It is of considerable interest to know
that the bacteria associated with tile
growth of sweet clover are identical
with those connected with the growth
Of alfalfa and that the soil on which
the sweet clover grows is Just as good
for the purpose Of inoculating field
Of alfalfa as though it had been pro-
cured from field where alfalfa was
well established. The sweet clover
may be found in abundance along the
railroad rights Of way and by the road
sides all over the west. When young 1t
looks almost exactly like alfalfa.

Very high prices for any farm CON-
modify one year will almost always be
followed by low prices for the same
product the next year, the average man
being fierce to buy high priced seed
and plant largely, thereby Cutting the
market. The best time to take up the
growing Of any special crop is when it
is selling below the cost of productions;
then the same man will not touch it.

SOME OLD INDIAN DISHES,

Civilized people who can draw on all the habitable and uninhabitable globe for food products have little idea of the narrow range of foods to which the Indians were confined, or of the many and various combinations they could make out of what they had. They had corn. beans and pumpkins, but most of their supplies were from the natural animal and vegetable life around them, and to utilize these to the best advantage required the exer- else of all their ingenuity.
 One of their favorite dishes was made from the leg bones of the deer. These were broken up and thoroughly boiled with meal made of parched corn. When fully cooked 1t made a mess something like our hogs-head cheese and the Indians were very fond of 1t. Then. too, they had various methods of preparing the deer's flesh so as to make the food less monoton- ous. One of these was to dry 1t and then pound 1t until 1t resembled fne- cut tobacco. They would press this meat into convenient sized balls and dip it in honey, making what was to them a delicious morsel, and we sus- pect civilized appetites might relish 1t at a pinch, or as a change of diet.
 In the swamps and lowlands of many sections of the country a bull bous root called bog-potato grew plentifully in the days before the lands were drained and cleared for cultiva- tion.
