Jim SJwtet'&pweMi TOP MEADOWS IX WIXTtjC A thin dressing of-clay put upon a meadow, where the soii is sandy, or sandy loam, or tor the most part muck, and not in a very good state of fertility, will sometimes increase the growth of grass so largely, that meadows hardly worth mowing will yield three tons of excellent hay per acre. Sometimes when grading has been done, or a new fence has been built, tbe earth has beeu scattered in depressions on tbe sward near by, and the result almost always is a large increase in the growth of the grass. We have freequently observed bunches, and small patches of tall, heavy grass of a luxuriant growth, near stakes, and posts, that had recently been set, a small quantity of the earth having been scattered, when the workman was digging the holes. Faking the hint from these, it is easy to see how teams and laborers may be employed profitably, when there is snow on the ground.- or it is too eold to engage in labor that re quires warm weather. If a man has a sandy meadow yielding but a small burden of grass, it will pay well to haul clay, or almost any kind of earth, half a mile to top dress such ground. IV hen sleighing 13 good a team will ha il two tons at one load with ease. If the soil be of a peaty character, two tons of cold, stiff clay spread in the winter over an area of four square rods, will usually produce a max imum result. Should the clay be plowed, or spaded up in large clods, let them be spread the snow or grouud, and the frost and rain will reduce them to a fine and mellow condi tion before the growing season commences, so that a little labor withashovel will cover the entire surface with an excellent top-dressiDg, the good effects of which will be perceived for several years in the large quantity of grass and hay, and in the better quality. An active man with a good team will haul. 011 au average, one ton of earth an hour, half a mile, when the travelling is such that the the team may haul two tons per load. And if half a ton be spread on each square rod, it will require eighty tons to top-dress an acre. The expenses of the teams for hauling need not be computed because they must be kept in winter, whether they work or not, and it will be better for them to labor than to remain idle. T hen allowing a man one dollar per day, if he hauls only four loads per day, making eight tons, it will cost ten dollars to top-dress one acre. The grass produced by such a dressing over and above what would have grown in a single season, will ordinarily more than pay all this expense. But, in the winter, when farmers have little to do besides their daily chores, they can work a few hours every day at top-dressing in this maimer, and it will cost them even less than we reckoned, will be better for both men and teams to labor moderately, than to remain idle. When there is a preponderance of clay in the soil, sand, or sandy loam, or muck may be hauled instead of clay. The frost and rains will al most surely reduce it fine before the growing season commences, and it will answer the double purpose of a mulch and fertilizer. When the snow is off the ground on a mild day. the lumps, if there are many, may be broken up and spread by a harrow turned upon its back.— American Agriculturist. DltAFtaiT or HEAVY AN Ik LItHT PLOWS. The momentum of a plow in its passage through the soil is an appreciable force. There is no advantage arising from the use of a heavy plow, from its relieving the team in overcoming obstacles. On the contrary, there is considerable disadvantage in the draught of a heavy plow, as every unnecessa ry pound absorbs a certain proportion of the effective muscular force of the team. If a plow weighing one hundred pounds, which is heavier than many good plows, be sufficiently strong, the addition to its weight of thirty or more pounds will tax the team to haul that unnecessary weight from day to day, to no purpose. A dynamometer (or draft-measu rer is not delicate enough to indicate the dif ference which there actually is between the draught of heavy and light plows. If a plow cuts a furrow slice one foot wide, then in plowing one acre, if it weigh thirty pounds more than is necessary, it will absorb an amount of the effective force of a team suffi cient to move 1,080 lbs, a distance of one eighth of a mile, dragging it along on the ground. L'hese fact) lead us to discourage the use of unnecessarily heavy plows, out ol regard to the teams, if not to the plowmen.- American Agriculturist. OVT PLOW TOO MITCH. John Johnson says that he has noticed that those farmers who have most difficulty to make both ends meet always plow most and keep most stock. Now those men take the true plan to k eepthemaelres always poorand bring little. It is a good profit to raise three hundred hushels of wheat from ten acres; but when it takes thirty acres to raise that amount it is raised at a loss. So it is with cattle and sheep. You will see the thinking farmer making four year old steers worth from sixty to eighty dollars each, and his neighbor's at the same age, not over twenty-five or thirty. If his land is exhausted—and a great many farms are—then he should plow no more than he can thoroughly manure. Seed with clover and grass, and let it rest for even two years, and that field will not only pay for tillage but it will furnish manure (if rightly managed) to make another field of the same size rich also. It is bad policy, when a field is once highly manured, to continue cropping it with grain until the manure is used up. The lat ter end of that land will be worse than the first. But let the land lay in clover, even one year—but two is better—after it is manured, and then it will stnud six good crops before it requires manuring; if clay 6ubsoil it certainly will. — Gene&sce Farmer.

Their property comprises six (6) separate, distinct, Silver-bearing Ledges 01 Lodes iu Sen .Antonio Mining District, Nye county, Nevada, in the riehest portion of the cele brated "Reese-river Region," and admirably loca ted in every respect for profitable mining. These Silver Mines are known respectively as the C.?.- SAR, CICERO:, SHAKESPEARE, SHAY and CURTIS, PAI.ESTIXB and MAOEDON LEDGES,- and the prop •rtv of the Company consists of an original loca tion of 1.660 feet along the course of each vein, or a grand total of SIX THOUSAND FEET OF MINING GROUND. The Secretary of the Com pany has visited these mines in company with several experienced miners and mining engineers, and given them a thorough examination. Full particulars in regard to their inexhaustible wealth and resources will be furnished on application at the Principal Office, 809 CHESTNUT ST., PHILADELPHIA. where tsu can be ?ecn the richest cabinet of sil ver ores, silver bullion, Ac., ever exhibited in the Atlantic IHtntes. Abundant evidence of the most satisfactory and conclusive charecter has been fur nished the Board of Directors in regard to the wealth and permanence of the mines. The title to the property has been subjected to the most careful examination, and found to ne perfect in particular—of which fact the highest official en dorsements have been obtained. The Company have secured the services of a thoroughly experi enced Mining Superintendent (a resident of Ne vada), who is already engaged in the extraction of ore lroni the mines. As soon as the working capital of the Company is secured, the erection of permanent, and efficient reduction works will be commenced. The six silver-bearing ledges belonging to this Company range in width from three to fifteen fee', and assays of average ore from near the surface range from e hundred to orrr one dot. torn per- ton in si Iter.
