can be so "sour" that even alsike will
not grow. In such case there is
nothing for it but to lime or to quit
clover.
On land that has lime but is other
wise poor and lacks organic matter,
try sweet clover. 1t is no use sowing
this on "sOur" soil. 1t won't thrive.
But with lime it is about the best
clover for poor land. It will add Or
ganic matter and nitrogen and leave
such soil in better shape for the
following crops. Sweet clover seed is
cheaper than red and in many cases
a farmer could probably substitute
sweet clover for red in the rotation.
The questions involved in the i'm
portance of clover and methods OF
getting stand, use of lime, and
sweet clover are only touched on here.
Any state experiment station or the
United States department of agricul-
ture will send bulletins or additional
information on request.

DRAINAGE FOR GARDEN LAND
1t Is Advisable to Thoroughly Drain
All Soil Inclined to Contain Too
Much Moisture.

Garden land inclined to be wet
should be thoroughly drained before
crops are planted upon it. If tile

vided, the next best thing is to plant
the crops on slight ridges, so as to
get their roots above thS water table

 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of 15 points to a decline Of points on Liverpool buying, while there also appeared to be some overnig buy ing orders here from the soutfW The better feeling as to foreign exchange and reiterated reports that Germany was seeking to obtain raw materials here probably led to some scattered buying. but the demand was supplied with March selling off from g 20c to S9.o5c and July from 8 10c to g Goo during the middle of the morning under comparatively small offerings October was weak. deciinf~s to 30. soc, or % points net lower, but sesi- CTS found no encouragement in the weather news and the general list steadied in the late trading on coeAing weekend reviews of the goods situa Non attracted very little comment while expectations of continued full exports for the immediate future were promoted by the report of 29l,S1 bales on ship board awaiting clearance, compared with 14s,5i0 last week.

 Finished goods show very little change. although it is quite true that converters are less inclined to hold for the highest levels on any goods they can offer for nearby delivery.

New Orleans Cotton


 New Orleans, March 6.-The price of cotton ranged today from net advances of 10 to Is points down to net declines of 10 to Is points. May at its best traded at 36.55c and at its lowest at s6.30c. Cold weather in the belt was the main sustaining influence, and against values was the tendency among holders of long contracts to realize profits.
 The weather map showed up clear, dry and cold for the entire cotton re- zion, with freezing weather over a large area and the lowest temperatures on record for this time of the year at some localities.
 The forecast called for continued fair weather with a further lowering or temperatures, and it was quite gener- ally considered that this abnormaliy cold weather would have the effect of still further delaying preparations Tor the new crop.
