Question 1.—What is tl»» holt time for turuins under ? -I have a lirld in luxuriant gr - . t;i. -.hall i turn them muter now or shall I wait until they are fully matured ? Answick 1 .— Tiii< question has al¬ ready been discussed at so;:io length in these columns, but wo ngrin call at tea - tiou to the disalvautagei of turning under a succnl-nt, green cron at this season. 111 tbn fi.stplnOJ, the partially matured vinos ricoay such more rap¬ idly tiiau the fully developed plants and this decay sots up a chemical ac¬ tion which releases nitrogenous prod¬ ucts, to be washod away by the winter rains. In tho mat are r plants this process Is slower, and we are enabled to hold tiieso products in the soil for a longer tinio to await the demands of the spring crop#. Again, the decompo¬ sition of a turned under green crop produces an amount of acidity more or less, which is often found injurious to succeeding crops, and while this may be corrected by an application of lime broadcast on tho plowed eurfaoe, we would Btroiigly advise against the prac¬ tice of planting a crop simply to return it to the land. Indeed, wo do not ad¬ vocate tho turning under of any crop without first getting some other bene¬ fit than the mcro improvement of tho soil. In the oar.o of poas, the crop can bo taken off either in the form of gath ored hay or peas, or the stock, liogs, cows and work animals can bo turned in to harvest it with great benefit to thomselvos and little injury to the land, unless i:i a very wot season. In the rosidunm of stoma and roots we have material almost as valuable, while tho inoroase in butter, pork and cold resisting fat, more than counterbalances the value of tho crop takon off. The following experience is pertinent: "A neighbor who is a very observing gardener gives the result of his obser¬ vations and experience on this subjeot. On a small piece of flatwoods, which he wished to prepare for strawberry plants, one summer, lie plowed down a rank crop of cowpoas when they were full of succulence, and for two years after¬ ward tho soil was so “sad,” heavy and lifeless that he could get nothing to grow well on it. So much fermenting vegetation in the soil soured and iuj’w od its texture very much. On the oth er hand, he had a crop of cowpaas in a young pear orchard, which, through the press of other work, he neglected to plow under until they became so heavy that they “lodged,” and he then abandoned the intention and left them to rot on the ground. Next spring, on plowing this orohard, ho found the land in an admirable condition, as mel¬ low and as light art an ash heap.” Question 2. — What is tho best time to sow Hungarian Brome grass, on what kind of land, and when should if. be cut ? Is it a good winter grass? Answer :2. — it may bo sown either In tho fall or early spring and should be cut just as it begins to bloom. Like till other crops the better tho condition of the soil tho bettor tho yield. On poor soils it grows about, a foot to a foot and a half high, in moro favorablo lo¬ cations and when properly managed it frequently attains a height of from throe to four feel Its underground roots grow most rapidly in light sandy loams, hut they also penetrate the stif fest clay and form a good sod. At the south it is esteemed more for grazing than cutting. It stands even protract¬ ed drouth remarkably well, and does not seem to be affected by sudden or extreme changes .of temperature. If the land is prepared the same as for other grasses and other conditions are favorable it iias been found to succeed where the finer grasses havo failed. In our section it remains green through the winter and seems to bo gaining fa¬ vor for winter pasturage. The seed should be sown nnmixed with other va¬ rieties as its habit is such as to choke out other vegetation. On this account care should bo exercised in selecting a location for its growth, On fields where rotation of crops is practiced its introduction is not desirable as tbe sod is tough and dense and might prove very troublesome Question 3 —Would you advis9 the buying of a nigh grade fertilizer at a high price, or one of lower grade at less cost? Answer 8.—All things considered, the high grade fertilizer is cheaper for the farmer. The per cent of plant food in a high grade of fertilizer being larger than in the low grade, the pro- Perfect Health. Keep the system in perfect or¬ der by the occasional use of Tutt’s Liver Pills.
