A THE CENTRE DEMOCRAT, PELL tony PA, FEBRUARY 1, 1900, ——————— - ——————————————————— TALK ABOUT CLOVER. Many Otherwise Well « Informed Farmers Entertain Erroneous Ideas Relative to This Plant, Western farmers have learned that elover is a necessity for them, but it has been only a few years that this fact has become apparent and many ef them cannot write on this subject without exposing their ignorance. In an article under the title “Best Pas. ture Grasses,” 8. Il. Tolley, of lowa, begins with clover, which is not a grass, and says of it: “Clover is all right for pasture, but if stock is al lowed to feed on it at all seasons, there must be a large surplus left on the ground, or the pasture will soon be exhausted. Stock of all kinds like the bloom and will eat it so closely that no seeds can form, and hence it will soon run out, because no seed is left on the ground to propagate.” Part of this is true, Stock are fond of clover blooms, but it is only the second growth of the ordinary red clover that produces seed. It is non- senso to suppose that clover seed fall. ing on the ground in fall can grow, unless the clover sod is plowed in the spring. through the soil, germi for many years after, as we hi to be the fact ps of clover seed have been and will seen on land where ere It uld be grown, as 1% to seed » surest means to destroy all the that field for another lover and the mam me lover, is not so generally known that allowing clover year, r pea which bear the ull eron, d 1 s.

In this way the coarse stalks are so broken in pieces and mixed with the leaves and Imma ture fruit that nearly all will be eaten, It is doubtless the beat of the legumes for the silo, as it can be more easily handled for the cutter than plants like clover or cow peas. There are a number of varieties, differing maloly In the time of ripening and the color of the seeds, The Garden Pharmacy. The farmer's garden should be pot only his larder, but his pharmacy as well. It ean be made to grow his food. It may be made to grow his medicines also. Perhaps It is better to say that, in growing the farmer's food, the gar den may be made to produde food that shall make medicine an unnecessary thing in his family. This may be done by growing vegetables and fruits that are distinctly health-preserving as well as nourishing. It is hardly pos- sible to find a garden vegetable that is inimieal to the consumer, although one person may not like or be benefited by one or another vegetable that is pleas mot and beneficial to another.—~Farm- ers’ Review, When you go into the horse pasture, take something In your pocket: for young and old, for they seem to say “thank you," "and “we love you."
