Printers, AS the Crows are frequently veiytrou bletome, by eati: g the Indian Corn after it is planted, I wilh yon to publilh the following very easy method to prevent it .: -■ Difl'olve three quarters of a pound of Salt-Petre in water enough to cover half a bulhel as feed corn ; let it soak three or four days; stir it carefully once or twice each day, that all the corn may be impregnated with it, and the Crows will not visit the field more than once, and then will eat but very little of if. It is also of great service again 11 the Grub- Worm, lo troublcfome in low ground. And Meflrs. Pt,inters, let me also tt commend planting Corn the beginning of May, and if by a late fioft in the fpn'ng it is killed, do not replant it, as it, wifl sprout again, and before the fall tevover its full growth,-and be as forwatd as if the froft had not touched it. Many are so fearful of a froft in the spring, as to make it so late before they plant, that the corn is often hurt by the froft in the fall, which it can never recover. A FARMER. t*_ From the Central Ad-vert ifer. AN ACCOUNT , OF A NEW SPECIES OF WHEAT. THE history of forward winter wheat, J.V 1 • TT- • . . Caroline, of that ilate, about seven years iaft, purcbafed of a merchant a quantity ' ~ mg fownit, when his wheat was in flower, observed a finglt ear, almoit ripe. Hence he conceived an idea, that it might be a different species. To determine this, he carefully preserved the wheat produced by this fulitary ear, which has now multiplied to such a degree, as that several thousand bufhtls wiu be produced at the next harvest, it having been distributed into many hands. But the charadtqr of this wheat deserves greater attention. And as in all proba bility, it has not yet entirely unfolded its qualities, it is much to be desired, that the best informed botanical knowledge, and the moil accurate agricultural experi ments, were united in its investigation. The following observations, have, for their basis several trials upon different foils, made in the two lafl years; a term so short, that it would be dangerous to allow an unsuspicious reliance. This wheat ripens from 15 to 20 days earlier than any other; the It raw is shor ter by about one third, than that of; any other kind, and the fame proportion is maintained in the length of the ear. But the ear always possesses a foil and perma nent appearance. The straw is encum bered with very little fodder. The circumstance of its ripening so early, produces the following important effects. I ft. It is never deftroytd by the rush An effect. towards which the nakedness and lowlefs of the straw, by allowing more freely the a&ion of the fun and air, must considerably contribute. Upon this point, the experiments appeared to be cbnclu five. The two last years were Angularly un seasonable upon wheat in general, after it was in the ear, where the experiments were made, and mod so upon this particu lar species. But this bid defiance to the pestilence, and weighed above sixty pounds to the bushel, whilst all others fuffered a loss of about one third in quantity, an d did npt in weight exceed an average of fifty-five. The experiments were made in fix different places. Upon new, old, ftiff, light, poor and rich ground. And the different forts of wheat were sown on the fame day, immediately contiguous to each other, early andfcpe. I
