MAJOR PAUL McCLOUD BACK
FROM OVERSEAS, GOT TWO
DECORATIONS.

Major Paul McCloud, who went
away to France two years and three
months ago, arrived back in this coun-
try the other day on the George Wash.
ington with King Albert of Belgium
and the Queen. Major went away as a
lieutenant and received several pro.
motions. Also he received two deco.
rations, one from the English Govern.
ment, and from his own. He rallied a
wavering English company at one of
the earlier battles of 1917, and per
sonally went through ripping barrage
without damage, and through the
whole war, for that matter, without be.
ing harmed, wearing the proverbial
charmed life through it all, though in
many danger spots.
Major McCloud was the original en-.
gineer who laid out Palisade. He
came over to visit some of his old
friends on Tuesday evening last, in
Guiding the Logans. He is looking
hale and hearty, bit worn, he feels
for the strenuous service he went
through, and detained several months
longer than he wanted. However, he
came back with four bars on his sleeve
and is proud of the service he rendered
his country. 81 would do it again,
he proudly says. america did great
thing by its men. Everybody was
treated just right, at least as we'll as
they should have been treated. They
gave us the finest ration ever appor-
toned to soldiers in the history of the
whole world. There is no doubt OF
that. Yes, the Germans were com
pletely whipped and deserved to be
1t could scarcely have been any worse
for them
Major McCloud had several personal
talks with King Albert. He says he
is reticent sort of a man, talking
very little, but is thoroughly demo
cratic and most likable Major Nc
Cloud says that the Belgian king
passed out twenty-five or thirty deco
rations while aboard ship. Any one
who rendered him an intimate service
got decoration, including the chef

At two o'clock on the morning of
October 26, the last Sunday in October,
States will be set back one hour, mark

PERFUME YOURSELF" SAID
LITTLE HUMBUG TO THE
EDITOR MAN.

Last Sunday morning Charles T
Logan was just starting out to church
when the front door bell rang. AT
twenty years of age or whereabouts. He
said he wanted to say something, sir,
If you have time to listen, sir.
"Well what is it? Be brief, as
have no time just now to listen to a
long story" said Mr.. Logan.
"Sir, if you please, you should listen
to me, anyhow. l am a law student

see, sir, I am trying to get this schol-

is it you are getting at?"

But you are not getting anywhere. y
"Well, sir, l tell you I am going to
college to get a scholarship free"
"Well, what is it you wish?"
"I'll tell you, sir, I'll tell you, sir. -
"Now, see here, do you want me to
give you something? Are you out on
a begging expedition, or what is it?'
Begging, sir, begging, sir? Nothing
of the kind. I tell you what, I'll sell

AS Mr. Logan walked away he was
Juggling at a hand nail on one of his
fingers, using a knife. When about
fifty feet away the young man who
said his name was Meyers, living in
Anderson avenue, called out,
Say, pare your nails, and don't for

All of which shows that one may

cred with thick canvas to prevent
the seed from falling through. 1t is
well also to have the floor of the barn
tight, in order not to lose any seed
through the cracks, the weight of the
crimson will cause some of it to hull
out. Crimson should stay in the barn
about four to six weeks, until it gets
through the sweat then it will be al
right to hull. Our hullermen charge
more for hulling it in the field than
they do for hulling it from the barn
in that they cannot work until the
dew is off and then they are forced
to quit rather early in the afternoon.
Yield of Seed
In 1916 the average yield of seed
in Franklin county was 6A bushels,
in 1917 the average " bushels. Our
highest yield in 1916 was 1914 BUSH
els per acre on eleven acres, our high
est yield in 1917 was 1873 bushels on
eight acres and our highest yield 1918
was 171s bushels on one acre.

CRIMSON CLOVER IN
SUNNY. TENNESSEE
Winchester, Tenn, Aug. 81.

| / ''AhSAASoVCi, 1CiAiis, aug. H1s
Crimson Glover was first grown in
Franklin county in 1880. 1t is estimat-
ed that in 1914 there Were 100 acres;
in 1915 400 acres; in 1916 1000 acres;
in 1917, the average fell off due TO
late seeding and winter injury. In
1918, the farmers of this county har-
vested $500 to 5000 acres. These
figures give this county first place as
a Crimson Clover center. 1t is be-
lieved that more seed will be har-
vested this year in Franklin than in
all other counties in the state combin-
ed. Buyers from the East have been
there contracting By the carlot. Aside
from the present stiff demand and
good prices Git is rumored that the
seed is being used in the dye in
dustry), crimson clover should be
grown for three important reasons
Winter Grazing-For hogs, sheep,
cows and calves, it is the best of all
winter pastures. Pastured until
April 10th, it gives a better yield and
prevents lodging.
| Soil Builder-Crimson clover turn
ed under is worth 20 loads of barn
yard manure,it adds 80 pounds of
nitrogan to the acre. If $50 pounds
acid phosphate are used, it improves
the soil, even cut for seed, in fact
we have found that the best wheat is
grown after crimson clover that has
been cut for seed.
Money Crop--The average yield
in this county has been seven bushels
to the acre. II. this average, is
maintained the crop will easily net
us well over 100000, and this high
figure is now being conceded by our
bankers.
How To Succeed With Crimson Clover
We prepare our land in July, pre-
fer grain stubble. We subsoil and
disc often until ready to seed. A
good time seed it just late enough
that the weeds will not take it be-
fore frost. Seed bed must be firm
and well settled. Seed very shallow,
when there is plenty of moisture.
Avoid leaving burrows and ridges.
In dry weather it is advisable to
roll with corrugated roller, rarely
advisable to use smooth roller, we
use Culti-packer.
Early seeding is best, if moisture
is plentiful. Take advantage of the
first seasonal rain in August and sow
IL to Is pounds Of seed per acre, in
creasing the amount on poor spots
and on borders of fields to Offset
damages by grasshoppers. Crimson
clover needs phosphate in abundance,
it will pay to use $50 to- 200
pounds acid phosphate, in the in
creased yield of seed and nitrogen
in the soil. Lime and stable manure
are good. All these fertilizers should
be disked in before seeding.
Pasturing Crimson Clover
In Franklin county we pasture our
crimson clover great deal. If
the seed bed is well prepared in the
latter part of July or early in
August and the season following that
is favorable, we find that the
Richmond daily register. (Richmond, Madison County, Ky.) 1917-1978, 1919-08-21

pasture is worth quite bit to the
dairyman and -hogman in his county.
During the winter months, when the
clover is covered with snow, we en-
courage the feeding of cotton, seed
meaf to our cattle and tankage> to our
hogs, however, later on, about the
middle of February to the first of
March, our milk cows and our hogs
go to crimson clover. This re-
duces our heterogeneous feeds and in
creases the production of milk and
pork to large extent. Our cows
have been known to double in milk
production and our hogs to gain at
least quarter of a pound more per
day with half as much grain. When
we tell you the story of crimson
clover, we will tell you the story of
Franklin county which reaches from
the red barren hills to the carpet of
green. You can walk all over the
county on a perfect sod of crimson
clover, and in every field you will
find it literally covered with cows
and pigs. There is no crop in this
county that yields so much per acre
in so many ways. Cattle are taken
of The crimson clover about the 9Th
to 18Th of April. When the Grim
son begins to boot it is time to re-
move the stock from the field, be-
cause after that stage if it is grazed
it will not seed.
Time To Cut Crimson
Crimson clover should be cut when
the heads slip easily,-with just a
little effort. If the farmer waits
day or two days longer than this
the crimson clover will get so ripe
that he will lose one-fourth to one
half of his crop and if it is cut very
much earlier than this-while some
of the heads are partially green-it
will be difficult to keep the seed
while it is going through the sweat,
and even after it is hulled to keep
the seed when it is sacked; then a
large number of seed will be small
and green when they should be large
and yellow. This depreciates the
value of the seed about one or two
dollars per bushel. When all the
leaves are yellow, with a few at the
bottom that are brown, is pretty
good indication that it is time to
CUT Cne CTlIlSOu. by tsuS tliuc yOu
will generally find that the heads are
brown also.
Saving Of The Seed
We cut our crimson clover with the
crimson clover reaper. We do most
of our hulling with the Birdsell Hull
Ter. The reaper has side delivery
rake which throws the crimson to one
side out of the way Of the team and
also punches it. 1T can generally be |
taken up then the following day If the
sun is hot and the seed are very ripe
when cut, in this event, If there is no
rain, you will get the very best seed.
In case you have rain 1t Is never adj
