The Journal. J. ]!. HOYLS■ V. L WESTON EDITO R S. The Next Wheat Crop. We copy the following interesting n s le on the culture of wheat from ih? • Farmers columns” of the New York U'orld: The increase'! acreage of white,, u heat sown last year, together with the successful wintering and fine ma turing of fall-sown -wheat the past two seasons, will induce an unusual number of farmers to prepare land for the putting in of extended fields of winter wheat during the coining Sep tember. Although a difference-of price no longer exists, as of old, in the exclu sil e favor of winter wheat—owing to what is called the “new process’’ of grinding, in which the grain is first deprived of its outer covering—and analysis gives the greatest nutritive value of the spring wheat, there yet prevails the old notion, born of many years’ experience, that winter grain is more productive, wi‘h heads more erect and full and the grain plumper and heavier, than that which is spring sown. Summer fallow and late sowing will be the rule with experienced planters, and beginners will do wel to take a lesson by their example.— One of the great errors in wheat hus bandry is unquestionably ot a sufficient period of time between ploughing for wheat and seeding it. As soon as practicable (the earlier t he better) so 1 should be turned down and reploughed when rotted, with, alter-culture enough to put the soil in good tilth. This practice may be applied to field after the hay crop is removed, to sod in pasture and to grain stubble. The preliminary de <■ -imposition of crude vegetable mat ter on most soils is an indispensable preparation to a good wheat crop.— \\ heat especially requires old fertility to bring it to its best. Wheat is partial, as every farmer knows, to a well prepared clay o r heavy loam, and this is improved when it contains, either naturally or artificially, a large propotion of lime hinie is an important aid to the full and certain growth of wheat; it not only checks an exuberance of straw and a liability to rust, but steadily aids in filling out the grain. Land which has been well manured and cleanly cultivated with roots or corn the preceding season furnishes a good bed for wheat. b vesh barn-yard manure applied directly to this crop is decidedly ob jectionable, as it introduces many foreign seeds, and from its tendency to excite a rapid growth of weak straw, causes the grain both to lodge and rust, licli alluvial or vegetable soils present the same objections, all <>f which may, however, be overcome by the addition of lime or ashes or both. A dressing of charcoal (exten sively introduced in France for the Wheat crop) is olso beneficial. Early ploughing and a summes fal low, with good surface drainage, is especially desirable on heavy clay lands and in fields that have to be guarded against the chief enemies this grain, viz : the fiy, chinch bug and rust. When, however, the land intended for wheat has not been ploughed in seasons to admit of a fallow, or is in an impoverished state, the great a motint os silica in the straw of cereal grains—amounting iii wheat to about four-fifths of the total ash from the grain and straw —should be bore in mind and ample provision made for it in the soil in a form susceptible of ready assimilation by the plant. This is a Abided both by ashes and from the action of lime upon the soil, hence the habit, fast growing among far mers. of sowing, under those circum stances, at seed time superphosphate of lime. Asa rule, in order to insure suc cessful cultivation, wheat should take its course in a proper rotation. It is never advisable to sow this cereal on a poor soil or on one which has not been cultivated sutficieotly to rendtr it clean and mellow. Rust and the Ay seldom appear in fields that have received proper preparation previous to seeding and been supplied with requisite plant-food. Farmers anx ious to extend their wheat acreage not infrequently, especiall if they be novice.-, seed on land ins'irficicutlv cultivated forgetful that it is asmuch | cheaper and easier to grow thirty. ■ five or forty bushels of grain upon one acre than upon two. Oreat care should be observed in the selection and preparation of seed’ Many hold to selection by “casting, e., throwing the gram to some dis tance on a floor, and using only sneh as reaches t fie furthest, thereby sep. arating the plump and heavy grain from the lighter seed of chess or oth er weed. Others and the largerclass, compass the same end by running the seed through a seive, riddle of fanning mill several times, and then placing it in a tub or brine, when the few foreign seeds which have esceped will float oh top and can be readily removed. Many agriculturists advise, and most farmers practice, washing seed in strong hrine previous to sowing when it has not already been through teh floating process. Mr Allen, the well known authority on this subject, advises, in addition to washing in brine, when grain inclines to snmt, intimately mixing it with one-twelfth is bule of fresh pulverized quick lime, which he contends not only kills the smut, hut insures early and rapid growth. The I.ile-Tiine of Man. When the world was created, and all creatures assembled to have their lifetime appointed, the ass first ad vanced and asked how long he would have to live. “Thirty years,” replied Nature “will that be agreeable to thee ?” -‘Alas!” answered the ass, “it is a long while. Remember what a wear isome existance will be mine; from morning until n-ght I shall have to bear heavy burdens, dragging corn sacks to the mill that others may eat bread, while I shall have no encour agement, nor be refreshed by any thing but blows and kicks, (rive me but a portion of that time, I pray.” Nature was moved with compas sion, and presented but eighteen years. The ass went away comfort ed, ami the dog came forward. “llow long dost thou require to live? Thirty years were too many for the ass, but wilt thou be contented with them?” asked Nature. “Is it thy will that I should ?” re plied the dog. “Think how much I shall have to run about; my feet will not last for so long a time; and when I shall have lost my teeth for biting and my voice for barking what else shall I be fit for but to lie in a corner and growl ?” Nature thought lie was right, and gave him twelve years. The ape then appeared. “Thou wilt, doubtless, willingly have the thirty years; thou wilt not have to labor as the ass and the dog. Life wnl be pleasant to thee.’’ “Ah, no, so it may seem to others but it will not be ! Should puddings ever rain down, I shall have no spoon! I shall play merry tricks and excite laughter by grimaces, and then be rewarded with a sour apple. llow often sorrow lies concealed behind a jest ! I shall not be able to endure it for thirty years,” replied the ape. Nature was gracious, and he re ceived hut ten. At last c-ame man, healthy and strong, and asked the measure of his days. “Wi.l thirty years content thee?” “Ah! how short a time I” exclaimed the man. “When I shall have built my house and kindled a fiie on my own hearth j when tho trees I have planted are> about to bloom and bear fruit; when life shall seem most desirable to me, I shall uie, Oh, Nature, , grautui a longer period.” “Ihou shalt have the eighteen of the ass besides.” ‘ That is not long enough,’' replied man. ‘ Take the twelve years of the dog,’’ said Nature. It is not yet sufficient, give rue mote,” replied man. “I give thon the ten years of the ape ;n va:n wilt thou claim more.” Man departed satisfied Thus man lives seventy years. The first thirty are his hum m years, and pass swiftly by. lie is then healthy and happy’ labors cheerfully, and rejoices in his existence. The eighteen years of the ass conr.es next, and burden upon bur. den is heaped upon him; lie car ries the c>rn that is to feed others; blow sand kicks are tbe wages of his faithful service. The twelve years of the dog follow’, and be bis teeth, and lies in a corner and growls. When those are gone the ape’s ten years form the conclusion. The man weak and silly, becomes the spoit of childen. —hedgedftum the Germa'i. ’I he \ nine of Sunflowers. Sunflowers arc rich in honey and are consequently good neighbors for bee- >.l. hurdlv to be distinguished from olive oil by any one but an ex pert, may be extracted from the seeds in proportion of one gallon to one bushel. One acre will produce some thing like fifty bushels of seed. The seeds, too, make food not unpalatable for human beings, and very good tor animals and poult-y. The Portuguese and American Indians make a kind of bread from them, and roasted they maybe ground and used asa substitute for coffee. The stalks maybe used as bean poles while growing. Dry they make passable roofs for sheds and the like, and burn readily on the hearth.

After all has been said or done that can be, the fact remains the same that the only true proof of the pudding is in the eating, and every housekeeper must be her own judge of the merits or de merits of the various preparations offered for her use in cooking. To form any intelligent judgment, a fair trial, how ever, is necessary, and this is all that we ask for Sea Foam. It has stood the test of chemical analysis as well as practical use, and notwithstanding the fact that some grocers insist on handling inferior articles that offer larger profits, it has attained an enormous sale, and wherever once fairly introduced has since had a constant and increasing demand. That all may be induced to give it a fair trial, we select from the vast number received a few testimonials to the merits of Ska Foam. THE GREAT jCHEBHST.
