MULCHING.

This is word much used is agri.
cultural writing, of which but few
people know the meaning. 1t SIM
ply means covering over the surface
of the soil, where a crop is planted
with a coat Of anything. To lay
down Irish potatoes on the surface
of the ground, and cover it over
with straw, is to mulch them. To
cover the surface in a strawberry bed
with sand $50 as not to cover the
plants,) is to mulch them-which
is said to be an excellent practice,
to cause them to bear. Mulching
is an excellent plan for several kinds
of garden, or: horticultural products.
One great advantage of it is, keep
ing the ground free from grass and
weeds8thus saving an amount Of
of labor more than equal, perhaps
to cultivation. But where the crop
is an annual (has to be sown or plan.
ted every year.) the soil should first
be thoroughly prepared, by deer
blowing or spading, and pulveIization
as it will not admit of being stir
red after mulching unless the coal
be removed. The loose and moist
state in which rmulching will keeI
it, will pretty we'll compensate fol
this. however. The different ma
terials for mulching will depend up
on the kind of crop. Watermelon:
will do much better to be mulcbet
with straw, as; we'll as strawberries
These last cau be spadad, or the
ground stirred between the plants
before thegmulching is put on.
