ONCE PLou6HING FOR WHEAT.-There is no
grain raised in the middle States which pays bet
ter profit than wheat although at present its yield
is somewhat uncertain, owing tn the iDsuii, rust,
Thcse should not discourage the agriculturist but
rather incite to more earnest search for remedies
therefor. AS il is the season to commence the
preparation of the wheat ground by the farmer,
have thought il might not be irrelevant to advance
a few ideas and suggestions on this subject
The old mode of ploughing the ground in June
and letting it lie until September, and then cross
ploughng, turning up the old, partly decayed sod
to the sun, wasting thus portion Of its substance
and strength is still practiscd by many farmers
Better plough your sod ground just before harvest
or Immediately after if you choose to the depth OF
seven or eight inches, then thoroughly harrow. Az
ter which put a good stee-t cultivator, and
ply that over the ground two or three times, as
your tiae may permit and the nature OF the ground
require. After going through with this process,
SOW on your wheat and cultivate it in--from the
first to the tenth of September is the most suitable
time.
The double profit to be derived from this man
agement proves it's proprety. But some may say
that the strength of the buried sod cannot assist
the early growth of wheat. l think it can and
does. The vegetation turned under, let it be
clover any other grass, to the depth of eight
ten inches, but add TO the depth of the soil as
it decomposes and the frequent and repeated use
OF the cuvator will better prepare the ground for
the growing crop, than it could be by twice
poughing, turning the sod to the surface and ex-
posing it to the free evaporation, and the conse-
uuent loss of it's manurial gases.
1t is evident that seeds of any description require
the combined presence of heat toaler, and Oxygen,
to induce healthy termination. There would be
greater amount of heat from the decay of the sod
turned under than otherwise--tpdter would better
be retained, and for longer period, and, at the
same time, larger supply of Oxygen would arise
from its decomposition beneath, than upon the sur
face. These conceive to be clear and self evil
dent facts, which every candid and observing far
lner will at once see, and, trust, concur in the
adoption of but ''once ploughing for wheat where
the ground will possibly admit it.

GROVER & BAKERS PATENT SEWING
MACHINE.


TINE inventors and proprietors, after long time
Il spent in perfecting and simplifying their in
vention, and having now received United States
Letters Patent on the same. prepared to offer
for sale the exclusive Right of Territory for States,
Counties and Cities; Machines with the right to
use. This is entirely original invention, no.
thing at all similer having ever before been offered
to the pubic the right of the invention is therefore
uncontested. Our Machine, by the of two nee
dies, supplied with thread from spoos, forms a
,elo stitch, which will not open ravel-in fact,
fast stitch. 1t is adapted TO the sewing on all kinds
of fabrics, also on leather, in straight circular,
or other seams. 1t is capable of being worked at
great speed, and requires but little power. By
means of the feed carriage, which is compact and
convenient, the stitch may be regulated to any
length. The needle strikes perpendicularly upon
the table of the Machine, AND affords an opportuni
ty for sewing far in from the edge of the cloth as
may be desired. The Machine is worked by trea-
die hand or power is easily regulated, and, being
compact and simple in construction, is not liable
to get out of order We are confident that our
Machine on trial, will corroborate all the state
ments here made. The price of one Of our Ma
chimes, complete, (Which will be carefully packed
to go TO any part of the world,) is hundred and
twenty five dollars. Applications for right of ter
ritory, or the machines with right to use, we'll
as all inquiries respecting them, and all orders
closing money for machines, will be promptly at
tended to. All letters to be postpaid, and adj
dressed to the proprietors and patentees.
