The way to get rid of Tramps is to draft them into the regular army. They are alto gether too numerous and are setting bad example to the rising generation by show ing that they can live without labor be- leve the tramps in this country are equal in number to the standing army of any nation in Europe. Tramps as 8 rule are healthy and able bodied men and with strict discipline. cleanness and good food, would make good soldiers. As long as we are obliged to support these fellows and the United States are asking for new re- cruits for the army the tramp should be forced into military service and the day will come when he and the people in gen eral will bless you for your actions and will sell you Washburn Crosby company Flour for s 95 if you give my man an empty barrel and hundred pounds of white Extra Sugar for s 9S.

Now that the crimson or scarlet
clover is growing so rapidly, and
will be turned under by the middle
of May, it will be an excellent plan
to SOW COW peas right on the clover
land after blowing, and in August
apply lime and SOW scarlet clover
again, to be turned under next
Spring. 1t will be total loss of
the use of the land for a year, but
it will make the land very rich, and
the gain will be more than if the
land should be used this season.
Try it on small plot as an expert
ment, or on field not wanted for a
crop.
