From Hunter.

A great many people can say; "sil- yer and gold have none. Yet al wish to give their children start -ir life. The best treasure you could be stow on them would be an education This priceless jewel is within the reach of those who will earnestly strive for it. They may be compelled to realize that much study is weariness to the flesh. and of looks there is no end, but fl they have desire for knowledge it is within their reach.
 Give your children an,oprortunity tc develope themselves. Be sure of this fact, use and education and il will in- crease, give of your knowledge te others, and and you are not the poorer, but if they waste the money you give them, if is gone forever.

Merits of Japan Clever

EDITOR ARGUS;
 have noticed considerable com ment in the agricultural papers on the little growth, Jepanese~ clover. The writer lives on the prairie 10 the south of Monroe County and has never had much use for this little plant.
 In my horse, COW and hog pastures this clover has crept in wherever there was bare spot. It causes mules and horses to slobber badly. Some de- clare it will not affect them if they have plenty of salt or have not eaten the clover when the dew is cn, but these remedies are ineffective. Hogs will not eat it till compelled to. When they take to it they grow ard fatten on it.
 I.baheve this clover is much bet ter fertilizer than coWpsas. Last year I turned under 2 heavy crop of clover that was growing on old ground that had not been farmed for three years, and planted 10 the II GOA corn va riety. The corn On this land made from two to three ears more to the
 , stalk than the same kind of corn did on the same kind of ground that had been farmed every year.
 Last year cut and baled few tons of hay in my pasture where at least one third was clover. Ii was an ill- iury to the Flat Blade grass to lay so long before being raked as it took the clover twice as long to cure. It would be necessary to keep twice as much of the clover cut down so il would be curing, and should a rain come up the loss in grass and labe r for cutting would De QcuCie.
 While this clover is going through the sweat in the bale 1t turns dark and lookq as if it would spoil, but after the sweat it is nice and green. have been feeding il this month to my mules, horses and COWS. They all eat 1t readily but cannot tell whether it ll better than all prairie hay, or that 1t is a saving of grain.
 On farm where it has already got a little little start start its spread is easily en- couraged by not cultivating the land or leaving some shocks or windrows to rot and kill cut the grass in the meadow. or by over Pasturing. If any one has a way to discourage its growth, should like to hear from him.
