CUTTING RED CLOVER
FOR HAY OR SEED?

The question of whether it will pay
to cut red clover for seed or for hay
this year has been referred by F. H.
Tomlinson, fieldman of the Askov
farm accounting route, to VIM. L.
Cavert, farm management specialist
at University Farm. The following
is Mr.. Cavert's reply:
"In regard to the advisability of
leaving the second crop of clover
for seed, 1 do not believe that it is
yet possible to get any worth while
information on the probable crop or
prices on the new crop. One factor
that favors well sustained prices is
the fact that during the last year
Congress has passed law requiring
that imported clover seed be stained
in such way that it can be readily
identified. This is due to the fact
that experiments all throughout the
northern part of the United States
have shown that clover seed from
southern Europe and other warm
countries usually winter kills in
northern United States. In the past
it has usually happened that in years
when the crop is short in the United
States, there was considerable i'm
ported.
my own feeling is that they had
better be guided by their probable
seed production, also by the amount of
hay that the second crop would make.
Frequently a second crop that would
| not make over half ton of hay pei
| acre, will make an excellent crop OF
| clover seed. On the other hand a
crop that will make good crop OF
| hay frequently will make poor crop
of seed. In view of the shortage Of
hay and certain high prices, 1 would
be confident that the farmers would
be on the safe side to cut anything
for hay that would yield ton or more
to the acre. On the other hand, with
stands that will make a light yield
of hay, 1 would be inclined to leave
them for seed at least until one
could estimate whether the seed croI
is likely to be worth while.
"U. S. Farmers Bulletin 1889 OF
Red Glover Culture, gives the fol
lowing suggestions in regard to es
timating the probable seed crop:
"It is usually possible to estimate
with fair accuracy the probable seer
production by the time the plant:
are we'll out of bloom. If examination
of the field shows a uniform stand
of. a goodly number of heads with al
average setting of 25 to 80 seeds tt
the head, it may be taken as an indi
cation of sufficiently good crop tt
pay to cut it for seed, as under norma
conditions this indicates a yield of
to bushels per acre. If the head
which are turning brown show les
than 20 seeds to the head, it will
usually be better to cut the crop fo
hay, even though it is little to-
late for the best quality of hay"
"One factor that usually has BIZ
influence on the seed production, il
the time of cutting the first crop
Fields from which the first cro]
was cut early, are much more ap
to give a good yield than late Gu
fields" .....-

ROMANCE BARRED

Poor Family Refuses to Let
Son Wed Wealthy Girl De-

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
TOXIC. September 26.-Japanese
pride of caste. which caused a poor
family to refuse to permit a son to
marry a girl Of the highest social
order has created an unusual roman
tic situation, arousing much sympa
thy throughout Japan.
Gen. Baron Tanaka Is one Of the
wealthiest and most prominent Japa-
nese. He is head of the powerful Sci
Yukai party and at any time may be
the premier OF Japan. Lieut.. Mas
ayuki KoZowa comes from a poor and
lowly family, but a family of pride
in its class.
Grew Up With Daughter.
In his extreme youth he was put
out to service and became one Of the
servants of Baron Tanaka. There
the youngster grew up with the beau.
tiful Yaeko. daughter of the baron.
From the first Baron Tanaka con
ceived a liking for the boy and soon
he was almost like one of the family.
becoming a constant playmate of the
young daughter. The baron decided
to give the youth an education, so
put him through school and later,
&TCdL III TIE
army. obtained his entrance to the
military academy.
In the meantime. it was apparent
to all that. Yaeko and kozawa were
madly in love with each other. Baron
Tanaka did not object. He liked the
young man and he wanted his
daughter to be happy. But there
was a matter OF family.
Sought Boys Adoption.
The family is everything in Japan.
and the individual nothing. 1t Is the
family that arranges and permits mar
riages. Their consent il absolutely
necessary for a union. Baron Tana
ka thought he saw a way to make
Kozawa the equal Of his daughter.
He would adopt him according to a
common Japanese custom and make
him his son and heir.
The proposal of adoption was made
to Kozawa's family and an executive
session was held TO decide the matter.
1t lasted several days and finally
Baron Tanaka was informed that the
adoption and proposed marriage could
not be. that the Kozawa family, al
though poor and lowly, still had its
pride, which would not permit one
of it's members to marry out of his
class. even though that class was
very much higher.
