Manu1.ial Crops.

Rye is an excellent manurial
crop for sandy grounds, and a cor
respondent of an agricultural CO.
temporary contends that it is pref
cradle to clover on poor soils, as it
will grow on soils too poorto pro-
duce clover. But it is too shallow
rooted and otherwise defective to
bear comparison with clover as a
manurial crop on lands that will
grow clover. The rye intended
for manure is usually sowed in Au-
gust, or about the LIST of Scptem-
Der; its grown crop not only fur
nishes fine autumnal pasturage
for all farm animals, but protects
the soil of our rolling lands almost
efectudlly from being washed
away by heavy rains and melting
SHOWS, and forms in its remains, a
pretty good manure the next sea-
son for a late sown crop. So rye
may be, and sometimes is, sown
for this purpose among the grow
ing corn, at the last working OF
the corn, to good advantage. Rye
is grown very advantageously as a
a green manurial crop in Germany
and in Northern Italy. Won Vout
of Germany considers it the best
of all green manures for sandy
soils. 1t is a better soil renovation
than oats, as the roots of the rye
are thicker and extend down deep
Ell into the soil than those of oats
do. But rye is the more expens.

grain or seeds.

This is trying time on colts.
This season is particularly severe
on them. There is little grass,
and they must be fed OF they will
starve, or become so poor that they
will die before summer. A little
oats in the sheaf and a little good
hay daily is necessary to keep them
in vigor and thriving. They should
not be fattened like hogs-but
have enough food and of the right
kind to make bone and muscle, and
keep up the health and strength
of the system. They should not
be kept in close, warm stables, but
should have plenty of fresh air.
They also need daily exercise, and
should be turned out several hours
each day in order to have a good
run. Plenty of food, plenty of
pure air, comfortable and we'll
ventilated stables, and plenty of
healthful exercise, will make good
colts, which, in proper time, will
become good serviceable horses.

9gitnltpral anN Domestic.
a Good IRofntiom.

The following rotation of crops,
adopted by Peter IIodson, of Ven
ice, Cayuga county, New York,
although similar to that in use by
some other farmers, is so good
for retaining or increasing the fer
tility of land, that we think it wor-
thy of being presented to the con-
Sideration of such of our readers as
may desire to make improvement
in this particular. The soil, on
which this rotation is used, is a
good medium loan, neither very
hight nor Of the heaviest OF strong
est character.
First ycar-Corn on sod.
Second ycar-Barley, followed
by clover, not cut nor pasturcd, but
allowed to rot down.
Third year-Clover plowed I'M
der when full grown, and after
pulverizing the top of the inverted
sod with a two-horse cultiyator,
sowing with wheat.
Fourth year-Wheat.
Fifth year-Clover and Timothy
meadow.
Sixth year-Pasture.
1t will be seen that only two TIL
lage crops are allowed in success
sion, the owner rcmarking that
three always makes the land slee-
py. A small crop OF oats is used
only for home use. A free use OF
litter for the stabbed cattle and
horses, mixing all the materials
uniformly together in heaps, ena-
bles him to manufacture about
four hundred two-horse loads of
manure per annum, for a farm of
about one hundred and sixty acres.
This he usually applies for the
benefit of the corn crop the year
before it is planted, spreading it
broadcast upon the grass about
midsummer or earlier. He finds
no detriment from any supposed
evaporation of the manure during
the heat of summer the grass
also grows with more vigor, and
the soluble part of the manure be-
comes gradually difused among
the roots and through the soil.
He has found the best result when
the manure was spread as early as
the month of June. BY this time
the winter accumulations have rot
ted enough and the long fibre is
broken.

NInlsiny Cool Butter.

There is no process of working
or washing that will secure a good
article Of butter, or that will gctall
the buttermilk out, till it has stood
a short time, when it must be
worked over the second time, after
which it will keep d long time.
Butter that has not been worked
over the second time will not keep
more than two or three days in
warm weather, | don't care how
much pains you take with it, the
buttermilk that is left in the butter
becoming sour, makes your butter
rancid. | have bought and sold
butter in Ohio and know what |
am talking about; and here is
where the trouble begins-you are
bound to sell all the buttermilk
you can, and so long as dealers pay
as much for buttermilk as for a
nice article of butter, we cannot
expect you to do much better. |
am satisfied that there can be Just
as good butter made in Indiana as
is made in the cheese and butter
regions of the Eastern States. But
just as long as we pursue the
suicidal policy of selling buttermilk
with the butter, so long will our
butter be quoted in Eastern mar
kets as Western grease.
