Care Of Pastures.

Too many farmers think pastures can
take care of themselves, and no matter
how greatly they are robbed and denuded,
the cattle feeding on the pastures can
take care of themselves also. We have
heretofore urged the Importance of al
lowing blue grass to grow several inches
high before stock is turned on it, and to
have no more stock than viii allow the
grass to continue that high, with 8
thick coating for the ground, keeping 1t
moist and the grass green. But all
kinds of pasture need care and feeding.
The grass crop on well regulated and
properly ordered farm is worth more
than the corn and wheat crop. And
yet all the care and expense are de-
voted to the cereals, leaving the grass
to take care of itself. This is unwise
husbandry and poor economy. There
is no crop which responds more cor
daily and pays more literally for good
treatment by the farmer than his past
ure and meadow lands.
If man keeps his moving land in
good condition, he will have an album
dance of hay in winter and spring, 50
that he will not be compelled to turn
his poor cattle on his pastures before
there Is bite for them. They tramp
the soil into mortar and gnaw the very
roots of the grass from the soil. In this
condition the ground is bare, soon bakes
in the sun. and there is a scanty crop
of grass the entire year. If hay Is
plenty in the spring it is better for stock
than half feed on grass, and ten times
better for the pasture.
The thoughtless farmer scarcely lets
q spear of grass stick its head above the
snow-bank before he will turn his stock
in to eat it, and poach up the soil. And
too often both pasture and meadow get
this annual treatment. The right way
is to keep both in a good, rich and pro-
ductive condition, and then keep no
more stock than will eat in q suitable
time and way the products of both. Il
there be too little hay and too much
| stock the grass is sure TO suffer the next
spring. 1t Is almost impossible to
avoid IL. There must be Judgment and
wise management to make farm prof.
table. There is nothing to be let alone
nothing to take care Of itself. All OF
the time and expense must not be de-
voted to the grain crop. What is plant
ed should be done well and on soil well
prepared for it. Butin order to have q
plenty of meadow and pasture, raise
eighty bushels of corn to the acre In
stead Of forty. Or raise as much on
twenty acres as you do now on forty.
It can be done, and should be. The
acreage of all the cultivated crops can
be greatly decreased without lessening
the product. In this way the grass
lands can be greatly increased In acre
age, and much more time allowed to
enrich It in various ways to double its
capacity. These are not idle words.
This system of management is what this
country must come to. More corn,
more wheat and more grass on less
acres. But grass being worth as much
per acre as grain, with one-third of the
labor, it is policy and wisdom to make
Che soil more productive in the various
ways which good farmers know, and
then farm to more profit with less la
bor.--Ios0a StGte Register.

1850 it was $6,645. 600, 900, an in
Grease not quite equal to the increase

1t is fairly amusing, as one looks
over a number of exchanges week by
week, to see how the witty paragraphs
go the rounds. And it is even more
amusing to see with what regularity
old jokes are revived and sent on their
travels. It is only now and then that
something really new, some bright,
scintillating saying, makes tsappear-
ance. The witty men are very few.
And yet the papers are full of inter-
esting things and carry much infor-
nation to their readers. All OF which
teaches us that though very few of us
can be brilliant, we may be instruc-
tive and useful. Il is well, perhaps,
thatthe geniuses are rare; but whether
well or not. such is the fact. And
yet, after ALL we who are not geniuses
may be of much service. We may do
good, serviceable work which shall be
to the profit Of mankind. This APP
plies not only to the making of a
newspaper, but to every sort of work
that may be done for human good.
Great is the value of commonplace
