Safety of the System an reqardfi JJay and Pasture. — One of the most experienced farmers on Bowmont Water once told me that he estimated that they suffered from drought one season out of three. Since taking up the Clifton-on-Bowmont farm, in 1887, our hay crops have always been good, though we have had some seasons of severe drought, besides other minor droughts. In one of these, with the old system, much of the stock would have had to be sent off the farm ; the flocks in the neighbourhood grea...tly suffered, while we had abundant feed, in consequence of the drought-resisting nature of the mixtures used, and it may be mentioned that the stock kept considerably exceed that formerly kept on the farm previous to ray occupation of it.
