    FOR TIB FIRMER,
Renovating Old Grass Lanili,
Messes. •Editors.—Within the circle of a
few miles from the residence of one of your
readers there might be coanled quite a num
ber of fields which have been so long in
grass, as to be aod bound and to yield only a
■canty supply of June grass, weeds and moss.
How many hundreds and thousands of such
fields there must be found if the neighborhood
of every reader of your paper should furnish
a similar number. There,ought
be fewer fields than there are of this descrip
tion, for three good reasons, though more
nji«hl be enumerated.
1. li is an injury, to the reputation of the
farmer in the estimate of those besl qualified
to judge, when any field ol his is found yield
ing only a scanty supply of poor pasture.
2. It is an injury to his purse, as his cows
cannot make milk that will yield good butter
or cheese, or even any average quanlily of
these, if kept on poor grasses and a bare pas
ture
3. ft is an injury to his cows and all tho
slock fed on such a pasture, as they cannot
thrive, be as comfortable, or as serviceable in
any way, ns if kept on good clover or other
cultivated grasses. Should some of these or
like considerations induce any of your read
ers to propose improving his grazing lands,
,»uch may find some useful hint in the sug
gestions herewith offefred.
The best thing to be done with such old
pastures as are in ihe condition described is to
plow them up. cultivate for a year or two and
then re-seed. But this cannot always be done.
And wherever it is inconvenient to do this,
the thing that is next best should be done.
As the cultivated grasses are run out, a new
supply of the seeds of these grasses—clover,
timothy, red-top &c., must be pul upon the
field. Then ‘in order that the young growth
of grass should find sufficient nourishment,
the field should be dressed wiih any conveni
ent ferlilizet—wilh anything calculated to re
store the fertility of worn out land. Chem
ists inform us that cows carry off in their
milk a large quantity of lime and phosphoric
acid. It follows from this that in addition to
a dressing with barn yard manure or com
post, old grazing lands should receive one
also of plaster and of bones in the form of
bone dust or bones dissolved in dilute sul
phuric acid, or of some superphosphate of
lime. A mixture of plaster, ground bones
and powdered charcoal would form an excel
lent fertilizing dressing. Afler sowing this
mixture over the field, let a harrow with
small and sharp teeth be used so as to break
up the sod and stir up the soil somewhat to
the depth of two or three inches. Then the
aeed should be sown and the field dragged or
harrowed over once or twice more.
Whether this work of renovation be done
in the fall or in the spring, the field so treat
ed should not de pastured until the young
grasses tmve got Quite a good start.
A field which has been long used for mow
ing and grazing, ami on which the cu'tivaied
grasses have become exnncl, will repay for
the dressuv.' and I lie labor expended on it,
both hv itie nuamiiv and 'he quality of the
tiici'eetltivj ernn s The quality Or richness
of ihe mill; will be much increased, and the
same amount uf sloe's, which may, perhaps
have been lorm'Tiv nearly starved, will have
an abundance to keep them in a comfortable
and thriving condition. Tie sight of the
green and well covered field, and of its well
fed and contented occupants, will of itself be
a compensation almost enough to repay one
who loves loses things as they should be,and
the creatures around him comfortable and in
good condition, for all Ihe expense and labor
bestowed in thus renovating his old and ster
ile pasture lands.— Country Gent.
Field Beam a Profitable Crop.
, in our own experience we have found no
’crop more profitable than life common while
bem. it renuires Imle more care than corn;
on Ihe right lund of soil il is quite productive,
and almost always finds a ready market at
high prices. There is no product of the
soil which coniains as much nourishment,
pound (or pound as this. The stiaw makes
excellent winter fond for sheep. We have
found the smaller kinds to be much superior
to those of a larger kind.
Beans require a dry, warm soil. We have
raised them where u was so dry and sandy
that scarcely any thing else would grow.
Our best bean crops have been upon a thin
sandy soil, so filled with stones that il was ex
ceedingly difficult to plow it at all ; and where
the eirlh over the limestone rock was no
where more than four inches deep. One acre
of such ground we planted with common
while beans for ten years successively, and
never failed of getting a remunerative crop
and often had a very profitable one. This
pint was plowed, planted and hoed, at odd
spells, when it was so wet that no other
ground could be worked. —American Agri
culluris;.
Track Trees and Tansy.—A writer in
the Now York Timet recommends the sow.
ing of Tansy about the roots of Peach trees
as a moans of preserving them. He says
that he once knew a large peach tree which
was more than forty years old, while several
generations of similar trees in the same soil,
had passed away, This led to examination
and a bed of tansy was discovered nbput the
trunk. It was naturally inferred that the pre.
servation of this tree to such a green old age,
was attributed to the presence of this plant.
It was decided to try experiments on others,'
and accordingly a few of the roots were
placed about each of the other trees on the
premises, some of which gave signs of decay.
Not only has it preserved for several years
the sound trees, but renovated those that were
unsound. The odor of "the plant, he says,
doubtless keeps otf the insect enemies of this
kind of tree, and it might have the same ef
fect on others, as the plum, apple and pear,
as well as the elm, sycamore, and other orna
mental trees.
Wiutk Maple Sugar. — A Vermont far
mer says the following is a sure method of
clarifying sugar:—Filter all your sap before
boiling, through a hoppnr or box of sand,
which, he Is sniffled, will take out, not only
all the stains derived from leaves, tubs, crumbs
of bark, but all other coloring matter that can
prevent (be sugar from being pure, white.
An English of wheat means 6
bushels of 70 lbs., dr 500 pounds, being the
“quarter” of a ton or 2240 lbs.
The standard weight of a bushel of wheat
in England is 70 lbs.
When wheat in England is worth 80 shil
lings a quarter, it is equivalent to 10 shillings
a bushel —or J3O pence, and a peony is equi
valent to 2 ceius, or thereabouts.
Days Without Nights.—There is noth
ing that strikes a stranger more forcibly, if he
visits Sweden at ihe season of the year when
the days are longest, than the absence
of the night. He arrived at Stockholm from
Gotteoburg, 400 miles distant, in the morhing
and in the afternoon went to see some friends
—bad not taken note of time, and returned
about midnight; it was as light as it is here
half an hour before sundown. You could
see distinctly. But all was quiet in the street;
it seemed os if the inhabitants were gone
away, or were dead. No signs of life, stores
closed. - " •
The sun goes down at Stockholm a litte be
fore 10 o'clock. There is great illumination
all night; as'the sun passes round the earth
toward the north pole, the refraction of its
rays is such (hat you see .to read at midnight.
Dr. Baird read a letter in the forest near Stock
holm at midnight, without artificial light.—
There is a mountain at (he Bothnia, where,
on the 21st, of June, the sun does not go
down at all. Travellers go there to see it.—
A steamboat goes up from Stockholm for the
purpose of carrying those who are curious to
witness the phenomenon. It occurs one night.
The sun goes down to the horizon, you can
see the whole face of it, and in five minutes
it begins to rise.
Birds aod animals take their accustomed
rest at the usual hours. The hens take to
the trees about seven o’clock, and stay there
until the sun is well up in the morning, and
the people, get into the habit of rising late
loo. —From a recent Lecture hy Dr. Baird
at Cincinnati.
Horrible Revenge.—Dr. Radcliffe, who
was fond or the pleasures of the table, was
one afternoon comfortably disposing a bottle
of wine, when a countryman entered (he
room, and begged him to come immediately,
to his wife who was dying.
“I can’t help it my fine fellow—l can’t
move till I have finished my bottle,’’
Now, it happened that the countryman was
a large strong man, and the doctor a very
small one ; so it occurred' to the former that
his host plan was to sieze the doctor and car
ry- him off on his shoulder!. He did so ; and
while he was bearing him along, the doctor,
bursting with rage, exclaimed :
“You villain, Til cure your wife /” and he
was as good as his word.
Mrs. Skirl's says, the reason children are
so bad this generation, is owing to the wear
ing of gaiter shoes, instead of the old fash
ioned slippers. Mothers find it 100 much
trouble to untie gaiters to whip, children, so
they go unpunished: but when she was a
child, the way the old slipper used to do its
duly was a caution
KrA Western editor thus delivers himself:
Wo would say to the individual who stole our
shirt off the pole, while we were lying in bed
waiting for it to dry, that we sincerely hope
th>- collar may cut his throat.

by self-abuse or excessive venery, I do not know his
superior in the profession. I have been acquainted

“ This is, wilhont exception, the most comprehen

terms, it addresses itself to the reason of its readers.
It is fjee from all objectionable matter, and no par
ent, however fastidious, can object to placing it in
the hands of his sons. The author has devoted ma
ny years to the treatment of the various complaints
treated of, and with too little breath io puff and too
little presumption to impose, ha has offered to the
world at thu merely nominal price of 25 cents, the
fruit of some twenty years'most successful practice.

A Presbyterian clergyman in Ohio, writing of

upon thousands of our youth, by evil example end

habit of self-pollution without realizing the sin and
fearful consequences upon themselves and posterity
The constitutions of thousands who arc raising fam
ilies have been enfeebled, if not broken down, and
they do not know the cause or cure. Anything
that .can be done so to enlighten and influence the
public mind as to check, and ultimately to remove
this wide spread source of human wretchedeess,
would confer the greatest blessing next to the relig
