SEEDS THAT MAKE JOURNEYS
One Variety That Seems to Travel
Until It Finds a Spot Watch
Appeals to It.

The seed Of the stork's.hill crawls
along the ground by means Of its long
avn. When the weather Is damp, the
avn straightens out, but when the
atmosphere is dry it curls up again.
by means Of this movement the seed
is pushed along any hard piece Of
ground on which it may have fallcn,
until it eventually reaches soft
spot in the soil.
When such a spot is reached, the
avn serves different purpose, BY
first curling UP and then strengthening

In the ambulance. All the tests for
death were applied; the muscles were
rigid, the skin intensely pale, there
were no reneNes, there was no pulse,

sent the body TO the morgue.
Fourteen hours later physician,
come to identify the body, heard

neither pulse nor respiration. After
an hours treatment. in which cam

bath with vigorous application of a
flesh brush was given and artificial
respiration with oxygen was tried. the
pulse began TO beat and respiration
slowly returned. The following day
the woman regained consciousness

Quinnipiac Team OF Ten Fired 200
Shots In Half-Inch Bull in Cham

same you would require to repeat that
operation on four more similar targets
until you had fired a total of 20 into
the heart Of the same sized black

This is not a problem in higher

1t is simply a way of assuring you
that this is almost all it would be nee

to do in order to equal the rifle shoot

Farming
SWEET CLOVER NOT A GAMBLE

for the farmer who prefers to raise 1t.
for seed the nex year or two.
1t will not cause bloat in cattle or
is far less likely to do 50 than any 9TH
er clover. Thus far we have heard OF
no case Of bloat. :,
1t is relished by stock, though some
still cling to the idea that cows starve
on it. The fact is many cows 'starv-
ed" the past winter without it, sweet
clover alone making a crop.
1t has been proved that cattle make
as large q gain on sweet clover as on
alfalfa.
This section cannot get too much
sweet clover SO long al the land nesds
building up and cleaning up. Every
pound of seed grown in this section
should be sown locally. a
In regard to the. raising OF sweet
clover for a seed crop! While It pays
to raise It for seed at Eve THE pres-,
ent price which Is considerably less
than it was aSyear ago, the profit is
sure to be smaller in the nea future
because Of the constantly increasing
acreage sown. In view Of this fact
farmer go into the seed raising BUSH
ness. He should SOW 1t rather for
pasture and for hay, and for q still
more remote reason, namely. for the
increased yield Of other crops and for
the Improvement OF the land by the
addition Of humus which Is the life
of the soil. ,. ss
In conclusion: The farmer who is
yet a doubter IN sweet clover should
gamble, with, it on q small scale, for
seed, for pasture. for hay or for soil
improvement or for all. He cannot
lose. He will rave no grief In getting
a stand. His cows will give more
milk. His stock will lay on more
flesh. His wheat yield will be doubled.
