As clover ie the'onlei crop which," while giving a profitable harvest still serves' to .enrich rather then to iemoverish the soil, it is evident that clover should take a proneinent place in August rotations in this country..

It May be taken for granted that Eng- lend'e 'rivals en the Continent do not look at the matter in this light. The best and most powerful of Bri- tish ships. now in commission are the .Moditerraneari fleet or in -. MORE DISTANT WATERS, ' while still more powerful ones . are building or are authorized. A glance at the list of British ships shows how absurd these critics become when they compare unfavorably the navy of to -day as, illustrated at this coronation teview with the navy of 1897 as illustrated at the Diamond Jubilee review.1 ' Taking into account only modern ships, that • is, ships which have been authorized and built sinee the great . quinquennial „ Programs ca 1889 were made, England has built or is building 46 first-class battle- -ships-, 28 armored cruisers, 19 first- Mass protected cruisers, 47 second- class cruisers and 19 third-class. fn. the last five years she has put to San five 14,950 -ton battleships of the 'Caesar class, six 12,950 -ton battle- ships of the Canopus 'class, five 15,- 000 -ton battleships of the Fermi- dablo class, eight '11,000 -ton pro- tected cruisers of the Diadem class4 aiM five 12,000 -ton armored cruisers cif the Cressy class. In addition to these she has now building three 18,- 350 -ton battleships of the King Ed- ward class, live 9,800 -ton armored bruisers, oe the Suffolk class and six 10,200 armored, cruisers ,• Of the neenpshire °lase; and the Is cam- plating three 15,000 -ton' battle- ships of the Venerable class, i. esx 14,000 -ton battleships of the .Albe- merle class, four 14,100 -ton arm- erect cruisers of the Drake class, °lie 12,000 -ton armored cruiser and five 9,800 tons each, making in all 12 -- battleships and 21 armored' cruisers, which wiil be in commiesion within the next two or three years. A comparison. of these with the navies of her rivals shows that the Mother Country is not only keeping pace with France and Russia, but up to to the present has been keeping pace with France, Russia and Ger- many combined. In 1897 England had 13 first-class battleships which DATED SINCE 1889, and 1.3 first-class cruisers. France had four first-class battleships, two second-class and one cruiser. Ruse Ma had three first-class battle.ships, three second-class and two cruisers. Germany bad four Erst-class battle- ships and one' first-class eruiser. Thus five years, ago 'England:shad tivo -more first-class modern ships . than, the three powers combined., five toss .seeond-class battleshipe and nine more firet-clasa cruisers. ,Sfrice 1897 England . has comenissioneell'16 .

But in the matter of ships building and authorized, Eng- land is falling behind her combined rivals, In this- class ehehen • 14 battleships. of 212;000 tone and 28 erst-class cruisers of 250,000 tons.
