When round the heart no tendrils twine

And leave this world for worlds above.

Tobacco Culture.

The culture of tobacco is begin
ing to receive more attention from
our farmers than heretofore, and
is found quite profitable. We do
not see why the farmers Of this coun-
ty could not make it pay as well as
it does in other parts of the Sate.-
A Mr.. VIM. d. Bitter, of Berks
County, Pa, last year raised 1900
lbs. from one acre of ground; which
at present prices is worth $400, a
very fair price for "the weed"
The amount produced in Ohio In
1862 was abount 25,000,000 pounds
OF this, 100000 was produced in
the county of Monroe. The rest
came from the counties Of Belmont
Guernsey, Noble, jefferson, and the
districts adjoining. Some was
grown in the Miami country. At
least four-ffths of the crop was ex-'
ported to Baltimore, which at pres
ent prices is worth $3,000,O00.-

A sheltered locality, where the
cold winds are broken by woods
or some other protecting objects,
and having a good exposure to the
sun should be chosen. The ground
should be made rich with plenty
Of hog manure, well spaded In; and
then, just before planting, it should
be covered with brush, which is to i.
be burned on it. The burning Of
the brush serves to destroy the
seeds Of weeds, and furnishes a.
dressing of ashes, which is benef-
cial to the young plants. The time
Of sowing viii depend upon the sea-
son and latitude; from the first to
the middle Of April being the time
for Connecticut. About a square
rod Of ground is allowed for the
seed-bed for an acre. 1t would be
better to lay this out in strips of
about three feet in width, SO as tos
allow the wedding to be done with
out trampling on the bed. If the
seed is good a very small quantity
viii furnish plants for an acre, but
it is best to have an ABUNDANCE
4 teaspoonful well mixed with a
pint of ashes or soil before sowing
win be plenty. The bed being
thoroughly raked the seed is sown5
and the earth either rolled or press
ed down by a plank. When the
sowing is made late, the seed is
sometimes sprouted by moistening
it, and covering with damp clothS
and keeping it in warm place
1t takes about three weeks for the
seed to germinate, and when it
comes up the plant is exceedingly
minute. IF the bed becomes dry
it should be watered with blood
warm water. The choice of varie-
ties should be governed somewhat
by the experience of others in the
neighborhood, there being many
local sorts, which are considered
best adapted to certain districts,
The leading varieties in the market
are: the Connecticut Seed-Leaf-val-

A G RIOU ULTURAL.
Shall we Wash our shann.

My attention was called to this
subject by the proceedings of the
Vermont Wool Growers Convention
as reported in the semi-weekly Tri.
bune of September 18th, 1862, Ia
which the opinion seemed to prevail
that it was not profitable to wash
sheep, for the following reasons, viz:
1t was an expensive, unpleasant lob
and unhealthy for man and sheep
that unwashed sheep can be sheared
earlier than washed, and thereby
gain heavier coat of wOel for their
protection the next winter, that
the manufacturer can clense the
wool cheaper than the grower, and
that the disposition Of manufacture
ere to buy unwashed wool was large
ly increasing. The buyer makes
about % per cent. difference be-
tween washed wool, but no discrim-
iIation between that which is thor
oughIy clean and that Of a man who
has only washed his sheep to make
his wool sell at higher price, while
it is but little cleaner than that
sheared without washing.
The Convention seemed to be
unanimous against washing sheep,
and if it is Improbable to wash
sheep in Vermont, why not here !?
For the length of time required, 1
consider it the farmers most expen-.
sive, perpIexing and unhealthy job
L can afford and am willing to sell
my wool for number of cents less
per fleece, unwashed-and am re-.
solved to wash no more sheep unless
/ become convinced, before the first
Of June next, that wool cannot be
sold for its fair value unless il has
that old fcgy process of
being washed on the sleeps back
In the meantime l would be glad
to learn, from some candid, practi--
cal manufacturer, the difference in
if any, between cleansing
for the cards unwashed wool and
that washed on the sleeps back in
the usual manner.
l introduce this subject thus ear
ly that wool growers and buyers
may give their views on it if they
think it worthy their consideration.
