trite farmers department. * MSNURE; You will doubtless agree with me in the ma.xitn, that the formation, preservation anil judicious applica tion of manure, is the most essential pari of good husbandry. Ilio dura bility of soils, when subjected to the too often emasculating process of cultivation, is governed, to a very considerable extent, by its constitu tional texture and hyi rometic powers. All clayey lands havo $ strong afini tv tor fertilising salts, and are found to retain them with great tenacity, but under a judicious system ofdrain age and tillage, they part with them as rapidly as profitable to the farm er, or beneficial to tjic crops they arc made to support. Here it is, that the application of alminons earth, to sandy lands, is of such signal bene fit, although apart from the increase of this capacity which it insures, there are other important advantages at tending this amalgamation —such as increase of retentive power, in re gard to water, and consolidation, ■which renders lands so improved, a more fit medium for tho roots of plants. On this topic, a writer re marks: "To show tho capacity of arable lands to produce breadstuffs, and not to reach the extreme limit, which is unknown, it is enough to say that our climate is equal to the yield of thirty bushels of wheat, and oighty of corn per acre, provided the plants are properly fed.—llow should a farmer feed corn plants on his farm which is equal to tho production of fifteen bushels per acre, so that the same will, in the course cf a few years, produce crops five times as large ? 'To do this without going oft' the field for fertilisers, is the end to bo at tained." The process is a very simple one, and consists simply in returning to tho soil, every year, a little more of the material constituting the food of plants, than the crop requires* Ev ery vegetable that the soil produces, and perfects, abstracts a given amout of its fertilising particles, anil if the plant is carried off, and consumed at a distance from the locality where it was grown, and no equivalent re turned, the soil is impoverished just in the ratio of the quantity required for its production, and no less. In tho corn grain, wo find silica, lime, potash, soda and five or six other elements, all of which are derived di rectly from the soil, or from the ma .nurc applied to it to support the crop, and if we continue to remove crop after crop, these elements must, in time, be exhausted, and the so 1 re duced to sterility, unless liberally manured. So far as the feeding of vegetables is concerned, those ele mentary matters may be contempla ted as indistructible and eternal,— The 'itne and the soda contained in a kernel of corn this year, may be re turned to tho soil and constitute a part of the same species of grain the next ; and sb with all.the other con stituent organic as well as inorgan ic, of which corn is composed. The science of feeding vegetables is yet in its infancy, in this country, and may be said to bo so even in Europe, nlthongh there the little attention that has been accorded to the subject has resulted in raising the yield of wheat from sixteen to thirty-two bushels; which is now the average product. Wherever similar attempts have beer, made in this country, they have generally been attended with similar results. The crop of Indian corn has been greatly increased in quantity and improved in quality.— According to the statistics of our Agricultural Societies, the yield has often been as great as one hundred and forty bushels (shelled corn) to the acre. The average yield, how ever, is probably less than one-fourth that amount. These facts present a fruitful theme for reflection, and one that should by no means be neglect ed or lost sight of by the farmer. Ger. Tel. J. W. I'. SUGGESTIONS. Never feed" unground grains to your animals, unless you prepare them by steaming or cooking.— Whole grain is much more expensive than meal, and will not produce the same affect, bushel for bushel, even if we deduct the toll or cqst of re ducing it to meal. Cobs should al ways be ground with the grain, if the latter is intended for feeding pur. poses. There is a large amount of nutriment in the farina of the corn cob—particularly in that portion de nominated the "pith." This makes an excellent meal for culniary pur poses, and is prefercd by many even to the meal obtained from the grain. It makes an excellent pudding. 'Those hav ing the care oi domestic animals, should candidly ponder this subject; it is one of vital importance. Let no spurious vegetation mature in your cultivated grounds, or about your premises.—Often more injury is done to lands uudor crop by the fouling effects ol' weeds lux.'iratiug in some nook or corner of the dooryard, than by all the vegetatiou they produce. As they stand apart and isolated, it is fatuously suppos ed they can effect DO detrimental influ ence upon husbandry—but such is by no moans the case. The seeds of the mullein, burdock, thistle, nettle and ma ny other cognate plants, are "legion," and when fully ripe, arc easily dissemi nated by the winds tar and wide, lleing indigenous in their nature, they require not the solicitations ol'art. to induce them to take root, but enter as enterlopers, ap- propriate the best places, and, if not re strained by actual eoereire measures, speedily monopolize that which is requir ed fur the development and maturation of more valuable plants.— Ger. Tel. AN OL» FARMER. Theory of Land Drainage, A plant, th.jngh spreading its roots to a certain distance all around it in the soil, is stationary, and must have its food brought to it. That is the first main fact on which the need de pends for current of water through the land. Water, a poweful solvent, brings substances out of the air which the plant requires as food, and these substances increase its powers as solvent of other matters in the soil which the plants also need as food. Moreover, water brings from the air materials of use in th.; soil in manufacturing food for the use of plants. On all these grounds, then, it is of importance that water should go through the soilaftergoing through the air. it becomes laden with veg etable food by passing through tho air, and it becomes s ill more laden with vegetable food by passing through the soil, till, when traversing the soil, it passes stationary roots and enters them, and feeds the plants to which they belong. And thee are special reasons why rain water should be in duced to pass tnrough the soil rather than lie stagnant on it. In the lat ter case it is not only useless to the plant, but it is directly mischievous. By evaporation it coois the snrface, whereas by percolation through the land it carries the warmer tempera ture of the surface into the subsoil; and of what value this is to the growth no cr ps may be gathered from the experience of the last autumn, which has been so productive of growth in our pas tures to so unusually late a season—not so much from the increased temperature of the air during November and December, which has been only about two or three degrees above the average of the last BO years, as from the increased temperature oi the soil and subsoil at one and two feet deep, which has been five and six de grees above the average of the past thir teen years during which observations have beeu made near London. And not only is it of importance that rain by passing through the land, should carry the tem perature sf the surface, warmed by tho direot rays of the sun, downwards, rath er than, by evaporating from the surface, it should carry the heat away and cool l ha soil; but the percolation rather than the stagnation of the water is desirable, because in the one case air is made to permeate the land, in the other it is ex cluded. The chemical changes which air produces on and in the soil arc desira ble, and result in tho preparation of use ful food for plants ; while by its exclu sion, substances of a poisonous nature, especially where iron and vegetable mat ter exists together in the soil arc formed. —Morton's Fanner's Calendar.
