Clover as a Manure.
This is a subject which has occu
pied much room in our papers—haß
for half a century or longer enlisted
the attention of our best farmers, and
if We are to judge from results clover
has contributed largely to the enrich
ment of the farm and as a consequence
tho farmer also. The following
valuable article illustrating its value
as a manure, which appears in the
editorial columns of the Country Gen.
tlmnan, is commended to the atten
tion of every farmer who reads the
Q-ermantotcn Telegraph : It has been
justly remarked that the red clover
plant is the foundation of successful
farming. The remark will njiply to
all portions of the country, except it
be to the neighborhood of cities where
land is worth several hundred dollars
per acre, and* where stable manure
may be obtained in abundance for the
growth of garden crops, and other
high priced products. Agricultural
chemists, as well as observing farms
ers, have given it as their opinions
that the manure of animals led on
good clover hay, is worth five times
na much per load as manuro from
straw fed animals. Taking it as
granted that the estimate is approx
imatingly correct, it is obvious that
the turning under of a green crop
which produces such rich manure,
must in itself add greatly to the fer
tility of the soil. If a ton of greon
clover is worth five times as much
for fertilizing -purposes as a ton of
common yard manure made by animals
fed on straw or timothy hay, and
with straw litter largly intermixed,
then a good crop of clover might be
rated in value about as follows: Two
ton 3 of stalks and leavs, estimated
when converted to dry hay, would be
equal to at least four tons of the
green material; and half this amount
in roots would be two tons more—
tho whole, six tons, multiplied by five
rto bring it to the standard of comomn
iimnure, would show a heavy crop of
clover to bo worth thirty tona of or
dinary yard manure. This estimate
may not be strictly correct, and it
cannot always be, as yard manure
varies much in its value according to
age, amount of straw or cornstalks
■used, and mode of heaping or preserv
ing. But let the estimate bo varied
eo as to meet the dfferent circumstan
ces, and it will still be seen that clo
ver possesses eminent advantages.—
The influence which the roots possess
ess in loosing and renderng mellow
the heavy scils in which they grow,
is one of great importance asisting as
it does the difu ion of the manure of
the leaves and stems through the soil
in the process of decay. Those who
have been in the practice of working
/heavy or claey land, can appreciate
the great difference between tho con
dition of an inverted sod turned over
flike brick clay, when nothing hut
timothy or grass hal grown upou it,
and another sod thoroughly loosend
and pulverized by the roots of clover
which have everywhere penetrated
through it. The one is like clammy,
unleavened bread; thejother like spon
gy texture of a well raised loaf. It
is in this way that clover may exert
.a benificial influence, either in the
ordinary process of cultivation, or in
favoring the intermixture of common
•manure through the soil, nearly as
great as its enriching value.
Estimating the value of a good clo
>rer crops as equal to thirty loads of
yard manure, cultivation may casly
figure which will be most economic
al applications, including tlio drawing
and spreading. On hills, or on parts
of large farms remote from stables,
the balance will be fouud to be much
in favor of tho green crop. Every
thrifty farmer manufactuers and saves
jill tho yard manure which he can; but
in -common mixed husbandry it is in
suficient of itself to keep up a high
state of fertility in all th? fields. A
rotation comprising the frequent
turning under of a growing crop, be
comes absolutely essential to a suc
cessful and profitablo husbandry.—
Such a rotation will usually be found
most advantageous if the crop is
plowed uudcr at two years of age.—
The plants will then have obtained
full sire. It may be cut for hay the
first year,and cured without becoming
wet, will not only make an excllent
nutritive feed for cattle and sheep,
"but -the manure resulting from this
feeding, as we have already remarked
will be of high value. Since tlie in
troduction of mowing machines, hay
•tedders, horse rakes and horse forks,
there is little necessity of alowing a
.crop of closer to become blackened
■sind spoiled by rain.
During a recent visit to the nurse
ries at Geneva, N.Y., we hud occasion
"■O observe the great efficiency witk
which clover manuring was Hianagtd
in preparing ground for planting
trees. Thecompaia ivelysmall quan
tity of manure furnished by the vill
age rendered tho modeof enriching by
clover an absolute necessity, and the
tvs<oeilent,healthy and vigorous growth
<of the young trees proved its great
rvalue. The crop is plowed utidjr
when in full blossom; if done soqner,
.there js t.OO much succulenco and not
•enough substance; if I'ter the stems
have become too hard and roodv, and
jdo not become so well pulverized in
decay, nor diffusion through the par
ticles of the «oil Before plowing,
<ihe crop is well luurrowed, which not
only lays the plants ilat on J&e ground
iut draws them in the 6ainedirection :
as the course of the plow, nlluwing
thesod to carry iu own crest of plants
when inverted. A log chain attach
ed to the forward part of the plow,
and to the right handle, hanging
in a loose loop between tins points,
and dragging on the ground, assists
in completely turning under the oth
erwise straggling plants. It is thr't
best not to turn them under with
a very deep furrow; and rolling the
furrows flat immediately aftewards,
prevents the drying of the leaves and
stems, and hastens decay and inter
mixture. As young trees require a
good de th of soil, the sod is again
inverted with a large plow, or to a
greater depth after the laps of sever
al weeks.
Clover is generally too thinly see
ded. There is no expenditure more
economical than the purchase of an
abundant supply of clover seed.—
One peck per acre is not too much—
we have found a half bushel to yield
an increase worth much more than
the addtional cost of the seed. But
a heavy seeding alone will not ans
wer the purpose, unless the soil is in a
proper condition.
The practice of top dressing wheat
fields with fine manure applied in
autumn, when the grain is sown is
not only highly advantageous to the
wheat, but insures the germination
and vigorous growth of the clover.—
Ihe practice of brushing the surface
very early in spring with a fine tooth
harrow; would doubtless be of great
additional use.
APPLE PIES. —Let the apples be tart
and be sure not to pare them. Halve
or quarter them and take out all the
defective parts. Stew them in a lits
tie water and strain through a sieve.
Sweeten to the taste and add some
grated nutmeg, and they are ready
for the crust which, make rich and
roll thin.
SAUCE. —Cup of butter, cup an I half
sugar stirred to a cream; yolk and
white of an egg beaten well; stir in a
glass of wine or brandy. Take off
iid of tea-kettle, and over the steam
warm it through. Tablespoon of hot
water just before'serving.
APPLE FLOAT. —Beat the whites of
two eggs very light, add some sugar
and lemon and stir in some sweetened
apple-sauce. Have ready a dish of
fich milk and put the mixture on it.
We likef it at any meal.
FLIES —.WiII not onions do as well
as garlick to keep flies away? T put
several onions in a cupboard under
our back shed, which had been much
infested with and weare delight
ed at the result. I shall stir! v season
the water with onions when next we

TKUE.—I)r. Frankliu remarked that
a man as often gets two dollars for the
one he spends informing his mind, as he
docs for a dollar laid out in any other
way. A man eats a pound of sugar and
it is gone, and the pleasure he lias
enjoyod is ended, but the information he
gets IVoin a newspaper is treasure ) up to
he enjoyed anew, and to be used when»
evnr occasion or inclination calls for it.
A uowepaper is not the wisdom of one
man or two men; it is the wisdom of the
age, and of past ages too A family
without a newspaper is always a year be
hind the times in general information
besides they can never ihiok much nor
find much to ta'k about. And then
there are the little ones growinir up with
out ony taste for reading. Who, then,
would be without a newspaper—and who
would read one regularly without paying
for it.
A gentleman called on a rich miser,
and found him at the table endeavoring
to catch a fly. Presently he succeded in;
entrapping one, which he immcadiati y
put into the sugar-bowl and shut down
the cover. Tho gentleman nsked for an
explanation of this singular sport "I
"11 tell you," replied 'he miser, a triumph
ant grin overspreading his countenance
as he spoke, "I want to ascertain if he
servants steal the sugar."
The velocity with which sound trav
els depends to a great extent upon the
tewperaturo and condition of the nt
mostphere. When at the freezing point
it passes at the rate of 303 yards per
secoud, but when the thermemeteret
tians to 6-idg. Fahrenheit, soun 1 runs
at the rate of 765 miles an hour, which
is about three fourths of the diurnal
velocity of the earth's equator.
FAITH. —Dr. Mountain, chaplain to
Charles 11, was asked one day, by that
monarch, to whom he should present a
certain a certain bishopric just then va»
cant. "If you have but faith, sire," re
plied ho, "I could tell you who," l, llow
so," said Charles, "if I had but faith ?"
' Why, yes," said the witty cleric, "your
Majesty might say to thin Mountain, be
thou removed into that Sea. ' The chap
lain succeeded.
