Clovek, asa Siiadk.-There is
prolttbly no other plant iu the
world of such value to the farmer
fortius purpose. It furnishes the
most perfect protection to the soil
during the lierce dry heats of the
summer. Being a constantly decid
uous plant, its leaves are perpetually
falling, and soon form a delicate
covering for shade, and easily pene
trated at all points by the air, which
is the great carrier to the worn-out
soil of those atmospheric elements
that are to enrich it. In this way
the clover plant not only contril
ntes directly to the fertilizing; of the
soil, by giving its own subsistanee
to it, but it furnishes a protective
covering to the entire ground, wmcn
encourages and stimulates those
chemical processes by which ' the
hungry and exhausted soil is recu-
pcrated from the vast - supplies or
nutriment that are held iu the at
mosphere. It becomes to the farm
er the most valuable fertilizer in the
world, as it imparts fertility to the
entire soil. I : -
