on thinner land than any other gfa|n
crop. ana corn land which has pro.
duced four or FIVE barrels Of corn may
be relied on for a good crop Of rye
which will furnish good grazing from
late fall TO spring for sheep and Young
cattle whenever the land is dry enough
to admit the hoof upon It. Farmers
who have osttheir hay Or other forage
crops BY the floods Of the present soa-
son. may with profit avail themselves
Of rye for winter grazing. as well as
Of the large amount Of irst-class loraQe
to be secured by the blades. shucks
and stalks Of corn, when the crop is
harvested in the manner suggested.
But we wish to use the rye as a stone
which s.will kill two birds at tho no
time" When the rye is sown-say
from the 1st to the 10Th OF August Ia
Virginia--put broadcast 800 to 400
pounds OF good acid phosphate. 20)
pounds Of kainit, or other form Of
potash; harrow these thoroughly in.
and as finish, SOW one gallon OF
clover and two bushels OF orchard-
grass seed to the acre, lightly harrow
ing or brushing these seeds, il there IS.
no appearance of an early rain. Tho
rye will shelter and protect tho Young
grass dgring winter. and when spring
comes, lei sbe rye get into bloom, and
then NOW it and let lie as mulch to the
young grass, whieh viii establish and
protect it against the hot weather Of
summer This method o. using rye is.
preferable to its production Of grain
and straw. Its average yield OF grain
is rather higher than wheat, but its
average price win rarely 60 beyond
eighty cents bushel; and whilst the
straw is in fair demand for the man
ufacture Of coarse paper and for stuff
ing horse collars, yet the price to DO
realized is not very rcmunerative.
The loss Of the grain and straw in tho
proposed manner is more than coun-
terbalanced by the winter grazing il
affords, by its protection in winter to
the young grass, and by its further
protection by its mulch from the heat
and droughts of summer, to say ncth-
ing of the fertilizing effects Of the de-
caying swath on the land. We have
made some small experiments in this
direction by which our suggestions arc
prompted. and as a reasonable and
sound theory, we think this is one Of
the simplest and cheapest means for
getting the land set in grass. The pro.
vailing method of sowing grass seed
in spring, leaves the young plants to
theIhazard of summer heatand drought.
whilst grasses sown in the last month
Of summer will have the benefit Of
the usual fall rains and will be we'll
rooted by spring. being thus advanced
one year. Southern Planter.

every good. Pork is commencing to come
in from the country and seems to be of un-
usually good quality. We are paying from

Creamery butter is little quiet with a
steady demand but there is an abundance of
