    Agricultural.
The Culture of Indian Corn.
AND TnE WAY TO MAKE MANURE FOR IT.
Our correspondent, Hon. J. W. Col
burne, of 3priug6eld, (Vt.,) says the Al
bany Cultivator, received the prizes of
his tate ami County Agricultural Socie
ties for the best field oflndian Corn, the
iat your. The Geld contained seven and
a hall acre", and the product averaged one
humred and Jive bushels (5t5 lb the bush
el) per aere. The eobs weighed 12 lbs.
per bushel. Mr. C. has sent us the state
ment which he furnished the Societies, of
the manner in which this crop was grown.
It is particularly interesting, showing as
it does, how he made sufficient manure to
enable him to apply it in such abundance
to this field. We know it will be doubt
ed by some whether he acted wisely in
manuring so heavily; but if all our fann
ers will follow his cxamnle in the meas
ures he took to increase the amount of
Lis manure, thej- will have little occasion
to tsend abroad for artificial fertilizers.
Mr. Colburne says:
The soil of thi.s field is ailuvian, and was
broken up to the depth of sis inches, af
ter a coating of manure of 40 loads to
each acre, spread broadens!, had been ap
plied in the spring of 1652. The plow
used as the Eale C, turning a fiatfur
row, and performing its work admirably
and here permit me to digress a inouiout;
from the subject, while I say, (and T
speak from my own experience,) that in
my judgment ,there arc no plows in ex
istence, taking into account the case of
draft, the depth and thoroughness of their
w ork, that are to accurately and weli a
u.pted to an improved cultivation, as the
Ysnoas kinds of the deep tilleries of the
Este Class, manufactured by Rubles,
Moarse & Mason.
This field was planted with corn which
toon came up, and the prospects for a
good crop were flattering: but as often
happens ou sward land, the copper head
grub or cut worm, made its appearance,
and destroyed most of the first, and con
tiderable portion of second planting. I
however, harvested about 50 bushels of
torn to the acre, and a large quantity of
pumpkins.
Being desirous to obtain an esira crop
of corn from this field before seeding to
gras, in the spring of 1853, I applied,
broadcast, 50 ox cart loads of manure to
ach acre, making 90 loads to each acre,
in the two years. The loads were large,
side boards upon the cart body, and w'ould
contain 35 bushels potatoe measure. The
manure 'ras in different .taee3 of decom
position; a part of it was from t!.e hog
yard, fine and rotten, some of it a com
post heap, made up of horse and chip ma
nure, leached ar-bc?, rich loam from the
ditches on road sides, broken bones, the

hoveled over during the summer season,
k- pt dicing upon the teps, on v. rich were
diiiy thrown all the enriching Ra.-h from
the kitchen and chambers of dwelling
That portion from ko yard, was madt
up ot turfs from road sides, rich loam from
under ttftble floors, decaying leaves from
?be forests, bntkes from the pasture, green
wt-eds and thi.-tles, potatoe vines, the
f'.ls of 800 bushels of corn ,and nil other
:u. e matter that c&me to had. There
"t 1SS loads of strong manure from
''.e.-etwo sources, and after paying for
f labor of putting in materia! and work-in-r
it over, the actual value of it when
t-tkea out and applied to the soil, left a
! re balance towards defraying the ex-
ense of rxising and fattening the sirine
ti:ut helped to make and work it o
vlt. I would here remark: that I have
iio swamp or muck bed upon my farm: 3
!. .ve no suck mine of wealth to resort to,
rw-ll the manure heaps and enrich m
! i Is if 1 had, 1 believe I fehouid know
t w to reel ate and use it; but sach
:neai ael'li&vo at cotamand, I endeavor
! niake the most of.
The balance of the manure applied to
thia field of seven and a half acres, was
made in, without adding any material ex
cept refuse straw which was used freeiy
ii jujrk to keep the jards warm and dry,
u l to absotb the liquid portion of the
.jioopins, horse and cattle statles kept
Ided so as to take up and absorb the
urine, and the course part of cornfodder
:iids very much to yard manure. This
p'rtioit was rather coarse, and was applied
lu its green state, which necessarily requir
ed labor the of one man when the plow
was running, to bruch it into the furrow,
that no obstruction to a thorough plowing
fhould exist. It was plowed 10 inches
deep, 4 I'ltches under the decayed sward
with a fchort mould-board plow, breaking
nnd pulverising the soil and mixing the
manure with it, which with a thorough
after harrowiug, left one of the best pre
pared fielda for Indian Corn, that could
posbibly be obtained.
The planting took place on the 18th of
May, with the corn planter, droppiug
placer and ashes with the seed, about six
bushels to the acre, the rows north and
south, four feet distance aud hills two
feet. At the first hoeing the stalks wc
desigued to be reduced to three in each
hill, but in many hills four wore left. A
mixture of ashes and plaster, a single
handful to each hill, was then applied, and
after the second hoeing, plaster alone, a
table spoonful to each hill, the third hoe
ing soon followed, all doue with care aud
neatness, using the cultivator and eleva
ting the earth but slightly around the
hills.
The manuring of tho year previous, to
gether with the decayed sward, seemed to
bring the young corn forward with aston
ishing rapidity in its earlier stages, and
the last manuring with the deep plowing
and thorough culture told with powerful
cueet in maturing tne crop

putting a strong band around .the shock
abovo the oars; after standing three woeks
the jiufdnigGommGUCcd and was finished
on the 19th of October; making no as
sortment, as it was all dry and sound.
Thcsample shown yon is no belter than
the whole will average. It is a mixture
of the eight and twelve rowed varieties,
with a small cob and deep flat kernel;
and is now grown eight, ten and twelve
rows of kernels upon the eobs, which
wiigh only twelve pounds after shelling
off fifty-six pounds of the kernel. Jy
this method of harvesting it will be seen
(hat the shock or fodder is not separated;
it. is set up in shocks of convenient size to
be put on lo a carl with a hay fork, or it
can be husked in the field if the weather
is good and the fodder drauu in after
wards. It cures well and is v.orth more
for winter forae than by any other pro-
!ces I have ever tried.
In conclusion, gentlemen, permit me to
say, that in iy experience of growing
tins crop for the la.t twenty-five years, I
cannot resist the conviction that with our
-oil and climate and the best of prepara
tion and cultivation, notTmuch over one
hundred bushels' to the acre can possibly
be obtained. There is no better soil for
the production of this valuable grain than
the alluvial bottom lands bordering upon
the Connecticut River, and yet when I
have done my bestcn these las.b, I have
oftener fallen ? hovt than gone over one
hundred biibhcls to the acre. This is a
great ytefd and requires extraordinary ef
fort, with a very favorable season to ob
tain it. Whenever I sec the enormous
yield of one hundred and thirty to one
hundred and fifty bushels to the acre, I
cannot but entertain the opinion, that
some inaccuracy in the measurement has
been made, though perhaps net designed
ly. I kuow these remarks are gratuitous
and may le deimcd iir.pcitincnt, but they
arc n-'t designed lo particularize or to
personalia; thex only aihtde in general
terms, to what is thought to he erroneous.

8500 CHALLENGE,
Whatever concerns the happiness and
health of a people is at all times of the most
valuable importance. I take it for granted
that every person will do all in their power,
to save tho lives of their children, and that
every person will endeavor to promote their
own health at all sacrifices, 1 feel it to be
my duty to solmenly assure you that worms,
according to the opinion of the most cele
brated Physicians, are the primary causes
of a large majority of diseases to which
children and adults are liable; if you have
an appetite continually chargeable from one
kind of fo'od to another, Bad Breath, Pain
in the Stomach, Picking at the Nose, Hard
ness and Fullness ol the Belley, Dry Cough,
Slow Fever, Pulse Irregular remember
that all these denote worms, and you should
at once apply the remedy:
ISobcissack's worm Syrup.
An article founded upon Scientific Princi
ples, compounded with purely vegetable sub
stances, being perfectly safe when taken, &
can be given to the most tender Infant with
decided beneficial effect, where Bowel Com
plaints and Diarhaa have made them weak
and debilitated, the Tonic properties of my
Worm Syrup are such, that it stands with,
out an equal in the catalogue of medicines,
in civing tone and strength to the Stomache
which makes it an Infallible remedy for
those afflicted with Despepsia. the aston
ishing cures performed by this Syrup after
Physicians have failed, is the best evidence
of its superior efficacy over all others.
TSie Tape Worm !
This is the mosf difficult Worm to des
troy of all that infest the human system.
Itgrowstoan almost Indefinite length, be
coming so coiled and fastened in the Intes
tines and Stomach affecting the health so
sadly as to cause St. Yilus Dance, Fits,&c.
that those afflicted seldom if ever suspect
that it is Tape Worm hastening them to an
early grave. In order to destroy this Worm
a very energetic treatment must be pursued,
it would therefore be proper to take fi or 8
of my Liver Pills so as to remove all ob
structions, that the Worm Syrup may act
direct upon the Worm which must be taken
in doses of 2 Table spoon's full 3 times a
day, these directions followed, have never
been known to fail in curing the most obsti
nate case of Tape Worm.

No part of man is more liable to disease
tan the Liver, it serving as a fjherer t
purify the blood, or gi ing the- proper secre
iin to the bile; so that any wrong action of
the Liver affects the other important parts
of the system, and results variously, in Liv
er Complaint. Jaundice, Dyspepsia, &c.
We should, therefore, wairh every symptom
that might indicate a wrong action of the
Liver. These Pills beiiiy composed of
Hoots and Plants furnished Iy nature to heal
the sick: Namely 1st, An Expectorant.
which augments the secretion from the Pul
monary mucus membrane, or promotes the
;ieharge of secreted matter. 2d, An Al
terative, which charges in some explicable
tnd insensible manner, the certain morbid
.utioii of the system. 3d, A Tonic, which
aives lone and strength to the nervous sy3
em, renewing health and vigor to all parts,
ot the body. 4th, A Cathartic, which acts
m perfect harmony with the other ingredi
ents, and opeiating on the Bowels, and ex
celling the whole mas3 of corrupt and vitia
ted matter, and purifying the Blood, which
.eitroys disease and restores health.
