sERBIA's POSITION CRITICAL.

THE position of the Serbian armies at the present
time is not at all an enviable one. Hemmed in
on all sides by mighty forces the serbans are
threatened with destruction and much is felt
for them at the present time. There is hope for the
Serb forces-that is the speed with which England and
France can send troops north from salonka and thus
relieve the pressure from the Ausrians and the Germans
in the north and the Bulgarans in the east but just
how fast these troops be sent forward is hard
say Considerable concern is felt by the Allies over
the present situation and every effort is being made
aid the Serbs in their fight.
1t won't be long now until old King Winter gets his
hand in on the game and the Allies and the Teu.
tons both seek to make big move before winter
puts an end to hosties Off awhile.
The present outlook is not at all encouraging for
peace in the future and it that the world
must endure the war for some time to come.

TO OBTAIN A GOOD
STAND OF CLOVER
Crop viii! Not Succeed on Poorly
Drained SoiI-Lack of Fer
tility Reduces Yield.

Observations indicate that failure
to obtain a successful stand of clover
is due to a number of different causes,
any one or any combination of which
may react very unfavorably to its
growth. The primary causes of clover
failure appear to be due to depletion
of the humus content of the soil and
soil ''acidity. Glover will not succeed
on poorly drained soil Lack of fer
tility reduces the yield in some Sec
tions. In the spring grain sections
tibet nurse crop should be seeded from
one-half to two-thirds the usual rate.
When full seeding of the nurse
crop is made, and this is especially
true of oats, the greater portion of
the soil moisture is used by the grain.
The clover plants thus become weak
ened and when the grain is cut they
are killed by the hot sun before they
have time to recover.
Alsike clover does we'll on soil
which will no longer grow red clover,
and where moisture is sufficient it is
recommended that alsike be planted.
Sweet clover or soy beans are very
good soil renovators, and they may re-
place red clover in the rotations until
the soil is in such condition that red
clover will succeed.
