It is important, there* lore, to push it forward very rapidly. All matured crops should be housed as quickly as possible, and tall sowing completed as soon as practicable. It is extremely bad policy to let the operations of one year drag over iqtqthc next. A late start is general ly equivalent to a Lad start. WnEAT. Should he sown at once in the middle of the cotton belt, (this should have been done last montif in its colder portions,) but to wards the Gulf, sowings may be deferred to the beginning of next month. Wherever (experience lias shown that wheat my be grown, with eyen moderaic success, every farmer out to sow at lea3t enough for home supply. Where success is more certain, sow not only fur the white lamily, but a sufficiency to supply the laborers with what they need. Release the laborer from the, clutches of over exacting merchants, aod lie can afford to work for you at cheaper rates. Whatever profits merchants get from selling western provisions to laborers, onr farmers could realize, either indirectly in -securing lower wages, by furnishing cheap home grown provisioes, or directly in selling corn >vheat, &c,, at an advance over cost of pro duction. It is time that mote attention were given to the economy of the farm, and careful study bestowed upon the points where more money may be made, and, the no less important one, where any may be saved —cheapening lab*,r, dispensing with it by judicious use of labor-saving implements, and intelligent use ot fertilfzers—substitut ing horse-work for handiwork; these are some of the many problems which claim our profoundest study. But it is not pro posed to discuss them now—they were sug gested by icfleciing about the wheat crop, and we merely throw them out in passing. BYE. For seed, and green crops to he ploughed under—not for grazing—may still be sown. 3 peeks of seed per acre will suffice, and our farms would be better for having a vast deal more ot it sowu. Galded or other poor spots sown each winter iq rye, nuled by a little manure, could soon be brought up to a good state of fertility. BARLEY may likewise l e sown this month, where seed, not grazing, is desired—to 2 bush els of seed per acre may be sown on medium lands. It is woi thy of consideration—inas much as barley enjoys almost entire immun ity from disease, and is a winter crop, not subject to drougths ot summer—liow much it may be made to take the pi:*ee of corn iu the ration of horses. It is used largely for ibis purpose in California, and in portions of South America. CLOVEIt AND GRASSES, Cannot very safely be sown the present month, because the young plants, having yery little depth ot root, are too liable to be lifted and destroyed by frost It would be better ijpw to defer sowing them till early spring,. Rut Spiels already set in grass, would be greatly hpimiitted by a top-dress ing of fine stable or lot manure, evenly and unifi>riiv}y spread over Jty<ana. In the ab sence of such manqre. one to two liurdred pounds, per acye, of ajnmo niated fertiliser will answer. gqod purpose. One of the surest means of keeping put broonisedge, or other intruders, is too feed the grass liberally and encourage rapidaud vigorous growth. Be careful to avoid too close grazing of the grass and clover fields jt w ill weaken the plants and unfit them to withstand the winter’s cold. Moderate grazing as long as growth continues, will not be injurious. SWEET POTATOES. As soon as severe weathersets in, stop tjbe ventilating holes with straw ana put more dirt on the banks, and continue to add and more as the witner advances, until a foot or more of earth is secured. A thick layer of earth will preserve a uniform, me dium temperature which, with dryness, will certainly insure good keeping. If the hanks have ptAlty steep sides, and the earth is well packed on. they will shed water well enough without the trouble of making a roof over them, the absence ol aloof, i* is well, however, tJ pift a good shingling of pine bark or boards next to the pine straw with which the potatoes should be covered. LIVE STOCK, Bean the flocks carefully and get rid, 91 every surplusjxn'mmX; by surplus i£ every one that cannot l>e abundantly and well cared for. We have several advised a decreiww in the number of .covs, and the raising <f mules in their stead.— The cotton States cau and ought, as a mat ter of sound economy, to raise its mules The first step towards it is. to diminish the number of cattle—which cau be done with* cut the least injury to dairy, or beef supply, or even to the manure heap—for two cows, half led .on tfhe rations om can consume, will yield no mare iiUtlex, boot, or manure, than the one will—in point of fact they will yield less. Villagers, who keep only one cow, well fed and carqd Lor, get as much milk, &c., as most farmcra do who keep five or head of cattle. KILLING IIOGS. The latter part of November is generally the best time to cure pork. Have cvery ‘ thing ready for the first.cold spell after the middle of the month. Cutup the hogs as squints d/>is 3L-d—spread out the “joints” so that tln-y Shull not iouen each other, and apply salt at one :. The next day, pack down in salt ns usual. Treated thus, there is scarcely any risk whatever in curing meat, even in the warmest jKirtions of the South. EARLY SOWN OATS, If they have beguq to joint, s liquid be graz ed nnxlerately jlry weather, to prevent injury from bard ifccfies. But be extreme ly careful not V? grageso closely as to weak en the plants; llsey then become liaole to be winter-killed. Except in Southern portions of the cstton belt, there js much risk in sow ing oats after the middle of November, and we should prefer to postpone additional sowings till the early part of January. FALL PLOUGH INO seems unsuited to some localities and soj]§, hut these form exceptions rather than the rule. The -compacting and baking, which our correspondent “V.” and othera compajn of, will not take place where surface drain ing is good, vegetable matter present, and the surface left ridged instead of perfectly flat. Some soils of very close texture, and very old laqds run down and destitute of vegetable matter or very shallow ploughed, do best when left undisturbed until planting time in spring, but as one never has time to break up all his land just at that juncture, and the baking takes place chiefly from the rains and winj of February and March, i is useless to defer ploughing till spring, and fall ploughing, when tne land is in order, is very desireable. One very great advan tage of the latter is, that very much less li ability exists, to plough when the ground is too wet. Another is, the freezes act very beneficially on all very stiff clays, when ridged, pulverizing them, and admitting air which by chemical action briDgs new por tions of it into condition to be appropriated by the next crop COMMERCIAL REPORT THOM.iSTOS MAUKET ItEPOHT, COKKECTKD WEEKLY BY IR. -A.
