Bur" Glover.

Seeing so much written about grasses
for the south and their adaptability to
different seasons of the year, | cannot
refrain from saying some kind words for
"bur" clover. l say kind words because
l consider it to be the greatest benefactor
that the poor farmers of the south can
possibly get hold of. Any farmer can get
a few seed and plant one row in the gar
den and raise all the seed he will need to
SOW pasture for a COW and one horse.
Prepare land about middle of October and
SOW; the seed will remain in soil until
pleasant weather along in January when
they will come up and grow very rapidly,
giving an early pasture that cannot be ex-
celled by any other grass or clover.
But this is not its greatest value, for il
can be sown on the poorest of land and
will make it rich in two years by turning
it under 1t possesses all the qualities
that our speckled pea has and besides it
will reseed itself, furnishing the farmers
with the cheapest fertilizer that he can
possibly buy or make.
Here in our section it dies down in
Juno, furnishing the best early spring
pasture, which is health for the stock and
economy TO the owner.
Any farmer with one acre of this ad-
joining his horse lot can save one third Of
the corn that he would feed without it,
and he can replenish his stock of seed
every year at very small cost There is
nothing to do but gather them off the
ground, as they fall from the plants in
June and can be raked up with a hoe by
cutting away the tops. One man can
save enough seed TO plant one acre in
half an hour. II is the best
plant within my knowledge
to stop gully. To do
this get sticks out of heart pine, split in
small pieces, about one inch square three
feet long, drive in ground leaving a space
between each stick. Do this straight
across the washout, and throw in some
sod. Then SOW clover seed. The clover
comes up and furnishes seed to be carried
down by the rains to other places or
breaks, thus forming a sod and ultimately
making the land rich The best time to
do this is soon after a rain, as the hard
clay in these gullies are saturated with
water, and sticks can be driven in deep
enough to hold any size dam. /
want to see the day when every
farmer in the south will have this bur
clover in his field, and the Southern Farm
Journal on his center table. With these
two weapons he can battle with all the
trusts. IL is fact that during my work
in the ministry, the hons that l visit
are more cheerful with the farm papers
to adorn the table, giving buoyancy of in
tellect and elasticity of action.

but In the case Of a COW that has a small
opening leading from the large milk
pouch into the teat, whether the toat be
large or small, and whether IFS terminal
openings be large or small the uddcr can

Cows having fat udders usually belong
to this class, and require the exercise of q
great deal Of patience and skill in their
management in order to preserve their
usefulness. In the hands Of a careless
and unskillful mixer they soon become of
little practical dairy value
When the fault of hard milking is due
to a small opening in the terminal end Of
the teat, the remedy is artificial disten-
sion; but with correspondingly small
opening above no operation can remedy
since if the teat be emptied easily and
rapidly the udder above cannot respond

Apple Tree Borer.

Orchardists and gardeners should be
cautioned at this time of year against the
apple tree borer, known also as the round
headed borer, and distinguished by two
conspicuous white stripes along the back
Unlike the peach grub, which confines
itself to the bark, the apple borer In the
course of its three-years existence pene-
trates the wood. The old and successful
remedy was to scrape away the surface of
the bark and enter the hole with small
flexible wire or a small twig Careful
orchardists by close attention have sue
ceeded in clearing their trees. A later and
common remedy for excluding the borer
is to apply to the bark from the ground
upward coating of soft soap in which
washing soda has been mixed This re-
pels the insect and prevents their deposit-
ing their eggs. This work should be done
early in July, if it has not been done a
month sooner. The presence of the young
insect may be detected by the discolora-
ton of the bark If the outer surface be
scraped with a knife late in August or
early in September, exposing the white
bark, the young insects may be detected
and DESTROYED .-Country Gentleman.

MILKING Jerseys, by D. W. vovles.

Thorough milking, performed in the
light of full information in regard to the
anatomical construction of the udder and
the chemical constituents of the milk, is
an act Of the greatest importance to the
owners of Jersey cattle.
The art of milking consists in the re-
moval of all the milk in the udder at the
time of the act in the gehtlest possible
manner, and by rapid process, slow
milking being always bad milking.
When being MIXED the cow should be
in condition of absolute quietude; if ex-
cited by the act of stabling, she should be
allowed time TO quiet down.
No condition is so favorable to the
milking process as that feeling of safety
following full feed The udder should
be thoroughly cleansed. and the teat first
chosen gently squeezed on its tip end in
order to overcome the contraction of the
sphincter muscle and thus facilitate the
flow, after which the milk should be
drawn as rapidly as possible. There is a
feeling of relief when a distended udder
is being emptied to which cow responds.
ana to which she will continue her CON
sent TO the end of the act, if it be not too
long delayed, that is not only of valuable
assistance in the process, but without
which it cannot be perfectly complete
The first feat selected should be MIXED
perfectly clean before passing to another.
and so on until all are emptied, by which
time the first teat MIXED will be partly
refilled by the Second flow" when the
second round should be made in the same
order as the first; but in adopting this
system of milking, the same teat should
not be chosen at every milking for the
beginning, because the first quarter of the
udder emptied has the assistance of the
compression made by the three remaining
distended quarters, and the last one
MIXED has no assistance fran this source;
if, therefore the same teats be always
selected in the same order, the teat first
MIXED would develop that quarter of the
udder to increased capacity, while the
last quarter emptied or partly emptied
would correspondingly diminish in capac-
ity. This fact can be taken advantage of
in the development Of deficient quarters
by always emptying them first until tho
udder is balanced by their restoration.
Whether, in the act of milking, the
teat shall be caught high up or compress
sion made from its middle or lower half
only, will depend upon the nature and
construction of the udder and teats in
each respective case. If the teats are of
good size and have good openings leading
both into them and out, the cow can be
MIXED easily and rapidly by either plan;

Nitrogen for the Soil.

We have frequently called attention to
the fact that clover was an important
crop for bringing nitrogen to the soil.
Prof Warrington, a well-known agricul-
tural scientist of the Rothamsted, Eng
land, experiment station, in recent
article on the above subject. pointed out,
what is now pretty well known, that
soil derives its nitrogen in the fAst place
mainly from leguminous crops, such as
peas, beans, Ciovers, wild legumes, etc
Proceeding, however he stated a few
facts which are somewhat new to the
agricultural student of science He
reported the important discovery that
there are two forms of moss which
have the same power. Messrs.
SchlOesing and Laurent, two French
chemists, have been giving special atten-
ton to this subject in the last year They
have added quartz sand to a subsoil con
tanning very little nitrogen, and have
seeded these soils with mosses obtained
from other soils. The subsOil was seeded
with two varieties of moss and showed
no gain of nitrogen But quartz sand
seeded with a variety of alga, form of
seaweed, and the subsoil seeded with u
mixture Of this and another variety,
showed very considerable gain Of nitro
gen. This tends to explain why barren
sands and abandoned fields may become
fertile after prolonged exposure to air and
light, and explains the method Of nature
in restoring the waste places.

ing ANY farmer who has fed turnips al
all will probably testify TO this fact.
And we can assure our correspondent
that we know of nothing better 10 insure
a good flow of milk than mixture Of tur-
nips and cotton seed. boiled together.
There is no cheaper or better food that a
farmer or dairyman can feed to his cows
than this
There are other crops, however, besides
turnips, that a southern farmer can grow
for his milk cows that will afford succu-
lent food in the winter-that is from
November to April.
While we regard turnips as one OF "the
most available for the average farmer.
it is by no means the only one.
There are several crops he can grow
that will furnish all the succulent food
necessary There is "bur' clover: that
will grow on most any kind of soil and
any farmer who has a milk cow, who
grows 1t once in his life is likely to grow
it as long as he lives.
There are two ClOvers that we want to
see growing all over the south in the next
ten years and they are the bur and the
crimson clovers. 1t may be that the lat
ter will not grow on every kind of soil
that the bur viii suit but from what we
know of IL we believe il will grow on the
Either of the clovers sown from August
18th to October 1st should produce succu-
lent food without stint from November
18th to May 18th. Either of them will
thrive on as poor land as anything else
will, but of course no sane man will ex-
pect a very large crop from any very poor
land.
AS we have already remarked, the
farmer that once sows an acre, more or
less, of bur clover and treasts it as it
should be treated will never be without
some bur clover as long as he lives. 1t is
a superb crop and so is crimson clover
Like Lespediza and white aclover, both

Asparagus: How to Plant-When to
Plant,

Asparagus is one of the most delightful
of vegetables, and a dish of it well pre-
pared is fit for Epicurus, Lucpllus or any
other fastidious mortal and our climate
admits of its being grown with the high
est success and in the grea test perfection.
1t is not as easy a crop to grow as cab
bage or beets, or other annual plants, and
for this reason asparagus has not been so
extensively cultivated as il should have
been. The growing of asparagus involves
an amount of patience that no other crop
demands, where one attempts to grow il
from the seeds In this case it requires
three years to get the beds into such con-
dition as to produce a good crop of
asparagus IL is by no means
necessary, however, that one resort
to the tedious method of start
ing the beds from the seeds. Now
adays there are great many persons
who make business oil growing aspara-
gus plants for sale, and either one, two,
or three-year-old roots can be purchased
at very reasonable prices by any one who
desires to start a bed, small or large. As
a general thing one-yoar-old roots are the
most desirable for that purpose, but two
year-old can be used frequently to better
advantage than the younger ones. In
small way three-year-old roots are fire.
uuently used. BY the most careful prep
aration, pruning and setting out OF the
plants, they can be used to very good salts
faction. As a practice it is well to use
half and half of the one and two-year-
old roots.
One-ycar-old roots can be had for s. per
thousand, and less than this when several
thousand are purchashed. Two-year-old

We agree to this from the American
Cultivator: Our catalogues of fruits and
vegetables have too many varieties in
them. Seedsmen and dealers in plants
should hold convention and reduce the
lists. When the same thing appears
under a half-dozen names, adopt one and
let the others drop. When variety
proves unsatisfactory, drop it. 1t if
proves good only under certain conditions
of soil or cultivation, name them. Such
a method might cut down the profits of
some of them for few years, but farm
ers would be willing to pay little more
for seeds from one who sent out such a
list, and save some Of the money they pay
for so called novelties which are no bet
ter, and perhaps not as good as those
theY had before.
