Sowing Grass Seed Alone.

Farmers rs class cannot be made to
believe that grass seed will succeed just
as we'll, and often great deal better, if
sown alone than with grain, in the usual
way. IF the. land is rich, and the follow
ing season is favorable to the growth of
grass then good stand may usually be
obtained by sowing with grain; but if
droughts should occur, the young delicate
grass is likely to be smothered or perish
for want of water. The grain among
which it is growing being SO much larger
aud more vigorous will appropriate to
itself the bulk of the moisture and fertili-
ty of the SOIL
Thesevcre drought which has prevailed
in the Atlantic States the present season
will make reseeding of many thousands
of acres necessary, and we suggest to
those who have never given the sowing of
grass seed alone trial to do 80 this Fall,
and see if better stand of grass cannot
be obtained in that way than by the old
doubing-up system. When grass and
grain are sown together both must neccs-
sarily suffer more or less from crowding,
if not from lack of moisture, and as the
grass is the weaker, tits injured most, the
result being feeble growth not worth
gathering for hay, and of little value for
pasture until the second year. But ifthe
grass seed alone is sown in early Autumn,
or about the time of sowing Winter grain,
it will generally grow sufficiently rank to
yield fair crop Of hay the following sea-
son, and will not be half so liable to be
destroyed by droughts.
This system of sowing grass seed alone
may not answer equally we'll in all local.
tiles and soils, but it is being practised
by our best farmers, some of whom have
expressed to lis surprise at their own
stupidity at so long practising the old
system. We have tested both systems
time and again, and invariably the grass
seed sown alone was far the best; hence
the above suggestions to those who may
have failed to get n good stand in their
fields the present season. There is, how.
ever, this disadvantage in sowing grass
seed alone, that one plowing and harrow
ing does not answer fer two crops as when
it is put in with grain.-Erchange.

RUSTIC FLOWER PoTs.-Last season l
had pretty arrangement Of my front
yard which was much admired, as things
of beauty. When the winters wood was
hauled to the house, there were some hol.
low logs amongst it. These were sawed
off about eighteen inches long; the de.
cayed wood from the inside was scraped
out then filled with rich earth and ma
nure; in the centre had a rosebush, and
next moss pinks; on the outer edge I sat
slips of ivy, and wandering Jew; in one
I raised some sweet peas. The plants all
grew nicely, and they were certainly
beautiful ornaments; source Of pleasure
to myself and admiration to passers-by.
These little arrangements are but trifling,
but anything that makes home pleasant
and enjoyable is worth seeing about a.
trying for, and triAes add much either
happiness, or discomft, all through life.
Rural Home.

The Home Of the Mother.

Home, thrice blessed word! Heaven
born and beautiful it comes, the gentle
sound upon the weary. over-tasked heart
breathing of rest, of peace and love.
There is magic in it. It brings secret
memories of the olden time; awakens re-
collections of the dim long ago; and
across the stormy soul there sweeps a
flood of golden light, quelling all sterncr
passions. How dear and cherished are
its remcmbrances, how hallowed is the
spot! The place where reason, when
permitted to enjoy the sweet retreat
alone, may wrap itself in the mantle of
undisturbed rehection-where love may
nestle and be delighted-whence the
baneful passions of our nature may be
utterly banished. 1t is paradise now !;
and such paradise as the poor pilgrim
on earth can never realize again. Its
influence is boundless; it hal.ows the
past, it controls the presentand future des-
TIMES of mankind, and brings humanity
nearer to Him who rules the home above.
Like tired wanderer, the spirit revels
in the treasured bliss of day which can
come no more, and ia young again in the
dreamland of happiness and youth. 1t
was there the mother smiled, and shed
the consecrated tear; there she pressed
the wanderer to her bosom before the
dream of ambition had fitted across his
giddy brain; there her love had utter
ance. What sacred shrine OH earth is
fond mothers love! How pure, how
changeless, how deathless! Love as
pure as heavens own sunlight, change
less rs the laws of the universe, deathless
as Immortality itself. 1t de6es the de-
caying touch of time, outlives life, and
claims kindred with the skies. The last
star sees her watcher by the couch of
her sick child, for earth has no emblem
of devotedness like hers. Where has
been the foundation upon which intellect
has reared the monuments of her great
ness, if not in the home circle? And by
whom has it been so laid if not by the
mother3 The mother is, for a time, the
sun and centre of that little group Of
young immortals among whom she
moves; and, as she has their affections
and confidence, she is making daily I'M
pressions upon their moral character
which will be felt in the community
where they live, and revealed in future
world. She alone is the constant atten-
dant upon the rising plants of her en-
deared family circle. 1t is hers to open
to them the pathway to a blessed immor-
tality, to fill up time with social comforts,
and to crown the whole with imperisha-
BILE happiness.-,Saturday Evening Post.

TUE LEETEN SEASON. To-day is known in
the Catholic.C Church calendar az ShroVe
Tuesday 0he Tuesday after Quinquagesima
Sunday, so called from the ancient custom
among Roman Catholics Of confessing; their
sins on that day In order to receive The sacra-
ment and thereby qualify themselves for a
more religious observance of Lent, which
pentential season begins tomorrow. The
first day of Lent is knewn as AsL.Wednes-
day, and derives It's name from the custom
of sprinkling ashes upon the heads Of the
faithful, who on that day especially are en-
ioined by the Church to do penance. The
day will be religiously observed in all the
Catholic churches with appropriate ceremo-
nies. AT st. Peters cathedral low-msss

,Kna, were read from the pulpits OF all the

SUDDEN DEATH. Zach. L. Crawford,
ever since the war chief toll-gatherer at
Mayo's bridge, died of apoplexy yesterday
evening about 6 O'Clock. He went OF duty
about II O'Clock yesterday morning, and
took bis gun and walked to the upper end Of
the island. About IL O'Clock he returned.
and complained that he felt dizzy. He re-
mained conscious only about an hour.
Though medical attention was quickly pro-
cured it was wholly unavailing. MIR. CraW-
ford went into the war as member of the
Grsys, and subsequently was made an officer
in another company. he was gallant sol'
dier and q good man. Thousands who
formed his acquaintance in passing Mayo's
bridge will miss his kindly greeting and
polite attention.
