CLOVER. SEED GROWN AT
HOME; IS CALLED SAFEST

Clover seed from Italy and other
countries of similar climate produces
plants that are not hardy in Nor
thern districts Of the United States.
Yet there came unto this country
two and a quarter million pounds
of this clover seed annually from
1910 to 1914. In 1919 four and one
half, millions Of clover Of this seed
came nito the United States. This
seed is, not sold to farmers in the
condition that it comes in, because
seed-houses know it is inferior, and
will. not PRODUCE good crops. There
fore it is mixed with native clover
seed before. it is sold. This lowers
the value of the native grown clover
sed and undoubtedly. is the cause
ia. a considerable extent Of the unsat-
isfactory clover crops. I
The only way to, be safe is. to
buy from reliable firms which, will
guarantee the source Of the seed or
purchase from growers in the immedi-
ate vicinity. =,
When purchasing direct from
growers care should be exercised Ito
secure seed free from noxious and
otherwise troublesome weed seeds.

AT the Point she discharged the
sledge and went on foot to the house

herself into the house. Going to her
room, she unpacked heavy sweater

against use when they opened the
house sometimes out Of season-and

at the telephone, she called long dis

BARRING BAD BOOKS

In the deluge Of lurid literature which is swamp
ing the country at the present time there are sew
eral books, some from we'll known authors, which
are being barred from public libraries. .,
In Minneapolis, Miss Gratia Countrynan, recog-
nized as one of the most conservative and yet
competent Librarians in the country, has recently
refused to admit certain chest sellers" Among
these is Floyd Dell's "Moon Calf" and "Briary
Bush" Miss Countryman explains that there are
SO many books to which no possible exception can
be taken that can not be bought because OF lack
of funds, that there should be no argument in ia
vor of circulating books which, oesay the least.
have been subject to adverse criticism because OF
the daring doctrines propounded and the candor
with which certain subjects are discussed ,tau
Miss Countryman is far from being a prude, but
she recognizes that responsibility rests on the
person who supplies the general public with read
ine material and in this she has the defense OF
right minded citizens. N~~
