rows, and cultivate two or three
times. Take the peas or beans off
in September for hay and disk the
land and SOW to wheat. Immedi-
ately after the wheat is removed
(July prepare the land for August
seeding of clover and grass, with
out nurse crop. On soils outside
Of the Basin of Middle Tennessee,
300 to 500 pounds per acre of phos-
phate should be applied to the
acre before planting beans or peas.
To secure stands of volunteer
clover and hence plants resistance
to disease, the second crop of clover
should be turned under in Septem-
ber and the ground sown to rye for
a sheep pasture, or green manure
crop for the corn which follows.
Abbreviated, this rotation is as
as follows:
First year-corn, rye in the
corn.
Second year-Beans or peas in
rows and cultivated.
Third year-Wheat or grain,
stubble Immediately plowed for
August seeding of clover.
Fourth year-Clover, second
crop turned under and rye sown.
Fifth year-The land goes to
corn and the rotation starts round
again. Cotton may be substituted
for corn in this rotation.
In the northeastern counties of
Tennessee clover is sown In July
and August in buckwheat, with
uniform success.

HUGH TOTTY GONE.

La a hospital at Memphis last
| Wednesday night the death angel
came and waited into eternity the
spirit of Hugh Totty, youngest son
of Mr.. and Mrs. b. A. Totty of Eva
City. Another home is made sad;
another home left with a vacant
place that can never be filled this
side the beautiful City of God has
been added to the already great
list of places caused by the death
of loved ones.
Hugh was a noble-hearted boy,
just growing into manhood, and it
is sad to give him up, but oh, what
a great consolation to the grief
stricken father and mother to hear
Ross, the elder brother, who was
with him when God took him to
his eternal home, repeat Hugh's
dying words, which were, Gross,
come here; [ am going to die, and
| want to kiss you" He threw his
arms about his brothers neck, and
said, "Ross, [ am going to die-I
want to die; | am ready to 60"
Then he laid his fevered head on
his pillow, drew one long breath
and was gone-gone to meet the
kind, loving Savior whom he had
lately sought to follow as he walked
through life.
To his associates we would say,
you who are travelling today on the
broad path that leds to eternal de-
struction, will you not give your
heart to God, as did Hugh, and be
able to say as he did, should God
call you, l am read to meet God in
peace? May the great spirit of
God, which is today seeking to
save every poor fallen man or
woman, no matter how deeply
dyed in sin their characters may
be, may he find and save you is
the constant prayer of
A FRIEND.

Passing Away.

The cid scheme of promising
job or some political favor to
esteem" separate and distinct men
who banker after such things is so
decadent with age and use that it
will hardly serve the purpose it
did during the halcion days Of
machine rule in Tennessee, when
a machine promise was as alluring
to politician as poppy gown or
harem skirt is to jelly-bean,
Those old days of a promise of
fat sob for every influential sup
porter and a school building for
every friendly community are
passing away.
The reason those days are pass
ing away is that the jobs didn't
hold ont and the school houses
didn't 60 around.
There are a lot of people, how
ever, who have not found out that
the game has fallen into disrepute,
for it is claimed that many fat Of
fees are now being apportioned at
the ratio of sixteen promises to
one job, and the political suckers,
of whom we are assured a hundred
are born every minute, are shoal-
ing on the sand-bars over which
the enticing promises ripple in
concord Of sweet sound.
"Come with us and we will give
you an Office" is the sirene song
Of the political deceiver. "Come
with us and you shall not want
for favors.'
This is whispered to the weak
and frivolous, and, in the days of
old, many listened to the song.
Who would not join the enemy
for a fat joh?. But who would be
foolish enough to accept rs fnH
payment vain promise which can
never be redeemed?

W. Aou oioNol III IL sySGeIn
or crop rotation, but we have not
always been mindful Of the soil
requirements for successful clover
production.
On average Tennessee soils, a
succession of wheat, corn or cotton
soon puts the land in condition
that red clover refuses to grow
luxuriantly. 1T is then that par
tlal stands occur and the plants
have little resistance to the red
clover disease. The failure of
clover has been too common for
the last twenty years, indicating
that judicious crop rotation has
been neglected. Another condi-
tion of failure, especially empha-
sized during the past season, is a
prolonged drouth during May and
June. Thousands of acres sown
to clover in February and March,
1911, have failed to give stands
and have either been consumed by
crab grass, or have been planted to
cowpeas or soy beans.
To most successfully overcome
the difficulties in the way of get
ting clover is to SOW in August on
well prepared land. Recent exper-
iments indicate that much larger
yields may be procured the follow
ing season by seeding in August
without nurse crop than in the
preceding February or March with
wheat or oats or other grain. If,
when the grain is removed in June
the land is plowed or even disked
at once, and fa)loEed until August,
catching all the rain that falls,
enough moisture will be stored up<
to tide the young clover through
dry fall. August sown clover is
too late to suffer from the disease
the wear seeded and is cut the next
wear before the disease overtakes
it. Had the land on which the
red clover failed from the spring
seeding of 1911 been Immediately
prepared after the grain crop was
removed, for August seeding of
clover there would be more hay
next June than had the early sum-
mer season been favorable to stands
of spring sown seed.
Another reason why clover should
be sown in August on well prepar-
ed ground rather than IN February
or March with wheat as nurse
crop is on account of the Hessian
fy. This reason is not in the in
terest of clover but of the wheat.
Volunteer stands of wheat coming
up in July and August in land
seeded to clover or grass, or both,
is responsible for the heavy dam
age done by the Hessian fly in this
State. In the absence Of the clover
or grass the wheat stnbble could
be plowed or disked and volunteer
grains largely destroyed. If then
the preparation for August seeding
Of clover prevents the Hesslan fiy
as we'll as assures us or better
stands of red clover, a trial OF at
beast few acres is worthy OF the
undertaking.
We should remember that the
breaking of ground for clover and
for the destruction of the fly should
take place Immediately after the
wheat is removed. Late August
preparation will not do, and Sep
tember preparation is sure to prove
failure.
