Peared to grow taller and mature some
fifteen days earlier than the balance. This
attracted the attention Of the owner who
cut The stalks and planted the product the
next fall by itself; and the result was
fne crop maturing some two weeks earlier
than any other wheat in the vicinity. The
heads are smooth, with lighter colored
grains than the ordinary white wheat, very
hardy and prolific, and as yet has never
been affected with diseases incident to the
wheat plant. It should be sown early in
the fall-here from the 18th of September
to the lst of October. The diseoVerer
gave it the name Of 'Tamppahanook, and
afterwards, when taken to Delaware, it
got the name Of 'Boughton.' am, res
pectfully, J. w. Stokes,

A wheat thus highly recommended is
worth trial. fit should grow as well in
Tennessee as Virginia. it will prove a most
valuable variety. A large number of farm
ers in Middle Tennessee have determined
to SOW a considerable quantity of the
"Boughton'' wheat, and thus give it a
full and fair test Union and Dispatch.

Sowing Grass Seed in The FAN.

"a Young Farmer" asks q" Can grass
seed be sown in the fall % To which Col
mans Rural World replies off land is
put in good condition, we have no doubt it
is better time to SOW grass seed in the
fall than in the spring, Fall is the season
when nature sows most Of her seeds, and
thoy vegetate freely as we all know. We
have known of some instances where timo-
thy and herds grass have been sown in
the fall with the best of success, and have
never heard Of a failure. We presume
clover seed is as we'll or better adapted to
fall seeding than the grass, as it is encased
in very hard covering. We have known
clover seed to keep in the ground ten
years. A crop of clover when ripe was
turned under deeply in the fall, and the
field was soWn to wheat aud seeded to tim
othy. Ten years after a deep blowing was
given to the field, the clover seed was
brought to the surface. and the ground was
covered with young plants"

CloHer-Rotation Of Cropg.

A correspondent of the Country Gentle
man holds that wheat will sooner run out
as a continuous crop than cloVer-that is,
the principles necessary to produce wheat
are sooner exhausted than those necessary
for clover. He bases this upon the expe-
rience of the Genessee valley, celebrated
for wheat as well as clover. The soil here
is rich, producing abundantly other crops,
after the wheat and clover have failed
This shows the necessity of q rotation of
crops. It is but the common experience of
the world constantly repeated.
The writer further says: cit is not With
out value Of proof, that on all grain soils,
aud especially those suited to winter wheat
clover, if judicOusly used in connection
with barn yard manure, and good rOta-
ton, will make and keep land rich and
productive. 1t is also valuable as another
proof Of the advantages of frequent seed
ing to clover. And one object in writing
at this time, is again to urge farmers to
seed to clover with all sown grain, and es-
pecially with wheat and rye, as experience
and observation each year confirm the
opinion that in no other way can the came
improvement Of the soil be SO easily or
cheaply secured"
This is reasonable talk and is from a
| careful and practical farmer and esteemed
correspondent 1t shows that care is re-
quisite in the distribu ton of grains and
the management Of the soil. Farming at
random, it has long since been found out,
will not do. Nature will not change to
suit our caprice of our carelessness. We
must conform to her requirements.
1t will be seen from the foregoing, and
indeed from common experience, that clio
yer is one Of the important clements in the
rotation Of crops, and the amelioration of
soils. 1t is an agent that the farmer can
not well DO ithout, whether as an aid to
other crops, or as a special crop, in which
case it is superior to most crops, both as
pasture and an early harvested hay.
Glover is not only profitable on all soils,
but especially on our WORKOUT or feeble
soils, and indispensable on land inaccessible
to barnyard manure, such as hills and dis
tant lots. These are readily benefited by
clover and by other crops, as a rotation in
crops to be plowed under, is as necessary
as in raising grain. Peas will alternate
with clover buckwheat has been used to
advantage, and corn decidedly. Clover
and corn are probably the best. Pea straw
lit is known, is very rich. All or each
may be made to avail Where clover has
not been used, that is probably the best

Orders have been given to prefer honors

The death of Sir Frederick Bruce. in
view of the present relations between
the United States and Great Britain, is
looked upon as a serious calamity. Il Is
not believed, under the existing temper

press, that he can be replaced.
Sir Frederick Bruce was a descend
ant of one of the most renowned royal
families of Scotland, two members of
which occupied the chrome, the first be-
ing Robert, Earl of Carrick, the hero
of Bannockburn, crowned king in 1906.

sorghum CROP for 1867.

II beginsao apper that the quantity OF
cane growing this year, particularly 10
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, is cOnsIdera-
bly less than was grown last year or the
yeas before. Various causes have com.
bined 70 produce this falling of. Last
year was ~unfavorable TO sorghum 10 sew
eral respects. Tie season was wet, and
the saccharine matter of the cane was
very imperfectly developed. The guam
thy was large, and the quantity poor,
which combined TO depress prices, and
operators were obliged to sell their sur
plus for less Than they expected to real
lie. Al the same time, wheat, corn and
other farm crops were commanding unu-
sually high prices, which, Of course,
made sorghum appear to a disadvantage,
Ia the next place, the seed Of last years
cane was imperfectly malured, and much
that was planted this spring failed to
come up. Again the spring was wet,
cold and backward, which deferred many
from planting. Some had conceived the
idea that Louisiana had became a recon
strucled Sale, and would this year fur
nish molasses at, perhaps, twenty I'VE
cents per gallon.
Il is now too late to correct mistakes ;
but there Is little doubt but that those
who neglected TO plant sorghum, because
they thought il would not pay as well as
corn and other spring planted crops,
have made a mistake. Corn and poIa.
toes will not be worth a dollar a bushel
this fall, and those who have sorghum 70
sell viii not be obliged TO hunt purchas-
ers at thirty or forty cents per gallon.
The market will not be glutled with
New Orleans molasses this year, nor for
several years 10 come, and tropical mo-
Iasses never will d~isplace sorghum IL
this country where The latter can be pr4-
duced with the lutte labor and trouble 1t
requires.
Those who have q n this year will
do we'll to attend TO it carefully. We do
not know what price il will command
but we predict lhaha gallon of good sor-
ghum will pay for a bushel of corn, and
thai two gallons will pay for a tushel OF
wheat,-Sargo Journal.
