, BASEBALL NOTES

Harry Cooney. the utility infielder
of the Portland New England League
team, was released Saturday night by
Hugh Duffy. The signing up of Nc
Closkey of the Boston Nationals to
cover the hot corner, and with Walter
Lonergan shifted back to the short
field, left no room for Cooney. who,
although still lacking in league expe
rience, shows all the earmarks of de-
veloping into a fine ball player. Fred
Lake would like to have Cooney for
the F'itehburg team but Harry does
not seem very anxious to join drives
with the cellar champs. In all prob
ability, however, Coeney will get a
chance to hook up with some other
team on the circuit and if he does his
work will be watched with keen in
terest in this city where he has many
friends.

this crop is a very efficient one in
building up the humus content of the

may be so improved in texture by

A weed has been defined as a
plant which has not yet found its
proper use, In view Of present
knowledge Of its possibilities sweet
clover can no longer be regarded as
a weed.
The Nezperce herald. (Nezperce, Idaho) 1900-1957, 1914-05-14

Attention is called to the fact that
ssthere are several varieties of sweet
clover, Of which the common white
sweet clover and the large biennial
yellow sweet clover are the most i'm
portant. The white variety is gem
orally to be preferred where hay
production is desired. Sweet Glow
er is adapted 10 a wide range Of
soils, and while it does best on good
soils, it will make satisfactory
growth on very poor soils.
Grown on good soil and properly
handled it makes a fair quality Of
hay which may 10 many cases be
substituted with advantage for the
more valuable alfalfa and clover
hays. In actual nutritive constitu-
ents it is practically equal to these.
Il makes an excellent pasture for
cattle, sheep, horses, and hogs, and
for this purpose may be probably
grown on very poor and rough land.
For quick results in improving the
soil sweet clover is superior to most
other crops. Its ability to thrive
we'll on soils lacking in humus or
otherwise badly run down makes it
adapted for this purpose.
Like alfalfa. cowpeas, and other leg
imes, it has the ability TO obtain
nitrogen from the air by means Of
he nitrogen gathering bacteria
which live in tubercles on the roots
# the plants, thus adding much nj
rogen to the soil in which It grows.

County AgricuIsurist.

Last Saturday Prof. Mcconnell
spent the morning at "GIencairn, 2
the home Of I H. Lowrey, and ex
smined his thoroughbred stock.
The Grand Champion Stallion
'MeQusen's Pride" he said, is the
best draft horse he had seen in the
North West. The other thorough
bred stock he said was fine.
In the aftsrnom Prof. Mcconnell
went TO Golden Ridge and met with
the farmers Of that district. The
meeting was not as largely attended
as was expected, due to the fact Of
the farmers being too busy to break
array from their work Of seeding,
hence the organizing Of club was
postponed until more favorable
time.
Prof. Mcconnell has more invita-

ted plant, despised as a pernicious
weed, has very considerable agri-
culture value. II is stated that 'sas

passuring purposes it has consider
able value; and as forage crop IL
San be utilized to good advantage
where alfalfa or red clover can not
be successfully grown.''

each of the above mentioned parties
asking them to give the following in
formation for insertion in the direc-
tory:
Name and address of breeder.
Breed handled.
Number of registered males in
herd.
Number Of registered females.
Number of male offspring for sale
each year.

sale each year.
This directory will be issued with
the purpose of giving publicity to our
