OUR FARMERS.
TIME TO SOW CLOVER.

For some years past there has been
craze among farmers to SOW their
clover seed very early. A number of
good writer's have advocated this Gus
tom as being in the long run the best
practice. We are all familiar with the
arguments that are used by these
writer's in support Of their views. A
great many men can urge that exper-
fence will back up the practice.
Many of those, however, says a writ
er in Breeders Gazette who argue
for early clover seeding, make the
mistake of thinking that it is merely
question of time and season, for
getting that is in fact matter Of con-
dition instead. The fact is, one can
SOW clover successfully any time from
June to June if the proper conditions
could be secured. The seed of clover
is ripened generally during the sum-
mer; most of it is retained in the dri-
ed blossom throughout the remainder
of the season, and held up away from
the ground above the moisture. If,
as sometimes occurs, the autumn is
wet with beating rains, seed on clover
still remaining on the stalk upon
which it grew, will be found beate IL
down and much of it sprouted. The
writer has field of clover at the
present time which was seeded in just
that manner in the fall of 1896 and
promises we'll for the present year.
But the iCea I want to put forth is
this: 1t is rarely too late to SOW clover
if you can happen upon or marufac-
ture the proper conditions for success
full seeding. These conditi ons seem
to me to be, first, the perfect cover
ing of the seed. The freezing and
thawing of the late winter months
generally do this work in the best of
shape and without any effort on our
part. But while this is so, we must
not forget that there are many
chances to be taken when early SOW
ing is followed. Two years ago we
were all taught new experience
when almost the entire area seeded
to clover was killed by the late fros is

be understood as argaing early
sowing, for in the long run 1 believe
the best results are to be gained by
getting the seed into the ground as
soon as possible, but if this condition
mentioned, namely, the covering of
the seed, be carefully looked after
success will generally follow.
