Agricultural
Harrow Ins Wheat In Spring.
Tho ndvnntago of harrowing wheat lands
thoroughly In the spring, as soon as the
ground becomes dry enough to provent tho
horses from sinking into It Is known to many
farmers who havo practiced it, bnt is un
known to the majority. Wheat is usually
sown in September upon well prepat ed land.
This land Is left then subject to all tho
storms of rain and snow, and tho dry weath
er the succeeding spring, until after tho
wheat Is harvested. In consequenco, tho
land becomes in May and Juno nearly as
hard as a meadow. At a Bcason of the year
when tho plants are In the greatest vigor of
growth, tho land is so hard as not to givo
one-half tho nourishment it would if kept
mellow by any process. Suppose, for in
stance, corn should bo planted In tho fall,
under similar conditions with wheat, and
that the winter did not injure it ; nnd that
it were left without cultivation of any sort
until harvested j it is evident that the yield
would be diminished over one-half; In fact,
tho yjeld would probably bo so light and
poor as to bo almost worthless.
Now, wheat, from many experiments in
its cultivation by hand in England, shows
as rreat sensitiveness to cultivation as corn j
the yield, by careful hand cultivation being
increased to CO, and, in some instances, 80
bushel per acre. Now, a thorough harrow
ing of wheat in tho spring, in a very Inex
pensive manner, performs the cultivation
nearly as well as when done by hand. If
tho cruat formed by tho winter snows and
spring rains is thoroughly broken, and the
ground to the depth of two or more inches
well pulverized tho effect upon the wheat is
almost like magic. It starts Into the most
vigerous growth, and in a few weeks has
nearly doubled in size the wheat not har
rowed. In pieces of wheat which havo
coino under the writer's observation, which
were harrowed in strips, that is, one strip not
harrowed at all, and the other strips on each
side thoroughly harrowed in tho early part
of June, the harrowed wheat stood fully ono
foot higher than the unharrowed at each
side, and in everyway was strikingly rank
er and more vigorous. Mr. Itobert J. Swau,
of Itoso Hill farm, Geneva N. Y., who has
heavy clay laud, says ho has harrowed his
wheat for fouryears with theThomas harrow
and finds the yield to be increasing fully ten
bushels per aero. Bryam Moultou, of Alex
ander, Genesee county, New York, harvest
ed from fifty acres 1,(300 bushels of wheat.
His neighbors only obtained about ten bush
el per acre. The only difference in land or
treatment was that Moultou'a wheat was
thoroughly harrowed with tho same imple
ment in the sprinc and his neighbors' was
not.
The effect produced by harrowing barley
and oats, after they have obtained a growth
of four or five inches is equally as marked.
I have observed many instances whero fully
twenty bushels per acre increase, in conse
quence of thorough harrowing, was obtain
ed. These facts and many others of similar
character show clearly tho great profit which
farmers may derive from a thorough cultiva
tion by narrowing of wheat; oats, barley and
other sown crops. A Cultivator in Country

Manuring to Destroy Weeds.
Suitable food for crops, says an English
Journal, enables them to conquer tho weeds,
In regard to clover, it was found that when
the land was wholly unmnnurcd, tho weeds
formed fifty-seven per cent, of tho entire
yield, but that the application of gypsum
reduced the proportion of weeds to 2 per
ceut. Nitrogenous manures had very slight
effect, nnd pho.-phatic manures but little
Wo must not from this, however,
consider gypsum as nn antidote to weeds in
general,sitice it is a spcclflo manure for clo
ver, and gives it n power to struggle success
fully with the weeds, and crowd tliem out.
It is commonly observed that the first ef
fect of large quantities of barnyard manure
is to make the weeds grow more vigor'
ously. This is partly because the manure is
usually filled with weed seeds, and also be
causa the increase in fertility encourages
seeds to sprout, which, with poorer boil,
would havo remained dormant. The light,
warm and rich soil will sprout weed seeds to
a greater depth than that which is heavy,
cold and poor.
On the other hand, where grain crops are
sown, multitudes of these weeds are smoth
ered and destroyed by the stronger growth
of the grain. Almost all annual weed
start from seeds as tiny and feeble as turnip
or onions, and the first appearance of the
weed is most insignificant. On the other
hand wheat, corn, oats and barley havo a
rain of considerable substance, and the
blade and root correspondingly vigorous
not only outgrowing tho weed, but enabling
the farmer to cultivate his sown or drilled
crops with little injury to the grain, but com
pleto destruction to tho weeds. A light
drag passed over drilled oaU or barley, just
as the grain is well up, will hardly disturb
a singlo spoar, but will bury and tip-root
millions of tiny weeds. In this way a field
may be kept clean, and, where spring grain
is to be followed by wheat, tho labor of fit-
tine tho stubblo is much lessened. Moore't
Jlural.
What Constitutes A Good Fertilizer.
No ordinary plant can thrive without a
sufficient supply of each of a number of Bub-
stances needed for its food. With an abun
dr nee of all these, in forms in whisli the
plant can uo them, and witli other circum
stances favorable, the plant will flourWi and
the yield will be largo. Hut if the availa
ble supply of any one of them be too small
n light yield is inevitable. Every ordinary
soil contains all the ingredients of plant food
In "worn out ' soils the available supply of
0ne or more of these is generally insnfli
cieut,
Fertilizers supply the plant with food
which th0 soil lacks. Uarnyard manure not
only does this, but also improves the soil as
olivine nlaco for plants.
(-"Iphato of llme)are necessary as plant food
but, as fertilizers, they aro chiefly valuable
In rendcrine other plant food available to
