around it." It will thrive on any soil of
moderate depth aud fertility, if fa run-d
by a season of eufllcleht moisture. San
dy loam?, however, are often deficieut in
lime, and also overcnargea wun acios, as
shown by the growih of sorrel and dock,
lime, and also overcharged with acios. as
which are apt to overgrow the clover;
but ashes or manure will so stimulate
the clover that it will finally succeed. It
is said that a mixture of ashes add ryp
sum is much the best lop dressiig f clo
ver, on very acid soils, greatly increasing
its growih.
Clover is best sown with some other
crop, because it rarely yields much the
first year, aud in the early stage of its
growih it is assisted by the protection of
other grain, which should be removed as
rarjy a. may be, for "the sooner." fcays
Thaer, "the crop with which clover is
grown is larvesttd, the greater the
ffrowih of the clover." In my experi
ence I have found it to swereed be.-t wiih
winter wheat and ry, next wi h spring
wheat, next with bailey, and lastly wiilf
oat s.
A gond deal of clover seed has been
sown which has failed to produce the in
tended crop, and various causes operate
to hinder its vegetation or to destroy the
young plants, One cause of non-veget-aiion
i ihe deep covering, or no covering
given the seed. Sown on spring grain,
aid harrowed in with a heavy harrow,
much is phcrd too d-'ep to be able to
grow. Or, if sown on the fresh soil, af
ler ihe grain is covered, without any af
ter treatment, unle.-sa heavy ram comes
soou ,io wa.-h il into the toil, the failure
is equally sure. On winter gram, it is
sometimes lot bfcau.-e town too late. If
own in March, or as soon as th hvl Is
are bare, the freezing and thawing of
the soil wiM furnish a proper covering fur
clorf-r; on priug cranio I would ratiier
ne the roller arier sowing or pass over
it with a lighi brush harrow.
Another cause of failure, one from
which we have suffered more than any
othr, is the drought ofien occurring in
early smumer, before the younger clover
pets sufficient growth to withstaud its ef
fects, and it is burned or dried up. Rem
edy: the t arliest sowing practicable, and
manunal aid io luducea vigorous yrowthi
Gypsum, plastt-r. usually proves" su;b
stimulant. A light top-dressing of fine
manure harrowed in with the spring
grain, is equally beneficial, and if the
soil is not very fertile, fhould be given,
in addition to the dressing of plaster and
ashes.
On land running down to a very, low
itate of fertility, some such treatment is
absolutely necessary ; . but once secure
your clover crop and you may, redeem
your land.

sometimes retains its fluidity, sometimes
it is so constituted that while it is warm
