\ gaiirulturi. Suwmu 'I‘U Giuss.——The month of August is perhaps the best season of the year, in some respects, to lay hind down to grass. If the weather be at all favor- able the seed will soon spring up, and the young grass will get well rooted be- fore winter comes on, and will the next season be strong enough to yield a good crop. We know there are those who always prefer to sow grass seed in the spring wi.h oats or barley, but we have often found that when the crop was taken off in July, the sun would be quite likely to at'oreh the young grass. The land should be in good condition before being sowed with grass-seed, either from scicral years ‘eultivatioxnor from atop dressing just be— fore it is laid down. A peek of lllcrd‘s grass, and a bushel and a lialfochd-tup seed is the usual quantity to the acre. Some sow a little clover seed the next spring. At whatever season the land is -laid down‘let the work be well done. ‘tlie stones picked off, and the hind made smooth with a roller, so that the mowing machine may he run without difficulty, ' for in these latter days when the laborers . are few, it becomes very important to be . able to do the work with machines. Cr:t.i~:nv.——-'I‘his most excellent vege- table should now be making vigorous growth. It was formerly the custom with good gardeners to bee up the cartii during the season, to blanch it, but the best way is to cultivate it flat until late in the season, or three or four weeks Le fore the time to dig it. If it is only raised for home use, and is needed for ' the table during the autumn, then it will be well enough to blancli a part of the crop early. We have noticed that when it was licapcd up during the season it sometimes got rusty and \vornicateii,\vliilc when the new method was adopted, it came out very white and fine. It‘ the crop is not making good growth, it should rescivea dressing of guano, or super- phOsphate, which can be easily applied before a lioeing. Some who grow in _liniited quantities apply liquid manure with very excellent results. Cant: or Darnv Cows.——Dairy cows are only profitable in some people's esti- mation during the summer and autumn, and many iai'incrs actually have not enough milk in the winter to supply their own table with fresh butter, while others, to obtain some. give the two or three cows having the most milk about them the filthy dish-water and refuse from v the kitchen,to keep them giving some; the consequence of which is nauseous butter, which,likc the stuff they feed the cows with, is only fit for pigs to eat. Dairy cows . will prove the capacity of any man for the business of farming; for there is no stock whiclnso to say, resents parsimony so quickly, and if any one cannot make a lot of cows pay well neither could he make a flock of sheep cut wool enough. and make sufficient mutton to answer the purpose ol’kcepiiig. Penui'ious men V must change their disposition in these , days of progress, for the price of dairy produce is highly remunerative, and so also is the price of meat, so that there is a bouble inducement to feed well. The right sort of cows must be raised for lack ofjudgment will spoil other good qualities, and the best kind of food should be grown, and this where winter ilairynien fail; for the inangolds and car- rots iire the sheapest food to feed with hay and meal, and without roots no dairy will do well.—Cuunlry (i'enllcmuu' “ I’x'r IIixi."—'I'his is the advice of the American Star/r Journal, an inter- esting publication devoted to the interest _ of farm animals. The writer says:— “ “'e sometimes see men, having the care ol'anddriviiig a team of horses or mules, whipi ing the poor animals be- cause they do not understand their wish— es. Many a time the leader horse or male is unmerciiully beaten for no other reason than that the driver‘s order is not understood. If the driver. in such a case, should speak gently to the leader, pat it a few times on the neck to reasurc it ofhis friendship, take hold of the bridle andlcad it afcw steps in the direction he wishes to go, and all this without any excitcmtnt or anger on his part,the leads oil will always do its boot to piano him." “In driving a horse to a carrigc, how- ever gentle and well-trained he may be, something may happen to alarm or frighten him; this is no fault of his—he cannot help it. All he needs is a word or two of encouragement, gently spoken, to reassure him of his master's euro and presence, and that all is right. There should be no whipping done. The driver should recollect that he gets alarmed or frightened toe sometimes and would think hard of being whipped for ii.', \Vitrc'it GR.\RS.—Tlils is one of the greatest nuisances with which the farmer has to contend, especially on lands that have been long cultivated. Several ways have been recommended to exterminate it, among which is the planting of cab- bagcs, which so shade the land as in des- troy the grass, the potato crop will some- times accomplish the same object, but the only true effectual method is, to dig it out, and cart of the roots. \Vc know this is a very expensive way, but while this is being done the land is greatly improved for any crops, both by the dig- ging and the absence of this grass. ___”—___—___ To listen to the innocent pratlle of a little child, or to observe even its earli- cst efforts to crawl about a room, is not without a certain charm ; but as long as a child can neither talk nnr crawl, but is carried about in its mother's arms, a lump of animated dough, it is as uninter- esting an object to a stranger writ is possible to imagine. Experience is one of the oldest and bestof teachers, but her prices are ruin— oust high.
