PRIVATE MOSQUE OF THE SULTAN BARONESS ROMANO AVEZZAAIO H ay Kept Right in D e l age of clover or to find a substitute. “ Whether a farmer adopts a three, four, or five-year rotation,” the spe cialists declare, “ he is sure to find that his yields will decline if he does not have clover somewhere in the ro tation. Theoretically, of course, it is possible to substitute another legumi nous crop for clover, but practically clover fits so well into the agricultural practices of this section that it is the only leguminous crop having any large degree of Influence upon keeping up the productivity of the soil.” CONSUMER MUST BE PLEASED F re sh -A ir Fiend.
