TIME OF CUTTING GRASS.


In cutting clover farmers generally Judge the
time from the appearance Of the heads, rather
than from an examination of the seed. Many
perler the time for cutting when one third part of
the heads have turned dark color.
Orchard grass, when ii grows large, should be
cut when IN bloom, else The stalks will be too dry
and hard to be relished by the stock. As this
grass grows rapidly, aud needs cutting rather eur
ly, it is well adapted TO growing with clover asiit
should be cut about the same time.
AS to the time of cutting herds grass there are
different oplnions some prefer the time when it
is in bloom others, when the seed is well grown,
that is full, as we say Of corn.
Judging from experience, and reasoning from
analogy, we prefer cutting herds grass when the
seed is full. We recoect that there was time
when it was considered that the best period for
cutting this grass was when it is in blossom but
after long experience, Farmers generally changed
their minds on this subject and had it not been
for the standing OF men who advocated the early
cutting of grass, we should have thought TINT this
practice ranked with the whilns and prejudices of
our iorefathers.
We have observed that grass cut when in bios
som, not only made far less bulk of hay, but lar
less weight, and though cattle might, at first, take
hold Of The enrly cut fodder more eagerly, they
would after awhile leave il for that which was
well grown and cut in its prime. Tho early cut
grass even when dry and made into hay, still re-
sembcs grass, and has less substance Yankee

IHE FARMERS SON

The Time is not far distant in our humble opili-
ion, when The farmers son will be among l.c well
educated of his day Already has lhe spur, gui,o
abroad The feelings Of all are beginning TO he
enlisted deeply in this honorable ca,se. No ion
ger is tins profession viewed, by ALL fit only for
the poor and Ignorant, bat is beginning to claim
the rank TO which it is SO Justly entitled. Men Of
learning and talents luve turned their attention 10
lis investigation, without the least conjunction of
conscience of having acted below their dignity.
They have learned that the occupation OF The
farmer, humble as it may have been considered,
can call into action most of the powers OF mind
and whatever may be the amount of his knowl-
edge il useful it can he brought bear either di
recty or indirectly; hence, the erroneous Opin-
ion that farmers need not he educated, Is fast pas
sing away, and ere long popular sentiments will
consign it to its legitimate abode, the shades of OBJ
livion No occupation is better calculated 10 call
forth The learning of man of science than TINT
of the farmer, and none in which he can engage
with more honor or to which more honor should
be attached. We believe that in time instead of
leaving the poor aud ignorant TO fill The profession
Of farming, we shall see Young men turning from
practical institutions OF learning, TO that of the
plough handle, fired with n laudube spirit to gain
honor and ainuss wealth from their occupation.
| When such state of things shall take place, ag-
rculture will be added us another to the enrned
professions, considered as honorable as any OF
them, and prove as profitable. Hills that are now
barren and neglected wastes will he brought inlo
active and profitable cultivation, waving with
bounti(ul h irvess, or set With the heavy cared
corn-then gadening smiles of plenty will cheer
our domestic circles, and boated purses fill our
pockets.

hIoSt Horrid Dedth-On Thursday morning, the
9th uit, EZRA GLEASON, resident OF tins village,
put nm end to his unhappy life, while confined in
The County Jail at Fayetteville. The deceased
was in the habit ofusing ardent spuits freely, and
il was while under its influence, thut he commit
ted the act which caused his imprisonment But
a few weeks since he was brought before one Of
our Justices and fined for brutality beaiing his IN
offending ,oite. lie however, after short impris-
onment, succeeded by the MD offriends, assuring
them that if released he would reform, in getting
bonds and was lhereupon discharged. Instead Of
Keeping his promise lie violated it, and took to his
old habit of drinking and beating his tcife, and was
again imprisoned last week. We arc informed
by person who visited his cell soon after the
event occurred, that ITS rails Cere literally covered
trith blood where tue unhappy man under the effect
of deliriun iremenS dashed his head That the
skull OF the deceased was broke in several places
and the face dsfigured, as well as the breast by
blows which he hal inflicted upon himself
"Never," says the genllensn, "were my feelings so
shocked never did witness such a horrd sight"
The deceased has left u wife and four or five
small children.
This horrd affair is to he attributed TO Rum
alone. Yes twas Rum that caused the unhappy
man TO lay violent hands upon the wife of his bo-
som, 10 take away from hei the hard earnings,
which she had accumulated from day to day, by
her own industry, for the support of her children
and appropriate it for the qualification of his own
depraved appetite. Who, who is accountable 70,
The deed ?-Let the public decide.
We do not aude 10 this shocking case for the
nurpose of wounling the friends Of the deceased
far he it from us. But for the purpose ofshowing
what Rum ,ciN do,what are It's effects upon the
human system.
May this event prove warning to every one
who is in the habit oftampcring with this bane OF
society," MAY it especially prove warning to ev-
ery Young man who is addicted to his cups, who
may have just began the downward course, and

upland business. There is here a serious mis-
take committed by many farmers. They lay
out more work than they can do well, or in
season, and the consequence is, nothing is
dene at the time, or as it should be. What
you do, do in season, and be sure to do well.
Being content to allow Il single year to
pass without correcting some error, or ma
king some improvement in husbandry, is a
thing not to be done. In conversation with
an intelligent farmer the other day, he remark
ed that the practice OF all fell behind their
knowledge, or in other words, none did as
well as they knew how. To put the knowl-
edge we acquire to others' use, should be the
aim of every one; and would soon do away
with the reproach that farmers are a stationary
race of men.
