This manure. "We till too much land,' is
an expression in very common use. Sup
pose farmer has manure at his command
to enrich well, two acres, and no more:
would it not be better to apply all his ma
nure to two acres, than four! Certainly
it would; the expense of tilling two acres
would be saved, besides the satisfaction
he would take in viewing his Iuxuriant
crops, under iudicious cultivation. l will
close this subject by extracting few wise
remarks, from one who reasons from
what he knows:
"Let every farmer examine ms farm,
to see if there be not some mine OF wealth
in the shape of a mari bed; or, at least, if
there be not an accumulation, somewhere,
of decayed vegetables, or some ingre'
dicnts of soil, in which his cultivated fields
are deficient. 1t is believed there are few
farms that have not some advantages Of
this kind-some quagmire, perhaps, which
may prove the making OF the farm. We,
getation draws her stores from the vegeta-
Bic, animal, and mineral kingdoms, and
there are no defnable limits to her i'm
provements. Our soil, instead Of becom-
ing less and less fruitful, as is the mistaken
opinion of some, may, by proper cultl-
walton, be made more, and yet more pro-
life. Our earth contains the materials
necessary to make her surface a garden.
All that is wanting, is the diligert hand
and the intelligent head, to make her
plains and valleys, her hills and dales,
green with thick herbage, and wave with
the golden grain"
Ihopc, Mr.. Editor, the subject of maxi
ing, sauing aud applying manure, will re-
csIve a more careful investigation from
those who are better qualified, and who
have had more experience than the writer
of this. On this subject, all good husban-
dry is based; without good understand
ing of this, our labors are almost futile
l would advise farmers to inform them
selves with regard 10 this subject; what
they cannot find out by their own expe-
ricncc, thew should learn from other
sources,-take the Yankee Farmer, or

AGRICULTURAL.
From the Yankee Farmer
ON THE APPLICATION or MA
NURE TO THE SOIL.

Mr.. Editor: In communication pub
lished in your paper last year, / cndeavor-
ed to throw some light on making and
saving Manure. | will now, as far as l
know by experience, give some directions
how manure should be applied. The mak-
ing, saving anil applying manures, is a
subject of great importance, and is too
much neglected by many farmers. Ma
nure is most effective when applied in a
green or unfermcnted state, to all hoed
crops, and in all cases, when so applied,
to be completely covered with the plough;
in this way the fermentation goes on in
the soil, and the crop receives the strength
of the manure when most needed. l
have learned that manure should not be
moved from the heap, previous to Its re-
moval to the field intended for its rcccp-
ton; and when moved thither, it should
be Immediately ploughcd in, or put into
the hill, as the case may be.
Some, who have the appeliation of
good farmers, haul out their manure in
the fall, place it in large piles, to be put
into hills, or leave it in small heaps, to be
spread and ploughed in, in the spring
Now, | think this to be bad husbandry.-
Manure thus managed, is exposed to the
rains and frosts; and by being completely
drenched by the storms, thawing and
freezing, and being washed cdaway, becomes
almost worthless, in comparison with what
it might be, if left in dopositc till wanted
for immediate use in the spring.
A farmer might have his farm yard
constructed with two apartments; in one
ward, he can deposit his unfemented ma
nure; and in the other, he can have a
compost. By having the two kinds sepa'
rate, he can plough the un(ermented ma
nure in, and manure in the hill WITH the
compost. On land from which a;sssr
crop is expo cted, mfermented manure
should be spread broadcast, and turned
under deep. (rhe question may be ask
ed, how deep? answer, as deep as Car
be conveniently ploughcd with common
seed-plough-probably five, six, or sever
inches) and manlncd with fine manure
in the hill. "Therc is no CROP" says Hen
~ Colman, ''tfat Will Dctter reward INT
most liberal cultivation" With regard tt
manuring of wheat, it is best to apply th'
manure to the land the preceding yea
for a hoed crop. If the crop is well hoe'
two or three times, the land will be clea
from weeds, in a great degree, and Wi
be in fine order for crop of wheat.
As regards the quantity of manure t
be applied to an acre of tillagc, many cir
cumstances are to be taken into considera
ton, such as the strength Of the soil, tn
kind of crop to be produced, Qndian cor
requiring the largest quantity0 and tn
quality and quantity of the manure. Th
farmer, in making his calculations on th
point, should not apportlon his manure t
his land, but should apportlon his land

PREPARATIONS FOR THE NEXT
CROP.
Rumf@d, February, 1s4l.

We were gratifed to see on our recent
visit to the eastern part of the State, that
the Planters were bestowing greater pans
in the nanuring of their lands for the next
crop than we have ever seen in that Sec
ton of country before this. In some
places where the farmers have not been
able to procure sufficient quantity OF
manure from their barn yards, they are
hauling in straw and leaves from the
woods and scattering them in their simple
state on their fields. Heretofore, what
little system of manuring there has been,
has been confined mostly to the upland
Planters, but some of the river Planters
arc now carrying on an extensive plan OF
manuring, not only with the trodden
leaves and straw from their barn yards,
but also by hauling on their fields the rich
aluvial deposit left by the freshets on
their low grounds that are not cultivated.
We had the pleasure of spending a
night with Col. Taylor, who plants on the
Watcrec: he is pursuing the system OF
manuring more extensively than any
Planter of our acquaintance, and with
eminent success, so far as he has had op-
portunity for Judging from the time ne
has been doing so. He Will probably haul
this season, from his barn yard alone, be-
tween three and four thousand loads OF
manure, besides straw in its natural state,
and the deposit from some of his low
grounds.
Let this system be vigorously and un-
tiringly pursued by all our Planters for
sten years, and we shall see the now worn
lands of Carolina presenting that rich
verdure which in its earliest settlement at
tracted the emigrants from the old world,
and isanaed them to flock to, then wild
and unciyiizcd country. Let planters
who arc disposed to leave their native
State for the fertile lands of the West
but to besow the same labor and expense
in rcclainsing their worn lands, which
thew would Be compelled to bestow ir
clearing and preparing the heavy timber
cd lands of the West, and then add tt
this the expense of removal, and the sa
| crifce of many articles Of property, Incl
dent to it, let them do this and the!
will find themselves settled on as produce
tive plantations in Carolina as they woul'
find elsewhcre.-Temp. Aduo.
