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.”
