land and f ind find it very profitable we noticed as early aa as august that some farl fari farmers hers had hid begun to cart out manure foi th this i purpose it should be spread down soon after the heaps are dropped and if the manure is lumpy it s should hould be pushed over immediately after s spreading p read in in order to bre break ak the lumps in pieces then when it should be picked oven over if the compost agis asis as casa case caso contains small stones such as are in the way of both hand scythe and mow ing machine farmers not suffer the manure heaps to remain too long before spreading them some even wait until spring before doing it this is bad economy ordinarily speaking it is said by some farmers that if a side hilly hill liable to be washed be top dressed 1 it is is better to let the manure remain till late in the spring before it is spread if this be an exception which some even doubt it is is no argument against fall spreading on level meadows when heaps of manure are suffered to remain un kin spread pre ad over winter it ift will be observed in in mowing that the grass is is much heavier where the heaps remained thus proving that much of the value of the manure was washed out during the fall and winter let manure for top dr dress ess ing then be early spread massachusetts ploughman noth THE TU E BEST BIEST TIME TI TO sow S ow I 1 have an impression that experimental peri perl eri erl mental knowledge is the most valuable eie ele for the farmer for more mord than half a century I 1 have been experimenting to find the best way to sow grass seed for lri III more ore than half a century I 1 have been experimenting to find the best time to sow grass seed for more than thirty of the first years of my farming I 1 did d id as my neighbors cioll did we supposed that the spring months were the only proper ones for that pur purpose pose but later in life by reading agricultural papers I 1 discovered that some goine enterprising farmers were successful in sowing their grass seed in august or september I 1 tried the ie expert experiment ent with complete success that hat haubein being bein the season it would naturally qa fall fali 1 it appeared evident to my mind that it ift was the right one but still later latek I 1 have not been particular and have sowed bowed grass gras seed at any season when my ground was prepared to receive it and if the seed was tras good it has uniformly vegetated and done don e well last fall we my son and myself after harvesting our potatoes from the low wet soll which would not admit of seeding down in early spring sowed bowed herds grass and redtop red top seed on the and of october upon said potatoe field doubting but still hoping for tl the lebest beitf and now the ath of july it bids fair to give Us the best crop of hay produced on any of my farm lots jots th this s dass grass probably will require two weeks longer to row than that which has h as be been en seeded iown own longer I 1 think I 1 never saw seed vegetate vegi tate better at any season grass seed will vegetate a long time after being sowed bowed in the spring of 1862 1 I seeded down a alot lot of good ground but rather dry with redtop red top seed the months of june and july were uncommonly dry johnd and atthe at the ohe middle of august there wano appearance of a grass sprout on the piece on the loth of august the same year it began to rain profusely and ind continued raining for several week aeki till the ground was saturated in Se more than four months after the see seed was sown every seed seemed to vegi fe i gl tate and the ground appeared like ilke ii kb a beautiful lawn and alid on the whole I 1 have concluded that any time when our land is in a goodstate of preparation to receive e thesbe
