MAKING GLOVER PERENNIAL.



We see occasionally statements that
red clover is under some circumstances
I; perennial, or in other words that once
seeded it may live in tho ground for
years. This is not the old idea of clover,
which has always been recognized as a
biennial, starting into growth one year,
seeding the next and then dying Just as
annual plants do. Winter wheat and
rye are familiar examples Of this. Yet
IL has been found that many knOwG BIZ
cnuials, if prevented from seeding the
second year, can be continued in growth
to the third, or even possibly until the
fourth or fifth year. 1t is possible that
clover thus prevented from seeding tho
second year may live over until tho
third. We have seen many pieces toler'
nbiy we'll seeded with clover the third
year, and this under conditions which
indicated that part Of these clover plants
We're such us had lived over from the
previous season.
An iEtere> ting and to a certain extent

A COUNTRY HOME.
Plans of a House Which IL Comfortable,
Appropriate and Artistic.

The influences of city life have q tenden-
cy to contract ones ideas in building from
the fact that land is necessarily more ex-
pensive, and the natural result is to en-
deavor to secure the necessary accommo-
dations by building one story above an
other upon as small plot of ground as
possible. Daily walks along a crowded
street where the predominant lines In
architectural composition are vertical, I'M
doubtedly from the force of continual rope
tition, leave an impression not easily
shaken off, and this unconscious educa-
tion or acquired taste in architecture is
directly the cause of many unsiChtlv, badly
arranged and constructed suburban and
country dwellings,
