FULL INVESTIGATION IS INVITED
Variety Of Clover To Sow.
A Story county , Iowa , corre-
spondeut has thirty-live acres
of land which he wishes to seed
down to clover and timothy.
The land is Hat and is getting1
quite thin. He wishes to know
which is the best to sow , com
mon red or mammoth clove , and
whether we would pasture it or
cut it for hay. He also wishes
to know which would be the
best to cut for hay , and which
would be the best to sow , using
clover exclusively.
Notwithstanding all that we
have said upon the subject , the
value and uses of the different
kinds of clover seems not to be
as yet fully understood by many
of our readers. We have been
talking on this subject for
twenty-five years , but the con.
stant influx of new subscribers
( greater this year than ever be
fore ) renders it necessary to
tell the same story over again ,
which our older subscribers
will please excuse.
For hay alone on well drained
corn land we should consider
the red clover by all odds the
best. For wettish lands alsike
is the only variety that should
be used. We do not recom
mend sowing mammoth clover
for hay except on thin lands , as
it grows entirely too rank on
richer lands , and especially on
bottom lands , to make good hay.
Clover that under these circum
stances will grow five feet high
and lie down two or three times
in a good season makes a very
coarse hay , much of which the
stock declines to eat. On thin
ner lands , however , and sown
with timothy , it makes as good
a hay as any man could desire.
We do not recommend sowing
clover alone , whether it is in
tended for either hay or pasture.
Timothy should always go with
it. In our own farming we al
ways put alsike clover and tim
othy on wet lands , and especial ,
ly on bottoms that need drain
age. We use it , altogether in
sloughs and swales that have
not yet been drained. On rough
thin lunds we use mammoth clo
ver and timothy ; and on good ,
well drained corn lands in good
heart we use red clover and
timothy.
On lands that have not been
accustomed to growing clover
we would sow eight , sometimes
even ten pounds of common red
or mammoth per acre. If , how
ever the land has grown one or
two crops , eight pounds is
abundant and if the seed is well
covered six is plenty. Usually
we recommend eight pounds , because -
cause we know that fanners
generally do not take pains to
get their clover sufficiently cov
ered ; but thosu who know how
to put clover on lands of that
character do not need more than
six pounds to the acre. In fact ,
if half of the six pounds grows
the first year there is plenty.
Still it is always wise to use
plenty of seed.
It is high time now that farmers
were buying their clover seed ;
and if they have any doubt
about its germinating qualities ,
let them take a fair sample of
one hundred seeds and germi
nate them in a box in the house.
You must not expect as good
success in the field as in the
house , about two-thirds as much.
Neither must you expect the one
hundred seeds all to grow , even
if the germination be perfect , be
cause there is a certain per cent
of hard seeds in any sample of
clover that will not grow until
the second year unless soaked in
warm water for twenty-four
hours before sowing. This is
not practical. Therefore figure
that from one-fourth to one-third
of your clover seed < will not grow
the first year , hut will come on
in the second year.
Some ot our readers may ask :
Why do you advise sowing tim
othy ? For the simple rea.-on
thtit clover itself does not
occupy the ground fully , and
you will get just as much clover
the seed sowed is half timothy
sis you will 11 you have it all
clover. Timothy seed is cheap
and timothy hay is valuable.
Jiesides , li you should miss a
stand ol' clover front any climatic
reasons , you are still likely 10
geta very good stand of timothy.
These first principals in clover
growing may help our corre
spondent to determine what he
shall sow.
Now And Then.
The appeal of the local papers
requesting the traveling public
to use the stub trains is meet
ing a ready response. The
railroad company is delighted
with the business and has so
notified the people in authority
here. This movement can be
greatly aided by the traveling
public in Verdon and Stella.
We want to show good business
between Palls Uity and Auburn
and between \tlls City and
Hiawatha , as this territory was
neglected under the old sche
dule. If the b'usiness between
such places is satisfactory the
new schedule will remain , other ,
wise the old one will he resum

If this telephone controversy
cannot be settled otherwise and
the present council refuses to
act except in accordance with
the wishes of the local phone
company. Why would it not be
a good idea to submit an ordi
nance to the voters granting a
toll station to the mutual com
panies ? The Tribune believes
that 90 per cent of the merch
ants favor granting such privi
lege to the outside companies
and if the council will not act in
accordance with the wishes of
the people , the people might
take the matter in their own
hands and pass the ordinance by
popular vote at the ensuing city
election.

Every small ( town has its town
row. Nearly every large town
has one so far as that is con
cerned. A town row is all right
in its place , but the trouble is
that some of the participants
are of the small bore variety
that persist in inserting it into
anything and everything. The
worst feature of a town row is
theusesto which the small nar
row fellows put it to. A town
row has no place in anything
concerning the welfare of a com
munity. There ought to be a
common interest in a city's pro
gress that would eliminate all
personal matters concerning
other things. There are men ,
unfortunately , whose every act
is prompted l > y their participa
tion in factional trouble and
who never go beyond the ques
tion , what effect will it have on
my enemy ?

Apropos of this we give the
following facts without com
ment. The public library is an
institution in which every right
minded citizen feels a just pride
and welcomes every opportunity
to serve its interest. The pco-
je | connected with this paper
did all in their power with
money and encouragement to
make it a success from the time
the walk was laid until to-day.
Columns of matter looking to its
progress have been published
in this paper without price and
from purely public spirited
mbtives. During Ihe time that
tickets were sold for a dollar
the writer of this purcha-ed a
good number and distributed
them to those financial condi
tion was such as to deny them
the privileges of the library.
Notwithstanding this , when
bids were asked to print the
library catalogue J. E. Leyda ,
who had charge of it , did not
give The Tribune the opportun
ity to bid. Again , a few weeks
ago Mr. Leyda reported a pro
position to the library board
that hereafter when new books
were purchased the list of the
same should be furnished to the
Journal and News and they
should be paid one and one half
'
cents per description. Of
course the library board com
posed of ladies and gentlemen
of some breadth of character
did not entertain an } ' such pro
position and the name of The
jTr/bune was added by the con
sent of every other member of
the board. A matter so small
as this could not injure 'ihe
Tribune , but it might have a
tendency to injure the library.
We cite it as an illustration of
how a town row injures the city
and not in a complaining spirit.

Thu weather for the past two
weeks will put the fruit in great
danger. The warm spring like
days have caused the buds to
swell and if , as is quite likely ,
cold weather should follow it
will probably result in the total
destruction , of the fruit pro
spects. Speaking of fruit , we
could never quite understand
why a cold storage house in
Falls City would not pay. Dur
ing good fruit years the best uf
apples sell at about thirty
cents a bushel ; along in the
spring the same apples sell for
from a dollar and a half to two
dollars a bushel. I'he cold
storage man gets the profit.
With as many apples as nre
grown in Richardson County as
well as the numerous other cold
storage products , it seems to us
that a plant would be a big pay
ing investment right here in
Falls City.
Falls City is on the map in a
good many ways of late. The
lead iind , the stub trains and
division prospects are making
us a very much talked of com
munity. We were right in it at
the state meeting of the com
mercial club * held in Omahu
last week. The World Herald
in speaking of the state conven
tion said : "W. A. Greenwaldof
Falls City led the discussions
and made a most interesting
talk on the future of the clubs
in the state and their manifold
duties. Mr. Green wald said :
The commercial club is the logi
cal organization. Commercial
clubs should be the clearing
houses of local prosperity. They
should always be in readiness
to beautify , work for country
roads , local telephones , new en
terprises in all things. "
* *
*
Speaking of beautifying the
city , would it not be a good
idea for the Commercial club at
its next meeting to appoint a
committee to wait on the busi
ness and professional men solic
iting prizes for the best kept
lawn ncxtS'iinmer ' ? The summer
Henry C. Smith inaugurated the
lawn prize movement was the
prettiest year Falls City ever
had. The lawns were in better
trim anil town property looked
better kept than ever before or
since. Not a great many com
peled but the influence on those
who did not was salutary. No
one will permit his yard to Ijt * .
come untidy when his neighbor's
yard is neat. The appearance
of a city goes a long ways , and
the appearance of Falls City
can by greatly benefit ted by a
lawn contest.

The decent element of Omaha
seems lo have a'vakened to an
appreciation of what the I'at
Crowe farce is likely to do for
Omaha. The Commercial club
and all the womans clubs have
met and resoluted and adjourn
ed. The thing for Omaha to do
is to go to the Polls and elect a
decent city government and
their resolutions willnotbc re
quired. The great metropolis
ot Nebraska la not hopeless.
The decent men and women are
in a majority , the only trouble
has been their indifference.
They have been too busy to take
part in municipal affairs. They
have delegated their rights of
self government to the Denni-
sons and the Crowes. If there
ishope for New York as Jerome's
election would indicate ; if there
is hope for Jersey City as Mark
Fagin's election would indi
cate ; there Is hope for Omaha.

The Crete Democrat that goes
after the Journal crowd as
"renegade democrats in the re
publican party" and rips the
paper up the back for saying the
jury law is a farce , should not
pet excited. The Journal usual
ly gets in that frame of mind
after every term of court where
a jury is convened. It means
nothing more than a temporary
dissappointment of fond hopes
and will wear oft in a short
time.
Errors of judgment that arise
from goodness of heart can
easily be forgiven. Y o r k
