The Heading Times', and Despatch says: Ezra Z. Oriesomer and Bolomon DeTurck, two Oley furmer., have just returned from a trip to Lancaster county, whither they went to look into the new plan of cultivating wheat. The wheat is sown in rows four inches in width nnd eleven inches apart, giving suflleleiit room to run the cultivator through in the spring of the year, very ruuch like hoe-harrowing com. The cultivator is a simple arrangement which is attached to the drill and worked by two horses, who walk between the rows of wheat. The wheat is worked in this way Just as soon as the frost leaves the ground nnd afterwards about the twentieth of April again, when the clover nnd timothy are sown. The results of this new plan of cultivating wheat were 01 bushels and 15 pounds to the acre last year, and the promise the coming harvest is in every respect as bright. The straw is 6 to 6 feet 1 inch high, nnd the heads of wheat from 4 to ii inches in length. Mr. Grlesemer thinks that without any ex aggeration the yield of wheat will be forty-five bushels to the acre. The clover and timothy are also mentioned as very fine, being much better than when sown under the present way. The farm visited by Messrs. Griesemer and DeTurck is owned and worked by Levi W. GrofT, near Barevllle. Hilling up Potatoes. I think that hilling up, in the way it is practiced is, as a general rule, injur ious, excepting on very wet land. If land is cultivated properly, and to the right depth, I claim that the crop where no hilling up in the usual way is done, will be nearly double that hilled up, because those hilled up do not receive the proper amount of moisture. Should there be abundant rain to suit potatoes planted on the level, It would scarcely reach those In hills. Modern hills are built up as if to ward off all the water, leaving the poor potato to eke out an existence in n heap of dust. I have often wondered when opening out a hill, how the potatoes grew at all. My experience in potato growing is, that the proper way to plaut is on the level, and then after this is done, mulch the ground well with some manure, to save as much moisture as possible in the ground. Sometimes it is necessary to draw up a little earth where the tubers are pressing up through the ground, but I would only put on sufficient to cover. In drills, I would plant one good seed-eye every fifteen or eighteen inches, and in hills, two or three eyes at the most. As a general rule, I think potatoes are plant ed too thick, and too much seed put in the ground, and very frequently we find people reserving all the small trash of the pit or bin for seed, instead of usiug the medium sized potatoes. Corrcs2on. dent Country Gentleman. Toilet Soap. Drippings, which accumulate in al most every household, can be used for the grease. They should first lie boiled In water, and then left to cool; afterward they should be removed from the water and boiled alone until the water is ex pelled. The whiter the grease can be made, the better the soap will be made. The ingredients of the soap are six pounds of unpacked lime, four gallons of soft water, and one half-pound of borax. Boil the soda and lime in the water until they are dissolved ; let the mixture stand over night to settle ; pour off the clear lye, to which add the grease and pulverized borax, and boil to the consistency of honey. Take the mix ture from the stove, stir in one ounce of oil of sassafras or lavender, and pour it into a tub, or what is still b-tter, a tight, shallow box, .to cool, and when cold cut into bars and put on boards to dry. Korscs Feet. Few men who handle horses give proper attention to the feet aud legs. Especially is this the case on farms. Much time is spent of h morning in rubbing, brushing and smoothing the hair on the sides and hips; but at no time are the feet examined and proierly cared for. Now, lie it known that the feet of a horse require more care than the body,; They need ten times as much, for In one respect they are almost the entire horse. All tho grooming that can be done won't avail auythlng if the horse Is forced to stand where his feet will become disordered, and then the legs will get badly out of fix ; and with bad feet and bad legs there Is not much ee of the horse fit for anything. sue G LENA'S SULPHUR SO Al A STF.nt.IKOt IlKMEMT Poll PtSKAStCS AND Injuries of tub Ski!
