The irrigation, which the average

imperative. is supplied on these minla-

ing cans. The larger farms have
cement lined stone reservoirs. some OF
which have capacity of several thou
sand gallons. These are filled from
permanent streams by cement troughs.
These leads are economically provided
by forming cement grooves on the
tops of the stone fences. which sepa-

in dividing hillside farms into ter

SWEET CLOVER is NOT WEED
Rank Growth Is Moved Down and
Used as Mulch Around Orchard
Trees, Adding Nitrogen.

Sweet clover, much-condemned
plant, is at last coming into it's own
For years farmers have looked upon
1t as an obnoxious weed and its native
habitat has been neglected roadsides
and waste lands. Now agricultural
science is beginning to see great pos
sibilities in this plant. 1t is highly
crop and in Kentucky and Illinois
some farmers are growing it in the
place of alfalfa as feed for live
stock. Several of the experiment sta
tons are making study of it's cul-
ture and use. There are two varie-
ties Of the sweet clover, or melilotus,
as it is rightly called, the white and
the yellow. The white makes a
ranker growth and is recommended
for blowing under as green manure,
while the yellow is grown for forage.
The farmers of the eastern and
southern states are making the
greatest use Of this crop. especially
for renovating WORKOUT lands One
leading seed firm in Ohio reports that
the demand for melilotus seed has in
creased 125 per cent during the last
year. The seed sells at the same
price as alfalfa seed. 1t will grow on
nearly any kind Of land and an aver
age crops Of seed is about ten bushels
per acre.
Prof w. H. Davis Of the college of
agriculture, Ohio State university,
is growing white sweet clover as
cover crop in his orchards. The rank
growth is moved down and used as a
mulch around the trees. Being a le-
gume, nitrogen is added to the soil
through the action Of the bacteria
growing on the roots of the plant, and
the decay of the crop supplies large
quantities Of humus.

Salt Water Irrigation,

Irrigation is Of special value when
the rivers Of the country contain salts.
This is the case. for instance. in
South Africa. where in many parts the
salt pans are a frequent feature. In
other cases the salt has gradually col
lected in depressions guarded by trees
and rushes. and in the course Of ages
has often reached great quantity.
Much salt of this kind would be car
ried over the land by irrigation, much
to its improvement.

"For many years was a constant
sufferer from indigestion and nervous

a package out of curiosity to know
what it was.
Il liked the food from the very

supplying brain and nerve force as
nothing in the drug line ever had

Cotton Market

NEW YORK. Sept. 25.-Yesterday's
developments in Washington failed to
relieve the nervousness of the cotton
trade over legislative possibilities, and
the market was unsettled again this
morning. Gables We're considerably
better than due. and prices here
opened steady, at an advance of to
10 points in sympathy with the
strength abroad Reports of heavy
rains in the southwest and apprehen-
sions of still lower temperatures en-
couraged buying, but there was con-
tinued heavy liquidation, and the
market soon eased off to within a
point of last nights closing. Support
from some of the larger bull intrests
and trade buying checked the decline
at the end of the first hour.
After showing a net loss of about
. to points the market steadied on
the unfavorable western belt forecast
and detailed weather reports showing
heavy rains in many sections of
Texas. Prices at midday were a point
or two above the closing figures of
last night.
Estimated receipts today, $4,000
bales.
The market was comparatively
quiet during the early afternoon, but
held generally steady and to 8
points over the closing figures of last
night.

Grain Market

CHICAGO, Sept. 25.-Big receipts in
the spring crop region carried wheat
prices today down grade. The total
of arrivals was much in excess of last
week and last year. Gables also were
weak Influenced by free Russian and
Canadian offers and by good crop
prospects in Argentina. The opening
was unchanged to % lower, and a
further decline followed.
Clear weather and liberal receipts
weakened corn. Longs were the prin-
cipal sellers. Prices started the same
as last night to Il off, and suffered an
additional sag.
Gossip that large SPECTATORS line
was being disposed of kept quota
tons depressed. The close was nerv-
Gus, as@1s to q under last night.
Despite profit-taking by shorts, the
oats market dragged lower with other
grain. Holders unloaded through
commission houses.
Provisions assembled, owing to Of
ferings being light. First trans
actions varied from last nights level
to five cents advance, and there was
a continued hardening of the market,
aided by strength at the yards.
Heavy rains in Kansas and Ne
braska, relieving anxiety about seed
ing, acted in favor of the bears. The
close was steady, but 9s to h@5s net
