Fall Seeding of Grass.
It is important if grass seed is to be
sown in the fall to arrange so that the
work can be done early in order that the
plants may- be able to secure a good start
to grow before cold weather sets in.
Have the boil prepared in a good tilth
before sowing the seed; and to this end it
is best to plough thoroughly and then
harrow, drag or roll until the desired con
dition is obtained.
With the exception of orchard grass,
nearly or quite all kinds of grass seed
usually sown for meadows are small, and
in order to secure a good termination ana
start to errow it is essential to have the
soil in a good tilth. Get good, clean seed
and have it fresh. Most varieties of grass
lose their vitality after they are a year
old ; hence it is important to get fresh
seed. Get clean seed. Most farm land is
foul enough with weeds without sowing
more in with the grass or gram. Ihen,
aeain. a certain Quantity of seed is con-
sidered enough, and when the seed sown
is mixed with weed seed, the proper
quantity will not be sown to make a good
stand. Get the supply ol seed needed in
good season, so an opportunity for testing
can be bad it necessary. Une important
item in seeding to grass is to get a good,
even stand, and using plenty of seed is
necessary for this.
When the seed should be sown depends
largely upon the season. Usually there
is no economy, in sowing grass seed unless
there is moisture enough in the soil to
induce a good germination of the seed
Grass seed needs little covering, it is
always best to sow as early as the condi
tion of the soil will admit. If the season
is favorable the latter part of August or
the hrst ot September is better than later.
Some prefer to sow with wheat. There
is less danger of freezing out if sown with
wheat than if sown alone. If this plan is
followed it will be well to use the broad
cast seeder attachment to the wheat drill,
doing all the work at once, and thus
lessening the cost. If sown alone use the
broadcast seeders, as the work can be
done much more evenly than is possible
by hand.
Usually it will be best to sow orchard
grass with clover or a small quantity of
clover with timothy ; but redtop will
generally do best alone,, as it ripens later
than other varieties. The principal objec
tion to mixing grasses is that, with the
exception of clover and orchard grass, no
two varieties ripen at the same time,
hence in cuttfng, one must be cut too
green or the other too ripe. Mammoth
clover is better than the common red
clover to sow with timothy on this
account.
The principal objection to sowing grass
seed in the fall is the danger of freezing
out, but if the soil can be prepared in a
good tilth and the seed be sown early, so
that the plants can get a good start to
grow before cold, freezing weather sets
in this risk may bo greatly lessened.
Generally, however, if the conditions are
such that the seeding cannot be done
reasonably early it will be best to wait
and sow early in the spring. St. Louis

What is the Cause of Cheat" Grass.
KlMBOLLTON, VA.
Editor of the Richmond Dispatch :
Will you kindly inform me through the
columns of the Dispatch what is the
cause or origin of the grass known as
"Cheat"? It appears that it not only
springs ap in a field of "stunted" wheat,
but is frequently known to succeed or
follow a crop of oats, corn, and sometimes
clover. Our farmers here cannot solve
the puzzle and so appeal to the Dispatch.
Kespectfully, n. t. p.
Cheat is an annual grass, and its
"cause" is the effort which all grasses
make to grow when conditions are favora
ble. Sometimes conditions are unfavora
ble for the growth of wheat (as in winter
killing, &c.,) while they are still favorable
for the growth of cheat, the seed of which
is in nearly all cultivated fields, and then
the wheat grows and some people think
the wheat has turned to cheat.
There is no such thing as wheat or oats
turning to cheat. Every kind of grass is
?ropagated from its own peculiar seeds,
f fields and seed-grain were kept entirely
free from cheat seeds cheat would soon
disappear.
Spinach.
As a garden vegetable spinach is de
serving of more attention than it com
monly receives. The plant is extremely
hardy and resists cold well, growing, even
in the winter, with but slight protection.
It should be sown in drills in rich soil,
with the rows far enough apart for cul
ture with a hoe. For very early spring
uso sow in the fall and cover with straw
to protect from the severity of winter.
In the Southern States winter protection
will not be required. Sowing in early
spring, as soon as the ground will admit,
is the most common way in the North.
Of the several varieties the round leafed
is a good sort for summer use. The
long-standing prickly is recommended as
one of the largest thick-leafed sorts, stand
ing the winter well and equally desirable
for summer planting. A variety ealled
New Zealand summer is said to succeed
well in the Southern climate, and may be
had for use any time of the year. The
seeds of this sort should be scalded in hot
water before sowing. Spinach is an ex
tremely wholesome vegetable, and a dish
of greens in spring and summer is very
palatable to most persons. New York
World.
0 Cultivators have found by ex
perience that a soil may be naturally rich
in potash, and yet be very poor so far as
the production of rich herbage is con
cerned ; and yet potash that has once
served in organic structure is among the
best of the fertilizers of the soil. It is
coming to be more and better understood
that the small fungi, which at times play
such destructive pranks among plants
and animals, are in the main among the
most beneficial of the agencies of Provi
dence in building up the world. Just how
they operate on this mineral question is
not known, but in connection with the
nitrogen which plants contain a great
deal is being learned. Plants cannot take
up directly the free nitrogen which the
earth and air contain, but through the
dead remains of what has been previously
organized. This is the theory of stable
manure. But fungi seems to have this
power. The mycelium of a fungus will
radiate for many feet, utterly destroying
the grass that comes in its way . but the
new crop of grass that follows is rank and
luxuriant, by the great deposit of nitro-
Sen left through' the fungus action.
leto York Independent. ' ; T-
Handling Crops.
I wrote an article for the Cultivator on
"Handling Crops" some little time since
The matter is so very important that it
should be kept.beiore tne iarmers uni
the evils are fully corrected. .
In conversation a few days since with a
cotton merchant, he remarked to me that
cotton farmers did themselves great barm
in their rude manner of handling cotton.
A very little care, if uniform among far
mers, would bring them great advances
above the present income from the crop.
The crop for the last season has been
allowed to suffer immense damage from
exposure to rams. " All this could have
been saved at very little cost far less
than the expense from the damage re
ceived. The difference in price of one
bale would have been amply sufficient to
have paid the expense of a shed to cover
all the balance that were exposed. The
shed would then have been a permanent
fixture and ready for the next crop.
" The cotton merchant stated another
fact that accounted, to some extent, for
the very low price of cotton. He said
that on bad cotton there was, in every
case of its sale, some possible chance of
scale and the first purchasers were com
polled to secure themselves by keeping
within such price as would save them
from loss This, of course, affects the
farmer, as the hurt starts with him. The
merchant said further, in explanation of
this statement, that damaged cotton is
like poor and inferior goods of any kind,
at great disadvantage on the market, and
it must take its chances, with nothing in
its favor.
I then asked him why the cotton men
did not make some united statement about
the great advantages to come from careful
handling of cotton. He replied, for two
reasons : 1st. The farmers had been told,
time and time again, that it would pay
them to give more care to the proper
handling of cotton, and it seemed to have
little or no effect. 2d. Such a statement
from merchants would be taken as, possi
bly, concocted against the farmers' in
terest, as farmers seem to think the mer
chants are not their friends.
All the testimony is in favor of better
handling of crops, especially cotton.
Proper economy Will be profitable under
improved business methods. Farmers
should give more attention to these de
mands ; see that the crop is more care
fully gathered, ginned and packed, and
then secured from rains and storms ; im
prove the standard and make it uniform
if they would make cotton raising profita
ble under our expensive methods of cul
ture. W. J. Northen in Southern Culti
vator. A Long Tail on Cow.
W. H. Seelye of Kalamazoo, Michigan,
a dairyman of long experienco says : "I
know of no physiological reason why a
long tail is a good sign in a dairy cow,
but 1 do know that nil our best cows have
them." Mr. J. B. Knapp of Portland,
Oregon, gave a corresponding opinion in
the Dairyman not long ago. The Hol
landers for hundreds of years have ob
served that their most promising and
long milking cows had long tails. Hence
it became a settled thing with them that
the tail should extend at least below the
hock. The Dairyman says : "The long
tail is an indication of nerve power, and
that is always a thing to be desired in a
cow. It is equivalent to what we call the
'staying pawer' in a race-horse."

Wonders
Are wrought by the use ol Ayer's Hair
Vigor in restoring gray hair to its original
color, promoting a new growth, prevent
ing the hair from falling, keeping it soft,
silky, and abundant, and the scalp cool,
healthy, and free from dandruff or humors.
The universal testimony is that this prep
aration has no equal as a dressing, and
is, therefore, indispensable to every well
I urnished toilet.
"I have used Ayer's Hair Vigor for soma
time and it has worked wonders for me. I
was troubled with dandruff and was rapidly
becoming bald ; but since using the Vigor my '
head is perfectly clear of dandruff, the hair
has ceased coming out, and I now have a
good growth, of the same color as when I
was a young woman. I can heartily recom
mend any one suffering from dandruff or
loss of hair to use Ayer's Hair Vigor as a
dressing." Mrs. Lydia O. Moody, East
Pittston,Me.
- "Some time ago my wife's hair began to
come out quite freely.
Ayer's
Hair "Vigor
not only prevented my wife from becoming
bald, but it also caused an entirely new
growth of hair. I am ready to certify to this
statement before a Justice of the peace."
H. Hulsebus, Lewisbnrgh, Iowa.
"Some years ago, after a severe attack of
brain fever, my hair all came out. I used
such preparations for restoring it as my phy
sicians ordered, but failed to produce a
growth of hair. I then tried, successively,
several articles recommended by druggists,
and all alike fell short of accomplishing the
desired result. The last remedy I applied
Was Ayer's Hair Vigor, which brought a
growth of hair in a few weeks. I think I
used eight bottles in two years; more than
was necessary as a restorative, but Miked it
as a dressing, and have continued to use it
for' that purpose. J believe Ayer's Hair
Vigor possesses virtues far above those of
any similar preparation now on the market."

general rule, improvement follows shortly
. after beginning the use of this medicine.
With many people, the effect is immediately
noticeable; but some constitutions are less
. susceptible to medicinal influences than
others, and the curative process may, there
fore, In such cases, be less prompt Perse
verance in using this remedy is sure of its
reward at last. Sooner or later, the most
- stubborn blood diseases yield to
Ayer's
Sarsaparilla
"For several years, In the spring months,
I used to be troubled with a drowsy, tired
feeling, and a dull pain in the small of my
back, so bad, at times, as to prevent my
being able to walk, the least sudden motion
causing me severe distress. Frequently,
boils and rashes would break out on various
parts of the body. By the advice of friends
and my family physician, I began the use of
Ayer's Sarsaparilla and continued it till the
poison in my blood was thoroughly eradica
ted." L.W. English, Montgomery City, Mo.
'.'My system was all run down; my skin
rough and of yellowish hue. I tried various
remedies, and while some of them gave me
temporary relief, none of them did any per
manent good. At last I began to take
. Ayer's Sarsaparilla, continuing it exclusive
ly for a considerable time, and am pleased
to say that it completely
Cured KVXe.
I presume my liver was very much out of
order, and the blood impure to consequence.
I feel that I cannot too highly recommend
Ayer's Sarsaparilla to any one afflicted as I
was." Mrs. N. A. Smith, Glover, Vt
"For vears I suffered from vumfnio n
blood diseases. The doctors' prescriptions
and several so-called blood-purifiers being of
no avail, I was at last advised by a friend to
try Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I did so, and now
feel like a new man, being fully restored to
health." C. N. Frink, Decorah. Iowa.
