Grass as Il lseuOyaIOr.

Many farmers labor for years ignorant
of the fact that a close, well-set sod is
the foundation Of good farming and the
basis of good crops. Soil that will pro-
duce an immediate and firm set of grass
Will bring a good crop of any kind.
There IS no better way to test the pro-
ducing capacity of soil than by its grass
production If field yields scant
grass crop, and is uneven or full of bar
ren spots, it will not be safe to depend
ON such soil for any other crop without
extra manul1ng, and even then the crop
Is not Of so great certainty as if the
ground was covered with firm sod at
ploughing time. There is something in
a heavy sod that will perfect crop even
in an unfayorable season. ! never have
failed of a good crop on such land Soil
will soon be renovated after partial de-
teroration, if grass can be densely set
on the surface; and this mode of renova-
ton, [ claim, is the quickest, surest and
cheapest of any. There never was a
mistake made so full of loss to the farm
ers as to allow naturally good soil to de-
teriorate at all, and when the farmers
understand and act on this principal our
productions viii never fall below an
average, or even to this point

washing sheep.

Until recently every farmer washed
lii sheep more or less clean before
kbearing, but of late there appears to be
h disposition on the part of buyerstopay
little more for washed than for unwashed
wool. and this has set the farmers against
any attempt at washing their sheep. If
the farmer cannot obtain an advance in
price sufficient to pay for the trouble of
washing them, let him dispense with the
operation altogether. 1t is disagreeable
work at best. There is danger of not
only the sheep but the washer taking
cold. and, if there is nothing to be
gained in price, it is time the curtain
was dropped. Still, there must remain
room for a great amount of hagglng be-
tween buyer and seller in regard to dis
counts for dirt in the wool. In some
localities the wool of unwashed sheep
will contain far more dirt in weight than
pure WOOL Y. Sun.
