You Cannot SOW lnui ~inter rye too earl,
in September. 1t it sowed be carly, u
roots will get hrm bold Of the soil bcfor,
winter. that it viii be the less apt to ne lAu
bare ty the heaving of the groUnd by frost.
In the Memoirs OF the New Yori, Board ot
Agriculture. vol i. page 50, it is observc4,
"that rye should be sowea the last week in
August, or the ii IT week IN September, at
the rate OF SO quarts per acre, some sa, 4s
quarts. But if not sowed at that tine, il
ought to be delayed until late IN November,
SO that it may not come up till spring Mr..
A. Worthington had good crop, which he
sowed in a January snow storm. Rye that
is raised on upland makes much better
flour than that which is raise On low o:
damp land"


The quantity of seed to be sown on an acre
should vary according 20 the soil, and the
time OF sowing. and the purpose for which il
is intended. it be sowed in the latter part
OF August, or beginning Of September am
intended to stand for a seed-crop, the quar.
tity should vary from 80 to as quarts, &C
cordng to the quality of the soil. Late,
sowing requires more, and in some cases two
bushels to the acre will not be too great
quantity. Bannister's Husbandry SAYS
''when this grain is sowed for sheep feed, j
Is proper to allow three bushels to the acre
for where the blade. hanln. or stalks form
the primary object, much larger proper
slon ot seed is requisite than when the cro
IS meant for harvesting
