country to allow the manure formcl in the "barnyar.l during the winter to remain there until! weeding time in the fall. I" this an economical plan? Does not the manure undergo con siderable loss in the yard during the warm weather of summer ? It has been calculated by those who havo had experience and the means of as certaining, that for every ten hun dred weight of dry fodder, hay or straw used ; the farmer way expect from twenty to twenty-flve hundred weight of manure, in the spring. This ten hundred weight of dry food and straw «-ill, as before state •, produce from twenty to twentysfive hundred weight of fresh dung, which, at t.ie end of MX weeks will weigh but t<venty-opc hundred ; at the end of «ight weeks but twenty; when half rotten but from fifteen to sev enteen ; when entirely rotten, but from ten to thirteen. Thus, we see that, by the time the manure is fully rotten, one-fourth of the weight is Ir.st, and tho mass is diminislrd in bulk one-half. Thee remarks apply to manure which is left exposed to the action of tho sun and rain. The main loss is in water ; but there is a very large loss in ammon iaandother volatile substances, which aro evaporated by the heat of the sun, or washud out by the rain. The question, then, is: Woul'J it not be better to haul the manure out to the field in the spring and plow it under, so that wh;it los 3 by decom position and fermentation does take place may bo absorbed by the soil ? If enriching the soil was the only object in view, it would without doubt be most economical to plow the manure under as soon as possible af ter it is formed ; but there are other points to be considered, a*, for in stance, the state of the soil with re gard to texture. If the soil is light and very open, it would not be economical to plow J in long or fresh manure, for it would ! have a tendency to make it still more so ; the rain would wash the soluble portions of kite manure too deep be- j fore they couTd be absorbed by the soil, and in this way a greater loss might bo created than if the manure had remained injthe barnyard. But in heavy or common soils it is un* doubtedly more economical to plow in j the straw and other manure while in i a long and fresh state, for it will then have a tendency to render the | soil more open and permit a more . free passage of the air. English farmers think this is by far the bet- i tcr plan, for it converts the whole field into a heap of compost, and fer mentation goes on slowly, and as fast as the volatile portions are given off they are absorbed and retained by the soil. The crop for which tho manure is applied must also more or less influ ence tho manner of application If tho crop is one t which grows quickly and soon reaches maturity, it would not be economical to apply fresh manure, for tho plant would be done grrwing pefore the mAnure was sufi ciently decomposed to afTect it much. But if, on the other hand, the crop is one which grows slowly, nnd it is des sirable to furnish it with nourishment throughout its whole grdwth, then long manure will hctte* ajcomplish the effect than common fermented or decomposed manure. I consider that I obtain more from my manure by s .reading it on the Bod and plowing it uniier for corn, than I do by keeping it, even with the best care, until fall, and applying it to the oats stubble to bo plowed in for wheat. I think that the corn crop appro priases what would be lost by evapor ation, had the manure been retained in the barnyard in the usual way. And when seeding time c'jmcs in the fall, tl e manure is thoroughly incar porated with the scul and b ready to fertalize the wheat as soon as it begins to grew. I do not find from several trials that the oats is sensibly affectod by the manure, as Ido not turn it up when plnving for oats.— Qermin Town, Telegraph. Horses that Overreach.

The annexed account of theoiigin of (he white and sweet potatoes will Reread with interest. It is from a paper read by Mr. Thomas C»vnti?h, of.Brouklin, before the New York Farmers' Club. The butani.de name of potato is Sol omon tuberosum of Linmna. Tha potato is a peiennial p'ant, found growing in a wild stateiu South America. Humboldt thought it doubtful it it was indigenous theft?, as tubers of the wild potato, plan-, ted by the side of the cultivated var ety, differod very l : ttlo from it. Sir. Joseph Banks thought it was first brought into Kurope from mountain. us parts of South America, in the neighborhood of Quito, where they were called pip is. They were introduced info Spain in the early fart of the sixteeoili century From Spain tlmv were hrough' into Italy, where the w • lied laitul ,fr ill the truffl* or underground tuusliruiiii. The potato was ieceiM3l by t'ius us' at Vienna, in 1598, from the Governor of Mons, in llainault, who procured the roots Irotn i'he Pope's Legate, under the name of tirtufi ;it was then in mo in Italy. In Gerniany.it received the name ot h'rtol fel, and soon spread rapidly through that country. The potato found iis way into England by a different route, beinir brought from Virginia by Sir Walter llaleigh. who went there in 15St. Thorn as ileriot, in a report of tho country, describes a plant called openauk, having roots as large as walnuts, n clusters, and says they are go id fooj; either boiled or roasted. Gerarde, iu his Herbal, pub lished in 1597, gives an illustration of the potato under the name of the Potato of Virgimia, which tiame it retain ;tl for some time, in order to distinguish it from tha convolvulus Ixttalas, or sweet potato. Kir Joseph Banks says the t-wcet potato was used in England long beforo the introduction of the American potato. They were candied and sold as confec tionery. The pototo was known in Ire* land sometime before its introduction into England. Sir Walter having a large estate iu that country; it became in course of time an article of general consump- : tion in Ireland was kuown for its fine j potatoes. We suppose i( was for this leason they obtained tlic name of Irish j potatoes. Gerared thought them a j great delicacy. The tubers were roasted j and steeped in wines baked with marrow | end spices. The Royal Society, in ICG 5, j took measures oneouraging the cultiva- j tion ot the pototo. with a view of pre j venting famine; and it seems not a littlo singular that in our own time the ex- | tensive cultivation of the potato in Ireland producad the very evil tiny desir d to j remedy The failure wis no doubt j owing to the want of fresh stock. Some : writers of those early days th lUfht they ' were only fit food for swine. Another says they make good food for poor people. He left quite a numerous progeny; for , theie are a good many people just now ! who think potatoes almost too good for poor folks. Evelyn' who wrote in 1699, j says : 'Plant them in j*>ur poorest j ground ; take them up in November for j winter use, and there will yet remain : stock enough in"the ground for the next season.' This shiftless way of raising potatou* was in practice in Scot land. For many years, the Irish seem t to have been the only people who ap preciated the true value of this esculent; j for nearly 300 years the potato has been J their thief staple. Ii has been said that the people who use the potato as their j chief food 8 ion degenerate. This theory i is not well f>ui lei ; for no-vhero can (here be found a more lardy race than the Irish V«nrs ol oppression and misrule have done m.re to harm Ireland than the extensive "•uhivation of the 1 potaoto. The tubers of the potato. hnv» j ing no peculiutity of teste, consisting ; chiefly of S'arch, approach nearer to the nature of afl >ur or tire fainia of grain th HI any other vegetable root. For this reason it is almosf u iiversally likid, and em be used longer than any other veg. cable without bee ni'tig unpalatable j Among the many use* of ihe pototo in former times,was the iiianufaatiiro of wue and spirits. Still, as wine is made out of old boot legs an l whiskey out of printer's rollers, we i ee I not besurpii-od ] at p itatoes making g > >.l wine S one genim in Franco has discovered fifty different ways o!'cooking the potati.
