AGRICULTURAL. , ~ 'ZZZimiZZZL — ■ k—•- lowing Grass. —Taking one yei.r with Another, gras* iosd that is sown arly will generally inak* the b sf growth and yield; and for this ruasoa care should bs taken to havo tlift seed on hand so as to sow ia good season. Avery good plan ; m t, wait until after the uniddie of February, and when there is . light i fall at'snow, sow the seed broad- 1 ca*t. One of the principal advan j tapes of sowing grass seed on the i snow is that it is somewhat easier to iow properly,for where tin* seed is sown it will show plainly, and there is loss danger of skipping places or of se wing over parts of the field (ha second time. There is no Economy in stinting the seed If the best yield of grass is to be made it is necessary to get a good stand, and plenty of seed is essen tial to the end. Clover can be sown alone, with oats or with gnss. Asa rule, if grass seed is to be mingled with clover, orchard grass should bo us •and, for the reason that orchard grass and clover ripen at about tha same time, while nearly all other varie ties of grssr-es ripen somewhat lat er. And then the best quality of hay can no! be obtained o readily. Another goad plan is to sow when the ground is frozen, but is thawing out. The seed will sink deep enough in tho sail to germin ate, Some prefer to sow' clover, or even grass 6eed, by thoroughly pre paring th soil with a good tooth harrow’ and rolling if necessary, then sowing the seed and using a light harrow ©r brush to cover. Nearly, if not quite all grass seeds ara small and tender and need on ly a light covering to be in a condi tio* to germinate. Asa rule, the batter start to grow tho plants gat, tho better able they will be to withstand the heat and dry weathar in summer. And it is therefore quite an item to make a good early start by sowing ttie seed as soon as the condition of the soil will admit. Tha Century's Improved Farm Ttols. —Nearly all the improve ments that ever have been made in the nineteenth centry. At the be gitiiug of the present century the best implements they had were the old fashion v.ooden plow with a few pounds of iron clumsily fitt ed to the beam and mold board, the sickle, ©>* cradle, for the grain crop, tho hand flail for threshing grain and the scythe for making hay. The old time plow is described as made of wood, iron shed, large, ill-shaped aid cumbersome, drawn by from on© to six yoke of oxen, requiring ©n® and often two man to hold it, another to ride on tho leiru to keen it in the ground, s;ill another to keep it clear, and :lu drivers, sometimea four to six man, never less than two, to plow an acre a day. Now we have plows that, with a light soil, ou© man with two hors es will plow handsomely two and a half acres per day. Then there is a long list of cultivators and har rows, and revolving hoes ?.ah nu merous other implements, which prepare and cultivate tho ceil bet ter by far than ever before, nearly doing away wilh the hea, one man doing the work of several men with old-tini* tools. The mowing machine, wilh two horse, and a driver, will mow ten or twelve acres daily and the horse rake, two horses and dr'ver, will rake up twenty acres daily. V\ ith the sickle, or reap hook, man could rear) and bind hsfrdlran * * acre daily—now, with a harvester and binder, a man, wilh two good horses, will cut and bind fifteen to twenty acres daily. And so on through the whole lids of improve ments in farming utensils. Formerly with a hand flail a man would thresh six t© ten bush els of grain in a day; now a thresh ing machine, two horses and two ©r three man will thresh and clean hundreds of bushels daily. On the benanza farinß in Dakota and Cali fernia, they with a few teams reap, thresh, winnow and bag hundrods and thousands of bnshels of grain dsily. A Miner’s Experience. It falls to our lof to record an in cident Ihat causes a shudder in its contemplation, a week ago lasi Sunday Tom Ryan, well known in these parts, left William*’ ranch for a prospecting tour for the day. For all that Ryan is given to bibu lous proclivities. This day he was himself, as we have fr@m reliable authority, and had been for sever al days. Attiring himself to suit his intended excursion, Ryan struck out, and that was fho last seen of him for six days. Queries h id been made regarding his non appear ance, but no knowledge o! his ex isfeace could be obtained. Last Saturday William M, Cann and Frank Cavanaugh wer® in search of the missing man. A few hundred yards above the residence of John Williams, in Old Woman's Gulch, they passed an abandoned tunnel. At the suggestion of one fo sear;h the place with the possibili ty of finding the object of their search, with lighted candle they ee tered. Cautiously they grouped their way into tho tunnel, when suddenly they found themselves on tho brink ot a shaft. Peering ov er the edge with their lighted can dle tney could seo no bottom. They called out, but no answer came. Listening, Ihoy heard a souud; a sound as of som one breathing heavily. Again they called and an answer came. Assistance was (lien called, and by a rope Cavanaugh was lowered to the bottom of the hole, where lay Tom Ryan. “Hel lo. '* answered Tom, “havi you coc e t© stop to this hotel, to< ? I hare beta very badly treated bera " On being asked how he was, he replied that he was alr’ght. The man was out of his bead, but when told that he had bet ter conte ot while ropes were being put about him to hoist him up, he agreed, but was unable to stand with out assistance. He was brought up and cared for. He had been without food tor six days. The tunnel into which he had wandered, by actual measurement was 125 feet in length, at the end <f whi.-h was tho shaft, wfeieh n ea.ttred th:rtyfire feet, and down whioh tfee man plunged, Dp on examination ho was found to bn oousiderably bruised ou th sides-, with a ccntHsion iu the back of the bead at the has* o( t! o skull. At Isst accounts he was improving, Abnit twenty fi?a years ago a man by the name of Geoigo flush fell into tbe same shaft, but was fortunate enough 'o find an o ! d bhovrl at tb bottom wi b which he dug footboies in the j soft lava ano got cut. 15a t tiuoe then 'be shaft tu cavod in considerably at do tep, thus becoming too wide to straddle it. It was only by mere chance that Ryan was fouud.—Ex. Georgia, banks Couuty. To all whom it may consent —-W. J.
