From the New England Farmer.
KILLING OUT WILD GRASS.

The cheapest quickest and best method
OF killing out the bad grasses, is to plo1o
the land. If the mud is very deep, this
perhaps cannot be done, but if there is
not more than a foot or eighteen inches
OF mud, land ought to be drained enough
so that the pillow can be used. Hauling
sand or gravel upon swamp to form
soil, on top of the wild grass, is an end
less task. 1t requires about one hum
dred OK cart loads of earth to cover an
acre one inch deep, and it requires sew
eral inches to kill swamp grass. After
ihe land is ploWed, almost any sand. gray

ell or soil, is beneficial to a bog meadow,
applied to the surface and narrowed In
with the grass seed. should advise to
apply manure of some kind.
A compost of guano, at the rate OF
two hundred pounds to the acre, / think
is well adapted to bog meadows, which
contain the elements of fertility in them
selves, though frequently combined with
acids which render them unproductive at
their first exposure to the air. The &C
ton Of frost, after a swamp is drained,
and exposed to the atmosphere by plant
ing and hoeing for a season, usually is
found to add to their fertility.
No rule can be given as to the distance
at which drains should be laid from each
other. Frequently single drain across
one or two sides, will cut off all the wa
ter from several acres, but if springs
burst up at the bottom, drains must be
run from them so as to carry off the wa
ter. A foot or two of black mud, Is as
good as a greater depth, so far as have
ascertained, and usually is much more
easily cultivated, because cattle may
work upon it, however wet it may be, il
there is not depth enough of mud to get
them mired in.
On the whole, if l were working for q
:, farm in New England, 1 should regard
wild swamp Of twenty or thirty acres a;
coming in the way of recommendations
only a little lower than the convenience
of common schools and gospel privileges
= 1t is uphill work farming hereabouts, Oh
farm entirely upland, and 1 have found
no farming operation more satisfactory
than converting a dismal swamp into {
beautiful and productive grass field.

From the Vermont JOurna
TO WOOL GROWERS.

Perhaps it would be useless for a poor
man like myself to express an opinion
with regard to Wool-Growing. 1t is
well known to every laboring man that it
has become hard and improbable bust
ness, and that if we continue to dispose of
our wool at the manufacturers price, we
had better send our sheep TO the Slaugh-
ter house, and cease wool-growing at
once making Clothes-pins OIL. Shoe-pegs
is of more profit. But listen to what the
Wool-Buyer says: he comes along, and
with plenty of soft-SOap-and not the
strictest regard for the truth-tells you
no business is so profitable to you, that he
is running great a risk of losing all he
has; it is my opinion that if he had to
chase sheep and mend 6rslsh.tence one
season, he would not be so fat and liable
to govt as now.
Brother Wool Growers, we must learn
to say, No. We've had the wool pulled
over our eyes, and worked for sleeps
head and no pluck a day, long enough
say, hold on TO your wool, you thai
have not sold. The Manufacturer car
afford, and ought to be obliged, to pay
sevcnty-five cents per pound, for good
clear, fine wool.
Look at certain Manufacturer in the
town of B. But a few years ago he
was bankrupt, now is worth his $4,000,
How did he make liz money? Out o.
we poor deluded wool-growers. A part.
ner in this same factory told me that hi:
share Of the profits last year was $4,000
Look also at the manufacturer in the
town Of W., with all his pomp and splen
dor. 1t is said that his nett profit las
year was from 500 to $500 per day
lie never has attempted to buy wool c
his neighbors until this year, and why
p Because lie has been West and cannc
buy as he has heretofore, and will no.
e take ours, that is, if we viii be so rer
h obtging as to let him have it at his o,0
r price.
, My friends, would it not be best f
q the Wool Growers TO call Conventio
Immediately, and advise together upo
o some method TO manage their Wool in
f different way from what they have 70
merly? 1t is high time line was draw
r between the Producer and the Manufa
4 turer. As matters stand now the Ia
, tories are a curse to the laboring class
l. this country.
y You may think | have been rattle
If hard IN thus expressing my opinion, b.

g to explain any part of it, can do so sati
I faetorily.
