CULTIVATION OF THE
STRA WBERRY.

One Of our English writers states
that the methed there pursued with the
most success is to transplant the bush,
to well prepared soil, as often as every
third year. The bush should be per-
mtted to form a head at about one
foot from the ground, and the limbs
should be pruned to within six or nine
inches in length, the leading shoots of
each year being so headed down in
the month of February, and the old
branches as far as practicable taken off.
The ground should be rich fresh loan
with a dry and warm sub-soll, and in
Il position admitting of free circulation
of the wind. If fresh loan cannot be
procured, use plentifully a liquid prepa-
ration in the fall of The year.

SUMNER AND WINTER.

Man should learn to accomodate him
self to the winter, us well as to the
summer of life; for the summer passes
away-the trees loose their verdure--
the earth is deprived ofits greenness-
and the sky Of its brightness. The
streamlet bubbles no more, but rushes
with impetuous flood on to the ocean.
The melody of the grove is hushed-
the busy hum of insect life is sliIled.
Nature approaches the cold and turfless
grave of winter. All! il we would but
awaken tagthe moral of which these
signs adnonish us--if we would but
read the lesson which kind providence
has printed on the face Of Nature, for
our benefit and improvement-if we
would but study the alphabet of fate,
and remember that each leaf which
falls, each fowerthat dies, is but an en-
blem of mans kindred doom--how
much of the sefshness, the discontent-
mont, the GOODNESS, the vIciousness of
ife would be swept away, and earth
would be but proof sheet of Heavens

fections, it is true, but still susceptible

THE SPIRIT OF DEM CRACY
A ,ceehy Jou,nal,
TO BE PUBLISHED IN WooDsFIED, OHIO.
PROSPECTUS
BY JANIS r. Morris.

In assuming the control of a public
Journal, custom renders it necessary,
that the Editor should point out the
course he intends to pursue. In ac-
cordance with lhisusuge, he will brief
y say, that he intends to advocate
the measures of the Democratic Party;
and that he will inscribc on his BAN
ner, as the voice of Ohio, the name of
MARTIN VAN BUREN, for Presi-
dent of the United States, Subject to
tile decision ola National Convention,)
and the name of DAVID TOD, as
The Democratic Candidate for Govern,
or of Ohio. In doing this, the Ed
itor tlatters himself, that he meets the
appreciation Of the Democracy Of
Monroe County,
In addition to the most important
News of the day, both Foreign and
Domestic, the paper will contuln The
usual entertaining and instructive va
iety. One object, which the Editor
will keep constantly IN view, AMI of
which he hopes never to loose sight,
will be to guard the interest Of the
Farmers, Mechanics, and Working
men generally, in relation to their
rights and the duties they owe to
themselves and posterity.
The Congressional and Legislative
news will be given in the proper sea-
son; and all laws affecting township
officers will be published, each year,
before they arrive for distribution.
The Editor has at considerable
expense, purchased new printing
press and materials, and therefore
asks that his feeble exertions TO please
and inform the public, may be met by
corresponding liberality on the part
ofhis fellow-citizens, who are the
friends of LIBERTY and EQUAL RIGHTS.

On deep and frequent Roushung.-
The late Mr.. Pickering, in an address
before the Essex County Agricultural
society, says--M entertain no doubt
oftbe utility of deep ploughing; not at
once in our lands in general, but by an
increase of 2 or 3 inches every annual
ploughing, until the earth be stirred
and pulverized to the depth of ten or
twelve inches. Indian corn planted in
such mass of Ioosened earth, would
not, am persuaded, ever suffer by Or
dinary droughts. Like sponge it
would absorb a vast qua nifty of rain
water, and become reservoir to sup
ply the want of that and of all other
plants. Nothing is more common in
dry summer, than the rolling ofleaves
of corn; and that circumstance is often
mentioned as an evidence of the sever
ity of the drought. This rolling of the
leaves of Indian corn, is the conse-
quence, in part, of scant manuling, but
still more of shallow ploughing. Few
perhaps, are aware of the depth to
which the roots of plants will pene-
trate in deeply loosened earth. A
gentleman much inclined to agricultu-
raj inquiries and observations, informed
me nearly fifty years age, that seeing
some men digging well in a hollow
place, planted in Indian corn then at
full growth he stopped to examine how
far its roots had descended, and he
traced them to the depth Of nine feet.
The soil was an accumulation of earth,
which had run or been thrown down
into the hollow.
The seeds Of common turnip sown
in warm weather; and on soil suffi-
cientIy moist, have known to vegetate
in about 40 hours; and in only four
days afterwards, found the plants had
sent roots to the depth Of four or five
inches. s

RAISING AND CUTTING ROOTS.

Mr.. Thomas wheeler, OF Leominster.
writes to us commencing the cuItiva-
ton of the potatoe and the carrot as the
best roots for stock. He would
have the man who has little land raise
carrots and such roots as require but
little room.
He says on 10 square rods he has
raised 80 bushels of corrots. On 81
he has raised Ice bushels-equaI t."
972 per acre. And last year on Is rods
he had 90 bushels. All the labor re-
CURED on the 81 rods, was four days
for MIN of Is and boy of 10 years
after sowing till harvesting.
He states that he has invented tools
for wedding, so that ali weeds within

drills can be Cut up and leave but little
labor for the the fingers.
lie puts from 35 to 40 loads Of COM
post manure to the acre, ploughS four
times, and harrows as many more;
sows with a seed soWer that costs 81
cents. He harvests witha long tined
dung-tork and breaks off tn, tops OF
The carrots instead of cnttlng.
Mr.. Wheeler states thathe has made
Il vegetable cutter that will cut one bu-
sci per minute.
He says his hoe is so made as to
thin out the carrots and leave not mure
than the space of one inch between
them.

There is a mechine in operation at
Piltsburg, which makes wrought iron
spikes, ofany size, with great despatch.
The machine is fed by one or two
hands as the case may be, with red-hot
rods OF iron, of the size Of the spikes
required, and the way it chews up the
hot metll and spits out the hot spike
is no ways slow! Tie head is formed
by one movement of a die, whilst il pair
olive don't know what they are called,
chiseiS, we presume, point the spike,
which drops as another is introduced,
the size being easily changed by means
ofregulating screws, in a few minutes,
as the owner may desire, to any requi-
red length or thickness.
