From llic S. C. Temperance Advocate.
OBis KRVAT lON S ON ‘['HE MAN
AGEMENT OF WHEAT:
BY JUDGE.o’NEALL.
To the Newberry Agricultural Society :
In discharge of the duty assigned to me,
with other members, at the last meeting ot
the Agricultural Society, 1 will, as well as
I am able, put you in possession of all the
information which 1 possess, on the subject
of wheat. 1 have now for twenty-one years
annually sowed a crop of wheat, and 1
have uniformly made some, although in two
years that some was very little and very
indifferent. Yet, on the whole 1 have gen
erally made enough for the use of my fam
ily, and I am persuaded that there are few
farmers, who cannot do as well, and many
who can do abundantly better.
The attention should be first directed to
the selection of seed. It is an old saying,
that “ a change from sand is no change at
all,” by which is meant, when you change
your seed wheat, do not take from a sandy
soil. A strong clay soil gives the best va- j
rieties of wheat. For our climate, wheat
from the North or West does not answer
well: it is generally too late, and is more
liable to the rust. If we could obtain wheat
from the parallels of latitude in the old
world, corresponding with ours, 1 think it
would succeed admirably, trio too, wheat
from the South and South-West of our own
continent, will do well, and hence I have
no doubt that the variety of Texian wheat
introduced among us by our estimable cit
izen, and enterprising and skilful farmer,
John Wilson, will succeed admirably. Os j
our own varieties, none have answered so
well with me, as that which is known by
the name of the Holland Wheat. It is a
small vellow grain, and weighs uniformly I
sixty pounds, and upwards to the bushel. I
It ripens about a week earlier than our com
mon winter wheat, and will stand longer
after it is ripe. As it ripens, the field ex- [
liibits a most beautiful yellow golden an-j
pearance : looking, as it is gently moved lit’
the wind, like a sea of molten gold. It is!
not as liable to rust, blight or smut. I ob- 1
tabled it from John Holland, of Lawreus, j
in the year 1833, when the wheat of the up- :
per country, was entirely blighted and des
troyed. He made from twenty acres, two
hundred bushelsofnicely cleaned merchan- ;
table wheat. I have sowed it every year
.since. This year, and 1839, it was slight
ly touched by the rust, bnt not so as to in
jure it: in 1839, I found a little smut in it, :
but not enough to compel us to wash it.
The seed ought not only to be selected :
from a good variety', but it should ba well j
prepared for being sown. In the Ist place, it !
.should be thoroughly dried by the sun before j
it is put up lor seed ; this prevents woa
vels, and gives sound and healthy grains
for vegetation. In the next place, sift the j
seed carefully with a good sand sieve : this j
will take out all the small immature grains, j
In the third place, for twenty-hours before j
y r ou sow it soak your seed in a preparation j
of water saturated with about one pound of |
blue stone to every five bushels of wheat, j
Before you take out your seed wheat, I
which will be found at the bottom of the j
cask or tub, in which you soke it, skim oil';
the floating grains and trash. When I have j
pursued this course, which was reeommen- j
ded to me by my friend, John S. Carwilc, 1 |
have escaped the smut. At least a bushel j
of seed should bo sown to the acre. When i
the ground is good, from one and a quarter !
to one and a halfbushels may be sown.—
Wheat thus sown will make a greater yield
and is not so liable to rust. This idea, 1
remember was suggested many years ago,
by Mr. North, to the Farmer’s Society of
Pendleton, and was enforced by such rea
sons, as induced me to yield my assent to
it fully. I wish that by some means, the
Agricultural community could again have
the opportunity of reading that valuable
practical essay.
More attention, I know, ought to be be
stowed on the ground on which wheat is
sown, than we generally do. Fallow land
is best for wheat. Ifit is well broken up,
and the wheat well put in with a shovel
plough, and the ground made level and
smooth with a barrow or roller, I think we
should hear little complaint of the Hessian
fly'. Few will however, for the present,
take so much pains. Our Society is inten
ded to encourage improvement, and I hope
someone will try this suggestion.
Wheat ought to be sown on clay soil, and
never later than the first or second week in
October: still earlier would, I think be bet
ter. Twenty bushels ofCotton seed to eve
ry acre will give to the crop a fine healthy,
and vigorous state. I incline to think that
a top dressing about the first of March, of
about five bushels to the acre of slacked
ashes would greatly improve the crop. I
have never tried it on wheat, but I know
that it is great benefit to cultivated grasses.
The crop of wheat ought to be cut before
it is dead ripe: it should stand two or three
days in the field, in small shocks. If the
weather is dry, it may then be housed safe
ly. As soon as the crop is laid by, (about
the middle of July,) the wheat should be
thrashed out, cleaned, and well sunned
One day’s sun is scarcely ever sufficient.
Two successive days is generally enough.
I take it up and put it away while hot from
the sun ; ill the course of a few days after
wards I commence to grind. In this wav 1
my flour at the end of a year is just as good !
as it was on the day it was ground. Good
(lour can only’ be expected from good wheat
in good condition. When that is the case
a good mill, with good cloths, and a skilful
miller, can make as good flour here, as can
be made anywhere. Many persons ruin
their flour bv desiring to have more than
can be mad \ My falhor, whose long expe
rience and skill in the rnanufuetureol flour
is well known,states thut the followingought
to be the results ofu well ground bushel of
wheat weighing sixty pounds. One-tenth
six lbs. must be deducted for toll, one-sixth
! ten lbs. for bran—nine pounds for midd
lings and shorts, which will make an aggre
[ gate of twenty-five pounds, leaving thirty
| five pounds of flour. From which it ap
! pears, that a little less than six bushels, (say
i five and a half,) will make a barrel of Hour
j weighing one hundred and ninety-two
I pounds neat.

PROPOSALS
FOE PUBLISHING BY SUBSCRIPTION
.V FULL REPORT OF THE i
GEOLOGICAL & ABBICCLIUKAL
SURVEY or THF
©IF €?[E®[^©Q^u
rgl I IE Legislature, at their last session, deem- !
i cd it expedient to discontinue tiie salary ot j
fiie State Geologist, in consequence of the em
barrassed finances ot the Slate. By this unex
pected movement, the subscriber is deprived ol
tiie means of completing the survey of the State,
mi the original plan: if done at all, it must be
at individual risk and exj cure.
It is needless, perhaps, to represent to the cn
j lightened citizens ol Georgia, that by following
| out the plan so happily commenced in 1837, and
■ pursued with unremitting energy to the present,
! the State has been contributing her mite, hum- !
i bie as it may be on tiie part of tier agent, to tiie I
I cause of general .science in our country, andthe <
i advancement of intellectual improvement among |
! her citizens, in accordance with other States oi i
i the Union. There is but one alternative, lntlie j
! present situation of the survey, the work must
either be abandoned and the important informa- I
tion obtained by four years investigation of the
Geology of the" State, lost to her citizens, or the j
subscriber must depend tor support, on iudivid- j
ual patronage. He is determined to make an el- j
fort tor the benefit and honor ot his adopted State, j
to proceed with the survey. From former ex- I
perience of the unbounded liberality and gene
rous hospitality of his fellow citizens, in differ
ent parts of tiie State, he is confident that, in
making an appeal to their sympathy and patron
age. it will not be made in vain.
That a complete survey may be made, of the re-
I maining counties of the State, and the whole j
I consolidated and published for the information j
land benefit of the citizens, public patronage is j
j most respectfully solicited. A work of this kind, i
j is much needed in Georgia, a State comprising j
I an area of sixty thousand sqtiare miles, being
destitute of a single correct Map, Geography, or
history of the same. A majority of the citizens
J must, from necessity, be unacquainted with the
j rich mineral resources and agricultural capaci-
I ties of the different sections. Favored as the
| subscriber lias been, by four years labor, as
j State Geologist, in different parts of the State,
in collecting materials for a complete report of
an Agricultural and Geological survey and Na
tural History, he trusts that he shall be able to
meet (lie approbation of his fellow citizens.
The subscriber pledges his honor, that the
proceeds arising from subscription for the work
shall be appropriated to the completion of the
survey of the remaining counties of the State,
and that they shall be finished as they will be
needed for publication.

PROSPECTUS.
* encouraged by the generous patronage and
hearty approval which has been extended to the.r
Daily paper since its establishment, and which
has already rendered it the second in point of cir
culation in fiie city, propose to publish, on and
after the 18th day of September, a Weekly edi
tion, on a sheet of mammoth size, excluding all
matter of local or transitory interest, and calcu
lated mainly for Country circulation.
Tiie Tribune —whether in its Daily or Week
ly edition—will be what its name imports—an
unflinching supporter of the People’s Rights and
j Interests, in stern hostility to tiie errors of super
; ficial theorists, the influences of unjust and irn
| perfect legislation, and the schemes and sophis-
I tries of self-seeking demagogues. It will stren
uously advocate the Protection of American
Industry against the grasping and to us blight
ing policy of European Governments, and the un
equal competition which they force upon us, as
also against the present depressing system of
State Prison Labor ; it will advocate the resto
ration of a sound and uniform National Cur
rency ; and urge a discreet but determined pro
secution of Internal Improvement. The Re
; trenchment, wherever practicable, of Govern
: ment Expenditures and of Executive Patronage,
will be zealously urged. In short, this paper
will faithfully maintain and earnestly advocate
the Principles and Measures whicli the People
approved in devolving on Whig Statesmen the
conduct of their Government.
But a small portion, however, of its columns
will be devoted to purely Political discussions.
The proceedings of Congress will be carefully
recorded; the Foreign and Domestic Intelligence
early and lucidly presented ; and whatever shall
appear calculated to promote Morality, maintain
Social Order, extend the blessings of Education,
or in any way subserve the great cause of Hu
man Progress to ultimate Virtue, Liberty and
Happiness, will find a place in our columns.
The Weekly Tribune will be published eve
ry Saturday morning in Quarto form on a very
large imperial sheet, (31 by 42 inches,) and af
forded to Subscribers at TWO DOLLARS a
year. Six copies will be forwarded a year for
Ten Dollars, Ten copies for Fifteen Dollars, and
any larger number in the latter proportion. Pay
ment in advance will be invariably required, and
the paper stopped whenever the term of such
payment expires. Subscriptions are respectfully
solicited by
