The Farmer's Department. UNRirE Potatoes for Seed. Henry Ward Beecher contributes the following to the Country Gentleman for August : In reply to an inquiry whether unripe potatoes are as good or better for planting than perfectly matured ones, may not some light be thrown upon the subject by the parallel cose of seeds? It is well known that many kinds of seeds, if they are to be planted immediately, will come up quick er and make equally as good plants, if they are gathered before ail the processes of maturation are perfected. In one sense a seed ia ripe as soon as its embryo is per fectly formed. It is competent to perform all the functions of a seed except one, and that one is preserve itselF against tho attack of wet and cold during the winter. For this Iastv purpose, after the seed is plantiug ripj, nature goes on storing up carbon in tho form of starch, or other ele ments, but not for the sake of adding any thing to the germinant power of the seed. It is simply for the preservation of the seed. If I were of Irish descent, I should say that nature first ripens the seed and then puis on an internal overcoat to pro tect it against the wet and cold to which, in a state of nature, it must be liable. Indian eorn is often cut off by prema ture frosts, but if the ears are well glazed, though not merchantable, 'farmers know that they will do for planting. It is probable that the same law hold with bulbs, corms and tubers. Several years ago I received a large lot of gladio lus as late' as the 1st of J uly. They blos somed well, but when gathered in autumn the corms were less ripe than my average crop.' But the ensuing season they throve best of all. Another season was so unfa vorable to gladioluses that my stock seem ed ruined : but the next year proved them to be entirely good for planting purposes. This may throw light upon the fact that in selecting gladiolus bulbs, the small and medium sized are reputed better than the large ones. They are less mature, at least in many cases. Dr. L:ndley mentions a fact in respept to the potato which seems in point to the inatterin hand. Mr. Knight, distinguished for his skill in horticulture and for; the sound philosophy by which, he guided himself in his innumerable experiments, suspected that the curl in the l&tt'of his potatoes arose from too much 'gap, and its consequent viscidity. lie; .sprouted his potatoes in heaps, detached the shoots from the tuber, and'planted them with thin little roots, carefully preserved, aud obtained perfectly healthy plants. In relating -this, Dr. Lindley adds : "The same effect has been produced by other persons, by taking up the tubers in tended for feed before they were fully grown, and consequently before the exces sive inspiration of their secretions had taken place. " When to Turn in Clover. In the regions where green crops are turned un der for manure, there is a diversity of practice. Somo plow when the crop is in its most succulent state. The rule for clover i? when the heads are about half turned browo. The reason offered for this practice is, tbat the bulk of the crop is then the greatest, and it undergoes most rapid decomposition in the soil. Others do not plow in clover until late in the fall, and after it Las been well pastured. The reasons they give for this practice are : 1. That turning in the clover green, makes soil sour, and has a tendency to produce sorrel. 2. It has a bad influence upon subse quent crops. 3. In waiting until fall, you have the advantage of pasturing, and if the cattle are kept upon the pasture, as they should, everything the field produces is returned to it. 4. More carbonaceous matter is retrned to the soil ; what you loose in tops you gain in the roots of the clover, which have four or five months longer to grow. 5. Better crops follow; Some of the best farmers in Pennsyl vania follow this method altogether. Oth ers Mill wait until the following spring, and turn in the clover just as it begins to grow. How to Get Hio Crops. As a rule, farmers are much more anxious to get big prices than big crops. There are few farms whose average production could not be doubled in a very short time by more cap ital than labor. It is safer to use capital in farming than in any other business. The credit of the plow is quite as good as that oi the loom or the anvil, and the cap ital will come if called fur. Use more ma nure and gettbitty bushels of wheat where you now get fifteen, and eighty busbols of corn where you now get . forty. The quantity of grain per acre is mainly a ques tion of manure and tillage. A big compost heap makes a full bin. With high manu ring, the soil needs a deeper stirring and a gradual bringing up of the subsoil to the surface. With the present horse harrows and cultivators, nearly all the cultivation can be done by horsa power, at a great ea viDg of expense, and a great increase of the crops. Plan for big crops this season. . Hogs in Orchards. Belief is gain ing giound that hogs are of great service in orcbatd, especiuly during the season in which defective fruit is falling from the treei". The special a'.lvr-tse claimed is that they devour the abortive apples as fast a they fall, and so destroy tho worm which ueusly infest them and which arc the cause of the apple dropping off thus preventing their reproduction and contin ued depredations. During twenty years poultry has been so improved that eggs bring three times more than before the improvements were commenced. On a good sized farm, S200 a year are aaved or lost, according as mowers, reap er?, &c,; arc cared for, JgUMMER GOODS FOR; 1S6S ! ! WHOLESALE AND RETAIL: A. A. BARKER &, SOX, . ..
