It does not stand dry weedier as well nor is it as well suited for grazing. It doos, however, yield very heavy crops under favorable conditions. As for all grasses, tlie preparation of tile the land should lie very thorough -and the surface wall harrowed. The lnaunr ing should bo very heavy, unless tlie land is naturally rich. Stable manure, composted with cottonseed meal and kaiuic, or acid alone, is good, or if the laud is in Condition to respond to the application, a highly ammoniated pot- ash fertiliser will produce good crops. Sow the seed in September or October, February or .March, about 15 pounds to the acre. oitouNt) honk, ntssot.vitn bonk. Question s f! —What is the difference between gr illed .bone aud dissolved bone? How suoubl each beappiiod and to wita* crops? Answkh A—Fin sly ground ' bone, w icti pnre, contains about 22 per cent of phosphoric acid and 4 12 por cent of of ammonia. It is worth per ton more than tho dissolved bouj, because the sulphuric acid and water used to dis solve the bone also dilute it. Either is a fine fertilizer tor all fall sown grains and slow growing crops, because the phosphoric arid, at first not available, becomfs gradually •olublu mid .is then takun up by the developing plains. For the same'reason it is excellent for grass, grapevines or any perennial plains, winch all continue for an indefinite period to draw nourishment from the soil. If npplied to other crops, tome “IjiTr 1 * a ' luulli bu supplied, par ■ tioalnrlyp' on lands. ,4 ’“Frbiii the .tfiiitdd States ■fation rocorll No. 7, Ih'J), we find that: "The results indicated that iu soils not entirely devoid, of phosphoric acid and not of extremely abnormal quali ties, both steamed and nustenmed bone of proper fineness prodnojd vory favor able results, even when applied iu tho spring, provided tho soil was not-defi cient iu moisture. In soils dofloieiit iu water very different results were ob* taiued with all kinds of bone meal, bat it appeared that the rosnlts wore more unsatisfactory the coarser the bone.” It cuu be further said of ground bone that it benefits all crops; can be applied at all seasons of the year; will not in jure any tree or plant; is lasciug in its effects and is the cheapest form of fer tilizer, in proportion to tho benefits it imparts, that can be need. ixciuuiic. Question ll.—llow shall I prepare the laud, and whim shall I tow lucerne? What fertilizer is best? Answer 3.—The land slionld be made vory ricli by well rotted stable manure or fertilizers, and put in ai line tilth as for turnips, if necessary, plowing aud harrowing rojis ttwUy. Huw in narrow drills,in September or October and cul tivate. It i* important to keep tho orop free from weed* or grass. Ten or 12 pounds of seed will plant one acre. TKIIIIACINO. Quicstlon t—l iioilco that yon speak of terracing ss all iinoortaut in bmid iug np onr worn lands. Dan yon give mo a few points as to bow the work slionld lie done? >Do not hillside ditch es answer the same purpose ? A.nswkb 4 Hillside ditches have ■ been very aptly termed -“highway rob bers,"in that they havo swept away much of tie fertility of onr land* which might otherwise have boon pre served. The same difference Imtween terraces and ditches is that the first gather the washings from higher points and hold them, with thoir accumula tion of rich ■ deposits, while the latter gntlier anl, carry them off. Daring the first year or two after land is terraced the water ivill occasionally break over duriug'diaaVy rains, but If the founda tion has* been laid with a good 1-horse or 2 horse turning plow, so as to measure about three feet across at the base and -fir Med ftp with hoes where necessary, we can caculateou eventnalliy securing a oompact firm terrace. The boraks oan lie strengthened os they develop, and onor the terraces are well set all water that goes over the bank will flow iu a thin, broadsheet, leaving its val uable burden of plant food on or above the terrace. A good terracing level is absolutely essential without it we can not do accurate work—and will cost from $( 00 to 110.0-1. Full instructions for managing it can be obtained from the maker or seller.

At each position of the target set a peg, avoiding as much as possible sharp curves. Run a plow along the line of ‘ pegs to mark it and than drop down to the next tefraou, which should be 8 feet lower in a perpendicular line than the first.

Ms* nnre the ground very heavily in tho spring for onions, oabbage or bests, and •s soon as they are rmnoyed, plow or spade the gronnd and make it ftno and mellow toreoeiveyonr oelery plants. Don’t forget that tt is a waste of time aud labor to attempf to grow oelery on poor or badly prbpared soil. Aw The seed should bo powit from tho middle to the l&t of March in rieh ground and in drills 13 inches apart. Radish seed are son) times sown sparing* ly lu the drill* the wihsrjr seed. The radish will spresat in a f*w days, showing tho line of tho rows, and tha hoe can then be used between the rows before tha weeds and gross get a start. , When the plants aro throe to foar in ches high, cut off the tops, anti repeal this a second time as tft*-tttfclfs iwitto ud to’ grow; this will oanse a stocky growth and make thorn more uniform in size. When you have dag your po tatoes, or housed or so and off your oab bage or onions, prepare the lnnd from which yon took them for celery by deep plowing or spading, first applying a liberal dose of well rotted stable man <ure or oommerolal fertilizer. Lay off rows from three to four feet apart and. place a plant every six inohei iu tha row. Iu taking the plants from ths seed bed, try to get thorn of uniform site so that the growth afterward may be about the same. Both roots and leaves shoulfi be trimmed before setting oof, leavluf the roots about 3 1-2 inches long, aaA the leaves cut off sven with the top at the heart It is best to set out- planta during a wet olondy spell, and sho aid the weather t arn very hot and dry jut# after planting, they shonld be protected from the snu for a few days. During the early stages of growth, tho ground shonld be frequently worked—by Urn plow in field culture—and by the hon or rnke in garden cultnre. When thn loaves get 13 to IS inohes long the earth on either side f tha row should ha loosened to the depth of 2or 8 inehac Then the workman, gathering the leavea of each plant in one baud, holds tham in position while he presses the loosened earth around the stalk with the other. When this is fluished the earth It thrown from each side towards the eat ery with a plow. In the family gulden a hoe shonld be used for this purpose, . As fust as the celery grows the earth hi drawn to (the plants with Moss, until the time for bloaohinf arrives. Vhom the first to the middle of October oslsry should bo banked in order to tfieaoh it. To do this, commence about a toot from the plank, and throw np With a spade a bank of earth, covering all the eatery except a fow inohes of the ends af tho longest leaves. A few weeks in this condition will bleach it and it wilt then be re idy for nse.
