I LIKE to sow grass-seed in dog-days, if the land is moist it has time then to start enough; and get a good root by the time the cold comes to close the ground. It will stand the winter better than if it is sown later. You can't be too careful in laying down land; a smooth and mellow surface is needed. The seeds of grasses are very small: they must have a good seed-bed, or they will not grow. A light top-dressing, sown on after the seed, is worth more than it costs; it gives a quick and strong start, and helps the young grass-plants to keep ahead of the weeds. A roller is one of the best tools on the farm for laying down to grass; it leaves a smooth and even top, and presses down the seed so as to make it sprout well. It is time, too, to sow winter grains. Rye and wheat do well here, and they pay as well as most crops. Fall ploughing is in order now. All stiff or strong soils are better for inf. early ploughing in the fall.

STREET. Farmer's Calendar. THE Corn is to be got in, the potatoes to be dug, the apples to be picked, and a thousand things to be done to get ready for winter. But the days are cool, and there is no time of the year when we feel so much like work. Winter grain may still be sown, and fall ploughing is still in order. Both oxen and horses can Expect a storm work better now than at any Length of night 12h. 41m. other time; and so it costs less about this time. than it will in the spring, to say It is the best time, too, to hurry nothing of the saving of time. up the fattening of all kinds of stock. Animals take on fat faster now than in cold weather, while the flies trouble, them less than they did a month or two ago. The roots keep on growing; but if there are any weeds, don't fail to pull them to stop them from going to seed. The growth of the year in forest and fruit trees is about finished, and so it is a good time to cut timber. It will last longer and dry better cut now than at any other time. Loam and muck may be hauled into the yard to use as a compost. It is rather late to sow grass-seed and winter grains, and if we failed to get it in last month, better wait till the end of next, and sow it just before the ground freezes. It is better to sow then than to wait till spring. 15 W. Gold 103, 1877. 19 E 20 Mo. 21 Tu. 22 W. 1879. NOVEMBER, Eleventh Month. Astronomical Calculations. Days. d. m. Days. d. m. Days. d. m.
