THE Boston Cultiralor states that the
re'seedeng of grass land by blowing it
just after a crop OF hay has been taken
off, and sowing the seed on the inverted
sward. has been pactsed for several
years in the vicinity Of Boston with grea;
satisfaction. BY this mode land can be
kept permanently in grass. The first
crop after seeding is little later, but a
fair yield will be realized. The land
should be heavilyrolIed after it is plow-
ed so as to firmly compress the furrows
and prevent the old grass from starting
through the interstices. Afterward the
top should be loosened with light har.
row.
Top dressing Of swori BY manure
wllsOmeimes make practicable to keep
land continuously in grass. Farmers
differ as to the time when the manure
should be applied. The great essential
is to apply il at a time when there is
prospect of a season of moist weather, so
as TO sucuro the absorption by the
ground of the juices Of the manure and
to prevent their evaporation.
