About WM*t.
Tho wheat crop In this latitude will
boon bn harvested. Farmers should
not forget that the tlrno to cut wheat
for making llour, is while It is in the
dough, before tHI the "milk has
been assimilated. Cut in this stage.
It will make more and whiter llour
thuu when out after it has hardened.
U'iie flour will also "rise" better,
.which fact a good housewife will
quietly disoowr. Of course,
wheat designed for seed should bo
Swept standing four or five days long-
Ar, or until it has become fully mu
fired.
Elo those farmers who .tire sjnartipgj
tinder tlio loss of their wheat from!
rust, we say, do not be discouraged, i
Wheat cun no raised sueoessfully in j
this latitude. lu Alabama, Missiasip-.
I>T, Georgia and South Carolina, above
the aist degree of latitude, can be 1
raised wheat of a better quality than I
eau be luodueed in Ohio, Indiana or t
any other Northern State, It lias,
been .and is being done now, on a
small seale, and will be on a much 1
larger seale so soon ns our farmers |
learn how, and become willing, to
make the necessary preparation.
Btmtißo as It may sound, we nerver
theless assert, that wheat is a more
certain crop here, than it is in any
Northern State, lu thislatltudef2Ul a l
wheat is subject to but two diseases,
vt*} smut and rust; but for both of
these we liaVe a simple, safe and sure
preventative—whereas in the North
ern States it Is not unfrequentlv
"winter killed." and the "seek fly 1 ’
is sometimes vary destructive.
Against these two.pio remedy has yet
been discovered.
t This (June) is the month in which
(ftp begin your preparatory work for
the licit erop of wheat. Select a
high, well-drained piece of laud,
however thin it may he, in preference
to low land. Igiy off in rows 12 in
ches apart, with a shovel plow, fol
lowing in ear'll shovel furrow with a
subsoil plow, or, a scooter 11 inches
long, made of iron or steel, 11x2 or 21
inches not wider, or your horse will
not, be able to pull it, if put in the
ground as deep as it should go. If
the land be thin, put iu Miffluisut
manure to give the peas a good start,
before running the scooter furrow.
Iu these furrows, drill from one to
two peeks of s|eekled peas per acre,
and cover these by splitting out the;
middles with one shovel furrow, fol- !
lowed by the subsoil or scooter plow.
Bore two holes with a six-quarter
auger into a 4x4 inch scantling feet
long, one foot from each end into
which insert two small hickory poles;
which, when fastened to the names, :
will serve as shafts und traces. With
this implement you can “knock off" 1
five rows simultaneously. When the
peas shall have attained a growth of
about eight inches, it would be of
benefit to run one furrow, with a
small shovel between the rows.
During the month of August, while
the peas are in bloom, turn the vines
under, covering them entirely with
soil, if possible. To accomplish this
twist two heavy chains together, to
,be used as a drag; fasten the two
Loads to the single-tree, thus forming ,
r a how, which should at the nearest |
I point, be two or three inches in front
of the turning-plow. This drag will
hold down the vines, enabling the
‘plowman to cover them up.
*. In October, between the Bth and i
lStli, sow, broadcast, HO bushels of
option seed on each acre. Turn
th.-m under with n two-horse plow,
following in each furrow with your
lei siter or subsoil plow. Sow, broad
cii i, u bushels of good seed wheat,
and tlieu sow, broadcast, one sack (4
bushels of chloride of sodium (com
rnon salt; to eaeh acre; cover, b\
dragging a harrow or very heavy
brush, over the land.
Prepare your seed wheat for sow
ing. as follows ; Take a till), till half
I full with water, and dissolve salt in
the water until a freshly-laid egg will
float, showing a space tho size of a
! nickel above the water; then stir,
und skim off ail the wheat that rises
to the top. Continue to stir as long
; as any wheat will rise to the surfaee.
ejFVod the scum to stock. As soon as
the defective wheat has been thusre
| moved, take out the sound wheat and
; re|*at the operation until nil the
; .wheat designed for sowing has been
• In tiie brine.
| In January, scatter broadcast ono
Bbarrel per acre of gypsum (land plas
iti'i over the growing wheat.
F If these directions arc closely fol-
Bowed, you may confidently expect to
■reap, next spring, twenty bushels per
lucre of as good wheat as can be irn-
Sported. As the result of the year’s
lope rations, you will have S4O for each
■here treated as above directed, and
|>our land, which is now poor, will
then be rich
Repeat this process the second,
/third and fourth years, omitting the
Ivotton seed, and after the second
| year use only two bushels of suit—
and 40 bushels of wheat, per acre will
| be the result for the fourth crop. For
the fifth year, five times as many
; bushels of corn per aero as cun now
; be raised on the land; and for the
sixth and seventh years, from one to
two bales of cotton weighing 500 ills,
each, barring Providential interfer
ence.
Professor lading, the celebrated
chemist, citc-fa case in point, which
we give for the encouragement of all
those who have enterprise enough to
follow the above instructions. After
tho removal of the crop, which wuC
onlv four bushels of wheat per acre,
; "the land was sowed with cow-peas,
the crop plowed under In the fall,
wheat again sowed, and the process
of alternating wheat and peas repeat
ed, until, in four years, the yield in
creased to forty bushels per acre,
without the use of any other fertili
zer."
If an apology be necessary for re
peating, in this article, some things
