When we look at the low average of the wheat crop in the old settled States, and the fast decreasing aver age in the new, (except in new land,) we must conclude that there is some Mismanagement with regard to the cro if so, what is it ? In the first place, I ain convinced that our usual rotation by making wheat fol low the oat crop, is wrong and ex hausting. In Europe, two white straw crops are rarely if ever taken in succession. Their average, with attention to the production and collection of manures nnd their proper application, is con stantly increasing, and why should not ours do the same with equally good management ? It may be de nied by some that the wehat-growing properties of our lands arc impaired. Of such I would mei-ely ask, why they do not grow the finer kinds of white wheat as formerly ? The an swer I think would invariably be, be cause we cannot. And does not this most conclusively prove that our lands have deteriorated ? I alluied to the proper applica tion of manure. Ido not think that wheat is the crop to which barnyard or stable manure should be applied directly. It has a tendency to pro duce an over-luxuricnt growth of straw, to the injury of the grain ; yet we all know that wo can get neither straw nor grain, when wheat is taken after oats, unle s we do ma nure, and that pretty heavily. This goes far to prove that the one should never bo made to follow the other. I cannot conceive why this objection able feature in our rotation should have worked itself into Buch very general favor, except its conveniences nnd apparent profitable occupation of the land between the corn and w heat crops. Instead of making oats a preparation for wheat, 1 would sug gest sowing cloverseed with it, or dispensing with the oat crop entirly and taking barley in its place, also to be sown with cloverseed, (with this latter crop clover succeds *emarka bly well) and then plowing the clo ver sward for wheat the fo'lowing year. If the land sin high condi tion, the first crop of clover might be made into hay or pastured, and the second growth plowed under for the wheat crop: but if the land is not fertile, and it is desired to increase its productiveness, I would adviso turning under the growth of the whole season. This wculd leave the manure to be applied to tho corn crop, where I beliove it would be more ben eficial than to the wheat, as applied undfer the usual system ; or it might be used for top-dressing the grass lands. Clover is an excellent crop to pro ceed wheat. The heaviest crops of wheat I ever succeeded in raising, were sown on clover sward. In plowing under clover I prefer waiting until it has perfectly matured. Many prefer plowing when it is in full bloom, but this does not coincide with my experience. It is true that there is apparently a greater amount of veg etable matter upon the ground at the time of flowering, but it is too sappy, and disappears very soon after being turned under, in consequence of a too rapid fermentation taking place- The objection may be raised to plowing down a crop of clover, that it is an epxensive mode of manuring but this 1 think is incorrect; for the expense should not be counted at a higher figure than the interest on the cost of land with tho vako of the cloverseed added; and it is im possible to manuro as cheaply and at the same time as effectually in any other manner. Thaer, in his work on the "Prin ciples of Agriculture," after enumer ating a number of crops suitable to bo grown before wheat, concludes by saying, 'Lastly, the best way of ob taining good crops of wheat, is to sow the grain oo broken up clover land and he farther recommends that the <?l»ver should be plowed a month previous to sowing the wheat. This recommendation coincides with the practice of many of the farmers in England, Avho prefer 'sowing wheat on a stalo furrow, under the impres sion that land which has become somewhat compact in consequence of having had time to settle, is more co genial to the growth of wheat, than that wiiLeii has been recently plowed. It is also thought important not to have the ground to finely pulverized, as the grain is snpposcd to stand the winter better when the land is some what cloddy OB the surface. This is also the opinion of many of the jnost successful wheat-growers in the interior of this State, and it also co incides with my own experience.— 'fie reason for prefering a cloddy euface is, that it does not so readily form a crust after showers, and the clods as they crumble to pieces du ring the winter and spring, Bupply fresh, mellow «artb to the roots of the plants. Another imp«rtant point is the mode of sowing, whether it it better to drill or sow broadcast. Drilling Las certainly become very popular, and not without some good reasons, among which the following seem to be most important. The wheat may all be drilled ia a short time, at the proper season, the land having been previously prepared—and in case of interrupting the work, it is fin ishe! after harrowing, which mu:t often be done if sown broadcast, when the land is too wet, or perhaps must be delayed until tho grain has sprouted. The seed is also deposited an a regular depth by the drill, and is thought to stand the winter better tnan when sown broadcast and cover ed with the harrow. But the great est advantage to be gained by drill ing seems to be entirely overlooked by the farmers of this country. In Lngland and Scotland drilling is on ly resorted toon account of the in creased facility it affords for hoeing the crop, and not with any idea that it increases the yield unless it is hoed. A series of experiments made in Scot land, in tho vicinity of Edinburgh, to test the relative advantages of drill and broabcast sowing, pretty con clusively established the fact tbat whenever the drilled wheat was ho ed, the yield was greater than the broadcast, (not hoed.) But when the drilled was greater than the broadcast, (not hoed.) But when the drilled was not cultivated, the supe riority was on the side of the broad cast, thus showing conclusivly that the increased yield of the drilled wheat was attributable to the hoeing and not to its being drilled. All things being equal, I incline to the opinion that broadcast generally succeeds better than drilled wheat. In drilling, the grain is closely de posited in narrow rows to allow the roots Bufficiedt space to grow with out interfering with each other; much of the grass seed is also washed into the drills by rains, so that we often- have both grass and grain growing in narrow rows, muoh to the detriment of each other. From the above remarks I do not wish to be understood as condemn ing the use of the drill, although I must acknowledge that I havo lost much of the high appreciation I once had for it. My object has been to draw the attention of the Club more particularly to the subject. It is one of much importance, and can be solved only by a close observation anb actual experiment. On the Square. "I)o you make calls on New Years?" "Never," said my friend Tom. "I used to, but I aui cured." "How so ?" said I, anxious to learo I his experience. "Why, you see," said Tom, feelingly, "as 1 wns making calls, some years back, I fell in love with a beautiful girl—that she was. Well, sir, I courted her like a trump, and tho't I had her sure, when she eloped with a tailor—yes, sir-ee that lovely creature did." "She showed bad taste," said I, com passionately. "More than that," remarked torn, ner vously," "Downright inhumauity" is the word. I could stand being jilted for a down-town broker, a captain with whis kers, or anything showy, that I could— but to be cut out, like a suit of clothes by the "ninth part" of a man—that was brutality. But I swore vengence—that I did. "Vengence?" I oorvously inquired. "Yes, sir," said Tom, with earnestness and I took it. I patronized tho robber of my happiness, and ordered a lull suit of clothes, regardless of expense. He laid himself out on the job, I tell you;— they were stunning you may believe it." "But your vengence," said I, prompt ing him. "I stuck that tailor in the most vital point, that I did—l never paid that bill; no sir-ee, I didn't. But those infernal clothes were tho causo of all my misfor tunes, that they wero." "How so ?" said I, with a smile of com passion. "Wearing them, I captivated wy pres ent wifo. She told me so. and I havu't had a happy day since. But I ani bound to bo square with that wretched tailor, in the long run. I've left him a legacy on condition he marries my widow."
