SOIL AND PROPER MANURES
FOR WHEAT


The soil best adapted TO the growth
OF wheat has been proved by exner,rnce
TO be clays. [,he red the best, or loan
mixed with clay; good " heat, however.
may be grown on sandy land aided by
ley of clover turned under. But whe.
theF the soil be either the one or The 9TH
er II is absolutely necessary that portion
o! lime, IN some OF its forms, be present
LII The earth TO ensure a good crup: so
essential is this mineral, and so power
!ul It's effects, that from two to three
per cent. has been found sufficient
!" hen we Say that lime is absolutely ne.
cessary, we do not pretend 10 affirm, that
wheat cannot be grown upon soil
where 1t does not exist but we do aver.
that II cannot advantagrously be cul,iva-
ted without it, and this will appear The
more reasonable when the fact is con-
sidered, tina: both the kernel and straw
contain lime in their composition, the
which must DC taken up from the earth
IN the food of the plants while growing.
The proper manures for wheat land,
is subject Of deep importance, ard be-
fore we designate the proper kind, we
will remark as general rules-I. That
long or unfermented manure never
should De Immediately applied to the
wheat CROP. That whatever manure
may be applied, lime in some of its COM
blhatIons and forms, should comprise a
part OF 1t, unless the land on which the
wheat is to be grown possesses the min.
eral naturally, or may have beer preri>
ously lined. lfit be not convenient to
apply foil dressing to the land, a very
small modicum for all present purposes
will answer-say from three to four
bushels to the acre of fine lime, sown by
hand OH the surface of the ground, after
the wheat is in, will do.
SoapeT's a$kes, whe,her Of the black
or 6arritta kind, is perhaps. the very
best manure Of all others to dress wheat
land with. From 100 TO 200 bushels 10
the acre is the proper quantity; the for
mer kind is, doubtless. the most prompt
and eiiicieD, i'll giving character and
quantity to the first succeeding crop
MUt, whether clay or shell, is most
excellent manure. and when applied ju-
diciously, and i'll proper quantities, will
prove of present as well as OF lasting ben
eht to the soil 1t should, il possible,
always be strewed over the ground the
winter previous to being pIoughed. -
From ten 10 twelve cart loads TO the a.
ere is sufficient Tor first dressing.
| Crushed bones or 6oae dust. in the pro.
portion Of from % to 30 bushels TO the
acre, exert most healthy action in the
growth of wheat, besides leaving behind
ii an effect which will last tor wears.
Slaug hier,hOuSe refuse, as blood and
oifsIs OF all kinds, have been found EN-
inently suited to the habiludrs Of wheat.
thoroughly Totied barn-y ard or other
vegetable or animal manure. in The pros
portion OF from 10 to 20 double cart
loads TO the acre never fail TO ensure a
good crop. but lime be absent from the
