MtLLEr-Wew would advise farmers to pro cure q little of this seed for cultivation. It is worth raising either for seed or for fodder. When sown broadcast, at the rate of peck to the acre, and cut in the milk, it makes ex. cellent fodder for cattle, and produces at the rate of one and half to three tons the acre. When sowed thinner and cut later, on good corn ground, il produces from forty to seventy bushels of seed per acre. This is admirably adapted for poultry, but is often fed to cattle and hogs. If ground it is considered equal to corn. It may be sown any time from the middle of April to the middle of June There Is good article on the subject of this plant i'll fessenden's Complete Farmer, to which we would refer the reader. The seed, with iull directions, can be procured at Georges agricultural and seed store, in this city.

AGRICULTURAL.

WINTER " HEAT, TO PREVENT NTNTEf hHLiNG.-Winter whear'Was formerly raised very well in this vicinity, and can be now on '' burnso or new land recently cleared.- We attribute the difference 10 this fact, that in new lands, there is covering of loose mould, or seuH, which prevents this elevation by the ifosts, and, therefore, the crop suc- ceeds
 Mr Mellen's observations are to the same effect. We quote the following from his re- marks; "The question recurs, can fail sown wheat he successfully raised on old land in the regions where il ioutishcd when the lands were new: ] maintain it can, and will give the results of my observations. Many years since, l knew q farmer in the county of Sara toga, to succeed well in cultivatng the crop oilallsown wheat, when his neighbors wholly failed and abandoned the crops, by reason ol it's freezing out. This successful farmer pre- pared manure from his barnyafd, the straw, scraPiBgs of the yard, Sc, and put these in gradients into compost heaps. He summer fallowed or sufficiently ploughed his land ; from which he had taken crop, and then smoothed the funoWs with the harrow. He then drew out his compost manure, twenty five to thirty loads to the acre, and evenly spread 1t over Inc surface, sowed his wheat on the same, and then narrowed 1t in, incor- porating the surface of the soil and manure together. The result was that he always succeeded with his crops of winter wheat when his neighbors, who pursued different culture, failed. His wheat, illus treated, was never winter killed.o
 Mr. Mellen relates many other experiments of a similar kind, which always resulted in success. Some experiments formerly tried by Chas. Vaughan, Esq, corroborate the above statements. He sowed oats with win fer wheat i'll August or September, so that it would come up pretty thick Before winter the eats became killed, and falling upon the wheat, afforded very good protection to il. We think that, by observing the above rules, winter wheat might, at least, be grown as successfully with us as winter rye.

SHEEP AND LAMBs.--Farmers here, gene rally, keep their bucks from the sheep in the fall, so as to bring the lambs in May Per haps sheep arc weaker ill April and May than at any season of the year. My sheep began to lamb this year in January, and from that to the last of February, and, notwithstanding the excessive cold, every lamb Is alive, and now cat as much hay, according to their size, as the sheep. very ltfle attention will have every lamb, and their extra value for the nutchef, E not the only advantage; they breed at year old, which May lambs seldom dc they are perfectly hardy. and not like spring lambs, pinched and stunted by the next winter. Cold will never hurt sheep or lambs that come in the winter, if kept from storms and out of the force of cold winds.

PEAcH TREES FROM SEED.--We have seve- ral times been asked whether any gwen kind of peach can, with anything like certainty, be produced from the seed, We answer, all experience proves, if anything can be proved, that ii cannot The very fact that new varie- ties of peaches are produced every year .eutii- cisnty proves thatthe seed will sport. Never- theless, several kinds of peaches, the Heath, the Blood peach, the Georgia Indian, Ca peach with red ground and faat II defined yellow stripes,) the Yellow beach, the White Blos- som, and possibly other sorts, will produce, from seed, fruit of the same general character or family; and this fact accounts for the pos tive assertion sometimes made that given variety may in all cases be propagated from seed + tree is entirely isolated, seedlings from such tree will probably produce fruit like that of the parent tree, but when seed taken from a common orchard are planted, variety almost equal to the number of stones may in general be expected, and most of the sorts will be exceedingly poor.

INTERPRETATION OF THE THROAT CURED BY ALuM.-Powdered alum, applied by the finger to the part affected, very seldom fails to cure inflammation of the throat in a few days The efficacy ofthis remedy, says the author, NJ. Valpeau, is as marvellous as 1t is rapid. Employed the first, second, third, or fourth day, while there is yet no abscess in the tonsils, t arrests all symptoas as it were by enchantment; the fever abates, the swell ling diminishes, the appetite returns and the convalescense is quickly decided and com pleted By showing that this remedy Is as powerful in simple inflammation as in laflasa- nation of the tonsils, NJ. yalpeau hopes that practitioners will no longer hesitate to make proof of its efficacy, and rescue thereby hun dreds of human beings from the grave.

fIEDGEs.-We have seen itfrequently stated by the correspondents and. editors of New England agricultural papers that the buck thorn is proved there to be far the best plant for hedges. The seed or plants can be pro cured III Boston. l. also grows from cut tings. A correspondent i'll late Massachu- sets Ploughman says:
 After some experience in growing them, and from frequent and continued observations, should select the buckthorn. My reasons for giving the preference to this variety, are the facts that 1t is easy of culture, of very rapid vegetation, having beautiful foliage, is compact and unyielding in it's natural growth, and is more hardy than any other variety It also possesses certain medical qualities which render ii impalatable and nauscous to cattle, and deters them from browsing upon
 t. The usual age at which the plants are set
 is two yetrs. and as the price now asked for them by the nurserymen is rather high, it would perhaps be the most economical plan for farmer, who may wish to set consid arabic length of hedge, and who has land and manure to spare, to procure seed and raise the plants for himselfo Doliar Farmer.
