SOWING WHEAT.

much larger crops would be tho result Of a
tieer use of grain, Captain Barclay, the

earnestly urged Mr.. Marx, whose farm be
visited in this vicinity, 10 increase his al

A SUCCESSFUL EXPERIMENT IN CORN

On recent visit 10 the farm Of b. K.

grauiied at his success IN planting this i'm.

additional evidence of the superior adyan.
tages of scientific culture over that of the
common routine pursued for ages past by
the Planters Of our country
Mr.. Smith is not professionally Plant
or, but Merchant, devoting his few les-
uIe hours TO the cultivation Of his farm.
Differing from those who regard book far
ming as 1t is called as only another name
for visionary specuaIions, he is constant
reader Of Agricultural Journals, endeavors
10 profit by the discoveries of oilers, and
possessing sound Judgment, he is able to
decide on such modes Of culture as are best
adapted 10 the nature Of the soil aud the
plants he cultiyatCs.
Ga the last year much surprise was ex
pressed by Planters that Mr., Smith should
have succeeded in raising 81 bushels and
Is quarts of Cora to the acre. He then
stated that bis experiments we're not yet
compleed-that the ground, by judlcIols
management, would admit Of still closer
planting, and he hoped yet 10 succeed il
raising loo bushels to tie acre. tie doubt
ed the old theory, that wha! is called firing
in corn was the result of close planting,
but belived that II was occasloned by the
poverty of the land he believed that the
billing of the corn was not attended with
benefit; and that if the land was thorough
" preparetfproyious TO planting, ii requlr.
ed but little other attendance than that
given by the improved plough called the
cutlvator.
The land on which the present crop is
planted was originally poor and much ex-
hausted By inludicious cultivation. II was

saltpetre, rolled in gypsum aud planted on

eighteen inches apart in rows Of four feet.
Very lille use was subsequently made of
the hoe, the cultiyator was run through II
a few times the luxurlance Of the growth
kept down the grass aud rendered all fur
Their culture unnecessary. The cars are
now filled, and the crop is considered safe
from any viclssiiudes of the season. The
field has the appearance, in its rich green
foliage, Of a vigorous growth Of a young
forest. II is the finest field Of corn have
ever beheld, and il is believed by good judg-
os that the product will not fall far short Of
100 bushels per acre.
| request you to insert this notice under
a hope that the planters in our vicinity
may visit the well conducted Farm Of Mr..
Smith, examine and Judge for themselves.
An experiment has also been made on the
same farm on the effects Of calcareous ma
nures, which may also be seen TO advan
