If you have a weak
throat you cannot be too
careful. You cannot begin
treatment too early. Each
cold makes you more liable
to another, and the last
one is always harder to
cure than the one before it.

Clover Fall on Clover Bod.
Alwxrt all farmers know that It Is
not aafe to plow a clover tod, or, In
fact, any other sod In the fall, and then
ow whpat with the expectation of get
ting a clover catch from seed next
aprlug. There have leu various rea
sons assigned for this, the old one be
ing that the clover sod while It la rot
ting In the soli "polaona" tbe Und for
clover until the rotting la completed.
hut H la Quite oa Impossible to eeed
with clover on any newly plowed sod,
and that dbipoaes of tbe clover-polson-Ing
theory. The true explanation seems
to be that when a sod of any kind is de
caying under the furrow It allows the
aoll above it to fall down, thus destroy
ing the slight hold which the young
clover plant has, and obliging It to re
gain Its hold before tbe leaf wilts and
kill the root Clover will come up
well enough on a clover or any other
kind of sod, but unless there ore al
most constant rains during the spring
Httle of It will live. Even a timothy
seeding does not do well on a newly
plowed sod, though In young plantg the
proportion of leaf to root Is much leas
In the grn-sa than It Is In any kind of
clover.

There are some points about straln
Ing milk that are not generally llioitiht
of, and therefore tiie milk Is not who.ly
cleared of its bacteria. In tha fust
place It Is Important that the milk
should be put through the strainer and
get where its cream Is to rls; as soon
as possible after It comes from the cow.
It often accumulates bacteria very rap

odors. Besides, if left loiig some of tno

to the strainer cloth or wire will not

should be thoroughly washed by dip

It rapidly through both ways, so that
bacteria will not adhere to the under

In that way If there are any bacteria

Keep the Meadow Clean.
Briers, bushes and weeds really have
no place In the meadows or cultivated
fields, and their growth should be care
fully kept down. Every farmer ought
to have some sort of rotation of crops
for his land, and of a kind that experi
ence teaches him Is best for bis pur
poses. But even with this, from vari
ous cause, special work will need to be
done from time to time. It is desirable
to have the best possible returns from
the mowing fields, and as the crop was
being secured It was quite easy to note
what particular places or fields needed
most attention. There are some por
tions of the meadows on most farms
that It is rather difficult to plow and
cultivate, but yet with proper treatment
can be made to produce excellent crops
of bay. If these can lie made smooth
for the harvesting machinery' and a
good sward secured, they can be kept In
condition for a long time wtth plowing
by frequent top dressings of manure.
