From the Genesee Farmer.
Hints for September.

This is the month for seeding, and its
preparation. 10 the region where the Nv
has prevailed do not sow too early, and in
no case before tn 10Th. Brine and lime
your seed-a process that many object TO
on account Of the labor aud trouble, but il
is an effectual remedy against smut.
The following process answers every pur.
pose, with little labor. Alter a thorough
wlnnowing through the mill, put the seed IN
heap and sprinkle over il fine salt, about
peck TO 10 bushels, and then dash on wa
ter from small BASIN or cup till the brine
shows itself on the floor. Shovel 4, over
two or three times, and leave il over night !;
add as much slaked lime as will adhere 10
the kernel, and If not moist enough add
more water. II is much sooner done than
floating 1t in tub Of brine, and equally ef.
fcacious. =
II you sow late, or on soil liable to heave,
put more seed TO the acre-and If you wish
to lay II down as meadow, aud mot for a
regular rotation OF grain, SOW your Timothy
with the grain in the fall. There is no 9TH
er certain method, as dry May or June is
fatal to spring seeding with that grass
Timothy is Of very little use as fertilizer
and is detriment 10 the wheat crop,-and
is only to be tolerated, as sown with wheat
for the hay and feed il produces. Clover j,
the only cheap. natural pabnium for wheat
it contains nearly all the elements required
10 produce il.
See that your fallows are well and per
fecily drained. Do not trust alone to thl
pillow let the hoe and shovel be put in req
uisiiion to deepen and open all Instructions
So much wheat was winter killed the pas
season that great quantity Of seed win b
produced many crops that we have observ
ed, the grass seed. ut ordinary prices, vii
be worth the most money. In those caseI
The threshing machine, without the separa
tor, should be used, or most Of the seed will
be lost.
The kinds Of wheat now preferred in THU
wheat region, are the Improved White Flint
Soule's, aud Hutchinson. A sample OF Ell
Their, compared with the trash that Gomez
from some quarters Of the West, is eau
ton to Grahamites
The White Turnep should now be thin
ned out. IL sown too thick. leaving the widtI
Of hoe blade between each plant.
II you wish thoroughly to eradicate al
weeds from the Garden, now is the time /,
do it, as all the foul seeds have by this tim
4vegetaied-or il they again appear the
have not time 10 ripen.
Bud young trees Immediately, and use Il
all cases well formed and we'll ripened buds
from large and well ripened wood.

WATER Poor BooTs.-The following ex-
tract from Col. Macerone's " Seasonable Hints"
appeared in the Mechanics Magazine, Feb Sd,
1883. After advocating the utility Of sheepskin
clothing for persons whose employment renders
it necessary that they should be much out Of
doors, &c., Col M. says:
~ will not conclude without inviting the at
tcntion of your readers to cheap and easy way
of preserving their feet from wet and their boots
from wear have had only three pair Of boots
for six years, no shoes, and think ] shall not
require any others for six years to come. The
reason is that treat them in the following man
ncr: | put pound Of tallow and half pound
OF resin into pot on the fire When melted
and mixed, warm the boots and apply the hot
stuff with a painters brush, until neither the
sole nor upper feathers will suck IN any more
If II is desired that the boots should Immediately
take polish dissolve an ounce Of bees'-wax in
an ounce of spirits of turpentne, to which add a
tea-spoonful Of lamp-black A day or two after
She boots have been treated with the tallow and
resin, rub them over with the wax and turpcn
tine but not before fire. Thus the exteSior
will have coat Of wax alone, and shine like q
mirror. Tallow, or any other grease, becomes
rancid and riots the stitching as well as the leath-
CIR; but the resin gives il an antiseptic quality,
and preserves the whole"

Analysis Of Soils--Agricultural
School.

DR LEr-Dear Sir 81 am favored with
your note Of the 9th inst, containing some
Of your views touching the establishment OF
an Agricultural School at Rochester.
You do not oyerraie the importance to
the agriculturist Of having correct analyses
OF the soil he culliyates, as can testify
from experience. Had my different fields
been analysed for the pas, three years, and
MANFRED with reference TO the crops 10 be
grown thereon, supplying instead of stable
manure those inorganic substances that were
needed, il would have been hundreds il moi
thousands Of dollars 10 my poeko..
Please 10 consider me subscriber TO the
amount Of 800, or $500 should the latter
sum be necessary, upon the terms specified
in your note; and believe me,
Your obi serv'i, ]. w. BissELL
