Sowing Timothy Seed.

One of the great errors among Among
American farmers (says the Valley Farm
er) is, to defer certain kinds of work until
the latest possible period, and this remark
applies particularly TO seeding meadow
land; too general practice is to put of this
work until late in the spring, and then 10
sow the seed upon oats or winter grain.
To insure good stand Of timothy, the seed
should be sown in the fall uuaccompanied
with any other crop. For a profitable
meadow, no crop requires more thorough
preparation of the soil; this should be done
by at least two good plowings, rolling and
narrowing. If the season is wet, the ground
after it has been rolled, should be harrow
ed, when The seed may be sown without
covering. With favorable season more
seed will vegetate and grow if left 10 be
covered with the next rain, than if covered
with the harrow or bush; much grass
seed is entirely lost by being covered too
deep. If the ground is of compact, heavy
character, or if rain is not expected, light,
fine toothed harrow may be passed over the
ground, after the seed has been sown, but
on loose, open soil, it is better not to har-
row in the seed at all.
QUANTITY OF SEED PER ACRE.
The quantity of timothy seed allowed by
some farmers is one gallon to the acre; this
is not enough; six TO eight quarts is none
too much, and many eastern farmers sow
twice this quantity; if the grass does not
occuPy the ground, weeds surely will, but
where there is an abundance of seed sown
the quality of hay is much finer and better
If bushel CT seed is sown on eight or ten
acres OF land, as is the custom of many
the hay is too coarse and woody 10 be pala-
table TO either cattle or horses.
TIME OF SOWING.
If favorable rains occur the middle Of the
present month is the most suitable period
for sowing the seed, but any time during the
month will answer, and with a favorable
fall, as late as the tenth OF October has
been found to answer.
A writer in the Southern Homestead,
dating at Richie Court Hoase, Va, after
remarking that September is better time
to sow timothy seed than March or April,
says February is better time than either,
and that in several years practice he had
never failed 10 have his ground well seeded.
1t will stand the drought better in spring or
summer than if sowed in the fall. His
practice is 10 thoroughly prepare his land
in the fall and let it lay until January or
February, and SOW the seed upon the
snow.
This, no doubt. is better than sowing in
March or April, when dry weather so fire.
quenty follows as TO cause the loss Of a
large proportion of the young plants. II
sown in the latter part of winter the seed
is ready 10 start with TIE first warm days,
and the plants will get well rooted before
the dry, hot weather of spring comes on.
yet We think the fall i, greatly to be pre-
ferred, because the fall rains will give the
plants such start as to afford good crop
