Sowing Grass-Seed,
This is a work that no farmer should
neglect, and now, to-day, this very hour, is
the lime lo lliink of it. There are thousands
nf aces of woodland, thinly covered with
trees, be made into tolerable pas
ture by sowing seed in the ground while it is
soft in ih|i-spring. There is scarcely an old
pasture in'ail America that would not be ben
efited materially by simply scattering grass
seed uprm.tlie surface in the Spring. True,
it would be decidedly belter to harrow it; and
by the satnd operation we have seen.-mowing
Uii'l increased in productiveness2s percent..
With every; crop of small grain the farmer
should sow some kind of grass or clover-seed.
There is no manure so cheap as grass, for
the cost of seed is but a trifle.
Quantity of Seed per Acre. —Of timo
thy sen) we would advise half a bushel an
acre on strong land. In England, a bushel
f. sometimes sown. In this country, four
quarts are considered by some quite sufficient.
Dm recollect, il you sow grass you will grow
grass. If you sow weeds yotivwil) only have
weeds fur a crop. Which is most profitable?
Timothy sown in March will make a better
crop than if sown later. Wo have seen it
tug enough to mow in September. It is bet
ter lo lot it stand uncut. We have seen good
timothy crops grown from seed sown upon
the snow in February and March, over a
wheat field. This is a very good plan
where the sowing has been neglected in the
Fall, or when the young plants have been
hilled li v drouli..
Orchard Grass. —We advise a bushel
in id a half of orchard grass seed per acre,
mixed ni:h two quarts of clover seed. On
strong Unit orchard grass grows so stout (hat
ii makes rather coarse hay, but it is very
t'.'iiil i‘ i-li iii'od in a machine, and produces
a great cron For gVnzing it is valuable,
been use it gives early and very nutrious past
lurngf. I: endures severe drouths better
mm Miirv uiber kinds. If the seed is sown
alter itie ground has been freshly harrowed,
it will be covered by the rain. The seed is
'erv lighi, requires great care to sow it
even
Kentucky Blue Gross. —The seed of this
crissis light as orchard grass; in fact, it
I'ioks and fi-eis a* if it were all chaff, but it
prows without difficulty, and produces a crop
that i-. mo pride of Kentucky, and a mine of
wealth to her farmers. The “wood pastures”
of that Slate ore the beauty-spots of America.
Blue grass belongs exclusively to the rich
cnicareous soil of the West. Before sowing
tne seed upon woodland, the leaves should be
carfullv ranee off, and no slock allowed to
set toot iimn the land the first year. No
prenaraunn tun raking is required before sow
ing, pul tlie seed should be thrown upon the
fresh cartr. from ten to fifteen pounds of
dean seen per acre is the right quantity.
This grass will do very valuable for Kansas
settlers, for that must be a great grazing
State, in the proportion.
Clove' Sied is sown in the p/oportion of
lour quarts to me acre perhaps more gener
ally than in any other quantity ; but if u were
doubled U would probably afford more profit
to the farmer. And this we assume to be
the fact nf a!' grass seeds, that not one half
cnougn is usually sown. It is as true in re
gam io Hie number of acres sown as to the
ounn'i’v sown per mere. Farmers are 100
negligent of this most profitable of all crops
ever grown in this country. Let them look
to i. in nmr, for the lime to sow the seed this
Spring is at hunt..
A Brilliant Whitewash that will Stand
the Weather.
Take half a bushel of unslacked Lime, j
slack it with boiling water, covering it over j
to Keep in tnc steam,) strain the liquor thro’,
a line sieve or strainer, and add to n a peck !
of clean salt, previously well dissolved in |
warm water, three pounds of ground rice,
Ground to a thin paste, and stirred and boil
ed no:, half a pound o r powdered Spanish
whiling, and a pound of clean glue which
has been previously dissolved by first soak
ing it well and then hanging it over a slow
fire in a small kettle in a large one filled
with water Add five gallons of hot water
to the wnoie mixture, stir it well and let it
stand a few days, covered from dirt. It
■should he nut on quite hot ; for this purpose
it can be kept in a Kelt to on a portable fur
nace. It is said that about one pint of this
mixture will cover a square yard on the out
side ol a house if properly applied. It re
tains its brilliancy for many years. There
is notions of the kind that will compare with
it either for outside or inside. Coloring mat
ter may he put in and made of any shade
you like. Spanish brown stirred in will make
a red or a pmK more or less according to
quality. A delicate tinge of this is very
pretty for inside walls. Finely pulverized
common clay well mixed up with Spanish
brown before it is stirred into the mixture
makes a lilac Color. Lamp-black and Span
ish brown mixed together produce a reddish
stone cotot. Lamp-black in moderate quan
tities makes a slate color, very suitable for
the outside of buildings.
Poll Evil. —For the good of those who
have or mav hereafter have horses that have
poll evil or fistula, 1 would say, don't sell the
animal lor a trifle or give him away: but
cure him sound and well. I care noi how
long it has been running, it can be cured
with one dime ; yes, one dime's worth of
muriatic acid will cure the worst case of
old poll evii. First wash the sore well with
strong soap-suds, then drop eight or ten
drops of tue acid in it twice a day, until it
has the appearance of a fresh wound ; afler
which it should be washed clean with suds,
made from Castile soap and left to heal,
which it will quickly do if the acid has been
used long enough; and if it does not gef
well apply the acid again until it does cure,
for it is a sure remedy, and will not fail if
it is applied until the disease is all burnt out.
S. W, Cole says that hens will never lay
in winter, unless they arq made to “.scratch
for a living.” This is done by burying theif
grain se>eral inches in gravel. ' He statps
that eight hens, which did not lay an egg in
a month in wuiier, by adopting ibis course,
laid three times ns many eggs, the following
winter aa their whole food cost.

New York, March 17,11356, >
176 Second Avenue. £
My Dear Sir: —Your teller of February
reached me in Washington some linpc since.
I read it with much satisfaction, h was n
great pleasure to find'you retained so lively
a recollection of our intercourse in Califor
nia. But my own experience is that per
mahetftptind valuable friendships are most
often formed in contests and struggles. If a
man has good points, then they become sali
ent, and we Itnotr each other suddenly.
I had both been thinking and speaking of
you latterly. The Bank’s bullotting in the
House, and your movements in Kansas, had
naturally carried my mind back to our hun
dred and forty odd ballots in California, and
your letter came seasonably and filly to com
plete the connection. We were defeated
then ; but that contest was only an incident
in a great struggle, and the victory was de
ferred, not lost. You have carried to anoth
er field the same principle, with courage and
ability to maintain it ; and I make you my
sincere congratulations on your success—
incomplete so far, but destined in. the end to
triumph absolutely. 1 had been waiting .to
see what shape the Kansas question would
take in Congress, that I might be enabled to
give you Some views in relation to the proba
ble result. Nothing yet has been accom
plished. But lam satisfied that in the end
Congress will take efficient measures to lay
before the American people the exact truths
concerning your affairs. Neither you nor I
can have any doubt what verdict the people
will pronounce upon a truthful exposition.—
It is to be feared, from the proclamation of
the President, that he intends to recognize
the usurpation in Kansas as the legitimate
government, and that its sedition law, the
lest oath, and the means to be taken to expel
its people as aliens, will all, directly or indi
rectly, be supported by the army of the Uni
ted States. Your position will undoubtedly
be difficult ; but you know I have great con
fidence in your firmness and prudence.—
When the critical moment arrives, you must
act Tor yourselves—no man can give you
counsel. A true man will olwnys find his
best counsel in that inspiration which a good
cause never fails to give him at the instant of
trial. All history tenches us that great re
sults are ruled by a wise Providence, and we
are but units in the great plan. Your ac
■ lions will be dc'ermmeo by events as they
| present themselves ; and at this distance 1
icon only sny that I sympathise cordially
| with you, and that, ns you stood by mefirm-
I ly and generously, when we were defeated
| by the nulbfiers in California, I have every
disposition to S'and by you in the same way
in your battle with them in Kansas.
You see that what 1 have been saying is
! more a reply to the suggestions which your
j condition makes to me, ih-in any answer to
j your letter—which more particularly regards
myself. The notices which you had seen of
1 me, in connection with the Presidency, came
j from the partial disposition of friends, who
1 think of me more flatteringly than 1 do my
, self, and do not therefore call for any action
! from us. Repeating that lam really and
sincerely gratified in the renewal of our
friendship, or rather in the expression of it,
which I hope will not hereafter have so long
an intervil. I am yours, very truly,
' ’ J. C: FREMONT.
