Period OF Maturity 81 which Wheat
sshouid be CIT.


The usual practice among farm
ers is to let wheat stand, before it
is cus, until the straw is entirely
changed in co,of from green to yell
low, and the grain has become hard
and nearly or quite dry. Numer-
Gus experiments have been made in
this country, but particularly in
England, to determine at what Pc
ROD of ripening it is best to cut
wheat, having in view the greatest
yield OF grain; and that Of the
best quality. 1t is we'll known to
those who have investigated the
subject, that the ripening Of the
seed consists entirely Of certain
chemical processes, We cannot here
attempt to explain, that are of i'm
portance to be be considered in Or
Der to make the most Of the crop
after it has been grown. The i'm
nature grain of wheat, in its early
stage is found to BE filed with q
milky Quid, which gradually changes
in consistence, from this milky
state, to one more firm and solid.-
These experiments have been insti-
tl.tcd to determine with accuracy at
what period Of this change the grain
shout be harvested to secure the
greatest advantages. The unani-
nous opinion appears to be, that if
gram is cut soon after the straw
below the head, has turned yellow,
while the lower part of the stem is
still green, and the seed yet remains
in set and doughty state, the
grain viii weigh more TO the bushel
and yield greater amount from a
given space Of ground, that more
and better flour is made from it, and
where the straw is to be fed to stock
!. is relished better and is more nu-
ttitious than if the grain was allowed
to sand until it becomes fully ripe.
These experiments have been so
frequently made and with such uni
form results, that we feel unwilling
to Let tho coming harvest pass with
cat again reminding our readers of
the fact. A very careful series Of
experiments were made Of this char
acter some years since, in York
s"ira, England, by Mr. Hannah,
and he sums up the loss, By shclliug,
I'D i the weight and quality of the
g.a-a from letting it stand until fll-
..le, equal to Sc per acre, a sum,
u even aolf Of it, which should not
