GRASS CULTIVATION.
Number of Experiments ut the I'm.
dian Lake Farm.

NumDer OF Experiments Mt the I'm.
dian Lake Farm.
Island Lake, Mimi, Aug. GA great
number OF important experiments in
grass cultivation are being conducted
on the state experimental farm here.
These Investigations are for the pur-
pose of finding out the various grasses
best suited for the climate and soil Of
Southwestern Minnesota. Supt. o. q.
Gregg says:
MANY men have considered that it
was impossible to grow clover success
lully In Lyon county. We have found
that 1t can be grown with great sue
cess, II given proper care and cultiva-
ton. One Of the recent methods Of
growing clover is to SOW it with the
drill. Prof. Sheppard Of Fargo has en-
perlmented in this line. His yield this
year was magnificent. He mixes grass
seed, one part of timothy and clover,
with four parts of salt, to give it bulk.
lie shuts his grain drill as close as
possible, and crosses the seeding al
ready done with wheat and oats. BY
this method he puts his grass seed fair
~ deep III the ground, and it gets a
good stand. The Asike is the clover
for low lands. 1t will thrive on ground
that is good for red top. 1t is not SUIT
able for high lands. The Mammoth
clover is heavier grower and bids
fair to surpass the red clover in West
ern Minnesota. Red clover is biennial.
1t drops seed the second year of it's
growth. If left on the ground and not
carried away 1t will reseed itself. We
have land here that has reseeded itself
for ten years. For sowing on uplands
l advise farmers to use the Mammoth
and red clover. Asike and timothy are
the finest forage grasses"

Ike, who waived examination on the

tured him first is false; that no one
ever saw him or approached him in
any way until he was arrested by Zero

The Failure for July $4,000, COO
Less Than Four Years Ago.
New York, Aug. S.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says:
-Four years ago, Aug. 5, 1898, the first
number of Dun's Review was issued,
with failures in the month amounting
to over $4,000, 600. while in the month
just closed failures have been only
$7,117,727, the smallest in any month
since 1892. Last month was the first
for four years of which the volume Of
the business reported by clearing
houses was larger than in the same
month of 1892, and the Geographic dis
patches from all parts Of the country
given this week show gratifying i'm
provement. This is partly due to a
large yield of wheat an dgood prices,
though other farm products are realiz-
ing good prices also.
New York, Aug. S.-Bradstreet's re-
view Of the stock market says: At no
time for several years has speculation
ben so active or displayed such decided
strength. Advances have been gen.
eral, and the most striking feature of

ing power thus supplied.
