CLOVER AND CW)VEB SEED A8 A CROP O BEEN FEED TOR CI ROWING STOCK Sol. Durbln, one of the largeet farm ers on Balem prairie, baa forty acres of a second crop of red clover that has gono to seed and will soon be cut for threshing. Clover seed sells for five to eight dollars a bushel and emla one dollar a bushel to thresh. Mr. Durbln believsait can be raised here in a favor able season as well as anywhere and is woll prepared to cure it. A farmer near Woodburn has a clover buller and will thresh it We shall await the result with Intrest and shall report what the outcome la. Clover that has been rnu through a thresher' still makes good feed for all kinds ofstook and Mr. Dur bln ought have no trouble to get rid of it. If clover Beed can be successfully made a crop in Oregon It will add an other spoke to the wheel of wealth that must be ever on the roll in the future if agriculture la to be made profitable. Hay, pasture, fertilizer and seed in our crop are a combination in favor of clover that can be claimed for nothing else. It is not sure that clover can not be grown on the Waldo Hills. It has simply not been discovered how to manage it. We have Been fine crops of clover growing on the hills of the cosat range and In Tillamook county. As an exterminator of foul weeds and fern, clover has no equal. As a pasture It is excellent, and we have never heard of animals turned upon it being subject to the bloat here that makes it almost a dangerous pasture in the eastern state?. There should be a great deal more clover sown this winter than ever be foroastbo possibilities of good prices for bog and cattle products are far greater than for grains. Next to pease, clover will add flesh and growth, bone and muscle, to young pies faster than other food. The beauty of it is, tboy will harvest it themselves, and need only a good fence to nold them In. Don't tiy to raise hogs without a good clover lot. A SAMPLE CLOVER CROP. Oregon farmers' are now made up of fully one-half the men who learned farming in the eastern states. Their experiences and Ideas of producing re sults aro mingling with those of the Orcgonlan rancher, and there Is good reason why the knowledge of the two sets ot individuals should supplement one another. The eastern man will baye to abandon and unlearn a great deal and the Oregon bred farmer can get hold of somo new things. Clover crops are a bone of contention the world over. Both the crop and cloyer seem to easily take root in the flat lands of the Willamette valley. On the hills nobody baa yet been able to produce a crop of clover in this part of the stato. A year ago February a neighbor sowed clover with oaU and winter wheat. Out of that seeding be got a crop of both grains, pastured the land last tall and this spring the wboat throw up a stand four foot high from the roots of the old wheat, with clover all through It two feel high, cutting over Ave tons of feed to the acre. Jt bad a sprink ling of wild oats through it that made it very toothsomo bay and on the same land came a second crop of clovor that was knee deep by the first of August, Jt wiw cut aud the entire field is now green with clover. If manure were put on, it would grow great crops of clover next year, A Jorge Held of this would pasture milch cows until New Yimr'. Hut, better still, let It bo plowed under thU winter and you have a (rmnJ natural furtlllor. On the laud sown to oaU and clover last year two flnocrorw of clover resulted and the html l now lluo pasture, J fore were twociojwof wheat, one crop of oat, ami two crojw of cloyer, and (lie Jsml enriched, as the result of wowing clover Willi grain, PrlendHQf ojovmr need not )o dlwouragcd jit Oregon. Thin wm M eommon red vjJoty VMVWAMM WWK NAJMWP W Pit WON, m,)U) Mlntwrn wiw wwi milk when grass is no longer growing and help to keep young stock from starving, as it does on too many farms . in Oregon, after the rain ria in. A . hog, sheep, or neat cattle once .fat or in good condition can be kept so with mucn less iooa ana care tuau n uuuu allowed to get thin. A good farmer in Marlon county tells the writer that he turned a lot of fat sheep on a field of summer fallow to trm np the fern. There was abso lutely nothing but a light sprinkling of fern visible on the red soil and yet with salt and water those sheep have kept fat there and tho land is cleaned off even to the feuce corners. We would not advise a fern diet all the time and the farmer who did this always feeds bis stock well. Contrast this field, lying all clean and bare to be made fruitful by sun and rain and the droppings of a band of 100 sheep, with another rear by where the summer fallow is one mass of green waving fern knee deep Both will be sown to grain tliH full. The latter will "grow as much fern aa wheat next year. The wheat will not be half a crop, because fern and jjrnli. cannot occupy the land with the wheal and both ben full crop. The clean field will produce thirty bushels to the acre of wheat at least. GREEK FOOD CHOI'S. Oregon farmers .have not yet learned how to produce crops for the purpose of making young stock grow rapidly. It takes too many of them two years to muke a hog thut is got ready for mar ket la ten months and weighs three hundred pounds in the slates (hat ship hundreds of carloads of pork products to the Pacific coast annually. It takes them four or five years to turn off a -ter that should be ready for the shambles In two or three years. They will be able to do these things as well and as quickly when they onco lcaru how to do them, and bow to produce the crops at the right time to make rapid growth, as their Eastern competi tors and do them cheaper, on account of a milder climate and greater product ive capacity of the soil. As soon as he learuB to keep a supply of clovers, peas, green corn and roots in succession for young stock to feed upon, so that it will never be checked in its growth from the day It is born until it goes to market,lhe Oregon farmer will discover that our soil and climate is a gold mine. But if he lets bis stock live on natural products entirely, and seeks to fatten 4 lem ou climate, he will continue to have starved skins to fill, and there is no more hopeless or unprofitable a task. The grass that grows all the yeir around and tho mast in the forest is a deluslonso far as producing fat stock is concerned. The days of bonanza farming are over with, whether it be in Dakota or Oregon. The days of trusting to luck or to the boundless prodigality of mother earth aro also gono never to re turn. Farming by proxy Is a thing of the post. Intelligence, application of business principles, the closest husband dying of all the practical experience ot others, as well as t be latest resources of science and Invention will alone bring the farming operation s of the future to successful conclusions. Tho Cat In Ancient Time. Tho cat was so very highly regarded in England at ono time, both as a rat and mouse catcher, and as an ornament to socioty, that we find the following salu tary law passed by one of tho prince of Wales: "If any one steal or kill a Cat that guards tho Princo's Granery, ho is to forfeit a milch Ewe, its Fleeco and Lamb. Or, as much Wheat as, when poured upon tho cat suspended from its tail, with tho head touching tho floor, would forma heap highonought to cover tho tip of tho former," Though tho Welsh had a high opinion of tho cat, tho ancient Egyptians had a still higher. Thoso intelligent and civ Hired pooplo treated cats with great dis tinction. It was a crime to kill them, and when tlioy died they received a pub lic burial, at which the people mourned, having first shaved off thoir eyebrows as a token of sorrow. Tho most prominent cats were upon death embalmed in drugs and spices, and cat mummies have been found side by side with those of kings. When Cainbyscs, the Fre!au, attacked tho Egyptian city of Pelusis, ho cunning )y provided his soldiers with cats in stead of shields, When tho host ad' vonoed, the Egyptians retired in oonfu Ion upon discovering (hat they would lw unable to do damage to their enemy wjtuont seriously im periling tho liven of vast numbers of cuts, And so tho city was taken wialjy and without the loss p( blood or of a cat, Jt cannot Imj disputed thut tho ancient Egyptian cats must hnva unjoywi life very iuuoli)6t Louis Pot DiptcU, A -lrd That ' Mfce uiiUfc.u.

Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a con stitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure Is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of tho disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature i doing Its work. The proprietors baye to much faith in its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any cases that it fails to cure. Bend for list of testimonials. Address. F. J. CHENEY, & CO. Toledo.
