TOP-DRESSING GRASS LANDS.

As good time as any for top dressing grass
lahds, is soon after removing the grass, or early
autumn. The ground then takes up the ma
nure; in the spring 1t is apt to evaporate, and
waste its effects largely in the air. In the fall
the dews and rains dissolve the manure, car
rying the elements into the soil to be appro-
priated by the rootlets aud 1bers of the grass,
thus at once furnishing pabulum assimila-
BILE for the starting of new and vigorous
growth
Summer is the time to pr epare a compost
tor top dressing; everything on the farm con.
vertible, should be appropriated to the com.
post heap. Muck, sods from headlands, under
fences, etc, mixed with the yard manure, il
heaped loosely in warm weather soon decom-
pose, and the whole heap becomes leavened.
Where animal manure is wanting, muck and
| sods with sprinkl ing of lime throughout
the heap, and the addition of a little salt, ashes
etc, will make a good substitute; the rains
| will furnish moisture, go that in short time
the heap will become decidedly warm, when
it should be overhauled mixing it quite
thoroughly and Rning 1t TO the greatest pos.
sible extent. Usually where the compost ia
muck, sods and the other ingredients, one
overhauling will sufficiently fine itin few
weeks time to apply it on grass; il coarser ar
ticles are used, another overhauling, or more
and longer time may be necessary to fit 1t fol
use.
neaFy crops Vi grass taken from new seeu-
ed ground for a few years draw largely on it
fertility, and it no recompense is made il
the shape of top-dressing, the quality, as wei
as quantity, fails in good measure. This i
the reason why our meadowa so often appes
exhausted and need re-seeding, The gras
, roots not having assimilative food are enfeebl
, ed and finally driven to yield their place t
,, less valuable or more hardy vaIiet les, weed
, etc. When this takes place the only resourC
4 is blowing and re-seedingi top dressing woul
n only give the weeds, ETC., greater luxurianC
q and abundance. The grass roots should hay
!, had the sustaining influence of stimulant fro
a the frat seeding, where, instead of yielding
a inferior vegetation, they would have increase
q in vigor annually, although a crop were ann
a ally taken therefrom.-[So. Windso Con

Cows FOR MILK AND BuTTER.-That the milk
ing qualities of cows are hereditary no one will
deny. They come from both sire and dam and
it il claimed, not without some foundation,
tba heifers take after their aires dam in regard
10 milking qualities oftener than after their
own dams. This may be true in some cases
but not in all, and especially not in crossing
bulls of pure breeds on common milking stock.
We ottsa have letters like this;
"Will you have the kindness to give me
some information about COWS for milk and
butter purposes. | want to breed especially
| for milk and butter for family use, and want
nice cows. with good supply of good rich
milk and butter. want 10 establish a herd
| of this sort for home use, and to supply the
country demand. What breed shall selec,
iromf"-Buy the best common cows you can
which are good rich mixers. Use upon them
a pure blood4d bull. II you use an Aderney
bull you are very sure of rich milk, but small
size in the progeny lfyou use a Dutch bull
you will get large frame aud probably much
milk OF medium quality. The Ayrshire cow
will give a medium quantity OF milk OF fail
richness, while the Short-horn cross will b.
likely to produce stock giving good quautit.
OF milk, the quality variable.
The tendency to give much milk is increase
in heifrs by letting them have calves yer
young, milking three times a day and Rivin

AsHEs on ORcHARDs.-There is nothing bet
ter, as general rule, for old orchards than a
liberal dressing of unleached wood ashes. 1t
would be hard to tell how much it would not
pay to apply barrel or two to each tree
spread as far as the outmost boughs, plowing
to inches deep, will probably rejuvenate
the orchard provided there is any soundness lief,
in the trees. Lime is nearly as good, 1t should
be spread freshly slaked, after blowing, and
he narrowed in or light dressing say 4 oil
the whole, may be first spread snd plowed in
and the rest put on the surface after blowing
and then narrowed in. Calculate TO put aboui
) bushels TO each tree in the orchard though
more would do no harm; make the application
in the autumn.-[ Agriculturist
