Summer Seeding to Grass.

American Agriculturist.
The most successful seeding to grass
may be done in July and August af-
ter the green crops have been taken
off. The, present season has been a
bad one for the seed sown last fall.
The hard winter destroyed the timO-
thy, and the late spring has interfered
greatly with the seeding of clover.
As a rule it may be said that summer
seeding is more successful than fall
and spring seeding, but the ground
must be thoroughly well prepared.
The whole secret lies in this prepare
ton. The following plan has been
found excellent.
The stubble is well plowed, not
more than four inches deep, and inn
mediately narrowed in a thorough
manner. There are several new i'm
plements which do this work in the
best manner, pulveRzing the soil,
leveling the surface and smoothing
it, so as to get theland in he most
Southern standard. (McMinnville, Tenn.) 1879-current, 1885-07-04

perfect condition for the seed. After
all this has been done, and the fur4
row marks obliterated, the seed is
sown and the surface Immediately
rolled. If this is done in July, moth
ing more is required. fit is done
later, it will be desirable to sow tur-
nip seed, at the rate Of one pound per
acre, with the grass seed. This af-
fords protection for the young grass
and clover in the fall and winter.
We have found it a good plan to
leave the turnips on the ground and
not gather them. They will bekilled
by the frost, and the leaves falling
down, furnish protection to the grass
during the winter, and in the early
spring, when so much damage is usu-
ally done by the alternate thaws and
frosts. The grass will usually furnish
one cutting the same season, but it
should not be pastured, as the surface
is not yet firm enough, nor the plants
sufficiently well rooted to stand such
a tax.

Emigration to the South.

American Agriculturist.
There are no finer opportunities to
be found in the whole country for
farmers and mechanics of all kinds to
secure pleasant and profitable homes
than in the Southern States. A tray
eler passing through Virginia, North
Carolina, and Georgia especially, will
be surprised to find himself in acoun-
try which differs but little as regards
the soil and its cultivation, from the
best parts Of Southeastern Pennsyl-
vania or parts Of Ohio and New York.
The chief differences are the sparse
ness Of homesteads, the absence of
herds, and the presence of cotton
fields.
Improvements are apparent on
every hand. The presence of new
corners is exhibited in new houses
and barns, in the herds of beef cattle
seen here and there, and in the broad,
luXuriant fields of clover. But the
improvement, as yet, is but a drop in
the bucket, as compared with the
room that remains for the profitable
enterprises of farmers, fruit growers,
dairymen, stock breeders, and sheep
growers; together with all sorts Of
workers in wood, wooden manufac-
lures, tanners and other mechanics.
One of the most charming regions, is
the broad mountain country of the
Blue Ridge, which runs from West
Virginsa down to the northern coast
of Alabama. There is no mOrepleas-
ant, healthful, and fertile locality in
our broad land than this. 1t is the
largest timber reserve now existing
in the United States, covering twelve
thousand square miles, of which
seventy-five per cent consists of for
ests of the most valuable kinds of
timber, The water is soft and pure,
and abundant. The region has an
average elevation Of two thousand,
five hundred feet, and an evenly
mild climate, so that cattle and sheep
can feed out nearly the whole year.
Grasses grow luxuriantly, and it is
well adapted for dairying. Moreover,
its varied scenery and salubriOus eli
mate render it a most desirable
home.

Absence from Church.

1t is often given as an excuse for
absence from church that the body is
so weary with work that it needs the
quiet Sabbath rest at home. But
there is a better way to rest the body
than by sleeping away the Sabbath
hours. The body of the laborer can
be rested from within by a great
thought and a great love. Let the
spirit lift its eyes to the hills from
whence cOmeth its help; let the soul
catch the Inspirations of its intended
destiny, let the heart join for an hour
with the angelic occupations of wor-
ship, and the body will feel a recrea-
ton from within that will send it
forth Monday morning with a shout
and a song to the tolls of the week.
The weary worker cannet afford to
lie down and forget his God. The
body is as dependent on the within
as on the without. The physical force
needs God in the soul to keep it from
chronic WEAKNESS. "In Him we
live, and move, and have our being"
All the functions and powers of our
being are replenished with life forces
by the exercise of public praise. Go,
then, to the sanitary, o toiler, o
weary one. We who are burdened
with sorrow, with the heavy load of
existence, goto the sanctuary, and
with a sincere, loyal heart, join in
the worship of Almighty God, and
be exalted to the joy of a son in his
fathers hoese.-D. c. Knowles.

Relief from Catarrh.

Prof. w. P. Johnson, Principal OF

This certifies that I have been a

business. Tried a number of most
eminent physicians North and South;
spent over $500. Twas partially deaf,

The Buckwheat Crop Valuable.
American Agriculturist.

American Agriculturist.
Buckwheat can be made a valuable
crop, if proper care is given to it.
This grain is worth at least seventy
five cents bushel for feeding, if it is
properly fed. 1t is best ground with
corn, as fine as possible, and may be
fed with cut hay Or straw moistened
with water. The seed may be sown
early in July. We have found thick
seeding the best. At least one bushel
per acre should be sown. 1t pays to
prepare the ground as well for this
crop as for any other, but it is es-
pecially useful for breaking up an old
meadow, and preparing it for reseed-
ing. The sod will be well rotted, and
the soil mellowed and made ready for
a fall grain crop, if this is desired, to
be followed by the grass seed the next
summer. No other crop, except peas,
so well mellows the ground as buck
wheat, and this is precisely the effect
required in reseeding land. Besides
this useful purpose, buckwheat is
valuable for its grain. 1t will easily
produce thirty or forty bushels per
acre if well managed, and a bushel of
it is worth two bushels of oats Of the
light sort usually grown, which is
largely husk. The crop, too, is put
in at times and harvested at times
convenient for the farmer.
