A VALUABLE COAST PLANT.

2 Many of the farmers Of this count
are making large quantities of hay
every year from II plant which is con
monty called white clover here st
called, doubtless, fJr want of a better
name, and on account of its small
white flower and light color when
old. Bat it is certainly no Kin to the
real white clover, but altogether a
different plant. II is highly priced as
forage for stock, and is made with no
more expense OF trouble than crab
grass. 1t springs naturally from the
soil, and from one plant will spread
and increase annually like bermuda
grass and grows to perfection in our
sandy loan, being about as hard 10
starvc out aud as vigorous a growth
as the COW pea, still 1t is no trouble TO
as Is evidenced by the fact that the
farmers Of this county grow il for
hay in their corn fields, by allowing
it to grow after the corn is taken off.
But where the soil is not constantly
stirred it is master of the field, though
it requires good soil and cultivation
for a profitable growth.
We are indebted To our townsman,
Mr.. A. GOclzer, for the technical
name Of this plant, and something of
its value, possibilities of growth, etc.
He tells us that some years ago he
grew some of it on his place near
Grand Bay, Ala and was So pleased
with il that he had a bale of the hay
sent to Washington and analyzed.
lie bad misplaced the analysis, but
says its technical name is Richardson
aia Scdbrd, and that the analysis
showed it TO be about equal in nutri-
value to the red clover of the
West. lie says that one year he al
lowed it TO grow with his strawber-
rics after gathering the berries, on
about a quarter of an acre Of ground,
from which he made all the hay he
needed to winter 20 head of cattle and
/ head of horses. That it grew seven
high, "a cut three times, and
SO thick that an apple falling III
t could scarcely have reached the
We have a sample Of ii that
was handed us a few days ago that {
rev in a sweet potato patch here in
own, or land that has had no fcrtil- {
this year except cotton seed meal t
II the early spring used for Irish po- :
atoes, aud this sample is about four :
in length. 1t will be remember !
ii that this soil has no clay founda- /
ion and is considered poor. Il
From these statements it certainly |
10 us that there ought to be a !

When green. Besides it yields a very :
arge quantity of seed said to be very q

The vine is hollow and when cured c
'ecomes fiat aud pllablc. Hence it is '
Iot difficult to cure or keep, when p
managed. Judging from o
he experience of Mr.. Goclzcr it will Z
undoubtedly pay to cultivate it by the y

Mr.. Henry Wa;terson of the
Courier Journal says that the tariff
did not influence the election in
New York. The success Of Hill
and the entire Democratic ticket
there proves this. 1t was all due
to Mr.. Cleveland'S personal UNI
popularity. lie considers Mr.,
Cleveland a very admirable man.
He has loyalty, courage, integrity
devotion to duty, and rigid, self
reliant spirit, and a stern, unhag-
ging faith in truth.

A New Campaign Dodge.

One of the oldest novelties in cam
paign goods is a card with small por-
traits of Cleveland and Harrison on it,
says the New York Evening Sun. Some
are for Democrats and others for Repub-
IicanS. Underneath the portraits is a
picture of Uncle Sam with his feet on a
chair. He is placidly smoking cigar,
and printed instructions with the cards
tell you to touch a lighted match to the
end of the cigar and then guess which
of the presidential candidates will drop
out. You do so, and you are surprised
TO see a thin line of fire eat its way up
the card with the apparent intention
of destroying Mr.. Cleveland, but it sud-
denly veers off to the left and makes di-
rect for Mr.. Harrison. Suddenly another
surprise comes. The line of fire divides
at the edge of Mr.. Harrison's picture,
and two fires creep rapidly around it in
either direction and cut out the likeness
from the card as neatly as could be done
by pair of scissors. Thus Mr.. Harri-
son falls out. You can get cards from
which Mr.. Cleveland will fall.
There is another device which repre-
resents a man firing at target. The
narrow line of fire travels straight from
his revolver until it hits the bullseye,
when an eXpl oSion occurs.
