Rend before the Newbury Agricultural So
ciety-, al it Anniversary Sft ng, July 27,
1842, by Hattheic Hall.
As it has fit!i•: n to mv lot to offer u few
impel'feo! remarks upon this all-important
branch of industry, I shall commence with
Onions, as tlie scud is the first thing that
should bo sown in the garden in the fall
season. Have your bed well manured
- vith well roiled stable manure; then plough
s ip the bed deep and close; otherwise, spade
up, rake and level the bed. Then take
•a small sprouting hoe, and open a smalt
trench (or furrow) about one inch deep, and
about eighteen inches apart, then drill your
seed thin. When done, cover it with a gar
den rake about half an inch deep. These
seed should be sown as early as the month
of September or October. The ensuing
spring, when the plants are well up, take a
sprouting hoe. and cut square across the
drill, as though you were thinning cotton
the first time. As they grow up, they
should be thinned out by degrees, until you
have thinned out to one stalk, (or onion.)
When they get to be about one inch in di
ameter, the dirt or earth should be careful
ly scraped away from them, and be kept
free from all weeds and grass. Should a
ny of them incline to go to seed, the buds
should be nipped out. 15v rids method von
may ra : se as fine large onions from the
seed, as you can from the plants, and of de
cidedly a better quality. Those who pre
fer raising onions from the plants, (or as
they are commonly termed, seed onions,)
should, after preparing their garden as be
fore mentioned, [dam them six or seven in
ches apart, and the rows should be from
twenty to twenty-two inches wide. This
should be done about the last of December
or the first of January. They should be
managed in every respect like those which
grow front the seed, and as they begin to
bud for seed, the bud should be taken out,
except such as you wish for seed. After
the Onions have matured, the top will gen
erally fall down ; then they should be dug
anrTler'iVrrtwo or three days in the sun ;
they then should be gathered and spread
thin on a dirt floor, taking care to examine
and pick out those which may rot. Let
them have air plenty.
Early cabbage seed should be sown in
the first of January, in rich, loose soil. I
have often found that burning a brush heap,
on good, strong, sandy land, answers the
purpose extremely well. Then dig up the
ground deep with a mattock, or sprouting
hoe, rake and level your bed smooth. Then
sow your seed, and cover them as shallow
as possible. This is the time of year to be
gin <0 prepare our gardens. It now should
be broken up very deep with a plough.—
Then cover your beds well with manure
from the stable, and break it up again.—
Where the stable lias been well and regu
larly replenished with leaves, the manure
is much the best; and the reason is obvi
ous, because it is not so burning to vegeta
bles. Cabbage plants should be transplan
ted as early in March as possible. Ear
ly York Cabbage should be planted two
feet apart each way in rows. Drumhead,
or Mountain White, should be planted at
least three feet apart; as soon as they com
mence growing, they should be neatly
ploughed. This Ido by hitching in a strong
hand to a small plough stock, with a small
scoup (or scooter) on it ; they then should
be neatly hoed over. The garden should
be ploughed and hoed at least every two
weeks, and suffer neither weeds, grass nor
pursley, to infest your cabbage. For late
cabbage, the seed should be sown about the
middle of June.
English Reas should be planted in Jan
uary or the first of February, in rows about
3£ feet apart, and in the drill from 10 to 12
inches apart. As soon as they are up,
plough and hoe them neatly. When they
are about six inches high, they should have
a stick by the side of every hill. To en
sure a good stand, there should be planted
four or five peasitt every hill, cover them
about one inch deep, and when properly
up thin them to two stalks. These peas
make a fine show early in the spring, but if
we wish to have the benefit of peas, plant
the bunch or dwarf pea in the same man
ner. Attend them well with the plough and
hoe, and they will yield more abundantly.
Peppers should bo sown in the first of
April, in drills. When properly up, thin
to stand about 10 or 12 inches apart, lea
ving one or two stalks in a place.
Mustard, for winter us, may be sowed in
the fetter part of August, or first of Sep
tember, in drills about 18 inches apart, cov
eredvery lightly. The bed on which it is
sown, should pseviously be made very rich.
As soon as it is up, thin it out so as to let
’ every plant have three or four inches space
between them. For spring use, it may be
sown in the same manner in January of
February. It should be hoed and kept
clean.
Lettuce may be sowed in the last of De
cember, or the first of January in drills
twelve or fifnen inches apart. As soon
as it takes a good start to grow, thin it
out to stand two or three inches apart, mind
ing, as you use it, to keep thinning it reg
ularly; it should also be hoed and kept
free from weeds or grass. This bed
,t’ :Id also he very rich.
Beets should bo sown in February or the
firs’ of March, in a rich, sandy soil, in
trows, or 18 inches apart. The seed
Imaybepla. \:o drills, 10 or 12 inch
es apart, and th four in a plaae; after
the plants are no, thin them to one
talk or plant, a ; i r. v..d well with plough
and hce. A tV-r !•-• v have arrived toper
m ’.
section, in the full they may be banked
liko potatoes, and preserved all winter.
Transplanting of beets does not answer
well.
Beans, bush.or bunch beans may be
planted in the last of March, in a rich,
sandy soil, in some part of the garden
that will shelter them from the North wind,
and give them the sun in the early part of
tile day. If it should be likely to Irost,
cover them at night. They may also be
..med about the full moon in April, and
i,i a succession of crops on to the 4th of
July, or even later. They may be drilled
in rows two foet apart, and after they are
well up, thiu to two stalks, 18 or 20 inch
es apart. Stick (or pole) beans may be
planted from the middle of April to July in
the same manner as the others, except that
they shouid have more distance, say 2 feet
one way and 3J the other. Have your
land well manured, and attend well with
plough and hoe. As good seed is of the
greatest importance, the stalks you allow to
save your seed from, till they are perfectly
ripe; then gather them out, and dry them
properly in the sun, then put them up in a
small bag with some tobacco or snuff, and
hang them where they can have the air:
the tobacco preserves them from the bug in
a great measure. The seed should always
be saved from the first beans you plant.
Cucumbers, Water-melons, and Musk
niellons, although they can be raised in a
garden, should never be planted there.
The reason is obvious—if a garden is not
rich land, it should be made rich; this
sends up grass and weeds very fast, and
vines, after they get properly to running,
should never be interrupted, and it would
be impossible to keep them free from grass
in a garden without moving them; there
fore select the poorest sandy old field you
have, fence in your patch, lay it off
with a plough 12 or 15 feet square, in
December; dig a hole in every cross, two
feet deep and two feet wide, (or wider still)
fill it up as soon as convenient with corn
cobs about two thirds full, and beat them
down with a maul or crowbar. Let your
fifties stand open all winter. In the first of
March, fill up the remainder of the hole
with manure, (that from a hog-pen is best.)
Plant from the Ist to the 20th of April;
put 8 or 10 seed in a hill, some of them
10 or 12 inches apart. But before you
plant your seed, mix some of the earth or
sand with your manure on the top of the
hill raise your hill about three or four inch
es above the level of the earth, for fear of
rain settling it below the surface, and
drowning your seed or plants. When they
are up and have four or five leaves, thin
them to 2 stalks, letting the farthest apart
thrifty [ffants stand When they com
mr-nco running, lay them so as to run in
different directions, so that one vine will
not interfere with another. By the time
they begin to run, they should be laid by,
having your ground perfectly clean.
Generally two ploughings and two ho
ings will do them. After they have run
3 or 4 feet, they should be confined to the
ground with cross sticks, to keep the wind
from turning them over, (I mean the water
melon vines.) No sickly or deformed mel
on shouid be allowed to set on a vine. If
you wish to raise large watermelons, let
but one melon set on a vine till it nearly
gets its growth; also top your vine. As
seed is of the greatest importance, save
your seed front those melons or cucumbers,
which gjow nearest the root of your vine;
these are decidedly the best. Vines from
these seed will yield more and come ear
lier.
The above imperfect experience I hum
bly beg to submit.
MATTHEW HALL.
GEORGIA SILK.
We have been favored with the following
extract of a letter from Mrs. McLanahan, a
lady in Philadelphia, engaged in reeling
silk, to a gentleman in Camden county.
The worms were fed on trees planted on
worn cotton lands. Those who, in our
State, are not disposed to despond under
discouragements which attended an embar
cation in that business, will eventually, by
perseverance, reap, we trust, that reward
which ever attends enlightened enterprise:
“ In reference to the cocoons you sent to
be reeled, she apologizes for the great
length of time she has had them on hand,
but hopes you will excuse her, when she
says that they were so much superior to
those raised in the vicinity of Philadelphia,
that she exhibited them to the Franklin In
stitute, and was solicited to manufacture
out of them a piece of satin, and was there
by delayed in procuring a satin loom, for
which she waited three months, and on ob
taining it, found it not to answer and was
unable to procure one in the city. She
writes that she finally made it into a blue
black Gros de Naples, and supposes that
you might probably wish to have a dress of
it for your lady at $1 25 a yard, at which
price she is selling it. She appears quite
elated at the idea of wearing a domestic
Silk Gros de Naples.”
Mrs. McLanahan reels upon shares,pay
ing the owner $5 per pound.
