need not be ashamed of, must lay him
self out in the fits', place, io put hi
ground in good condition, and I It if can
only be effected by deep ploughing, and
uch pulverisation, by harrowing and
cio8 fvi trowing, do will make the lilil'
aa fine as Ole Bull's fiddle. To rupee
the corn nlant to crow and manuie it-
fruit luxuriantly io a cloddy and hull
prepared soil. is jut at unreasonable as
wuol.i he the attempt lo get up slesm
without fue, in the second place, unless
his lan l be in ery high state of fertili
ly, ho must make tirsneKinents lo ma
nur e his corn ground with a lib r !
nay with a prodigil hand for, of a truth
the corn plant is a most voracious feede i
and delights like many a gormand, lo
luxuriate amid grass viand, of various
compounds. In the third place, if he
desires to assume the best chance of suc
cess, and ensure against the accidents of
flooii and field,' he should plant early
In iheTounh place, he should be assidi
ous in working his crop from its firs1
coming up, until he lays it by, in order
that in the race for mastery, the weed
may always be kept down, 'and never
for a day be permitted to rob the corn
plants of any portion of the food which
may be buried in earth, or floating in
sir. In a word, the earth, should at all
times be kept clean of weeds, and open
to the influences of sun, aii, dew and
rain, agencies as essential to their growth
as the best and most enriching ma
nures. We have recommended deep plough
ing, but far, very Tar, would we
be from recemmending deep ploughing
ifter the plants arrive al any considers
Lie height. Indeed, after the first work
ing, we would abandon the plough alto
gether, and rely upon the cultivator, to
be followed by careful hoemen lo eradi
cate such weeds as may not be reached
by the former implement; for nolwilh
standing many intelligent writers, a
well as practical planters contend that the
cutting of the roots by the piougn n
beneficial, we cannot reconcile ihe prac
lice to our notion and common sense
view of tilings. Nature intended the
roots as the mediums of feeding, and
every act of violence, every separa
tion to which they may be subject
must necessarily tend to retard their
crowth, because such treatment arresti
that continuous absorption and elabora
tion of thai portion of their food which
is derived from the earth.
With reeard to verv laree crops of
a
corn we have a remark or two to make
Ii must be obvious, that without close
planting, no matter what the quality
of the soil may be no mattar how no
tably the culture may he pursued un
less a sufficient number of stalks be
grown upon an acre, Ihe yield will al
ways be more or less circumscribed, as
without ihe stalks be on ihe earth ihej
cannot produce ears of corn.
It should be an object with every
corn grower to provide his corn ground
with lime, plaster, and ashes, as well
as the nutritive manures, for unles.
there be potash in the soil to dissolvt
the sand, and from what is called the
silicate of potash, the substances which
compress the outer-crust ot the coro
titock vegetation cannot go on with
that economy which leads to the fructi
fication of ihe grain, as Ihe stalks sre
mainly constituted of sand, reduced by
the action of potash, into a fluid stale,
and thus taken up by ihe roots and
iiistrihiitcd, so as to impart lo it the
capacity io uland erect and sustain its
linthen.
Ten bushels of ashes ami one of plas
ter well mixed together, is sufficient
for an acre, whether sowed broadcast,
or used in, or on Ihe lop of each hill
We have sometimes thought lhat tin
best disposition to be made of ashes and
plaster, would be lo compost Ihem wilh
the msntire of ihe barn yard before
hauling it out to he ploughed; by such
treatment, eveiy part of the corn fi?ld
would derive benefit from their applica
tion, instead of its being confined to the
immediate vicinity of Ihe hills
The soaking of the speds of corn in a
weak solution of saltpetre or of copper
as, before being planted, has a two-fold
good effect it promotes early gormina
lion and prevents the depietls'ions of
worms and birds We have used both
soak, and never without being impress
ed with the conviction ol having deriv
ed advantage from each.
We have with decided gooo
decided ttooo. clleft
sown two bushels of salt, broadcast, cu
sn acr of corn after it had come up.
The effect as it manifesled itself to u,
wa, lo maintain, in one of the diics
-easons we ever rr collect to have experi
enced, a degree of moisture on the pari
nline the sail was used, highly beiiefi
I'ial to have pit-served the blades green
tvlien ilmxi' all around the sal'ed part
i run bit d i to powder on ihe slightest

PLANTING COM,
Mrisrs Kditois: Through the column
of your valuable paper, I hope to make
known an experiment which 1 adopted last
season in the culture of com In the first
place I ridged my land on the first of May
men hook one oiisnei ol lime, one ol
plaster, one of sali,t one of ashes and mix.
d them all well together- then I din Hie
uoie lor inn inn, ami in each place I put
as much of the composition as yon could
held in your hand; then I put the corn on
top, covereu it lightly wuh earth. The ef
lect prouueeu was astonishing. It is also
a preventative against the grub and all
oilier insects wliich inhabit the com
lield
I would recommend lo those who should
happen lo try the above process thai
they could not spend time sufficient to put
it into the hill, to place it on the surface aa
soon as the corn begins lo show itself; and
il ine tana is in a toleratle condition I will
warrant the in nil extra croii.
In planting ihe corn, in which I tried the
experiment, I slipped now and thon a hill
in which 1 neglected lo put the composi
nun, hiiu ii was pciceptanie as lar as you
couid see over tne neiil l think there wa
not a hill missing in the whole field where
I put the composition but where neglected
it was uesiroyeu Dy the grub in a great
measure.
This composition draws from the atmos
phere, carbonic ncid gas which is one ol
the most essential properties of mailer in
the growth of all vegetable productions. It
will absorb on an average, four limes its
weight in water.
Upon a dry, sandy soil, it will prevent in
a great measure, ihe effects ol the drought
which we are subject to in (he monihs ol
July and August when moisture was ve
ry necessary for ihe selling ol the ear.

PICTLKE OF HEALTH.
E A 117 is cbntcrised in nn imlivit'i nl by
the absence of all pain, suffering, or nflVction
in any part of his hotly; by the freo and rrgular ex
erciso of his functions without any exception.
They consist in having a good appetite nt meal
times, an easy digestion, free evacuations, wilhout
loo4creia or costivencsts at least once in every twenty-four
hours, anil without hent.diyncss, or burning
at tlio pnasngc, the free issue of tho water willimil
acrimony or burning, and without a reddish sedi
ment which is always a sign oft present or an ap
proaching pain; quiet sleep without ngilaliou or
truoblesiune dreaniv; no taste of bile or other bail
taste in tlio niniilh upon rising in the morning; no
sourness or disagreeuhlu rising of tho stomach; a
clean tongue; a sweet bieathj no itching, pimples or
"pot on the skin; no piles; no burning heat upon
any part of the body; no excessive thirst when un
exposed to labor or oilier known cause; no inter
ruplion to any natural evacuation, nor pain at their
periodical return.
Where the state of the system does not harmon
ize with the abovo picture of health, it is of the
rcitlcst importance tluit no tiinu be lost in sending
for a doctor, or in the use of foolish rcmedirs ton
often the result of speculniion; instead of this course
te a dose of UKAIN DKETH'S Pll.LH ,e taken

recourse to the irauurctli Tills, when the stale til

tinued judicious and hbcial expenditures will con
tinually be made, as well in the I.ittrary as the Ty.
pographical departments. Our means will always
enable us to be in advance of all ollicrs.and we shall
lie so.

ing year, iu addition to our ulready numerous pop
