BEANS FOR PROFIT.

In carrying out a system of rotation
beans can often be grown with profit.
One advantage with them is that they
occupy the ground but a short time, and
all the work necessary can be done with.
out hiring much extra help.
While beans will grow in almost any
kind of soil, yet to secure the best re.
suits a good soil, we'll prepared, is neces-
sary. They should not be planted until
all danger OF frost is past, as they do
better il they can make steady growth
from the time they are planted until they
are matured. Many do not plant until
late, but when this is done there is al
ways the risk of hot, dry weather blast
ing the crop, and in many cases better
yield could be obtained by earlier plant.
ing. The soil should be well plowed
and thoroughly narrowed. by prepar-
ing the soil properly before planting the
cultivation can be given earlier and
more thoroughly. Mark out the lows
three and half feet apart, running out
the furrows reason IDLY shallow, II the
planting is done in hills, drop three or
four beans every two feet. A better
yield, however, can generally be re
ceived by planting in drills four inches
apart; do not cover deep, two inches is
plenty. Cultivate often enough 10 keep
the weeds down aud the soil in good
tilth. Generally il will he necessary 10

cases one more working given at the

the cost Of the crop, will Increase the
yield aud quality.

CUTTING CLOVER EARLY.


This year of all others in the West the
farmers should cut their clover early. Be
sure to cut it before the seed has formed.
There is physical law in this that will
help the farmer If he is wise enough to
observe it. Glover is biennial-one of
those plants that commences to die when
once it has produced seed. Here Is the
point: By cutting before the seed forms
you can cut two crops in one season and
still keep the root alive. Al least it will
not die because its purpose has been full
filled. This year we shall need all the
hay we can get. Skillful management
of our clover meadows will give us n
large additional yield of hay and have
the roots ri. ht for the next season. That
wise farmer, the late Hiram Smith, once
showed us field of medium clover nine
years old, from which he had taken that
year fully three tons per acre in three
cuttings. But there is another great ad-
vantage in early cutting. The hay for
milk and butter purposes is worth double
that of the ordinary grade.
Now is the time, according TO Hoard's
Dairyman, which gives the foregoing
advice, to make a mistake that will oc-
cupy us whole year in mourning about.
Cut the clover before it seeds. Cut two
crops. Get more hay per acre. Get hay
worth twice as much as the ordinary
kind. Preserve your clover meadow for
next year. One great reason clover
meadows kill out in winter is because
they become exhausted in summer by
being allowed to stand until the seed has
formed before cutting. York

According to the Philadelphia Press,
the Mohammedans always, whether in
their own country or in one of adoption,
bury without coffin or casket of any
kind. During the time of the old Roman
empire the dead bodies of all except
suicides were burned. The Greeks some-
times buried their dead in the ground,
but more generally crematcd them in
imitation of the Romans. In India, up
till within the last few years, the wife,
either according to her wishes or other
wise, was cremated on the same funeral
pyre that converted her dead husbands
remains into ashes. When child dies
in Greenland the natives bury live dog
with it, the dog to be used by the child
as a guide to the other world. When
questioned in regard to this peculiar
superstition they will only answer: ga
dog can find his way anywhere. The
natives of Australia tie the hands of their
dead together and pull out their nails.
This is for fear that the corpse may
scratch it's way out of the grave and be-
come vampire. The primitive Russians
place certificate of character in the
dead persons hands.
