Rotation
"Why is rotation necesary ?" This is
a frequent inquiry with practical man.—
Supposing a crop carries off certain speci'
fled amount of inorganic substance irom
the soil, caeh of which is indispenaible
to its developement, it follows as a mat
ter of course, that the cultivation oi the
crop, for several consecutive years, will
abstract so far from the cupply in the soil,
as ultimately to deprive it of the power
of producing it. Kut all crops do not ex
haust the soil of the special substance and
hence if we cultivate ludian corn for a
couple of years iusucession, on one field,
and then potatoes, turnips, peas, beans
or carrots, we shall find that the latter
are by no means stultifiied Irom any lack
to nutriment —each finding ita appropri
ate aliment, and in sufficient quantities
to insure its healthy growth and n>atu
ration. There are many organic sub
stances in the soil which the corn plant,
does not specially require,or appropriate,
and which are consequently not exhaus
ted by its cultivation; while each of them
arc essential to the growth of some ve
getable. Ilence it is that when these are
grown alternately, the productive powers
of the soil are not so rapidly exhausted,
and fertility is kept up by a sott of reeup>
erative process; the organic element nec.
cessary for the dovelopement of one crop.
having time to accumulate while the soil,
is occupied by another crop by which
they are not required.
In many sections of our country the In
dian corn crop is ono of prime importance
consequently it is frequently cultivated
for two, or three and even four years in
succession, on the same field, but I have
observed whenever this practice has been
injudiciously adopted, that, aftor the third
Heason, generally after the second, there
is]an obvious falling off, even when liberal
manuring is adopted. Very few farm
ers, therefore, who consult their own in,
terests, and who have had the benefit of
experience and observation, are found to
l'avor it either in theory or practice.
By adopting a judicious system of rcc.
tation, and adhering rigidly to it, with
the asistance of copious manuring—re>
turning to the soil more, if possible than
the crops carry off—any laud may be re»
tained in a condition of high fertility;
while by nil oppesite course, it will as cer,
tainly be exhausted and"run out."
It is a priucipal with me never to
tempt the cultivation of a crop which I
cannot afford to manure well, and this
shouid be the policy of (.very farmer.—
One had better run in debt for manure
than exhaust his soil by cropping with~
out it, or, perhaps, had better suffer his
land to rest until manure can be made.—

To PROTECT SUKEP FROM DOGS. —
If sheep are kept in the same lot
with cows or fat cattle, no dogs will
disturb them. As soon as the dogs
approach the sheep, they run to the
cattle, who drive off the dogs. A
farmer for thirty years, in Shelby
county, by adopting this plan, never
lost a sheep by dogs, although dogs
killed sheep on the farms north and
south of him.— Rural Gentleman.
