IN Oatstak Higher Man The Bunker Hill Monument!
In the Enquirer Of The 25th ult., | have seen Two
notices of extraordinary punches of small grain-one
OF wheat, numbering sixty stalks-the other of rye,
numbering 66 stalks. | have now hanging up in my
porch, in true farmer style, a cluster Of oalstalks, be-
lleved 10 be the product of one grain, numbering sixty.
n'ne, averaging SIX feet in height, and the stalks be
lieved 10 contain, (having counted several, )nne hundred
grains each, making SIX thousand four hundred and
e~ighty.slx grams. 1t was a solitary volunteer, in the
mus; of ~ meadow, on the Chckahomlny river, and
the draught on the soil, for It's production and support,
was 20 great, that not a sp'rc Of vegetation could be
seen, in a circumference OF several feet around its
base. My friend and ~neighbor, Mr.. Richard Hill, who
saw it while growing, remarked, that each stalk was
large enough tor a fishing rod. If the combined length
OF the whole bunch had been extended into 4 single
spirc, it would have over-topped The Bunker Hill Monu-
ment some two hundred feet, and the humble lark,
which ~fed.upon lis dainty kernels, would scarcely have
veniured so lofty a flight for It's delicate morsel.
