\ The Michigan Experiment Station has
issued the following bulletin on AlsIke
clover:
From present indications the amount of
Alsike clover sown in Michigan the coming
spring will be very large. This species Is
receiving attention mainly on account OF
the recent failures of red clover, owing to
dry weather and the attacks of insects. par
ticularlv the imported clover root b0rer.
For most purposes Alsike Is inferior to
either early or mammoth clover and 1t has
not become generally popular at the East
and In England where it has long been
known. 1t does not yield so much either
OF hay or pasture, as those kinds, and will
not stand drouth as well. 1t is, however,
more hardy against cold than other clov-rs,
and is especially adapted to low or heavy
lands where red clover winter kills. When
restricted to such locations it has given gen
eral salts action, but much disappointment
has resulted in dry seasons from sowing it
on sandy uplands. Alsike serves we'll on
low land to mix with timothy, and such
mixture is excellent for horses, since Alsike
hay, II properly cured, is brighter and
fTeer from dust than that of the ordinary
clovers. On heavy or uneven soil, little
Alsike seed may well be mixed with that of
red clover to improve the stand. The seed |
being very small, not more than half the |
usual quantity is required per acre.
At present Alsike is profitable crop to |
grow for seed. 1t yields more seed per acre
than common red clover, and will generally
produce crop of seed when that of red |
clover fails on account of the root. borer. 1t |
is able to do this, not by reason of exemp-
ton from the attack of the borer, but be- |
cause of Its seeding ON the FIRST crop, before |
the insects have had time to destroy the |
plants. Alsike shells very easily when |
ripe. and should be cut for seed us soon as |
a majority of tn. heads have begun TO turn
brown. In most cases sufficient seed will
shell out to reseed the field spontaneously. |
Alsike straw, after the seed is threshed,
makes good fodder.

The New York A ivertiser expresses its
opinion of the pension methods Of the pres
emit democratic administration in the follow
ing terse manner:
The case Of Gen. William Shakespeare, Of
Kalamazoo, Mich, Is an example of the
Injustice of which the Cleveland administra-
ton is capable in dealing with the brave
men who went to the front when Mr.. Cleve-
land remained ut home. Gen. Shakespeare
was severely wounded while fighting for
the union, and being totally disabled, in the
ordinary Gaming OF that term, he received
a pension OF S72 month. lie recently made
a speech at grand army meeting in which
he denounced the harsh and hostile treat
ment of the soldiers under the Cleveland
regime. Soon after Gen. Shakespeare had
uttered these sentiments his peDsi' va
reduced to $50 a month. The Cleveland
pension bureau Is now try ing to explain that
the reduction had no relation &c the speech
Th .1view Is not likely to be accepted by the
public, who understand from the observa-
ton and experience of the past two years the
animosity on the part Of Mr.. Cleveland and
his official reiaintrs against all who took
worthy share In saving the life of the
republic.
II the Cleveland misgovernment thinks II
can intimidate the soldiers into silence as
IN their owl and the nations wrongs by
holding for, a menace OF pension reduction
or deprivations, the fact only shows tha'
Messrs. Cleveland and company do not
understand the American character. The

In recent speech before the National
convention of manufacturers Gov. Mckinley
in referring to the future said:
I am sure there has been no decadence in
either enterprise or ability among the active
business men OF the country. Their purse
and pluck and perseverance, integrity and
skill are still here and will assert themselves
In future Industrial triumphs. For are W,
not to regain the ground we have lost In the
last two years? This is one of the subjects,
doubtless. that will engage your attention
during the deliberations of your convention.
For myself, believe we will re0ccupy the
field temporarily lost to us, and 60 ont to
the peaceful conquest of new and greater
fields for trade and manufactures. The
American people have no idea of surrender
ing or resting upon past achievements. We
propose to do our own work at home and
widen our fields of production. For exam
pie, why should we not produce our own
sugar? Are we less enterprising than Ger
many? This great country can not be kept
permanently In state of relapse. 1t is too
great too resOurceful, and its people too
enterprising and progressive tn permit any
reverse long to retard its progress. The
recovery will come and when 1t does we
will be steadier and will better know how
TO avoid exposure hereafter and keep the
great interests of the country robust and
healthy. We want our markets for our
manufactures and agricultural products
We want a foreign market for our surplus
products, which will not surrender our
markets and which will not degrade our
labor TO hold our markets. We want rec.
iprocity which will give us foreign markets
for our surplus products, and In turn that
will open our markets to foreigners for those
products which they manufacture and we
do not.

70 sit Geese average about forty-fve
eggs in year, but occasionally run up
TO sixty, or even seventy. Breeding
geese should be kept rather thin in
flesh and have a free grass range.
Newly Matched goslings do not require
food for the first twenty-four hours.
They should be fed ON hard boiled
eggs, chopped fine, stale bread soaked
in milk, scalded meal, boiled potatoes,
etc, and kept away FROM the water for
the first fortnight and housed ia n dry
place until strong enough 20 run about
vel.
Geese require grass as much as cat
tie and should have It in abundance.
They also feather out more quickly
when permitted to run on green pasture
and have plenty of water. Under these
conditions they should produce good
crop of feathers every ten weeks. They
should not be plucked while laying. as
& Is impossible for them TO moult
artificially and produce strong eggs at
the same time. II the feathers are
ripe they will come easily and are dry
ut the quill end. II soft and bloody,
they must be left for some time
longer.
Geese usually sell best at the Christ
mas holidays, and not at Thanxsgiv-
ing, as many suppose. The demand
for them Is greater In the colder
weather. The Irish and Germans are
the largest consumers of geese in this
country. Before marketing geese
must be fattened. This process will
occupy from two to three weeks. They
should be put in n darkened room,
with sufficient light for them to see TO
eat, and be given ali the oats and corn
meal they can consume. They must
not be separated like fowls, ms they are
very sociable and pine away II kept in
solitude. AS soon as the desire for
food slaclxens, they should be killed,
rs they are as fat as they viii get and
will lose flesh instead of gaining it,
