CLOVER IS VALUABLE.
1t Is Not Only nm Excellent Food for
Swine But Also the Best of
Land Feeders.

One of the grasses that will prove
beneficial and profitable to every farm
er who can grow it is clover. 1t is not
only an excellent food for swine for
both health and growth, but it is a
land feeder or fertilizer, says writer
in American Swineherd. But few farm
ers understand the advantages that
come from growing clover outside of
its feeding value. The productiveness<
OF the farm can be maintained or i'm
proved by the growing of clover.
Every farmer should exert himself to
provide fields of clover. 1t is not only
good hog feed, but it is equally as
good for sheep and cattle, and the very
best hay for young calves. a good
many farmers have used clover hay
for feeding hogs in winter season, run
ming it through a cutter and mixing it
into thick slop as balancer CT the
ration and distender of the stomach,
preventing compacting of the concen-
trated feeds. The advantages of clovcr
as food are that they give the pigs
that succulence that is so desirable to
provide the smooth coats and rapid
growth that come from feeding it. 1t
is balancer of the ration of grain,
which cheapens the feed and lessons
the cost of producing pork. 1t is not
only good for the feed value, but be-
cause of the advantages in combining
1T with grain ration which enables
more to be got from the grain than
otherwise would. Besides the growth
and gain that comes from feeding it,
is the fact that it is highly relished by
the swine and productive of better
health. 1t keeps the bowels in coed
order, prevents constipation, and is,
therefore, a very valuable hog feed.

She said to Mrs Miles:
"Oh, if could only see the world!"
She takes keen interest in America

private talk with Mrs. Miles and invit-

presented Mrs. Miles with two large
squares of gold embroidered crimson
silk, her own handiwork.
Another personal gift of the empress

brass incense vessel of ancient days,
long used in one of the most famous

THE AZTEC CALENDAR.
Curious Relic in the City of Mexico
That Was Carved Over Four
Centuries Ago.

One of the curiosities of all ages is
built in the wall of the cathedral in
the City of Mexico. 1t is the Aztec
calendar, carved in 1912. While being
carried to its destination it broke down
bridge and fell to the bottom of the
lake in which the city was built, kill
ing priests and people. With great
difficulty it was raised out of the wa
ter. With other objects of heather
worship it was afterward buried in the
marsh. as the best way to get rid of it,
and there it lay hidden for two cen
turtles. In 1890 the Spanish viceroy al
lowed it to be built into the cathedral
on condition that it should be pre-
served and exposed always in public
place. 1t is now. however, held as the
property of the National museum, says
he New York Press.
The Aztec calendar is solid piece of
stone, ~ feet in diameter. 1t divides
time into cycles, years and days. Fifty

prevent the final enactment of an APP
preparation bill if it did not contain
para graph of interest to South Caro-
lima. These facts, and others, are
fresh in the minds of the senators.
Senator Frye, although an expert
enced parliamentarian, and the major
ity of the senate could do nothing to
force vote. However, there are two
sides to the controversy, and the
change might not be wise.
George Washington is said to have
remarked that the senate is the saucer
into which the hot tea of the house
is poured to cool! The smile, wheth-
er it originated with Washington or
not, is an expressive one. Many able
statesmen believe it a good thing to
have in our government a brake upon
the wheels of hasty legislation. They
say the good that is done by the sen.
ate's slow and conservative methods
is incalculable, while the harm is in
considerable.
Talk OF an extra session next fall
had the effect of hurrying matters
up in the special session of the senate
somewhat. AS a presidential nomina.
ton draws near, senators have extra
work to do at home, and it was not
possible, even though the session had
not completed the work for which il
was called, to remain in Washington

uulleS as VIE O1
cabinet officer and then as wife of
senator, Mrs. Alger probably recalls
a momentous question of etiquette
which threatened to disrupt the friend
ship of all upper tendon at one time.
Society had been proceeding in an in
formal, republican way when all at
once some smart Aleck suggested that
there shouldhe rules of precedence for
the wives Of the supreme court, the
senate, the cabinet and the house TO
follow.
The women caught onto the idea, APP
proved it, and a war of words waged
whole season. They say the mistress
of the white house even, took hand in
it. There were several first class rows
before this question of social prece-
dence was settled in the order which 1
have given above. The senate wives
won precedence over the cabinet wives
because the senate had to confirm the
members of the cabinet! The sena-
torial phalanx tried the same game
on the Judiciary, but it did not work,
for one clever wife of justice of the
supreme courtreminded the senatorial
women that the justices held on for
life, while the senator's were safe for
only six years! The argument was I'M
answerable. and the wives of the sena-
tors yielded the point.
