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.

capable and skillful artificers and attisans of Eu
rope, and the naturalizing on our soil of many
branches of production hitherto all but confined
to the Old World, while it would strengthen and
extend those which hare already a foothold
among us.
It will give careful attention to progress and
improvement in Agriculture, doing its best at
once to bring markets to the doors of our farmers
and teach them how to make the most of the op
portunities thus afforded them.
It will devote constant attention to Markets, es
pecially for Agricultural Products, with intent to
save both producer and consumer from being vie
