A Point mt Issue.

Several of the lawyers had told their
stories, some OF which ridiculed the
continued use Of legal verbiage and the
absurd lengths to which members Of
the profession sometimes go in taking
advantage OF technicalities.
"a rank outsider" announced the
member OF the profession who had
been n good listener, "a client of mine,
supplied the best instance of literal In
depreciation that ever came to my
knowledge. He was executor under n
will that, among other provisions, re-
quired the payment of an annuity to
venerable aunt OF the testator. But
proof of her being alive must be made
before each payment, and this Is the
rock on which the executor struck.
"The old lady proved herself In the
flesh, drew her money and went to Cal
ifornia, where she spent two years
without putting in her claim. On her
return she went In person and demand
ed the double allowance due her.
"The conscientious executor got out
the will, studied Il, scratched his head
and finally handed down his opinion:
Madam, you are alive now. There
can be no reasonable question as to
that, for have the conclusive evidence
Of my own eyes. But / am possessed
Of no legal proof that you were alive
year ago. am, as you know, within
the restrictions Of the will. / will pay

cure divided roots from n reliable

tendency to degenerate, and the great

Plants with one, two or three buds to

one or two inches below the level Of
the surface. Fill I'm about the roots
with the compost and soil. Never put
fresh stable manure next to the roots.
Firm the soil thoroughly, 30 as to
leave no air spaces. If the soil lacks In

Of fresh stable manure, either from the

When Edward VII as Prince Of Wales
visited America in 1850. Canada went
wild over him, and in Detroit and
Chicago the crowds were so dense
that the party could scarcely reach
their hotel SO many were the reeep-
tlous. dinners and other social func-
tions In which the prince participated
that he finally broke down through
sheer fatigue and oyerexcitement The
Duke Of Newcastle, who was the
princes companion, decided, therefore,
TO stop off on their way to ST. Louis at
Dwight Station, Il quiet village famous
for It's shooting The prince brought
down o bag Of II brace Of quail and
four rabbits But the pleasure Of the
day was marred by the following incl

As the royal party approached a

There is not an actor, an actress. a

va.liag lau-Uage before the confusion
of tongues.
Referring to the aforesaid awesome

MakeN point To leave as high a

heavy rainfalls, usual nj this early sea

and exposes at least twice the amount
of soil surface to the warming and dry

readily leveled by one or two passages

SOWING GLOVER.

Success With Glover Means n Sniff
cheney OF Soil Moisture.
As to time of sowing clover l do not
think there is any sure time, although
1t may be called n very reliable crop IL
good seed is sown on good soil any
time between February and April
Early seeding favors deeper roofing
before dry, hot weather. In fact,
have found that clover will grow at
any time on good soil where the sup
ply of moisture Is ample. The pres
erce Of plenty of moisture In early
spring makes this the most reliable
time. 1t is with red clover, as with
crimson, necessary to consider well the
conditions Of soil that favor germina-
tion and growth.
| haze sown crimson clover at seven
different times in the season and find
it n very sure crop sown the latter part
Of June. as the soil moisture is then
ample to favor termination and strong
roofing. Common red sown beside 1t
does as well whether sown in June,
July. August or September, but sown
later than August neither gets strong
enough, even in very favorable seasons,
to survive the winter, and both are al
most sure to fail IL the season Is dry
and hot Success with clover means a
sufliciency Of moisture.
Because of the need OF moisture we
must put the ground in tllth to retain
moisture. Farmers have so long trust
ed to getting the seed covered by the
frost or rains that they have not given
IL as good a chance as they have their
oats. wheat and barley. This trusting
to nature TO cover the seed has led TO
the custom Of sowing only In the freez-
ing and thawing season. A friend
asked me why we cannot SOW medium
red clover after we lay by corn and
have clever to turn under the next
spring. told him that we could lf we
secured the moisture and then covered
the clover seed. lie claims that clover,
thus tried. Is as sure n crop as wheat
or barley. Just how deep clover will
bear covering do not know. but TO
get n stand In June or July IL is as nee
essary to cover medium red AS crimson
and for the same reason.
These unusual notions on clover seed
ing are advanced by well known
Ohio farmer.
