Glover for Hogs.

More and more is being said abouo
the value of clover for swine, and we
are glad to see it. In our boyhood days
clover was a standby for stock of all
kinds, and it was a good standby. 1t
was the chief support of the milch COW,
the food upon which the pigs grew,
and the hay and pasture for the horses.
In the West it has not won the place in
popular esteem that it deserves. In
some sections where it can be grown
with success it is still thought that it
will not grow. Within a year we have
been told that clover would not do
we'll in Minnesota, and yet some of the
most thrifty clover we ever saw we
found in Minnesota last summer, There
is no other grass grown of equal merit.
Pigs make splendid growth upon it,
and swine relish cut and steamed or
cooked clover hay greatly. Clover
makes growth. 1t makes muscle, and
that is what we want in hogs. The
time is now here when the man who
can give us the most eatable pork will
be benefactor, and when his benefac-
tion will pay. The production of more
lean, eatable meat in our hogs is what
we want.-National Stockman.
The Louisiana Democrat., 1889-04-10
Producing Potatoes.

The National Farmer reports a po-
tato. grower as saying that twelve
years ago he started out with the am
bitions of young farmer. He prac-
ticed general farming and did all the
work he could do. He soon found out
his mistake. Failing health and stiff
joints were the result of this mistake.
But failures often teach a better lesson
than success. He finally took Prof.
Roberts advice, and did more brain
work and less muscular labor. And
as q result concluded to make spe-
cialty of one line-potatoes. He buys
no manure, but plows under clover as
a fertilizer, and has no trouble to pre-
serve the fertility of his farm in that
way. He insists on the Importance OF
working the ground up loose and deep,
and planting in deep furrows. He OBJ
serves that the tubers grow on that
part of the stalk between the old seed
and where the stalk first breaks
through the ground. Hence the i'm
portance of deep planting to afford
room for young sets on the vines.
After planting, which he does with
the pIow, he harrcws the ground thor
oughly to keep down the weeds, and
after the potatoes are up he cultivates
with Planet Jr.
A plow between the rows cuts off the
roots, he thinks, and exposes them to
the sun and weather. OF course hoe
is never used in his potato field. He
also observed that the white grub at
tacks the crop every third year. To
avoid these ravages plant this third
year on stubble ground. He believes
that the fungus growth that causes rot
begins on the vines and works down
ward to the tuber. He was strength
ened in this belief by an experience
with frosted vines. The potatoes did
not rot where the vines had been kill.
| ed by frost, but in the same field
where the frost did not reach the tn.
bers did rot. He mixes one pound oi
Paris green with 100 Or $50 pounds Of
| plaster, as aa aseetieide top bugs. IA

THE USEFUL TELEPHONE

The Part 1T IL Destined to Play in the
Development of the Country.
II is certain that the telephone is to
play a much mere important part in
human affairs in the near future than
II le now doing, and the immense
utility to the general public years
hence is now only very imperfectly
comprehended by the most sanguine
man among us. In 1898 the telephone
will become public property. and the
only restrictions upon its utility after
that date will be those involved in the
apparatus for its use; and the more
general its employment the cheaper
will it's operations and benefits become.
For obvious reasons the telephone is
capable of meeting the wants OF the
people much better than the telegraph
is, especially in the sparsely settled
districts OF the country, and for short
distances, and it's adaptation to the ne
ccessities of the farmers will be appre-
ciated at once.
One OF the first innovations to bo
carried forward with the use of the
telephone is in connection with the
weather service which has already
been made to play a most important
and useful part in the shipping bust
ness, and which, like the telephone,
has usefulness for future generations
not dreamed of by those of the present
time The State of Iowa has already
made movement to establish State
weather service and make it and the
telephone subservient to the necessi-
ties Of the farming population. 1t is
proposed to establish a signal service
at each county seat, and from thence
extend daily information to the local
inhabitants by means of the telephone
or the telegraph, or both. Next to the
sailor, the farmer is more interested in
the weather than any body, especially
in harvest, and the benefit that would
be derived from daily knowledge of
this kind would be immense. A COM
petent State weather service, with sig.
nal stations at every county seat and
at all the principal cities, and "a COM
plete and cheap telephone connection
Herewith, would not only keep the
farmer advised Of the approach Of
storms, but post him on the state of
the markets and give him useful in
formation in regard to his business.
The time will come. and it is not far
distant, when the telephone will be
used as extensively in the country as
it is now in the large cities, and the
farmer will call the village doctor, or
