IMPORTED CLOVER SEED CAUSES HEAVV LOSSES IN PENNA. The farmers of Pennsylvania -usstain a loss that amount* to many thousands of dollars each year from the use of Imported clover seed, according to the Bureau of Plant Industry, Pennsylvania Department of AL-riculture. The bureau urge* that the farmers of this State -ituer raise their own clover seed or purchase domestic seed, in an effort to stop the heavy loss. During the past ye*r about 9,000.000 pounds of clover seed were imported from Italy and the bulk of this w.-,s used in the Eastern States. It Is estimated that between 1.000,000 and f.DOO.OOO pounds of this seed were used in Pennsylvania. The Dalian seed is good seed and can be distinguished from that gtown In America only by the impurities .o-md in it. The yield from this seed is only about 50 per cent of that se cured from the American seed. TW< is stiown by experiments cor ducted by the Federal Government at Washing-

ton.

The cause for the low yield from the foreign seed is probably due t> the fact that the condition* &£ rMfnato and soli are different in America from conditions in Europe, it has also been found that the imported seeds are more susceptible to disease than clover grown In this count r/. While the Federal experiments were conducted on Government farm* near Washington and the soil and climate there are somewhat different from Pennsylvania, yet this difference is not believed to be greet enough to make any material change in the general results obtained.

APPLEWOOD IN DEMAND

BY TOOL MANUFACTURERS ! armers In ePnnsylvsnia who contemplate cutting down apple trees for one it-ason or other, during tbe fall and winter, should carefully preserve the wood, as there Is an unusual de-

mand for it at his time.

Apple wood Is used largely for the making of saw handle* by tool manufacturers and Is also used as a rubstifor sweet briar in the manufacof smoking pipes. So scarce is the supply at this time that one large tool manufacturer Is planning to « force of woodsmen through the State i an effort to secure worn out apple trees or trees that are herring fruit for which there is no demand-

ROT IN THE POTATO CROP

PROTECT SEED BEANS FROM ATTACKS BY WEEVIL

Many farmers and truckers !n Pennsylvania who grow only a small amount of beans, find that their stock stored over the winter, including that laid by lor seed purposes, is partially destroyed by the bean weevil Many complaints have reached the Pennsyivaaia Department of Agriculture that entire stocks w*--e destroyed in this

manm-r during last winter.

To protect the beans from the * til, bisulphide of carbon should used in fumigation. Another method of preventing the weevil from working Is to heel the beans in an oven to a temperature of 125 degree! Fahr The heat t realm out should not be used on beans kept for **-«‘d purposes. For details of the control of thi.* pest write to the Bureau ol Plant In dus’ry. Pennsylvania Department ©1

The Bureau of Plant Industry of the Pennsylvania ix-partment of A trie tills tx ing flooded with inquiries regarding the rotting of the potato crop this year. The prevalent rot is In no wise different from epidemics of the same trouble in yeans gone by. except that the recert von - warm weather has caused the rot to develop so rapidly as to appear unusually serious It Is the well known late blight rot which is doing the damage, a potato disease which occurs with more or less severity every’ year, and which has always been the bugbear of the potato grower even back in the

days of our grandfathers.

The bureau advises buyers of potatoes to examine them carefully. The late blight, which started rather late in the potato tops In the field, had many casts Just begun to attack the tubers at digging time. Any potatoes | which now show a discoloration under the skin looking something like bruise on one’s flesh have the incipitages. and are almost cure to rol. and to rot very quickly if kept in warm condition. For those who have potain storage the sooner they are cooled anil dried the better. The rot

signifies that you bonld give expression to tL You are a composer. Perhaps, you have not been aware of it before because you have never attempted to compose a melody. I* is time for you to find out If you have this gift you must make use of h. It was given to you for a purpose as well as everything else. Everything hi this ’“wld was created for a definite purpose. This fact proves that musk has its place in our daily lives and is a necessity to our health, happiness and prosperity as the food we eat to nourish our bodies. Without the ability of a composer to write down the musical strains which he bars and feels through his whole organism we would not have been hies* d with such « wonderful power as that

which lies in music.

The one great channel through which one receives melodies is inspii There are various phases to this

derfnl thing. There are as many ways

which we car be inspired as there : in crossing the continent. one may be in-pi red from one v

another may be from anothrr. The sight of water to a thirsty man is an inspiration to drink. The sweet warble of a bird inspires man to imitate it, and the melody which would be foreign to hi* own understanding is perfect to tbe little creature. Yet, on man's journey of life he stops and listens when he bears the warble of the

•■da. That is one phase of inspira-

tion. Anothr scourer of inspiration may be what we may term "The transmission of infinite mind to the finite mind." The vibrating sounds of nature in the universe abound around and through every atom of substance with which we come in contact. There's music in the air, and to the mortal being who is susceptible its influence will receive the inspiration to put it into physical expression. Man must be endowed with this susceptibility before he can ever expect to be a composer. dies he has access to all of the out-

Composers are bora and not made. In the work of writing original irelo-

side forces. They work in and through him by namra' laws, iiis inspired rrind is in harm, ny with i itural vibratory force* which, perhaps, hi cannot understand, but hears, as it were, the melody before he writes it. Beyond his own wishes at times he hears a.id feels the vibrations pulsating through his being in an endeavor to find expression. He cannot ndp it, so he says. It comes and he has to write it down. Many good melodies are thusly received through the instrument of mhrtal mind that is thrown away and nothing more heard of it That man is throwing t way valuable material, and should be kept for some future use and good oi the world. Many I have known have been endowed with such abilities to produce such wonderful works if they would devote their time and energy to it. but through ignorance as to its worth they have neglected to use the God-given pow-rs and have Ranted nothing. There are others of whom I personally Know who thought they were composers and have made many attempts at composing melodies, but failed. All cannot accomplish this wonderful work, but it Is up to each of us who is able to compose original melodies to devote our me at making a success of the work.

To make a success of composing music

reouircs the ability that the old roasters had in their time. The_ ordinary music of today is only “trash” as compared with their works. We don't see the abilities displayed today as it was in those days Why is it? Why aren't there men today That can produce the wonderful works that those men did:

because we are not so close to

nature; we're not so susceptible to spiritual inspiration; we're not living the life that those men did. Their lives were pure and devoted to the work they loved. The memories oi those

The Lantern of

‘In the October afternoon; Orange and purple and maroon. Goes quiet autumn, lamp in hand. About the apple-colored land. To Ught in every apple tree. The lantern of St. EuImIIo; They glimmer in the orchard shade Like fiery opals set in Jade— Crimson and russet and raw gold. Yellow and green and scarlet old. And O. when 1 am isr away By foaming reef or nzuro hay. in crowded street or hot lagoon. Or under the strange Austral moon— When the homesickness comes to me For the great masher by the sna. The running dikes, the 1' iramlrg ide. And the dark firs on Fundy aide. In dreams once more I shall behold, t Jkt, spiral lights those globes of gold.
