I uramn hi.ti Hi: AT rn: wii th. BY FRANCIS FONTAINE. (Continued.! TIMOTHY Comes next to Bed clover in import am'o. It is a surface-rooting plant, Specially adapted to bottom land, ft will pay on such land better than I fcrn at the rate of fifty bushels per HEcn\ It commands $5 per ton more Rpmi clover, but it is not so remuner -1 at mi on upland as clover. Sown up on our bottom land, it is followed the [ fl: st year by a luxuriant crop of Crab EKruss, thus yielding two crops per I annum. It grows from throe to four feet high and yields upward of two per acre, it cannot be excelled by any forage crop in quantity, qual ity or money value, unless it be Hun garian Millet, which is uotarival, in asmuch as it, is only an annual plant. Well-cured Timothy hay can always be sold here on tho Tana at from tfcin to S3O per ton, if nicely packed and preserved. Like clover it is peren nial, lasting sometimes eight years. Broomsedge, however, renders it accessary to plough it up every three or four years. That this pest of Southern meadows may be extirpated, plant corn on Timothy or clover sod. After corn is gathered, sow early In Autumn, on clover sod, Timothy; or on Timothy sod, clover; the two will be found coming up together and will form the best hay. One is a legumin ous plant, feeding on the subsoil und the atmosphere; the other a surface i plant with lateral roots, pumping up I the water of life. Seasons are apt to suit one or both. The objection to *Stlie mixture of clover and Timothy is that they do not mature at the same time. HERPS ORASS OR RED-TOP til peculiarly adapted to the thousands Of acres of wet swales, now so protit less to the farmer. It is a plant in digenous to South Carolina and Geor gia. As maize will not ripen in Eng land, so our best glasses (ire indigen ous to the American continent. Al though most grasses found here In a state "f nature are annuals, Herds gra-s is an exception. For the South at large, we think it our best bay gra- ; there is no reason why it should not succeed all over Georgia. We know of one meadow in this Bounty / Bartow > which has been set in Herds grass for twenty-five years consecutively, its owner claims that it is worth to kimSeOperannum ; and yet skeptics assert that it is not profit able togrow grass in Georgia! Herds grass is our hardiest cultivated grass; it tills up a vacant place, and luxuri ates in a soil when clover would pine, and Orchard grass would prove un remunerative. Its yield is about half that of clover, furnishing a brighter hay. THE PASTURE. R- Orchard grass is par r.rrellrncr the ginasturo grass of this section. It also affords excellent hay and grows to about the same height as Timothy. All things considered, it Is more val (jftblo even than Timothy. We never jjbw it by itself for hay. Sown in the surrounding the planter's Some, H carpets the earth with green before Blue grass appears, and for a long time excels the latter. It is an Essential to the lawn in this climate ami is better adapted to the soil than the Blue grass. Blue grass, like Lu cerne, requires throe or four years to mature perfectly; then it forms a matted sod. Orchard grass will do this in half the time and should be Bwn with Blue grass, lted and White ©lover and mixed lawn grasses. While Timothy a southern plant— has taken the lit st. place at the North, Orekard grass, though celebrated in Europe, will not do well at the North. BERMUDA ctIIASS. | If there be any doubt as to the val , tic of Bermuda grass to the cotton planter, let him procure “Randall’s Sheep Husbandry in the South’’ and run l the statement of Mr. Affleck, of Mississippi If his doubts are not set at rest, let him go to middle Geor gia and find plantations that were abandoned years ago, now restored to fertility by its matting roots cling ing tenaciously to the remnants of (Boils and gradually imparting to it a new life. Of all people in the world, wr most need grass. Our humus destroying crop, cotton, requires u soil of so light a texture as to become the easy victim of Spring floods bearing away to the sea those val uable salts, upturned by that symbol of defective tillage when used entire ly - the one-horse “turn shovel.” <5 Cotton, “how many sins are com mitted in thy name!” “An inch of water, as it falls upon art acre, weighs about one hundred tons, and over ten iScres, it is one thousand tons!” Our mm fall is greater than in London, Kiris, Berlin, Vienna or St. Peters burg, and but for the moisture caus ed in Oreut Britain by the gulf ■ream, we ought to rival that ©Oiintrv in the production of hay. W • will never learn the value Hf water and nitrogen-giving air until we raise clover and the trasses. How does England protect er railway embankments which, in like oar cotton-gullied bill . sides, bear sad evidence of neglect? S'l:c answer is, Grass. The only val |ap of broom-straw, after its first early Ktagc, is that it will in time restore SOurdenuded hillsides.
