CLOVER SEEDING AND TOP
DRESSING DEMONSTRATIONS

A number of demonstrations are
being arranged in Sussex County to
show the effect of various methods of
clover seeding and Of top dressings of
nitrate of soda on grass and wheat.
In the seeding tests, the plan is to SOW
half an acre with the seed on top of
the ground and a half with the seed
narrowed in. The narrowing has in
other years given the better results,
and without serious injury to the
wheat. In some cases also lime is used
on half the acre plot, to show what
effect it may have on clover and wheat.
In the top dressing demonstrations
nitrate of soda, at the rate of $50
pounds per acre, is to be applied to
grass and wheat during April. There
is little doubt of the benefit that may
be expected on the grass. Many farm
ers think that while nitrate may give
heavy straw in wheat, the heads will
not show a profitable increase in pro-
ductivity. It is hoped that in some of
these demonstrations the wheat may
be harvested carefully enough so that
some light may be thrown on this
question. AS soon as the whole list
of demonstrations is completed the
names of the owners and the locations
of the farms will be announced
through the press, in order that those
who are interested may make their
own observations and comparisons.

THE GERMAN KNOTWEED IN
STRAWBERRIES AND CLOVER

There has been increasing difficulty
! in recent years in some parts of the
county in keeping berry patches and
crimson clover fields free from the
German knotweed, commonly known
as "moss." This weed is thought by
many to exert some poisonous infiu-
ence on surrounding plants, since
berry and clover plants kill out near
the knotweed, even when there ap-
pears to be no serious competition be-
tween the two in regard to either roots
or tops.
The knotweed is not a native plant,
having been imported from Europe
MANY years ago. 1t is most likely
that it arrived with scarlet clover or
other imported seed, and it has been
holding its own very well ever since, if
indeed it is not being annually re-
newed in this country by the bringing
in of new supplies of farm seeds.
Farmers report that it tends to ap-
pear in the fields after a crop is laid
by in the summer, and in clover and
wheat in the fall. Early summer cul-
tivation appears to hold it in check for
the time being, but there seems to be
enough seed in the soil to keep up the
supply of young plants after cultiva
ton ceases. Although this weed has
been little studied, there are a few
precautions that would seem advisable
in attempting its control.
1. Examine clover seed very care
fully to see if seeds of knotweed are
present. Foreign seed is most likely
to have such impurities, but under
present conditions native seed is also
apt to be dangerous. If you can get
of the weed seed on your
own place or on a neighbor's place,
keen some for comparison when clover
seeding time comes around. You Will
find plenty of seed on and under the
plants at this time of year.
2. In case you are growing clover
for seed, as many will be doing this
year. try to clean out the weed before
the clover gets too high. When knot
weed is present only in certain spots,
as is often the case, it will be no hard
task to clean up these spots. 1t is a
little more difficult to remove all the |
seeds at this time than earlier, because |
nanv of them have already fallen to
he ground. If the weed tops are not
allowed to get into the hay or seed
,rop. there will be less danger of hav-
NO impure clover seed or Of spreading
weed seed in the manure.
8. It will probably pay to hoe
young berry plantations by hand, if
necessary, especially in late fall, when
he lnotweed is going to seed. The
of the fall and winter seed
;hould 90 far toward making clean
,atch the following spring. Badly in
ested old patches may as well be
,lowed up.

VICTORY MAY MEAN DEFEAT

The Methodist churches of both de
nominations and the State Grang,
have very emphatically condemned
the Delaware Legislature for its atti
tude on liquor legislation. No dOubr
other churches and organizations share
the same views, but have not had oc-
casion to express them. While the de.
feat of the Hill bill may have been a
temporary advantage to the wholesale
liquor dealers, the victory is likely to
cost them dearly in the long run. Per-
haps the bottle law and other such OBJ
jectionable legislation of years age
had much to do with the success of
the movement for local option in Del
aware and the going dry of the lower
counties. Since Kent and Sussex are
dry territory, it is far better that
speakeasies should not be encouraged,
and the best way, if not the only way,
to break up speakeasies is to regu-
late the shipping and bringing in of
liquors from outside of these counties.
The Hill bill limited the quantity of
spirituous liquors that could be
brought or shipped in to any one per-
son in a month to one gallon, and malt
liquors, such as beer, to one case
in one month. This limit is most lib
eral, and any person who wants more
wants it for other than personal use,
and usually to sell. There is no use
to disguise the fact that
the opposition to the Hill bill was al
most solely in the interest of the
wholesale liquor dealers, who want to
ship in as large quantities as they
can, and since it cannot be sold law
fully, want it sold by the speakeasies.
There were, no doubt, some members
of the Legislature and others who had
other reasons, but not one of them but
knew when he stopped to think that he
was serving but one purpose, and that
TO aid the wholesale dealers to sell to
History is likely to re-
peat itself, and many who were not
actively interested in Temperance, and
many who hesitated at Statewide
II nationwide prohibition, will resent
such domination of the liquor dealers,
md what seems for the time to help
hem and their friends is likely to end
n a dry Delaware, both as to manu-
acture as well as sale of liquors.
