Salt on Wheat.
Inquiries are often made as to the utility
and advantages of the application of salt
to wheat land. As bearing upon this
question The Rural New Yorker refers to
the following experiments tried in differ
ent localities
Last spring Mr. Joshua Knight, of Ogle
county, Illinois, sewed thirteen barrels of
of salt on twenty acres seeded to wheat.
and left a strip in the middle of the piece
without salt. The ground on which he
sowed the salt produced over eighteen
bushels of good spring wheat per acre,
while that on which there was no salt was
hardly worth cutting—the wheat being
badly shrunken, injured by rust, chinch.
bugs, etc.
I consider this a fair test, and it has
never before been published, though I
deem it of sufficient importance to report
it to the Department of Agriculture. A
similar experiment was tried in lowa la-t
spring and the result was published in the
lowa City Republican as follows :
‘'ll. G. Coe, of Cedar county, tried the
experiment of spreading three bushels of
salt broadcast over two acres of wheat field.
The yield was forty bushels per acre, while
the rest of the field gave only nine and a
half bushels per acre. The straw was
bright, not being injured by rust, as the
wheat alongside of it was, and it, stood six
inches higher!'
The following from the Montreal Ga
zette is apropos, as it gives the results of
valuable scientific experiments of the effect
of salt on Wheat :
"Iu an interesting series of experiments
recently made on the farm of the Royal
AgrAtiltssil Society of England, the
taanaisia value of salt was unmistakably
indicated. An acre of wheat dressed with
300 pop:la of 'own - mon salt yielded thirty
nine Itisirl! of grain, with a proportionate
amonut of straw ; while an adjoining acre,
left unmannred, produced only twenty
nine blebels per acre , with the straw im
perfectly developed. The entire cost of
the crop is not stated, but this experiment
shows that the additional ten bushels re
sulting from the salt were produced at a
cost of 30 cents each. In another case a
piece or ground intended for wheat was
plowed the preceding fall, and again in
May, when it was sowed with salt, and
afterwards plowed before seeding. On the
Ist and 2d of September wheat was sown
at the. to of two bushels to the acre
The ere/ when harvested, yielded, accord
ing to—the estimate of the owner, Mr.
Joha Pard o not less than forty bushels of
grain to the acre, with a luxuriant growth
of straw. From these and many similar
cases the inference seems to be that salt is
a specific for the wheat crop, imparting
solidity to the grain and firmness to the
straw. But it must not be concluded that
equally good results will always follow the
application of salt."
Fertilizers on Wheat.
Mr. W. W. Reed, of Erie Penn., states
in local- paper the results of some recent
etperimenta by him the past season with
different fertilizers on a field of about 14t
acres sown in Lancaster red wheat in the
fall of 1877. The field was divided into
six sections, five a little over two acres
each, and one about four acres—the las t
alone being without fertilizers, with the
exception of a little lime, while on the
other five were respectively applied the
following :
No. Fertilizer. Cost per acre. Yield per acre.
1 Salt, I barrel per acre.- sl.oo 29-6 bush.
2 Gtllllllo, 400 IN per acre 4.60 29-3 bush.
3 Phosphate, 810 Ibrper acre 7.28 37-5 bush.
4 Bone duet, 500 foe per acre 5.18 37-7 bush.
6 Ground lime, 800 Ihe pr acre 1.20 36-7 bush.
6. No fertiliser l4-3 bush.
These yields are by thresher's measure,
and as the wheat weighs 65 pounds per
bushel, are less than the actual quantity.
Mr. Reed says : This ground was care
fall; measured and staked off, and the
different sections harvested and threshed
separately, and every precaution taken to
secure accurate results. The field is a
clay soil mixed with some gravel, and has
been thoroughly underdrained. It was
sown to barley the spring before the wheat
was sown, 'and yielded 18 bushels per acre.
Before the wheat was harvested the sea
tions on whieh salt and guano were used
looked equally as well as those sections
treated with phosphate, bone dust and
ground limestone, and if they had not
been threshed separately, it would not have
been possible from the appearance of the
wheat to determine which was the best.
This fact has convinced me that the enly
way to arrive at accurate results is to
thresh separately, as in this case sections
yielding 37 bushels to the acre looked no
better than those yield 29 bushels per acre.
I think it is not improbable that fertilizers
have been condemned ad useless, in many
cases, when, if the grain had been threshed
separately, they would have shown favors..
ble results. In this case the ground lime
stone proved to be the most economical
fertilizer, showing a profit over bone dust
of $1.96 per acre, over phosphate of $4.28
per acre, over guano of $9 70 per acre, and
over salt of $5.90 per acre. I am using
the ground limestone on about 70 acres of
wheat this fall, and hope I may not have
occasion to change the opinion formed
from the foregoing tests, that in propor
tion to the cost it is the best fertilizer for
wheat, The field on which the above
testa were made is again sown to wheat,
with a uniform dressing of 100 pounds of
ground limestone to the acre, and will be
again harvested and threshed separately,
to ascertain the yield of the different sec
tions of the second year."
THE farmer who wishes to avoid an ex
oess of labor, with unprofitable result, will
not spread a small quantity of manure over
a large surface of poor land, but will only
plow as much as he can highly manure,
when his income will be as large and his
labor nearly one-half saved.

Come Inside
Recently, in illustrating the theme, "A
.ran in Christ," Mr. Spurgeon told a story
that is worth repeating. He said : Some
Christians remind me of the little boys
who go to bathe; all frightened and shiv
ing, they enter the water just a little—
up to their ankles they wade and shiver
again. But the man who is really in
Christ is like the practiced swimmer who
plunges into the stream head first, and
finds water to swim in. He never shivers.
ft braces him. He rejoices in it. It has
become his element. This is the man who
understands the happiness of religion in a
manner far beyond the conception of the
half and half professor who has only re
ligion enough to make him miserable. I
sometimes illustrate this by a quaint Amer
ican story. An American gentleman said
to a friend, "I wish you would come down
to my garden and taste my apples." He
asked him about a dozen times, but the
friend did not come, and at last the fruit
grower said, •"I suppose you think my ap
pies are good for nothing, so you won't
come and try them." "Well, to tell the
truth," said the friend, "I have tasted
them. As I went along the road I picked
up one that fell over the wall, and I never
tasted anything so sour in all my life ; and
I do not particularly wish to have any
more of your fruit." "0," said the owner
of the garden, "I thought it must be 83.
Those apples around the outside are for
the special benefit of the boys. I went
fifty miles to secure the sourest sorts to
plant all around the orchard, so the boys
might have given them up as not worth
stealing; but if you will come inside, you
will find that we grow a very different
quality there, sweet as honey." Now, you
will find that on the outskirts of religion
there are a number of "Thou shalt riots,'
and "Thou shalts,", and convictions and
alarms ; but these are only the bitter fruits
which this wondrous Eden is guarded
from thieving hypocrites. If you can pass
by the exterior bitters, and give yourself
right up to Christ and live for Him, your
peace shall be as the waves of the sea; and
you shall find that the fruits of "this ap
pie tree among the trees of the woods" are
the most delicious fruit that can be en
joyed this side of our eternal home.
True Thrift.
Some of those who are emphatic in their
recommendations of thrift, as a wise pro
vision against want and distress, are them
selves lacking in that more important
form of thrift which consists in "re
deeming the time." The . "rich fool"
mentioned by our Lord, in the parable re
corded by St. Luke, was a thrifty man,
so far as his worldly interests are con
cerned. He had made a timely and
abundant provision for future years. And,
so far, he was right. But then he had
neglected the chief thrift of all. He
made no provision for the long hereafter.
He was an absolute pauper as to practica
ble recourse to God for the salvation of
his soul. He bad looked after his body,
as if he were merely a brute animal. But
he was blindly ignorant as to the future
of his spiritual being. He bad made no
effort to be "rich towards God" (the only
abiding riches) rich in the habits of hu
mility and prayer and faith, rich in the
love of Christ, rich in the communion of
the Holy Spirit. rich in the knowledge of
the Holy - Scriptures. As to these, the
true riches, he was a destitute pauper at
death. Hence he is known universally
by the name of Rich Fool. And, as such,
be still has a vast posterity. For many
of the thrifty ones as to this life are ut
terly improvident for eternity. This is
gross folly. It is as if' a steamer should
start on a voyage round the world with
only a supply of food and fuel to last her
crew for one day. Even so, that is not
true thrift which cares for the brief space
remaining of this life only, and neglects
to make provision for the infinite period
of life to come. Yet God has given abun
dant promise of reward for all such efforts.
As it is written, "Whatsoever good things
any man doeth, the same shall he receive
of the Lord." And God repays with
most manifold additions What earthly
investments are so reliable ? Yet, per
sonal advantage, great as it may be. is
quite an inferior consideration, when cow
pared with the infinite claims of Christ's
love upon the grateful devotion of his
pecple.—London Record
Fashionable Foolishness.
There is no modern fashionable notion
quite so absurd as the generally received
idea that to be beautiful and attractive a
woman must possess a wan, spirituelle face
and a figure of sylph like proportions—a
fragility in nine cases out of ten the result
f disease By many fashionable belies it
is considered a special compliment to be
spoken of as frail and delicate. Tbey for
get that the naturally delicate face and
petite figure are very different from the
pale and disease stricken faces that meets
us in the city thoroughfares, look out from
the luxuriant carriages of wealth and
glide languidly through our erowded
drawing-rooms. If disease were unfashion
able, as it ought to be, not a lady in the
land but would take every possible precau
tion to secure the fresh, blooming face and
well-rounded figure that only health can
give. Ladies should remember that much
as gentlemen may profess to admire the
face and form paled and emanciated by
disease, when they choose a wife they pre
fer a blooming, healthful, buoyant spirited
woman. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion is the acknowledged standard remedy
for female diseases and weaknesses. It
has the two-fold advantage of curing the
local disease and imparting a vigorous tone
to the whole system. It is sold by drug
gists.
IDEAS go booming through the world
louder than cannon Thoughts are
mightier than armies. Principles have
achieved more victories than horsemen or
chariots—Paxton.
I THINK the first virtue is to restrain
the tongue; he approaches nearest to the
gods who knows how to be silent, even
though he is in the right.—Cato.
WHEREVER you go, endeavor to carry
with you a sense of God's presence, his
holiness, his love; it will preserve you
from a thousand snares.
