Whoever can make two cars of corn, or two
blades of grass grow upon a spot of ground
where only one grew before, deserves better
of mankind, and does more essential service to
his country, than the whole race of politicians
put together. Dean Swift.
INJURIOUS EFFECTS OF WEEDS.
The question has been asked, how it
was possible for China and Japan, with the
ordinary products of agriculture, to furnish
bread for a population, equaling, according
to the latest census, about 300 persons to a
square mile. The answer is to be found
in the care with which every foot of
ground is cultivated —in the fact, that few
animals are kept, either for labor or food;
and more, perhaps, than any thing else, in
the entire freedom of the crops from every
thing that cun reduce their quantity or
quality. Not a weed of any kind is to be
“found in the fields, and the most positive
“enactments, and most assiduous attentions,
are directed to keeping the country free
from them.
Few are aware how much weeds, or
grasses growing in a grain crop, detract
from its value, by lessening the product.
A vigorous root of charlock or thistle, will
draw from the earth the nutriment that
would have given fullness to half a dozen
ears of wheat; and where these, or other
foreign substance, is permitted in a grow
ing crop, that is sure to suffer in proportion
to the quantity of the foul material present.
Weeds injure a crop, in two ways, by the
room they occupy, to the exclusion of the
valuable plants, and by the nutriment of
which they rob the growing crop. We
have seen fields in which the wheat main
tained a dubious struggle with the red rot,
charlock, or thistle; and where the stem
and the ear both showed how much they
needed to be relieved from such crowding
and unwelcome neighbors. On the best
cultivated farms of England or Belgium,
not a plant or weed of any description can
be found in a growing crop ; and in some
years the Earl of Leicester has offered a
reward, but without success, for any weed
that could be found in hundreds of acres of
his turnips, or his wheat.
In this country,but few experiments have
been made to show the difference of pro
duct between clean and foul fields, but sev
eral are recorded in Sinclair’s “ Code of
Agriculture;” some of which we shall
give, to call the attention of farmers to this
point, and show that the labor expended in
cleared fields or crops from weeds, is far
from being lost, as many would seem, from
their negligence in the matter, to suppose.
“1. Wheat. —Seven acres of light
gravelly land were fallowed, and sown
broadcast; one acre was measured off,
and not a weed was pulled out of it—the
other six were carefully weeded. The
unweeded acre produced 18 bushels ; the
six weeded acres 135 bushels, or 22$
bushels per acre ; which is 4$ bushels, or
one-fourth of the whole, in favor of weed
ing.
2. Barley. —A six acre field was
sown with barley, in fine tilth, and well
manured. Theweeding, owing to a great
abundance of charlock, cost 12s. per acre.
The produce of an unweeded acre, was
only 13 bushels; of the weeded, 28. Dif
ference in favor of the weeding, 15 bushels
per acre, besides the land being so much
cleaner for succeeding crops.
“3. Oats Six acres were sown with
oats ; one acre ploughed but once and un
manured, produced only 17 bushels. An
other six acres ploughed three times, and
weeded, produced 37 bushels per acre.
This experiment proves that oats require
good management, and will pay for it, as
well as other crops. Ten bushels of the
increased produce may bo fairly attributed
to the weeding, and the other ten to the
manure.”
It is admitted that the labor and expense
of weeding a crop, is considerable; but if
the difference lie such as here stated, and
there is no reason to doubt it, as it is
abundantly corroborated by other experi
ments, then it should bo more generally
and promptly attended to than it is. If our
farmers could raise 4$ bushels of wheat,
15 of barley, or 10 of oats, additional to
their usual crop per acre, the effect would
at once be felt in every department of labor
in our country.
No one can travel through our country
before harvest time without being con
vinced that millions of acres might have
their products increased in as great a ratio
as the above, by the entire freedom from
weeds.
Farmers would be gratified could they
have their lands tax free ; but experience
shows, that to have them weed free, would
be of far greater importance to them.
[New York Cultivator.]
OVER-CROPPING.
Our farmers must cease over-cropping
themselves if they would improve their
husbandry ; —that is, they must cultivate
less land, and do it better. This is an
error which many have fallen into, and we
most earnestly desire to see it corrected.
It is the worst kind of policy, and mark of
a poor farmer. Many persons presume
the more land they cultivate, the greater
the produce will be —it may be so in some
instances, but in many cases the same
amount of produce might be made on one
third or one-fourth less space, and time
given the farmer lor observation, und con
sequently for improvement in his mode of
tillage. No one can take time to make
observations in his business, if he be al
ways three weeks or a month behind by
having too much on his hands. To get
along, and keep in sight of where he should
be, every thing like order or system is dis
pensed with. The ground in such cases,
is often ploughed too wet, the crop spoiled,
and the land greatly injured- Now every
practical man knows that this is literally
true with respect to over-cropping, and we
think it will apply to too many farmers of
Tennessee. We repeal, the farmer who
raises the heaviest crop per acre, and the
aggregate amount, does not always culti
vate the most land —but, desirous to im
prove his practice, and increase his product
in the right way, he curtails his amount of
land, and doubles the labor upon the re
mainder ; whereby he not only has a better
crop, but his landsare brought into a much
better state of cultivation.
A remedy for the evil arising from over
cropping, exists with our agricultural so
cieties. Let them offer liberal premiums
for the best crop on given qualities of
land, and for the best system of practice,
and then we shall see vast improvements
made in our modes of farming.
[Southern Cultivator.]
Worth Trying —A yoek of an egg,
and a little sweet oil, mixed in a glass of
port wine, taken three times a day, will
afford speedy relief to persons suffering
from the dysentery.
Sick Headache. —This is a disease
with which some people are terribly afflict
ed—and a hint on this subject may be use
ful. Dr. Uubcll, of New York, in a letter
to Dr. Alcott, of the city of Boston, says:
“ Not a case of the sick headache has
ever occurred within my knowledge, ex
cept with the drinkers of tea and coffee ;
and not a case has failed ofbeing cured on
the entire renunciation of them.
Bleeding at the nose, it is said, if it be
ever so violent and protracted, may be per
manently stopped by the individual using
some salt beef, which has been grated fine
with a grater, in the same way that he
would take snuff. Two or three pinches
are said to be sufficient to stop any fit of
bleeding.
The perfume of any of the essen
tial oils, or the effluvia of dried plants
from which they are extracted, will drive
away or prevent the approach of moths.
Wormwood, lavender, walnut leaves, rue,
or black pepper, in grains or pulverized,
placed in contact with woolens or furs will
protect them from the ravages of these de
structive intruders. Whatever remedy is
resorted to, ought to be applied early in
the season, before the moths begin to de
posit their eggs.
Recent trials have established that the
plant known to botanists as the “ Pologo
num punctatum,” commonly called “ Wa
ter pepper” or “ Smart weed,” and which
may be found in great abundance along
ditches, roads, lanes, and barn yards, is an
effectual and certain destroyer of the bed
bug. It is said to exercise the same poi
sonous effect on the flea.
A strong decoction is made of the herb,
and the places infested with the insect are
carefully washed therewith. The plant
may also, with much advantage, be strown
about the room
The red beet generally appears on our
table in an acid and cold form, as a
pickle only ; whereas, ifour female friends
would take the matter in hand, we doubt
not but that it may be prepared in a variety
of ways; superior to any garden production
which we possess —as it is abundantly and
easily cultivated, and kept in a state of
perfect freshness during the whole year.
By a recent trial it has been found that pies
may be made of it, which are equal if not
superior to rhubarb. Either from the
leaves, the same as rhubarb, or from the
root; by cutting it into small square
pieces—vinegar and sugar, “and other
spices, if lik’d,” can be added to suit any
palate, while it possesses the advantage of
furnishing us with a delicate and beautiful
pie, and which can grace our tables at any
season of the year.
Caution to Pen Suckers. —The blue ink
now in use, has sufficient prussic acid in a
single drop, if uncombined, to produce
death. So young ladies who are writing
“ billet doux” with “ true blue” ink, must
be careful not to put the pen in the mouths
while they arc thinking of their sweet
heaits.
The census taker of an adjoining county
called at the house of one of the sovereigns,
and asked the usual questions’ about soap,
chickens, <f-c. The countryman had all his
fowls drove up into the yard, and while they
were counting them, he saw the census taker
east his eye at some bee-hives close by, when
he stammered out—“ See here, Mr. Senses
man., ifyou want to know how many bees I’ve
got, (you may go and count them, for I’ll bp
hanged if I do it.”

PROSPECTUS of a New Work to be en
titled
a m ® J3 cna
ILLUSTRATED,
In a Series of original Pictures, on Steel;
with letter-press descriptions.
The plan of publishing in successive num
bers, pictorial works, illustrative of the scenery
of countries, lias long been a popular one in
Europe, and is rapidly gaining favor in our own
country,
The proposition to issue such a Work, de
voted to the scenery of Georgia, although no
vel, will, undoubtedly, find universal favor,
and be regarded as it is by the editor, a plan
at once felicitous and feasible. There is
much scenery in our State, that is not sur
passed in beauty and sublimity, by that of any
other State in the Union. The upper coun
ties abound in scenes, which need only to be
known to command the admiration of all who
love the beauties of nature. Much of the
scenery of the North is inferior to our own, but
is yet visited by thousands, simply because it
has been written, sung, and “ lionized by
authors and travellers, until its beauty has be
come universally known and appreciated. It
is desirable that attention should be directed
to our own resources of the picturesque in na
tural scenery, and when this is done, our own
and Northern Tourists will speedily render
our beautiful views as immortal as our lan
guage.
The South is charged with general indiffer
ence to the progress of Literature and the
Fine Arts; and probably the strongest founda
tion for the charges is found in her inaction in
enterprises calculated to foster these objeeta.
The publication of the proposed Work will, it
is believed, be an effective blow at this founda
tion, and a step towards the establishment of
our literary reputation, to which end much ho
norable effort is now directed.
A third consideration, and the last which
will now be urged, is the intrinsic value of
such a publication as GEORGIA IL
LUSTRATE D. It will embody the re
presentations of the beautiful and sublime in
our State scenery, and afford to all, at a
trifling expense, exact pictures of our Moun
tains, V&llies, Cataracts, Public Buildings,
&c., which they may or otherwise
behold, but which, in either case, would afford
peculiar pleasure.
The proposed Work will lie executed in a
style superior to any similar Pictorial Work in
the country. The plates will be executed on
steel, by eminent engravers, from original
drawings, made expressly for the purpose, by
Mr. T. Addison Richards, of Augusta. The
Engravings will be accompanied with letter
press descriptions, prepared for the Work, and
in this department the editor will secure, as
far as possible, the assistance and co-operation
of our best writers. In short, no pains will be
spared to make the work a perfect gem of its
kind, to the end that it may meet a welcome
reception not only at home but also abroad.
CONDITIONS.
I. GEORGIA ILLUSTRATED, will be
issued in Monthly Parts, in the quarto form,
