SEED.
What the Department Says About a New
fargled Style of Glover.

The North Carolina Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station has now on hand a small
| crop Of crimson clover seed in the Chatf,
which will be sent TO every farmer who
will make application TO the station and
pay freight charges on the seed. Ten
pounds will be sent, which is sufficient to
SOW one fifth Of an acre
Crimson clover (trifolium incarnatum)
is known under a variety of common
names-annual, German, scarlet and TIA
liam. This clover is easily grown, and
should come into quite general use. 1t
is an annual. and consequently must be
re-seeded for each crop, which makes it
important to grow seed at home. Seed
may be sown from July to October, but
the land should always be well prepared
for it, or, if not, it should be well shaded,
as under a growth of cOW-pea vines, or
in a corn or cotton crop, when the seed
should be sown when the crop is laid by.
Grown in this way it may be of great
service in enriching and holding the land
from washing. IT'S growth i made ia the
cool wet part Of the year, and it is ready
to be made into hay at a season when
planters are waiting for cotton to vege
tate for first working. This is often a
dry time, and the hay can be quickly and
easily cured. 1t may often be best to SOY
this clover with oats, rye or barley, and
cut all for hay in April or May,
This clover will thrive on land in mod
crate condition, but, like some other for
age plants, will pay best where given a
rich soil. The composition of crimson
clover hay shows it to be a highly nutri-
tious food. 1t is so rich that for any use
it may we'll be fed with some such fodder
as straw, meadow hay, or cotton seed
hulls. When fed for production of milk,
the addition of corn, Or corn oats, will
tend to add to the good qualities Of the
product. Address F. E. Emery, agricul.

The Atlantic Ocean.

The area of the Atlantic is about 3O,- O0O,0 900 square miles, less than half the area of the Pacific and between one sixth and one-seventh of the total sur face area of the world. It would form a circle 6,1S0 miles in diameter, which Is rather more than double the distance from Liverpool to New York.
 Its depth is much better known than that of the Pacific and averages more than 2,OO0 fathoms, probably about h. GOO feet, or about 2i miles. The height of Mont Blanc is about three miles.
 The cubic contents are therefore near ly 80, ,0O0, 900 cubic miles, so that the At lantic could be contained bodily in the Pacific nearly three times. The number of cubic feet is IF followed by r ci- phers, a number that would be ticked of by our million clocks in SIC, GOO years. Its weight is 325, 900 billion tons. and the number of gallons in 1t is 73 trillions. A sphere to hold the Atlantic would have to be 533t miles in diameter.-Long- mans Magazine

She Is Released From the Asylum at
 LOhgue POinte
 To-days New York Recorder publishes long article in regard to Mrs NJ. J. Daly's release from the asylum at Longue Pointe.
 After being shut up for more than month in the Longue Pointe Insane asylum Mrs NJ. J. Daily of Waterbury will again be n free woman tomorrow. Her release has been ordered by Judge Davidson.
 The principal point was in the certih- cate of insanity by which Mrs Daily was incarcerated in the asylum. This certiti- cate, under the statutes of Quebec. was absolutely illegal, as claimed by W. At water. the Montreal advocate. who was fighting for Mrs Daly's release.
 Judge Davidson agreed to this and was about to release the prisoner. when the asylum authorities asked for time to prove that she was insane. This was granted, but they were unable to prove anything of the kind for very apparent reasons.
 Dr Rorque who attended her in the private ward, himself testified that he thought Mrs Daily was sufficiently sane to be removed, if her relatives would take charge of her. Judge Davidson therefore ordered her release and she will be free to- morrow.
 The utmost efforts have been made to keep secret the names of the two doctors WHO signed LII" certlncatt or MfS DalN x insanity. Their names were not produced in court, and, in fact. Mir Mullane does not yet know on whose authority his sis ter was adjudged insane. Sister Madeline, lady superior of the Longe Pointe asy- lum, claimed that she had forgotten the names.
 Mir Daily was sick when reporter called him up by telephone. The person answer ing the telephone said that d telegram had been received stating that Mrs Daily would be relcased to-dnN.

The saloon keepers are consulting eminent legal authorities, with q view to making a contest. They held a meeting yesterday. but no definite plnn of action was agreed upon. The point being considered is that the ballots for license and no license were not of the same size and it is thought that the intention of the law iS that they shall be uniform. Another meeting will be held soon.
