From the american Farmer.
LlME-MARL.
EnrMer.

If your arabic land has never been
lined, or marled-or if from IL to ID
years have interviewed since it was, you
may very properly conclude that it needs
one or the other.
The best way to apply lime to thin,
sandy land, would be to take a compost
in the proportion of % bushels of lime
or so bushels Of mari, and 20 double
horse carloads of clay and marsh mud,
10 loads of each, to the acre; make it up
into heap, to let it lay for a few weeks,
work it over, taking care to mix the
matters well, and mix it with the mass,
l bushel of plaster, repeat this twice;
plough the ground you intend to apply
it to this fall; early, spread the compost
evenly over the surface, harrow it in,
and permit it to lie until next spring,
when it should receive two ploughings,
and as many borrowings, then roll, and
it will be fit to receive manure and
crop.
To stiff clays not in very good heart,
you may give fifty bushels of lime, or
100 bushels of mari.
10 still lands, Astounding IN vegetable
matter, you may apply 100 bushels of
lime or 900 bushels of mari.
All lined, or married. lands, should be
set in clover as speedily after the appli-
cation, as is admissible by the nature of
your rotation, it being desirable to have
in the soil, good body Of mould for the
calcareous matter to operate upon.
.Mould.-Bcar in mind, that mould
is the life-blood of soil, and that no land
can be very productive, unless it or SEINE
other substance, identical in its nature,
represent.
Clorer. Glover should be cut as it
comes in bloom, permitted to remain in
the swarth 4 or hours, then cured in
cocks.
