TIME TO CUT SWEET CLOVER
Much Depends on Whether Crop 10 In
First or Second Year-Avold
Coarse and WoolIy Stems.

The time to cut sweet clover for
hay will depend largely upon whether
the crop is In its first or second year
of growth. Generally speaking, only
one crop can be obtained the first
year, and this should not be cut until
the crown sprouts begin to show.
This cutting may be close, as the plant
will have sufficient time to obtain q
certain amount of growth ere the cold
weather arrives and thus be able to
Withstand the winter.
During the second year of growth
two or three crops Of hay may be
obtained If the proper precautions are
exercised. The first cutting should be
made just previous to the time that
the plant begins to bloom and should
be done so as to leave few branches
and leaves on each plant. II out close
at this time the majority of the cut
plants will be killed. The second cut
ting should be done in exactly the
same manner as the first, while the
third and last cutting may be made
close to the ground
1t is somewhat difficult to say Just
when the second and third cuttings
should be made, owing to the varia-
ton in the plant growth, but as a
rule the crop should be cut sufficiently
early in order to avoid coarse and
woody stems.

prepared by the United states Depart
ment of Agriculturel
For the past two years increasing
attention has been given to sweet
clover as forage plant. County agri-
cultural agents In several states lat
year gave the crop some attention in
an experimental way. Those In Kan
sas and South Dakota were particu-
larly active, and the results were SO
satisfactory that the area seeded this
year has been enormously Increased.
A report from Allen county, Kansas
states that more than 1000 acres were
seeded In that county this year. Last
year a farmer in Clinton county, Iowa.
conducted an excursion to a farm on
which Is grown annually 60 to 100
acres of sweet clover for hay and pas
ture on land worth more than 100
per acre. On June and 10 this year
two Illinois county agents joined In an
excursion to a 30O-acre sweet clover
farm in Ogle county. Illinois. One
county sent 81 automobiles with 1O9
farmers representing as townships. A
total of As automobiles made up the
train. Among the interesting things
done on the farm visited Is the pas
turing OF go head OF cattle on 40 acres
of sweet clover. The clover 10 also
used successfully as ensilage.

On cold days you have warm clothes,
the loaf is on the table and the fire
is burning on the hearth. And the
material prosperity will continue to-
morrow and probably through all the
tomorrows OF your mortal life. And
then there are the dear ones and the
friends who love you.
This is all true; but stepping on
the porch for minute. l see poor
old horse standing hitched to laun-
dry sleigh. He Is shivering and I'M
blanketed. At this moment there
comes a little boy. not too warmly
clad, who wants me to buy loaf OF
brown bread. His mother is widow
and does ''homebaking' and tries in
this way to keep her family together.
And then l have learned that even
In this so-called prosperous city there
are large number Of people out Of
work who rely upon their daily wages
to keep the loaf on the table.
Now If the shadow falls across my
heart, am l pessimist? Does 1t
make my loaf taste sweeter that my
neighbor has none? Can / be thank
full for my breakfast when SO many
of my brothers and sisters, far bet

choice lettuce that can be raised In a

one afforded a constant supply of
fresh salad material all the summer
season.
Onions of several varieties were
raised, and those that were planted
in the fall afforded an early crop be-

In July the beets and cucumbers

STATE FOREST BOARD
TO SHOW TREE CARE
Best Manner of Keeping Wood
Lots TO Ee Pointed Out In
Trenton Fair Exhibit.

No exhibit at Trenton Interstate Fair
will have more practical value than
that to be arranged by the New Jersey
state forest commission This will
show the manner in which wood lots
should be kept to get the greatest value
from them. In referring to the dis
play to be made at the Trenton Expcsi
ton from Sept. % to Oct. 2 State For
ester Gaskil said:
Last year the state forest commits
sion undertook to show at Trenton
Fair something of the Importance of
New jerseys forest interests by an ex-
hibit that was partly set up outdoors
and partly housed in tent
1.-THE interest awakened justifies an
effort to make forestry feature of
succeeding Fairs. On large plot near
the machinery field will be arranged
an exhibit intended to demonstrate
from year to year the more important
features of forestry in the state.
''The chief effort at present and for
long time to come will center around
the suppression of forest fires. Until
they shall be suppressed there can be
no forestry. That they can be sup
pressed is proved by what has been
done already. In developed agricultur-
al sections the fires are much less prev
alent than they were The states eff
fort is to make farms everywhere alb
solutely safe from fire.
''The close relation between forestry
and farming will be strongly empha-
sized and opportunity given to the
farmers who own r-oodland to learn
how to manage 1t. The value of tim
Der as one of the crops of well man
aged farm is scarcely recognized. I'm
like other produce, wood has no par
ticular harvest time, but can be held
without loss until it is convenient to
market it.
Forest planting is of less impor-
lance in New Jersey than in many
states, yet the exhibit will show how
to do it and what to plant.
Public and individual interest in
shade trees will be stimulated by liv-
ing examples and by information in
pictorial and printed form.
This exhibit has for its sole object
the benefit of the people of the state.
No one expects to make money out of
1t, and there will be nothing to sell
On the other hand, there will be for
esters and fire wardens in constant at
tendance to give information and adj
vice." Trees in the grove on the
Fair grounds will also be marked, and
Mr.. Gaskill and his assistant, j. o.
Hazard. will point out by concrete ex-
amples just how the limbs should be
cut, those that should be removed and
give other information. They will
gladly answer any questions asked OF
them.

Her Art Not Appreciated.

Vanishing day at the Royal academy
is always an important and interesting
function. Canvases and panels that
have been thirsty enough to absorb
the oil from the whole or portions of
the pictures painted upon them have
once more the luster of their first
painting restored by these pick-me-
ups.
Members of the years hanging com
mittee are always at hand on these oc-
casions to consider suggestions and
complaints about their recent labors.
The chief complaint this year was by
a lady who found her work had been
hung horizontally instead of vertically.
Unkind friends cautioned her that pos
sibly it had been accepted on the hori-
zontal understanding.
