Glover ard Oats.

When we desire to get good catch
Of clover in this section we like to SOW
oats with it as early in the spring as we
can work the soil, using about bushel
of seed oats to the acre if soil is strong,
and half bushel more if it is light soil.
This does not make the crop so heavy as
to shade the clover very much, and by
cutting the oats early, or when the grain
is soft and milky, we get fair crop of
very good hay, OF by cutting them as
green fodder for the cows, the clover
makes good stand and is not burned out
by the sun as it might be if it had been
densely shaded and the shading crop
taken away under the scorching July
sun. Sometimes on light sandy soils, if
the clover is sown alone, there will be
hot day or two in May when plants are
very small that they are burned out as
they would not be if shaded by cats, nor
the oats cover them. If the land has
been fall or winter plowed we would
SOW the oats broadcast and work them
we'll into the soil with a disc harrow set
to run about three inches deep, and I'M
less the land had been we'll MANFRED for
one or two years previously, we would
harrow in about 500 pounds per acre of
some good fertilizer at the same time.
After this was done SOW the clover seed,
ten Of Twelve POUNDS TO the acre, anu 20
over again with light harrow to smooth
the ground and slightly bury the seed.
Where grain drills are used it may be
better, and certainly would be less la
Dor, to SOW the oats in that way, but
the saving of labor does not repay the
expense of a seed drill unless there are
several acres to be worked. Several
nighbors might combine to own grain
drill if they SOW from five to ten acres
each. 1t may be thought that the oats
take the fertility and the moisture from
the soil, thus robbing the clover, but if
the oats are not sown there will probably
be 4 crop of weeks that will do quite as
much harm as the oats, and they will
not make as good hay. We have been
able to get a good crop of clover when
we managed in this way the same season
after the oats were taken off, and with
but few weeds among it.-American Cul-
tivator.

Over the Eastern States.

Four Inches OF Snow Fell in Washing
ton and Five in New YOrk---SeveraI
Vessels Wrecked.
The snow storm which swept over the
eastern states Tuesday came without
warning. There had been a slight dis
turbance over Tennessee, which moved
eastward, and developed into the present
storm over the North Carolina coast Mon
day night. 1; moved northeastwards rap
idly along the middle Atlantic and New
England coast to Maine. Four inches of
snow fell in Washington and the storm
was accompanied by high wind. In
New York city the fall of snow lasted
from about 4 o'clock in the morning until
noon, changing to fine sleet. Five
inches of snow fell in New York.
Reports from New England show that
the storm was general, but there was no
interference with traffic. In Boston the
snow melted quickly and the storm by
oclock had turned to rain. The chief dis
turbance was to shipping. The most Sc
rious disasters were reported from Ports
mouth, n. H., where the two-masted
schooner Robert Byron was wrecked, and
the crew were saved by the Jerry's Point
life saving crew, and at Rockport, Mass,
where the schooner Hattie Page, bound
for New York, was driven ashore and
wrecked. Her crew were savel by vol
unteer crew. The schooner Break O'Day
of Bath, Me, went ashore off Rockland,
Me-, and as her cargo of lime caught FIRE,
she is likely to be a total loss.
