On our soil it yields well and come well up to timothy for tliu first year, but it doe not stand at nil when sown alone, wilhrvo, lodging almost as flat as though rolled. It will not Winter as well as tho above named grasses." A new method of dressing chickens for market is given by a correspondent of thu Massachusetts "i'louihmiin.
