Valuable Hints VTema Responsible Authority
The Ouieb Crep.
In the temperate parts of Europe and
the northern part of the United States
these who wisa te raise onions have only
te sew them early in spring, and get the
same season bulbs from three te four inch
es across. Iu the Middle states this can
not be done. The seed sewn in spriuj
gives plants which mature early in sum
mer producing sets about the size of an
outdoor grape, which have te be put out
again the next season te make piarketable
onions. This double labor and longtime
spent en the crop, will always prevent it
from being a very profitable ene in these
latitudes.
In these parts of the country, however,
where they de well, it is surprising what
crops they yield in one season, and what a
' pile " of money they bring. In Connec
ticut mere profits have been made from an
aero of onions than perhaps from any garden
crop ever raised. Of late years, however ;
there has been mere risk, owing te "insect
plagues," new in the leaves, and new in
the maturing roots, till the result lias been
quite precarious in some districts. We note
that they have the same trouble in some
parts of Europe as wc have, though there
as here, there are yet wonderful crops pro
duced. A statement; before us gives a
crop in England te yield thirtv tens te the
ac,re, and brought iu at the low figures of
that country 31,000 iter acre. The bulbs
were mostly ene pound weight, and mauy
much mere. But we knew tli.it there are
always exceptional crops of everything.
One of our most popular wits has tried te
make himself famous by asserting that in
the "onion there is strength.'' It is ratlicr
a weak joke for a strong man, but as ap
plied te a case of profit like this, there 14
financial strength in it, aud 110 joke.
In regard te onion culture it has been
noted by the best growers that few crops
like deep soil better than the onion ; but
yet they de net like it very loose It ncedi
te He seme time after digging se as te get
compact. It is also found that asltcs is
an excellent manure, but theie is nothing
perhaps equal te a top-dressing el'iicu-ma-nurc.
Fresh stable-manure is ene of th
worst fertilizers making a rank growth of
top with but a small bulb comparatively.
In gardens generally no mauuie is put 011
the onion ground the same season of plant
ing ; but a piece of ground is selected which
has been heavily manured for seme ether
crop the season previous. Generally they
go iu after potatoes or celery, where an cx cx
tensive crop is desired.
The Hay Crep.
These who live near populous ecu ties
have always a great advantage ever these
at a distance, in the comparative ease with
which they cau dispose of bulky articles
A man who has a pound of geld dust te
sell could get it te the Philadelphia market
from the Recky mountains at almost the
same percentage of cost as another would
from North Carolina. There would he
very little difference in the profit te each
iu either case. Net se with a crop of po
tatoes. The Colerado farmer would net
stand the shadow of a chance in Philadel
phia with a New Jcrscyman. Transperta
tien would eat the whole thing up. Se we
find the vegetable gardening generally
flourishes best near large cities,
and the mero bulky articles of farm
produce arc generally these which find the
most favor. Of these in the Pliila
phia market, the hay crop is the most sub
stantial. We doubt whether within a cir
cuit of fifty miles from Philadelphia there
is any ether crop which as a rule pays bet
ter. Yet it is singular that se profitable a
crop docs net receive mere attention from
progressive farmers. Te bu mho enough
of "hay" is brought in te supply the gen
eral want, but if any one drives through
the district wc have referred te in the
growing season, or even stands en the
reads leading te the city and notes the
stuff which gees under the name, he will
surely see that there is an iiniiich.se field
for improvement in judicious gnu:s cul
ture. Still, we must admit that theie is
from year te year mero or "less improve
ment. Seme years age wc suggested that our
agricultural societies might venture te
take oil' a few dollars from the heavy pre
miums for race horses aud devote some
little te encouraging the growth of hay ;
but we have seen no movement in that di
rection yet. Still it should be done. Ne
better agricultural encouragement, could
be offered than premiums for geed, clean
hay. with wcll-autlieiiticated allkl.tvils as
te the quantity yielded per jicic. In the
absence of any such encouragement our
farmers would de well te turn their indi
vidual attention te it. What is wanted hi
some system by which pine grass can Ik:
raised grass free from weeds and wet th
less trash aud mere than this, the na
ture and wants of the "niss-nlant in vari
eus soils might be se .studied as easily te
bring up the crop te at least double that
which the land new yields in a majority of
cases.
We should like te sec this hay question
wcll-ventilatcd. Our agricultural papers
keep us pretty well-exercised ever the
wheat crop, Uie potato crop, the com
crop, and the cotton crop. Let us mice in
a while have a little attention te the hay
crop, and then we shall find hew much wc
have lest by its neglect.
