Another important change is that
regarding the stock sinking fund.
Governor Frear's plan was to require
the stock sinking fund to be deposited
with a fiduciary company or trustees
in order properly to safeguard. 1t
was seen that such an arrangement
might prove unwieldy, and hence an
agreement has now been arrived at
whereby the company Is required to

tecting the stockholders, and that all
operations connected with the fund
shall be under the supervision and

Farmer Gives Interesting Experiment
Made With Crop Planted To-
gether With Glover.

By w. A. HARRINGTON. wisconsin,
Having experienced little difficulty
in keeping small tract Of rather in.
accessible land in the required state
of fertility. we tried vetch, both
spring and winter varieties. The
scotsman instructed US to grow It with
a nurse crop of oats.
We were told that vetch would not
thrive in our Wisconsin latitudes, and
for a time we were willing to believe
it. The vetch we started with the oats
did not get start at all. although the
season was comparatively moist.
However, one despised acre, an ex-
pertinent on our own part, which we
had planted to mixture of clover and
winter vetch, finally rounded in shape.
1t had fingered long. when suddenly
both clover and vetch took a notion
to grow.
In August there was magnificent
stand of forage, all of which was
plowed under Thus, although we lost
a seasons crop from that acre. the i'm
provement of tilth and fertility re-
sulting amply repaid the loss. Next
spring we will put in more vetch and
clover.

busy that he can't take time to selec;
the best hundred ears in his supply ol
seed, and, after testing to be sure OF
its vitality, plant in plot on the south

Doing this will not only simplify the
matter of selecting the seed ears next
fall, but the location of the best and
