A top dressing of manere on a new meadow, applied after the grain crop is cut, will not only enrich the land, but wall be a shelter to the roots of cur grasses, and its benefit will repay three-fold any expense incurred in applying it.

Almost any kind of compost, even if made of only sods and lime, will be found beneficial ; and a dressing of gypsum and ground bone of 100 pounds of each to the acre, wil] repay any amount expended for them.

Some may say that the fall of the year is too busy a season to allow of work of this kind being done; but if the farmer wishes to have payment for his labor at other seasons, let him plan out this as part of his years work, aud see that it is not neglected.
