A WORD ABOUT PASTURES.

Messrs Editors :-Tt is well, think, that
the improvement Of our pasture lands is at
tracting the attention of our farmers. II has
been neglected quite long enough. They
certainly stand in great need Improvement,
and offer one of the fairest chances of max
| ing it. that our farms anywhere present.
Large portions of them are almost wholly
lunproductiye Of any profit or benefit what
ever. observe you suggest, as one means
Of benefting these lands,-"t to feed less"
should rather think this would be injurious to
them, rather than beneficial in the state in
which they very generally are, because it
would allow weeds, fern, briars, brush, &c.,
to trench on. choke and crowd cut the grasses
still more than they now do. These lands
are suffering, apprehend, less from impov-
erishment caused by close feeding, than by
inaction. the desolating effects Of our winter
winds, and the increase of various useless
and hurtful plants.
In the FIRST place, / would divide them
where they exceed eight or ten acres in a lot,
as preliminary step toward their improve
ment. 1t will have more effect than | pre-
sumo you are willing to allow. Division is
certainly principle in agriculture, and even
linear division, If not carried too far. may be
decidedly beneficial. have no doubt it may
be SO in this case.
Secondly, | would plow such Of them as
will admit Of il, manure some, take crop or
two. and then lay down to grass.
Thirdly, would cut, subdue, and effectu-
ally root out all brush, brake, briars, &c.,
&c., from such of them as would mot admit
ofthe pillow. and top-dress with plaster. ashes,
&c.
Fourthly. would Craze rather closely, for
one, two. or more years, changing pasture
often, and thus make the stock auxiliary in
the work oferadicating intruders, AND spread
ing the finer and more nutritiye grasses.
