SORREL.
(TO THE EDITOR OB THE NEW ZEALAND MAIL.) v g IE) _In a recent issue of a contemporary I see the editor, in answer to an applicant to know how to suppress sorrel grass and ground sorrel, with his usual ignorance and consequent confidence, tells thirty to grub it out. It cannot be done. Deprive it of light and air for a time and it will die. Cover the ground with straw a foot thick in the autumn, and take it off or dig it in as manure in the ensuing spring, and then the sorrel will he pretty well destroyed. —Yours, &c, R. S.
