FARM* WARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.
Cattlac Urui.
The height of outting grass was discussed
by the Amerioan farmers' club.
Upon this topio it was found that the
practice and the opinions of farmers
differ widely, some advocating cutting
as olosely as possibly, some cutting from
two and a half to three inches high,
others from one to two, and others as
close as convenient.
One intelligent, practical farmer said
that he preferred to have hiB grass cut
high enough to protect the roots from
the hot sun. In his earlier experience
he had had timothy grass almost killed
by cutting olose in a dry, hot time. Particularly
on upland mowing grounds
does ho avoid outting close, as he believes
that the hot sun and dry weather
which usually follows the mowing season
has an unfavorable influence on tho
iuuw ui iiuti grass. uow ana wee meadows
he mows as closely as possible.
Grass (excepting on low, wet ground)
cut two inches starts much quicker to
grow than when shaved to the earth.
Another experienced farmer prefers
to shave olose, within an in h of the
ground, when possible, for he thinks
that if the soil is in good condition ai d
not too dry, it will start again immediately.
He top-dresses his mowing lnud
and prefers a compost made of woolen
waste and meadow mud for ground not
very wet; but for a heavy soil uses sand,
or sandy loam, to mix with wool waste.
He applied fifteen cartloads of thirty
bushels each in the late autumn.
The testimony on this Bubject, though
somewhat oonflioting, leads to the conclusion
that the height from the ground
at which it is best to cut grass, depends
on the season, the soil and the grass ;
as, for instance, no grass, except in
moist ground, should be cut so low in a
dry season as it will do to out it in the
wet season; also, the injury inflicted
upon the timothy by low cutting in dry
weather establishes the rule of cutting
higher from the ground. Most farmers
concur in saying that the fine glasses
rain be CTlt the lnwnnt ??
? .. .. WWV ?? ?wu (MIIOVJi pttl"
ticularly if the season is not too dry.
The talk turning to the time of cutting
grass also gave a variety of opinions.
These, however, indicate very
clearly the prevailing practioe of cutting
the principal grasses, timothy and redtop,
when in full blossom, red clover
when about half the heads are in blossom,
and small grass before it is ripo
and generally before blossoming if possible,
so as to prevent its becoming hard
and wiry.
Informal Questions and Aaawera.
When ought the larch be planted ?
As early in the season as the ground
can be worked. No other tree begins to
grow so early, and if the operation of
transplanting is delayed until the now
shoots have pushed, it is generally followed
by the destruction of the plant.
Sootoh and Gorsican pines can be
planted up to the first of May.

ooat less per acre than on upland, the
difference being in the preparing of the
ground and the weeding. The ohief
point is to select land frt e from weed
seed, as weedy land is very expensive to
tilL
Define day land.
Pure day is that from which no sand
oan be washed. Brick clay contaius
from five to twenty per cent, of sand.
Clay loam oontains from twenty to forty
per cent. of sand. Olay soils consist
largely of alumina. Olay itself is a compound
of silica (sand), acid, alumina aud
water. It also contains potash, soda and
lime. It forms a compact earth, soft to
the tonoh, hard in a dry state and sticky
when wet.
When must maple seed be gathered ?
The seeds of the silver maple and the
red maple ripen in two or three weeks
after the leaves are fully developed.
They should then be gathered and sown
soon after. Plant in drills .to the depth
of ffti inch, the rows being suflldeutly
wide apart to be cultivated with a harrow
or plow. When the ground is dry
roll it after planting. The young plants
will make their appearance in about ten
days, and must bo protected from the
direct rays of the sun if the weather is
very hot.

GREAT BRITAIN'S CUSTER'S.
When India was Thnnght ta Hare Bet n
l.sst to Knglnnd.
Iu the military history of India are
two case like Gen. Ouster's, and as both
convoy serious lessons, and both are of
| abiding military interest, please let an
ex adjutant of Hussars sketch them
briefly :
On the twenty-seoond of November,
1848, the Bengal army, under Lord
Gough, came into first oontact with the
Seikhs at Ramnugger. Col. Henry
Havelock, commanding the Fourteenth
(King's Own) Light Dragoons, now
Hussars, was then the Custer of the
English army. When a mere boy, and
infantry adjutant under Wellington in
the Peninsula, he led his fusileers on by
leaping his horse over a wall into the
midst of surprised Frenchmen, to t e
lasting admiration of Spaniards, who
gave him the by-name El Chico Blanco
(the fair boy). Havelock was so anxious
to win renown with his carbineers that
he had obtained permission from Adjt.General
Curiton, hi?old friend, to charge'
the enemy as soon as a chance should oocur.
Accordingly, the fair haired old
boy, when he caught sight of the clustering
hosts, swept away toward them
at the head of his regiment in open
column of troops, without taking any
account of the ground. A nullah,
however, interveued, the eand was knee
deep, and the Beikli batteries soon cut
Inuef through the ranks of the -gay
dragoons, -who, the Seikks declared,
must be drunk. The result was the same
as in the famous Crimean charge.
Havelock fell, with him many gallant
officers and men, including Gen. Ouriton,
who vainly galloped after his reckless
friend to recall him by higher
orders.
Hardly two mouths later a far greater
and overwhelming disaster befoll the
same army from unrestrained impetuosity.
After several engagements of minor
importance, the combined Alfghan and
Seikh forces, thoroughly organized on
European war footing by French, Italian
and Gferman ad venturers, we re brought to
bay at Ohillianwalla, in a difficult jangle,
on precipitous ground, and on mountain
ridges such as are described as being recently
held by the Sioux.
The thirteenth of January, 1849, was
an ominous day for the prestige of British
arms in India. The troops had a
heavy march in the morning, and at
about two p. m. Lord Gough's trumpeter
sounded the halt for the advanced
guard. The enemy being evidently in a
strong position, the veteran general decided
to attaok the next morning, and
the infantry of the vanguard piled arms
to allow the other oorps and the camels
and elephants, with baggage and commissariat,
to come up. When, however,
a few soldiers were knocked over by
round shot from a gun that the enemy
had pushed forward, Lord Gough impatiently
said: "My Irish blood can't
stand this," and ordered the advance.
The infantry brigade of the center, the
flower of the army, was ordered to carry
he strong position with fixed bayonets
and without firing a shot. Unfortunately,
the distances were greatly under
estimated, and the the ground much
more out by ravines than anticipated.
The result was that half of the officers
and men of the storming column were
shot down at leisure from behind rocks
uu iruw. ixjosu mat alter desperate
struggles met their gigantic foomen in
hand-to-hand enconnter were bo utterly
exhausted and ont of breath that they
oould not cope with the overpowering
numbers surrounding them everywhere,
and a disastrous retreat had to be made.
To make matters worse, a panic spread
all along the battle line. "India is
lost I" shouted a young aide-de-camp,
as he madly careered for the reserves:
" they are beating us everywhere 1" On
the right was a cavalry brigade that had
only a short time before, when in the
open plains, excelled in deeds of
bravery. But on that fatal thirteenth, a
decrepit brigadier of the East India
Company's service took command of the
brigade by seniority, superseding the
queen's officers. Cavalry and artillery
trotted into the jungle, where it was impossible
to act in rank and file; the
troops got broken up, separated from
eaoh other, and finally entangled with
the retreat of the oenter.
Night set in suddenly and swiftly, and
the moans of thousands of dying and
wounded resounded from afar, without
the possibility of giving relief, for all
the camp followers had fled, and not a
drop of water could be had. If the enemy
had known the utter disorganiza
tion of the proud British army on the
night of the thirteenth, and attacked at
daybreak, India, indeed, would have
been lost. For obvions reasons, the
whole truth of this tragedy has never
been divulged in England, but so threatening
was the aspect of affairs, as shown
by the light of private letters, that when
the news reached England, the Iron
Doke sent for Sir Gharles Napier to go
ont again to India immediately and take
oommand. Napier refused point blank,
because he had been snubbed by Lord
Dalhousie, the governor-general, or
"the boy politician, "as the oonqueror of
8inde called him. "Then I mast go,"
said the doke. This brought Sir Chirlea
to reason, and he consequently embarked
the same day. Fortune, meanwhile,
had favored Lord Gough; the
fortress of Mooltan, besieged by the
Bombay army, fell, and the released
army hastened in forced marches to the
rescue. The enemy blundered, forsook
his mountain position and drew into the
plains of Goojerat, where, on the twenty-first
of February, 1816, the English
gained a decisive victory, in oonsequenoe
of whioh the whole of the Punjaub was

who returned to their wilds at the out- |
break of tho war, and gave every Fed- e

Crook to his sister, on making a reprisal,
