Mistaken Confidence.

Jude Johnson, an Atchisan. Kan. character. recently ran for office and out of 2,OOO men who prom iSed to vote for him The Globe says he got just 34 votes. For misrepresenting in his campaign expenses he was then sent to jail and from the cold and barren walls of his prison cell he sent out this little bit of advice to the Would-be politicians: Don't let any man get it into his head that there is a loud call for his services and that the people can be trusted. Any man who believes he is popu- lar and can win political office hands eown is an ass. or perverse fool as it were. As to my person. al condition. my wife refuses to get me out of jail, and for the first time in my life don't blame her. She it was who told me l couldn't be elected to anything. and 1 replied by saying that women know noth- ing of affairs polite. She alone was honest with me; my friends lied to me. and now regard them as slimy fishworms in the grass. ? Jude Johnson's sore spots" may be said to extend to great many others who have awakened to the true realization of things after the votes are counted.

and plowed under in the fall. When cut for hay the cutting should be done when it is about 20 inches high. and not too tough. It is very rich in protein and fine for feed, and especially good for milch cows. It will grow on wet land or dry. It will stand heavy rainfalls or drouth. In planting, the ground should be rather firm and not loose.
 Remember that all clovers are good for your land. Growing clover is like having a savings account in the bank-it keeps adding some thing. Try some of them. If yor you can you might try them all. The experiment is worth while.

kino's Portrait Yelled.

This concerns a portrait in PortH. gal There was in the salon of honor of the congregation of the faculty of medicine. at Lisbon. portrait of the former king. Don Carlos l. The per manent retention of this portrait troubled the slumber of the minister of instruction of the republic of Portu- gal. who. however, had no power to demand that it be removed. So he expressed to some members of the faculty the desire that this reminder of sovereignty should be covered with veil And this has been done. So Don Carlos l. is found concealed in darkness like the cross and the tabernacle in holy week.-Gazeta de Noticios.

DO WELL WITH LITTLE RAIN
Dry-Land Farming of Central Tunis Has Long Been a Matter of Won
 der to Other Countries.

One of the greatest and most tri- umphant agricultural beoms in the world is to be found in Africa-the dry-land farming Of central Tunis. where the rainfall is less than ten inches. This success is astonishing in the face of the uncertainty. dread. and failure that harass our own as As an evidence of local failure would cite the observations of an agricul- tural scientist on a recent e0-mife journey in the southern part O. the Great Plains, where the rainfall averaged 20 inches. In the 90 miles traversed there was but one surviv- ing settler and not even a cattle-rauch. The dry land farmers had pushed out the eattlemen, and the recent droughts had pushed out the dryland farm ers--all hut one--in strip as long as from New York to Philadelphia. Our uncertainties arise under rainfall Of 10 to 2a inches Tire Africans com placency is assured hy less than ten inches Subscriptions have recently been taken up here for people living in ar average rainfall of Is to 1S inches. Yet the compIacent success of Tunis is in the vicinity Of Sfax, where in seven consecutive years the total rainfall amounted to Al inches five and eight-tenths per year-Prof. J.

Mother 100 Years Old.

A. E. Lucas handed the News the following clipping from an Cn- tario paper. giving an interesting sketch of his grandmother who re- gently entered upon her hundredth year:
 Wyoming-Mrs. John Leacock of Watford. who is visiting with Mrs. M. Brooks. has just entered her tooth year and from present appearances is likely to celebrate many birthdays.
 She is not only in excellent health but retains her mental abilities to a marked degree, recountlng clearly and with evident enjoyment, hap penings of long ago.
 Born in Ireland of Scotch parents, her early years were spent in the old lands, living first in Scotland after her marriage and then Tn Ire- land. from where she sailed to America. landing in Quebeek, Can aea, July l2, 1856.
 The ocean voyage of six and one-half weeks. followed by the stirring events of the Mackenzie rebellion. are fresh in her memory today. while the battle of Young ss street to her seems but of recen1 Ant e aess l Herself an eye witness of the burning of Montgomery's Tavern, she has vivid recollection of her husband flashing through one of the hotels windows in a vain at tempt to quench the fire at it's first outbreak.
 Of her family of eleven children, i (among them being eight boys in succession) four are living. Her eldest son, now living in Bfigden, is in his eightieth year. Some of her children were born in Scotland and some in Ireland. Five were born in Pennsylvania, U. S.. and the remaining members of the fam fly in Canada
 Returning from Pittsburg, where her husband, in pursuit of his trade as shoemaker. had removed the family, they again came to Canada in 1882, settling in Brooke town ship, near Watford, on the farm owned by her youngest son at the present time.
 Apart from general feeling of weariness. Mrs. Leacock continues in excellent health, eating as heart l fly. she declares, as in her younger and more active days. Mrs. Lea cock has for many years been a member of the Presbyterian church at Watford.
 In addition to her large family of children Mrs. Leacock has raised three children and one adopted child, Mrs. Brooks. Five genera tions are at present alive. Longev- ity seems to be family character istic, as Mrs. Leacock's grand father attained the great age of lo8.

stammerers' Lineual Contribution.
 To stammering, according to a fav- word "teetotal" says the London Chronicle. It appears to have been first used in September, 1883, by Rich ard Turner, a reformed drunkard. Opinions differ. however, as to wheth- mering over 'totaf' or an intentional emphasizing by reduplication: and it has even been claimed that it is an old dialect word. The only certainties are that the word has nothing 0 do with tea, though a French novelist did translate "teetotaller" into tetal- tseur du the.

GROW MORE CLOVER.
It Is Splendid Paying Crop and Also
 fnriches the Soil.

We need more clovers grown on the farms of the South. The clo- vefs are legumes and have the lit tie bacteria at the roots for gath ering the nitrogen from the air and thus enriehing the soil. Nitrogen is the costliest ingredient in fer tilizers. If we grow clovers we are making portion of fertilizer while we are making hay and pas ture. If we turn under green crop of clover in the fall we are en- riching the soil much more. The tops as well as roots contain nj trogen. A clover crop weighir g 2a tons to the acre when ploWed unde, is worth as much as 10 tons of stable manure to the acre, &C., cofding to Dr. Cyril G Hopkins, and he is one of the leading soil experts of this country. There are different kinds of clover and they all have their advocates and good points.
 The common red clover is good for pasture and hay. Most every body knows about it, but it isn t grown enough.
 Japan clover, or LespedeZa. grows wild on the fields in most parts of the South. It makes a good pasture, and good hay crop when grown on good land. Stock are very fond of the hay. It is small and does not grow high. and natures for cutting in September. On good land it will make more than ton to the acre. If cut late it will re-seed itself.
 Alsyke clover is good for wet land. It makes good pasture anc 1tfkexafax.If fkoaS ,lapd is pot vel

grow.

Crimson clover is fine and makes an early spring pasture. It is one of the best clovers for the soil. It takes well drained land and will not grow where the soil is sour and needs limestone. l would advise trying it only in small way at first. Then be guided by your ex- perience.
 Bur clover is fine for a winter pasture and cover crop. A cover crop, you know, is any crop that stays green and covers the ground in the winter, and keeps the land from washing or the plant food from soaking out with winter rains.
 Bur clover can be planted in September and will do for pasture during the winter. It seeds and dies in May or June. and will come again in the fall It is a good crop to plant between the corn ana cot ton rows in the fall. If it is allowed to go to seed in the spring a crop of something else can be grown during the summer and it will come again in the fall It is a good pas ture in combination with Bermuda As the bur clover dies in the spring the Bermuda comes on, and the two make a combination summer and winter pasture without re- seeding. They are both soil build CTS.
 Sweet clover is another that has received lots of attention from ag- riculturists and agricultural papers. For many years it was not regard ed as valuable, and in some places it was regarded as a pest. It has come to stay, however, and has many advantages. Itsis one of the richest soil builders and yields well forspasture or for hay. It is said that stock do not like it at first, but if starved to eat it will then grow very fond of it. It will grow on heavy, hard and poor soils; in fact, on most any soil to. some extent. It will inoculate a field for alfalfa, and should be tried as 3 forerunner to alfalfa. The roots are soft and when dead decay rapidly and help the soil in thst way. In fact, it is one of the best crops known for enriching the soil. It can be pas tured in the spring and summer
