Culture of the Sorghum.

In the south of France, where it
fiourishes with great vigor, it is gener-
ally sown from the latter end of April
to the beginning of June. About the
10th of May, however, would certainly
be the earliest period advisable in this
country, as the frost would be apt to
cutit down and retard its future growth.
The seed should be stepped twenty-four
hours before sowing; and the land be-
ing well pulverized, if the crop is in
tended for moving, Mr.. Clarke recon-
mends that it should be put in drills at
10 inches distance, and 10 inches apart
in the rows. If the plant is allowed
to mature itself, then the rows should
be 16 to IS inches apart, and the plants
singled QUITO II inches from each other.
The quantity of seed in the latter case
will be 6 lbs per acre, and in the former
IL lbs. 1t should be put in about in
ches deep.
The first hoeing should be given
lightly, after it has been above the
ground two or three weeks, taking care
not to mould-up the plants which would
be likely to injure the tender rootlets,
which are then throwing out their til
lers. After the latter period the growth
of the plants is very rapid, in and six
weeks it is fit for cutting, being three
or four feet high. This cutting, which
takes place about the beginning of July
is the most proper time for making into
hay, on account of the season. 1t is,
however, quite as valuable for green
fodder for all kinds of animals, who are
equally fond of it. BY the middle of
of August it is fit for the scythe again;
and if the season'is favorable, third
cutting will be produced in September
OF October. Cows are particularly
fond of it, and, as the French says,
would pawn their chenisettes (if they
had ANY, to purchase it. They yield
more and better milk when fed on it,
than on any other kind of food.
Another plan of management is to
SOW it in July, and cut it green from
September to November; after which
the stubs should be covered with fresh
dung, to preserve it from the frost dur
ing the Winter. 1t will then begin to
shoot in April, and will be ready to cut
the latter end Of May; and the second
cutting takes place, for hay, in July.
1t is a question, however, whether, in
our climate, at present, or until the plant
has been acclimated with us, this plan
would not be rendered abortive by the
frosts of Spring.
A third plan is to SOW at the period
between the latter end of April and the
beginning of June, and allow the plant
to arrive at the highest degree of ma
turity our climate will admit. At that
stage of growth it has been found that
the plant cantains double the quantity
of saccharine matter that it does when
cut not ripe, or in its green state
