For Glover. on Thin Soil.

/ Speaking of straw calls to
mind the fact that for num-
ber OF years the best farmers in
a certain portion of Ohio have
been using straw to secure a
stand of clover, in manner
which is both unique and posi-
lively astonishing in it's results.
Independent of all agricultural
colleges or experiment stations,
some wide-awake sman in that
community discovered that by
spreading straw on his wheat
in the fall soon after sowing,
he could. the following March,
secure a stand of clover with
out fail.
1t all happened from the fact
that some keen observer whose
eyes had bsen sharpened by
years of close study of the big
book of nature, as seen between
the plow handles, had noticed
that where there was straw pro-
tecting the thin. worn soils on
the hillside the young clover
plants would hold their own
and develop, where on the same
clay spots where there was no
straw or trash the young
plants would never grow. This
led to the spreading of straw
wherever the man wanted clov-
er, and he noticed that year af-
ter year he secured stands of
clover on fields with his wheat,
where otherwise he would have
secured nothing.
For twelve years he kept this
up until one day man. from
the experiment station hap
pened to discover his "discov-
cry and gave this information
to the rest of the world. It is
ever known to fail, and =
should be followed by the man
who has trouble getting stand
# clover.

the case were it undiluted. This contact
stimulates, probably by physiological irri
tation, the amount of gastric juice Sc
creted and also assists in the churning
(or peristaltic) action of the stomach, thus
Fastening digestion.
1t has been contended that the COM
parative freedom from dyspepsia existing
among the Italians and French is due to
their habit of drinking diluted wine with
meals. This would be excellent reasoning,
except for the fact that alcohol with
meals-in any form or in any amount
retards digestion.
Perhaps, however, the safest rule to
govern eating and drinking is to take only
one thing at time in the mouth This

so that maximum amount of digestion
can be accomplished in a minimum
length Of time.
