If there is a quicker and cheaper way to improve land, and at the came time produce a profitable crop each year, than by turning under crimson clover, the farmers of the State have not been able to find it. Of course, stable manure is the best of all things, but we need not consid er that for more than a few acres. Last year the amount of crimson clover sown was perhaps double that of any former year, but it was not half what it would have been but for the high price of seed. The indica tions are that the seed will be high again this year. This large expendi ture of money each fall, when money is scarce, should not be continued fiom year to year, since such simple and economic means of saving seed have been devised. Every farmer who is growing crim son clover should arrange to save some to sell to his neighbors. We now have a cloveT seed stripper that takes the seed off and leaves the stalk standing in the field. Any farmer can make the machine at small cost. All that is needed is two wagon or old buggy wheels on an axle, a pair of shafts, and a box with sawed wooden teeth. The box is hung under the axle and is adjustable to height of the clover. Farmers Hulletin No. 64(5, give3 the details of the machine. It gives also much other valuable information concerning the value and growing of clover. Any farmer who desires a copy of this bulletin can obtain it by applying 'to hie County Farm Dem onstration Agent or by writing for it to Mr. Bradford Knapp, U. S. De partment of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. Last year Demonstration Agents induced the making of 120 of thee machines. The machines worked sat isfactorily. In a number of instan ces two or more farmers elubbed to gether in making a machine, thereby reducing the cost. The cold, rainy days of winter is a good time to make these machines, so that they will be ready for use at clover seed harvest time. Farmers that have good home grown seed this fall will be more likely to plaat than if they had to purchase seed. In several respects these seed with the chaff attached are preferable to clean seed purchas ed on the market. Ohildren"Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTOR!
