'OVSB Am/**# sowl-s Wlol.rWb.«J nar remarks last week Jnder the £ bead were to the S , reparation pound. jfof feeing the Tb !d and the choice and prepera the seed for this crop, ere.al lloß k-Wortby of ooneiderntfon. On “*trwehaver,ofertiluerthat a take the place of barn-yard n» m ‘ tVb.n this has been made well-led cattle, has been well manipulated and preserved from SJLtber, and well rotted, it .8 llv sufficient, with an occasional a" Ling Of miners! manures, to |v all the needs of all our crops. B„, that farmer has ever been Lwn whose ideas as to a jmffic.en r, of ham-yard manure Bave ever !„ satisfied? Those whose re sources are ample enough to supply twenty tons per acre to then fields once in five years would still like to Wve more ; and farmers who can baal out of their barn-yards 200 loads of well prepared manure dur ing tbe last days ot August in each year are very rarely met with. the wheat crop is one that Jll not stand very heavy fertilizing w uh stimulating manures without additional mineral fertilizers to gtiffen the straw, and fill the berry. Many a wheat-crop is laid or rusted, and the farmer’s hopes blighted, by vant of lime, salt, or phosphoric acid in addition to the barn-yard manure. There Is rarely danger of too much of the latter, if proper proportions of the former are used. In proportion to the richness of the g o ii in vegetable and animal matter mineral manures are to be used. When the soil is well filled with de- composing vegetable matter, fifty bushels of lime per acre may be useJ with the best effect. This should he drawn tresh from the 'kiln after the last plowing, exposed in 6 mall heaps to the rain until finely slacked, and -then immediately spread evenly, and harrowed into the soil. Its beneficial effect will be in proportion to its fineness, and tu the evenness with which it is spread. If forty bushels per acre is the quantity chosen, lines two rods mart should be staked out both ways across the field, and a bushel footed at each intersection/Each i l)a sbel will then when spread cover four square rods or two rods square. If less or more in proportion is to be spread, the heaps should be less or greater to suit. One rod each way is a very convenient distance to throw the lime from a shovel, and this plan will be found as good as any, if not the best. The effect of lime is to stiffen the straw, produce a hard, clear berry with a thin husk which shells readily beneath the niili-siones and thus produces a fin er. whiter dour. An application ot four bushels ot salt per acre in the Spring has almost exactly the same tfleet, but a great secondary advan tage of the lime is, its beneficial effect on the grass and clover. It is “the on" thing needful” for them and the ttt'-'d of the salt is only temporary and to benefit the wheat. It is more than questionable if superphosphate of lime applied in the Fall pays ex- I'oiim-s. Its effect is solely on the trniui. and long before the opening of the growing season in the Spring,- the -"dub ility of this fertilizer is de stroyed. Superphosphate lifts a hab it ot '■going back” on the fahpier. M" ( ting with lime or other alkaline auces in the soil, the free phos fhonc m id forms an insoluble com l' 11 and, and thus “goes back” to its estate, that of insoluble phos -I‘hate of lime. Applied when the *beat is well started in the Spring, >ts effect is more apparent. The mod of the wheat plant in tl* fc l all is to get a vigorous growth, "h'di shall enable it to withstand changes of weather which is fatal to a weak and sickly plant. Superphosphate of lime not supply lnS this present need, is not there frre always profitably applied in tire frail sowing. If sufficient barn-yard Manure is not within reach, a sub stitute may be found to some ex tent in guano or some of the ammo- C! acal manures, as flesh or blood preparations, but without a fair al lowance of stable manure wheat is n °t likely to be a satisfactory crop should be substituted. choice of seed is one to be jQnde with caution. It is not every fit' wltite wheat White wheat seeds * rich soil, veil drained. On soils which are grav elly, or inclined to loam, amber wheats are to be preferred. Diehl wheat bears a good reputation, and a high price, and is probably the safest of the white varieties. Tread* well is an excellent amber wheat, and may be ifelied upon as proof against the midge. It produces a choice flour, and yields well. On the average run of soils the hardier i red wheats will be found the safest to sow. Whereat is thought expe dient to make experiments in trying new seeds, they should be made cau tiously and with small quantities, lest a whole crop might be lost by failure. As wheat cannot mix when different varieties are sown near each other in the same field, a strip of some new variety might very 1 profitably be sown each year as a I test. In this way, if successful, a stock of seed is procured, and if it fails, but little harm is done. The quantity of seed sown to the acre should depend on the character of the soil to a great extent. On rich soil, able to produce a strong plant, thin sowing should be the rule. In an experiment made a few years ago under exactly equal con ditions, the writer raised thirty-five bushels with five pecks of seed per abre, twenty-five bushels with seven pecks, and only fifteen bushelsjyith ten pecks. The same result has been reached by others and with other grains. When sown thinly the wheat plant “tillers,” or spreads enormously. Thirty stalks have been counted, and in some instances many more, from a single root, each having an ear, in places on the edge of a field where this peculiarity of the wheat plant had a favorable op portunity to be developed.<T Botan- Ically, the wheat plant (Triticum vulgare) belongs to the same genus ot grasses as the quack grass, (2H$-^ 1 icum repens ) and possesses a some i what similar habit of spreading trom the root. This, ot course, is encouraged by thin sowing, and materially prevented by thick sow ing. But it is only on strong, rich soils that the plant will be so vigor ous as to be able to throw out off shoots, and therefore the thin sow ing would fail on lands of a different character. On poor lands (at least comparatively) not less than two bushels should be sown. On really poor lands, (that is, on lands that would not produce more than fifteen bushels of corn or 1,500 pounds of hay per acre,) wheat will be a most unprofitable crop, and rye should be sown instead. But any crop on such lands is unprofitable, and the owner of such a farm should at once turn his attention toward improve ment, as it will never pay to farm land too poor to grow wheat. Wheat is very often seriously effected by a fungoid parasitic di sease known as rust and smut. Elsewhere the nature ot this fungus is described. An effective remedy against it is found in steeping the seed. A saturated solution of com mon salt, or stale urine, or a solution of four ounces of blue vitriol to a gallon of poured into a shallow tub, large enough to hold a bushel-basket. The seed wheat in the basket is dipped into the liquid, and retained in it for five minutes, during which the grain is stirred. It is then set aside to drain, so that the waste steep may return to the tub. It is then thrown upon the barn floor, and ground plaster or finely slacked lime is thrown up on it, and the mass is stirred with a shovel until dried. It should be sown immediately. This process is certain distraction to the spores or germs of this injurious fungus. 2Veto York Semi- Weekly Times.
