trimmed In dark colors. which would bring into
prominence her natural advantages. whereas the

CRIMSON CLOVER.

I wish to call the attention of the
farmers of Guilford county to this new
green food called crimson clover, Ger
man clover or strawberry clover. 1t
has been known in North Carolina for
years, and it was occupying so much
space in the agricultural journals l
concluded to try it on my farm at
the battle ground, I hereby give my
experience with it:
|. l sowed one acre Oh thin land
without any fertilizer.
2. One acre with 200 pounds of acid
phosphate.
8. One-half acre with bag of bone
meal and good sprinkling of barn
yard manure.
4. One lot 1OOx13O feet upon which
put 90 carryall loads of barnyard
manure.
l sowed it all in August by itself, u.s.
ing about as much Of the seed as do
of common red clover. The winter
was unusually severe, the thermometer
going below zero several times. All
the clover stood the winter we'll.
No. l, on thin land, did no good
was only or 8 inches high. will let
it 20 to seed and turn it under in
June, and in August will turn it up
again and thus reseed it and apply
two sacks of guano and next year l
will have good crop. The stubble of
clover is better fertilizer than peas.
No. 2 is now one foot high on an aver
age and is in full bloom (May 12th,) }
and every bloom looks like a strawber-
ry; there are myriads of them and it
looks like flower garden. No. 8 is
16 to Is inches high-most luxuriant,
and its yield will be twice that of red
clover. No 4, manured from the
barnyard, is simply wonderful. ! be-
gan to use it the 18th day of April, be-
fore rye was ready for use, and have
fed two cows, one horse and four hogs
all they could eat of it. l never saw
such a yield of vegetation before.
On a small plot about the size OF No.
4 in town I have harvested nine carry
all loads of hay. This clover is annual
never produces but the one crop, and
then the stubble must be turned under
to enrich the land. 1t comes month
before red clover and sooner than rye,
and one crop on rich land is as much
as two of red clover. All farmers know
how hard it is to get early green food
for the horses and COWS. Here is the
very thing you want. Buy it once and
you will use always. Itnever slobbers
horses and everything eats it with
avidity. Itis the crop all farmers need
and hope next year to see beautiful
fields of it in every direction. 1t is the
most beautiful crop in the world.

an hour or two, and no bad results
have ever been noticed on account of
it. Cattle on the ranches frequently
come upon patches Of this grass where
they feed for perhaps half an hour,
and then fall asleep for an hour or
more, when they wake up and start
feeding again.
The programme is repeated perhaps
a dozen times, until thirst obiges them
to 20 to water. Whether, like the
poppy, the grass contains opium, or
whether its sleep producing property
is due to some other substance has not

PREVENTING ROUP.-If the poultry
house and yards are given thorough
saturation with some cheap disinfec-
tant about once month, it will he a
saving of labor in attempting to cure
sick hens, and some disinfectants are
so cheap there is nothing to prevent
their use. One pound Of copperas and
one pound of blue vitriol, dissolved in
10 gallons of hot water and 10 gallons
Of hot freshly made white wash added
to the first solution, will give 20 gal
Ions of mixture that may be applied
with a watering can or sprayer, and
if used in the poultry house on clear
dry days, will greatly aid in destroying
the germs of disease. If the weather
is cold and freezing, and the mixture
is applied, shut the doors and windows
for few hours, and place a small oil
stove on the floor, allowing a good
flame, putting the hens in another
place. Two hours before roosting
time remove the stove and open the
windows, first sprinkling the floor
with air-slacked lime.-The Poultry
Keeper.

A CURE FOR TIPPLING.-A man
prominent in the affairs of Dunkirk
yesterday related the following in
cident
"One day, two months after l had
signed the pledge, I had craving for
a drink of whisky so strong that l
could see nothing else but drinks around
me, and felt asif | must have at least
one drink. l told a friend of my state
of mind. He said: you need not
drink cun tell you Of a substitute that
will stop your discomfort. Get bowl
of ice water and raw potato, peel it
and cut down one end to size con-
venient to take in the mouth. Dip the
potato in the water and suck it every
time you think you must have the whis-
KY I did as he advised. took the
bowl of ice water and the potato and
placed them on a table at the head of
my bed and would dip the potato in the
water and place it to my lips every few
minutes until / went to sleep. Iawoke
free from any desire to drink whisky,
and have been free from it ever since.
That one treatment era Heated my
craving for whisky for all the time that
has since elapsed. Buffalo Courier.

ANOTHER FORTY ADDRESS.

The working committee of the Forty
met in Columbia last Thursday night
and issued the following:
To the White Voters of South Carolina:
The working committee constituted
by the authority Of the conference of
Reformers and Conservatives, which
met in Columbia on the 2Sth of March
last, commonly known as the COM
mittee of the Forty, in view of the
grave conditions still confronting the
people of this State, deem it proper
and expedient to make some recon-
mendalions in furtherance of the well
known objects and purposes of its or
ganiZation. We desire to call atten-
ton again to the cardinal principles
set forth in the platform adopted by
that convention namely, the main
tenance of white supremacy "by fair
and constitutional methods" and to
earnestly urge upon every patriotic
son of South Carolina, without regard
to political faction, the Importance in
this crisis of contributing everything
in his power to the attainment of that
end. To those who have labored for
reunited Democracy and for the
restoration of peace and unity among
the white people of the State, it is a
source of qualification that number
of counties have already taken such
action in regard to the election of dele
gates to the constitutional convention
as will obviate all friction among the
people of our race and will insure the
selection Of men whose undoubted
qualifications and lofty patriotism
eminently fit them for the important
duties they will be call upon to dis
charge.
We cannot appeal too strongly to
those counties which have not yet
acted in this matter to take Immediate
ly some steps that will place them in
line with this movement, and will
render it general throughout the State.
The practical method ofsolving the
problem is after all one that every
county must settle for itself. The
time for action is very short. The
crisis that confronts lis, it goes without
saying, is imminent. We believe the
white people of South Carolina fully
realize this, it is for them to act and
act now.

A WORD FOR APPLES.

DR.. G. R. Searles, of Brooklyn, n. Y,
thus discourses on the apple as medi-
cine: "The apple is such common
fruit that very few persons are famil-
lar with its remarkable efficacious
medical properties. Everybody ought
to know that the very best thing they
can do is to eat apples just before re-
firing for the night. Persons uninitia-
ted in the mysteries of the fruit are
liable to throw up their hands in hor-
ror at the visions of dyspepsia which
such suggestion may summon up,
but no harm can come to even deli
cate system by the eating of ripe and
juicy apples just before going to bed.
The apple is an excellent brain food
because it has more phosphoric acid in
easily digestible shape than any other
vegetable known. 1t excites the act
tion of the liver, promotes sound
and healthy sleep, and thorougly dis
infects the mouth. That is not all.
The apple agglutinates the surplus
acids of the stomach, helps the kid
ney secretion and prevents calculus
growths, it obviates indigestion and is
one of the best preventatives known of
diseases of the throat. Everybody
should be familiar with such know
ledge, and l hope you will disseminate
it. In addition, next to the orange
and the lemon, it is the best antidote
for the thirst and craving of the per-
son addicted to the alcohol or the
opium habit"
