How to Avoid Midge m Wheat.
The red weevil (more commonly called
the midge) is a comparatively new-comer
in this latitude. It is one of the most de
structive enemies of the wheat crop where
it has existed for a length of time, and we
may expect that in the future it will not
spare us. We give the following practi
cal suggestions from the Rural New York
er, published at Rochester, in the midst of
a country which has suffered very much
by its depredations. Their timely applica
tion here may prove very useful:
The practical question which arises
among cultivators is, how can we best
evade the midge? Many conjectural and
some very plausible theories have hitherto
been promulgated on this point, few of
which have proved of any great value, be
ing either impracticable or too expensive.
The result of careful experiments, by some
of our most intelligent, observing and ex
perienced grain growers, however, proves
that there are three requisites to success
ful wheat culture in regious where the j
midge prevails, and these we will briefly
enumerate and discuss.
1. Varieties. —The first and most requi
site is to secure and sow seed of early and
hardy varieties—such as the Mediterrane- j
an, Golden Drop, Dayton, Ac. Those who
have grown these, and experimented with j
more recently introduced varieties, the past '
year, have been quite successful. The
Mediterranean has improved in quality of;
late years, and also in productiveness. In 1
some instances, last year, from thirty to ;
forty bushels per acre were produced in
this county, the grain being of excellent
quality, and we presume (from the fields
we have examined) that the yield and qual
ity will both prove good this season. The
Dayton variety was grown in Genesee coun- ;
ty last year, and gave good satisfaction—
escaping the midge and producing thirty
five bushels per acre. The success of the j
experiment induced several farmers of j
Wheatland, in this county, to procure
from Ohio) and sow seed of this variety j
hit fall, the product of which escaped the
midge and looked very promising two
weeks ago—when nearly ready for harvest
ing As we stated in the Rural of the
16th, (after examining about seventy acres
on the farm of lion. Klisha Harmon,) ' it
is a very fine v .riety—a white bald wheat,
with stiff straw, and if it acclimates as ;
well as the Mediterranean will prove inval
uable in this region.' Other new varie
ties have been tried on a small scale this '
year—such as the Boughton wheat, (seed
from Virginia,) by Mr. Wray, near this
city, and the Early .May,(seed from South
ern Illinois,) by Mr. James White of
Wayne county. We hope to hear soon
from these and other gentlemen who have
experimented with new varieties, and that
they will state the time of sowing, yield
per acre, quality, Ac., for the benefit of j
the public.
-. Time of Sow in j. —The general opin
ion among our farmers is that, whatever seed
is used, it must be sown curb/ to escape the '
mil!'je. Some are of the opinion that the
Souie wheat cun be successf ully 7 grown— j
us it baa been this past season—by sowing !
as early as the Ist of September on rich, '
dry and well-prepared soil. It should be i
remembered, however, that the present
season has been more favorable for wheat i
in this region thau any other for perhaps f
twenty years, and hence that the result
this year is not a safe index for ordinary j
seasons. Y\ e should prefer tlie early vari
eties, such as those named above, and I
sow as tody us possible after the 2bt'i of'
jlujust —say the last week in August or
first of September. This is the opinion of
our best farmers, and those who have ex- j
perimented most, been most successful in |
wheat culture, since the prevalence of the !
midge.
Sod and Culture. —Early vaiieties and
early sowing will prove of little avail with- j
out a rich dry wheat sail andr/ood culture, j
Ihe great cereal cannot be produced advan j
tageously on poor, wet land in any part of!
the Enioii, and especially in sections where j
the midge prevails. To produce wheat
abundantly and profitably 7 , the soil must I
contain the proper elements, and be in the !
right condition. In many ca.-os under- j
draining is of the utmost importance, even
on tarnis where it is not considered neces
sary. No one need expect to grow good !
wheat, and evade the midge, unless he has 1
a rich, warm and comparatively drv soil, i
and good culture, —but with these, and at
tendon to the requisites above named, vre
believe wheat can again be cultivated suc
cessfully in Western and Central New York !
and other midge-infested sections of the '
■country. — American Ajricullurist.

paHE reputation of these very celebrated veg-
Jl etable remedies is now unequalled by any
; others in this country or in Europe. They are
fully established as the most universal lamiiy
medicine now in use, and they will maintain
their pre-eminent renown by the intrinsic and
comprehensive virtues which acquired it. The
usual modes of puffery would be unworthy of
them and is unnecessary. Thousands and tens
of thousands of persons now living in perfectly
restored health can testify, as thousand- have
testified, to their prompt and decided efficacy
not only in all ordinary derangements of health,
from Impaired Digestive Functions.Costivene>s,
