Clover on sandy Soil.

1t is not so easy to secure heavy growth
Of clover on light sandy soil as on soils
that are heavy. and the matter of blowing
under green crops is therefore more diff
fcult, owing TO the scant growth, some
times rendering the experiment a costly
one for seed and labor Soils destitute of
clay are not easily got into condition
for clover. but it is possible by the use OF
manure, fertilizers and green crops 10 get
clover established on sandy soils. One
Point to consider is that clover is a lime

not deficient in lime. while sandy soils are
usually lacking in that mineral substance
A crop of COW peas. plowed under Just be-
fore the seed pods begin TO dry and about
twenty bushels OF lime per acre applied
after blowing the COW peas under, will
greatly assist in rendering the conditions
for clover suitable. Another point which
should not be overlooked and which may
have much to do with the thrift of the
clover, is to procure soil from fields on

the late rains and escapes the usual dry
period Of June and July.
If the farmer has insufficiency or
manure he should not hesitate TO use fer
tilizers, and the cheapest kinds of fertil-
izers are preferred for clover. as the crop
demands very little nitrogen. About loo
pounds of sulphate of potash, 200 pounds
calculated phosphate and twenty-five
pounds nitrate of soda will serve admiral bly,,
especially if a green crop of COW peas has
been plowed under and the land lined. One
reason for using lime is that a mass OF
green material may cause the formation OF
excess of carbonic or other acids in the
soil, which are neutralized by the lime. The
lime will also assist in producing the condi-
tions most conducive to the work OF bac-
terra in the soil
Should the ground be covered with weeds
plow them under and broadcast with the
COW peas. which grow rapidly and keep
weeds down, but even weeds make excel
lent green manurial crops when they are
plowed under. They do the most harm
when they are allowed to produce seed.
The land for clover should be clean. as
the fewer the weeds the better for the
young clover plants. Fertilizers should be
used in preference to manure. as the lat
ter may contain the seeds of weeds unless
it is thoroughly decomposed.

RECENT LEGAL OPINIONS.

Insurance Policies-Standard Time
When is ii noon in Akron. o.? A case
recently decided has answered the question
ana concludes that noon takes place at
n:2I a. m, standard legal time The point
arose In this way: Thomas Mier took a
hre insurance policy on his saloon at IL 80
standard time, four years ago. the poicv
being dated noon OF that day. At the very
minute he was getting his policy the saloon
caught fire and was burned. The company
refused to pay the insurance on the ground
that the fire took place before noon on the
day In question. The court. however has
decided that noon in Akron comes when the
sun crosses the meridian. which is at thir-
ty-three minutes before IL. and the company
is therefore liable on the policy. Law

station, called galactose, which is proving
of value in the ripening of cheese The
properties of this ferment are similar 10
the secretion of the pancreatic organ in the
human body. Old cheese is predigeSted
food, and the digestion is wrought by gal
actose. II was found that the galactose
would go on working at very low tempera-
lures, temperatures at which bacteria were
practically inert. Cheese was put into re-
frigera tors and kept frozen for months.
other cheese was kept just above the freez-
ing point 1t was found that the finest
cheese is cured at from forty degrees to
forty-ive degrees F. Practical cheese man
ufacturers had maintained that fifty de-
greeS was the lowest temperature at which
cheese could be worked without becoming
bitter and worthless. The new discovery
will il is believed. revolutionize cheese
