Il MiAes.-There are we know many
who raise but little hay, and chiefly rely
upon fodder FOR their cattle. To all suct
we would observe, thai milles, il grown
in rich ioamy soil, or one enriched b,
. manure, will yield from 3 70 4 tons o
good hay to the acre. Besides the hay
, it will give some fifteen or twenty bush
/ els of grain, which il ground makes mos
excellent food for either horses or mllcl
J cows. The time Of sowing is from IN
