Clay for Sandy Soils.

"Cay,' says the author Of the Elements
Of Scientific Agriculture, :: is found to be the
most valuable application for light soils pos
siblc it consodates them and causes them
t" retain water and manure, and for the objects
of permanent Improvement is worth more,
load for load, than manurc''
A correspondent Of the Boston Cultivator
gives several !acts going to Illustrate the
above statement, some of which we cond ensr
for our readers Four years since he cartcd
several loads of clay on bank Of light sandy
loan, upon which it had been impossible to
obtain sward from its loose, blowing char
acter and situation. 1t was spread out.
plowcd under, and light coating Of clay
given on the surface, and then the land was
sown to barley and seeded down. Now the
clayed bank gives better crops than any por-
lon Of the field. A ncghbor put on a piece
OF clear sandy land. load Of clay and a load
OF muck to each rod, and sowcd to carrots.
The product was five bushels per rod.
The application of clay at the rate of fifty
loads per acre has been known to 50 change
the character OF the light frable sands, that
the prodnctivcness was kept far above that of
similar land not clayed, for twenty years, and
no doubt much longer, both bearing the same
crops and receiving the same treatment. 1t
was the opinion OF Mr. More. who took the
first premium on farms offered by our State
Agricultural Society some years since. that
tough, blue clay was Of more value for sandy
soils than the best stable manure. ton for ton,
as he had proved by the application of both
in large quantities. ''Stili," adds Mr.. How
ard Of the Cultvator, " there is much differ
ence in clay in regard to its composition, and
it would be advisable to ascertain its qualities
by small trial. before incurring great expense
in It's application" But no farmer who can
conveniently obtain clay for his sandy lands
should neglect such an obvious and valuable
means Of Improvement

Draining.

The great advantage OF land dra image, apart
from that circulation of the feeding agent
through the soil, which it promotes, depends
no donbt on the Immediate penetration ofthe
spring and summer showers, and their con-
veyancc of the atmospheric temperature into
the soil and subsoil, which, without some such
agency. would retain the winter season for the
roots Of plants, while their leaves and stems
were rejoicing in the summer sun and air
This influence is hardly injured by any merely
surface cooling which evaporation may pro-
dnce, aud the probability that drained land
experiences, during the summer. even more
of this surface cooling than land that is
