In the last number of Gleanings In
Bee Culture, we find some more
items about sweet clover. Can you
not see that it is a good plant to ex
pertinent with, especially if you are at
all interested in Bees, hogs, or alfal-
ia:
Sweet Clover in the San Luis Valley,
Colorado.
The pasture problem (for pigs) has
been solved. Sweet clover, the COM
mon roadside and ditchside pest,
makes fine hog-pasture. When it
is small and innocent, hogs like it.
AS it gets older, like some folks it's
nature gets tough and bitter, and
nothing likes it. Therefore, plant it
for your hogs; and as soon as it is six
inches high, cut it down with now
er close to the ground. It will keep
more hogs to the acre than anything
else; grows anywhere, in rocks,
swamps, wet ground, dry ground, al
kali ground, cinders, or any thing,
and is the greatest ground enricher
OF all the legumes.-C A. Lyman in
The Breeders Gazette.
The above is still another item for
people Gf there are any, who insist
that sweet clover is a noxious weed.

6x8 these trees would thin them
Selves but in doing SO the dead
branches cling to the tree for years
after they die, new wood is deposited
around about the dead branch, but
does not close tightly about it, and
thus leaves hole into which fungus
spores gain entrance, the tree decays,
and finally breaks down. This failure
to shed it's limbs properly is one Of
the main sources of trouble in grow
ing the catalpa.
Thus planted, the tree should grow
two and a half feet in height and in
crease half an inch in diameter an
nually in the next ten years. In from
eight to ten years the largest will be
of suitable post size, and if they are
trimmed up SO as to avoid what is
known as soft rot, they can be count
ed upon to make lasting fence posts,
often remaining sound for thirty to
forty years.
The Department of Forestry has
been making Investigations as to the
returns from paintings of hardy
catalpa fifteen and twenty years ago.
There is very great variation in these
returns, but on good, rich soil in
southern Iowa, Illinois, eastern Kan
sas and Nebraska they have yielded
returns quite equal to ordinary rent
for the land after figuring in COM
pOHnd interest while the trees are
growing and also all other expenses
on a cash basis.
In one case in PaWnee county, Me-
braska, the profit on twenty acres
amounted to $3,o42.I2 or $I52.I7 per
acre. Figuring compound interest at S
per cent. for 10 and one-third years,
the profit was 1924 per acre per an
mum. The items Of cost in this case
were 1913 per acre for trees; $I8.4o
for planting, cultivating, and pruning.
Adding 5 per cent. compound inter-
est for the sixteen and third years
during which the plantation grew, the
total cost Of growing was $2634 per
acre. The cost of cutting and market
ing the crop was $6I.oo per acre, or a
total cost Of $2,I06.
Other groves which have been
planted and poorly cared for yielded
very much smaller returns. There is
testimony enough to justify the plant
ing by men who will give time, study,
and care, Of an acre Of hardy catalpas
in the latitude above mentioned for
each 100 acres Of land.

last week in August or the first week
in September, and the seed-bed
should be prepared as you would pre-
pare a seed-bed for alfalfa by thor
oughly disking wheat or oats ground
which is comparatively free from
weeds. The disl<ing should be
done as soon after harvest as pos
sible, and the land disked or narrowed
at frequent intervals, Or after each
rain, to conserve soil moisture and to
prepare a mellow, firm seed-beed.
Many farmers who have not been
successful with alfalfa have grown
sweet clover for hog pasture, keeping
the clover clipped off SO that it does
not becme hard and woody, with the
exception Of one crop each year,
which is allowed to grow up and seed
to furnish plants for the next years
crop. When grown in this manner
sweet clover has proven fairly salts
factory; but it should never be grown
for hog pasture where alfalfa does

Kansas or Oklahoma can furnish you
sweet-clover seed. c. E. Call.
There is another point that comes
in with the above; and that is, where
ever you can get a catch of sweet Glow
er, because sweet clover is the very
best agency in the world for bring

Keeping Of the Burglars.

Mr.. and Mrs. Choice had a mag
nificent Great Dane, brindle fellow
so tall that he could eat off the din
ner table without raising his head an
inch above it's natural poise. They

peated burglaries in the neighbor-

and stand him near the door, where
every one who calls can see him.
If you go to the door and see per-
son whom you suspect of being not
quite respectable, catch Bowse by the
collar, just as if he were alive, and
make a show of holding him back
yfro1. tearing the caller to pieces.
And so it was done, and the stuffed
Bowse was as effectual as the ami
mated one. Among the light-fingered
fraternity and the second-story gents
it soon got to be known that an ex-
ceedingly dangerous dog was in that
house; and they kept away.

The Hon. Joseph Chamberlain is
fond of relating an incident that oc-
Cured while he and Lord Rosebery
were returning from the theatre one
night. While crossing the street they
were accosted by a ragged boy who,
after sweeping the mud from their
path, asked for aims. Lord Rose
berry was about to give the boy coin
when an idea struck him. my boy"
said Rosebery, III you will hit that
policeman a swat will give you ten
shillings."
Prompt to the word the boy crept
in back of the officer, struck him in
the back, then turned and ran, but to
the dismay of Rosebery, the officer
caught the boy after chase of few
yards. Not willing to leave the boy
in a fix Rosebery tried to fix things
up with the officer, but the worthy
gentleman would not listen, and took
them all three up to the station.
They were then taken before the
judge of the station, and after sur
veying them through his glasses, he
took down a book and, turning to
Chamberlain, asked his name. Hon.
Joseph Chamberlain" was the reply,
and the Judge smiled. Rosebery re-
sponded also with his full title, Lord
Rosebery."
The boy was next, and stepping to
the front he drew himself up to his
full height and waited for the usual
question ssVour namn9',
