is nil advantage in so doing—the miow, ns if
melts, warliiug the seed in'o the ground. Un
less Ihe soil at.fi the vauthtr nre veiy dry,
however, there is little danger that the seed
will niit germinate. Tin* wheat plants afford
sufficient shade and moisture.
Last year, the weather wa> remarkably warm
early in the spring, followed by protracted mi.
and cold. Mm.li of the clover seed sown early
hail started, and the young phi :ts perished.—
To nvoid snch failure, some of oar best farmers
sow part of the seed say the fiiM wet k in April
and again aboat the 20; It. This is double
labor of sowing, hut it lessens the risk of fail
are ; and when the second <twing is crosswise
tlie lirst, it secures a morn even distribution of
the seed
It is well to sow a bushel of plasterper acre,
for the benefit, of the young clover piunls
Many good farmers in Western -N York
think it is better to sow tlie plaster on the
wheat at the time of sowing the clover, t! an
to sow it on the clover the next spring. Some
however, think the plaster has a tendency to
retard the ripening of the wheat ; and if this
is the case, of course the practice cat oi l> * n -
commended, as the liability to injury from the
midge is largely augmented by any dwlay in
the ripening processes. Whether piaster real
ly has this effect or not. we can not tell. In
Mr. I i iwes' experiments, alkaline salts in con
nection with ammonia had a tendency to in
crease the quantity of straw without an increase
of grain ; i e., alkalies and ammonia gave no
more grain, hut more s/rnir, than the same
quantity of ammonia without alkalies, it is
not improbable that plaster might have the
same effect.
Since liie advent of the midge, and the de
creased quantity of land sown to wheat, clover
is sown more extensively with spring grains.
Barley is undoubtedly the best spring crop for
this purpose. In England, nearly ail the clover
is sown with barley. The land is made as line
and mellow as possible, and the clover seed is
generally sown after the barley has been har
rowed in and the work completed, except rul
ling, which is done after the barley is up. If
the land is at all cloddy, it is better to roll be-,
fore the clover is sown. There is much more
(dover seed lost from burying it too deep than
from not covering it at all. Several years ago,
we recollect seeing the results of some careful
experiments, made by Mr. Stkruvu, of Scot
land, on sowing clover seed at different depths.
More seals germinated when covered very
slightly (if we recollect aright, the eighth of
an inch,) than at any greater depth—the de
crease being in proportion to the depth. Tlio.-e
sown on the surface gave a less favorable rc- j
suit than those slightly covered, but better than
any sown at a greater depth ; — i e., those cov
ered the eighth of an inch did best ; those sown
on the surface, nearly as well ; those covered
one-fourth of an inch, not quite -o well as those
on the surface ; those covered half an inch,
still worse ; and so on, till at two inches they
did not germinate at all.
As a general rule, clover does not succeed !
so well sown with oats as with barley, spring '•
wheat, or rye, though we have known several
instances where a good set of clover has been
obtained when seeded with oats. Willi this j
crop, it would undoubtedly lie safer to sow a j
little more seed.
For pasture, and wlten it is intended to plow
up the land at the end of one or two years, we
should sow nothing hot clover. From four to
six quarts, or from eight to twelve pounds, is
the nsual quantity in such cases. For mowing
six pounds of medium clover, and four and a
half pounds of timothy seed, is the nsual quan
tity, varying less or more according to the con
dition of the soil. We are in favor of thick 1
seeding, and would much rather sow more than
less. English farmers, as a rule, sow half as
much again clover and grass seeds per acre ns
we do and a greater variety. They find theirac
count in so doing. We have known experienc
ed English farmers sow as much ns 20 lbs. per
acre of red clover, trefoil, ami white Dutch, in
addition to rye-grass. Our land is so well ad
apted to clover and grass, that such thi, k s< ed
ing is unnecessary here ; but we are not sure if
it would not sometimes be advantageous to sow
more seed than we do.
There nre few implements more needed on
American farms than a light pair of harrows
for covering small seeds. The roller answers
the purpose to some extent ; but if the soil is ,
at all damp, and dry weather ensues, a hard
crust forms on the surface, through which it is
difficult for the seeds to penetrate. An imple
ment which should combine the operation of
roller and harrow, would be an improvement,
for this purpose, upon either. The late Mr.
Smith, of Dcnnsfon, invented an implement
which is designed to accomplish this result.—
It is called the web-h.n• roir. It consists of an
iron chain web, connected by discs or quoits
of iron which, lying obliquely upon their sides
when in operation, roll around, thus tearing
and abrading the surf ice of the ground, audi
grinding the smaller clods, so as to expose and
disturb the surface sufficiently to cover the
small seeds strewn upon it. It is by tiie rub
bing of the sides of the discs against the land,
as they revolve, that they are especially useful ;
more than hv the action of their edgi s, though
that is also efficient to some extent The price '
of this harrow in England is aboat $25, cover
ing 2.) square feet of ground. The common
brush-harrow—a framework of wood interlac
ed with brush—forms a good substitute for the
expensive implement of Mr. SMITH. It merely
scratches the surface, and so far gives the seeds
a very shallow covering : but it wants the j
weight which makes the web harrow to com
press as well as abrade the surface, both of
which conduce to its efficiency.
BARl.ki'.—Since the uncertainty of the wheat j
crop, the cultivation of barley is attracting
more attention. Our short, dry, hot summers,
arc not as well adapted fur barley as for wheat. I
Our best samples of wheat are heavier, finer,
drier, and more farinaceous than the English ;
while our barley is decidedly inferior to that,
grown in the cool, long summers of the British
Isles. Barley delights in a loose, warm.quick
soil. Its roots spread but little—not half as
far or deep as the roots of wheat. Heuce the
soil should be rich, ami as loose ns possible.
It is probably owing to this fact that super- |
phosphate ot lime (which seems to develop the
formation of roots) lias a better effect on bar
ley than ou wheat. A clayey soil will produce
good barley, if it can be made sufficiently light
and porous.

The Excelsior Churn!
Patented by SILAB HEWITT, July 11,1857.
THIS CHI UN is the result of years of experience by a
practical fanner, to produce a Churn that has all the
advantages of the old Dash Churn, and he a labor-saving
Machine. Me claim-for this Churn, tiud are prepared to
prove by aetnal demonstration, that it will produce more
butter—a letter quality--with less time and less labor -
than any other Churn iu market. It is perfectly simple
in its construction, not liable to get out of order, anil a
child can operate on it. Tt has been thoroughly tested by
several hundred farmers in Seneca and adjoining Counties,
and its merits fully established wherever introduced, and
is pronounced by all to le one of the greatest improve
. raents of the age.
tie" Die following extract from the Seneca Falls papers
of Mav lb;th, is a sample of what the " EXCELSIOR
CHCUN " has done, in competition with oWier Churns :
'• A trial between the Smith Churn, of Elgin, Illinois,
: (which took the first premium at the State Fair at Buffalo
last fall, and has taken the premium at all the Fairs where
jit has been exhibited) and the Excel-ior Ch irn.of this
village, touk place at Woodmansee's Hotel, the 20tti in>t.
i The cream was taken from the same vessel, after being
stirred up that it might be of the same temperature and
quality—one quart at a time—each Churn receiving two
gallons. The Excelsior Churn p oduced and gathered
the Rut tee hard and yellow in sue and a half minute.),
while the Smith Churn was 12 minute* in producing the
Butter, which was soft, white and oily : and Excelsior
; Churn produced Twelve Ounces more Butter than the
Smith Churn ! The Excelsior Churn then produced thir
teen ounces of good Butter from the Butter Milk of the
Churn, being more than half as much as they gift
from the cream! The Smith Churn could not produce
any Butter from the buttermilk of the Excelsior Churn.'
Trial of Churns —Report of the Committee.
At the trial between Smith's Churn, from Elgin,lllinois,
and Hewitt's Excelsior Churn. manufactured in this vil
lage, which took place at Woodmansee's Hotel, on Wed
nesday morning, the following was the result of the trial:
Hewit's Churn, 2J lbs.—Butter in OA minutes.
Smith's Churn, 14 lbs. Butter In 12 minutes.
About two gallons of Cream was put in each Churn.
The milk from Smith's Churn was then changed to Hew

Butter eonld he brought from the milk from the llewit
( 'hum, which was transferred to Smith's. The quality of
Butter from Hewit's Churn was much the best, being of
better color, and more solid.
A second trial, which was about one-third more cream
was put in the Hewit Churn than in the other, resulted
very nearly the same as above, Hewit's Churn being
shown to be greatly the superior.
