Crlmion CloTer for Jlay or Meed. ; y
Crimson clover (trifolium Inoarnatnnl)
is known' under a.- rariety of commoB
names Annual, German, Scarlet, and
Italian, i This clover is easily (?rown
and should come into quite greneral use;
It is an annual, and consequently mnst
be re-seeded for each crop - which
makes it important to "gTow seed at
home. . Seed may be sown from July to
October, but the land should always be
well prepared for it, or. if not, it should
be well shaded, as under a growth of
cow-pea tinas, or, -'in a corn or.: cotton
crop, where the seed should be sown
when the crop is laid by. Urowniu
this way it may be of great service, in
enriching and holding the land from
rouuViinT Its irrowth is made ia the
ool. wet cart of - the year; and it is
ready to be made into hay at a Season
when planters are'iwaitin? for cotton
to vegetate for first working. ; This is
often . dry time, and the hay con be
quickly an d easily cured.,; -' It may of ten
be best to sow thiselover with oats, rye,
or barley, and cut all for bay in April
or MayvAr..'A
- This clover will thrive on land fin
moderate conditton, bntHUe some oth:
er forage plants; will pay best w.here
trivm a. rich soil. The ' composition of
nrimaon'clover hav shows it to boa
highly nutritious food. It is "so rich
that for any use it may . well be fed
with some such fodder as 6traw, mcad
n hav. or cotton seed bulls. : When fed
for production of milk, the addition of
corn, or corn and oats, will temd to add
to the good qualities ot tn proauct.

In maturing a crop of seed care should
be exercised . to nail out. weeds and
foreign plants and so - keep the seed
clean. Let the elover get ripe,' but not
so as to shell out too freely before ent-

CtoverSeee DistxibaUd la 1893.
The Experiment Station having on
band last rear (in 189S) Crimson clover
seed which had. been grown on the
experiment farm, ottered through the
press of the state to distribute to ap
plicants wbo would pay transportation
charges and who would make careful
trial of same, enougn seed to plant i-o
acre. There were 1598 persons wbo ap
plied for the seed, far more tban the
station eoald supply, unfortunately.'
Indeed a quantity of seed had to be
purchased to send as many as was sup
plied. .The first names received
were- seat the seed. To others full ex
planation was given as well aa at what
points the seed could be procured. Be
plies regarding the test are now; com
ing in and tend to - show that wide
spread information baa been given in
rstrard to this most valaable forage
crop, and much interest baa been crea
ted m its cultivation.

' Just now the Experiment Station la
receiving a lot of varied bat interesting
information in rtlstion to growing this
platft from the farmers to wtiom seed
was distributed last year. Brief direc
tions for every step in growth of the
crop were sent with the seed and the
call for this information contains spe
cific inquiries as to the various process,
a which help in studying the effect of
preparation of soil in dixterect lections
of tne state.

The N. C Agricultural Experiment

posed to distribute a quantity il seed

valuable forage plant. It ia of upright

the sir to the soli in which it grows. It
is planted in bills or drills 1-1 to 3 1-3
Xeet apart according to richness of soil,
and 15 to 34 inches apart in the row.
It can be planted any time from March
to July, either alone or in the corn row

usually planted in each bill. Soil suit

is tbe same aa lor corn, n ben planted
for corn both crops can be ensilaged

Why submit to heavy losses from this
disease ? Up to April, 1834, this disease
had not been on the Experunont i'urui
to our knowledge.' Early in that month
a hen became-.sick and dumpish- with,
dark comb; all food and water refused.
' 1 1 was thought useless to treat this case,
but Epsom sails were administered and
this was followed with ooplons water
ing put in the mouth with a spoon. The
hen was placed in a warm, sunny place,
isolated from usual runs, and recovered
very. slowly.. v';'P''."l:-. v-sfii.?'-.-
Another hen died in, few day
and then another ; and' a ; cock
erel, and so veral persons - who had
had .experience , with, cholora, pro
nounoed this disease " to be oholera.
The ben aud cockerel died near' night,
and next morning two other hens were
dead and eight more were m different
stages of the dlaease. ' .. "'. '
" Treatment was began at once, ' Two
bens were killed and. burled as those
previously - dead hod been. , The . six
were brought out into the sunlight
and given salts and water. .
' The house and yard were thoroughly
disinfected with 1 pint of strong sul
phurio acid to 8 gallons of water, as
suggested in poultry books. The hen
themselves were sprayed with . this.
Their drinking 1 water was charged
with carbolic acid (lteospoonful to half
gallon water) and asafualida was pnt in
thoir food at the rate of 1 heaping
tablcsppon to tho food of 80 chickens,
. Tho next morning six hens could not
get pff the roost, though all; but two
hod gone up as usual the night pre
vious, - after- their 'treatment. '-'These
-were treated as before and pnt outside
the yard. Before night ail but four
bens were ' walking about :' pecking
grass. After three, day of isolation
these - four . were returned to. the
yard cured, and all bave bees in good
health since: Six bens and a cockerel
bwera lost before the health of the flock
was restored by the treatment as given
'above. v - '-':
, Had we known the disease at first, it
Is doubtful if a single bird need to have
been lost. Promptness to disinfect and
treat the sick birds will save many
losses. The doses of salts,' not before
recommended to my knowledge, doubt
less helped rid the birds of the cholera
bacilli sooner than if it bad not been
given, and so. hastened the eradication
of the disease. The asafcctlda acta as

lulheSdl Meant oas may be said
to bring llie church Into oloner liuch'
wltD the advanced culoms ami utili
ties of the period, The rtilread, tbe
telegraph, the mail, hS telephone and
the press ara recognised as necenslties
every day In tb week, hy the great
mejontv of people in both private and
biisloeas life.. The isane fn tha Sadie
tleans case wis whether , the church
should permit it irlembers to recognize,
employ arid serve the concomitants
of modern life ou the first day of ibs
week, or ; whether , it should take a
taod on (he other haud, and pro
nounce sinful even necessary work
performed on 8undar.
'The outonme Is a v'otory fjr liberal

concerned, and is an eyidenoe of broad
tnfndfdnass tbat must oomuiend Ittelf
to laymen, as well aa to iba liberal
nhurebmca. , , .v
The case, In a nutshell, was this :
Miss Meaos was employed In . tbe tele
phone exchange at Columbia, 8.. 0.
Ber dutivs required that she should do
a few hours a oik on Sundays, f She
WAS a tnD)ber of th 8coud Preaht
lerlan church, fultLful iu hrr. rellglou
duties and of Irreproachable character.
Tba minister and elders of the church
of which she was a member did not
ihluk It compatible with her chrif tain
proff tslons or with the discipline of
tha cburoli that she shoulj work on
3iin(lays, . .
i. They endeavored to L.duo her to stop
working on that day, , but as that
would have involved . the . giving
up of her sttuAtioo, tbe income from
which aha needed ,for her support,
she declined lo heed tbrui. The nitit-
ter Was brought beforo lb church sea.
sloo and the yourg, woman as ex
palled from meiuWsliln. Her sister
and molhor-lu-law. memlie s of, tha
same church, appealed to lb Charles
ton Presbytery, the .body governing
tbs churches of tbut denomination . In
tb district la which ; Columbia 1
situated. : The Presbytery sustained
tb soi ion of the church session. . The
appeal was (bar) can lad to the synod
of South Cat olio a. That body revers'
ad tjhe aotloD of the Pr.byery and the
session and ordered Miss Moa;i- nmtor
ed to membership. This . V e session
failut) to , do, aad . tba Charlei t)i.
Preshyteiy appealed to t'ie general as
sembly. The appeal, aa told In our
dispatches, was not euatataed, and th
assembly ordered that the judgment of
of tbe synod be curried out.
