The Winner ofshs Yale-Harvard Race
TO DO Ohallenxed-The Rigorous
Training Of the Crew Candidates
Begun.
The Atlanta Boat club of New York will
challenge the winner of the Harvard. Yale
race this year to an eight-oared race for from
ono to ten miles. In 1871 the Atlantas de-
fsated Yale and Harvard in six-oared shells,
the race with Yale being rowed on Lake
Saltonstall, and that with Harvard on the
Connecticut river above Springfield. If the At
lantas fail to fix race with Yale or Harvard
a challenge will be sent to Cornell. Inas-
much as the challenge sent by Cornell to
Yale and Harvard were refused, the chal-
lenge that will be sent by the Atlantas could
not be accepted. Tho faculties of both COLI
leges object to contests of that nature with
any but collegiate crews.
The book Of Yale humor, edited by 8. A.
York, will be given as favors at the germans
next week.
Several men met ct A. A. Tlney's room

The candidates for the crew are training
now az we'll as the athletic team. Those
who will play base ball will not begin till the
first Of February, for there is but one posi-
ton to be filled, and tho promenade next
week would break in upon the training, 60
that nothing is lost by waiting till next
month. After the promenade Newell go,
Ferris 81 and Brewster 81 will commence to
train for the crew. Captain ALLEN has now
about twenty-five candidates for seats in the
boat OF last years crew there are in the uni
versity g. o. Gill, Brewster 81, Rogers 81 S.,
Hartwel1 and Captain Allen. Gill will not
row this season and Hartwell declared q
short time ago that he would not row but If
he is needed in the boat he will undoubtedly
row. A new stroke oar must be broke in
this spring and this position will fall to one
of the three following men: Simms 80 S.,
Harrison 80 or Rogers '91 8. HeHelfnger is
trying for seat and will be q good man to
put in the waist Of the boat If he can master
the fine art Of handling an oar. He is at
present very awkard but Captain Allen and
attention to him and try hard to have him
grasp the principles Of rowing. Although
half of the boat must be SLED with new men
there is plenty Of material In college from
which to draw if only it can be brought to a
high state of perfection. Captain Allen is
not working the candidates very hard yet
and advises them to keep fat If they can so
that when the severe training of April, May

flesh than can be spared and be overturned.

FOREIGN NEWS.


Opening OF the Prussian Diet-Peace-
ful speech OF the Emperor.
BERLIN, Jan. 16.-The Prussian Diet was
opened to-day. The speech opening the ses.
sion said that it afforded the Emperor-K King
much Joy to announce that the foreign rela-
tions of Germany were COED in every quar-
ter. Tho speech was chiefly devoted to mat
ters Of internal reform, the income tax, the
requirement of private railways and the es-
tablishment of leasehold estates for small
farmers. The Emperor also expressed the
hope that lasting peace would be established
between the mine owners and their en-
p.oyes. The Emperor in his speech express
cd profound sorrow for the death OF Dow
sger Empress Augusta and paid high trib-
ute to her charity. The finances of Prussia,
the Emperor said, are in favorable condi-
ton, although the revenue for the next few
ical years is not expected to equal that of
1889. The expenses will not be decreased.
The matricular contributions for 1891 will be
largely increased. The present favorable
conditions do not free the government from
relieving the future by increasing the res
demption of the national debt. The charges
and salaries of.of6cials, especially of the lower
and middle ranks, and the expenses incurred
in the interest of art, science and agriculture,
will be increased.
The harveat of 1889 was deficient, but
owing to the imperial customs arrangements
regarding agriculture, Il is hoped the effects
of the shortage will be overcome without
permanent prejudice. The Emperor ex-
pressed the belief that the artisan class
would constantly become more satisfied with
their position. Good ground for such feel
ing on their part, he thought, could be found
in the operation of the system of working
mems insurance, in which the Emperor was
profoundly interested and also in the recent
in the rate of wages.
At the conclusion of the speech there were
loud ''hochs" under the lead of Count Won
Ratibor president of the Diet.

THE FARMING WORLD.
A GRAND FODDER PLANT.

Prof Guiley, of the Texas Experiment
Station, Gives His Views on Japan
Glover.
Japan clover, like red clover, has long
roots and gets larger amount of nutri-
tive matter from the soil than nearly all
other plants. Unlike red clover Japan
clover spreads over the poorest lands.
If not too closely pastured it improves
the soil and increases the pasturing ca
pacity 25 per cent. yearly. In this re-
spect 1t surpasses any other plant known
to me. On fertile land it will produce as
much food as any plant grown here eX-
cepting Bermuda grass. On rich lands
it will yield two to three tons of hay of
good quality per acre. For grazing and
as a maker of butter and milk it is
nearly equal to blue grass, and it sur
passes all other grazing plants on ordi-
nary upland or sandy soil for fattening
cattle, as it makes its growth from July
to November. 1t chokes out weeds and
inferior grasses, not excepting Bermuda
grass on certain lands.
When Japan clover has been started
on old hills that are too poor to pay for
cultivation it may be pastured, and
where cattle are fed on cottonseed n
part of the year the fertility of the soil
and its capacity for carrying stock in
creases more rapidly than under any
other treatment At the agricultural
college is a ten-acre field formerly COW
cred with broom sedge. 1t was planted
to corn in 1881, being fertilized with 2
cwt. of cottonseed meal per acre and fair
ly cultivated. AS but light crop was
yielded the land was sowed to red
clover. Japan clover, self sowed, made
a light growth where the clover failed
to catch. In 1884 the field was used
for pasture. In 1886, 10 to 25 head of
calves in the daytime and 80 to so cows
at night had their range here, and at no
time was the growth grazed or tramped
down too closely to furnish good feed.
In another field 500 acres of similar
land had been turned out because too
poor to cultivate. Much of it was hilly
and some was bottom land covered with
coarse grass, bushes and weeds. 1t
would have carried possibly 100 head of
cattle. The brush was cut and 100 head
of cattle placed on it in 1884, so acres
being fenced off for cultivation. The
following year the number of cattle was
doubled and another 50-acre field fenced
off. The following year 200 to 275 head
of stock pastured this land and still
could not consume more than two-thirds
of the growth. Japan clover is an an
uual. Itsprouts after the spring frosts are
over, grows fast on good land to 211 feet
high. 1t blooms late in August or Sep
tember and ripens it's seed. Its roots
extend IL to . feet or more deep and
fill the soil. 1t grows during wet sea-
sons with greater rapidity and doesn't
burn during long hot spells. 1t thrives
on all soils excepting black, waxy bot
tom lands, cold white soils, and where
the lime rock crops out.-Farm and

FARM OPERATIONS.
Some Practical Hints on Timely
Topics.


Topics.
Good farming is made up OF several
operations, all of which working to-
gether make successful whole. Among
some of these are draining, subsoiling,
good plowing, pulverizing the soil, rota-
tion of crops, thorough cultivation, pro-
viding shelter, care of manure and con-
troll of fields by fencing. Take, for in
stance, the practice of subsoiling. In a
gravelly or porous subsoil it is not
aseded, and the owner obtains no bene-
6t from it. Performed in wet subsoil,
which is adhesive or clayey in its COM
position, it may render it more compact
by pressing it together like mortar, and
may harden it instead of rendering it
looser and lighter as intended. Or, the
subsoiling may be incomplete and in
efficient by tho narrow furrow which it
makes.
The common plow which precedes it,
cuts a furrow foot wide, and the sub
soil plow, as often constructed, hardly
six inches; and the result is that the
subsoil is only broken into interrupted
burrows with the hard unbroken earth
between them, as represented by tho
cross-section, Fig. 1, where the upper
and dotted portion is the mellow or
broken soil, and the darker part below
the unbroken earth. A remedy for this
defective work, is to cut the common
plow burrows only half foot wide,
which will break up all the hard ridges,
and reduce the whole bed of mellow soil
to state of fine pulverization.
Fig. represents a cross-section cf tho
previous furrow of the common plow,
with the mass of broken earth in it's
bottom which has been lifted in SUBJ
soiling, and before the next furrow-
slice has been thrown upon it. This
