. Turner's North Carolina almanac : for the year of our Lord ... . f ashes, two of salt and a hun-dred and fifty pounds of bone dust to theacre will prove effective on soils of evenmedium crop producing capacity.

For cutting green for earlyfeeding, or for fall or spring pasturing, itis better to sow early and make successivesowings. For these purposes two bushelsof seed to the acre is not too much, andfor a crop of grain one bushel is not toolittle. A soil that is too light for wheatwill often give paying crops of rye, butthe land ought to be in good tilth. Fre-quently, indeed, as a rule, the straw ofrye brings as much as the grain, where acity market is convenient, and thus oftenmakes it more profitable than rye is to be cut green for stock theland ought to be made rich, the yield islarger and it comes earlier.
