£gc<ttiUmral* From the Albany Cultivator. CULTURE OF THE PEA. This valuable crop has been unusually productive the past year, ami will to a con siderable extent supply thi place of the corn crop, which in many parts of the coun try has produced a partial failure. This illustrates the old remark that corn and peas rarely succeed well in the same sea son. The author of the “ British Hus bandry,” remark that “ few things can bo more uncertain than tho produce of the grain which seems entirely dependant upon circumstances regarding the state of the at mosphere at the time of blossoming, and with the precise nature of which we are unacquainted. In dripping or wet seasons, which are favorffWe to their growth, so much as 84 bushels cif Marlborough grey peas have been got from a single acre, though on good soils and in favorable sea sons, 30 bushels is considered a fair crop./’ To the great moisture, and coolness of the past season we may doubtless attribute the excellence of the pea crop, which in several instances has far exceeded al! that we have ever before known in this country. A young farming friend of ours had a crop that good judges estimated at 60 bushels per acre, but which unfortunately, in spite of every exertion to save it, was so damaged and wasted by the storms and long contin ued wet weather of September, all aecura cy as regards the quantity was out of the question. The ground was in corn the year before, and heavily manured. It was ploughed in the fall, orice in the spring sowed to peas of the Marrow-fat kind, and well rolled. But the greatest crop we believe on re cord, is the one grown by Mr. Wasson, of Leicester, Livingston co., as given in the N. G. Farmer of November. These were of the kind called the short pod English pea, sowed on ground used for corn 2 years previous, soil black and mucky, 3 bushels of seed to the acre, and the quantity grown on one acre, measured al the tim<- ofifirasti ;•*. —■* err ousbels and 8 quarts. The Pea, like corn, delights in a rich deep soit, as in these it suffers less from drougth than on any other ; and on such it is valuable as preparatory for wheat, a good crop smothering all weeds and leaving the soil clean and in good condition.— There is little use in attempting to grow the pea on poor or unmanured soils ; and those who, on such soils as these, follow the pea with wheat, are apt to have their labor for their pains. Peas, with corn or roots, form a good part in any relation, manure opera ting favorably upon them and they leaving the soil for a grain crop unexhausted. CAUSES OF IMPROVEMENT IN AG RICULTURE IN THE U. STATES. Extracts from the Report of the Commission er of Patents. HOME & FOREIGN MARKETS. Since we must either have a home or a foreign market for our surplus, we are driv en to the necesssity of so far upholding our own manufactures, and creating a greatly increased consumption, or we must seek to extend our foreign market. The discrimi nating duties, imposed by Great Britain in favor of the intercolonial trade in her own vessels, will continue to operate against the best competitors in foreign markets with our agricultural products, till the United States herself makes anew conventional arrangement based on terms of fuller ~or procitv. In the mean time it is a matter of no small a -“hcation that an outlet can be tiirough the British A merican--F*JV‘nces f° r several articles. .Indeed, so strong is the desire manifested by the commissioners in the mother coun try, that the laws are construed in the most liberal munner. Thus, wlijle the South has long enjoyed the priviledge of sending out her principal staple duty Tree, in con sequence of the desire of the British man ufacturers to obtain it, so now at seems pro bable that the other agriculturists of our country, in the NoiTi and Wjsst, may be enabled to forward [their wheal and other produce through tl/e colonies ala compar itively low rateot'dufr. From many countriVs we are nationally excluded by prohibitory duties. Spain, •or instance, levies ®',o on a barrel of flour in Cuba, From Malaga, where our imports exceed our exports seven times we are almost shut ou.. The list might be extended, but it is unnecessary. Could more reciprocal duties b e established, a new and lasting impulse vouid be given to the agricultural industry of the United States. The advocates o’ home industry and free trade unite in the lropriety of fair reciprocal arrangements, i’ conventional treaties are formed. Many, with long de layed hopes, are almost reacy to despair some fear an abandonment oi present em Couragcmcnt as incidentally g.ven to home industry by the revenue system. While aiming to avoid the discussion brany polit cal topics, or the protective tk iff, yet it seems not entirely proper to withhold any consoling remark which saves Yhe down cast agricturist from absolute despondency. Reason and philosophy may enkble him to endure the present if no tvorsl is to be dreaded. \ The following cheering voice i\ heard from the south sideofthe Potomac. After expressing a preference for free trade, ifit were practicable, it is said: “But we shall regard it as the height of folly to throw open our ports without restriction to other nations, 60 long as theirs are shut in our faces, and they continue to act upon a whol ly opposite policy. The practical states man, under such circumstances must lay bis abstract philosophy on a shelf, and work out his problems upon the actual theatre of human affairs. To buy in the cheapest market is a very plausible doctrine, but to him who is forced to sell in the cheap est market in order to reach it, the delusion is at once manifest. The great problem is, what constitutes, under all circumstances of selling as well as buying, in time to come as well as in time present, the most advantageous market to the Consumer.” The halcyon days of free irade, predicted by some, ought not to change efforts made with reference to the commercial policy of the world. Some new difficulties must be met, and some changes made, to accomo date ourselves to existing circumstance*. The reduction of the currency and the scar city of money will, of necessity reduce wages. Self-denial will take the place of self-gratification, and all possible economy will be studied. Proprietors of land and other productive property will rent on shares in preference to hiring for cash. All possible diversions of labor, too, will be made from pursuits which will produce a surplus which cannot find market; and whatever may be the abstract theories of burdens on the producer or the consumer, or what degree of protection amounts to prohibition, we may expect ere long an im proved domestic market. A demand a broad of a few hundred thousand bushels of breadstuffs is heralded as a happy event, but what comparison after all, will it bear to the million of consumers created by the diversion oflabor from present agrieultu ral pursuits, or manufacturing those arti cles wliieh are more to us than the pro duce of foreign labor. Let its listen to the wisdom of those whose opinions are record ed for our encouragement-—more especial ly since su-'.Ji opinions come from individu als who do ti>; sanction protection, except such as incidental iy arises from the raising of a revenue : “To be independent for the comforts of life, we must\fabrieate them ourselves. We must now place the manufacturer by the side of the The grand inquiry now is, s\all we make our own comforts, or go wi\out them at the will of a foreign nation? Ve, therefore, who is now against dornestiAnianufaeture must be for reducing us eith\ to dependence on that foreign nation, or t\be clothed in skins and to live like wild bWsts in dens and caverns. lam not one% those; experi ence has taught me that manufacturers are now as necessary to our impendence as comfort ” — Letter of T. JeffSwn to Ben jamin Austin, January, 1836. V “When our manufatureres arc An-.-own to a certain perfection, as they soonftjill be, under the fostering care of Government, the farmer will find a ready market fas his surplus produce, and what is of equal chn. sequence, a certain and cheap supply of aU he wants; his prosperity will diffuse itselV to every class of the community.”— Speech f of Hon. John C. Calhoun on the tariff. j “1 ask, what is the real situation of the 1 agriculturist? Where has the American farmer a market for his surplus produce? Except for cotton, he has neither a foreign nor a home market. Does not this clearly prove, when there is no market at home or abroad, that there is too much labor enw ployed in agriculture? Common sense at once points out the remedy. Take frerfif agriculture 600,000 men, women and phjTv dren, arid you will at once give a market for more breadstuff’s than all Europe, rfow: furnishes. In short, we have been too Jong subject to the policy of British merchants.! It is time we should become a little trwres Americanized, and, instead of feeding; the paupers and laborers of England, feed bur own; or else, in a short time, by continuing our present policy, we shall all be render ed paupers ourselves.”— A. Jackson to Dr Coleman, April 26, 1834. The present, too. ems the proper time for us to givo w this question of tiie dispQ sal'fuur immense surplus a thorough, calm, and deliberate investigation. • On the decision of it the prosperity of this great, country depends. It has been well said, that to “encourage the progress of agricul-t tural improvement is the only road'to: national wealth.” Our object shoiifiiAjot be so much to stimulate to larger produc tion, as to open the ways and means by which the husbandman shall have a mark et, and shall know how his labor and skill may be most availablfe. For this purpose,, he needs a yearly and more full survey of the crops, the markets, and prices, tiffin hie can now have. Thousands and millions’ of dollars are lost to our country by tin? miseinployment of productive industfy*- from tiie mere want of information,T’ind strange as it may appear, our own cbtHu try, extensive as it is, and devoted *5 ates its population to agriculture, is almost the only one among civilized nations where but little has been done by the national Legis lature for this great object. England and France, and Germany, and Russia, watch with deep interest in their national capaci ties, over their agricultural prosperity. The farmers and planters are beginning to feel the importance of more regard to their interests, especially in the way of furnish ing them with the means of knowledge. The return of the census every ten years is not itself sufficient. It may prove a starting point for each period, and one at which corrections may be made; but, from year to year, there should be imbodied the best results of investigation, carefully and thoroughly conducted. Something has in deed, been thus attempted, in these agri cultural statistics, subjoined to the report of the Commissioner of Patents, and many of our hard working husbandmen have ex pressed their sense of the benefit thus de rived, and their joy at even this care oftheir interests by the National Government; but this is not enough, or as much as ought to be done. In the language of one of our best agricultural journals, conducted by one who himself has held a seat in the halls of our National Legislature, and who therefore knows well what comparative neglect this subject has received— “We want a system of national legis lation for this purpose that shall be effectu al to collect periodically', in every state of pur Union, and concentrate to one point, at the seat of the National Government, precise, accurate, authentic, and official statistical information upon all the annual results of the husbandman’s industry— showing to every body at all times, as near as human watohfulness can, upon a scale so extended, all the elements of both the demand and the supply of every article of produce that enters into our markets. With information of this description, pub lished and disseminated through the land by Congress, with only half tho profusion that partisan documents are spread by each and every party, an entire revolution in the condition and productiveness of the husbandman’s labor would be effected. There would be system, certainty and con fidence, pervading the outluysand the in come of the husbandman.” A single establishment in Ohio manufac tures silk to the amount of one thousand dollars per month, and advertises to pay four dollars a bushel for all the cocoons which may be offered.
