ing, lest the ground should suffer from too

At the . first hoeing it is more convenient to

weir., the wet de, too, are more effectually

A 'Mall, flat hill does not injure the corn, but
we think no earth should be drawn up to the
plants at a second hoeing.
CERTAINTY OF THE CORN CROP -Ti i
said by some that this crop does not fail more
4lian one year in ten. We think it does not
more than one in twenty. For the last fifty
years we have not faded of raising a tolerable
crop olthis grain, where the land was in
order, excepting only in the years 1818 and
:1830. We can assert this of no other grain
that we raise.
Rye is subject to blast and to the, winter
frosts; wheat is subject to the same ; oats of
ten yield a eery slender crop on s large straw ;
barley is by no means a certain crop in New
England; and we know , of no grain to be
compared with Indian corn, as to the certainty
of a middling crop. We should think there
was' much less tisk in warranting this gram
than in warranting a crop of potatoes. It is
not hall* so liable to suffer in dry weather as
they are. '
these are grrat .advantages in favor of the
Indian corn, Or maize. M which our ancestor%
were totally ignorant before the settlem-mt of
this country; and. although William Cobliett
undertook to prove that it was a known' grain
in the days of the apostles. Irom the circum
stance of their rubbing the ears of corn in their
hands on the Sabbath, as they passed
through the fields, we think he may be said to
•• lie under a mistake," and that green maize
uncooked, is not so palatable food as green
wheat would be.
PROFITS Or THE CORN CROP.—Now, al
'though the corn crop is thus valuable, and one
with which we cannot dispense. still it does not
blow that it is profitable to raise large quantities
of it in New England. It is a cosily business
to rear and prepare for mai ket an acre of corn.
We hive made as accurate calculations on it as
we had power to make, and we think it not
easy to raise an acre of goon corn and prepare
it for market for a less sum than forty dollars,
calling the manure that the corn crop takes
fifteen dollars, or nee half the whole manure
pueon. We will call a good crop worth for
dollars—and this is sure more than' it will
for
t
the stover may be worth one too
of,,siock hay—nOt merchantable hay—ray eight
or ten,,dollars ; and this will be our net profit.
Now an-acre of land, within twenty miles of
Boston,, that will produce one ion of hay, will
give rue more net profit than the corn ; for hay
hie averaged fifteen dollars per ten 111 the barn
for - thirty-years past.and the after-feed will often
pay for the getting.
As the - expense of raising an acre of corn is
to considerable. we should never plant more
-land than .we can put-in high order. If we
.should average fifty or sixty bushels per acre
,we,would ‘ be well paid fur our trouble; but
.httnr, often we see less .than thirty on an acre !

hay Making.
%illy not adopt the same rule in regard to
the time of cutting clover and grass for hay.
that it is followed in cutting medicinal herbs?
The object in both cases is to secure the in
trinsic virtues of the plant. In coring herbs,
as all are acquainted with the subject admit,the
most proper time for cutting is when they' nie
in full bloom and it is also admitted that they
should he cured in the shade. because if expos-,
ed to the more direct influence of the sun arid
air, some of 'her valuable properties would be
evaporated.
We know there is some difference of opin.
inn in regard to the proper time for cutting
grass. The advocates for ripe hay contend
that there is more •• substance" in it, than that
which is cut while it is in blossom. And so
we suppose there is still more substance" in
scrub oak brush, and that it would go still far.
tiler in feeding (not supporting) stock. Ad-
Mining there is more substance in ripe grass.
is it a kind of substance which affords more
nourishment to animals ?
Plants at the time of flowering, contain
starch, gum and sugar; all of which are known
to nourish animals. In the formation of seed,
the steins and leaves are eshatised of these
substances, and the substance which remains is
chiefly woody fibre. But it may be said that
the composition of woody fibre, starch and
gum. are nearly the same. Admitted. but that
does not prove that animals are able to extract
nearly an equal amount of nourtsliment from
each. The composition of the diamond, the
hardest of all substances, may be said In be
similar to that of stiltcli, gum. &e..—carbon
being the chief element of all ; but the - dig , •t
-ive organs of animals would hardly be able to
convert the diamond into organized tissue.—
And though woody fibre, it eaten br cattle or
sheep, might •• stick by the ribs," we think
the rubs would not acquire from it much fat.
or the system much strength.
In solos parts of the country, animals are
actually fattened for market on hay alone.—
Thie may sound 'Strange to those who feed
their stock only with clover and timothy which
has gone to seed ; for we presume their stock
was never thus fattened.—But where this ob
ject is attained, the grass is cut while his quite
green, (not past bloom) and made and preserv
ed with great care. It is true there are coins
kinds of grasses,—as the "spire grass," or
•Kentucky blue grass," ( Pea pretensis) which
make but little bulk in seed-stocks, the chief
growth consisting of leaves which sprung from
the root. The greatest value in fodder would
be obtained in such cases by allowing the crop
to grow till it had allowed its greatest bulk.—
' Thta remark however by no means applies to
clover, or timothy, or the grasses usually cul
tivated for hay.
In making hay. we would expos.. it to the
sun and air no more than is required to elf ei
its preservation. for the same reason that is
above given in reference to curing herbs.—
Clover can be cured—indeed it is more con•
veniently cured—with but very little exposure
to the sun. If it is not wet, and is fairly wilt
ed, it may be put with forks, into cocks. which
will weigh, when dry, about fifty each, and
will effectually cure. Timothy. also. may he
cured in the same manlier. The finer grasses
when thrown into a body, pack more closely
and afford less space for the air; consequently
-they require to be more thin spread in making.
Excepting with clover, which we never
spread out of swath. our practice has been to
spread nut the swathi as evenly as possible. if
the burden is stout, as soon as the dew is off;
in the afternoon, take and cock. it before the
dew falls.
We prefer putting it in cocksationgh no more
than wilted, because the sweating it will there
undergo in the course of twelve hours, will
much facilitate the making, and if the grass is
coarse and hard, it will render it much more
soft. Besides, hay that h,s been well sweat
ed in cock, is not liable to ferment in the stack
Or mow.
Whether the hay which was mowed and
put in cocks on the first day Will make so that
it will do to go the barn nn the second day de
pends of course on the condition. and the state
of the 'weather. If all appearances indicate
that the hay can 'be made Sufficiently on the
second dair. (and Yepealed oliserrations only
can.tletermlne the degree of dryness which is
required, (open the cocks and - shake the hay
out lightly. thoroughly breaking all the locks
with the fork. But it should not' tie - spread
out later than three or, four, o'ckick m the'after•
noon. but should be put up again.. or :if dry
enough, put in the barn by this _time, legit it
contract moisture. If from the condition of
the hay or the appearances of the weather.
there is a probability that the hay cannot he
made enough in one day. let it remain undis
turbed till the weather is favorable.
1 here are one ur two other -considerations
in favor of early cutting which we omitted In
notice aliej:Ce. It is admitted bv_physiologists
