SOME ENEMIES OF CLOVERS
Weakly Plants Coming From Small
Seeds at Start Require Room to
Develop Strength.

Alfalfa and clovers are but weakly
plants coming from small seeds at the
start, and they require room to devel,
op into lusty strength if they are to
be profitable.
Eastward we were all brought up to
a practice of sowing grass and clover
seeds with grain, which was early re-
moved. The hay plants taking more
or less full possession of the soil, and
as they failed, blue grass, weeds or
some inferior grass took possession
of the soil.
Here in the west where rainfall is
greatest in the spring months, nurse
crop and clovers start well together,
but pretty soon the moisture is too
little for the support of both, and
the weaker plants fail.
Even where there is more precipi.
tation, grasses and weeds often inter
fere seriously with the grass crop,
and August seeding is now recognized
as good practice. Disking at intervals
until a good seed bed is secured turns
the undesirable plants TO the sun and
destroys them and frost after a while
comes along and destroys the an,
nuals.
Cloyers and alfalfa, having free
yield, get well established and make
some cover for winter, which is well
to REINFORCE with some manure, the
weed seeds in which should not prove
troublesome if the clovers and grasses
have full possession. Narrowing ig
good for the crop, distributes the ma,
nure and kills the weeds. Never lose
sight Of the value of hay patch. Even
if it is small. it is worth more than
other farm crops; indeed, a neces.
sity unless much money and time are
10 be lost
1t is true there are some soils in
the arid regions where no free water
exists at any depth accessible to al.
falfa, and this crop will in three years
use up all the soil moisture as well
as the rainfall. and in such situations
alfalfa cannot be depended on In
many other places, however, the great
point is to help alfalfa to reach free
water to make conditions so perfect
that it can do so and thus secure a
permanent piece of hay ground.

We are consuming practically all

The price of meat is soaring and is
the highest ever known. 1t will prob
ably go higher.
Between 1900 and 1910 our popula-
ton increased 100000 The number
OF meat animals in the same time de-
creased 100000. In four years our
export of live animals fell off 66 per
cent and our dairy products exported
dropped rs per cent. In fifty years
our population will be doubled. How
shall we feed them? II is the most
serious problem that confronts the
American people today. The tariff
and all such questions are merely
minor and incidental in comparison.
In 1900 for every hundred persons
there were 80 cattle. Ten years later
there were only So per 100. The pro,
portion of hogs dropped from 81 to
80 and sheep from SO to 81. Think
what these figures mean.

tSKYSCRAPER STYLES OF 1912
Prospect Bright That Lofty Structures
Will Harmonic With Each 9th
err, Says Architect.

Impressive as the cliffs of Toledo,
is the phrase used by a prominent
architect in describing how Michigan
avenue, in Chicago, would appear If its
skyscrapers were designed as large
scale compositions of line and mass,
without recourse to the conventional
styles. each building harmoniZing with
its neighbor. An article in the Popu-
lar Mechanics states that a new
school of architects, believers IN TINS
style of design, is now coming to the
front in smaller buildings, and 1t Is
only a question of time when these
architects will invade the skyscraper
field. In the meantime architectural
details and ornaments are classic,
Romanesque. gothic or renaissance,
according to the preference OF the
architect or owner-and city street
is tumble OF all these styles. But
broadly speaking, certain principles
are coming to be recognized and the
buildings being erected this year show
a decided advance in the adoption OF
those principles by architects gen
orally.
When the construction of skyscrap-
ers first began architects were at a
loss to devise a style Of treatment
suited to what was called "a building
set on end" Bruce Price, a New
York architect, conceived the idea OF
designing such a building in way
analogous to a column-that is as
shaft and capital. This treatment is
now generally followed. The base is
usually three stories in height, with
strong horizontal lines, and serves to
break the vertical effect Of the middle
or shaft section. The capital or
architectural attic serves the same
purpose at the top Of the building.
In the middle section the vertical lines
are accumulated. In this way the
building forms complete compost
ton, having beginning, middle and
an end.

LIQUOR AND LABORING MAN
Saloon Has Much Better Chance to
Exhibit Its Fruits Among Work
Ing Class Than Among Rich,

The Christian Evangelist contends
that the liquor business is the great
est foe of the workingman, and that
he is the greatest loser by the sa-
loon. The rich man, it says, can get
along fairly well, THE money he
spends for liquor is not a serious mat,
ter to him. He runs no risk of los.
ing his job for drunkenness. His
family is not often brought to starva-
ton or beggary, and when he gets
seriously intoxicated his valet or the
servant at the club can take care of
him. OF course, even among the rich
large proportion of the divorces are
produced, directly or indirectly, by
whisky. But among the laboring
classes the saloon has its best oppor-
tunity to exhibit its fruits. Its effect
on character is no worse, but its
economic results are vastly greater
and worse"

What Ruins Girls,

FOR CAUSE OF TEMPERANCE
General Sir Ian Hamilton, X. c. B.,

Gen. Sir Ian Hamilton, X. G. B.,

Tor Scotland was that of Bruce at
Bannockburn, when he raised his bat
tleax and crashed the easuue OF Sir
Henry de Bohun as If 1t were a nut

hverance for Scotland was to be
gained by dealing a stroke at another
sort of cask-the cask OF whiskey. No

English army, that cask was in the
middle Of their own camp. and It was
