Winter Legumes.

Now is the time to get busy on winter
legume work, The best seed should be
purchased and the soil thoroughly pre-
pared. Such crops as alfalfa, crimson
clover and vetch should be planted at an
early date.
There are numerous reasons why the
acreage devoted to winter legumes should
be largely increased. The grazing which
may be obtained between, say. November
18th and April 18th, is of Importance to
livestock farmers in large part of the
State, but of by far greater importance is
the fact that the roots of the growing
plants fill the soil bind its surface parti-
Giles and reduce teaching to minimum,
AS fast as the plant food becomes soluble.
the roots of the growing plants utilize it
and prevent teaching by winter rains.
The fact that our open wet winters when
the lands are bare. is the largest single
factor in the depletion of our soils should
be continually stressed, but we should also
rejoice continually to know that we can
utilize our winter growing season in many
counties for the growing of such crops as
clovers and vetches
The winter leeumes not only furnish
some grazing, reduce washing and leach
ing to minimum, but also transfer nitro
Gen from the air to the soil to be used by
succeeding crops, fill the soil full of much
needed humus and furnish large quantities
of the most valuable feed. If we could
only be made to realize the full value of
winter legumes, few acres on the farms of
this State would be bare this winter.

THE HUMBLE BARNACLE

RARNACLES, which constitute a most
- curious form of marine life, do not, so
far as known, perform any important func-
ton in the economy of nature, either con-
structive or destructive.
Curiously enough naturalists assign
barnacles to that great subdivision of the
animal world which includes insects i.e.,
Arthropoda "joint-footed'). Barnacles per-
tain to that class of crustaceans which in
the order of Civibedia, term that means
"curled feet"
Barnacles are Matched from eggs. The
young in no respect resemble adults. When
the newly born barnacle emerges from its
egg it shows itself as free-swimming little
creature, with one eye, six legs, and one
shell. 1t undergoes the operation of molting
several times, and finally appears with two
eyes, twelve legs, and two Shells When it
has attained this stage of development it
roves no longer, but attaches itself to some
convenient object by means of its antennR,
secreting a sort of cement whereby it CLUES
itself quite fast. 1t is then that it under
goes metamorphosis that completely
changes its appearance. 1t loses its BIZ
valve shell and its eyes, and acquires its
characteristic feathery legs Furthermore, it
takes on an entirely new shell.
Three orders of barnacles are listed.
Members of one order are attached by the
shell directly to rocks, timbers, or other
convenient objects. Those of another order
are attached to floating objects by means of
long stalk. The barnaclcs of the third
order are parasitic upon crabs and other
marine creatures. When extended from
the shell the curled, feathery appendages
are in constant motion, serving to create
currents in the water which convey to the
curious little creatures their food, consist
ing of many species of minute forms of life.
"Sea acorns' are nothing more than bar
nacles of the genus Bdldnns. There are
number of varieties of these, having shells
of white, greenish white, pink. or purplish
color. These barnacles attach themselves
to rocks, shellfsh, the piling of piers, and
sometimes even to whales. The base of the
shell is glued fast to the supporting object,
there being no stem.
Ship barnacles are true wanderers of the
deep, since the same species are frequently
upon the hulls Of vessels proceeding from
the most remote and widely separated re-
gions. They present an odd appearance;
for the shell is attached to the end of a
flexible stalk, which varies in length from
an inch in some species to twelve inches in
others. Generally speaking, the shell of
the ship barnacle is of white or BLUSH
white hue, and the stalk is brown or slate
colored.
