Rural CONVERSATIONS.

Some farmers seed clover Oh wheat
land when the 0 is on the ground.
Others arc doubtful if seeding SO early
is all advantage.
The best time to SOW grass seed is in
the spring as early as the soil can be
worked.
For pasture SOW several varieties OF
grasses.
Go slow with the new forage plant,
sacaline, until the experiment stations
have determined its value for this coun
try.
In many sections red top grows lux
uriantly in what are termed the slough
lands.
Sow alfalfa as early in the spring as
practicable without danger from frcez-
ing,
Common red clover, lucern and tall
oat grass may be so"n together for
meadow; all three are ready to cut about
the same time, and all three spring up
again quickly.

The News and Courier will pay 500
in gold to the two farmers or other per-
sons who shall raise the two heaviest
hogs in South Carolina during the year
1895. This amount will be divided into
two prizes. The prize for the biggest
hog will be $50 in gold and for the sec
ond biggest hog $50 in gold. A third
prize for the hog showing the largest
gain at the lowest cost will be a com-
plete set of the A~mericanized Encyclo-
pRdia Britannica, bound in morocco aud
consisting of ten volumes.
The only condition of the contest is
that every contestant must be a sub

soon thereafter as it is possible to COM
pare the returns and ascertain who have
raised the winning hogs. Contestants
will be required to send to The News

nesses and sworn to before the nearest
trial justice, giving the age, gross
weight and net weight of their hogs
and stating as nearly as possible the

SEEDING TO CLOVER.
helpful Hints TO Discourse ed Growers Who
Met With Failure Last Season.

Met With Failure Last Season.
We have not the slightest doubt but
that a great many farmers, especially in
the west, who began clover growing last
year arc greatly discouraged. They have
put out good money for seed, have SOW.
ed it generally according to their best
Judgment, have seen it start, do well,
give good promise Of the future and then
licken and die, and are therefore dis
rouraged. If wo knew just what the
rainfall would be next year, it would be
All easy matter to plan for the future,
but as we do not know the only thing
to do is to calculate Oh the average sea
son, says The New England Homestead,
authority for the following:
In tho west there was not an average
rainfall in 1884. 1t was n season of ex-
ceptional drought, and hence clover fail
ed where il had not failed for many
years. This furnishes, however, no req
son why farmers in any clover growing
country should give up even if they did
fail last year. The farmers in tho west gro
learning one thing, howover--via, that
the eastern habit of sowing Oh the sur.
face after narrowing, or at most cover
ing with the brush harrow, is not a safe
u to follow. The light and drier soils
Of the west demand "a deeper covering
for clover, and whilo some years ii may
fail, and while ia excessively wet years
or on exceptionally heavy soil deep Gov
ering may meet with failure, neverthe-
less tho safe thing to do in the west
when the ground is dry AT the time Of
sowing is to give it the SAINT covering
that is given spring wheat or oats. If,
however, the soil is wet, then a shall
lower covering should be given. OF this
the farmer should be the Judge.
Outside OF the clover growing Sec
lions, or where clover growing is in it,
experimental state, we suggest to the
1armer to try sowing clover without a
nurse crop. A nurse crop is never any
benefit, either in the clover growing
sections or Il of it. Tt is always MOI,
OF less of n hindrance, and hence when
the chances are against its success We
would say by all means give clover the
entire use of tho ground. We are salts
fed that in this way it can be grown
much farther west than farmers gener
ally imagine. There is a point, howev-
er. where it is a good deal better to ex
pertinent with alfalfa than with clover,
provided that the subsoil be not so i'm.
pervious as to prevent the passage OF
the water through it, either up or down.
Clover is so important a feature of tht
western farm, SO essential to tho resto
ration Of fertility or the conservation
OF it, that it should not be given up ex
oept where there is clear proof that i
will not succeed.

THE AUSTIN REGATTA.
Teemer Won the Singles s-Bubear and Barry Will Have to Row Against Teemer
 and Rogers.

Austin, Tex, Nov. 5.- The weather was cloudy but delightful today and the regatta races were witnessed by an i'm mense crowd. The water was a little choppy from the effects of south breeze, but the oarsmen were in fine condition.
 The days programme opened with a half-mile dash straightaway, single scull, for a purse of $100 open to all profes- sional scullers. The entries were Teem- er Bubear, Barry, Haines. J. Gaudaur. Peterson, Hanlan and Rogers. The start was evenly made and 1t was a pret- ty and interesting spurt with Teemer soon easily in the lead, which he kept to the finish with J. Gaudaur nearly boats length behind, followed by Bubear. Haines dropped out before the finish. Rogers fouled with a stake. costing him, he said, the race Time 3:02k.
 The second event was the trial heat, three miles with turn, double scull be- tween two English crews, the winner to row in the final contest against Teemer and Rogers for a purse of 5000 and the worlds championship. The entries were Bubear and Barry, Haines and Wingate. The race was very close for some dis tance, when Haines and Wingate pulled ahead and rounded the flag first. Bubear and Barry were close on their heels and on the downward course began to crawl up and soon were neck and neck. Bubear and Barry forged ahead, crossing the finish line about boats length ahead. Time, 19:34A.
 The third event was mile and half straightaway for a purse of $150 and the worlds championship between Miss Rosie Mosentheim of St. Louis and Miss Tillie Ashley of Hartford, Conn. Miss Mosentheim finished half boats length ahead. Time, 15:191s

THE MEN REFUSE TO STRIKE
Goodwin, the A. R. U Director, and Three 9th CTS Are Under Arrest for Malicious De-

Butte, Mont, Nov; 5.-Advices from Kalispel are to the effect that the strike ordered on the Great Northern last night by Roy M. Goodwin, the American Rail- way union director, is fiat failure, as the men refused to quit work, and Goodwin and three others are under arrest on the charge Of malicious destruction of prop erty The men had a preliminary hear ing this afternoon. The testimnoy was that Goodwin, with others, came to the round house at midnight. Goodwin mounted the engine which Reynolds was in charge and said:
 There is strike on." The engine was run into the house, the fires of the en- zines were drawn, the snow dozer was run on the turn table and thrown into the. pit. The men were held in $500 bond. There does not appear to be any possibil- ity of strike on the Montana Central, regardless of what may happen on the main line Messages received from Hay- re and Kalispel quote Chief Dispa tcher Taylor and Chief Dispatcher Rogers of the Montana and Kalispel divisions, re- spectively, as saying that not a man in their Jurisdiction refused to go to work this morning. The only trouble reported was the grounding of the company's and Western Union wires east and west of Pacific junction, which interfered with telegraphid communications for about four hours until the difficulty could be overcome.
