The native wild grasses of any region are those which have become most fully adapted to the soil and climate of that particular region. Such (trusses are, however, as a rule, much inferior to the rtandanl cultivated grawes of agriculture. It is possible, however, that with careful cultivation and selec tion many of thewo wild grasie can be improved without , maltrially decreos- ng their hardiness.

Battle, Experiment Station, Raleigh, diversified that there may , be some thing to sell each week, enough at least to purchase tbe little necessaries of family consumption. There are but few farmers that do not keep a few cows end farm fowls, that, if tbey are anyways cared for, will give a surplus of butter and eggs. If th ere is no aiur ket for milk it can be given to the pig" which cau be brough' Into market at paying figures. A good poultry yard well cared for will turn out eggs to sell all the time, with ail occasional broiler, and a few turkeys for Thanksgiving and for the Christmas holidays. A good garden will always produce some thing for market. A good orchard of well selected fruit will, a good portion of tbe time, produce aometbiug, either green or dried, for market. If the iaruier will provide these things his we will, aud be glad of tbe chance, -oave it in marketable shspe every time you want to go to town. In fact, I believe it would be well for tb. far mer to market at least twice a week, unless be lives too far, whether bis family needs supplies or not. He can thus gain a surplus tor . "rainy day." Every farmer ought to try to bring his farm to produce some article outside of tbe staple crops, and so instead of always going in debt, pay as be goes, he wotili have no need of complaint, or feel a depression and bard time. ilea for .asall Varan. We are convinced, says Field and Farm, that every farm, whether big or small, should have a silo, and it should be Ailed now with corn, sorghum, al falfa or other green growing fodder before the frrW conies.

Eiperiment Station. , Maaer la Applo. Western North Carolina is without doubt the finest apple region on the Atlantic elope, if not in the whole country. Tbe whole South ought to get its apple supply from this section and yet even the central and eastern parts of North Carolina get their sup plies of winter apples from th. North. Tbe high rates of railroad transporta tion are blamed a the cause for this, and doubtless this is one reason.' But tbe main reason is tbat the people bave not learned to handle' and ship ' apples. The following rule may be useful : 1. Gather all apples by hand Those shaken oft are not fit to ship. 2. Put only one variety In a barrel, and only good specimens. Keep the culling at home for vinegar. 8. Use only good, clean and tight barrels ; winter apples should not be shipped In slatted crate or ventilated barrels. i 4. Place the apples in the barrel by band, don't dump them lu. Round tbem up well above tb. top of th. barrel so tbat the bead must be forced in with a lever or screw press. This Is tb. essential point, for if apple, are loose in the barrel tbey will not ship iu good order. 6. Plant only few standard sorts that are well known in market. . There ere too many kinds now grown In Western North Carolina. W. F7 Iras' sey, Horticulturist, Experiment B ta li on. ( a Th. Meteorological Division of tb.
