Timothy GRASS and olover

Timothy and clover have been seeded
on the same land, as rule, ever since
they became known, but as they do not
mature at tho same time it is mistake
to grow them together If some other
grass can be substituted for the tim
othy to SOW with the clover. Orchard
grass blossoms at the same time as
clover, and, as it is grass that seldom
fails, grows rapidly and is relished by
stock, it should receive more consider
alton than is given it. 1t grows in tus.
socks, but that should be no objection,
as it yields well and is adopted to near
ly all soils.

Bryan's Patriotism.

William j. Bryan has just opened
the campaign in Nebraska at O'Neil
before 10000 enthusiastic people and
has proved himself prepared for any
emergency.
His speech was full of patriotism and
attempts of republicans to confuse him
utterly failed.
While Mr.. Bryan was speaking on
state issues, q republican in the au.
dience yelled;
"Why don't you go to Cuba?"
Quick as flash, and sharp as a pistol
shot came the answer:
II offered my services to q republican
president the day war was declared.
That offer was never accepted. 1 then
raised regiment of my own. When
the treaty of peace was signed resign
ed because believed this country was
in more danger than Cuba, and 1 came
home to fight republicans.
81 had five months of peace in the
army and have had constant fighting
since I came out"
Silver, Mr.. Bryan characterized as a
corpse" that would show remarkable
vitality in 1900, and amid tumultuous
applause he declared he would never
stop his effort in behalf of independent
bimetallism until the fate of this nation
were taken out of the hands OF London
bankers and restored to the American
people.
Referring to the republican claim of
prosperity as q justification of the gold
standard, Mr.. Bryan pointed out that
in six months succeeding Mr.. McKin-
ley's election more banks and business
houses failed than in the corresponding
period of the previous year.
"Things got so bad," he continued,
that many people really thought was
elected. Naughter.) According to
the ante election predictions of repub,
lican papers, who can doubt that for
six months 1 was president of the
United States"
The speaker then pointed out how a
wheat failure and the discovery of new
gold fields had decreased the supply of
grain and increased the volume of
money, and declared that any pros.
perity that ensued from these causes
was q sufficient vindication of the free
silver theories.
William j. Bryan has proved his pa
triotism by his deeds. If he did not
tight the SpaniaIds in Cuba, it was be-
cause President Mckinley feared to
give him the opportunity. He is now
engaged in serving his country with
the highest patriotism, and the people
OF the United States will reward him
with the presidency In Chicago

DAIRY AND CREAMERY
When Glover Crows Slowly

Should clover make slow growth it is
usually an indication that the soil lacks
potash or lime. An application of 9
ton of unleached wood ashes per acre
will be found serviceable, ss ssaes con-
tain both line and potash. In procur-
ing ashes, however, care must be exer.
cised, as they vary in potash according
to the wood from which they are pro-
duced, and there are many inferior
grades on the market, the leached ashes
being used to adulterste the unleached.
