a&ricuitttral, SOWING R-VE. The earlier this gram is gotten in the better prospect will there be of it* succeed jng well. In most instances this grain is allotted to light thin soils, in which neither the elements of mineral or nutritive man ures exist, and then, because the yields are li" lit, the grain is condemned, when in tact ihe fault lies in the sower—lies in the fact that he had not provided it anything to for it is a truth, that rye, like every thing else that grows,requires nourishment. We are aware, and readily admit the fact that light lands suit rye best, but then, this lightness of soil has regard to its texture alone, and does not imply that the soil also shall bo poverty stricken —exhausted and worn out. Rye, to be sere, requires less fertility in the soil than wheat, but still, it is necessary that there shall be some thing in the earth besides sand wherever it may be grown. In its straw, there is a very large per centum of sihcia, but belore that can enter therein, the sand must be dissol ved by potash, and reduced to a consistence to be taken up by the roots of the rye plants. If, therefore, the field on which r> e is to be sown, lias been long in culture without having been treated to ashes, or lime, the conclusion is a reasonable one, that its mineral constituents have been near ly exhausted, and it is equally reasonable to conclude, that they should be resupplied. How this ts to be done, is a question of sotr.e moment. A moderate dressing of cow dung would furnish nearly, if not all, that rye requires, but as there are many who have not that manure to give, or not perhaps the time to haul it out and spread it, we will suggest, that a compost, formed in the proportion to the acre, of 5 bushels cf lime, 5 bushels of ashes, 1 bushel of salt, and 1 of plaster, if thoroughly mixed together and applied to even thin poor land would ensure a good crop of rye and carry a clover crop alter it. The compost above spoken of, is, of course, to be applied to the surface and harrowed in with the grain when seeded. And as we do not wish to ba misunderstood, we will here remark, that we do not prescribe it is an applica tion calculated lor a permanent improve ment of poor soil, but as ensurer of a crop of rye and the setting of clover. The clo ver once set, should, to carry it prosper ously through its allotted time, be treated to a bushel of plaster also. Preparation of the ground. Plough deep, turn the furrows flat, and harrow thoroughly. Quantity of seed per acre■ —The qucn lily of seed usually sown, per acre, ts 4 pecks; vre preler to sow 5 pecks. Preparation of the seed. — He usually soaked it from 12 to 24 hours in salt btine made strong enough to float an egg. and as we were abuut to sow diaineu otfthe brine, and mixed ashes, lime or plaster with the seed, so as to divide and reader them easy of distribution. Covering the seed. —This may be done either with the plough, cultivator or har row—our method was to use the plough, and cover the seed from 2 to iJ inches, then harrow, and roll. Whatever implement may be used, the work should be comple ted with the roller. If the rye should prove luxuriant and rank, it should be grazed in earlv spring with sheep and calves, but not with heavy stock. — Am. Farmer. VIEWS OF A PRACTICAL FARMER. Raising Winter Grain. — Phis commu nication is intended for young farmers on ly, that commence business; and I should advise them not to experiment on too large a scale on what the theorists call deep ploughing, unless they have plenty of capital to work upon—as some writers re commend ploughing from twelve to four .een inches deep. I would go a consider able distance to see the plough and team that would plough that deep. My prac tice for seventeen years, in breaking up sod, fallow ground, or oats stubble, for seeding, is to plough from six to e;ght in chea, which I consider deep ploughing.— If a coat of lime is intended, put on the Ume, if a heavy soil, at the rate of fifty bushels per acre; as eoon as the ploughing is finished give it thorough harrowing, then put on the manure and spread it in as even a manner as practicable; then plough again about four inches deep, in lands of about five yaid3 wide. My reason lor not ploughing the manure in deeper, is that the sun and atmosphere will act more upon it, and it will come mure in contact with the sun, and will act more as a stimulant to the voung plunt, which is of very great im portance. Seed front tenth to the fifteenth of Sep tember, for rye about one bushel and a peck per acre, and wheat one bushel and three pecks per acre, to be harrowed in or put in with lite cultivator—the latter most preferable, as it leaves the ground in bet ter condition i{ intended to he laid down in timothy. If the land is intended for timo thy. sow the seed immediately after the grain is harrowed in,at about four quarts per acre; if sown while the grouud is fiesh, it will take much better than if sown in the spring. Clover seed should be sown about the mid die of March, if the weather will permit— about from three to four quarts per acre. IIOVEN OR BLOATED CATTLE. Tb is U a. disease that cattle are liable to el any season of tho year, but more par ticulaily w!i u in clover pasture of a lux uriant growth. They will sometimes get it if ted on apples, potatoes, or new corn The best lemeuv in such cases that J have been successful with, is lar und oil. Give them immediately some lar, from a gill tr half a pint. Let a person hold the cow hy the hnr.i with oris hand, and by the un der jaw or nostril with the other; take s euiooth piece of a shingle or board, aur jujt the tar on the loot of the tongue in smal quantities, and let her swallow it. (Jive her about a pint of common oil, or melted lard. Put a straw band in her mouth with a little tar on it—tie it round above her horns, and she will be well in twenty or thirty minutes. Let her have very mod erate exercise. If a cow breaks off from her milk, give her a table-spoonful of saltpetre two or three times a week; have her well curried and rubbed, especially along the back; then fake spirits of turpentine one part, and two part 9 spermaceti or nealsfoot oil, and bathe her along the hack bone, from the shoulder blade to the root of the tail, and put a small quantity 011 her head between the horn#. She should bo rubbed frequently. If this is attended to in time, there will be no necessity for the barbarous practice of boring the horns, which is generally worse than the disease. If the udder should be swollen, rub it with hogs lard freely, and keep her milked clean. This will allay the fever, and the cow will soon get well. WHEAT ON PRAIRIE LANDS.—Some very successful experiments have been made this year and last, in the central and northern part 9 of Illinois, in the cropping of wheat on new prairie lands. Near New Carthage, in 1647, Mr. A. Hamilton broke 100 acres of new prairie, finishing about the Ist of August. This he put in wheat, completing the sowing by the 15th of September. Prom this 160 acre tract he cut and secured 2300 bushels of good wheat, losing enough he thinks, through inability to harvest it in season, to have made the whole average 30 bush els to the acre. Prom this crop he is real izing the present season, Sißoo. The breaking of the ground cost him 51.50 per acre, or 8150 for the whole, and the inclo sing of it $160; being at the rate of sls per thousand for 10,000 rails, aud SI per thousand for laying the fence.

Pennock's Patent SEED AND SRAXIT PLANTER, j FOR PLANTING WHEAT, RYE, BARLEY, ■LVDIAN CORN, OATS, BEANS, PEAS, RUTA BAGAS, TURNIPS, S,-c. PIIHIS Machine operates equally well on JL all kinds of land, and is not injured by coming in contact with rocks, roots, &c. It will plant point rows, and ail irregular shaped fields, without sowing any pari twice over, j With a saving ot from 10 to 15 percent, in labor, it will, with ease tor two horses, plant from 10 to 12 acres per day of wheat, oats, barley, and other small grains; and with one man and horse, it will readily plant from 10 to 20 acres per day ot Indian corn, beans, peas, rutabagas, tec. It will save from 2 to 3 pecks ot seed per acre, and yield irony 10 to 20 per cent, more than the broad cast seeding, by distributing the grain uniformly at any desired depth, and leaving a ridge of earth between the rows. The roots of the young plant are protected during the winter by the action of the frost ar.d rain mouldering the earth upon them, in stead of being thrown cut md ex posed as in broad cast. On this account the stalk is stronger and less subject to mildew, and is not so liable to injury by the fly. The farmer is frequently prevented by rain from harrowing in his grain aiter it is sown, which harrowing is needless in seeding with this machine as it completes the work at once.
