BENEFITS OF SWEET GLOVER
Valuable for FertlIIxing Purposes and
Also for Feed-May BE sown Al
most Any Time.

Sweet clover is plant grown most
ly for fertilizer purposes. but it is val
liable also for feed. 1t is closely re-
lated to alfalfa because the same bac-
terra that work on the alfalfa roots
have their nodules on the sweet clover
roots.
Sweet clover may be sown any time
from April / to September Is. Pre-
pare the ground the same as for alfal-
ia and SOW ten to fifteen pounds per
acre. This plant win grow almost
anywhere, and on poor land. If left
for four or i've years, the land will
grow aSgood crop of corn. as the sweet
clover will keep reseeding itself and
the roots and tops will cover the
ground two or three inches deep with
good manure in that time. After the
first year 1t can be cut for hay, two
or three cuttings made in season.

pavement pillow for the quick and eco

cedent to track work. The plow con-
sists of heavy steel casting of suit

WORTHY SUMMER BEE HINTS
Beginner Should Devote His Opera
tons to Getting "chunk" Honey
Simplest aid Best Way.

Living In rural community and be-
ing in almost daily contact with for
mer friends, who would like to produce
honey but do not know how to go to
work. the writer is in a position to
advise, and will commence by saying:
Do not try to produce comb honey in
pound sections, because that is the
province of the expert, and the high
est attainment Of the bee keepers art,
writes A. F. Benzey of Iowa in Farm
ers' Review Rather devote your ener-
giles to getting "chunk" comb honey.
There are different degrees of skill
shown even in this simple art. and !
purpose telling of the simplest and
best way, as follows:
The bees brought through the win
ter and up to June activity, watch tho
white clover When the bees are seen
on It go to your hive, give them few
puffs of smoke, remove, say, three
frames Of brood from the brood box
(hive), replace them with frames con-
tanning foundation or comb, put on a
"wood-wirer queen excluder, put the
frames OF brood In a hive with enough
frames filed with comb to fill 1t, put
this over the other, cover and leave
the bees for two weeks. At this time
lift the cover using a little smoke. Of
course. and if you find that the bees
have commenced to cap some Of the
honey in the frames take the hive of
and put still another on full Of comb
of foundation, Replace the first hive
and go away. resting assured that you
will have big yield from that hive.
Store the frames of honey in
warm, dry place, cutting out the honey
as it is needed, but remember to leave
one-half an inch or more of comb on
top bar to start the bees next season.
This arrangement does away with
having to watch the bees and insures
q full crop Of honey.

A stranger came into our office and

he said he purchased downstairs in

him what Greek grocery. and he said
the one right under us, in Holpos'

to satisfy our curiosity we went down

While two crops season on piece
Of ground will bring double profit,
there Is, OF course. q corresponding
double amount of vitality Slapped from
the soil. and the frequent application
OF good fertilizer is imperative. lest
the ground soon become thin and un-
productive.
In the garden one may utilize for
second and even third crops the beds
In which early peas, beans, radishes
and lettuce were grown.
The same is true OF the early sweet
corn. It is advisable not to plant the
same article twice In the same spot in
succession, but rotate the products the
same as in field rotation Of crops.
A well prepared seed. bed at each
planting is almost essential. and a
sprinkling OF fine rich manure will
prove very beneficial to the growing
plants and in maintaining soil fertility.
Sow oats as early as possible in the
spring, NOW them for hay just few
days In advance Of the time they would
be reaped for the grain; remove them
from the field as soon as they are suf-
iciently cured, and stack well for fu-
ture feeding purposes.
Then put as many teams In the field
as can be spared. Stir the ground
quickly and thoroughly. Immediately

MAKING WAR UPON INSECTS
Often Found More Effective to Use
Mechanical Means Than That Of
Hand or Of Repellents.

In the small garden. hand methods
Of fighting insects are usually em-
ployed: and it is often found more
effective to protect the plant by me-
chanical means than to kill the insects.
Thus, cut worms may be prevented
from destroying newly transplanted
cabbages and tomatoes by wrapping a
piece of heavy paper around the stem
Of each plant at the time Of transplant
ing. This method is fully as effective
as scattering poisoned bran mash
about the garden day or two before
setting the plants. Likewise the
striped beetles which invariably attack
cucumbers. melons and squashes. can
be kept away from the plants by COW
ering of mosquito bar or cheese cloth
stretched over light frame or bot
tomless box made for each hill. This
is a more effective method than is the
use Of repellents, like turpentine or
crude carbolic acid, mixed with ashes
or land plaster, and is well adapted to
the small garden, where only few
mills of the vine crops are grown.
When plants are attacked by any Of
the larger insects, like tomato worms
or celery caterpillars, the quickest
way to dispose Of the insects is to
knock them on and crush them under
foot Hand picking may also be en-
ployed for destroying the eggs of
squash bugs and potato beetles. For
some Of the smaller leaf-eating insects.
it may be necessary to resort to the
use Of spray materials. In the small
garden these can usually be applied
with sufficient thoroughness by the use
OF sprinkling can or an atomizer

Usually the millet may be mown and
stacked early in September and the
field hurriedly cultivated and sown to
rye, which will make excellent fell
pasturage at a time when it is most
needed.
The wheat or rye fields may be
utilized in the same manner, and be-
ing somewhat earlier, are better adant-
ed to growing double crops than the
oats stubble.
The potato patch may be made TO
double its profits by sowing it to mil
let, cane or kafir corn after it has been
laid by. Sowing the ground to some
other product also Yields the bene-
fetal influence Of keeping down the
weed pests which always bob up after
you stop blowing the potato vines and
which, where unmolested, furnish mill
lions Of seeds for propagating rank
and troublesome growth Of weeds the
next season, besides helping to drain
the soil Of its fertility.
Or IL one win dig the potatoes from
the early patch they viii bring high
price at that season. and the ground
may be sown again to rape for hog
pasture.
Late tomatoes, cabbages and turnips
also may be raised among the potato
vines as successfully as though they
occupied plot by themselves.
