The Cultivation of Corn,

The best mode Of proceeding IN relation
to corn is to pillow very deeply in the first
instance preparatory to the reception Of
the seed, and to keep Tire surface SOIL
light and loose in the after-c
Everybody knows that while corn strikes
is roots to great debth, whenever the
nature of the soil will admit of so doing.
Its lateral roots spread out in perfect
network between the rows. Now, the
most serious matter to be guarded against
III raising corn are the drough that pre-
vail so frequently at or about mid-sum-
mcr, and washing rains when the corn is
planned on slopes and hillsides. Deep
blowing protects the plant in a very
great degree from the effects of drought,
by stirring up moisture below the point
OF rapid evaporation. In the case Of
heavy rains it has also the advantage of
PERM ting he water 10 percolate through
the soil, instead of holding it in solu-
ton, as is the case with shallow plowing
on an under soil, which by constant and
sloyculy prac.ic becomes of the nature
of hardpan. If, then, the soil has been
deeply stirred in the first instance, sur
face tillage is the only thing needed in
the afier-culture' We most decidedly
object to blowing or cultivating the land
TO considerable depth af, the growth
Of the corn is well advanced, because
this cannot be done without inflic ing.
serious injury to The great mass of fill
rous roots which extend laterally but
few inches below he surface, and which
are constantly extending themselves in
search Of fresh food throughout the
whole period of growth. The af er-cul-
ture should in no instance be Of nature
to interfere with the free ramiication Of
these delicate roots, for by larceratng
them We cut Off just so many mouths as
we cut off iibcrs, and thus deprive the
plant OF that amount of nutrincnt which
these mouths would otherwise have fur
nlshcd. The rule, then, is deep and
thorough blowing before planting, toler-
ably deep cul ivation before the roots
begin to extend to any great distance
from the stalk, and shallow stirring sub
scquently. 1t is customary with some
farmers 10 run light harrow over the
corn as soon as the tender blade makes
its appearance above the surface, and
the practice is good one in loans and
IN all soils of light texture. But where
the soil contains preponderance of clay
and Is apt to bake or form a surface
crust after rain, the danger is that in
breaking up the clod the young shoot
will suffer injury. In such eases, 1t is
much better to use the hoe in looscninr
the compact earth about the place, and
to let the shovel pillow and the cultivatcr
loosen he intervals between the roots
both ways. Frequent stirring of the
soil IS absolutely necessary from the
time the plant appears above the ground
unul harvest suspends, perhaps tempo
rarlly, perhaps entirely, the work OF
after culture. -RVrW Registcr.

The Horses Freq,

The Frog of horse or colt that has
never been sbod is full, prominent and
callous ; it is solid, wedge-like sub
stance Of horn, extending from the cleft
to near the point Of the toe, soft and
elastic within. Tie horncy covering
protects the nayicular bone and its
removal in the process of shoeing, often
occasions very painful disease known
as navicular Lri is. y very distinguished
surgeon asscrs that when once tie outer
covering and dubious enlargement Of the
frog is removed or sliced of, the navicu-
lar region is in danger, and the parts
within the hoof, such as the navicular
bone and coffin joint, arc liable to con-
cussion. | believe that al! persons con-
vcrsant with the facts in the case, will
agree that the cushion-like substance
known rs the frog operates so rs to guard
against jar and conclusion. 1t is part
of the basis Of animal structure, and
therefore it should be pared with caution
Cut away the frog, and we remove solar
support, and thus prevent the sole COM
ing III contact with the ground. The
best policy is not to remove too much of
either bars or frog. Wemay remove the
rough and loose portions of the same, or
in other words about as much as the ami
NAL without shoes would naturally wear
oil and even this is not always good
policy, for the ragged and uneven parts
often serve as a protection to the sub
Ip cole fro,
look better when nicely pared, but health
does not consist alone Of good appear
ance.
In former times, ere the anatomy of
the foot was understood, the writer's and
practitioners advocated the cutting away
of great portion of the frog and bars as
an important fea ure of the art of shoe
ing. One author has tried to &c smoothc
the matter over " in the following lam
guage: The frog offers so Lutte re-
slstanco to the knife, and presents such
an uneven surface, that it requires more
philosophy than some blacksmitls pos
sess to resist the temptation to slice it
away, despite a knowledge that it would
be far wiser to let it alone"
One of the best authorities on this
subject informs us that he never allows q
knife to approach the frog, because the
experiment has shown that the frog pos
sesses less power of reproducing horn
than some her parts of the foot and
the same person has had horses in his
possession for a period of five years
whose frogs were never pared.
Then the question may arise, how is
the frog to disenoumbcr itself of it's SUI
perfuous surfaces l answer, nature
has provided means-the frog surfaces
are occasionally Or periodically sloughed
Or cast off, and when this does occur in
the natural way, it will be found that
new horney covering has formed-a small
Ter frog appears yet it is complete
one-much better than that which is
ariilicially produced by the drawing
knife. DR.. Dodd.
