.DESP|SED WEED
COMING TO FRONT
Common Old Sweet Clover. j. Be-
coming Recognized as Of Consid-
cradle Agricultural Value

The Kansas Experiment Sta
ton in a recent publication makes
it plain that sweet clover, a hith-
erto neglected plant, despised as
a pernicious weed, has very con-
siderable agricultural value. It
is stated that as a soil improver
it is unexcelled; for pasturing
purposes it has considerable val
ue; and as a forage crop it can be
utilized to good advantage where
alfalfa or red clover can not be
successfully grown.
Attention is called to the fact
that there are several varieties
of sweet clover, of which the
common white sweet clover and
the large biennial yellow sweet
clover are the most important.
The white variety is generally to
be preferred for farm purposes,
although the biennial yellow is
sometimes preferred where hay
production is desired. Sweet
clover is adapted to a wide range
of soils, and while it does best or
good soils, it will make a salts.

Grown on good soil and pro,
perly handled it makes a fail
quality of hay which may in many
cases be substituted with advant
age for the more valuable alfalfs
and clover hays. In actual nutri
tive constituents it is practically
equal to these. 1t makes an ex
cellent pasture for cattle, sheep
horses, and hogs, and for this
purpose may be profitably grown
on very poor and rough land.
For quick results in improving
the soil sweet clover is superior
to most crops. Its ability tx

OIL 0PERATORS
ARE ADVISED TO
REDUCE OUTPUT

While the partial resumption of the
oil export trade has relieved the striR.
gency in the crude petroleum markes
to some extent, the situation in tile
fields is far from being satisfactory,
for the big refining and marketing
concerns are still struggling with an
unwieldly production, which threatens
to tax storage capacity to the limit,
says the San Francisco Chronicle. The
efforts to bring about a general eur
tailment of production and develop
ment work in the California fields have
not been uniformly successful, accord
ing to reports, and operators in all
districts are still being advised to heed
the appeals of the Standard and other
companies to reduce their production
as far as possible, so that the general
good Of the industry will be served.
In accordance with its recently de-
elared policy of eurtailment, the Inde-
pendent Producers Agency has taken
sEother and more effective step toward
checking the production of fuel oil
among its members. The executive
committee has announced that during
the month of September runs of oil
from member companies of the agency
shall not exceed so per cent of the
amount received in August. This or
der will of course force many opera
tors to reduce their output, and some
may even be obliged to shut down en-
tirely.
This move is not surprising, for the
agency has been enforcing its appeal
for curtailment, as far as its members
were concerned, by refusing to take
their surplus production. The cut of
so per cent in the deliveries was prob
ably decided upon at the instigation of
the Union Oil Company, which warned
its stockholders in repor: issued a
few weeks ago that operations for the
balance of the present year would
probably be more or less seriously in
terfered with, particularly as regards
expectations Of fuel oil. Both the
Union and Standard companies are
planning to resume fnel oil exporta
tions on the former large scale as fast
as the purchasing markets develop.
This will probably take some time,
for, as already stated in these, columns,
the fuel requirements of South Ameri-
can and other countries formerly sup.
piled from here have been reduced to
far below the normal, owing TO the de-
preston in commodity markets caused
by the European war.
Agency in Ldmelight.
The announcement that only so per
cent of the amount of oil taken from
members in August would be received
during the present month was not the
only event which attracted attention to
the affairs of the Independent produ-
GERS agency. recently. Member compa-
MES received Al cents barrel for their
oil sold during the month of July, an
