SWEET CLOVER.
Garden City, Kan, May IS, 1918
Mr.. A, e. King, Secy.,

Denver, Colorado,

Denver, colorado,
My Dear Sir:
Continued from last week J
l have lived here a little over
81 years, and am well acquainted
or at least ought to be, with the
country, and have gone through
all the pioneer stages and also
have handled more or less live
stock during all these years.
| do not contine myself to the
raising of sweet clover only, as /
have alfalfa, and grow barley and
katfir corn, cane, etc, also COW
peas; but think so well of this
clover that am making it my
main crop.
AS this clover is one Of the
best, or the best, of the clovrrs
for fertilizing worn out soil, and
while it seems willing to grow
where nothing else will, too
many people regard it with so
little respect that they are mere
ly trying it as an experiment,
and are sowing it on land that
they have no other earthly use
for, while the fact is there is no
land too good, where one is rails
ing other crops on for this clover
and in this way possibly some
will be disappointed with it. 1t
is too valuable a plant not to give
fair show and treat with decent
respect.
Most of the land upon which |
am growing this clover is on the
Arkansas River bottom where it
is from 3 to 10 feet to water, and
of sandy loan soil. A good
deal of it | have sown on the ma
tive sod where the grass is tall
enough for protection and done
nothing further with it. Some
1 have grown on native,sod where
the grass is graZed off and l have
either narrowed OF disced this
and what L am going Ia saisas@s
this, week | am going to drill in
with disc drill having a runner
packer attachment and Will drill
along with it about peck of
barley to the acre.
The growing of sweet clover is
no experiment and the only
trouble is that some people are
just awakening to its good quail
tiles. 1t has been successfully
grown in Idaho, Utah, the two
Daiotas, Iowa and Kentucky for
two years.
| have inquiries from seed
houses in New York, Ohio, Iowa
and Missouri, who desire to ne
gotiate with me now for fall de-
livery, in car load lots, should L
have any good seed to offer them
Also have the same inquiry from
Kansas City hay dealers who
desire to handle my baled hay
crop. So far | have been able to
feed and sell to other cattle men
all the hay l could raise.

SPRING FLOWERS

To some people spring means the
yelling of the bleachers, to others
battling with the elusive wits of the
trout Philosophic persons wander
out and dream surging dreams of
spiritual restrictions typitied by the
abundant life about them.
To other people thert is a gentle
charm in the pursuit after the flow
ers of spring. The location of such
plants is a secret, carefully guarded
like hidden treasre, revealed only to
the chosen ones. Going Annoying
is a tradit onal diversion handed
down from English life. 20 that we
two were maying," has enshrined it
in imperishable verse
Years ago country schools used to
celebrate May day, as holiday o.
voted to flower searching. Teacher
used to wander afield, followed by
her tender little lambs, and all re.
turned at night with achy legs, but
full baskets filling their chubby
hands, Today it is to be feared that
a fifth grade hoy who went may ng''
would be suspended from his ball
team for 80 days.
However, many more people are
studying botany today than ever be-
fore. Mostly women, though Ma
ture clubs and Audubon societies are
prowling along the streams and
through the forests, harried by fear
of peaceful cattle. more or less
DISNEY elled by spreading barbed wire
fences, but altogether happy.
Few men study botany now It is
not competitive enough. Probably il
prizes were offered to see who would
recognize and tabulate the greatest
number of specimens in 80 days, the
men would get out too.
If they are caught carrying flowers
through the streets, they feel as
apologetic as does a man who carries
Bible and quarterly to Sunday
school. They care nothing for the
flowers themselves, of course, and
merely do it to please their wives.
A man, however, has no objection
to carrying florists box through
the street. Queer thing. human ma
ture, isn't it?

If man ever really loves a wo-

is woman who never abuses him.
Every woman seems to imagine that
she is sort of a missionary and that
as soon as she has influence over a
man, she must reform him; that is.
make him different from what a man
will ever be- No woman ever adj
mitted that a man ever had a right
to be natural So she begins her re-
torn work, and in a little while she
has lost her influence. A man hates
nagging and fault finding, he hates a
woman who pretends to love him one
minute and then abuses him the next.
