This waste arises from too deep, too shallow, too heavy or and too uneven. If ground it plowed l, and the seed applied to it in that t d portion of the grain is covered ftv- If tbe soil is dragged down smooth and the grain buried bv the har •rill he a loss from too shallow cov . t ; it appears that tbe best mode P ul lis to put the ground into good i. and sow with the drill, or use the 1 valor to cover. . .am ui;l ot grain suitable to be used , >e piece of land might not at all be .iatc for another, the strength and soil must in all cases be taken onsideraticn. If the field is of clay, and lumpy, more seed will be required on" a mellow well-fitted piece, and •j,! will mature a much-heavier f course, than that which is com ly poor. ' Lar\ t time tbe result ot heavy, light, ! ex i seeding can be plainly seen, bin, the growth of straw will be -heads long- and the kernels plump, J light, for the soil did not have ii ; roduce more than one-third the j- I*, was ci-paole of doing. :e the acting was too heavy, the straw ai *, but the grain heads are short, v til filled, and the crop light. Where v,;,, fowing is done, the quality of grain ;itd us tbe cases above mentioued. ''horcu e J ditching is another important . • \a observed in wheat growing; sur ater should never be allowed to stand a field, not even for a day, for wher er a ; lant is allowed to be flooded at each .vy rain, no grain will be fonud at harvest time. A II AL>LEY, iu a communication to the Xvrihtcutern Farmer, gives what he regards •1: three important reasons why clover should alwavs he growu with timothy, first, the clo ve;- being taprooted, penetrates deeply, stands , -ht, mellows the soil, and the timothy o> much stronger and holds up tbe clover, cond, if sown Tor pasturage, the timothy almost universally prevents the clover from swel'ing cattle. Thirdly, hay is too binding, ipeciaily for cattle, and clover too washy jcculent); hence, both together are better .an either alone. To these we may add, un. 'cr' he head of the first, where grass comes relation, it is of the utmost importance, ~ a clay soil, that at last a part of this grass ■) be clover. It will serve to mellow and t -, n the heavy soil in a remarkable degree, when turned over with a plow, it will ot - :i!v he rich, but loose and pliable. If, , n the other hand, timothy alone be sown (ahiih some do because the hay sells better), the soil will turn over heavy and clammy, an ' ; unfit for any crop which is to follow. ■rrespondent says that he is par rve for calf or sheep pasture, which he onaily sows in the summer or autumn, - ;i crop of corn; and then, after being ed winter and spring, it is turned under spring crop —corn, if the soil be strong h—or it may he allowed to go to liar : * good plan to give farm horses the of weedy stubble and other fields late be season.

SPARE THE TREES. : litre is yet ail over the country, and par larly in the West, except upon the prairies There necessity has been a teacher, too great .. di.-position to cut down trees —fruit trees as - ;t. forest trees—with too much reckless iiid disregard to future profit, comfort ;■ elegant.-. Let every farmer resolve forth_ with, if be has not already done so, to com mence saving all the trees that are of any v alue, that he can, by a lair calculation, esti mate to be worth more standing and growing tkau if cut down. Let this apply to trees in I be forest, as well as forest or truit trees along ft fine of his fences. T' a general, earnest effort on the part of ,::ers to preserve all that is valuable among iheir trees, much of the evil that has been ihiue by the thoughtless slashing and cutting some of our pioneer settlers uiaybe. in a degree, atoned for. Some of the former mag licent o*k, chestnut and maple timbered nJ- of our country will require almost a ury to be redeemed to anything like the of thrift and elegance they might now ha\c been in, had they been providentially .oged by their original settlers, or by . j e who have so ruthlessly devastated them. ■ hope the day of burning and destroying H and throwing away manure has nearly passed away. KEEPING CORN. ,deal of corn is wofully wasted after utile and expense or plowiug, ud harvesting. This waste is absolutely , and with trifling extra care maybe iy ri n.ej:ed. In the first place, in bus . - gilaut look-out ought to be kept ■a: ii :ij e: unsound ear or half-made 'i- goes in with the pile that is to go La the crib. The pig pen is the better place rah such material. One unsound ear may, i, often does, damage a bushel of sound cora. Next, wherever you are going to put corn keep, put coal or gas tar about the prem s pretty liberally at first.

Whether in stacks or under ' arracks," lay the bundles with the tops innard, and inclined slightly upward, so that rain and thawing snow will all be carried off. MICK IS ORCHARDS.—A corrrespondent of '.be Co. Gent., having an orchard of pears and peaches which were injured by mice bark ing the trees last winter, and knowing no sure remedy, asks if real tar is a sure preventive. •ad positive!/ oot iajuriooi. To this inquiry the editor replies : If the orchard* contain some grass and weeds, which is probable, the remedy is to keep them clean and well eul ti, a ted. In addition to this, make a small smooth mound of earth ten inches or a foot high, late in autumn, around each tree. As mice never attend smooth, compact earth uuder snow in winter, the tree will be com pletely and effectually protected. These mounds may be leveled again in spring. If the soil is mellow, one man will go over several hundred trees in a day. Be careful not to make the blunder sometimes commit ted of throwing up chunks of earth, turf, straw, wesds, Ac., to form these mounds — which only invite the mice to bury in tbe interstices, and greatly increase the mischief. tumorous.

WHY were tbey not hungry in the Ark? Be cause they had "Ham aboard. "YOURS is a very hard case," as the monk, ey said to the oyster. To Dersevere in one's duty, and to be silent is tbe best answer to calumny. MART a fool who has had sense enough to get a good wife, lacks wit to know it.

Is a hardware dealer a defaulter if he sells his customers iron and bolts ? "OH, for a thousand tongues!" as a boy remarked, when inside a molasses hogshead. JOSH BII.LISG3 says, "Give the devil his due," but be careful there ain't much due him. A young woman in lowa tried to kindle a fire with gunpowder, and made an item of herself. A young lady desires to know if "Eight Hour Bills" are tbe same as Sweet Williams. ADAM was the only man that never tanta lized his wife about "the way mother used to cook."

As editor asks his subscribers to pay him that he may play the same joke on his credi tors. JOHS SMITH says he bad a "cold in the lumber regions on account of having bis head shingled." MR. SNOOKS says the reason he does not marry is, that his house is not large enough to contain the consequences. A husband, on being told the other even ing that his wife had lost her temper replied that he was glad of it, for it was a very bad one. WHAT is that animal which has the head of a cat, the tail of a cat, and the ways of a cat, aad yet which isn't a cat? A kitten. A CARPEXTER took a holliday and went to Mirgrate. When he returned home, his friends asked him whut he saw. "Why," he replied, "I saw the sea, and now I see the saw." "You have lost some of your best friends, I see," said a traveller to a negro he had met on the road. "Yes, massa.' "Was it a near or distant relative?" "Well, purty distant— bout twenty four mile," was the reply. THE fellow who undertook to get a free pass on the plea that he was a railroad man, is found to have spoken the truth, he was a rail road man, but a fellow bad bold of each end of the rail when he rode. A CHAP went to a pork house to bay some pork on credit. First he bargained for a lot of hog's ear; next, the cleik seeming willing to trust, be bought a hog's head; then growing bold, he said: "I believe I will take that bam." No you won't," replied the clerk, "you are head in ears in debt now." IK order to get an enemy, lend a man a •mall sum of money for a day. Call upon bim in a week tor it. Wait two months.

NEAREST THE FlßE.—During the sitting of & court in Connecticut, not long ago, on a very cold evening, a crowd of lawyers had collected round the open fire that blazed cheerfully on the heart in the bar-room, when a traveller entered benumbed with cold; but no one moved to give him room to warm his shins, so he leaned against- the wall in the back part of the room. Presintly a smart young limb of the la'w addressed him, and the following dialogue took place: "You look like a traveller." "Wall, I suppose I am; I come all the way from Wisconsin afoot at any rate." From Wisconsin ? What a distance to come on a pair of legs !" "Wal, I done it, ennyhow." "Did you ever pass through hell in any of your travels?" "Yes, sir, I've been through the outskirts.' "I thought likely. Well, what are the manners and customs there? Some of us would like to know." "Oh ! you'll fird them much the same as in this place. The lawyers sit nearest the fire." THERE is good in everything—great good often in the commonest of things had we bat eyes to sec it. We overlook it because it is common Primal. "y^ r HY ENDURE A LIVING DEATH? The confirmed dyspeptic may almost say with St. Peter, "I die daily." The object of this arti cle is not to remind him of his pangs, but to show him how to banish them forever. The means of immediate and permanent relief are proffered him in HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS, And it is for bira to say whether he will continue to endure a living death, or to put himself in a position to render life enjoyable. LIVING ADVERTISEMENTS Of the efficacy of this matchless vegetable stom achic are to be found in every city and town in tbe United States—healthy men and women res cued from torture by its use. and eager to fcfear testimony to its virtues. It diffets .rom any other bitters in existence, in this especial particular—it is not alcoholic. For such eonstitntions and systems as require for their iDvignratlon a diffusive stimulant, HOOFLAND'S GERMAN TONIC Has been provided—a preparation in which the solid extracts of the finest restoratives of the vc j etable kingdom are held in solution by a spiritu ous agent, purged of all deleterious constituents. The patient, in choosing between these two great antidotes, should be guided by his own condition. If in a very low state, from debility, the Tonic should be bis selection; but in cases where the emergency is not so pressing, the Bittors is the specific required. Thousands find infinite bene fit from taking each in turn. There is no phase of indigestion, Biliousness, Nervous Disease, or Physical Prostration, to which they are not adap ted, and in which, singly or combined, they will not effect a cure.
