jr if. /? _Hungarian Millet should be sown 
about corn-planting time, or perhaps a week or 
ten days later. This rule will hold good In Cen¬ 
tral New Hampshire and in other localities West 
or South, hut tho oeed will not germinate in a 
cold, wet soil. Hence tho necessity of waiting 
until tho ground becomes warm in spring. A 
half-bushel of seed is generally sown per acre, 
but some farmers use three, pecks, in order to 
havo the hay fine and not so coarse as it some¬ 
times grows on rich land. Tho yield of hay is 
quite variable, though it is usually much greater 
than any of the perennial grass, hut we do not 
remember of ever having seen any statement, in 
regard to the number of tons which have been 
produced on an acre. Few persons would care 
to incur the troublo and expense of weighing 
their crop of Hungarian Millet, any more than 
they would their corn fodder.
