Tliin Sow iiiK of Wlmat.
The lollowing interesting paper is
from tlio West Chester [Fa.] Jefferso
niftn:
The result of an experiment made
during the past season, by It. A. Gil
pin, at his farm in Westown, on the
wide planting and cultivation of wheat,
appears to bo quite remarkable. In
giving an account of the experiment,
Mr. Gilpin says :
The ground measured one acre with
in a fraction ; it was not selected on
account of any inferiority, but was
much the same as the rest of the field,
and was manured and prepared just
the same. The seed was the red Med
iterranean, and not very good, beiog
taken from the wheat grown on the
place iho previous season, which was
injured by the weevil. It was drilled
in at the rate of three fourths of a
bushel to the acre, on the 25th of Sep
tember, at the patne time as the rest
of the field. The peculiarly in the
treatment, was that every other pipe
of the drill was stopped, so that the
rows of wheat were twenty inches
apart, or double the usual distance
In the spring, when tho ground had
become sufficiently dry to work, a
small garden hoe harrow was run be
tween the rows, working the ground
to the depth of about three inches; this
was done only once. The effect of
this working was very apparent; the
wher.t took a rapid start and out grew
the rest of the field. As the season
advanced it grew strong, and
no amount of wind or rain had any ef
fect to lay it down ; when the heads
formed, their greater length was very
apparent. It was backward in ripen
ing, and the rest of the field was cut
and hauled in a week before this was
ready.
Now for the result; the experimen
tal wheat yielded twenty three bushels
to the acre, and the rest yielded only
nine bushels to the acre; the quality
of each was about the samo. Wheth
er from defect in the seed, or wet sea
son, or the late planting, the whole of
my wheat was injured both by rust
and weevil, and’the experimental part
did not escape—it was affected just
as the rest w as. As to the effect of
this mode of plantirg and working
wheat on the clover and timothy, I
cannot speak with certainty. The
usual amount of timothy was sown
with the wheat, and in the spring, im
mediately after the hoe-harrow, timo
thy was again sown with the clover
on the fresh broken surface. The clo
ver now shows a very fine growth on
the stubble, and on examination, there
appears to be quite as much timothy
ne is usually observed. It may be not
ed that there was no growth of weeds
to trouble the v heat, though the sea
son was favorable to them. This ex
periment cannot be regarded as entire
ly satisfactory; the season was excep
tional, th* seed used was inferior, and
the yield of the experimental part of
the field was not absolutely great, but
only by comparison with the rest of
the crop, which was a poor one from
the effects of the rust and the weevil;
but the result is, under any circum
stances, sufficiently reasonable to at
tract tbo attention of farmers, and in
duce a further trial. Supposing, as
the experiment strongly indicates, that
the crop is considerably increased by
this mode of raising wheat, there are
still many points of importance to be
determined The amount of seed sown
was very small—only three quarters of
a bushel to the acre; it is probable
this might be increased to at least one
bushel with advantage. The hoe
harrow was used only once; It is prob
able that it might be run between the
rows several times with much advan
tage. This mode of planting wheat
would also probably allow of much
much higher manuring without dan
ger from rain and wind, and with in
creased production of grain.
Weevil and Other Insects. — Mr.
Ganff, Agricultural Engineer of Bel
gium, gives hia method for destroying
the weevil and other insects on grain,
Hia plan is to deposit the grain for
seed in barrels fumigated with burn
ing sulphur. Coarse threads or twine
nre drawn through melted brimstone,
Buspehded in the barrels intended for
the grain and burned there. The
need is then thrown into the casks
amid the fume and covered up for a
quarter of an hour, when the opera
tion is complete and the seed ready
for sowing.
