LOCATION is OF IMPORTANCE
Miles on Hard Road Than Three
on Muddy One.

From study of $50 farms in John
son county Of that state the Missouri
experiment station concludes that To-
cation is more important than crop
yield as factor in land values. Here
are the figures: Seventy-nine farms
within two miles of market averaged
in value $3.50 per acre; 1888 farms,
two to four miles from market, 5000
per acre; 126 farms, four to six miles
from market. 5000; 113 farms, six
to eight miles from market, $500, and
149 farms, over eight miles from mar
ket, averaged $500 per acre. An I'M
mentioned but important factor is con-
dition of the road. Were these farms
located on hard roads or on dirt roads
inclined to be heavy in wet seasons7
Most folk would rather live six miles
out on permanent hard road than
only half as far on a muddy road. Let
us have more light on this interesting
question.-Farmers' Review.

The plant Is not adapted to sections
with a winter temperature below IS
degrees Fahrenheit, and It does not do
well in extreme heat. In the United
States it is believed that 1t will do best
in a narrow strip extending along the
entire length of the Pacific coast. in
southwestern Arizona and southern
Nevada, and along the Gulf and ATTAIN
tic coasts as far north as South Caro-
lima. A fairly well-draiIled rich loamy
soil is desirable. but tie crop can be
grown on almost any soil which con-
tains sufficient moisture Under rather
arid conditions it makes a fair growth,
but In the dry foothill pastures Of Cali
fornia 1t has done no better than the
common toothed bur clover.
The principal value Of the new plant
is for pasturage. In the green state 1t
is READILY eaten by live stock and, as
has been said. the absence of spines in
the burs makes 1t especially desirable
on sheep ranges. This fact has been
recognized for some time In Australia
In districts which produce an abund-
ance Of spiny bur ciovers, 1t has been
found that fIseces often contain a.

Button clover is new pasture plant
which specialists In the United States
department of agriculture are now adj
vocating for use In the milder districts
of the Southwest and along the Gulf.
the South Atlantic and the Pacific
coasts. This plant will succeed, it is
said, wherever bur clover does well,
and II is to be preferred to the latter
In certain respects. Under favorable
conditions it produces more seed and
1t has no spines on the pod or bur. For
this reason 1t is particularly desirable
for ranges where sheep are pastured.
The great loss of wool occasioned by
bur clover getting into the fleece is
evidence, says Farmers Bulletin 100,
new publication of the department on
this subject, of the value of a species
with spineless pod.
Button clover is as yet but little
known In most parts of the United
States. In general appearance and
manner of growth 1t resembles the
toothed or California bur clover and
the spotted or southern bur clover. The
chief difference between 1t and these
two species lies In the burs. In the case
of button clover these are large and
spineless, while the burs of the others
are comparatively small and spiny. The
button clover pods ripen In early sum-
mer and drop from the vines. In their
ripened state they are then available
Mt any time as food for stock.

clover, a growing period with no ex-

BETTER ROADS IN MICHIGAN
Improvement of Right Kind Making
Profit of 1925 Per Cent In Wayne
County-Upkeep ls Less.

Money spent in road Improvement
of the right kind is making profit Of
125 per cent year in Wayne county,
Michigan.
The county spent 100000 on con-
struction and maintenance during the
eight years from 1906 to 1914, inclu-
sive, and in this period the assessed
valuation of property in the county,
outside of the city of Detroit, in
creased from $50, 707.0O0 to $114,54S,-
100, or S2.6 per cent.
OF this increase 35 per cent, or $22,-
100000 is credited to road improve
ment, because the assessed valuation
of Detroit increased only AT per cent.
The increase in county valuation

was eleven times the cost of road
work, or 1000 per cent profit in eight
years ON the total investment in inn
proved roads.
More than 125 miles of concrete
road have been put down by the
Wayne county commissioners since the
county system was adopted in 1906
and the roads built with the 100000
bond issue are still in good condition
and give every promise of more than

however, incubation is recommended
except ON land that has previously
grown bur clover. Mixing soil from an
old field of bur clover with button clo-
yer seed Is one of the easiest methods
OF securing incubation. Only enough
soil to dust the seed is necessary. An
other method - to scatter soil from an
old bur clover field over the area to
be seeded Immediately before sowing.

insure incubation. II no suitable soil

much as 25 to 80 per cent burs. This
means lower prices for the wool and
extra freight charges. With button
clover this trouble is of course ellmi-
mated.
Button clover also makes good hay.
For this purpose it should be cut when
most of the pods are still green but
well developed, and just before the
leaves begin to fall. IL allowed to be-
come more mature, many of the pods,
as well as the leaves, are lost in ham
ding. A supporting crop Of oats or
barley or some other grain should be
sown with the button clover in order
to facilitate cutting. There are, how
ever, number of other legume crops
that are more desirable for hay pro-
duction than button clover, so that Its
use for this purpose will no doubt be
very limited. For green manuring the
value of the new plant Is about the
same as toothed and spotted bur clio
YER
Button clover can be easily estab-
lished in pastures, for nothing more is
necessary than to scatter the seed In
the most favorable places. The work.
ing of the soil prior to sowing will per-
haps aid in establishing stand, but
except on good land this will hardly be
profitable. Ordinarily the most profit
able practice is to sow the seed broad
cast and allow 1t to compete with other
pastye plants. Where the winters are
mild, the clover should, be sown In the
fall, and If there are summer rains the
seeding should be done about the first
Of September. Early summer seeding
in the cotton states is not advisable.

they have been developing this type OF
road, although some Of the roads have
been down more than seven years.
Every mile of durable roads laid is
cutting down the cost of upkeep. Last
year the commissioners had 40 miles
more roadway to care for than the
year before, yet they spent $5,17S less
for maintenance, Notwithstanding they
have supervision over 1,245 miles of
other types of road. such as macadam
and gravel, outside of Incorporated
cities and villages.
1t is estimated that 90 per cent of
the traffic in the county is carried on
20 per cent of the road mileage and
that concrete construction should be
continued until there are about $50
miles of such roads.

BAKER ore, June 16.-Either the

mysterious property causing trout
planted" there to become hump

found for the abnormal development
Of Lake Michigan trout placed there
13 years ago, according to Eilert Eller-

stocked the lake.
For years the 5000 fry and their
descendants showed no variation from
the normal type, bl; this season Mr..
Eilerston has noted that fully half Of
tqhose caught have been camel back
ed. The hump is round just behind
the back fin. does not seem to be an
evidence OF any disease and the size
and flavor Of the trout has not been
in the least impaired
There is no possibility Of a cross
" tn another breed of fish having
caused the freak type, as the Lake
