From the American Agriculturist.
THE CORN CROP.

Indian corn will soon be among our
largest exports; anything. therefore, which
may tend to cheaper its production, and
facilitate getting it either TO home or for
cign market, will be adding so much to the
wealth Of the country. Al.present prices,
all acknowledge it to be very profitable
crop TO the Western farmer, when proper
attention is bestowed upon the culture; we
can show it 10 be equally SO in New York,
and even sterile New England.
No rnrmer should think of planting corn
nn land lhai is not in a condition TO yield
him nj least thirty bushels to the acre, and
fliy bushels would be sill more profitable.
If his land cannot produce this, he had
better cultivate II in some other crop till
il can. ] j. yields forty to fifty bushels
per acre, under an ordinary rotation, The
stalks in the Northern States will pay all
expenses Of cultivation, leaving the corn q
clear profit, ufier dcducling the interest OF
ihc money on the land. In this cnse we
assume that The stalks are cut up close to
he ground, with The corn un-then proper.

,he cutting machine before feeding them
on, 10 the stock. Many sound, practical
farmers, contend tlIat, cured and prepared
in this way. good quality Of corn stalks
is:us valuable for cattle fodder as hay. On
an average, we do not think so, but will
put ,hem down al half the present value OF
ha, herc-say five dollars per ton. Adj
m,ling that they average four tons per
acre, well dried, their value would be
twenty dollars, which is certainly more
