campaign is that of securing promises from farmers in the county that they; will make the proper preparation for feeding clover before tht; time actually' comes to sow the seed. A number of 1'ie directors, as well as the secretary, I stated that they could secure ten or more men in their community uh. would i'laege themselves to grow twenty acres cf clover "according to Heyle " j That clover can be successfully grown here has been demons! .ited repeatedly' by the men who have used phosphate and limestone. All wo need to grow J uii-. crop is a more liberal use of phos-, phate and limestone, and in some case , barnyard manure, then with good seed and with proper methods of putting it' in, any well-drained farm can rroduce i clover. The time to get ready for sow-! ing clover next sjring is between now and the time the r-mall grain crop is .own. This is a good thing to be think ing about. , V. A. PLACE. County Agent.
