SWEET CLOVER
Taken From a Letter Written by
Virgil Weaver, OF Falmouth,
; Kentucky.

Sweet clover is one OF the very
best forage plants, and provides
wonderful pasturage and excellent
Ray. Its value As soil renova-
tor is unequaled. This county OF
Pendle,on fifteen years ago was a
barren waste. 1t had been to
batcoed" TO death. BY some means
this plant became introduced, and
for long it was fought as a weed.
Finally the farmers began to
realize its value, and, to make a
long story short, land which was
worth from five to ten dollars per
acre at that time is now realizing
from forty TO sixty dollars per
acre. There is another compari'
son. At that time the farmers
were abandoning their farms and
seeking employment in the cities

Eradication of Certain weeds,

Chicory, dandelion. and the plan
tains. when growing in farm lands,
can be easily eradicated by clean cul-
tivation. The first two possess tap
roots and the plantains have shallow
crowns with fibrous roots. so that none
OF these weeds spread rapidly from
their underground parts. In good
farming region, especially where n
short rotation Is followed. these weeds
are not much In evidence. excepting
where buckhorn plaintain Is seeded
with clover seed. Care should be taken
that only clover seed free from the
buckhorn is sown. especially where a
crop OF clover seed is to be harvested.
The handling of weeds along road
sides and fence rows is a problem in
itself. All the aforementioned weeds
are inclined TO grow in such situations
and their complete eradication there
Is rather difficult. Usually 1t does not
pay to attempt complete eradication
in such situations. since they do not
spread to tho adjoining farm land If
1t Is we'll farmed. About all that needs
to be attempted In such places is TO

KEEP PIGS FROM DISEASE

When young nursing pigs begin to

changes of food, or feeding sour swill

to cause diarrhca either in nursing

Rees and Fruit Poilinntion.

as fruit-grower and not as n bee

crs. were more reliable and much SUI
perior to the wind. He placed panes
of glass covered with 4 viscid fluid in

was surprisingly small
