ernoon, after a hearing in the matter
that a guardian should be appointed
for the estate of s. T. Northcutt, of
Turner, but he has not been named yet.
The guardian will nave the care of Mr..
Northcutt's estate under the direction
of the county clerk but will have no
control over Mr.. Northcutt personally.

tion on account of the declared inten-
tion of Mr.. Northcutt to marry Mrs.
Louise Francis, Of near Salem, and the
declaration of Mrs. Eva Palmertom, the
daughter Of Mr.. NOrtheutt, that Mrs.

Upholds Individual Right.

"The dark spectre of Puritan
ism is beclOuding the sun Of free
dom. 1t is the lot of the present
generation to defend the sOver-
eighty of the individual against
the tyranny of the majority"
With these words, United States
Congressman Richard Bartholdt,
of Missouri, prefaced a declaration
here today that Carl Schurz, Emil
Pretorius and Carl Daeuzer would
find a new fight for freedom to be
waged if they were living in this
epoch.
MIR. Bartholdt spoke at the un.
yelling oil a monument to three
German editors, erected in com
memoration of their support of
the Union during the war between
the states.
"lf it is right for society to con.
troll the tastes and regulate the
personal conduct of men in one
respect it would be considered
right in all other respects. We
hold, however, that the only part
of the conduct of anyone, for
which ne is amenable to society,
IS that which concerns others. In
the part which concerns himself,
ms independence is, of right, alb
solute, the congressman declared.

Crane and Farmers Union.

The Grange, which was once a
power in our state, still holds full
SWAY in New England, and is the
chief among the farmers clubs or
associations, owing its long life
and strong hold to the fact that il
has never, in any way, admitted
the interference Of politics, local
or national, and has actively en-
gagged ia every enterprise that
contributed to the welfare and
progress of husbandry. Under its
influence combinations for mar.
keting of products have been et-
fected that protect them nom the
brokers and assure them the high
est prices, without individual eff
fort or excessive freight charges.
In the matter of purchases for the
farm, it does not interfere, having
learned by experience that buyers
are amply able to protect thelI
own interests and personally can
frequently obtain bargains not
accessible to the masses. They
have established grist mills, dai-
ries, cheese factories, canneries,
tanneries and many other local in
dustries that not only assure them
highest prices for ther products,
but in many instances pay hand
some dividends. In this region
the Farmers Union, which is
probably a better institution in
many respects, has succeeded the
Grange, and would be a wonderful
power for good if it would organ
ize local industries as the Grange
has in New England states, par
ticularly in the way of mills, dai
ries and %canneries. There should
be a Farmers Union grist mill in
every neighborhood. - Aberdeen

Sweet Clover or Meuit0tus.

The Kansas Experiment Station
in a recent publication makes it
plain that mellltotus, a hitherto
neglected plant, despised as a per
n%icious week, has very considera-
bic agricultural value. 1t is stated
that ''as a soil improver it is un-
excelled; for p%asturing purposes it
has considerable value, 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 mosr important.
The white variety is generally to
be preferred for farm purposes, al
though 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 on
good soils, it will make a satisfac
tory growth on very poor soils.
Grown on good soil and proper
ly handled it makes a fair quality
of hay which may in many cases
be substituted with advantage for
the more valuable alfalfa and
clover hays. In actual nutritive
constituents it is practically equal
to these. 1t makes an excellent
pasture for cattle, sheep, horses
and hogs, aud 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 other crops. It's ability to
thrive well on soils lacking in hui
mus or otherwise badly u down
makes it especially adapted for
this purpose. Like alfalfa, cow
peas and other legumes, it has the
ability to obtain nitrogen from
the air by means of the nitrogen
gathering bacteria which live in
tubercles on the roots of the
plants, thus adding much nitrogen
to the soil in which grows. When
plowed under for green manure or
allowed to remain on the land this
crop is a very efficient one in
building up the humus content OF
the soil. The large roots, which
penetrate deeply, break up the
lower layers of the soil and add
!, much humus thereto when they
decay, thus improving the physi-
cal condition of the soil to a con
siderable depth below the depth
of blowing. Sandy as we'll as
heavy clay and hardpan soils,
which would not otherwise pro
duce satisfactory crops, may DO SO
improved in texture by growing
sweet clover for a few years that
they become quite productive.
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 re.
, garded as a weed.
