White clover for Pasture.

It is one of the advantages Of rough,
rocky land that as it cannot often be
cultivated nor ever very thoroughly,
the surface soil is pretty sure to be
filled with white clover seed. It IS
said to be natural to such land, which
means that it has so long occupied the
soil that there is plenty of seed to grow
whenever it has fair chance. 1t is an
excellent pasture grass, as it's roots run
near the surface and quickly respond
even to light rains, which will not re-
vive other grasses. 1t is greatly helped
by dressing of gypsum. On long-cul-
tivated ground, especially where no
clover has been thickly seeded, there
will be little white clover visible. But
even there it is often ready when 1t
gets the chance.

Sweet Corn for Feeding.

There are good many farmers who
grow sweet corn for market who do not
care to grow any other kind, because
having only small places, if the two
kinds are grown, there will be more or,
less mixed grains in the ears. What
corn they cannot sell green they grind
and feed to stock The sweet corn dries,
down harder than will the corn whose
carbon is starch rather than sugar. It
is also much Lighter than the field corn
after its surplus Of water has dried out
of it. Sweet corn ground with the cob
makes a meal that cattle and horses
are very fond of when fed with cut
feed. But as it's weight is less than the
field corn meal, more must be fed to-
secure the same results. It is not more
nutritious than common corn meal, If
so much so. but it may be used some-
times to tempt the appetite Of an ami
NAL that has been cloyed and thus re-
store digestion to its normal activity.
