CLOVER N WESTERN OREGON
Agronomist Tells How Best Raised,
When Cut and How to Dry.

Agronomist Tells How Best Raise !,
When Cut and How to Dry.
Oregon Agricultural College. Cor
Wallis The counties in Western Ore
gon which are producing the bulk of
the clover seed crop, according to Ag-
economist George R. Hyslop, of the
Oregon Agricultural college, are
Washington, Yamhill, Marion. Polk,
Linn. Clackamas and Benton. Coun-
ties having the best drained soils are
preferable for raising clover seed, he
says.
The clover is usually seeded in
fall-sown grain early in the spring,
preferably in February or in the first
weeks of March, Prof. Hyslop says.
About IL to Is pounds Of the seed
are used to the acre. The year fol-
lowing the crop is ready for the seed
production, and generally the first
growth of this second season is clipped
between the middle and last of May.
The clippings are allowed to fall on
the ground, or, in some cases, utilized
for green fodder. Sometimes the
clover fields are pastured with sheep
or other livestock up to about the first
OF May, but in this case care must be
taken to avoid pudding the soil by
planting.
"The object in clipping or pastur-
ing is two fold: First, that the second
crop makes more uniform growth
and produces more blossoms at time
when better fertilization of the flow
ers is secured, producing a larger re-
turn; second, that the clipping les
sens insect injury to the seed and i'm
proves the quality of the product.
Glover seed should be cut when the
heads have turned brown, by the use
of a moving machine with a punching
attachment or self-rake reaper.
The lunches of clover seed should dry
in the field and be threshed promptly
after drying to avoid less loss and Sc
cure the best quality of the Seed"

"cHlcAGo NOT AMERICA"

Regions. Not In Cities.
Chicago -" Chicago is not represen-
tative of the United States. It is big
and it is wonderful, but it is no more
American than is New York. When
we get outside of the big cities we
hope to see something of the real

In this manner DR.. Alfred Ruhl,

prevailing opinion of most of the IA

The visitors left over the Chicago &

WOMEN FALL IN BATTLE.
Nicaraguan Rebels Fight Desperatel,
Against Government,

Washington, d. C.-Twenty women
aiding the government forces at Man
aqua in preserving order against the
rebels were shot down during the four
days bombardment of Managua, ac-
cording to delayed dispatches to the
State department from George T..
Weitzel, the American minister there.
One hundred and twenty non-combat-
ants were killed, according to the
same advices. The news is coming
slowly but surely, and reveals atroci-
ties committed by the rebels in their
campaign against the government.
General Menas' grievance in Mica
ragua, the cause of the present revo-
luton, dates back to the time last
year when the assembly called to-
gether to ratify the convention be-
tween the United States and Mica
ragua proclaimed the next constitu-
tiona president to take the oath of
Office on January l, 1912, succeeding
Adolfo Diaz.

Many Repent Before Bier Of
Dead Commander.
salvation Army Barracks IN London
Filled to ovsrflowing Mourn
ing Purpossly omittsd.

London-FuneraI services for the
founder Of the Salvation Army, Gen.
erai William Booth, were held 1t the
Olympia. In accordance with the
traditions Of the organization. they
were held without pomp or symbols Of
mourning, but were carried ont with
moving fervor and impressiveness.
Thirty-four thousand persons particle
pated.
The body of the late general, in .
plain pine coffin, rested high upon .
white catafalque in front Of the big
platform across the end of the hall.
where all the chief officers OF the or
ganization were seated and whore 20
bands OF music were massed. The
crimson flag of the army Of fire and
blood" which the general unfurled on
Mount Calvary was planted about the
coffin. A bank Of flowers, composed
OF the tributes sent by royalty and by
many societies, was behind it.
In front rows of chairs before the
coffin were filled with representatives
of various parties and also the equerry
for the king, several mayors in the
robes and chains of Office, delegation
from the Stock Exchange, clergymen
of all the Protestant churches and
Jewish rabbits.
But the rank and file of the great
gathering was composed of the plain
people, for whom the army works and
of whom it is composed.
The most solemn moments of the
long meeting were when the coffin was
borne along the center of the hall to
the sonorous music of the dead
March from SAUL" A small process
sion, representing many branches Of
the army's activity, carrying the flags
of their respective countries, preceded
it.
Every seat on the floor and in gal
leries was taken when the service be-
gan, and thousands of persons were
banked around the outskirts of the
hall, half Of whom gould not see over
the shoulders of those in front, but
who could hear and take their part.
At the conclusion of the ceremonies,
prayers and hymns alternated for half
an hour, after which true Salvation
Army revival service was conducted
and an invitation given to sinners and
backsliders to come to the "mercy
seat Dozens of persons forced
their way through the crowded aisle
to the mercy seats, where they knelt
in PRAYER. In some cases the police
were required to force way for the
penitents.
The meeting was turned into col
ossal revival.
The most impressive feature Of the
service then followed. All the SOL
diers Of the army rose and recited the
covenant Of fidelity, pledging them
selves to be faithful soldiers Of the
Lord.

BOY DROPS 1000 FEET.
Lad Tangled in Balloon Guy Rope
Hurled From Great Height.

Flint, Mich.-In the presence of
hundreds of persons, 15-year-old Ches-
ter Belts, son of Bert O. Belts, of
this city, was accidentally caught by
the guy rope of balloon and carried
about 1000 feet in the air before the
rope untangled and dropped him to
death. He crashed against the roof
Of barn and was still alive when
Spectators reached him, but he soon
died.
The tragedy occurred at a county
1alr, and when the balloon and aero
naut shot upwards many persons
thought the youth dangling at the end
OF the rope was dummy.
The heroic efforts of the balloonist
to rescue the boy soon disclosed the
truth to the crowd below. AS the big
Dag crept higher and higher, the aero
naut, in peril of his own life, could be
seen working desperately to pull the
dangling form to the trapeze. Final
~ the rope swirled away from the lad
and the form dropped.

HOSTAGES FATE FEARED.
French Troops Too Busy to Rescue
Officers From Moors.

Paris-Public anxiety is becoming
intense over the fate Of the seven
French officers held as hostages by the
Moors under Ell Hiba, at Marakesh,
Morocco. Emissaries have been dis
patched to Marakesh by the French
commander, but have obtained no in
formation. General Lyautey, the
French resident governor, reported to

who had undertaken the dangerous
duty had returned from Ell Hiba's
headquarters where they in vain tried
to effect ransom, but could not as

The French column commanded by

liberty of action to proceed to the sue

should be thought advisable. The

SERVICE TO THE PEOPLE.
Tax Supported College Should Tell
People Where Money Is.

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
vallis-Since the Oregon Agricultural
college is state institution, support
ed by public tax, the manner in which
the funds appropriated are spent,
what is offered in return to the young
men and women of the state in the
way of educational advantages and
practical training, and what the insti-
tuition can do for those unable to come
to the college. 1t is considered q
part Of the proper work of the institu-
tion to report through the public press
the results of scientific Investigation,
in such untechnical form that they
may be of interest and assistance to
the general reader.
For this reason press bulletin de-
partment was established recently,
and through it the daily and weekly
newspapers Of the state are kept con-
stantly advised of new courses offered,
new experts added to the corps of in
structors and Investigators, discover
les made which will aid the farmer,
gardener, fruitman, and stock raiser,
and new publications which may be
had for the asking.
Besides the news stories to the
daily and weekly press of the state,
there are prepared at frequent inter-
walls articles for the agricultural and
other technical publications having
any considerable circulation in the
state. Altogether there have been
sent out since September /, 1911.
1927 articles which have included
II, O82 typewriter sheets and O,13b
in mimeograph form. Many of these
have been illustrated by photographs
of the college campus, equipment, lab
oratories, and demonstrations to show
the reader more clearly the meaning
of the text.
