Alsike Glover Seed.

Farmers who desire to SOW A lsike
seed next spring can be accommo-
dated by applying to A. L. Duyck.
inck & Co., who will keep the seed
in stock at their warehouse in Rising
Sun. Every farmer should sow AL
sike as one of the grasses in his
mixture. Though in fact the scien.
lists tell us that it is not proper to
call the clovers grasses. They be.
long to another family of plants. At
any rate it is good farming to sow
plenty of clover seed. Mix two
pounds of Alsike seed with the reg
ular-or a little less If you wish to
practice that kind of economy-of
common clover seed and SOW. Or
Alsike will do well when sown alone
with timothy, In that case four
pounds of the seed will be required
for a acre. The seed sower that Mr..
William Brown of the Sun sells is
the best machine out for sowing all
kinds of grass seed. No matter how
the wind blows, the machine will
distribute the seed just where it
ought to be placed and exact guam
tity you desire to the acre. $3.50
will pay for sower and So so will
purchase bushel of Alsike seed,
which is great abundance to SOW
10 acres if you use no other clover
seed with it, or if mixed with com.
mon clover bushel of the former
seed will answer well for 80 acres.
Alsike makes the best of hay and
ripens with timothy, and pasture for
butter cows superior in quality to all
other grass-there, we're calling it
grass again. 1t will not produce
such large quantity as the common
clover, but much better in quality.

Money nswereth all Things. .

"Money'Answereth all Things"
We devote the Farm Department
of the MIDLAND JOURNAL this week
to portion of Sen ator Stewards able
speech on money. II is not encour
aging to farmers to make money, or
what is more valuable intrinsically
than money, and have it all slip
through their fingers into the pockets
of artful money manipulators. In
order to prevent this in some meas.
ure it has become as essential for
them to study and learn something
about the laws which govern money
as it is to study the art and science
Of farming. Mr. Stewards speech
conveys great deal of valuable in.
formation on this important subject,
and we bespeake for it a careful per-
usal. 1t will require several num-
bers to present the speech in short
and readable instalments which will
be found very interesting as well as
highly instructive. The Senator's
speeches on the money que stion are
attracting a good deal of interest.

In the field at my home in Morgan county,

rest. Unfortunately, walked into clump
of poison oak, and in a few days my feet
were in terrible condition, and could not
put on shoe because of the soreness and
swelling. was treated as poison o; cases
usually are, and everything was healed up.
About the same time the following spring,
1872, my feet became sore again, as at first,
and every succeeding spring for FIVE years
brought back the same condition of the dis
ease, only each time it became more dis
tressing, because I began to think it was
lifetime trouble. Finally, I was induced to
try Swift's Specific. took six bottles, and
to-day am entirely well. My improvement
was gradual from the first, and no evidence
of the disease remains. I shall take pleas
ure in testifying as to its curative proper
ties. 1t is the greatest blood purifier in ex-
istence. Yours truly, ]. L. MORGAN.

and Isaac Collins, bass; has been en-,
gagged for the occsion and will render
several solos, duets, trios and quar-
tettes. This Quartette has appeared

ceptional vocal powers.
Miss Virginia Carver, pianist, will

her last appearance in public here
she has given concerts in Oxford,
West Grove, Delta and Stewards
town with flattering success. The
audience at Delta has several times
requested Miss Wilson to repeat the
entertainment at that place and she
has decided to give another concert

Public Roads and Road Law.

Our neighoors over the line are wrest-
ling with the old public enemy, roads
and road laws. We got rid of the diff.
ficulty in the simplest manner imagi-
nable. We placed the whole matter in
the hands of the County Commission
ers. The strong point in this reform
is you must elect good commissioners
or it won't work. We elected three OF
that kind and the law works like a
charm. The people have learned a
thing or two and propose to have none
other in future but officers of that
stripe.
