INDIAN Corn FOR SoLrNG G.-We cannot
too often remind our readers Of the great ad-
vantage of sowing corn for fodder. where il is
valuable, which is always the case in the vi
cinity Of cities and the larger class Of towns.
BY commencing sowing the latter part Of
May, and continuing the operation each sue
cessive week or ten days till August. con-
slant supply Of choice food will be secured
during the remainder of the season. when it
will be most wanted. The natural grasses Of
the pasture, when closely fed, begin to give
out in July; and if this season proves dry,
they frequently continue short for several
months. A comparatively small quantity Of
land, richly supplied with manure. finely pre-
pared and cultivated, will yield an immense
quantity Of sweet nutritious fodder during
this time Of drought. From the experience
Of our best dairymen, ah acre of corn, thus
cultivated. will supply ample food for four
cows during three months. Ii may be fed
from racks or hangers in the yard or in the
stables, if they are not too warm; or, it may
be scattered from cart upon the ground, az
ter which the cattle may be admitted, when
they will deyour the whole, stalks as we'll as
the blades.
If the fodder should be wilted few hours
In the sun, previous to giving it 20 the ami
mails, it is believed to be more wholesome.
and less likely to produce hoven or wind in
the bowels. than when given to them green.

Another states that he left Madrid in order to
