Seeding for Glover.

In seeding for clover on very sandy
soil it will be necessary to supply suf-
fcient humus in the form of decayed
vegetable matter or barn yard manure
for the clover to make catch. To estab-
lish good clover God on such soil may
be no easy matter and require time and
manure, but, when once obtained, it will
be well worth the cost. Whenever good
clover production has once been reached
the after improvement of the soil will be
comparatively easy, and may be pushed
with a rapidity commensurate with the
inclination and means of the owner.
A correspondent of the New Jersey
station found that on his sandy soil, when
clover was sown alone, weeds took pos
session of the ground at first, making the
small amount of clover secured by late
cutting of comparatively little value
By sowing millet and clover together, he
secured fodder which his stock consumed
as readily as baled hay, and not inferior
to that secured by others who seeded
without millet and secured little or no
benefit from the first cut because of
weeds.
A good crop of red clover, when cut
for hay. removes large quantity of nj
trogen from the land, but it nevertheless
leaves the surface soil richer in nitrogen
than it was before, made so from the res.
idue of roots and stubble left in the soil.
The seed may be sown in fall or spring,
depending upon local conditions and eli
mate; but, in the ma jority of cases, the
best results come from sowing in the
spring, and quite often on the late SHOWS.
In all cases it should Toe as evenly dis
tributed as possible, and on mellow. well
prepared soil. If sown in autumn it
should be done early, with the ground
wet or moist in order that it may get a
good start before winter. Plaster will
increase the growth remarkably if sown
broadcast the season following the seed
ing.

REST RESULTS WITH SWINE.
The Effects Of FootS--How to Feed for
Lean Pork.

The Effects of Foods--How to Feed for
Lean Pork.
Grass is as natural food for swine as
for any oth,r class of animals, though
this fact docs not appear to be duly ap-
preciated. This Importance of pasture
is emphasized by Mr.. F. ID. Curtis in
recent issue of American Agriculturist.
He says: The best results can be had
with breeding sows by turning them
into field where there is plenty of pas
tire. 1t is not advisable to allow them
to have pigs where other hogs run, al
though in a large range there is little
danger of the pigs being disturbed or In
iured when born. One thing Is sure:
there is no food which will make better
pigs or put the sows in better condition
for bearing young than grass.
Sows that destroy their pigs in the
spring will make good mothers in the
summer when fed on grass. In the
spring they were feverish and made
frenzied by their physical conditions;
while i'm the summer by the cooling and
succulent character of the grass they
were in perfect condition for the ordeal
of bearing young. Feeding vegetables
has similar effect, and when sows have
these regularly they are always sure to
do well. Fruits are also natural foods
for swine, and sows will do well if fed
nothing but apples. In the summer hogs
should always be on earth and given a
chance to root. When it is known that
all these cheap foods are so natural and
healthful for swine, it seems strange
that so many farmers persist in keeping
their hogs, the year round, on grain.
An acre of sweet corn, fed stalks and
all, will 90 long way towards fatten-
ing lot of hogs. Sorghum is also ex-
celent. Weeds are allowed to go to
seed. for extra work next year, which
would make excellent pork.
Here is a maxim: The cheapest foods
make the best pork. The reason is it is
the leanest. Lean pork then being the
best, we should try to make it. Con-
fnement in pens tends to increase the
fat. Exercise develops the muscles.
The muscular part is the best food. The
fat is largely waste. We make fat to
throw it away. People buy hams not
for the fat, but for the lean. When the
fat is wasted it makes the lean cost just
so much more. Reduce the fat and in
crease the lean.
Can this be done? Certainly; in this
way: Keep the pigs all their lives in the
pasture. Feed skim milk and bran.
Keep corn away from them. Give them
vegetables and apples with the bran.
When the bodies or frames are grown
give them oatmeal or rye ground entire,
mixed with bran, putting in twice as
much bran as rye. Keep up the vegetable
and apple diet and allow them during this
time to eat all the grass they will a
little corn may be fed towards the end.
Pork made in this way will have more
lean and will be tender and juicy.

How Old John Cured the Bakers.

Old John Ferris made snug sum
for himself by buying at low figure
from their Disguised owners all the
balky horses that he heard of that
were otherwise sound, and, when
cured, selling them at handsome
advance, This was his plan: He would
harness the horse, being careful that
he was well fed, the harness strong
and comfortable, the wagon well
creased, in short, that the horse
should have no reasonable ground
for complaint. Then he laid in sup
ply for a siege-a lunch, his Jews
paper and spectacles, his pipe, Win a
filing of tobacco, and a match, and
most important, stout crOwbar With
a ring in the top, and an ak. When
the horse decided he had gone far
enough, he tried every gentle meas
ure to persuade him otherwise Che
never struck him), but when these all
failed, he deliberately drove his crow
bar firmly in the ground and hitched
the horse TO it, then took his ease in
nap or "a newspaper. When hunger
and thirst began to assail the horse,
and visions of fat oats and cool flow
ing water trough crossed his mental
vision, he usually began to show a
restless desire to move on, but not so
with his owner. He had gotten used
TO the sport and desired to stay
longer. but when he thought the
proper time had arrived he pulled up
: axes and a.ted off, but at the first
sign of refractiveness in went the
crowbar again. Before the horse had

Lie In Enxtn.

Lie IN E>uIt3.
A man whose head is bullying with
mathematical problems has figured
out the disposition of every hour OF
the daily life of an average man, and
tells just how many hours man OF
30 years has devoted to lis toilet,
meals or newspaper. Let US assume, !"
said he, 'that the sleeping hours OF
an average man will number eight
daily. That is one third of his time,
so in fifty years your man will have
slept all told sixteen years and eight
months. The man who is shaved
daily at fifty years probably had his
face scraped not oftener than three
times per week at twenty-five years,
while during his eighteen years a ra-
zor never touched his face. Say that
the semi-centenarian has averaged two
shaves a week for fifty years, that will
give $500 scrapes in the half century.
At an average of fifteen minutes per
shave the time devoted to this one
small element of life will run up to
fifty-nine days and nine hours. If a
man should not shave in fifty years
and then attempt to make up his pro
portion all at once he would have to
Shave night and day for nearly two
months.
THE average man, who is not linn
tied to twenty minutes for dressing,
breakfast and catching his train, con-
sumes about thirty minutes in getting
inside his clothing in the morning.
Half an hour per day for fifty years
would amount to one year fifteen days
and five hours, so that if man should
dress himself at the start in life for the
whole fifty years he would pass two
weeks before his first birthday ami
versary, and this means working
twenty-four hours per day. a bath
should precede dressing, however, and
twenty minutes day for that purpose
would put man in the tub for eight
months, thirteen days and eleven hours
out of the fifty years. For other de-
mands of the morning toilet allow ten
minutes per day, or four months, five
days and twenty hours in half a CEN
fury. Why, just single minute
every day spent in hunting for a col.
lar button means twelve days and
fourteen hours in the course of fifty
years.
Half an hour for breakfast, forty
minutes for lunch and an hour for
dinner amount to five months, five
days and nine years of eating in fifty
hours of life. The man who lives away
up in the Twenty eighth ward and
spendsan hour of every day jogging to
and from business in horse car may
not realize it, but it is nevertheless
true that in thirty years one year,
three months, one day and six hours
of his time will go in that way.
When a man reckons his time as
worth fifty cents an hour it seems
rather rough to think that it takes
$1S250 worth every year to get to
business and back home again every
day."-Philadelphia Record

What Il Fog?

In an interesting letter to Science,
n A. Hazen, of Washington, gives
some interesting and valuable particu
lars respecting the properties and nat
are of fog He says that it is admitted
that fog is simply cloud composed Of
water dust or solid minute spheres Of
water from 1000 to 1.1,000 of an
inch in diameter Many have suppos-
ed that dust particle must be the nu-
cleus for each sphere, but an examina-
ton under the microscope of evapor
ated fog has proved that such is not
the case. Briefly stated, the cause Of
fog is as follows: Ii is essential that
there be no wind. The sky must be
clear. The air must be saturated or
nearly so. The formation of fog is a
purely mechanical process unaccom-
panied with heat. New York Herald.
