musn j^ARiJA AND j3rAI\DEN. Sowing Gross Seed. The general practice among farmers is to sow crass seeil in commotion with some nther cron In regions where winter rye, mid wheat are extensively cultivated, the ci-ass seed is sown iu the tall, at the time Slowing the grain, or soon afterward Gross seed is always sown in the spring with oats, spring wheat and barley, tin* idea cenerally prevailing that the grass needs shade while young, and the grain w th which it is sown affords the protection re- •mired This idea about shade, or protec. tion from the sun, has prevailed so tyng, mul been so generally accepted as the right tliimr to do, that few ever thiuk of trying anv other wav of seediug down land. There are however, exceptions to this rule, as wcl’l as to most others, and occasionally we meet farmers who have decided individual oniuions of their own, and except no the ories or practices simply because they are old and of long and respectable standing among their colaborers; and to those men we usually look for innovations upoucs- tab'ished systems in husbandry which fro- fluently result in improvements ot a pro gressive charactor. -Sowing grass seed alone is not a usual practice, but it is gain ing in favor wherever tested, espedially where the main object is a good stand of crass in the least possible time. The young grass springing h orn the seed among the inore rank glowing species, like wheat, rye and oats, is not only shaded, which is ot doubtful benclit; hut it is also crowd ed and half smothered, and the moisture i much needfld to support the tender root- Msorbed bi the coarser aud rankT grow- jM^thSmbich(they ure^urroupded. ftcienat th||Xn very rich softs two'etops TVlvrt be placed in direct competition, the' "weakest holding out until the strongest is removed by harvest, and after this, mak ing a good growth. But this double-crop ping of moderately good lands is an error which some of our best farmers have late ly discovered, and they now vary their practice accordingly. There is no good reason why a man should not sow grass seed, as well as auy of the other smaller kinds of grain, and if sown in the fall as early as grain, and upon land in good tilth, a good crop of hay may be secured the following season, provided the kind sown are suitable for this pur]lose. Ju all light and moderately dry soils, except in the extreme Northern States, clove seed may be sown at the same time as the grass, aud if put in early will tic- come so firmly rooted as not to he injured by the frosts of winter- The old idea that clover seed should ouly bo sown in the spring, doubtless originated among farm ers in cold climates, and where the soil was of a heavy tenacious nature much given to “ heaving out" plants in winter. Then, again, there are frequent instances where there has been an uneven catch ol the seed sown last fall or spring; the bare spots may now be re-seeded. Before sow ing the seed these spots should be well harrowed, aud if the laud is not rich, fine manure or some kiud ot fertilizer applied. A little attention and time given to im proving the bare places will largely in crease the yield of grass another year, be sides adding much to the appearance of the farm. If the weather is not too dry, the earlier the seed is sown in autumn tiio better will bo the condition of the plants for withstand the cold winter.—Exchange. Oats. Mr. J. T. Bose, of the Bock, Upson county is the most successful pianter in Georgia As the oat planting season is upon us now we give, lor the benefit of our readers, Mr. lteese’s method: In the first place, my ground is rich, broke my land with small diamond poin ted plows twJco, good„doep and. close. I then put about forty bushels of cotton seed to the acre, and sowed four bushels per acre of oats, aud plowed them with a small turning plow, deep aud closo. I sowed the first of October, and commenced graz ing them in November with my mileh cows. I had six head and kept them On them all the time, only when the land was too wet, up to the first of March; tut I think that a little too long. 1 cut them on the first of May I believe that these oats can bo made to make 200 bushels per acre, and I am going to try them next year. They will not rust ami they will make on rich land. I be lieved the same manure put on them that, is put on wheat to make ten or twelve bushels of wheat per acre, put on these oats will make fifty bushels per acre. They are the heaviest oats I ever saw, I made 212} bushels on 1 3-4 acres. ablo furnace. About a pint of t.tis mixture; r r will cover a yard upon the outside of a** house, if properly applied. Fine or course brushes may be used according to the neatness of the job required. It answers as well as oil paint for wood, brick or stone, aud is cheaper. It retains its brilliancy for many years. There is nothing of the kind that will compare with it, either for inside or outside work. Coloring matter may be added of any shade desirable ex cept greeu, for which there is no material that can Le used with lime. Spanish brown will make reddish piuk when stirred in, more or less deep according to quantity. A delicate tiugo of this is very pretty for inside walls. Fiueiy pulverized commou clay, well mixed with Spanish brown, makes a reddish stone color; yellow ochre stirred in makes a yellowish wash, but chrome goes further, aud makes a color generally esteemed prettier. It is best to try experiments on a shiugle and let it dry. TIME . Feeding Cattle. As the season for feeding is now rapidly approaching, it is proper enough that wo should begiu to think over how we aro going to do it this winter. The Nashville Rural Sun presents us with an article on that subject, the substance we sift out as follows: If cattle are sometimes stuffed and at others starved, they will soon go through the process of “ eating off their heads.” Iu feeding meal, we always want it ground fine,.as our experience is that three bush els of fine meal is equal to four grouud coarse, though an over feed of fine meal will scour worse than the coarse; this the feeder must guard against Always give each one a bo* to himself, so you know he eats what y<W Teed. him. > Don’t feedroo heavy at the start, bat gradually increase so as not to clog, as it is difficult to make profit on an animal that has been over-fed or foundered. We once tried a three-year old scrub steer until he was four years old, with a lot of young grades. The grades made a gain of 615 pouuds each in ten mouths and two days, and the scrub made 423 pouuds in the same time; and through the feeding season ho ate three pounds more of meal per day than any other iu the lot, aud I think full as much hay, though that was not weighed. He weighed at four years old 1,466 pounds, and sold at 4} cents per pound, while the two and two and a-half year olds averaged over 1,400 pounds, uul sold at 5 cents. Iu feeding, a few ru tabagas are a great help. Hay aud corn fodder fed alternately are better than either alone. ..A widow iu Baltimore put crape on her door. The crape remained there about week before the landlord made bold to interrupt her grief, and wbeu he entered he found nothiug there but the house. Her grief Wits so intense that she had inadvert ently removed all the furniture. The debt of nature which had been paid was supposi timis. The debt for reut remaius uncan celled. Aud yet they say that women are not calculated lor business. One Hoar and Twenty-Fife Minutes Quicker i THAN BT ANY OTHER ROUTE. this notice, appli-: GEORGIA, Madison county.

Jones, editor of the Southern Cultivator, said while the subject of forage plants was under dis cussion be wished to state some facts in reference to the nutritive properties of the different kiud of food used for stock. It is often necessary to mix different kinds of food to secure the best combination of flesh and fat-producing elements. Experi ments have been made in Germany to as certain what is the proper combination of theae principles. Ordinary fowl contains two leading elements, one of which sup plies the flesh aud muscle of the animal frame, and the other the fat aud heat. These two elements should bear a certain relation to each other. 1 n the combination producing the best results the ratio is one of the muscle producing to three or four of the fat produciug. Our common crops contain these elements in very different ratios. In coru fodder, it is one to ten, which is too small a proportion of the muscle-producing element in proportion to the fat-producing, in wheat straw they 1 to 15; iu oat straw they are 1 to 16; in aan millet they are lto3; so that ^en cut, id the dough state, posses- jtjttii, Iu corn ypwwi) -too much In'the fat Being elements. This TkhhIs to/our experience. . CqeA is i heating forraxifck stock iu our 'climate In summer. It is, however, excellent lor rattening animals. In oats (graiu) these elements are as 1 to 5 nearerMsovvect than lu corn, la wheat bran 2 to 3; in rye 1 to o. European field bqpn has l to 18, (one and eight tenths) snowing too much muscle producing for the tat producing elements. Tne proper medium may be attaiued by mixing two kinds of food. Thus corn and peas mixed makes the ratio about correct, uover hay is l to 3; Lucerne 1 to 2; Vetch l to a little more than 2.—Georgia Grange\ White Home Whitewash.
