growing and pasturing rape. With your kind vermisson, 1 will answer these re-

ua is first to grow rye, then rape. We thus put two crops and clean our ground moat thoroughly in one season. In addition to

quests through the columns of your well- conducted paper. in appearance rape is like the turnip of the Swede varieties, but its root is without bulb. An expert is required to mark the difference between rape and turnip leaves. It draws its supplies largely from the air, and, as it is « gross feeder, its roots run down intu the subsoil. It will grow on any soils well adapted to the growth of the turnip. Black humus soils will also grow rape well where turnips would run to weck. it luxuriates where there is an abundance of humus, as in lands filled with the decaying rovtlets of grass. Like al- most ail other planta, it growa very much better in rich than in poor soils.

it is better to select fields for the growth of rape that require cleaning, as is the case in growing roots. Any mode of preparation will answer that brings the ground into fine tilth and stirs it Aeeply. At our farm we grow rye first, which we cut with the binder and cure as hay, or put into the silo. If cat for hay, it should be done when coming into the ear. If put into the silo it should be cut when wel! cut into the ear. Sometimes we pasture the rye. The ground is ploughed when the rye is re- moyed. It is ploughed deeply sand care- fully, with the skimmer on the plough, and is then worked on the surface with the harrow until the time of sowing. It is then ¢made Finto drills about twenty-two inches spart with the double mould board ploughgwith marker attached. The best time for sowing is just after the completion of the sowing of the turnip crop, which, with us, is the latter part of June. The rape crop requires about two and a half months to grow to the full size. It ia, therefore, ready to pasture about or a little before the middle of September. The kind grown with us is kncwn as the Dwari Essex, and about one pound of seed is sown ituthe acre. The turnip drill is used in sowing. Ifthe ground is dry the sowing should follow closely after the plough, and the roller immediately after the sowing.

When the plants are about aa inch high then cultivating may commence, and, as is the case with cultivating generally, will give returns in proj ortion to its freqnency

Rape may be pastured with cattle, but lambs or sheep are preferable, as the cattie

they ure liable to injury from bloating. When the lambs are put onthe rape it should never be with an empty stomach, as they may gorge themselves. ‘hey should alav be tagged before going on it, as at first first the rape has a tendency to produce scouring. There is not so much danger from this cause if the jambs are fed a sma! feed of oats once a day, and are kept plenti- fully supplied with salt. When, however, they have not been taught to eat grain

readily, as they prefer the rape.

The lambs should have a sod pasture to which they are accessible at all times. They will lie down upon the sod when not eating the rape, and are therefore not sv liable to tamble over on their backs and die. Because of this danger they should be seen twice a day at least.

When early storms come, and especially when they come in the form of sicet, the lambs should be protected in sheds. They may there be fed on oacs and hay until the snow melts, or until shipped for matket, according as the state of the weather may bo.

The rape should be all eaten cff before the time of continued frost. When it be-

One acre of rape should | pasture ten lambs for two mypths, hence the value of the rape for this parpose may be readily ascertained, if the purchase price and also the selling price of the lambs may be ap- proximately known. This year we obtained $5 62 per hundred (live weight) for our lambs, which were sold to go to Buffalo. Thay were very light lambs, only averaging 935 lbs. each. Although sent at first to Buffalo, it is not at all improbable (hat they went on to Boston, where the lambs from your Island should go at not less than $5 per head. Lambs sre:very frequently ship- ped from both Buffalo and Cincinnati to Boston, oftentimes at the rate vi several thousands per day.

Careful attention should be given to both the castration and docking of the jambs. Thr

this, I feel safe in saying, that ifthe manne made fiom feeding the rye were put back upon the land, it woul be richer after having pro- duced the two crops then before the first was sown. This arises because of the fact, first, that both crops draw tupplics largely from the air; second that the rape draws from the

off upon the land. ; Tuos, Suaw. Ontario Agricultural College, Jan. 5, i189).

THE MEN TREATED WORSE THAN THE CATTLE ON OCEAN STREAMERS.

According to a Toronto despatch the evidence given at the session of the cattle investigation on the Jth showed that if animals were net treated so badly as Plim- soll would make out the men im charge of them were a great deal worse off. WN. Kennedy depicted «a scandalous state of affairs. He charged steamship companies with carelessness and fcremen with dis- hepesty The dressed meat trade was never a successin the United States and could not be profitably carried out in Can- ada. Dr. Baker, surgeon, explained how cattle are inspected and only knew of one small lot which got away without examination. Richard Meehan, cattle foreman, who has been in business twenty years, stated that inter- mediate passengers were trested worse than cattle, and that men were fed with stuff that no respectable man would give tu his dog. Men who were put under steerage gear had no bed or utensils, and were obliged to sleep on etraw and feed them- selves with their hands out of pails with which they carried water to cattle. The
