Ton Dressing Of NLeadOws.

As an instance Of the want Of sdaPtness ol
Eastern agricultural papers to the circumstan'
ces Of Western farmers, we notice in late num-
Der If the Genesee Farmer, Q subscriber al
Cincinnati inquiries, What is the best manure
10 apply to meadow land, (timothy,) clay soil,
rolling; and the editor answers: Where leach.
ed ashes and lime can be hal at moderate
PRO e,they are probably the best fertilizers for
meadows, with the addition Of stable manure,
where the land is poor; aud where stable man
ure is not available, OF too expensive guano
may be sown just before a rain or in wet wealth
er, at 200 to 800 lbs. per acre;
Now If the above had been writion by Prof.,
Mapes for some of the worn out sandy soils OF
New Jersey or Maryland, we should not have
been at all surprised, but for an editor in West
ern New York to give such advice to farmer
in South western Ohio, is to our mind little
surprising, not to say ridiculous. The soil Of
all this region. especially around Cincinnati, is
strong limestone clay, and so far from leach
ed ashes and lime forming the best fertilizers
for meadows we do not hesitate to say that
these materials will not pay .he cost Of hauling
two miles for the purpose desiredI and as to
gusno, the farmer that would apply 1t to mea-
dow lands in this region, expecting to get his
money back, would be sub jeCt for Lunatic
Asylum.-[ohiO oultivatOr.
