Sowing GraSS Seed,

Select autumn, when practicable, an
the most favorable time to SOW seed, is
conjunction with winter gram. Select
as the next best season the spring
months, inst as soon as the soil is suf-
ficiently dry. and not before; a rule
which, by the way, holds good for seed
or grain in general.
We do not propose, In this article, to
enter into description Of the varied
grasses which now and then suddenly
spring up as mushrooms in the adverti-
sing columns of some agricultural peri
odicals, soon to be superseded by some
other specimen of grass :.sfar superior
to any yet offered to the public" Tim
othy and clover yet remain as our stand
ard grasses, and probably will for GEN.
fury or more to come. True, some of
the special grasses may be better adap-
ted for certain localities than these;
thus, for example, as orchard grass is
better adapted to the shade than any
other. therefore, in shaded ground, as
in sugar orchard, or in grove, this
particular grass may be most success
fully grown. 1t should not, however,
be grown in fruit orchard of any kind.
Also, as this grass is of rapid growth, it
may, to some extent, be successfully
employed in pasture lands.
II the object be to enrich the soil,
SOW the large clover; but if for fodder,
SOW the medium. The former is best
calculated for blowing under, and as
the roots are of large growth, penetra-
ting deep into the soil, it proves a most
excellent fertilizer. AS fodder, how
ever, 1t proves of about as much value,
bulk for bulk, as so many feet of fine
brush piled compactly together, and
will last about the same length of time.
As a general rule, SOW two parts of tim.
othy to one of clover. If, however, the
soil is wet or subject to unusual upheav-
ing by the winters frost, SOW a less
proportion, or perhaps, better still, none
at all. After the third or fourth year
from seeding, the clover will nearly or
quite disappear, leaving the soil in a
most excellent condition. The seed be-
ing sown (the large stones, at least, be-
ing previously removed,) cover with
short-toothed harrow, or still better,
the common brush, formed when conve-
nient, from the branches of thorn tree,
rs this will not only cover the seed the
proper depth, but will materially aid in
pulverising the soil. Top-dress with
plaster, or ashes, or some of the com-
mercial manures, if the soil be dry, and
the extra grass or grain will repay at
least fourfold. Seed rich and well cul-
tivated soil only, and not as is too often
the case, because the soil is completely
exhausted or ''run ont" or when San
other crop would not pay for plough>
ing" vainly expecting crop of grass
will grow where nothing else will

What We Know AbOut Beans.

We have had some experience in
raising beans, and much observation.
We are planting nearly twenty
acles the present season. For two
years past, taking one year with an
other, they have been one of the most
profitable crops raised on the farm.
They occupy the land only eight or ten
weeks, and are harvested in time to
SOW winter wheat. No special skill or
peculiar treatment is necessary in
raising them, but some care and eX-
perience are required t. harvest them.
The real point is to have the land clean,
mellow, and in good heart. The old
saying, =" too poor to raise BEANS" has
led many astray. They have planted
beans. only on such land as was not
considered rich enough, or clean
enough, or dry enough to raise corn
or small grain crops. And the result
in nine cases out of ten is just what
any one might exrect-abundanee of
weeds, light yield, and all inferior or
widowed crop of beans, fit only to be
fed to sheep. in fact, we have seen
beans so widowed, that any sensible
farmer would be afraid to feed them to
his animals without steaming them.
A crop of beans of thirty bushels to
the acre that has to grow and mature
in SO short time must have liberal
supply of available food, and the soil
must be in the best condition. We
are aware that fair crop of beans
is sometimes raised on soil so
hard that it would seem that the roo S
could not penetrate it. But a maxi
mum yield cannot be expected unless
all the conditions of growth are favor.
able. The most common mistake is in
trying to raise beans and weeds oil the
same land at the same time. We have
seen part of field of beans cultivated
and hoed, and another part, on equally
good land, left uncultivated, ami the
latter produced less than One-third of
the former. The extra cost of pulling
the beans out of the weeds was more
than it would have cost to cultivate
and hoe them. The beans on the
weedy land did not mature properly,
and could not be sold at any pIice. The
most profitable crop of beans we ever
raised was on a twO-year old clover
sod, Plowed in June, turning under
clover, equal, perhaps, to more than
half ton OF hay an acre. The beans
were drilled in Immediately after the
land was plowed and narrowed. There
was a rain shortly afterward. and the
beans came up and grew rapidly. They
were cultivated four or five times, and
needed scarcely any hoeing. The yield
was over twenty bushels an acre, and
the beans brought s. 35 Der bushel.
The land, after the beans were cut
off, was plowed and sown TO winter
wheat, and produced a good crop. This
was merely lucky hit.-AgTicutturist.

1t is of great importance that the system
should be in vigorous condition when the
hot weather commences. The effects OF
high temperature upon an enfeebled frame
are always more or less disastrous. The loss
OF substance and the decleusion OF nervous
mower, occasioned by excessive heat, can
only be compensated by the active, health
full and regular exercise Of all the bodily
functions by which the waste Of nature Is
replenished and the vital energies renewed.

IL there were nothing else in the new
Constitution to commend it to popular

throws around the enjoyment OF pop
ular rights should induce every lover OF
personal liberty to give it his earnest
good will. Should the new Constitution
be adopted, no test oath can be here
after exacted a. q condition precedent
to the enjoymen. Of ally civil or polltl-
cal privilege. The abuses under which
the people Of West Virginia lsbored for
eight years have shown them how dan
gerous is the silence of the present
Constitution in these important respects.
Probably one-half of the Radicals Of
the present day now declare that they
did not approve of these things and
would not countenance their repetition.
TO prove their sincerity, let them now
vote for the new Constitu ton which
places it out of the power Of any party
to commit such wrongs and thus makes
assurance doubly sure.

OUR Republican friends seem to be
deeply enamored just now with the
beauties Of "the 'possum policy Their
State and county organizations are laid
aside as sacred relics Of the past, while
the politicians pretend that they have
no interest in the campaign and DO not
propose to participate actively in it
But the Democrats must be upon their
guard. The whole object and design OF
the Radical leaders is to induce some
relaxation Of Democratic vigilance and
Democratic discipline when they will
seize the opportunity to defeat the will
Of the majority and put their own par
tissns in office. In this design they 'are
probably abetted and encouraged BY q
few professed Democrats who secretly
announce their willingness to enter into
a combination to overthrow Democratic
supremacy in this county and hand the
county over to Radical domination.
The Democratic party in the State
and in Ohio county hasa good ticket,
fairly nominated in accordance with
long established usage. 1t is the duty
ofevery Democrat to support the ticket
manfully and earnestly and to treat a
political foe the man who attempts to
break down the party organization or
divide its strength. The interests OF
every individual member Of the party
are involved in the maintainance Of it's
discipline and the unity Of its action.
Success can only be had by standing
together and concentrating our efforts.
The Radical party here is simply
"possamings'snd hopes to gain some.
thing BY pretending to be dead. Let no
Democrat BE fooled by any such
maneuvre. gf~sr- .
