A Creaking Hinge

A Creaking Hinge
Is dry and turns hard, until oil is applied,
after which it moves easily. When the
joints, or hinges, of the body are stiffened
and inflamed by rheumatism, they can
not be moved without causing the most
excruciating pains. Ayers Sarsaparilla,
by its action on the blood, relieves this
condition, and restores the joints to good
working order.
Ayers Sarsaparilla has effected, in our
city, many most remarkable cures, in
cases which baffled the efforts of the
most experienced physicians. Were it

Correspondence Country Gentlemen
Until within . few years. not one farmer in .
hundred In Southern Ohio sowed any other
variety Of clover than the common red, but for
some years past the mammoth or pea-vips clover
has been grown extensively, and within the last
three years the alsike has been sown To some
extent, and VIII, i believe, be sown largely in
the future. l have sown both these varieties,
and believe that there Is . legitimate place fo<
them 10 our farming. and propose to tell under
what circumstance / would advise farmers To
SOW them. I believe, when the main object OF
sowing clover is to increase the fertility OF the
coil, that the mammoth is the best variety to
sow. IL makes . much heavier growth, and
shades the land more perfectly than the com
mon red. aud furnishes. more haulm TO plow
down 1t is not so good for hay as Is that OF
cosrser growth. and more likely TO be damaged
by lodging: yet this can be said in ifs favor.
that it will give nearly double the quantity. and
ss il 10 cut nearly q month later, IL Is a better
season to cure IT. and l have had some OF tee
most profitable bay crops l ever made from this
variety Of c~lover-three tons Of cured bay TO the
acre. which fed out a. satisfactorily as any hay
/ ever had.
In a dry summer this will make a most salts.
factory crop, for it will get q start in the spring,
which shades the ground and protects the roots,
and IL will make a very heavy growth and still
stand mp, and can be cured out Perfectly. In
exceedingly wet seasons il will make q very
heavy growth and lodge. and then turn up and
maze . second growth and will make very poor
hay; and IL Is beat then to cut IL for seed. for
tho machine can be set to cut high and leave
. large amount OF the straw on the land to DO
plowed under. This clover seeds in the first
crop. and makes o heavier yield OF seed than
the common red. AS far as my observation
goes. / estimate that it will yield about one
fourth more, averaging four bushels OF eeed 60
the scre when the other averages three. and
l have known from five TO eight bushels grown
to the acre. This clover suits the system OF
farming here in the Miami valley VIII ere corn
and wheat are the great staples. for with our
corn-fodder and immense straw stacks we need
but little hay, and it 10 almost impossible for
the farmer who has a large corn crop to cult
vate, to spare the time in early June 10 cut
twenty to thirty acres of clover. and make it
into hay. Then q clover sod, if il can be plowed
early, makes the best preparation for wheat,
but il we leave the second crop to make seed, il
is usually too late to break the field for wheat
by the time the seed IS cured enough to thresh-
With the mammoth clover nothing needs TO be
done until after wheat harvest, when it can be
cut snd threshed early In August.

Wire Fences.
Iowa State Registe

Iowa state Register.
There is considerable damage done to STOCK,
and especially horses, by bsrhsd wire fences.
No matter how cruel the fence may be. it will
never be abandoned. Ii has come to stay.
Hence our study must be how to obvia;e its OBJ
jectionable features, rather than what to sub
stitute in its place. A ditch on each side. with
the aid Of an embankment under the fence, IL
we'll and effectually done, would prevent most Of
the injury to stock. After the posts are set q few
burrows could be plowed on each eide,
turning the dirt to the fence. Then with shovels
throw up the loose dirt Then plow deeper aud
throw up again. In this way the lower wire
can be omitted, which will pay for the work OF
ditching and banking. This ditch and embank-
ment will last for years. The sight of the ditch
and embsnkment will prevent stock, and espec.
tally horses from rushing heedlessly on the
fence Nor can they stand and reach over or
lear against the fence. II will be almost perfect
protection to the fence and to the stock. and
really cost nothing. Try it AID quit complain
ing.
