Wheat culture is the most impor tanrof products, and has more influence upon the world than any other. Wheat is the sta ple for brjead, and the progress of civilzation and intellectual culture can be traced by the extent of its growth and consumption. Over 200,000,000 bushels of wheat are annually raised in this country, and we have the soil and machinery for an almost unlimited expansion of the product. The best soils for wheat are the clays, clay and lime, clay and sand, clay and loam. There must be clay for a succession of good crops. Much or vegetable de posit is not adapted to wheat cul ture, because it produces large wheat stalks, and but little or no grain. Underdraining will do more to promote the growth of wheat, on moist soils, than any one thing. Clay contains the food for the wheat plant, but it is also the most reten tive of water, and an excess of wa ter is death to the winter wheat. After drainage of a heavy clay sod a few hundred bushels per acre of sand complete! the work of improve ment, and such a soil can be made always to yield remunerative crops. A pure sand cannot he made a re munerative wheat soil- Clay can always be made so by the applica tion of sand, lime, wood-ashes anil barnyard manure. Both early and late sowing have their advocates. If there were no Hessian fly in the land, the last of August would be the best time to sew wheat in the Northern States, but early sown wheat is liable to be destroyed by this pest. As it is, probably the best time would be a bout the middle of September, espe cially if a sharp frost occurs before that time. Rich, mellow, well pre pared soil may be sown later than its opposite. There is a great gain in frequent plowings and the use of a cultivator before sowing. The selection of seed lor wheat is as important as the selection of stock for breeding. Seed wheat should be sown separately, harvest ed separately, threshed separately, and kept separately for this special purpose. The wheat crop can be increased from fifty to one hundred per cent, by attention to this sub ject. In sowing ten acres of wheat, select one acre of the be3t land, give it special attention, sow ashes, plas ter, salt and lime mixed together up on it; add a few loads of rich com post, give it extra cultivation, sow pure wheat, and while growing go through it often and pull out all for eign stuff It should be well ripen ed when cut, and not threshed with a machine nor allowed to heat in a bin. Smut is a great enemy of the wheat crop, and the only help for it is brining the seed. Bust is also one of the enemies the wheat grower is obliged to encounter. The cause is (bund iu the condition of the soil, and damp, warm weather. The dis ease occurs to the greatest extent on soils deficient in silicates, which are needed to give stiffness and strength to the straw, and abounding in vege table and animal deposits, which give a rapid growth to the plant. Wet, warm weather sets in, the cells of the stalk burst, the juices run out and the grain receives but little nofirishment, the wheat is shrunken and nearly useless. The preven tive ol this d.sease is the application, at the time of sowing, of sand, wood ashes or potash and lime. The w heat point louse is sorr.e tfTnes abundant on all the ears of wheat in a field, sucking the juices and impoverishing the grain. The midge or red weevil, by its depre dations, is the cause of the failure of the wheat crop in some sections, by causing the abortion of many of the grains in the heads attacked by it. The Hessian lly makes an attack upon particular districts. The young fall wheat attacked by these mag gots withers next spring, and death is caused by the loss of its juices. The only preventive is good seed, high culture and the application of ashes and lime. [National Agriculturist. The Cost of Weeds. The writer of “Walks and Talks,” in the American Agriculturist, stands in the front rank among the most in telligent and practical farmers in the cotintry. He has a horror of weeds, as 1 every farmer should have. In his August article he says : SVhut I have on the brain is weeds. Some people think that with modern agricultural imple ments, and the vast extent of fer tile} land in the United States, we sh|JLi produce so much more grain, ancf meat, end wool, than cah possi bly be congujned by our population, that prices will fall so low that there will be no profit in farming. Were it not for weeds and insects, such probably would be the case. My own farm and the Deacon’s are over run with weed*. We arc fighting iltefn lb ttW trfjftfnt or our ability 1 ; aqd are gratifying. Success. Our farms are becoming cleaner ChdOl&ncf' every year, but evenyet the weeds cost us more than ail oilier taxes—town, county Slate and National— direct and in direct combined. I do not mean that the labor of destroying them cost so much, but the weeds that escape, damage our crops to such an extent that we lose half our prof its. You must recollect that the actual piolits of farming, after de ducting the inlciest on capital, the cost of labor (our own o>- others.) the wear and tear of implements, etc., arc exceedingly small. I know of comparatively few farms where, after making these deductions, the actual profits are more than $5 per acre. On the other hand, I know of scores of farms where, at least on some fields, the weeds damage the crops SlO per acre. And, depend upon it, no farmer can be really successful until he makes an earnest, persevering effort to clean his land. It is fortunate for us that the means used to accomplish this object will do much towards enriching the soil. But the old farmer said this look ed too much like book-farming for him. Another neighbor came along and wanted to know what in the world I was mowing those oats for. I told him to make good teed for my cows in winter. He thought that 1 would make more ieed for rats than cows, for, said he, “the rats will cut them nil to pieces, and your barn will be overrun with them.” But I cut my oats and put them to the mow, and now have the satisfaction of seeing with w hat keen relish my stock eat them. Permit me to ad vise my brother larmers to sow a piece of oats to cut green and cure lor hay ; prepare the ground thor oughly and sow from three to four bushels per acre, and cut when the most forward grains come in the milk and put them in tho barn. How to Shear Sheep. I often thought that there should be some way to fasten a sheep while it was being shorn, to prevent it from struggling, and at the same time hold it in such a position as not to interfere with the operation of shearing, but I could 11 it think ol any that would answer satisfactorily, and therefore followed the best in structions I could get, which was to let the animal have its feet, and ei ther place it on a platform some two feet high, or set it on its posterior end on a floor, all of which I have tried to do in as gentle a manner as possible, but have always felt as if 1 was causing the animal more unea siness and pain Ilian was nc-cessary, or consistent with the manner in which dumb brutes should be treat ed. This season 1 employed the services of a professional shearer, who, to my great surprise, I find has discovered a plan (he claims it as his own) by which he can lie a sheep and hold it perfectly secure in such a manner that it can be shorn with the greatest ease and facility, and at the same time it will not suf fer the least from the manner in which it is held. His plan is to raise a platform about three feet high, or high enough for a man to work at, standing, when a sheep is laid on it. He then places the sheep to be shorn on the platform, and tics its feet securely to a stick about five feet in length, or just long enough .to distend the ani mal comfortably. When laid on the platform, the sheep should have its head to the left hand of the shearer, with bis feet towards him ; he then commences to shear on the upper side of the belly, and shears down wards as far as lie can, when he turns and shears upwards, and over the back as far as be can work, pul ling the sheep towards him, till he has shorn half or two-thirds of the side on which it rested when he commenced ; lie then gathers up the fleece close to the animal ; lilts it entirely up, turning it with its feet under it, where he has it in a conve nient position to shear what remains of the side 011 which it lay when he commenced. He thinks that for the comfort of the sheep, the platform should be a few inches higher at the end where the head rests.— Prairie Farmer. Oat Hay. —An Ohio farmer writes: One experiment I tried last season with which 1 am highly pleased —that is, sowing oats to cut green anil cure for hay. Neighbor S. came along as I bad just com menced mowing them, and advised me to let them stand until they got ripe, and have a good crop of grain and straw too ; “For,” said be, “if you cut them now while the grain is just coming into milk, you will lose tho grain, and the straw will be no better than if the grain bad ripened.” As he was an older man, I listened to his advice meekly of course, and then tried to explain to him my the ory, that, as the oats had not got their growth, the substances or jui ces that form the grain were in the stalk, and if cured, what I did not have in the head I should have in the straw. A resident of Manchester, Me., owns a flock of forty-three turkeys, who have formed a copartnership with the crows in exterminating the grasshoppers. The turkeys and crows meet and freely mingle, and seem to greatly enjoy each other’s society. Cotton pkSfßg the moa*4M4>mme#t> ite:« work for the month.

Lately a now article has made its appearance in commerce, serving a similar purpose ol lea or coffee. It is known under the name of Guar ana, and although it has been used almost exclusively for its medical properties, it is now relished by many as an article of food. In Bra zil, the Guarana is used instead of coffee or tea. The first information received of this article was through Spix and Martius, who travelled lor some time in Brazil. There they were told that the Guarana is made out of a vine, known as Paullinia ;■ or bi lls. The seeds, which ripen in Oc tober, are taken out of their capsu les and dried in the sun ; after which they arc roasted over a slow fire, ground into a fine powder-, mix ed with a little water, or exposed to the dew, which gives sufficient mois ture to w’ork the mass into a dough. .To this a few whole seeds are lid ded, and the mass is then lormed into a cylindrical or round form, and sold. The P. sorbilis grows from iweuty to thirty feet in height, and is prop agated from seeds or from cuttings. In the third year the vine begins to bear. Il is pruned iu the same way as our giape vines. The fruit is ripe in November, and each vine bears about eight pounds of seed. The annual production of Guara na is about six millions of pounds. Rural Carolinian. Garden Work. This month opens what rnav be called our second spring,-and if we take advantage of it, we may have an abundance of most kinds of veg etables in our gardens during the fall and winter. Sometimes great care and frequent teplantings are necessary to secure a stand, so hot is the sun and so violent (bo rains, but perseverance generally crown our efforts with success. Our directions must be mainly the same as for last month. Most operations that were neglected or failed in August may, in this latitude, be repeated now. Cabbage must be transplanted for winter heading ; also Cauliflowers and Broccoli. Sow European seed for spring cabbages. Plants from American seed are more apt to run to seed in the spring. Turnips and Kohl Rabi may be sown as directed in August number. Carrots, Beetsj Swiss, Chard, etc., if you failed to get a stand last month, may now be sown with bet ter hope of success. Ouions, for the main crop, if not already planted, may now be got in. Lettuce, Radishes, Spinach, Mus tard, will .do well planted this month ; and, in the low country, Snap Beans are still in order tor planting during.the first week, and will do well if the fall be favorable. To protect tender young plants, as cabbage, beets, carrots, etc., from the sun and beating rains, set bushes between the rows, reclining a little over them ; or lay bushes on crotch es raised three or four feet above the bed. In the fruit garden, budding may still be done, it there be sufficient growth to make the bark slip. Strawberry beds should now be prepared : and, if the weather fa vors, plant during the month, water ing and shading the plants ifneces saiy. When planting on a larger scale than the garden’s limit per mits, we prefer later pluming. Prepare lands for orchards and vineyards. New land is best, and it need not be rich for either peaches or grapes. A stronger soil for ap ples and pears is desirable. Novem ber and December are the best months for planting trees and vines generally, but it is well to hpve dip and prepared and the holes dug in advance. —Rurul Carolinian. rT“ rXafX" i ■ || 9 y 4 % ** - * ij / Vl' i j> fuREI* J.
