Bermuda Grass.

We find the following directions for
getting rid of Bermuda Grass in the
StarkviIle Stock journal:
Take two mules or horses, harness
them to first rate turning pillow and
turn the grass completely under about
September. After blowing, pulverize
with a good harrow. Then sow with
rust proof oats During the winter
nearly all the roots of the Bermuda
grass will rot Harvest the oats the fol-
lowing June and then cross plough and
sow on the furrow one and a halt to two
pounds of COW peas to the acre and cross
harrow them in. In October turn I'M
der the COW peas with q two horse turn
ing pillow with chain attached, one end
to the end of the double tree the other
to the beam Of the pillow with sufficient
slack chain to draw all the peas and
weeds under. If the pea vines clog, use
n cutting roller with a sharp edge: and
YOU will find good oat and wheat crop,
and no need of commercial manures.
Some spread twenty bushels of cotton
seed broadcast among the pea vines pre-
gious to blowing. l have had personal
experience in subduing Bermuda grass,
and know whereof | speak. 1t costs
much less than filling gullics or reclaim
ing CALLED land.

The world is filled with the the wine Of

But pleasure, she says, must wait for du

If they saw her sitting with idle hand,

They do not know that the heart within her

They only know that they want their din

And after the sweeping and churning and

She sits and 5ews, though her head is ach-

Her bows at school must look like others,

GreasinS Wagons.

A good wagon costs a considerable sum,
and should be properly cared for, and
made to last as long as possible. Few
persons understand the Importance of
thoroughly lubricating the aXles, etc, OF
wagons and carriages, and still fewer
know which are the most suitable lubri-
Gators to use, and the proper way Of APP
plying them. \ well-made wheel viii
endure ordinary wear from ten to twenty
five years, if care is taken to use the
right amount of the popular lubricator,
but if this matter is not attended to, a
wheel will be used up in five or six years.
Lard should never be used on a wagon,
for it Will penetrate the hub and work
itself all round the lemons Of the spokes,
and spoil the wheel. TalIow is the best
lubricators for wooden axletrces, and
castor oil for iron. When oiling an axle
tree, the spindle should be wiped clean,
with a cloth wet with spirits of turpen-
tine, and then apply few drops of cas-
tor oil near the shoulder and end. When
greasing an axletree, just enough grease
should be applied to give light coating;
more does more harm than good, by
working out and damaging the hub

indeed Is possible, to our mining and

No section Of the United States offers
such attractions to the stock raiser and

more abountly supplied with unfailing
springs and living streams Of pure spark

There are no flies or mosquitoes to mo
lest, and the native grasses furnish the
richest pasturage-Small grains, vege-
tables, and corn do finely; and no section
OF the United States excel it in apples,
peaches, pears. and all the smaller cult

The experience Of the present season
shows that, where any kind Of fruit is
raised in very large quantities, and
widely advertised ever the North, buy
ers by the hundreds, will be at the de-
pots and shipping points, ready to con-
tract for the entire crop, be it ever SO

Plants set against walls and piazzas
frequently suffer for want Of water at this
season, when other ground around them
is quite wet. Draw away the soil around
each plant SO as to form a basin fill it
with bucketful of water, allowing it to
soak gradually away, and when the sur
face has dried a little, draw in loosely the
soil over it, and it will do without water
for some weeks. This applies toall plants
wanting water through the season. If
water is merely poured on the surface, it
is made more compact by the weight of
water, and the harder the soil becomes
the easier it dries, and the result is, the
more water you give the more is wanted.

Onion CoI1ure.

A writer in the Southern Cultivator
gives the following valuable instructions
! on this subject, which we copy for the
benefit of our readers, onions being a
crop which pays largely in this State:
In September | procure fresh seed of
the Italian varieties, Giant Rocca, New
Queen, and Mammoth Tripoli, and about
the 10Th commence to SOW in a rich, well
prepared cold frame, Cor a warm expo
sure along the fence Will answer for such
early sowing, continuing to SOW some at
intervals until November ID.
The seed is sown thickly in to 5-inch
drills, the object being to secure plants
to set out in October, and then Oh to Jan
uary. BY regular watering and work
ing, and the use Of the glass If weather Is
| G ld, plants can be made ready in few
weeks. BY the time the plants are ready
fand this will be as soon as they have
three leaves and four or five roots }
| though it Is better to let them get a lit
| tie larger, the land Is prepared to
receive them. In garden culture, the
rows are made ) inches apart, and the
/ plants set inches apart in the row.
The plants being taken out Of seed
| bed, are grOuted (as described III w hlte
for sweet potatoes) and planted out with
| dibble, the bulb being set just under
| the surface. In field culture, the rows
should be two feet apart.
OF course any variety can be used,
but | prefer the Italians from the fact
| that they are milder and grow to Il
much larger size under like circumstan-
ces.
| Sets Of these varieties are not procura-
| bic in market, and besides sets are too
expensive any way. Since | hit upon
| this plan, l have discontinued growing
my own sets from early spring sowlngs,
as so many decayed during July ard
August. seed being paratively
cheap, this is the least expensive plan by
which onions may be grown. For very
early onions to be pulled green in March
and April, | put out buttons in Au-
gust and September, but for main crop,
! to mature for summer and fall use | shall
/ follow the plan described-untiI better
is discovered. The plan does not involve
greater labor for it Is more economical to
set out a we'll started plant in clean fresh
soil than to thin and clean out when
! sOwn where they are to stand. The
plants can be put out as rapidly as the
SETS and few if any will fail if the earth
is pressed firmly to the roots. Fine
onions will result in May and June if the
soil is kept clean and has been made suf-
iciently rich. | pursue this also with
early spring beets, using the Yellow
Globe for the earliest as they bear trans
planting better (having more rootlets at
this early stage) than the ordinary red
beet. | get the plants large enough to
set out by first of December and then in
through January.
