From the New York Press:

From the New York Press:

in the sick room," said a
practicing physician of this city,
but often it has to put up with a
great deal of badgering in the
court room"
One day a friend of mine was
called as a vitae IS in a case in
which one man had hit another
over the head with an iron bar
with disastrous results. Counsel
for the defense nagged and harried
the doctor, finally saying; Doc
tor, did l understand you to say
that when you reached the plain.
tiff his brains were escaping thru
the fracture in his SKULL"
Yes, sir
And do you mean to tell me,
doctor, that a man can live after
he has lost part of his brains7"
oh, yes, certainly" said the
doctor; I've known men to live
and practice law without any
brains at ALL"

hay mixed with timothy for fer
tility. Do understand him to
state that the ground would be as
much benefited by a meadow of

a. nv full crop Of cInv.ri |
would like to b, correct on tui,
have been under the impression,
the same as Mrs. Lyon, that it
would be, from general observa-
ton | am located in the river
bottoms where little clover is
raised; relatively a new commu.
nifty, and we have not barn room
to store clover hay in, and there is
not enough grown to pay a clover
butler to come here.
! have planned a rotation to
commence next year. Will SOW
fourth timothy, fourth
orchard grass and one-half clover
for a meadow the latter part of
August, cutting a crop of hay for
next year; will use it next year for
pasture and apply the manure of
that year on it; the next two
years plant il to corn and the
fifth year SOW to wheat, and bring
back to meadow again. This makes
a five-year rotation and will put
the hay crop back on the land and
other crops for the year it is in
pasture. Can keep up the fer
tility Of my land thus! | would
have tried it before this if | had
been rid Of the stumps in question.
This method of sowing.grass does
well here. Have never known Of
a failure to get a good stand if
proper preparation has been made
for seeding. We also get our
best crop of hay the first year af-
ter seeding. | have read after
Mr.. Clark of Connecticut on timO-
thy, and Mr.. Terry of Ohio on
clover, and think this mixture
gives the best hay yet for general
purposes. Alfalfa has failed to
come up to expectations here in
the bottom lands but | do not
think it will be as difficult to cure.
The first crop is nearly always
lost, and | believe one good crop
one year is better than three or
four small ones. Glover sown
with oats and wheat in past years
has been failure, but if sown
with timothy or alone, a stand is
generally assured. | would like to
hear thru the Rural World from
Mr.. Lyon and others regarding
this rotation and hay crop.

LEARNING FARMING.
ACallaway Man Tells What He
Expects to Do.

Editor Rural World: We have
been having rain for the past two
weeks, and it has been the genuine
article, too. Some corn that was
cut previous to the heavy rains
is badly rOtted, and other corn cut
at intervals since then will spoil
unless we have some sunshiny days
soon. Also that in the river bot
toms, which is not cut, is mostly
down fiat and interlaced with a sol
i'd mat of vines and weeds which
will soon spoil that part of the crop.
Not since 1902 has the corn been
anywhere near the fine crop it was
this year, but / think the yield
will not be up to the average OF
that year, at leastin this countyf
for the winds have caused much
corn to fall about the time it wa
matured. FAN pastures will b,
magnificent.
