it is sufficiently rich to allow it to
grow something better. For instance,
there are paddocks Of lucerne grow
ing on King Island which would not
be there now if the melilot had not
improved the ground sufficiently to
allow it to do we'll.
Another good point is the ease with
which the grass is grown. The best
way is to burn off the paddock. If
scrub, it should be fallen about six
weeks or two months before, and i'm
mediately after the fire sow the seed
at the rate of about 10 to IS pounds
per acre; the sooner after the fire

hot ashes. The fire terminates the
seed more quickly than when unburnt
Melilot start to spring from March
to May, and keeps green right through
to February, when it dies off, and
is burned off again. 1t should be
burned off every year until we'll es-
tablished. 1t is an abundant seeder,
and cattle and horses rapidly spread
the seed in manure. 1t requires seed
ing only once. of course. The graz

an acquired taste; but when cattle get
used to it they become very fond OF

This melilot grass is indeed a won

show, it would make a lot Of what
is at present useless sand become use
full grazing country and the seed,
not being expensive, might easily be
given a trial. Dr.. Cherry, of the V1c-
torian Agricultural Department,
speaks very highly of this grass, and
it is also strongly recommended by
the Tasmanian agricultural experts for
green manurlng.
King Island is this year earlier with
grass than any of the districts [ saw
when travelling through Gippsland and
the western districts of Victoria; also
South Australia as far as Adelaide,
and also New South Wales. At the
end of March we had four inches OF
young grass, and at present it is about
10 inches. Drouths are unknown, and
seasons fairly regular. [ feel quite

The Economy of a Cement Floor.

The following item is part of an
article in the Practical Farmer:
Mr.. Condit has not laid a cement
floor under these pens yet, but he will.
By using straw freely he soaks up
much of the liquid, but not all: 1t IS
different from a manure shed, used
simply for storing manure. A cement
floor in this case is not needed. There
is no addition of liquid after manure
goes out of stable So there wild be
practically no teaching. But when
cows or other stock lie on the manure
all the time there are frequent addl-
tons of liquid. Then a cement floor
will pay we'll. Mr. Condit asked
Director Thorne, of the Ohio Expert
ment Station, about the need Of a
cement floor in these cow pens. |
was amused at his reply He said, in
substance: eff you had asked me
some time ago, I should have said |
did not think it would pay, SO little
LIQUID would escape, when bedding
was used freely. But we have been
trying the matter, keeping some cattle
on a cement floor. And | tell you now
that it will pay, Why, it keeps us

PIRATES
WIN FROM CUBS
Error Costs Cubs
the Game-Brown Per
mits But Two Hits.

Pittsburg, Pa, April 19-The hoo
doc perched on the banner of the Cubs
yesterday. Although outplaying the
Pirates in nearly every inning and in
every way and although Brown out
pitched Leineld and made the Pirates
look like marines instead Of bucca-
neers, allowing them but two little
singles, they lost the game by the
close score of i to 0. A squeeze"
play beat the Cubs. The pitching of
Mordecai Brown was the feature. In
the warming up process he had every
thing that looked good and Chance
trotted him out to lob them over. OPP
posed to him was Leifeld, who always
was successful against the Chicago and
on whom fortune smiled although he
pitched himself out of holes that look
ed like the subway On four occa-
sions hit when it was needed would
have won the game, but hits were as
scarce as righteous men in Pittsburg
The fasco Of the game was the
dropping of a fly by Slagle in center
field, which resulted in the Cubs los
ing the game. The short fielder was
replaced by Randall in the seventh
after Slagle gave an exhibition of in
competency in every department. He
had bad off day.
Nealon, the Pirates first baseman,
was injured sliding to second and was
replaced by Storke.
Steinfeldt had finger split in the
second inning, but continued in the
game.
In the seventh Evers dropped one
back of Leach and was sacrificed by
Moran, but Killing, who was sent to
bat for Slagle, and Brown were both
easy outs by the sky route, Randall
was sent to center garden in place of
Slagle.
Chance again made bid for a run
in the eighth, but again was denied
He drew four wide ones and on the
first pitched ball started for second
Phelps threw high and Chance went
to third. steinfeldt could only pop a
high one to Wagner and the last
chance had to be passed.
In the ninth Tinker. who batted for
Evers, was an easy out and Holman
and Moran were no more successful.
The score:
