The following will be found, by the general agricultural reader, to con tain a great deal of interesting aB well asusef#! information on the sub ject of Buckwheat. 1. Itß Origin and History.—Buck wheat, or literally 6<>ec/i-wheat—so ■dlLiicd from its seed resembling in the mast of the beech—is c'on wfr ded by all writers to be a native of , W'entr»rand Northern Asia "though the time of its introduction into Eu rope is differently stated. Some say it was brought by the Moors into Spain in the eighth century, others that it came with the Crusaders in their return from the Iloly War in the twelfth ; and be that as it may,it is certain that it has been cultivated in England only about two hundred aad fifty years. Its triangu'ar grain, arrow-shaped leaves, and fragrant, purplish white flowers, are too well known to require more particular description. 2. Introduction and Product in the United States. —It was first cultiva ted in the United States by the Dutch on the Hudson,and the Sweeds on the Delaware. It is mentioned among the grain products of the for mer, as early as 1620 ; and Kalm, a Sweedish naturalist, who visited this country 1748, speaks of it as found growing in Pennsylvania, New Jer sey and New York. These States still produce a largo share of the product of the country—in 1856, two-thirds, or seme 6,000,000 bush els.— Its cultivation, however, i3 rap idly extending—tljro' all the North ern and North-Western States, and the national product for 1856 was es timated at 15,000,000 bushels, a large ehare of which was consumed by the producers and their immediate neigh bors. fi. Varieties of Buckwheat. —Buck- wheat belongs to the Persicara tribe —that commonly cultivated is botan icallv known as the Polygonum fag opyrum. Among its varieties are blue, or "Canadian Buckwheat," very popular some ten years since in Eas tern New York and Pennsylvania, and the "Scotch Gray," now gener ally grown ns far as we are acquain ted. A variety called Indian buck wheat (P. tartaricum,) is grown to some extent in New England, for fat tening swine, not producing flour pal atable as human food. The kernel is harsh, coarse and nearly ovate, ami the product often large, yielding on rich, new soil one hundred bush els per acre. But half a bushel per aere of seed is required, and it may be sown from May until August, tho' early sowing is most advisable. The flour, ground without bolting, is near ly the color of sulphur. 4 Analysis of the Grain and Straw.- In its classification as a plant, says Frof. Salisbury, Buckwheat be. longs to a family far removed from the cereals ; but in tho composition and properties of its seed, it approx imates to them closely. One thous and pounds of the grain contain the following constituents, organic and inorganic: Starch 415 60 Albumen 06 60 C<u%ulai>l* albumen 98 Casein ? ♦ Gluten UU Sugar and extract 60 10 Oil and fatty matter 4 70 Dextriue and gwui.... 10 00 Film* 14a 90 Mat or 128 80 Amount of organic bodies and water 901 Silicic acid 0 72 Sulphuric acid 0 57 Phosphoric acid and Peroxide of iron 1R 19 lltnr 1 11 Magnesia 5 07 Potaah , 776 Nvta 0 88 eh torine ©„H Organic acids X 01 Amount of inorganic bodies 30 Total 1000 lbs. The green stalks of buckwheat, as analyzed by Crome, exhibit the fol lowing result: VVtiter 82 5 Starch 4 7 Woody fibre 10 0 Albumen 0 2 Extractive matter and gum 2 0 To al 100 Buckwheat straw, well cured, is readi'y eaten by most domestic ani mals, and contains, as above shown, considerable nutritive matter. 5. Soils and Culture. —Almost any eoil will produce buckwheat, bu 1 12, it seems best suited with light, warm lands of moderate fertility. It is as well adapted as any grain to low, moist lands, which dry off late in the spring, and suffer from drouth during the heats of summer when early sown, grain requires most mois taro. It germinates quickly, and soon throws out sufficient roots and leaves to secure a supply of water, both from the soil and atmosphere. The cultivation usually is simply to plow the land after green sward, early in the spring, then harrow or gang at the time of sowing. This grain is often sown on the ground in fested with weeds, which it is desired to subdue ; in that case more thor ough preparation should be given, that the entire surface may be en tirely covered. In all cases it is best to have the ground in fine tilth, and generally to roll after harrowing in the seed. Buckwheat will grow with out manure, it feels the application as quick as any other plant, and o corresponding increase in growth is produced. Plaster and ashes exert ■*n immediate influence and benefit. 6. Tinu of Sowing—Amount of SStai—-The tune of sowing is usually bet > en tho Ist and 28th of July, thou' r h it may be sown earlier—as soo-ii as danger from late frosts 19 to be feared no longer. Early sown buckwheat is liable to be blasted by the heat of July and August—late sown is equally exposed during the drouth often occurring in September, and in additi .n to this early frosts may cut it ofT, ere it begins to ripen. The cultivator must suit his own con venience in this matter—remember ing that some lands arc sooner affec ted by drouth and frosts than others. The amount of seed most gcneral'y sown, is one bushel per acre, but it is better to employ less than more, es pecially on the better soils. The great fault in sowing this grain is that too much seed is given. 7. Buckwheat to Destroy 1 Veeds.- Buckwheit is a cleansirg crop to the soil, and is often sown mainly for the purpose of clearing land of weeds, ami fitting for the higher cereal grains. Its roots penetrate deep in to the soil, which tends to its pulver ization, and the umbrageous charac ter of its growth, spreading over the surface, almost forbids any other plant, however strong its foothold, from growing beneath its branches. Hence it is invaluable on every kind of land, but more particularly on heavy, moist soils, most likely to be infested with weeds and bushes, and less easily worked for other cleansing crops. Even Canada thistles, those pests of the farm cannot contend success fully with successive crops of this grain. I'low thoroughly as soon as the soil is sufficiently warm for rapid vegetation, sow on buckwheat and it will start at on"e, and soon get above the sprouting thistles, and keep above them through the season. Thu~ shi ded, they can scarcely prow, and the rfame course followed a second season will almost entirely eradicate them. Some farmers sow buckwheat one year, following with oats, and seed to clover, with excellent effect in puri fying the soil. It is generally found that corn cannot be grown success fully after buckwheat; why,we know not. 8. Buckwheat a* a Manure.— Growing where clover will not flour ish, and in so short a time, (first to plow under in six or eight weeks,) this plant is often employed as a ren ovator of exhausted soils. The co pious foliage, and easy decomposition of the stalk, together with its depth and extent of roots, and the source whence it derives the greater portion of its supplies, render a buckwheat crop peculiarly favorable this sys tem. Three crops may be plowed under in a single season, and a single crop equals in effect a dressing of manure applied at considerable great er cost. 0. Harvesting and Threshing.— Though the blossoms continually forming will produco grain as late as the season will allow, the first ripen ed 13 heaviest anil most valuable. It should bo cut, perhaps, as soon as the lower leases begin to die, and with the cradle, if possible. If a frost should occur, and any portion of the grain, be ripe, it is best to har vest as once. After cutting, the swaths are raked into small bunch es, and set upright with the heads twisted together—leaving each bun dle to stand alone, the buts spread and resting upon the ground. Rain injures it but little, if thus treated, and it may stand for several weeks, or until thoroughly cured. Buckwheat shells very easily, and much waste often occurs before the crop is secured. Care in handling and use of tight bottom-boards for the wagon or sled upon which it is drawn to the barn, will prcweut this loss to a considerable extent. In case some other grain which would be injured by the mixture, is to fol low this crop, some means must be used to extirpate it from the soil.— Swine will consume much of that ly ing on the surface, and lightly har rowing will cause the remnant to veg etate, and the first frost will destroy the young plants. Threshing buckwheat upon the bare ground in the field, is but little practised at present. It is well, however, that it be threshed as soon as drawn :n, or if this may not be, it should remain in the barn until freezing weather, and it will thresh more easily. 10. Use as Stock Feed, etc. —By itself, this grain is not generally val ued very highly for feeding stock, unless it be for poultry. Mixed with oats, and ground, it furnishes a cheap and good food for horses, especially if not required to labor hard.—Some dairymen recommend it as an excel lent material for slopping milch cows. Mixed with other grain it is excel lent for fattening hogs, and even the bran is found to contain a large per centage of nutritive matter. One bushel of buckwheat is valued as equal to two bushels of oats for cows or swine. —A sharp grocer, when a customer wag buying a gallon of molasses, observed that a good deal remained in the measure after it was turned, remarked : " There was | some in the measure before I drew your gallon." —lt is proposed to erect in the publio gardens in front of the Capitol at Wash ington, a monumental fountain in honor of Colonel Elmer E. Elfeworth, one of the first b«roe# of the war. "HEBE IT IS" AN ARTICLE OF REAL MERIT.
