Orchard Grass.

At a late meeting of the New York Farm
ers' Club, Long Island farmer was pres
ent with sample of orchard grass three feet
high, showing what good cultivation will do
for it. He said that this valuable though
neglected grass, is indigenous to the soil of
America, and from its adaptability to various
soils, its eally and late growth, luxuriant fol-
iage and nutritive qualities. it is well entitled
to an equality with any grass, either native
or foreign, which is being cultivated in this
country. Many of our best farmers who feed
all their hay, value mixture of orchard
grass and red clover more than any other
grasses. 1t makes highly nutritious hay,
and is much relished by stock of all kinds.
Clover hay-that is, hay where clover pre-
dominates, grows too rank and course the
first year after wheat, unless for soiing. Red
clover is biennial plant, and every farmer
experiences that it is only after the second
years wheat that it makes the article so sal
able in market under the name of timothy
hay. Orchard grass, when sown with clover.
obviates this difficulty, grows as rapidly as
clover, starts in the spring as early, and by
this similarity of habit makes a suitable grass
to mix with it. For pasturage it stands a
drought better then any other, will bear
heavier stocking and comes forward in the
spring very early. Orchard grass quickly re-
covers and grows after being closely cropped:
week or ten days of summer growth will
make good pasturage. 1t also, by its great
amount OF tibrous roots. tends to improve in
stead of impoverishing the soil. 1t is not at
all fiji for a lawn, as it sometimes grows in
punches of cussocks, especially when sown
thin. The proper quantity when sown alone
is but two bushels to the acre; when sown
with clover one bushel is sufficient. Per-
haps there are no two grasses that can be
sown together with so great advantage as
red clover and orchard grass. By their union
the crop is nearly double what it would be if
each were sown separately; they grow and
flower well together. come to maturity about
the same time, and the clover is supported
from falling by the common strength of the
orchard grass.

IN. ..roiorous postion of the great railway cor
-..;os with that of the fast-dlssoving large coal
so-.oo,ies is apparent to every careful observer
IT,. 4 i aprreciated by disintereSted public Is
ade patent by the utter failures of speculators in
the;r attempts to create market for stocks by the
old approved method of marking up prices 1t is
rceived that the same immense capacity for carry
;s in the eue case is the equivalent for capacity
e. ,-oduction in the other. Neither can be profit
.bIT employed and therefore the surplus is dead
weight upon the corporation possessing it, in that
ts costs for rentas royalties, and interest is the
.,,ue Is if il was productive Again with the rail
ways as with the coal companies, this surplus
canacity is not capitalized at even the high
eost of flush times, but contains 3" water" to
the extent of over 20 per cent on that eX-
orbitant cost Hence the tax Of idleness Is
. still greater burden to be borne 10y that portion
which is employed. Again it is observed that the
,alwav officials are engaged IN the same sort of
"6dde-faddle" work of attempting to remedy mat
ters by meetings. resolutions and agreements with
which the coal companies so long have amused the
uublic and deceived their trusting stockholders
The latest dodge is the allotment of West-bonnd
frsicbt from New-York (alone, giving to each COM
many certain fixed percentage of the total. while
from Philadelphia and Baltimore the old diScrm-
mating rates below thOso established from New
York remain To divert traffic away from the city.
And II Is stated that the receiver of the Ene Rail
rood-who also is an officer of the cOurt-has
signed this compact which Is directly in viola
tiou of the New-YOrk statutes relative TO con-
spiracy. Ali OF this sort of thing may prove
profitable TO speculative managers and their par
trnar friends but that IT is of no avail as further
ing the prosperity of the companies Is too apparent
to require exposition. First it is required that CAPT
tai be reduced 10 q point commensurate with tie
new order Of things and shen, 90 sustain the reor
eanized capital, q business which viii prohtaoy en-
ploy the capacities. That business does not no"
