Agriculture Among the Romans.
The Roman farmers, like ourselves,
were fond of putting on record any ex
traordinary crop. Pliny says that there
wore sent front Byzantium in Africa, to
Augustus, nearly 400 stalks, all from one
grain; and to Nero, 340 stalks. The
soil fioniwhich this immense yield was
obtained would seem to have possessed a
remarkable quality, for Pliny says that
"when dry, the stoutest oxen cannot plow
it. but after rain, I have seen it opened
by a share, drawn by a wretched ass on
the one side and an old woman on the
other." A soil that "bakes" so hard as
this in dry weather could not have 'been
plowed very deep with such a team. Iu
Italy the crops seem to have been less
extraordinary 'though good, according to
Van.o the yield of wheat was from 21 to
31 bushels per acre.
When Rome was at her greatest height,
in the t : itne of the Clesars, the fanners
obtained almost fabulous prires for some
of tlo it )roductions. Vitrro informs us
th-t —f;rt, birds." such as thrushes, black
bir k, were sold at fifty cents each.
awl sometimes 5000 of them were sold
in a year from one farm.—[Farms were
geom.:lllV' small.] Pea fowls were sold
. _ -
at ;an egg tit 80 cents. A farm
sometimes produced as many, of these
fowls as to sell for $25,000. A pair of
fine doves were co nmonly of the same
price as a peacock, $7. If very pretty,
they were much higher, no less than $5O.
L. Anins, a Roman knight, refused to
sell a pair under $6-1.• The "chicken fe
ver- it seems did not o44nate in this
atfe and countt.v. Whether the Romans
hail any Shanghais daY's that
conld "eat corn off the top of a flour bar
rel. and stri •c over a sixteen inch plank
w;thout any exertion," we are not in
formed.
Woodward, in his "Essay towards a
Natural history of the Earth,") publish
ed in 1695, says, those who have written
de art' : combinatorie, reckon up no few
er than one hundred and seventy-nine
millions, one thousand and sixty differ
ent sorts of earth," Modern science in=
fornis us, indeed, 'that all agricultural
soils are composed 6f some foiirteen ele
ments, but these are so combined as to
form an almost infinite variety of soils,
of whose characteristics at the present
day, we can hardly claim to know any
thi or. The Romans were orally igno
rant. They characterised soil as. rich, or
por. fieeft stiff wet or dry. The best
soil they thought had a blackish color,
was gluttinous when wet, and friable
when dry ; exhaled and agreeable smell
when plowed, imbibed water readily, re
taining a sufficiency, and discharging
what was superfluous ; not injurious to
the plow irons by causing a salt rust;
freiinented by crows and other birds at
the time of plowing; and when at rest
speedily covered with A rich turf. A
free soil WOl3 always preferred.
The best situation for lands, according
to Colamella and Palladius, is "not s)
much on a level as to make the water
stagnate, nor so low as to be buried in
the bottom of a valley nor so exposed as
to feel the violence of storms and , heats;
for in these a mediocrity is always ~ best;
but champai7n land exposed; and whose
declivity affords the rains a frc e passage ;
'or a hill whose sides gently decline ; or
a valley not too much confined, and into
which the air has easy access; or a
mountain defended : by a higher top, and
thereby secured from the winds that are
most pernicious, or if high and rugged,
at the same time ooyered with trees and
grass. The situation of hinds which Ca
to reckons the.hest,.are at the foot of a
mountain with a southern exposure.
Pliny says that the best lands in Italy
are so situated.
Planting tree's to screen the hind from
the high winds which frequently pre
vailed, and for fruit, was recommended
by nearly all the Roman writers. Cato
says : "A land owner should apply him
self to the planting of his fields early
hislhuth;. but he ought to think long
before he builds. lie ought not to think
about planting; but he ought to do it.
When he is about thirty-Six yearSof age,
he may builcly provided his fields are
planted:" '
.Pliny gives the same advice..
"Men," ho 'says, "should plant in their
youth, and not build Mill their 'fields go
planted ; and even thou ought not to • ! •be
•in a hurry, but take time to ,eonsider.
I,t is:best, according to the proverb to
li alit by the folly of others." Many
-ouna American. farmers might follow
his advice of the old Roman with ad
antage Better plant a good orchard,
!nin build a fine house
The Romans paid much attention to
'le breeding, breaking, feeding and
Jorking of their cattle. "Bulls," says
'alladius, "should be tall, with huge
tembers, or a middle age, rather young
lan old, of a stern countenance
nail horns, a brawny and vast neck, and
confined belly." The cows Colamella
lost approves of are "a tall make, long,
.'ith very large belly, very broad head,
, -
yes black and open, horns graceful,
'moth, and black, hairy ears, straight
iws, very large dewlap and tail, and
.loderate hoofs and legs."
Breeders of horses mid cows, Virgil
observes, should attend principally to the
make of the female, who ought to be
large in all her parts.
