SOWING GRAIN IN ORCHARDS.

We frequently see this folly along the rail-
road lines, in our summer travel. Here we
see splendid crop Of rye. and there Wig
orors growth Of oats or barley. Indian corn
is frequently planted in yodng orchard.
We believe the practice to be bad policy in
hushandry. A neighbor ofours has an apple
orchard set about ten years since. He
took admirable care Of it for several years,
washing the trunks and the larger limbs with
strang soapsnds, and manuring them album
dainty. The orchard was beautiful sight,
and began to bear fruit. Three years ago he
sowed Il down with rye--the crop was good
one, but proved disastrous to his orchard II
checked The growth Of wood, andit has borne
no fruit since. Facts, akin to this, are abnn-
dant IN the experience Of farmers. We can
not tell all the causes II this injury TO fruit
trees. Any grain is heavy draft upon land
and probably uses up the material which the
Young trees require to perfect their fruit
grain crop shades the soil very narh, also
aud this must prove injurious. II is well t,
continue Young orchard under cultivation
Cor several years, but the ground should onl,
be cropped with roots, and abundantiy manur
ed. An orchard will pay Us FOR our trouble
according TO the capital and labor we eSpen'
upon its cultivation. Amsriean AgrieEturist

rIRsr PRINCIPLES oF FARMING.

1. All lands on which clover or the gras-
ses are grown, must either have lime in them
naturally, or that mineral must be artificial
" supplied in the form Of stone lime, oyster
lime or mari.
.. All permanent improvement Of lands
must look to lime as a basis.
8. No lands can be preserved in high
state of fertility, unless clover and the gras-
ses are cultivated in the course Of rotation.
4. Mould is indispensable in every sol,
and healthy supply can alone be preserved
through the cultivation Of clover and the
grasses, the turning in Of green crops, or BY
the application Of compost rich in the cle-
mcnts Of mould.
are increased in value, and their benefits pro-
longed, by admixture with plaster, salt, or
with pulverized charcoal.
6. Deep plowing greatly improves the pro-
ductiyc powers Of every variety of soil that
Is not wet.
:. Subsoiling sound lani-that is, land
that il not wet--is also emincntly conducive
to increased production.
8. All wet lands should be drained.
~. All grain crops should be harvested be-
fore the grain is thoroughly ripe.
10. Clover. Is well as the grasses intend.
cd for hay, should be moved when in bloom.
III. Sandy lands can be most eilectually
improved by clay. When such lands require
lining or ~harling, the lime or marl is most
benefcially applied when made into compost
with clay. In Stacking, salt brine is better
than water.
1s. Draining Of wet lands and marshes adds
to their value, BY making them to produce
more, and BY improving the health Of neigh
borhoods.
10. To manure or lime wet lands. Is "a

ish the soil, while il decreases production.
Is. A bushcl Of plaster per acre, sOwn
broadcast over clover, will add one hundred
per cent. to It's produce
10. Periodical applications of ashes tend
TO keep the integrity Of soils, BY supplying

horses, and will afford him nucleus around
which, in few years, will be clustered ami
mails Of all kinds which he desires; for the
wool and the increase Of his flock can be sold
and the money reinvested, or an exchange be
made Of them for other cattle.
We recollect, not over twelve or fifteen
years ago, when sheep were slaughtered eat
the town of East Bloomfield, in this State, by
the hundred thousand annually; their car
casses. except the hams, were tried up whole,
and tallow sold at New York wholesale, at
six cents the pound. The hams were distri-
buted by peddlers all over Ontario and the
neighboring counties, at one dollar and hall
the hundred weight, and farmers, then, con-
sidered sheep-laising profitable employment,
The dressed carcasses of just such sheep will
sell in our streets to day for four or five cents
per pound, and the pelt is worth, at the same
time, one dollar more !; thus netting the far
mer from three to four dollars per head, and
good fat sheep on the foot at New York ci-
ty will bring from five to eight dollars. We
know young farmer in neighboring towr
who refused, last fall, ninety-fve dollars fol
fifty good grade lambs one year old thi'
spring.
Giving, therefore, all the complaints abou
the low price of wool due weight, does mo-
the consideration of the increase for market
ing purposes render sheep husbandry pro
ftable employment Every farmer who rails
es grain, can keep moderate flock of sheer
without materially adding to the expenses o
the farm. With proper care and attention
such as every man is hound by the laws q
humanity to bestow upon his animals, very
little sickness will occur; the chances o
loss are not half so great as in the raising o
wheat.
Mutton is one OF the most nutritious, pal
atable and healthful Of meats, and comes il
excellent time upon the farm during sum
mer, after the season Of veal is past, and be
fore the time Of autumn killing comes on
Amid the laborious duties of haying or har
vest, fat sheep to take the place Of so mucl
salt pork as is usually consumed, is duly ap
preciated by laborers in the field.
