Summer and Fall Seeding and
Top-Dressing.

Many farmers are finding it to
their advantage to seed down during
the summer and fall, claiming that
by so doing they are apt to get a
much better "catch" than they do
when they follow the usual prao tice
and seed down in the spring.
The same is true regarding top
dressing grass land Some of the
most progressive farmers put on top

A Good Definition.

In one of the New York schools sew
eral of the children in one class failed
on the definition of the word bachelor.
The teacher, to impress the meaning
of the word on the minds of the pu-
pills, told the class to look up the word
that night and come prepared with a
good definition the next day.
When the question was taken up at
the next session the first little girl
who was asked to define the word an
swered with a confident and smiling
air, "a bachelor is a very happy
man."
The teacher grew interested. Are
you sure that is correct?" she asked
the little one.
"Oh, yes" was the prompt reply.
