If judiciously fed te the right class of stock it may easily prove to be worth more to the growers than a full crop of wheat, even at the boom prices which prevailed a few weeks ago and which have been followed bv the usual reaction. There is literally millione for the farmers in this clover crop, not only in the immense amount of wholesome and nutri custi stock food it provides, and its great possibilities in producing beef and mutton, cheese and butter, and even bacon and’eggs, but also in it restorative influence on the fertility of the land, which is one of its greatest virtues, drawing, a it does, from earth below and air above and storing in available form elements which are neces~ rary for the growth, developement and pro”. duction of the best paying crops of al! kinds. Clover draws nitrogon from the air and stores it for use as a fertilizing agency, while the roots run deep down in- to the earth and bring up mineral elements which feed the crops, while che decaying roote and stems and leaves when plowed down furnish potash aad phosphoric acid as wellas vegetable matter or humus in the soil, which, improving ite mechanical condition, contributes to its ability tere- tain moisture, rendering it more suitable for a seed-bed for cereal crops a? well as for future catches of clover wien re-sown, to repeat the round of restoration agencies. Tf clover were sown every year with all cereal crops on weil- prepared land we should have no fear of the future fertility of the farms of fair Canada. With this and the barnvard manure made from the feeding of stock on the farm our land may be kept in good enough condition to grow the best of crops in perpetuity. Let it de laid down as one of the cardinal principles to sow clover and keep at it continuously. Wasnixctoy, July 19.—The military and vaval experts say that several impor- tant lesson io ordnance and fortifications are furnished by the campaign against Santiago. Itia pointed out that the long contentions between the relative merite of land fortifications and naval ships asa | means of coast defence have receive: much light by recent operations. When Admiral Sampson was chief of the ordo- ance bureau of the navy department he held that a moat effective means of defend- ing coasts was by means of warships rather thau defences. It is said, however, that the Spanish defence of Santiago harbor has demonstrated that coast defences are even more effective + an warships. The batteries of Morro Castle, Socapa and others, aided by the r-ining and torpedoing of the harbor, wre effective in preventing the American fl-et from entering the barbor, and this de pite the fact the Spanish guns were in no sense fortification armament. It is aid by some experts that bad Morro pos- sessed the large modern fortification guns, such as those protecting New York or Boston, it would have been able to have done serious damage to the attack- } ing fleet.

The Philippine Islands must be taken possession of and held under mill. tary ruie as a@ security torao indemoily, the amount of which should equal the cost of the war. This will make ad.n- position of the Philippine Islands that exception cannot be taken to by any of tlie European vations, aad will do away with any poesibility of foreign compli- cations growing out of our control of tbat territory, If the fereign nations object to our holding the islands in perpetuity,all they can doisto render monetary aid t.
