ASHES AND MEADOW LANDS

ACIiI-S An u NL&AAJOAf iS+A4NIs
Where ashes aud other mabures, are up
ulIed directly 10 meadows, ,he spring IS
found the best time, as the Effect Of the ap.
pIcauoa Is oiorc immediately felt. The
quantity is regulated BY The amount Of ash
es or manure available, or The steri,,y Of
the land. We have used from 80 70 90
bushpla Of ashes per acre, aud 10 all cases
with The hes, effect. We have uPP!iad ITO
pIow lands by spreading i equally as posi-
blei the spring. We, lauds are benefited
By draining II previous to its use, but is val
liable 10 correcting the ac!dity Of even such.
It's no, common nov, however, on well cul-
iiyaled farms 10 apply tie ashes or manure
directly to the grass crop. X IS given 'c
corn and roots, followed by grams ard gras-
scs. and the meadows rs well as tiled lands
follow the course Of rotation.
Some farmers turn their animals into Their
meadows as soon as they are moved; but
this IS a very bad practice, as The roots
should have time 10 recover from tho check
they receive from the cropping, and this IS
best done BY the undist1rbed growth Of the
aftermath, In no case should meadows be
grazad close, and no auuais should be ad,
muted INTO then IN The sPrng. Oar cxpe.
ftence would show, that ualess pressing Nc
cessi,y exists, It is better 10 never alloy
neadoWsto be stezad, as the second growth
preserves the roofs IRON the effects Of win
ter, and in their decay, constitutes yaIua
5ia top dressing for the coming crop.
Meadows which il IS convenient 10 sub.
}ect to a course X ro'afica have been found
to be greatly benefited bf dressing Of
ashes OF manure, followed b thorough
narrowing. In such cases 1t IS an excel
lent Plan to SOW new grass SEEDS. which is
ia fact a renewal Of the meadow.
