Mr.. w. w. Moore said he looked with
much favor on lime as promoter of all
grasses, but particularly clover. He
thought the aisike could be proftably
mixed with red clover but would not rec.
commend it alone.
Mr.. Balderston remarked he had no.
ticed that timothy when growing with
clover grew more luxuriantly than alone
but could not tell the cause.
Mr.. II. Coudon said his experience had
been different from most others as he had
no difficulty in getting stand of clover.
1t seemed to be almost a spontaneous
production and yet he had not lined it
for years.
Mr.. f. Mccullough said he had sown
his wheat Geld last spring with one third
alsike to two of the red clover and had a
fine stand of grass.
Mr.. Carson was of the opinion that
clover was the important grass for the
farmer, and that it was becoming more
appreciated, that be had shipped some
fine cured clover hay to Baltimore and
had realized the highest quotations for

The State Exposition.

The Maryland State Exposition to be
held at Pimlico from the 9th to the 14th
of this month is now an assured success
far beyond the fondest anticipations of
any of it's promoters. The entries of ex-
hibits represent every industry in the
State and every county. The manage
ment has succeeded in perfecting every
detail amusement and entertainment
promised by them at the start. They
have established fine and suitable depot
ton, where the farmers, the stock breed
ers, the dairymen, the poultry fanciers
and any others engaged in agriculture
pursuits have responded nobly and in
large number with handsome exhibits,
and every citizen of the Commonwealth
may we'll feel proud of his States pro-
ducts at Pimlico.

esneciallY to our young men in the coun-
of course, is the tournament to be held
under the electric lights on the evening
of Tuesday the 10th inst. Capt. Robert
Grain will deliver the charge to the
Knights, and Capt. j. Frank Supplee the
Coronation Address. A number have al
ready entered and it is hoped that every
county in the State will have at least one
Knight to uphold her chivalry. The
prizes offered to the successful Knights
are valuable and handsome silver tea sets
