TURNING CLOVER UNDER

TURNING CLOVIIh GSACLIN.
We note the question is asked
whether a heavy clover crop should
be plowed under or burned off? We
say, by all means, plow it under. and
thus add humus to the soil. We new
er burn cornstocks, even though we
seldom follow corn with corn. We
have for thirty-fve years plowed I'M
der clover for corn, followed it with
wheat and then clover, This rotation
will preserve the fertility, as land that
has been farmed this way for sixty
years produces very excellent crops.
In addition to this rotation we aid
in preserving the fertility by hauling
out all the manure produced on the
farm, and by feeding all the feed we
raise, and a good deal we buy. to our
cattle and hogs. We can say our
land produces better crops now than
it did thirty-five years ago when we
began the rotation and the building
up of the soil We never burn any
thing that will make humus = S.,

Frequently the farmer has NO sklm-
milk for feeding purposes. Then it
becomes necessary to feed something
else. George v. Fowler, of Waterloo,
Iowa. recently carried out an expert
ment on the farm Of Fred Decker, and
we quote herewith from his remarks
concerning his work: when spring
came we began to feed the brood soWs
corn, oil meal and bran combined, so
as to produce the same ratio of pro-
tein as oats and bran, also adding
bulk as we'll as protein. Tins was
continued until the pigs, seyenty-tWo
in number, were big enough 10 eat
some Then oil meal and shorts were
mixed in a stiff slop. This was done
SO he could make better use Of pas
ture than if fed thin. Then when
weighing about seventy pounds each
they were worked onto corn with pas
ture, as during seven months Of the
year protein can be secured through
pasture many times cheaper than IN
any other form. Our aim was to use
feed to produce plenty of growth at
the lowest cost during the first five
months.
No doubt oil meal and shorts, and
particularly clover pasture with
light corn diet may be advantageous1y
used in pig raising.

Penna had been absent from his

chief concern seemed to be to reach
his wife and children and again start
out on another voyage in order to
earn bread for them. He told the story
of adventure as follows.
I'VE left New Bedford on the brig
Sullivan (owned in Norwich) on June

in command. There were thirty-siX

We went first to the Western Grounds

whales. On September rs we landed
$50 barrels of oil at st. Michael's, in
the Azores.
Twelve men deserted there, and
with a short crew we started out to
whale again. It was November Is
when we put in at St. Nicholas, in the
