Fall plowing--why beneficial.

We have repeatedly referred to this
subject, and have shown how this
practice operates benefcially upon the
soil. There is still another view to be
taken OF it, worthy Impractical consid-
Grafton. II Is perhaps true,in general
that when fields are plowed in the fall.
a larger amount Of vegetable matter
is buried in the soil, than when the OPP
Grafton is deferred to the spring. The
browsing Of cattle, and perhaps a more
thorough consumption by swine, roam
ing freely over les surface, added TO
the effect Of winds and storms, and the
natural changes which take place, when
left on the surface essentially diminish
the quantity and quality Of the stock
and stubble. left originally by the reap
er. This difference, in particular ca
ses. may be Of no little practical i'm
portance.
But there Is another and more inn
portant difference. Green crops decay
much morerapidly than dry stubble.-
II, therefore, green vegetable matter

spring growth receives far greater
benefit from il than II the same mat

Large And Small Trees.

We have had some experience in
transplanting both kinds, taken from
the nurseries. There is no more risk
in removinga pear or apple tree, four
or Eve years from the bud, than one
year from il. We are persuaded that
we have lost three years by setting
small trees where we might have set
largo. The large apple trees from
Dyer's nursery, that We put out two
years ago, have made as much wood
rs smaller ones. Some OF them have
blossomed, and the apples set both
years, and as they are full of fruit
buds, we look for sample Of their
fruit next season.
Il may not generally be known that
large sized apple trees, say two or three
inches al butt, cost no more than the
smallest size. Nurserymen. If they
have large stock on hand, have no
other resource than 70 cut and burn
them, as they grow beyond the proper
size for transplanting, so that they
are glad TO dispose Of them at that
price. Large pear trees, especially
those upon ounce, are most expensive.
We have purchased some nine years

consider IL much better economy than

Whatever then tends TO healthy

plowed under, do perform this service
in much more speedy manner than
dry stubble, and hence, the careful
farmer will endeavor to avail himself
Of all the benefits he can thus secure
to his land.
1t is in accordance with this fact
that in those districts where the art
Of agriculture is carried on in
the most thorough manner, green
crops are often raised for the very
purpose Of being plowed under
Clover, buckwheat, turnips, and va
rious other crops are sown with the
same design. Sometimes, two OF
three such crops arc thus buried in the
soil in asingle season. It's on this
principle in connection with another
which regards exact similarity in the
character Of the elements furnished
and those demanded by the young
plant, that manure of the pruning ol
the grape is more efficient for grapes
than almost any other application. In
dry, loose, sandy soils, we doubt
whether fall blowing, Of itself, is to b,

nothing which teaches different les

farmer will turn up the subsoil, which
is often clay, and mingle that with th,
