FABH, - GINDEN AND HOUSEHOLD mess moo a sow amiss seep.__ I have atiimpresalen that experhAin tal knowledge is the - moat valuable for the farmer. Par more than half a ,, mar buy I have been experimenting to find the best time to sow grass seed. Poi more than thirtj of the Host Yeiri Of my farming I did u ay . neighbors did; we supposed the spring month! Arent only: proper ones for that purpose.,'. Brt: later in life by reading agtioultural pen I discovered that wine enterprising . farmers were succeishil In sowing thew grass seed in Augast and • 13spbsoiter. . tried the experiment with *opiate suc cess; that being the season it would EU unity fall, it , appeared evident to my , mind that It was the right emu. Bat still later I have aotbeenpartlcular, and have sowed gnu seed any season when my ground was premed to teeelve It, and If the seed wait good lute uniformly vegetated and done well. . Last fall we (my son and myself,) after harvesting our potatoes from the low wet soil, which would not- admit of seeding down in early spring, • solved herd grass end rod top seed . on the 14th and 15th of October upon said potato field, doubting, but still hoping for the best; and now, the Bth of July, ft bids to' give us the beat crop, of hay produced on any of my farm iota. This grass will probably require'two weeks longer. I think I never sew seed . vegitate better fat any mason. Grass seed will vegitete a long time alter sowed. The spring of 1862 1 seeded down a lot of good ground i —rather dry--t-with red top geed. The months of Jane and July were uncom monly dry, and at the middle of August there was no appearance of grass sprout 'on the piece. On the 10th of Augnst— the. same year—it began to rain profuse. and continued raining tor acural weeks till the ground was uturated. In September, more than four months after the teed was sown, every seed seemed to yegitate, and the ground appeared like a beauttfal lawn. And on the whole I have concluded that any time when our land is in a good state of pre paration to receive the seed, Is the best time to sow it. Brown,: in -Boston Cultivator. iliSernasenie of th• il'aestead. P. Barry, of till" city, one of the most intelligent horticulturist, in the country, gives the fokoaring miyhmi on this 'ab ject: "The firstthing I shod pss on the farmers t th he way of ul Imp re rovement, would be what we might call roadside improvement. Keep the cattle off the highways, keep the weeds rut close, and lines of shade trees on each aide of this, with neat fences, will be an evidence of civilization to begin with. Then I would enjoin the removal from the road. sides, near the dwelling, of all 'dilapi dated and broken implements, which are to apt, somehow or other, to Income. late. "The barn and other entlmildings are very frequently located more on the prtnelploof convenience than good lute, but we must take these things as they are,' and improve them with paint or wash of some sort, and a good thick belt ' of rapid growing trees around them, both for welter and shade and to partly conceal their unsightly appeahume. - "Then for for the door-yard, I would dig up, nbot out all the old neglected plum, peach; cherry and quince trees, that seem to have sprung up by chance In the corneri. All this class of trees, that we might call the finer fruits, not usually grown in orchards, I would form Into a nice fruit garden of halloos acre or two acres, u might be necessary. There I would have a complete collec tor' of pears, cherries, apricots, plums, quinces, all the small fruits systemati cally planted and, carefully cultivated. This garden might be made one of the most interesting portions of the prem ises, to say nothing of the abtinciantsup. ply of fine fruit and vegetables it would yield. Here the family could acquire ta'sto for gardening, as gall as learn to practice it: "Then the ground about the housil would convert into 11 smooth lawn, which must be suitably embellished with deciduous and averment trees, flower ing shrubs, roses. &e. Thia is the way I preach to farmers when I viallthim, but only once in a great while with any effect. It is a shame for our wall.to-de farmers that they are so behind In this matter. It makes farm life so dull and dreary a pursuit, that I am not sarprised to see all the brighter boys run away from it, and our rural population grow ing len and less every year. Then think how much these Improvements would add to the market value of the farms. A nice house, some good fences, an orchard, increase the value of slam from twenty to twenty.ilve dollars per acre, other things bathe equal, but any out such suggestions as I have made, and what do you suppose it would add to the value of fennel Almost doable hi This argument has some weight; it touches the pocket, but the moral effect of such improvement would be absolute• ly incalculable."—Amerfean Yams,. _ 'nee ankles ea Um llMall Wale.
