AGRICULIiTTIMIL
THE WHEAT CROP-SEED WHEAT.
During the next week the Wheat crop
of Fratikiin county Still be ready for the
reaper, ,and the iti.jtiries Sustained by this
important,crop' from various causes de
mand notice. Take the Southern coun
ties, all of which are heavy producers of
Wheat, the yield this year, Will be little
if any more than half a crop. The ex
traordinary severity of the winter is the
,main
. .cause of the, partial, failure. Cer-
tainly no winter within the last ten years
has been 'so; (lei:tractive upon Wheat al
i Nina the last. The frequent rains, attend
edlWith • alternate' freezing and thaws,
tested the vitality of the crops severely
in the inoit faVorable "bealities, and mea
spiablror altrioit wnolly destroyed it in
spouty or poorly farmed 1011..
It-is generally noticed that the white
or-Smooth Wheat has suffered most by the
winter ; and its unfavorable appearance
• s:everal weeks ago has made ma nyfarmers
resolve not to sow it again. - It is true that
it has suffered somewhat more by the
winter than the Mealier:mean - Uri:teat but
we do not regard the relative dekree. of
111,i4ire so marked as is generally stated*.
We have somesixty acres of white Wheat
to harvest, and nearly an equal amount
of the red or beardy. variety. Both are
growing 'ori different qualities of soil, and
we have carefully observed the results.
• On the low, heavy limestone soil we find
theinjury done by the winter to both va
rieties asnbout, equal. Where the land
is quite low, so that water stood upon it
during the heavy, winter rains, both kinds
are almost total failurel ;. but, where the
chances are about equal, the crops prom.
ise about equally well. The White Wheat
looked, much less promising than the other
early in the spring, and now : appears - to
be much thinner on the ground e but the
disparity_ in the yield will not sustain the
apparent difference in the growth. The
red Wheat has long, heavy blades which
witly the bushy heads, make the crops
look Much more heavy than it really is,
• while the white Wheat has verylight
'blades and, perfectly smooth - heads,
and thus -appears to be a much lighter
crop, when compared with the red varie
ty. .We have white Wheat on fallOw
ground and oats ground, and in stock land
that was not farmed in oats ; and there is
scarcely a perceptible difference in the
field. We have it also on both slate and
limestone land ; and the former being el
evated, it was not so much injured by the
winter, and will give rather the best yield
per acre. In the slate land, however, it
is slightly. injured by the Hessian fly.
The best growth of the white Wheat we
have is in part of a heavy limestone field
that had been tramped hard by the armies,
and eould.not - be worked into a mellow
condition. As the Winter softened the
heavy clotlEi they settled• .doWnr, covering
the roots of the Wheat, and thus afforded
protection from, the ruin and frosts.
_ After a careful examination of •the two
varieties of Wheat on different soils, we
do not share the prevalent conviction of
our Franklin county farmers that the
ichite Wheat should be abandoned. We
Anil sow itaFain in nearly equal propor
tion with , the red variety, and hope to
profit' y it. -While it may net stand an
uncommonly -- Wet and - tunable winter
quite so well as the red variety, it should
be remembered that we do not have once
in ten yeao se severe a winter upon
Wheat as VMS the last, and that. it is not
reasonable to expect it to encounter that
peril habitually. If a good crop of white
Wheat could be raised every other year,
and a crop like the Present in alternate
years, farmers would be compensated by
raising it: The first rear we tried three
bitshels of it and seeded two acres. Lan
, caster and ,liochester were sown in the
tiante field, and the white Wheat stood up
yell while the other went down early and
7)ever recovered. On the two acres seed
ed with • thiee bushels of white Wheat_we
fitised seventy-two bushels of clean grain,
bashels to the acre—and the
aterage yield 'of the red :varieties, was
under eighteen• bushels to the acre. One
aim& of wbitd yielded a bushel, hid did
not take half fhe room in the barn re-'
(paired for a dozen of the Itiediteranean,
and the latter yielded a. bushel to every
nineteen sheaves. The wile was over,
weight; thf. red wits under Weight---4t
having gone down before the grain was
filled, and -failed to ripen; and the white
is Worth from eight to -twelve
cents per bushel 'more than the red. Last
year we harvested nearly an equal amount
o(the two varieties'; and the white yield
ed about twenty per .cerit. more per acre
than the red; 'gained about eight bushels
in , the hundred in weight, while the red
barely held out, and the White sold for
81,72—the red for $1,60,. This year,
notwithstanding the apparout difference
between the red and white varieties in the
ff4l4: we are 'confident that the white will
yield a 4 much money per acrou'fis the red;i
mid bot for tho singularly severe winter,
kvould 'pay thirty percent. More per
: acre that:l4lre other, Whit.; Wheat, Can
ncrtialways be sown with profit where red
maybe soWn. If men will . keep'land
poor and , farm: badly,. Wide Wheat
must utterly_ fail,: saltine the: -hill but
partially fail; _and it isneirer wise to sow
it upou stubble-ground.:' 'With these ex- I
ceptions, and a word of caution about 1
putting it, pp in good order,—as it has but 1
light blades and no beard to absurb mois
ture and prevent 'close' packing in the'
mow—we still commend white Wheat , to
farmers. We believe it should constitute
part of-each year's crop. Let it be borne
in mind, hdwever, that it is quite possi- 1
ble for land to be too fine or mellow fora,;
certain yield.' • 1
—lt is a popular error 'that Seed Wheat
must be changed every few years to pre
serve its growth and .yield. Stich is not
the ease. There are well attested instan
ces of the culture of the same wheat on
the same land for twenty years, and its
yield and quality rather improved there-
bk than degenerated. We do not_ sa3 -
that it is wrong to change seed, if quite
as good or better seed can thereby be ob
tained; but we are convinced that it it
not necessary to preserve a good qualit3
of grain. Seed Wheat should be treated
differently from all the, other crops on the
karm. It should be carefully selected on
the ground—taking the heaviest growth
if standing and well filled, or if not, the
portion of the field that promises to ma
ture, well and produce the largest grains.
It should be carefully cleared of rye, cock
le, chess, other varieties of Wheat, and
any 'weeds likely to produce seed. Then
leave it stand until, it is dead ripe—the
grains perfectly-dry and hardened, when
it shouldbe cut, taken in very :Soon, and
threshed at once. Rest assured that a
careful selection of seed each year accord-
PA •
ing to the foregoing suggestions will
largely to the permanent yield of the
crop. It is a simple remedy tor dirty or
indifferent seed, and we urge our farmers
to give it a trial this year. Once tried,
we believe thht none will abandon 'the'
practice.

IT S. 10-40 BONDS.—These Bonds are
1 -J • issued under the Act of Congress of March Sth,
1864. which provides that all Bonds ismed Under this
Act shall be EXEMPT FROM TAXATION by or
under any state or municipal authority. Subscrip
tions to these Bonds are received in United States
notes or notesof National Banks. They are TO BE
REDEEMED IN COIN; at the pleasure of the Gov
ernment, at any period not less than ten nor more
than forty years from their date, and until their re
demption FIVE PER CENT. INTEREST , WILL
BE PAID IN COIN, on Bondi of not over one hun
dred dollars annually and all other Bonds semi-an
nually. The interest is payable on the first days of
March and SepteMber in each year—
Subscribers will receive either Registered or Con-,
you Bonds, as they cnay prefer. Registered Bonds
_are recorded on thO books of the G. S. Treasurer,
and can be transferred only oil the owner's order
Coupon Bonds are payable to order, and are more
convenient forcommercial uses.
Subscribers to this loan will, hare the option of he?
vine their Bonds draw interest from March let, by
paying the scorned interest 'in coin—(Oi - in United
States notes, or the notes of National Banks, adding
fifty per cent, for premium.) or receiveAlicm draw
ing interest from the date of subscription and depo
sit. As these Bonds are
Exempt from Municipal or State Taxation,
their - value is increased from one to three per cone
Per ennnm, eacording to the rate of tax levies in
varions'parts of the country-.
At the present rate of premium on geld they pay
i= OVER EIOBT PER CENT. INTEREST
in currency, and are of equal convenience as a per
manent and temporary investment:
It is believed that no securities offer so great in
ducements to lenders as the various descriptions of
U. S. Bonds. In all other forms of indebtedness, the
faith and ability of private parties or stoelr, com
panies or separate communities only is ,niedged for
payment, while for the debts of the : United States
the whole property of the country is holden tbSecnre
the payment of both principle and interest in coin.
These Bonds may be subscribed for in sums from
$6O up to any magnitude, on tbo same terms, and
are thus made equally available to the smalleA len
der and the largest capitalist. "They can be con
verted into money at any moment, and the holder
will have tho benefit of the interest.
It may be useful to state in this connection that
the total Fundid Debt of the United Statmeti Which
interest is payable in gold, on the 3d day ai l March,
1864, was $768,975,000. Tho interest on tbis ; debt for
the °prolog fiscal year will be $45,937.1i, while the
oustom,4evenue in gold for the current deed, year
ending dune 30th , 1864 . has boon so far at the rate
of over 5100,008,000 per annum.
It will bo soon that oven the present gold rev
enues of the Government are lowly:, in excess of
the wants of the Treasury - for the payment of gold
interest, while the recent inerease of the tariff will
doubtless raise the annual receipts from ouStoras on
tho same amount of importations, to $1.50,000,000
per annum.
Instructions to the National Banks actieg as loan
agen tsw ere not issued from the United States Treas
ury-until March 26, but in the first three weeks of
