V ,ml CRIMSON" CLOVER. lpon which red to lover will not tiirive. It is useful in c'(1 uixture for dry soil. Red clover is a perennial but of very vv ew years' duration. It is nutritious and j" oluble in moist locations. The large ^ ed or pea vine clover, also known ;is English cow grass, is a reliable sort for do wing under. White clover is espe- be :iallv prized for Lawns and pastures. Crimson clover, a sketch of which is i n lere reproduced from James M. Thor- P' >nrn & Co.'s annual descriptive cata- ol ogue for 1891, is an annual with crimson fS lowers, about which many reports were ^ nade last season, some exceedingly com- m neodatory, while others were not favor- <>] ible. Thor burn says that "sown late in kj he summer it furnishes an early green K odder the following season; u is aaso j ixcellent for Boiling." Beal says, "It at >elongs to a warm climate, and is not so x>pular at the north as is red clover." A Japan clover is a perennial, volnble >nly in sonthern localities, where it j hrives in any soil. It makes a fair hay, ind stock eat it readily when green. Potato Experiments. Of 122 varieties and seedlings of the m >otato tested the past season at the Wis- ^ wnsin station, the following ten were er nost productive, yielding in the order ^ u-nned: Seedling from C. E. Angell, si( lose Beauty, Monarch, Duplex, Late be ieauty of Hebron, Mullaly, Alexander's fa Prolific, Seneca Red Jacket, White Beau- lo y of Hebron and Wisconsin Beauty. _ 3laced in the order of their table quality, hese varieties would rank as follows: T Alexander's Prolific, White Beauty of ? lebron, Lato Beauty of Hebron, Duplex, Jonarch. Wisconsin Beauty, Seneca Bed Facket, Rose Beauty, Mullaly, seeding rom C. E. Angell.

The proportion of mall potatoes increased with the increase A tfseed. The smaller whole potatoes gave ^ nferior results to the smaller cuttings. Cwo single eyes in a hill yielded decidedy more than one, without a correspond- i? ng increase in small potatoes. No loss |f| n yield followed planting in hills as cornered with drills. The resulfcrwere clearly >pposed to cutting off the "seed end'' of he potato before planting. No advan- J age followed sprinklingthecuttings with and plaster before planting.

From careful germiaatiou tests made y Professor (ioff, of the Wisconsin staton, it-has been found thai the hulled y rains of timothy seed neither germinate o well nor retain their vitality so long Ms those not hulled; also that timothy sed, when properly stored, is fairly w V able up to live years old. ^ W.
