If so, and you heve children, DO yon
think you are making the most OF

ever have romp with father? If
large enough to work, who do they
work with, the Lired man or You?
When 4 shower comes up, where do
the boys go, and who are their com
panions.
No man has better opportunity
than the farmer to mould his boys.
No boys can more easily than the
farmers fall the prey Of foul-nIndcd.
evil disposed men or boys.
A good mother remarked to US tn
other day that seven years with thei
father on the farm had made her
boys much more tender hearted
This shows the moulding influence
the father has if he uses it Alright.
Don't ncgle ct tho boys. Have theu
work with you, and in the hour
when they cannot work give then
some place beside the barn to lounge
in. and something beside coarse
jests and low talk for entertainment.
BE q father to them. Let them con-
tide in you; be glad to them; enter
into their plans; encourage them t.
come TO you with all that interests
them.
Let the girls know that father
cares for them too, and don't ex-
pend so much for training a colt
that you have nothing 20 let the
daughter have with which to attend

One Of The chef difficulties II the
way Of Introducing grasses ID the
South seems to be poverty Of Eoil, II
being conceded generally tLa5 it
requires fertile land to produce
grass. OF tie many varieties recon
mended to farmers, no one pOssesses
greater value in some respects thar
orchard grass. 1t is easy to grow
where the land is sufficiently fertile
to produce it. There is no trouble
about getting q stand i. the land is
properly prepared. Once a stand
has been secured it will not need
re-seediug. as the grass is perennial.
Orchard grass yields only moder>
ately abundant crops, but when
moved at the proper time makes hay
Of very excellent quality. The
writer has o piece which was sowed
four years age, which yields now as
abundarlly as it did the second
year, notwithstanding it has been
moved regularly three times
each year since the first, that is, til,
year it was put in.
1t may be soWed at any season =,
either spring or fall, the chances for
a stand being equally favorable as
far as the writer's experience ex-
tends. 1t will stand close grazing,
and is, in some respects, the best
grass we have for that purpose .
We have an acre lot that was grazcd
closely last summer that yielded as
fine crop this spring as it did last,
allowance being made for difference
of seasons. The grass seems to be
specially adapted for pasture.
There is one objection to the
grass. 1t will grow too much in
branches, and as meadow grass
will not yield as large crops as red
top or other varieties. With a mix
ture it might be made to answer the
purpose of meadow grass. Being
quick to grow in the spring, it would
give crop of hay early In the sea
son. Like most other grasses OF
value it requires as was said above,
fertile lands to produce it. To SOW
1t on poor fields wOuld be waste OF
labor. We do not compare it with
clover, or other grasses. Each has
its place Old the farm.
