Tito difficulty with paatnre in July
and August is tbo drought, and c t is
affocts tiio small and so ue other grass
os more than the deep rooting ones
vo.eh ore also the stronger growing,
Fhese last are m . represented by the
■o'hard nod Kentucky blue grasses,
•‘'he.-- are adapted to strong, deep soil,
iae t. of our river valleys, support
r. by ai . of fertilization a fresh
ve ca~\ ig the season as a rule,
i often whiie other grasses would
fiih -he exception being a severe
drouth, r vhicta the strong grasses
stiii > utain heir hold while the mb¬
it perish. Timothy, with its
l root, is one of the first to suffer;
lo England, where the climate is moist,
these and other grasses flourish. So
they do with us in a moist season if
aided by fertilizers where required,
which bring them to the surface and
expand their growth. But we must
make allowance for drouth, and estab¬
lish our grass lands accordinly. Sow’
the strong grasses early in the spring
on well prepat ail rich ground, and cover
with smoothing harrow or bush drag.
About twenty pounds of orchard grass
seed with a proportionate quantity of
Kentucky blue glass, will make a thick
set, and a crop or two of hay may be
taken from it the same season, depend¬
ing how rich and well prepared the soil
is. After that it may be pastured; but
the first season it wants all the chances
to become established. Stock turned
on it would interfere wita this, the
ground remaining more or less hare and
soft from its having been worked in tho
spring. I would advise keeping off
stock in the fall also. If the ground is
of a moist character, avoiding the wet,
timothy and red-top will do we'l I
have known them to do remarkably
well, growing two crops of hay (the
first early cut) Tn a season, or affording
excellent and perpetual pasture. But
theie is not much soil of this descrip¬
tion. It occurs where watered by small,
yet durable, springs, with sufficient
drainage to prevent an excess of sur¬
face saturation Land facing the north,
having considerable depth, with a good
' p'ropUTvieJ of clay well mixed with the
sand, forming a somewhat compact
loam, will also grow these grasses ai d
others not adapted to dry soils exposed
to the more direct rays of the sun, in
clud ;.g mode particularly those having
southern inclination. As to cutting
me clows more than once, it should be
mad ' the practice for various reasons.
It increases the quantity cf Imy and
improves the quality; it also aide iu
keeping the sod established, thickening
the growth. Tho first cutting is neces¬
sarily early, being done in June, when
tho weather is comparatively cool and
moist, and the plant still gre a and vig¬
orous, thus pushing forward at cnee tho
second growth, which will occupy the
laud and form a protection against the
boat and drought which soon after fol¬
low. The time when the usual single
cutting takes place exposes the newly
denuded surface to the midsummer ;e
vor. St is true that drought ami heat
will sometimes set in in June, and moist
weather follow in July, but the. reverse
is ofteoei tlm care.— The Country Gen

The most experienced an i skiilf u

and watering, by exposure, fatigue, long
journeys without fond, then by over¬

■ The New England farmers believe
| that carrots are a very valuable horse
food. Although they contain eighty
five per cent, of water their influence
iu the stomach on other articles of food
is most favorable, conducing to the
most perfect digestion and assimilation.
In England beans and carrots are
continually used as food for tbo horses
which do the hardest work.— Macon
