..w;,r winter yheat.

Iobn johnson, of Geneva. N Y. has
long been known as Q snccessfni isrmer.
Hn views on agricultural subjects are en-
titled to much respect. In the following
article be gives his reasons for opposing,
the early sowing Of whest:
When SOW early. on rich lind. and
" have growing Autumn. ! have often
found the main stalk and many OF the
strongest shoots had formed. the first or
upper Joint and embryo ear formed also !;
aud when we have q very bard Winter.
(say the then, ometer sometimes from IL
to 20 below zero. those embryo ears get
killed. or frost bitten. SO that the stalks
grow up small, like timothy. only getting
about two feet in height. and not prodn-
cling an ear or head of any kind. not even
chess. / think my farm. having south
ern and western exposure, is more liable
to have the snow blown of. hence more
liable to be damaged in that way than
land otherwise exposed.
have talked with wheat growers who
have raised more wheat than l ever did.
who never heard or thought Of such .
thing as the ear being formed and above
ground in the Fall. and would. l suppose.
have thought it incredible. had not Ia
ken them to the field and dissected q
plant and shown the ear in embryo. which
is sometimes not larger than the point Of
the finest needle.
With bright sun and good young
eyes, or old eyes with the best kind Of
speetacles. ore can see it is the ear, and
see marks where the grain is.to be form
cd, and with microscope it can be seen
very distinctly. May not this be the
cause of those black heads in wheat with
out either chaff or grain Other years
We have 9 great many ears with half an
inch or more on the top having no grain.
May not this be produced in the same
way? When I SOW about the 18th oil
September. ] never have those black ears
without chat or grain. l have seen none
of those in the Mediterranean white
wheat. 1t is somewhat singular that 10
swales. or low black soils. where wheat
grows much larger in the fall. these EN-
bryo ears are not SO plenty, II at oil, as
on upland that is made very rich by
manure.
This | think will be something new to
!, farmers, and no doubt will be criticised,
but let them examine carefully for them
selves. It is rather nice operation to
dissect the stalk it requires care not to
break off the little ear. Dissecting one
will show how wonderfully nature has
protected the ear in an embryo state.
The joint will be difficult to those who
never dissected one, but in pulling down
the outer coating. they will generally
break of at the joint. and good eyes will
then detect it.

p RED PAINT IN THE GARpEN.-In look.
ing over the proofs Of Mohr's work on the
grape, We notice many little practical
hints. Among others, be recommends
that tho handles Of pruning knives and
all other implements liable to be lost,
be painted q bright red. The handles oil
knives and other small tools are usually
of s'color so near that Of the soil. or that
of the branches of trees and vines. that i,
is not easy to end them. il csrelessly
misplaced. He also recommends the
same color for wires used for low trellises
for vines, ETC.. as wires OF the ordinary
color are not readily seen BY strangers.

The Wisconsin Farmer very thor.
oughly refutes the theory of Professor
Whitney, that the soil Of the prairies is
deficient in some property essential to
the growth of timber. II shows that
wherever in the western country, by the
formation OF the ground, or by streams.
the FIRE is kept out. timber thrives. The
prevailing winds which drive the fires
are western. and in prairie countries tim.
Der is almost invariably found on the
eastern borders of rivers.

Chamber's Journal tells. of q simple
preventive Of the ravages of insects upon
trees, which was first published at Lyons
by the Imperial Society Of Practical
Horticulture. The remedy is to shower
the trees or plants with mixture of one

This was very successful at Lyons. 1t

vinegar must be made larger

Scrofula, or Kings Evil.

is constitutional disease, corruption of tho
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being In the circulation, Il
pervadcs the whole body, and may burst cut
in disease on any pnrt Of 1t. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor il there one which il may
not destroy. Tho scrofulous taint Is variously
caused by mcrcurial disease, low living, dis.
ordered of unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the vencrcal infection. What.
ever be its origin, it is hereditary In the con.
stitution, descending "from parents TO children
unto tho third and fourth generation !" indeed,
1t seems to be the rod OF Him who says, ~
will visit the iniquities Of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood Of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, q termed
tubercles; in tho glands, swellings; and on
the surface, cruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, dcpresses
the energies of life, SO that scrofulous costitu-
tions not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with.
stand the attacks of other diseases conso.
quently, vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
arc still rendered fatal by this taint in tho
system. Most Of tho consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofilous contamination; and many
destructive diseases Of the liver kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, Of all tho organs, arise from OF
are aggravated by the same cause. ,s.
One quarter Of all our people ore scrofulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking IN.
fection, and their health is undermined BY il.
To cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in.
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
