Winter-Sown Rye.

Two years ago, says the HuSbandrnen,
as we could not procure the desired
quantity of Spring rye seed, about half
an acre was sowed with winter rye at
the same time when the Spring rye was
put in. AS there were serious doubts
that Winter rye would grow to the
usual height and head out if the seed
were not exposed to the Influences of
freezing and thawing, inquiry was made
of several professional agriculturists of
worldwide reputation, who assured us
that if the seed of Winter rye were
sOwed early in the vernal seed time
there would be large growth of straw
destitute of grain. AS we wanted a
crop of green feed and not grain, some
Winter rye was sowed by the side of
the plot that had been appropriated to
Spring rye. The Winter rye germina-
ted and the tops grew luxuriantly until
the leaves formed thick green mat
over the surface of the ground, and
there the growth ceased. There was
not one stem of Winter rye in all the
plat that grew larger than rye or wheat
usually grows in autumn. The Spring
rye attained its usual height early in
June and the crop was cut down for
early green feed for domestic animals.
We have in mind q farmer who, more
than forty years ago, cleared plat of
woodland late in autumn and in De-
cember sowed the ground with Winter
rye, just before Christmas. The next
day after the seed was put in the ground
froze up tight. The seed was simply
narrowed in, the ground being so rooty
and stumpy that it could not be plowed.
During the Winter snow fell on the
ground to an unusual depth and the
surface was covered with snow until
the succeeding April. The crop, both
of straw and grain, was as heavy as
rye usually grows in that region of
country, when the seed was sowed in
early autumn. About thirty years ago
we plowed five acres of corn stubble
! few days before there were indications
that the ground was about to freeze up
| for the winter and drilled in seed rye at
the rate of about one and half bush
els per acre. The next day after the
seed was put in the ground did freeze
up solid and did not thaw out until
some time in February. The rye did
not germinate until nearly the middle
of April. The crop of both straw and
! grain was as large as we ever raised
when the seed was sowed at the usual
period in autumn. In many sections of
country the Winter is so mild that GER
tain fields may be plowed and harrow
ed. In case farmer has neglected to
SOW the desired area of ground with
rye last autumn, plowing and seed
ing could be performed in February, or
even in March, unless one should feel
confident that there would be more
freezing weather.

out of the question. If horse balks
nowhere else but in going up hill, in
nine cases out of ten the cause is to be
found in a faulty collar or i'll fitting
harness, or the load is too heavy for
him. If Charlie balks from mere
cussedness, it matters not how much
he is urged, or how emphatic you speak
to him, for he will only look around
and smile at you. Such fellow is not
only useless, but he is positively
dangerous, where hills are such as To
render it necessary to ascend them in a
walk; for he is not only satisfied with
stopping, but will run back, and is then
as likely to land his load in a ditch ol
send it over precipice as to leave il
on the road. The only security against
this taking place is, if there is room, to
at once turn him sideways to the hill
across the road, instead of urging hin
forward. Generally speaking, after
standing thus few minutes, he will e
on; at all events it stops him running
back. Where hills are moderate. tina
is, such as can be trotted up, horse
must be a very rank baker if he stops
unless the hill is very long and weari
