The true standards of the law demand that the lawyers render service to society. But the modern lawyer thinks only of his client.

He seldom thinks of himself as an advocate of society and servant of the state.

Last summer I was foolish enough to ov twelve pounds per acre in five acres of corn at the last plowing; but as I failed to get a stand, I sowed the field in succotash with sweet clover, red and main motli clover a nd ti mothy in the spring for hog pasture. 1 turned eighty head of hogs ami pigs into it.

Occasionally I let in eighteen head of cattle in order to keep jt down, hut the dry weather has got it checked now. Let people think it a weed, if they choose, but I will sow twenty acres more next spring and my 'only worry about it will be getting a stand." The same mail brings the following letter, showing the differ ence of opinion among farmers with regard to sweet clover 1 desire to asK you tne rea son lor the reonimenoarion or sweet clover. Our roadsides are thickly seeded with it, so that it is spreading through our pas tures an 1 meadows. It is a nuisance in the meadow, because it is too coarse for hay when the timothy is ready to cut. It is a nuisance in the pasture because the stock refuse to touch it even in this dry season when the pasture is Does stock have tr lea rn to eat i and do yon think it would be profitable to mow it for hay while it is a foot high or while still tender?" There you are.

This corres pondent is right about, sweet clover being a nuisance in the tinothy field; and where there is but little of it cattle refuse to eat it. If you want to use sweet clover, sov it by itseif and sow it thick. Tut your cattle on it in the spring. They will leari to eat it and like, it, and thrive an it quite as well as on the best red clover. It is not a hay plant, hut a -pasture plant, and should be sown alone.

We do not recommend it for that there is value in this plant in this plant if rightly used, but it' must be used, but it must be used in the way indicated. We Hotice that the town cows in Des Moines, as they pass when driven by the boys to pasture, eat this clover eveit when it is in hloom. Ordinarily, however, they would not touch it in the pring. We have seen hay made from sweet clover. It is, how ever.

The air was sweet and calm, and as the sun slowly way across the heavens it shone with the brilliant splendor of a diamond. The trees with their beautiful foliage were merry, with the song birds hopping from limb to limb as the'gentle zephyrs played with the leaves. The green fields of corn and cane tood out majtstically in were in their glory in the mead ows, and all Nature spread her beauty in the scene of a perfect lay In the sky the beautiful blue was clear, and the white, marble clouds that here and there hung in the heavens presented a mountainous scene of the snow capped peaks of the great Rock ies. 1 i 1 11 Aim cue oinis assembled in the trees for the night the great orb of light silently drops be neath the horizon, and in the eastern sky hangs the silver crescent of the approaching night.
