DEPTH OF PLANTING. 1t is well enough
for those who till the soil, to consider tho
most successful means of securing large har.
vests, and to assist them 10 scientific cosclu,
sion on one important point, the following has
been published. Farmers read il: -rs'. ~
An experiment was tried last season 10
Pennsylvania to determine the depth at which
wheat should be planted. Sixteen seeds TAX
en- from one fine ear were planted at 8 inches
distance. Two were deposited at exactly h
inch deep, two at 2 inches deep; two at 8
inches deep; two at inches deep; two at
inches deep; two at inches 'eep; two at Z
inches deep; and two at inches deep. The
land was in good heart, and finely pulverized
or mellorated ] foot deep. on purpose for tie
experiment; the situation facing the South,
and in the middle Of an open asld. At har...
vest the result was as follows, viz: Thoee de.
posted at one inch desp were almost turned
out Of the ground, had tillered very little,
and the grain lean. !.
Ditto deposited al inches tillered largely,
and stoo upright on the ground, were well
filled, and excellcnt grain. Ditto deposited at
inches deep, tilIered more largely, and bad
stronger straw and larger ess, -ripened well
and seasonably. Ditto deposited at 4 inches,
nearly the same. Ditto deposited at 8 inches,
lid not tiler 30 much as those deposited'at 4
inches, neither did they produce such stroug
81 alks, nor so much grain. Ditto Deposited at
6 INCHES deep, tillered less. and did pot. ppen
as we'll ae the above. Ditto deposited at, q
inches, produced only one stalk; il shriveled
to nothing tefore midsummer. Ditto de.
posted at inches deep, never came above
ground. !. ~
The result of this experiment, and variety
of others made at different times on different
seeds, and 10 different soils, give reason 10
conclude, that from two inches deep to five ia
the greatest latitude which this operstion fds'
mits Of. The lightest soils and diisst seasons
require tho greatest depths to be used; and
wheat, OF all the grains, admits Of being de-
pcsited deepest. When the soil has beeh lats-
y. broke up, and rich, or is q very 6us sandy
loan, &c !, full Of manure, land withal dry
.eed tipe,) four inches is the best dcptb; but
10 general. three iucbes in these experiments
has answered tho best. S~ . ..,,
