POETRY.
HE'S NONE THE WORSE FOR THAT,

HE'S NONE THE WORSE FOR THAT!
What though the homespun suit he wears;
Best suited TO the sons of toll,
What though on coarsest food he fares,
And tends the loom or tills the soil;
What though no gold.leafgilds the tongue,
Devoted to congenial chat?-
II RIGHT prevails, and not the WRONG,
The man is none the worse for that.
What though within the humble cot
No costly ornament is seen;
What though the wife possesses not
Her satin gowns of black and green;
What though the merry household band
Half.naked fly to ball and bat!
If conscience guides the heart and hand
The man is none the worse for that.
True worth is not a thing of dress.
OF splendor, wealth or classic lore!
Would that these trappings we loved less,
And clung to honest worth the more!
Though pride may spurn the toiling crowd,
The tattered garb, the crownless hat,
Yet God and Nature cry aloud.
The man is none the worse Tor that!

CUTTING AND CURING HAY.

When clover alone is sowed and grow
so rank as to fall down. you ought to GU
it at once, and cure it the best you can,
If it does not fall, let it stand until oni
half of the blossoms have turned brown
then cuff the day is hot and fair, let ],
remain in swath, only turn once or tytf
during the day-this preserves the leHl
which in spreading are lost; in the even
ing rake it up, and put it in small cocks
If fair weather next day, turn over thi
cocks and shake the hay lightly; and tha
evening it may be taken to the barn with
out danger Of spelling. II nnfavorabt

judgment must be the guide. Clover thu

A FACT IN DEEP FLOWING.

Having been for long time an atten
tive reader Of your paper, especially tit
farmers department, and having seel
many articles on the cultivation OF Corn, !
have concluded TO give you my esperien
for the last two years. Previous to'that,
had followed the old plan Of shallow plow
ing and high hilling. Now for the othei
way. In the spring Of l849 took flU
acres of ground that had Wheat on II ths
wear before. and had for number o
years been rather hard run by sowing j
wheat one year and planting in corn he
next. until the surface soil was worn q
low, tn at twelve bushels of wheat and sfori
ty or fifty bushels Of corn were an aver
age crop. Onthe five acres. l put eiep
ty.seven loads Of barn-yard manure, 4
greater part of it straw. only partially re.
ed, and plowed il as follows: Taking tw'
teams and two plows, began by furros
seven inches deep with ihe first Plow, thcl
followed ia the same furrow with the othe
plow, turning another furrow six inche
deep, making thirteen inches Of soil turn
ed. then narrowed and marked il, max
ing the rows four feet apart both ways
and planted the 22d of May. As soon 4
the corn was large enough to follo- p
lows, cultivated it out bcth ways, and has,
a man to follow with hoe to set up tn
hills that were partially covered up
went through it twice afterwards with thA
cultivator, but making no hills, leaving tn
surface as level as possible. cut it n
the 18th Of September, and from the sever
acres husked five hundred and six bush
els Of ears.
Now. don't call this brag crop. for
am well aware that it can be beat; but
shows the difference between half doini
work and doing it well. The corn wa
hauled off and the ground sowed to wheat
being plowed as deep as pair OF horse
could plow it; and threshed one hundred
and ninety bushels-thirty-eight bushels 4
the acre. have managed my corn grount
in the same manner this season, and fror
present appearances shall have as good
crop as last year.-Dollar Newspaper

MEDITERRANEAN WHEAT.

This wheat was introduced into the coun
try chiefly on account Of its popularity il
resisting the attack Of the Hessian fly. 1T ,
value in this respect arose from the sheati
adhering very closely 10 the stem, whi~
prevented the young worms from obtaCv
ing lodgment where they would injufa
the plant Besides this advantage. hEf
ever. the Mediterranean wheat provedcA
be valuable in this country on account NJ
its escaping the wheat-midge (weevil.) IT,
exemption from injury from this insect Il
owing to its earllness-the grain beina
generally out the way by the time the fiy
makes its appearance: II is variety tina;
generally yields well, and is heavy in pro;
portion TO its measure, But an objection
to it has been, that the millers were unwiD
ling to pay as much for it, by four to sif
cents per bushel, as for the ,chite wheats- n
the Mediterranean being light red vA
riety. Some experiments show that this
wheat is not only of highly nutritiva
quality, but that it is capable Of makin5
excellent flour. William Craig states f
the Michigan Farmer that he had sixfee&
barrels of superfne flour made from ssy
enty-fve bushels Of this kind Of wheat, %
ing at the rate of barrel TO four busht'
and forty-one pounds. He says he sd
some OF it to respectable baker in De.
troit, without letting him know what kin
of wheat it was made from, and requested
him to say how he liked it. In few weeks
he received line from the baker, saying7,
"The flour like very much--how cant
get more Of it! Think IL the best I erc,
had" Mr.. c. says neighbor told hin,
that it took as much liquid to "wet up
two loaves from the flour of Mediterraneni
wheat, as it did 10 make three loaves fro,

There was fust rate chance to talk abo-
