. and the
art Of making exceptionally great tcle-
scope lenses can be lost. Rochester Dem.
