scours, ami it is thrae weeks earlier than
any other crop you can grow for that
purpose, so prepare your land and sow
at least two acres, hut dn not make the |
common mistake of sowing on poor land
for you will not make an early crop.
Sow your rye now,*aud mnunre it this
winter at the rate of forty loads of ma
nure to the acre, and you can plant the
land to corn after the rye is oil’. This
system of intensive farming is far bet
ter than the old way by which a piece of
land was Idle half the tUne. Some far
mers say you will exhaust your laud, as
it cannot stand two crops in QUO year.
Wliat. is the differt'iiee between a crop
of rye and weeds, aud a crop of ryeand
corn? The weeds exhaust the vitality
of the laud as much as the corn, so hail
you not hetter grow a crop of rye and
corn and keep down the weeds? The
rye can be used as a starting crop for
eluver or grass, w hfeh can be sowed
with it, and when the rye is out tin-
land can he given up t<* the grass crop.
