Sowing Grain With Grass.

Sowing grain with grass seed, saws
an exchange, is a practice quite com.
monty condemned, vet il Is rather tho
rule than the exception. This custom
can hardly be defended as one to be
followed, yet 1t has some few advan-
tages, notable among which is the
smothering of weeds. On a piece Of
weedy land, and when green manure is
used before seeding down land IN
clines to weeds, to say nothing OF the
risk of sowing weed seeds in connec-
ton with grass seeds-it becomes n
question whether to grow a crop of
weeds or a crop of grain before the
grass is ready TO NOW, The seeds of
weeds start quicker than grass seeds,
and the weeds grow up overshadow-
ing the grass, so that the first cutting
will give more of the former and less OF
the latter than is desirable. In such a
case, the danger of letting in the SUMS
hot rays and of burning out the Young
grass Is just as great as though 4 crop
OF grain had been sown and harvested.
II, with the grass seed, a light sowing
OF barley is made, the latter will grow
up quicker than the weeds and over
shadow them, so that If the barley
be cut green and made into hay, OF
even fed green where soiling is prac-
ticed, q crop OF good fodder will be se-
cured in lieu of q crop OF weeds. In all
transactions upon the farm, circum-
stances must govern as well as the best
conceived rules,

old style. The artists bottles aud neg
atives have been shaken, his lamp blown

ing would induce him TO spend the night
there. Old residents revive the story of
n peddlar being murdered fifty years
