1t is high time that farmers should
know what they SOW on their land
When clover is wanted nothing else
should be sown; when red top is
wanted, only this species should be
scattered over the land.
But people have been far too care
less. They have bought blindly and
sowed the seed without knowing
what they were planting. At the Con
necticut experiment station a sample
Of clover seed was examined that con
tanned $4,000 weed seeds to the
pound, Seed of this kin6 would be
extremely dear as a gift.
Know what you are buying, aud buy
only pure seed.

Three unclean spirits will proceed
from the mouth of the Beast, the
Dragon and the False Prophet. and
will assemble the kings and their ar
mics ON one side for the great Arma-

croaking. The symbol signifies that
these three systems will send forth
similar teachings.
They will look rise, and see little re
speeding differences between them.
They will pirate on Apostolic Authority,
the Divine prorogatives Of the clergy
and the civil power. They will croak
respecting the results of personal and
press liberties and cause the wheels of
progress to turn backward.
Tie kings and their armies represent
political kings, princes and retalnerS;
commercial kings. princes and retain
