PLANTING BROOM OORN.
We have received a series of articles 011
the cultivation of Broom corn, and making
brooms, from Abram Stockes, an experi
enced broom-maker, of Ulster Co., X. Y.;
and we give his mode of preparing the soil
and planting the seed. He says : " Select i
a dry, rich, deep loam, nearly free from
sand, gravel and stones, and plow it deep
—the deeper the better. A red clover, or !
timothy sod is best; because it will usually
be free from weeds. Pulverize the surface
as deep as practicable with a cultivator ;
or it may be plowed the second time, by
using a plow with a sharp point, sharp,
coulter, and guage wheel to regulate the
depth. In this way it can be pulverized
more tho-oughly than with a cultivator.
Before plowing the second time, however,
the ground should be allowed to settle after
a heavy rain has fallen ; or the sods may
be pressed down with a roller. Plow the
second time the same way as the first, run
ning the plow as deep as practicable, with- i
out turning up portious of the sod. Har
row it thoroughly ; and mark the ground '
one way with a small plow for planting in
drills. It is better to have the rows run
north and south, as the sun will shine on
eacn side more uniformly.
I prefer the tall Broom corn, as it has
been well tested and approved. The dwarf
may succeed as well 011 some kinds of soil,
where it will not grow too slender,which is
a fault of this kind of corn. If brush be
too slender, the brooms bend too easily,and
wear out too soon. When brush grows in
the form of a pinicle of oats, it is worth
less. Such brush, however, is seldom pro
duced except on a thin soil of gravel, or
sand, with a clayey subsoil six or eight in
ches beneath the surface.
My manner of planting the seed is, to
carry it in a small pail, and drop about one
hundred kernels per rod (or about two in
ches apart). After dropping a few rows,
cover it with a harrow having 30 or 40
teeth, by driving the team one on each side
of the drill. If the harrow be not drawn
the second time over the ground, it will not
displace any of the seed. When planting
in this manner, the seed comes up well,
grows more uniformly, and makes better
brdsh than if planted in hills, as the stalks
are more evenly distributed over the ground.
In about twelve days, the young plants
will be about three inches high. Now is
the time to get the start of weeds by
working among it with a horse and plow.
For this purpose, the rear end of the mold
board should be broken off just back of the
share to prevent rolling the earth too far
away from the young plants. By turning
the earth from the drills, the weeds will be
subdued. In about ten days, it should be
plowed again, going twice a row. Then
the plants should be thinned so that there
will be about seventy per lineal rod. All
weeds growing among the plants should he
removed, so as to allow the sun to shine on
the Broom corn. In about ten days more,
it should be plowed again with a large
plow having a short, crooked mold board,
going four times between all the rows.—
Turn two furrows from the rows, and then
turn them toward the plants, working the
soil between the stems as much as practi
cable with the plow. lit ten days longer,
plow it again, going four times between
the rows, as just stated, always turning
the soil toward the corn the last time
through. I always perform most of the
work with the plow, and do as little with
the hand-hoe as possible."— American Agri
culturist.
CULTIVATION OF BUCKWHEAT.
When buckwheat is sowed in the spring,
or first part of summer, the hot weather
which occurs when it is in blossom, pre
vents perfect fructification. Consequently
there will be numerous clusters of kernels
that will be blasted. For this reason the
seed should be sowed, so that the hottest
weather will have passed, by the time the
buckwheat is in full bloom. Cool weather
or at least cool nights are quite as essen
tial to a good crop of buckwheat, as hot
days and nights at e for Indian corn. The
point to be aimed at in every locality is, to
defer sowing as long as possible and allow
it sufficient time to mature before an early
frost will destroy the crop. This period oc
curs at different times in different localities.
In the latitude of Central and Western
New York, the proper time for seeding is
about the first of July. We have known
buckwheat sowed as late as the lfith of
July, which produced a bountiful crop ;
but in that latitude there is a great risk on
account of the frost, if it is not sowed by
the 10th of July. Our most successful far
mers in this latitude, calculate to have
their buckwheat put in as soon as the fourth
of July ; and in some seasons, even when
sowed at that time, frost appears so early
in the fall as to almost destroy the entire
crop. In some localities it may be sowed
the latter part of July, and escape frost.
If the soil whefe it is sowed be well pul
verized so that it will vegetate immediately,
and if the grain is put in by the fourth of
July or even by the tenth, a bountiful crop
may be expected. When the ground is
plowed but once for a crop of buckwheat
where the soil is heavy, it is often so dry
aud hard, and breaks up ia such large
lumps and clods, that many farmers in
waiting for rain to moisten the soil previ
ous to plowing, are compelled to defer
seeding until it is too late. But if the soil
be plowed in the spring, it will not become
dry and hard by the time it is to be plowed
the second time, but will be moist aud mel
low]; and the grain will vegetate soon.
Every intelligent farmer who is located
on a heavy soil, that is apt to plow up
lumpy, understands the importance of plow
ing it when it is just moist enough ty turn
up mellow. Buckwheat can not be expec
ted to vegetate in time, and flourish luxur
iantly, and yield a remunerating crop when
the soil is a mass of dry lumps.— Americrn
Agriculturist.
MANAGEMENT OF BARN-YARD MANURE.
It is very often the case that manure is
allowed to accumulate and remain undis
turbed in the yard during the summer,after
which it is hauled to the field and applied
for winter grain. Treated thus, it rots but
little, but if forked over, it would decay
very rapidly. In some instances, corn I
stalks, straw, and stable manure are mixed |
together, by being spread evenly over the !
entire yard, and are pressed firmly together
by the constant tread of animals. Mr.
Isaac I'eck, an excellent farmer, of Fair
field Co., Conn., recently related to us his j
manner of preparing barn-yard manure for !
winter grain. His yard is constructed so
that no liquids flow from it, except some
times during very heavy rains, and this is j
conducted upon a field, and not to the brook
or river, llis corn stalks are fed out in the j
yard, where the large huts become min- j
gled with refuse straw and stable manure, j
During days in summer when laborers can
not work to advantage on the farm, they i
commence on one side of the yard and fork
the manure over, turning it clear to the
ground. If there is too much straw orcorn
stalks in one place, they are scattered over
a large surface, so as to mix different kinds
as thoroughly as possible. By forking it
over in this manner, the coarse portions
will be fined, and sufficiently decayed by
autumn to make it possible to spread it
evenly, and it will be in a far better condi
tion to benefit wheat, or any other winter
grain. Mr. Peck usually applies most of
his barn-yard manure to his winter grain,
and by this system he is able to raise good
crops of wheat where the soil was formerly
considered poorly adapted to that kind of
grain. We do not commend our friend's
way of treating corn stalks—that is, feed
ing them out whole on the ground in the
yard ; but thousands of very good farmers
will do so, though they lose about half the
value of the fodder. In regard to working
over the manure in the yard, however, his
practice is excellent. If he had muck at
hand, and could put over a good layer ofit,
or of sods, every time the manure was
worked over, it would greatly increase the
value of his manure crop.
MANAGEMENT OERED CLOVER FOR SEED.
When the chief object is to raise a crop
of seed, whether the clover is grazed or
mowed off, it ought always be done in the
month of June, in our latitude, and pre
vious to the full bloom. It is not practi
cable to raise a good burden of hay and a
crop of seed on the same ground in one
season ; nor can one expect a full yield of
seed if the clover be grazed too long. If
the large, or late kind of red clover be al
lowed to stand until it is in full bloom be
fore it is cut, there will be only a small
crop of seed. The most successful way of
managing this kind of red clover is, to pas
ture it until about the 15thor 20th of June;
in New-England, or New York, never later
that the 20th of the month. It has been
our practice to feed it down close just be
fore shutting the animals off altogether,and
if there was more clover than they could
graze off close to the ground in a few days,
the remainder was mowed, and usually
left where it grew. The object in mowing
off all (he stalks that the stock leave, is to
have all the clover start the second time
as evenly as possible, grow uniformly, and
all plants come to maturity at the same
time, which is very essential. The seed 011
the portions of the field where the first
growth has not been cut off, will come to
maturity several weeks before the greater
part of the crop is fit to cut. Consequently,
most of it will shell off and be lost before
the remainder can be secured. Many farm
ers, in their first attempts to raise the seed
of the large kind of red clover, obtain only
a small crop,simply because the first growth
was allowed to advance too far.
In growing a crop of seed of the early,
or small kind of red clover, the usual prac
tice is to make hay of the first growth,
though it is sometimes grazed off. Those
who raise the largest crop of seed, cut the
first time before it is in full bloom. They
find this essential and aim to cut when
about two-thirds of the heads are in blos
som. The stalks aud leaves will be very
green at this stage ; but every day it is
allowed to stand after this, tends to dimin
ish the quantity of seed of the succeeding
crop. Consequently, when a farmer thinks
best to allow the first crop of clover to
come nearer maturity, for the purpose of
having a greater burden of hay, he must
remember that lie will lose more in the yield
of seed than lie will gain in the quality and
quantity of hay afforded by the first growth
of the clover. It there be any weeds a
mong clover, they should all be cut close
to the ground, so that the clover will get
the start of them and effectually suppress
their growth.
HALTER-BREAKING YOUNG 00LT8.
Young colts, when their dams are used
in a harness, are frequently troublesome
about following, especially when traveling
on the highway, where they are liable to
meet other horses. It is common to see a
young eolt run directly away from its dam,
when on the road, and becoming bewilder
ed, no little trouble is required to bring it
back. To avoid all annoyance from this
source, make a soft halter suitable for the
colt's head, and hitch it to a strong fence,
or some other place, where it can not run
aroung a post and wind the rope up. It
may pull for several hours, but will soon
learn to stand. As soon as accustomed to
the halter, the colt may be taught to lead,
by placing the dam a few rods distant from
where it is hitched, and leading it toward
her. It will be impossible to lead a colt
away from its dam, until it has become well
accustomed to the halter. By spending a
little time with a colt, treating it with the
greatest gentleness, it may be taught to
travel by the side of its dam, wherever she
goes.
Tie the colt's halter to the backhand of
the dam's harness, so that it can just reach
her under. This length of halter will pre
vent the colt running forward of the mare
when she is traveling. In a few days it
will become so gentle, that any one can put
on the halter and handle it. When colts
are not accustomed to the halter until they
are two or more years old, they are fre
quently very difficult to manage. But if
taught to lead when quite young, they can
often be changed from one place to another
with little difficulty, and will be much more
manageable.
GARGET IN COWS. —As this disease is some
what common when cows are giving a large
flow of milk in spring, 1 give my experi
ence. Having a valuable cow two years
since, which gave an unusual quantity of
milk, I found one night at milking, one
quarter of her udder had become very hard,
and only yielded a small quantity of clot
ted milk. The remedy I used was this,
which I had seen in an agricultural paper,
viz : 8 drops of tincture of aconite dropped
on a piece of bread and mixed with her
feed
In the morning she was much better, but
I gave 4 drops more, aud the night follow
ing found her all right, with about her
usual quantity of milk. Since then I have
tried the same remedy in one or two in
stances with equal success.

WINTERING HOGS ON TURNIPS. —S. M. Thur
! ston, Dacoto Co., Wis., writes : " I have
wintered my hogs on raw rutabagas for
two winters, and think them better than
potatoes." Sow ruta-bagas on good deep
soil in June.
To CURE A FELON —As soon as the parts
j begin to swell, get the tincture of lobelia,
; and wrap the parts affected with cloth, sat
urate it thoroughly with the tincture, and
; the felon will soon die " die"-—poisoned iu
stead ot hung, as all felons ought to be.
An old physician informs us that he has
known this to cure in scores of cases, and
it never fails if applied in season.
