The Market Gardeners of London.


"The market gardeners OF London" says
a gardener Of Judgment care skilful, in,
dustrious men. Some time ago ! was en-.
gagged for three or four months along side a
market garden of twelve or fifteen acres in
the neighborhood; things were exceedingly
well done. In it there were small frames to-
the numbero of fifty or sixty lights, the greater
part of which were full of young lettuces
sown in November as thickly as mustard
and cress. The lights were Of course off in
the day, and the young stuff looked green
and beautiful. The greater part of the gar
den or land, which is light and workable at
all times, had been turned up to the weather.
About the first of March they put about
half of the garden in long beds six feet wide,
and about eighteen inches apart. Two lads
with pistols and rattles, and voices strong
enough, were employed running up and
down the garden to keep the birds of. The
men next nicely smoothed the other half Of
the ground with rakes, for the reception of the
lettuces, the London or Brighton COS, which
were planted foot apart all ways. They
were planted so beautifully and exactly that
they seemed to be in straight rows from all
points Of view. The frames were then put
on half sunk new beds Of warm dung, and
into them were planted cucumber plants,
which thrived and bore well q money max
Ing crop. The radishes were ready about
the first week in May, II remember Alright,
and'sold for ei0 an acre; twelve or thir-
teen women are employed in punching them:
The lettuces were soon ready; got bit Of
bast about them few hours before they
were pulled, and sent to Covent Garden;
brought fl0 al acre more than the radi.hcs.
Vegetable marrow succeeded the radishes,
and French beans the lettuces, generally
speaking. After these came crop Of cab
bagp, or what are called coleworts, for winter.
There were small patches Of other vegetables

sowing Grass Seed IN che Fan.

The Ohio Cultirator says " The practice
Of sowing grass seeds in thefall is becoming
more and more popular, and in such a fall
as VIC are having this year, grass seeds can
be put in to better advantage than usual.
The frequent showers keep tho land moist
enough to ensure the speedy vegetation of
the finest grass seeds. 1t is one of our doc
trines that grass seed should be put in for a
full crop, the same as wheat or any other
crop, aud not be subjected to the overshad.
owing and dwarfng Of acrop of wheat or
oats. The benefits of this are, that when
sown as full crop upon well prepared sol,
the grass takes immediate possession of the
land, to the exclusion of foul stuff, and you
have crop Of clean hay at once instead Of
its taking several years to run out the weeds
The fall seeding is more particularly adapted
to timothy grass, TO timothy and clover, red
top, fowl meadow, etc. Orchard grass and
red clover will do well in the early fall, il the
ground is not too spouty, Kentucky blue
grass is best sown late in the winter, when
it can catch little frost and snow"
We had supposed that as general thing,
clover did do well sown in tho all. What
is said Of the advantages of sowing Timothy
alone in the autumn, is true; but if the
wheat and Timothy together were on wsll
prepared SOIL" there would then be no neces.
sity to wait (" several years to run out the
weeds before obtaining clean crop Of
hay. Genesee Farmer.

agriculture.



We have visited more than fifty Flour
mills W ithin the last six months, and have
always endeavored to make such inquiries as
would result to the benefit of the grain
grower.
There is one cause Of loss among tho
grain growers of California, which can be
remcdicd If they will. We have alluded to
Il several times, and yet the cause Of loss
increases rather than diminishes, rnd this is,
thevery poor manner Of cleaning wheat. We
have taken particular pains to ascertain the
amount Of loss, and the result is as follows:
Of all the wheat brought to the mill there is
anabsolutelos to the grower Of flee per cent
This is real loss now, but one that could
be saved. It occurs from want of knowl.
edge by those who MreSh and clean the
wheat, or the careless manner in which It Is
done. Loose heads, straw, broken wheat,
cheat barley, oats, mustard, &c, arc mixed
up with the wheat, so as to detcriorate its
value in price, as well as waste in weight.
Those who are interested in this matter
should take time to see the 'oasts at the
Flour Mill, and then they would begin to
reflect, for all this must come out Of them.
It is customary at tho mill, in exchanging
-four for wheat, to deduct q wastage Of four
or five per cent; this is certain loss at once.
But there is kcGrier loss, and VIC desire to
show this to our cultivators. BY this care
less manner of cleaning, every five bags in
one hundred is waste, and for this the grower
has to furnish bags he pays for harvesting
these five bags, for hauling, freight, and
storage; and when il comes to milling, these
FIVE bags are paste, dead loss to the grower.
It would be easy for the grower to make an
estimate Of how much FIVE bags are worth; I;
but Il isnot only five bags-it is five in every
hundred, fifty in a thousand, and fee hundred
bags to the grower Of ten thousand, bags Of
wheat. The causes Of this loss we have in
part enumerated, but if farmers would be
mere careful and house their machinery so
as to keep il in order, and then use il with
care, and thoroughly clean their wheat, their
saving would surprise them; for after cart
ing FIVE bags Of waste in ever hundred to
the mill as the reward for labor in cleaning
the wheat which could and should be cleaned
on the farm; and after It has been carted to
the mill and deducted from the crop, the
farmer buys back that very caste for chicken
or hog feed; that is, he deducts the waste Of
Of his Own crop which he has carted to the
mill and then buys il back again and hquls
ithOme; whereas, Il he had properly cleaned
his wheat in the first place, he would have
kept the chicken feed at home, had only his
95 bags to haul, and would get pay for his
95.
What is actually the farmers loss who
raises large crops9 The grain grower who
raises 100000 worth of wheat, loses $1,000
syear by the careless manner Of cleaning
bis wheat, and this fact can be ascertained
by any one who will takc the trouble to in.
auirc into the matter We have thus pro
sented this subject in detail, and hope pro-
per attention to the matter will be awak.
