THI BEST TOMATO TOR CULTIVATION.— After trying a number of new kinds recently introduced to public notice, I have about coeie to the conclusion that none of them are ; superior to tha old Feejee, or pink variety.— j If it were a few weeks earlier, its uniform i large site and excellent quality would leave bit little to be desired in the tnma'o line : | and this possibility might be attained by coltivation, taking pains to save seed every year only frotn the very earliest specimens. On the coitrary, however, this is rarely done ca'everybody is deeiron of enjoying the ripe fruit as early as possible, far superior, as it certainly is, to that most carefully prepared in cans, though this last, of course, is better all winter than no tomatoes at all. Not withstanding the Eureka. Eirly Ptolific*.etc, which we hear cracked up every year as somcthtDg new, if no better than what we already have, it seems to me that if we on fine ourselves to the Feejes for size and quality, and concentrate our efforts on getting it as much earlier,than it now is as we po*-> sihly can, that all that can fairly be expected in the tomato line will be reabzed. If any of your readers have anything better in the way of this excellent standard veze'able.fhey Will be doing the pubbc a g'eat benefi' by making it known.— Fatmer's. Advertiser. WHEN TO TURN IN CLOVER.— In 'he re gions where green crops are turned undr for manure, there is a diversity of practice. Some plow when tha crop is in its mo?t sticctilen l state. The rule for clover is when the heads are about half turned brown. The reason of ferred for this practice is, that the bulk • f the crop is then greatest, and it undergoes most rapid decomposition in the soil. Others do not plow in clover until late in the fall, and after it has been well pastured. Ttie reasons they give for th.s prac ice are. Ist. Tiist turning the clover green, msKes the soil sour, and has a tendency to bring in sorrel. 2d. It has a bad infijence upon subsequent crops. 3d. In waitimg until fall, you have the ad vantage of pasturing, and if the cattle art kept upon the pasture, as they should be, everything the field praducasis returned to it. 4th. More carbonaceous matter is returned to it. W-hat you lose in lops, you gain in roots of the el ver, which have four or five months longer to grow. sth. Better crops follow. Some of the best farmers in Pennsylvania follow this method altogether. O'hera s"ll wan tilt tin following spring, and turn in t'ie cl.vr ju-t as it begins to grow. From the Rural New Yorker, How to Grow a Large Crop .-r Corn In April, gather together a!) the lechel and unleached ashes, and the dropping of the poultry houe, and under coyer, mix and thoroughly incorporate, ready lor ue. A hoot the 25th of April or first of May, drag the ground ail to piece*, and then drag it over again, May Bth to lOtb, drag again and mark the rows four feet apart each way. May 10th to 14th plant seven or nine grains in a hill. With two boys or girl* to drop the seed at the intersection of the row*, one man can plant three or four acres per day. Cover one incfc deep. Immediately after planting, before the corn sprouts, out with your compost of ashe* and home made guano, and drop from two to four spoonsful! on each bill. As soon as y"U can follow the rows nicely, go in and cultivate both ways. All the scarecrow you want in the field is—yourself. Thin out to five plant* in a hill. When the corn is four or five inch es high cultivate and weed and hoe carefully with a hand hoe. Then cultivate as often a once in ten days until it is too large to drive a horse among. Never hill corn up, its roots need ail the heat of '.be sun to perfect its growth. A* aoon as it is in the tassel, go through 't with the corn knife, and cut all wee Is close to the ground, so as to let in the air and sun-shine to manure the crop. September 10 to 20th, cut up and put about Wenty hill* in a stack October Ist to 15th, husk and crib. I have in this way rai-ed 1 750 bu-bels of sound ears on 11J acres, and heavier crops per acre on smaller pieces. Try my method, and report progress in the Rural. A Western Pesn'a.
