Wo noticed last your whoro tlioro had been deep plowing and otherwise prop er culture, there wore good crops of corn and cotton despite the drought; where tho plowing was shallow there was a failuro. A deop furrow receives tho rain and retains it an a reservoir, and the plant is not drowned by the Hood nor parched by drought." And the Macon Telegraph, taking up the samo argument, gives a case to sustain its position: "A small planter cultivating mostly high, samly soil, has, to our huowlodge, in twenty years never missed u fair crop of corn for such land, among ail tho droughts which havo nfilictod tho country, sim ply because his furrows wore about oiglit inches deep; and the true expla nation of all the drought-bliiHted corn crops in this region is, thut tho land was broken scarcely to tho depth of three inches, and tho seed ilroppod in furrows no duepor. Corn will strug gle long and lustily against drought, with half a chunco for its rootlets to creep about in search of water and nutiimout. Where tho error of shal low plowing 1ms been committed, then a free u-o of tho bull tonguo while tho plant is yet small will give it u better clmncu to stand dry wouthrr. Ilovv to Use Him no.

He purchased only a small quantity for his cotton crop of 1871, and instead of putting it iu the drill, as ho had previously done, ho rolled his seed iu it, using only about twen | ty live pounds on enough soed for one aero. Mr. Pound says ho is well pleased with tho result, and believes that tho ono aero returned him more profit than where lie used, in the usual innuuor, ono hundred or inoro pounds to tho acre. Wo took occasion, a few dayo ago, to mention this experiment to another funnor, who told us that ho had tried tho same plan, ami fully confirmed Mr. Pound’s statement.
