Shamrock II is Already Badly
Disabled.

New YoRK, Dec. 2--Work will be be-
gun today on house over Sir Thomas
Lipton's yacht Shamrock II, where she
lies hauled up high and dry in the Erie
Basin The hauling mp Of the Sham
rock II was accomplished successfully
on Saturday. However, it was discov.
cred that the hull had settled percept
IDLY on the starboard side near the stays !
1t is believed that the damage probably
was sustained in the severe squsll which
struck the boat one afternoon in the
Horse Shoe week or so before the
races. The belief now ,is generally en-
tertained among those who have ex-
amined Shamrock III that had an at
tempt been made to take her home this
all che never would have crossed the
Atlantic without laundering.
Many Of the braces running along the
bilges to the deck are found to be badly
bent and the bronze plates also are cor
roded to such al extent as to seriously
impair the seaworthiDess OF the boat.

Pointer For Goat Hcrders.

South Africa was the chief source OF

now stated that the Boer war has re.

nearly destroy it altogether. AS there

with our present knowledge Of the
benefits derived from the clover crop
1t Is difficult to see how an ordinary
farmer can successfully carry on farm
ing for long series of years without
growing clover. He needs clover to
enable him 20 maintain the fertility of
the soil, and he needs It also for all
kinds of stock, for there are certain
elements I'm 1t that are absolutely nee
essary to the growth of the young ami
NAL; also for the maintenance of the
mature animal and the production of
milk, butter and cheese, says n Wis
consn correspondent of Prairie Farm
er. Ii has been proved that clover hay,
well saved. is the best feed and the
most valuable crop that can be grown
on the farm. There Is not an animal
raised on the farm but that will eat
good clover hay In preference TO any
other rough feed Even the swine and
poultry relish feed of It occasionally.
Another large Item to the credit of the
clover crop is the manure made while
feeding It, which. If returned to the
soil in a proper manner, will still fur
ther Increase the fertility of the ground,
for that which makes the best and rich
est feed viii also make the best and
richest manure. The clover crop also
adds to the fertility Of the field by APP
propriating nitrogen from the air and
by sending down its long tap roots into
the soil and bringing up the elements
of fertility TO the surface, where they
can be used by the ordinary farm
crops which do not send their roots
as deeply. Glover roots also pulverize
and make porous the soil to n great
depth, increasing its capacity TO take
up and hold water I'm times Of abun-
dant rainfall and enabling II to give
back this water In times of drought

Our experience I'm feeding soaked
corn has been limited The first to
speak Of was last season, when we
were obliged to buy corn, and we
bought II already shelled. says a CORE
spondent OF Swineherd. Being dry
and hard, as 1t always is during the
summer. we placed 1t to soak from
one feed TO the next, thinking II better
20 feed. We fed In troughs, and the
soaking kept the pigs from kicking 1t
out Of the troughs to any considerable
extent. We mixed and soaked oats
with the corn and received as good re-
suits as II oats had been ground or fed
otherwise.
The pigs did not tire Of the soaked
corn, as we have seen them do on hard,
dry corn, and they would leave dry
corn any time TO eat the corn that had
been soaked. They did not eat any
more greedily In this way than other
wise and seemed to relish the soaking.
We think soaked corn a good thing for
the pigs, as their power of masticatlon
is found wanting compared to that OF
the hog. One can notice that a pig
Rrinds dry corn with difficulty. We
were pleased with the results and shall
continue to soak corn this season. We
shall shell all the corn we soak, as we
do not think It n good idea to feed
soaked ear corn on the ground In the
dirt.

Pigs that have this trouble when they
first begin to eat are Off feed at once
