    AGRICULTURE.
isimpiNG DOWN LAPEDS TO ORAN&
To best prepare a field for seeding down,
attention should first be given to draining. If
it is naturally cold and unproduotive, or if
water lodges in any portion of it; diteheo
should at once be opened through it. 'end laid
with good under-drain. Surface &tau are
apt to get filled; and coarse grasses and weeds
grow up in them, which interfere with mowing
and prevent the flow 'of. water. Draining
finished, spread the mainly and put in the De.
Do both of these works thoroughly. On poor
sails manure is important to give grass a good
"Catch," and to supply it with fOod afterward.
Deep plowing and a faithful harrowing are
needful to bring the land into fine filth and to
the roots of the grass to spread out and pene
teatelleep where they will flourish in spite of
drouth.
It is in dispute whether, in seeding down, a
few or many varieties of grass seed should be
used. For a pasture. it is obvious that several
sorts are preferable to any one. One.sort gives
us an early growth, but dries up in mid-sum
mer. Another starts later, but holds on well.
Others grow bee.t in autumn; some grow best
on light soil, others on heavy ; some are fibrous
rooted, and grow test near the surface; others
are top-roos rd, and draw their food from below.
Animals crave a vaeely gegtesee, aed theive
best on Etta - a diet. The Eaglish make the
combination of grasses more of a study than
we do. They ofteneow six or eight kinds of
seed, and sometimes more. An experienced
farmer of our acquaintance favors only a
moderate number, ai follows For seeding as
acre, ten pounds red clover, five pounds white
clover, one peck of timothy, atd a half bushel
red top. lie salts this mixture down with two
bushels of p'aiter. - Mr. A. B. Dickinson re
commends six quarts timothy, four ot. red top,
two of blue grass. two of white Holland clover
and four of red clover. 'When several kinds
are sown, that beat suited to the particular soil
will generally ran the others out, and in time
mainly occupy the surface.
Other questions relate to the time of sowing,
and whether the grass seed should be sown by
itself or with another crop. It is quite a fa
vorite practice to seed . down in early autumn,
say September, and usually with rye or winter
wheat. T'-e argument for this is, that the
preparation - of the land for wheat or rye is
just what it net ds to make the grass catch well
andbrow ; and that by getting a good start in
autumn, it makes a stronger growth the next
Season than it would if the seeding were de
ferred until the spring. But sometimes the
preceding crop (say potatoes) is slate one, and
cannot be got effendi October ; and sometimes
other farm work presses so hard in September
that stocking lands to grass cannot be attended
to. In emelt castle spring seeding must be adop
ted. Get the ground in order as early as possi
ble, and sow with oats. barley or spring wheat,
making the grain crop rather Not; so as to
give the grass all possible chance. The grain
crop will shade the grass plants until they get
well started, and then it will be removed in
time for the grass to get strong before winter
sets in. if the soil is cold and backward in
spring, it is advisable to plow it late in the pre
ceding fall ; it can then begot ready quickly in
spring tor seeding. Some of the beat farmers
prefer sowing grass seed without any grain
crop. One crop at a time, they say, is enough.
The grain is a coarser and more exhausting
crop -; - A t leteeferee with the growth of the ten
der grass, and steals away its food. One of
the chief objections to sowing grass seed alone
is, that weeds are apt to get the start of the
grass. When grass seed is put in alone,
the
ground should be cleaned and tilled with spe
cial care, and a large ambunt of seed be sown,
so as to occupy the whole surface at once, - and
produce a fine hay.—American Agricaltutalitt.
PRECA.IITIONSAGAINSITHE WEATHER.
Science has noCyet enabled man either to
certainly predict or to change the wesithei. Al
though in vim-al, the succession of the sea
sons, seed time and harvest, are guaranteed by
the Almighty Ruler, yet they are not alike
propitious to all localities. At times the North
is blasted with untimely frosts, while the
Booth is fervid with sunshine; the East may
be parched with drouth, while the West is re
joicing in refreshing eliowera. But the culti
vator may do something to provide bieteelf
against each contingeneres: First, by a mixed
husbandry. If corn be stinted by continued
rain, the grass in the meadow and pasture
will grow with luxurianie, and what is lost in
the plowed field may be found in the cattle
yard and the haymow. - Ile who depends open
wheat alone may grow rich if the snows of
Winter and .the rains of Summer are propi
tious, but be may able lose all when the seasons
change their aspect, and. are unfavorable.
Thousands have paid a heavy price for the ex
perience by which this lesson nas been learned,.
and no longer trust to a single crop
Draining is. a most efficient regulator by
which to couoterbabmeein some measure the
effect of wayward seas o ns. If there be too
great rain -fell, the water_ speedily finds an
outlet from the roots which it would other- ,
Wise drown. If drouth occur, the porous soil
is enabled to draw moisture from beniath, and
also condense it from the air which can artiet
from above. Corn on a well drained field will
pass safely through a soak or. a dronth which
would diminish, by one-third, the field from
an undrained, compact sail. Frequent stir
ring of the soil, keeping it loose and light, is
of paramount imporianor, especially in die alb,
The rapid evaporation which goes on at the
surface, under such circumstances, cools the
adjacent air, and causes - it - to deposit cipious
dew, and moisture from below will also bo
drawn upward to supply the wilting plants.
If, in addition to this, mulching be practica
ble, to prevent the too rapid escape of mois
ture, drouth maj be resisted for a lengthened
period. This may ba done in the garden and
fruit yard, and to same 'manila the corn-field,
where straw or refuse hay is plenty
It is less easy to keep grass lands in heart
during dronth, and other measures should be
"warted to weeps the mock of cattle is large.
sad the amount of pasture and meadow only
just sufficient to carry them through a favora
ble season. A field of corn or millet should
be sown the present month, to ba out and fed
green in August and September. The latter
plant resist. dronth even better tbau core, Mid
an acre will yield a supply for several head of
cattle during the period when drouths are
most frequontly injurious to pastures. There
need be no load, it tae crop be not wanted to
supply summer deficientoy. A feed from the
soiling patch at night will make itself felt in
the milt pail in the morning, and what cannot
be prefitiabiy used in this manner can he cured
and tired to advantage in Winter. There is
alwaya.leas difficulty in di-posing of supera
bundance of feed, than in eking out a short
supply, and the wise nusbandmen will endea
vor to err on the safe site, if at. all.
CARE OF FARM IMPLEMENTS&
George E. Blakelee, of Lorain county, Ohio,
sends the following communication to the Ru
m/ American, on a subject which interests all
farmers; but only a portion of them, we ar e
pleased to any, require the information. He
uayit
Titanium& of dollars are lost by the neglect
of farmers to take proper care of their farming
tools, which a l.ule outlay and care would
save. Alt the tools and impip men t o o f wood
need by the farmer - should be kept well painted
and bloused. They not only look mach nicer,
and last years longer # but they show evident
algae of thrift and taste. One of the most
durable and neatest paints is a light blue. This
color may be made by soy farm-r. Take
white lead and oil, and mix to about the thick
a s!. of cream, then - add Prussian bine to suit
taste. Green paint m-y be made by putting in
Oen in place Of the blue. A paid eontpesed
Of equal parts of white lead and yellow ochre
mixed with oil is very durable, bat does not
look so neat as blue or green. To One pint Of
ady paint there should be added one gill Of
Japan drier or liquid boner. It is equally
essential to preserve tools of iron and steel
from rusting; and this can be etlectnally.dbne
by applying s coat of three parts .of lard to
one of rosin. Apply with a cloth, or brush, a
good coat whenever a tool is set away for a
while. The preparation can be made in any
quantity, and kept for a long time.
FEEDING HOGS.
A correspondent Of the Deafen Cultivator,
who ineiets that the food, for hogs should
.al
woys be cooked, and, in anld weather, fed to
them warm; and in a warm place, *gives the
following statement of his manner of prepa
ring the daily foed, and the cost thereof, for
his swine; his business being chiefly to , raise
pigs and ohosts for sale:
Take six pounds of beef scrip; at a cost of
nine cents, boil in tw.i pails of water, scald in
two quarts of corncob meal at a cost of three
cents, add six pails of water, and you have
good swill enough to feed six store hogs and
eight small shoats once, at an expense of
twenty-four cents. This done twice e - tch day
is Fliffioieneto km breeding sows or Btore
pigs. in good condition. This is the met
quantity lam feeding to the number of hogs
mentioned. I slaughtered two fat hogs last
fall, fed in this way until the time to fatten
them arrived, after which they bad their usud
feed thickened to a dough with corn sun cob
meal only. At the age of sixteen months the
two weighed over 1000 pounds.
