broad cast) very important point is gain
ed if we get regular stand. For ifa do
zen seed fall in one spo, and none in foot
or two around them, the roots crowd each
other, and cannot expand. even if the spot
is rich enough TO nourish them all; and the
soil is thus exhausted, and the farmer only
gets for turnips some little white balls, that
may be swallowed as Pills, but are hardly
worth the trouble Of chewing. The ad-
vantage of mixing The seed with wet bran.
in preference to sand or ashes, is that the
seed will adhere 10 the bran, as il is lit
tie concare and adhesive. Whereas the
grains of sand and the seed being of diff.
fcrent weights, and the sand possessing no
adhesive property, the seed get together
in two or three different places, without
mixing thoroughly with the mass, so that
at one cast you may sow fifty seed and at
the next, perhaps not five.
If, however, any Of our readers prefer
planting in Drills, we can only say they
must do the best they can, for we really
cannot give them any information on the
subject.--Iemp. Advocate.
