The roadbed had fallen Into such a bad state of repair, however, when Mr. Allen purchased it that traffic had been suspended. He has rebuilt the old roadbed and is rapidly extending the line.

Many grain growers have objected to growing clover because they had no use for the hay, but since learning that a crop of seed at present prices Is worth more than a bumper crop ot wheat, they are growing clover In ro tation with small a-ralna and thus largely Increasing yields as well as fertility to their soils We believe all our readers now un derstand the value of clover because correspondents for the Agriculturist have made a specialty on the auboect.
