A, PLEA FOR YOUNG CLOVER,
In all sections where the staple grain
crops can be grown successfully clover
should be a leading crop, and should
have the most careful treatment of all
the crops grown.. It must be the foun-
dation on which these other crops rest,
says a writer in National Stockman. if
these assertions are true surely the clo-
ver should receive the courtesy and
treatment accorded to the farmer's best
friends, The fact is not disputed by
progressive farmers that their future
success depends on their skill in grow-
ing the legumes. The anxiety to secure
a catch of clover is certainly come
mendable. U they were equally desir-
ous to foster and perfect its growth
much more success would attend their
farming. If clover is not allowed to
make a complete growth it has not done
the land the greatest good. The year
it is shown is the time to care for it
and give it reran' treatment. As it is
usually sown. in the early spring, with
the small grain crops, it must be wholly
Ieft to than chances of the weather till
after the grain crop is harvested and
off the field. After this its two great-
est enemies are thelive stook and the
weeds, sometimes one and sometimes
both. These are, only exceptional in-
stances where it is wise to turn the
live stook on the stubble fields and
young clover after
theai -
gr ni,soff.
It has been our practice to sow clover
in rye and "hog" the rye. In the past
the clover has done remarkably well.
This year we turned on the hogs as
soon as the rye was ripe. They work
down the thickest rya first, and the
straw i8 so heavy that we fear some of
the clover will not get through. It
would have been better to wait till the

OOlil PAUL'S GREAT STYLE.
fie Order, w State Coach Flt or King or
Emperor.
"Oom Paul" Krueger, president of
the South African Republic, whose
Puritanical leanings and simple way
of living have long been exploited., has
astonished everybody in the Trans-
vaal. by ordering of an English concern
a magnificent stats coach, which is now
ort its way to South Afrioa..
The vehicle is of the old chariot type,.
still more or lags used by European
monarchs of the first grade on im-
portant state occasions, and it is safe
to say that nothing of the kind one-
half as imposing has ever been seen
south of the Equator.
The coach is slung on 0 springs from
"snakes" attached to its body. It is
painted black and vermilion, the colors
being picked out with thin white lines.
The hammercloth is a gorgeous affair,
sufficiently patriotic in design and
decoration to silt the most bigoted
Boer, but at the; same time suggestive
enough of imperial ostentation to move
him to wonder, if not to anger and
tears. The cloth is of pale blue and
bears on each side the arms of the
South African Republio, a duplicate of
which design is displayed) on the doors
of the coach.
When "Oom Paul" seats himselfin
this maflnificent coach, fit for any king
to ride in, he will recline oxi light blue
satin and feast his, duel eyes on. eagles
of solid silver ton inches high. A team
of eight picked thoroughbreds will be
attached to the coach when in use, and
these, oaparisoned to match themagni-
ficence
gnficence of the coaoh and its trappings,
will draw "Oom Paul" over the streets
of Pretorie, and the rough roads ot
the out -Tying districts.
The cost of the, new state coach was
£700, a sum of money, great enough to
purchase ordinary wagons for an en-
tire Boer community. Just what it
was Ied this stolid and show hating old
ruiner of the Transvaal to make this

to know. Poetsiblliy he contemplates a
brilliant coup d'etat, and under chang-
ed. conditions of officials life intends to
ride as only monarchs and directors are
wont to ride. Or, may be, as one of his
English admirers suggests, "Oom Paul"
is preparing for a visit from his august
friend and champion, the German"War
Lord." All joking aside, President
Krueger's notable concession to the
little vanities of this fleeting world
has caused no end of amusement in
England and

ous pointedmmentin the Trans-
vaal.
rye was straw broken and the clover
had made a good start. This is the way
it looks now after the hogs have been
on therye
n days. This
Y res
tra1 Y
mulch is an effectual protection against
Winter killing if the clover grows up
through it. There ars very One clover
fields, particularly on clay lands, that
give an even growth all over. Some
parts of the field will be poor and the
clover weak. These should have the
the
clover to make, ane
even farmerecial care of thwthstwith
that on the richer parts of the field,
Jut few farmers, when they begin to
• grow clover are able to top dress with
manure more than the thin places in
the fields, but by top dressing these they
make a. start towards making more ma -
i nure to top dress greater areas . If
!stock is turned on, the fields as soon as
the grain crop is off the thin spots where
a clover growth is most needed suffer
most from their grazing and tramping.
$
If the clover is not killed the growth is
checked and the plant is weakened so
;that it is in poor shape to stand the
winter. Weeds also take from the clo-
ver much plant food that it should have.
A goodly =unbar of farmers appear to
think that a growth of rag weeds does
no partkiular harm. Last, year the ob-
serving farmer could get abundant evi-
dence to the contrary. This spring the
evidence was stronger and indisputable.
I1iany spots where the land was the
strongest, and where the clover should
have been best, It was partially -or en-
tirely -destroyed by the, rank growth
of rag weeds made last year.
Farmers who allowed the rag weeds
full growth last year were anxious this
spring to get the old dry weeds off the
fields. This was a greater expense and
much more trouble thasi, it would have
been to clip the rag wends last year,
when they were so sappy that they
would have entirely, decayed before
spring. We sae many fields on which
these dead weeds had been wind -rowed
and burned. The burning destroyed
strips of clover where the windrows lay.
in one field we saw a pile of weeds
larger, probably, than the pile of wheat
straw that came off the field last har-
vest. Some of the rag weeds in our
fields of young clover last year we did
not get cut till they were in bloom -too
near full maturity to decay and disap-
pear before haying time. To get them
out of the way we rolled them down, as
we raked the hay with a sweep and re-
volviwg rake, but very few of the weeds
were gathered with it. This was much
more satisfastory than to rake the
weeds of fthe field. After the experi-
ence
xperience of last year we will never again
allow the weeds to get so large before
cutting. When we see li ton of dry rag
weeds in a pile we can much more read-
ily realize what they have taken from
the clover than when they are left
standing in the field. When the weeds
are allowed to make full growth it looks
like the farmer thinks nmdre of the weed
crop than of the clover. A fine even
growth of clover, fres of weeds, should
certainly give a farmer sufficient pleas-
ure to induce, him to cut the weeds at
the proper time. But this is only a
small part of the reward that comes
from this effort to have a clean, neat,
clover field. The clover, is doing a work
for us in smothering other weeds, and
La lrnproving the fertility and mechan-
ical condition of the soil, that we can-
not get done 1n any other tray, .

Sarsaparilla
Sense.
Any sarsaparilla is sarsapa-
rilla. True. So any tea is tea.
So any flour is flour. But grades
differ. You want the best. It's
so with sarsaparilla. There are
grades. You want the best. If
you understood sarsaparilla as
well as you do tea and flour it
would be easy to determine.
But you don't. How should
you? When you are going to
buy a commodity whose value
you don't know, you pick out
an old established house to
trade with, and trust their ex-
perience and reputation. Do so
when buying sarsaparilla.
Ayer's Sarsaparilla has been
on the market 50 years. Your
grandfather used Ayer's. at 5s
a reputable medicine. There
are many Sarsaparillas—
but only one Ayers. It
cures.
MENDING.
A very prosaic subject, no doubt, but
one with which every thrifty housewife
of limited means is compelled to deal
and which very few enjoy. In every
family, and especially where there are
children, the weekly mending basket,
assumes appalling proportions, for it is
well to remember that " a stitch
time saves nine," besides often mater-
ially lengthening the days elf useful-
ness for many a garment.
Of all things, stockings are most dis-
agreeable to mend, and too often they
receive the poorest mending. Few peo-
ple like to wear mended stockings, and
the miserable way the work is dans
is often sufficient explanation. No
one cares to subject himself to unnec-
essary pain, but everyone cannot are
ford to throw away stockings when
holes appear, so it behooves every wo-
man to learn correot mending. Most
all stockings are worth mending up to
a certain point, no matter how cheap
they are, but it will pay no one to
spend two or three hours darning great
holes in heel or toe. The cotton should
be soft and flat, and as near the shade
of the stocking as possible. The needle
should be fine, not any coarser than
will easily admit the cotton. - Tho darn -
Lag around

the hole in order that there may be no
strain on the worn places surround -
hoe it. The threads should be drawn
loosely allowing for shrinkage. It is a
satisfactory plan to put extra heels,
or linings in the heels of stockings, and
for this the tops of discarded stockings
will be found very handy ; also for new
fest and for patches. Children, and es-
pecially boys, wear great yawning
holes in their long stockings, which are
utterly hopeless, as far as darning is
concerned. Theymay
be pulled
d into
shape and a patch basted on the wrong
side. Then the ragged edges may be
cut off, turned in and hemmed, using
small stitches. If the patch matches well
and the work its done nicely, it certain-
ly pays. Such stockings may not be
beautiful, but they will do nicely for
everyday wear. If the upper parts of
long stockings are still good and the
feet are in bad condition, it is econo-
my to put in new ones. If one has no
pattern a good way is to lay the stook-
ing out smooth and flat ; then cut away
the foot, so as to include the ragged
heel and toe. Use this discarded por-
tion for a pattern, cutting anew foot,
from the upper part of another stock-
ing, and make it a quarter of an inch
larger, allowing for seams. Avoid
seams directly under the foot and keep
all of them as small and flat as possible
or they may be uncomfortable.
In buying stockings it is well to get
them of ample length in the foot and
they will wear much better. Cheap
shoes are the cause of many holes in
stockings, and one needs to watch care-
fully that the torturous nails which
make their appearance are kept filed
down. A piece of felt or cardboaad,
cut to fit exactly, if piaced inside the
shoe over the heel; will prove quite sat-
isfactory in saving the stocking.
Nothing in needlework, calls for more
skill than neat mending. Every gar-
ment, will wear in places, and then if
Me knows how to proceed it need not
be cast away. In..darning woolen goods
it is the best plan to use ravelings of
the sauce material. Cotton or silk will
never look as well. If the garment is
merely torn, neat darning, running
the threads across the tear evenly and
smoothly will be best; but if the place
is worn a piece of thin material must
be placed under the darn. The darned
places should be dampened and press-
ed dry with a warm iron, not allow-
ing it to some in direct contact with
the material.
Every housekeeper knows how, soon
bed clothes begin to show signs of wear.
They are quite an expense too, so they
should be made to last as long as pos-
sible. Mended bed clothes may not do
for best, but tihey will do very well
for the children's beds or for everyday
use. •When sheets begin to look thin
in the middle, rip them down the cen-
ter, sew the outer edges together and
hem the sides. This will bring, the por-
tion whioh has been receiving the
least wear into the centre where holes
usually first appear. If this is done
in time the sheet will wear long en-
ough to pay for the time spent in the
work.
Very small boles should be neatly
darned, larger ones should be patch-
ed. Baste a piece of tike goods on one
side ; have it no larger than absolutely
necessary and hewn it down with short
stitches. Turn the sheet over, cut away
the ragged edges on that side and turn
in and hem.. Pillow cases may be p
ed in the sense
e way, and even if they
do not look pretty, if they are white
and ,lean, the little heads will rest on
themust as contentedly.Blankets which are too ragged for
use as they are, may be made to do
good service for some time in this mane
ner: Place two or three together and
fasten with. an occasional stitch. Pro-
cure some pretty cheesecloth for a cov-
er and stitch or tie with bright yarn
DELICATE MAINSPRINGS.
Very Quick to Feel the Effects ot Heat
nal Cold.
"Mainsprings are very much like peo-
ple," remarked a watchmaker recent-
ly. "They are as susceptible to ex-
tremes of beat and cold as human
boriingt& When the thermometer is
beings. When the thermometer is hov-
ering around the freezing point or
dancing away up in the 90s the ;sensi-
tive little mainspring will succumb
just as easily to freezing or sunstroke
a8 mein.
"During the hot weather of the past
month I have received. over X100 watches
whioh required new mainsprings, and
other jewelers have had as many pr
more time -pieces wench needed similar
repairs. You see, this uncertain piece
of mechanism is supposed to be adjust-
ed. to meet the various degrees of tem-
perature, but when the changes are
great and come suddenly there is noth-
ing that can prevent thecal from ;snap-
ping. Many are made in Switzerland
of the very finest quality of steel, ab-
solutely flawless. Very often the
watchmaker can detect a bad spring
before putting it in a wattlh either
by its color or the softness of its
spring. These have been too tightly
of
instead and ns
temperedi,n ;poking,
being subjected to merely a red heat
the fire hos been brought to white
heat, thus weakening the strength of
the metal.
"The finest watches that are han-
dled byreliable dealers are put through.
a 'cooking
and freezing' process before
they are Mold, for the purpose of test-
ing their reliability, in all tempera-
tures. The watiih is made air tight.
Then a strong gas flame is turned on
the under surface of the box, and is
kept there for ane or two hours, iso
hot at the
end
t
that the watch is (e
of that time that it could not be touch-
ed with the bare hands.
"From this it is immediately taken
and put into another metallic box,
which is buried in a vessel containing
ice. There the costly watch is allow-
ed to freeze for an equal length, of
time, when its treatment ceases, and
the examination is made. If during
THIS EXCESSIVE TEST
the watch has ticked merrily on with-
out deviating a fractional part of a
second, it is put back in the case send
mp,rked 'givaralnteed for two yeas.'
The mainspring is the first piece of
mechanism that succumbs to the test.
If it survives nothing need be feared.
"Mainsprings, are, however, about
the only past of a watch that a jeweler
can not successfully diagnose. They
can guarantee any of the numberless
little wheels or pivots, or balances that
go to make up the anatomy of the
watch, but the mainspring has as yet
baSfled the most skillful makers of
watches of all countries. It is not so
much the severe extremes of the 'wea-
ther that • prove fatal to the spring
as it is the process of changing Tram
heat to cold or vies versa.
"Many people who ;heave been the
possessors of new watches but a short
time often come to me much annoyed,
declaring that they have paid a large
price for their timepiece, and the main-
spring has broken after only a week's
use.
'That is nothing,' I tell them. 'We
jewelers have them snap ill our ;eases
before the watch has even been shown
for sale.' Others imagine that they
might have wound their watches too
tight, but this does not harm it. it
is rather the jerky, hurried winding
that will eventually tell on the item-
per of the metal. Besides, every good
stemwilnder has a stop placed in the
stem: which prevents the winding of a
watch too tight.
The cost of a new mat,nspring is �
small. It is the putting them in the
labor expended that tests. It costs
from $12 to $15 to put ,a mainspring
in the finest Swiss watch, while in a
cheap American make it costs only
