DESCRIPTIVE LIST GRASS AND CLOVER SEEDS, WITH SOME REMARKS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF GRASS CULTURE AND INFORMATION ABOUT PREPA- RATION OF THE SOIL, SEEDING, AND THE CARE AND MANAGEMENT OF MEADOWS AND PASTURES. The crop of Grass Seeds saved ihe past year has turned out considerably shorter than was antici- pated, and consequently prices are likely to rule higher than for the past two or three seasons. Clover and Timothy are, however, good crops, and are likely to continue at reasonable prices through the season. ' The high price at which hay is selling, and the favorable outlook for the same, should cause a largely increased acreage of grasses and clovers to be put in this spring. The general fadure of the European hay crop, and the consequent large demand at remune- rative prices for the surplus stock in this country, should cause a continued improve- ment in price for some time to come. Grass and Clover crops are the basis of suc- cessful farming. The farmer who gives a fair share of attention to these crops, and makes it a point to at least have enough land in grass to give a proper rotation and rest the soil, and where the system of farming will allow, keeps sufficient stock to make manure to improve his land and raise the crops, will not be dependent if, for any reason, the so-called money crops fail for a single season, or sell at so low a price as not to repay for the cost of production. There is no part of our fair South- land, not even the lighter soils of our coast region, but what, with a little knowledge and care in selecting grasses and forage plants suited to the soil, can easily be made to pro- duce satisfactory and profitable crops of feed and pasturage for stock. Another great argument for Grass culture is the greatly increase
