Hints in Regard to the Corn
Crop.
The following remarks from the pen of Judge
Buell on the Corn culture we recommend to the
attention of onr fareaCis. Judge Buell is a good
farmer in the Seld and with tha plough, as well as
in the closet and with the pen. He cultivates a
small farm of about GO acres, within three miles
from Alhany;of land originally so poor that pro
bably
there is not a respectable termer in Licking
County who would have taken it as a gift, and
occupied it. It is a part of what is usually called
the pine bartens,in that country. Yet by skilfully
applying manures adapted to the soil,and with like
skill cultivating his crops he makes it ono of the
most profitable and productive farms in the Union.
The practical advice of such a farmer we present
to our readers, and if they doubt its utility, let
them try the experiment on a small scale, and test
for themselves whether his mode is worth pursu
ing,
PRESERVATION OF SEED.-0111 practice
is to turn upon the seed, the evening before
planting, water nearly in a boiling stale.—
This thoroughly saturates the seed, induces
an incipient crermination,and causes the corn
to sprout quick. The next morning we take
half a pint of tar for half a bushel of seed,
put it into an iron vessel with water and
heat it till the tar is dissolved, and the Ii•
quid becomes tar water. It is then turned
upon the seed, and well stirred. It adheres
to the grain and gibes it a thin transparent
coating. The tar serves a double purpose;
it prevents an excess of moisture from enter
ing and rotting the seed, if the weather or
soil are cold and wet, and it preserves it
from the depredations of birds, &c. which
prey upon it. After the seed is taken from
the steep, where we never leave it more than
15 hours, as much ground gypsum in mixed
with it will adhere to the kernels. The
gypsum prevents the kernels from adhering
to each other, and favors the after growth
of the crop. Ashes or lime may be substi
tuted for nypsum. The seed should be plan.
ted while it is moist, and immediately cov
ered. It should not be long exposed to the
ARM
DISTANCE IN PLANITNO.—This must de
pend upon the variety cultivated, and the
richness of the soil. The Dutton or dwarf
growth, and upon well manured ground may
be planted at three feet eaeh way, or three
by two and a half. Southern corn,and some
old varieties in the north grow taller and
require more room. Asa certain quantum
of food is required to bring each stork to
maturity, poorly manured ground cannot
feed so many stocks as that which is highly
manured.
QUANTITY OF SEED AM) COVEEING.—From
using too little seed and recklessness in coy
ering it, many corn fields are deficient one
half of which ought to grow upon them.—
We drop six or eight kernels in a hill and
take special care to have it covered only
with fine mould, if dung, sods, sticks or
stones are placed upon the hill, it partially
or wholly prevents the plants coming. If
buried too deep. the seed may rot before the
soil is warns enough to produce germination;
if too shallow it may lack moisture. These
are little matters though they have a great
influence upon the profits of the crop. The
extra expense that would have incurred to
do these things perfect,might be four quarts
of seed and one day's labor to the acre—and
the advantages would often be doubling of
the crop. Two inches is a sufficient cover
ing, if the hill is trodden upon, as it should
be by the planter. to compress the earth and
preserve its moisture.
Arrmt Crurtrnu.—ln this the plough
should not be used if the corn harrow and
cultivator can be bad, and if used should not
be suffered to penetrate the soil more than
two or three inches. The plough tears up
the roots, turns up and wastes the manure,
and increases the injuries of drought. The
main object is to extirpate weeds and to keep
the surface open and mellow, that the heat,
air and moisture may exert the better their
kind influences upon the vegetable matter in
the soil, in converting it into nutriment for
the crop. At the first dressing with the hoe,
the plants are reduced to 4 or three in a
hill. At the second dressing, a like process
is observed, taking care that the earthing
should not exceed one inch and a half, that
the hill be broad and flat, and that the earth
for this purpose he not taken from one place,
but gathered from the surface between the
rows where it has been loosened by the culti
vator.
lianvEsrEcc.—The crop should be cut at
the ground as soon as the grain is glazed or
as soon as it will do to top, and without be
ing laid on the ground, set immediately in
sacks. There are four substantial reasons
for adopting this mode of harvesting. It
secures the crop from the destructive effects
of frost; it quadruples the value of fodder, it
clears the ground early for a fall crop, and
ft saves labor, in harvesting; and we may
Add a fifth, it makes a better crop of grain,
under any contingency than when it is top.
ped in the old way. We are confident of
thislast fact. The grain continues to profit
by the unelaborated sap below the ear in the
topped cow. •
ZElttamac 4 CRIBBING —The ears should
be gadiered/i . r),Ti the stocks, and the latter
f riaekeit su/soon as they have become sufli•
ciendy dry and cured, as unnecessar ex•
pusure to the weather is prejudicial both to
grain and Runge. From two to three weeks
generally suffice to eff-ct these objects.—
The corn may bo picked offend carried to
the born, and it should be husked within 24
or 38 boors thereafter and before the least
beat is perceptible in the pile, and the stocks
bound and placed in small stacks so as to ex
pose all the buts, which have become satura
ted ivitli'moisture by standing on the ground,
to the drying influence of the sun and winds
—rind the stacks topped, or covered with
straw so as to shed.rain. After a fortnight
or so, they may be carried in a dry state to
the barn. When picking the corn from the
stalks the best seed ears should be selected
and hung in an airy loft. The corn should
he exposed after being husked,upon the barn
floor, to the drying influence of the winds,
and it may require to be turned over and
stirred, till the cob is thoroughly dried. If
this is wet, cribbed fermentation may ensue,
or a frost may follow sufficient to conjeal the
moisture in the cob, either of which will
impair the quality of the grain, and destroy
its germinating principle.
IN SORTING TIM GRAIN, We make three
parcels, viz. sound corn for the crib, pig
corn, embracing the ripened but defected
ears, and the truly soft and smutty ears,
which are not husked, but thrown by for im
mediate use. The silk and husks are carp •
fully separated from the two first pareels,as
they imbibe moisture, induce mouldiness,
and atThrd building materials for mice. We
also separate the grainless tips and stems,
of that we place in the cribs, for the like
ressons,and to preserve the grain in a sound
bright condition.
THE FORAGE from the corn crop, when
saved in the manner we have directed, is an
excellent fodder for neat cattle, if cut for
feeding out. We have used it in this way,
exclusive of hay, for two years, and find it
answers all the purpose of hay. Our prac•
Lice is to cut a quantity, to mix with it bran
or roots, cut tip, when we have them, and to
sprinkle the mass with brine, and to feed in
mangers.
A BSENCE OY Mixn.—We lately read of a man,
(says the New York American,) who,from absence
of mind, put his candlestick to bed, and blew him-
self out; but the following, from a respectable
source, is more astonishing:
Mr. Edi'or—Ono of the most remarka•
ble cases of absence of mind occurred in our
neighborhood last night, that I ever heard
of. Mr. F. and his wife, about retiring for
the night, pat the shovel and tongs into bed,
and, covering them up warmly,stood them
selves against the jambs of the fireplace,
and didn't perceive the difference, till the
tongs called the shovel "my dear."
Yours truly, SAIVI'L. W-.
A GOOD RETORT.—Lyne Stephens was
wending his way, a short time ago. through
some narrow passage, when he met a pretty
modest girl.
"Pray, my dear," said he, "what do you
call this passage?"
"Etalaam's passage," replied the girl.
"Al), then," continued the puppy, "I am
like Baleam—slopped by an angel."
"And I," rejoined the girl, as she pushed
past him, "nm like the angel—stopped by
an ass!"
A YANKEE OUTWITTED.—An Irishman
just from the sod,was asked by a wag whom
he met at an oyster house, what news he
brought with him from the old country.
"Devil a word at all," said Paddy, "have
you any yourself worth relating?"
"Yes," said the Yankee, "I see the devil
is dead, at least so says this morning's pa.
Kir."
"Are you sure of it!" said the Irishman.
"Just as sure of it, Paddy, as that pota
toes grow well in . lreland,or that a Connecti
cut pedlar is the cutest on a trade in the
state."
"I pity you, and I'll give you what I can
spare," said the Irishman, handing him a
copper.
"What is that for?" said the downeaster
"For charity," said Pat; "it is customary
vheuever the father of a child dies to give
he orphan something!"

PATENT PUMPS,
To bring Water up hills, &c. &c.
I HAVE obtained a Patent Right for a
Suction and Propelling Pump and Pipes,
and am now prepared to put them up in
Washington county, 111d.,rind Franklin,Bed
ford and Adams counties, Penn. By this
pump Water can be conveyed from Springs
up hills,ns well as up wells. The Pump may
be placed in any part of the house most con
venient, and while it serves to supply water
for family use,it may be constructed to raise
water into any part of the house in case of
fire. And, by the bye, how many houses
have been burnt for want of a few buckets
of water at the commencement of a fire, be-'
fore water could be conveyed to the upper
part of the building. By this means,a pipe
may be placed to convey water to the top of
a house in a few seconds; a cistern may be
placed in an upper room, out of which all the
other rooms may be supplied with water. It
will also answer to. raise water for a shower.
Bath, so that the person bathing may supply
himself with water. Farmers may have a
pump placed in any part of their stables or
barn-yards—four or five families may have
water out of ono well, each house a pump in
their own yard, &c. &c. In order that there
need be no fears upon the subject,[ will war
rant all I put up to answer the purpose con
tracted for, provided the purchaser will at
tend to the directions given. I also except
carelessness and accident. But if it will not
answer according to contract, I shall make
no charge whatever, so that there can be no
risk in trying .it. The pump can be made
so as not to be injured by frost. An occular
demonstration of its utility con be had by
calling on the gentlemen whose certificates
follow. JOHN DENIG.
Ido hereby Certify,That I have one of John Den ig's
Patent Pumps in use, by which the water is brought
from a spring up a hill 168 feet,from 20 to 25 feet fall.
It answers the purpose well, and knowing the incon

to all who have to fetch their water up hills from
springs. It ivill save much fatigue and inconvenience,
especially in cold and wet weather,
