the death of one Of our numb Der, Brother
ALVIN E. WEIGH and we hereby attest our

This is best done with a barrel spraying
pump.
Remember that this is a preventive,
not cure, and the first application
should be made before @the disease ap-
pears. Paris green should be added tc
the mixture as needed for the potato
bugs. We had good results also from
adding soap to the mixture when applied
in July-one pound of soap for each
pound of vitriol. This checked the work
of the flea beetles.

SELECTION or GRASSES.
Varieties % Use When Seeding For Pa

Varieties 20 Use When Seeding For Pas
tuSe-varieties For Hay.
Ifseediseg for hay, the grasses selected
ought to be such as mature at nearly the
same time and which supplement each
other so that their constituents furnish
we'll balanced food. Ii the seeding is
for pasturage, varieties should be Sc
lected which do not mature together
but which start to grow in that success
sion which will bring the vigorous
growth of one after another has done its
best work. By using such grasses we
obtain comparatively constant supply
of fresh feed throughout the season. The
word mature" is used above to indi-
cate the condition of greatest feeding
value.
For seeding for hay Country Gentle
man tells that the following have been
found most valuable in southeastern
New York upon ordinary loamy soils ::
Timothy, redtop, meadow foxtail and
red clover. With this mixture the
meadow soxtail and red clover come to
their best earlier than the timothy and
redtop do. but when we consider the di-
gestibility of the material of the latter,
their greatest feeding value, in a gem
eral purpose hay, is found to coincide
very closely with the former as to their
proper time for cutting.
For permanent pasture the following
grasses have been found most valuable
in the locality named: Orchard grass,
redtop, crested dogs tail, meadow fox
tail and English rye grass. Where the
soil is upon limestone rock Kentucky
blue grass may be pro6tably added.
These may be mixed in parts of equal
money values, except that the crested
dogs tail, being more expensive, Snould
nave double the quantity by this rule.
1t is particular ly valuable grass.
For temporary pasture red clover
should be used with the above, but if a
permanent pasture is required it is quite
as we'll to omit it. 1t is advisable to
seed as soon in the spring as the ground
can be worked to advantage. Thorough
narrowing will be necessary for the best
condition to receive the seed. A liberal
quantity of seed should be used, and
after sowing light narrowing with
fine smoothing harrow is all that will
be needed, and the soil must than be
thoroughly rolled. 1t will be much bet
ter to seed without any grain crop, &C.
cording to the authority quoted.
