a. h,,.h.le 10 the acre. Our crop might
have been somewhat larger II double the
ousntitv Of seed had been pot upon the
ground, and ihe oats bad stood up firmly.
Of this. although there was no severe rain
10 Law them, there would have been great
doubt-for the rank stalks fell as It was
where the pile Of manure had rested the
previous year. Besides, we encountered
here, as We believe, one Of the scverest
droughis ever known; and we have reas-
on to think the drought this year did H.
tie or no injury to Mr.. June's crop IL
Brandon.
The quantity Of the Brandon crop Of
oats would seem to be incredible: if the
bundles were the size of ours and as full
heads, the crop could be hardly less than
one hundred and fifty bushels TO the acre.!
Practical farmers will be able TO Judge
whether il be possible to obtain 50 much
from an acre. Mr.. June sowed sixteen
bushels Of seed where we sowed only six
bushels: there having been no rain to
timber or burden the stalk after the oats
began to ill, it is possible the same ground
might have sustained more than double the
quantity Of oats upon our ground it would,
however, be Impossible, as we think. for
any ground TO bear an equal burden in
the seed sowed.
The editor of the Visitor travelled il
the month Of August, up the Conneticui
river valley and through the county Of Or
ange. into Washington and back through
Windsor county. Vermont. when the
drought in this part Of the country wa.
most severe. Beyond the region 0
drought, both in the valley on the New
Hampshire side aud upon the fine greer
hills Of Vermont, TO their very tops, W,
saw and admired the then growing GA
fields. There were many highly cultivat
ed fields about equal to our own-we saw
no one field that we thought better.
The permeability and great strength O
the Vermont soil on both sides Of tn
mountains. makes il better for an oat o
potato crop than any land we have eve
seen. Immense crops of both have Ihi
year been raised in the north half of tina
6late-enough surplus TO purchase all th

wish to use. Winter wheat is liltle cu
