WASHING WooI IN GrHMANY The process
Of washing is done under the roof, and, accord
iugy no sudden showers or rainy weather can
interfere with it, Before the shower bath is adj

filled with hot water. equal 10 eighty -four degrees
Fahrenheit; the sheep are then placed in two
lines and constantly handled until the yolk and
dirt are dissolved, which ordinarily takes from If
teen to twenty minutes. Tho solvent effect of the
hot water is increased by adding few pounds OF
potash, and also by the I've arising from the nat
ural oily matter OF the wool.
The sheep, after being well soaked are placed
under shelter, where they have to wait their turn
of the shower-bath, in order that the animal now
too much-heatcd, may not pass Immediately from
the hot soaking vat INTO the showcrbSth, this be-
ing from siNty-one TO sixty three degrees Fahrcn-
helt. The water is let upon the sheep through a
hole, with a strainer upon the end. It falls with
considerable velocity, and is brought to bear up
on all parts Of the sheep until the wool is of a
snowy whiteness. The sheep are then driven to a
warm, dry shelter, and shorn as soon as the wool
Is dry generally about the siNth day. On am av-
erage forty sheep are thus washed in an hour.

To- discuss the subject in all is bearings but shall
merely offer few remarks in relation TO The adj
vantages resulting from q fiat surface on light

yator instead of cuitiSating with the pillow, harrow
and hoe.
It will be evident, we think, to every candid
mind, that the practice Of constructing large con-
cal hills around the plants on land which is level
and dry, must inevitably tend to increase the eff
face TO the atmosphere and consequently incrcas-
cs prciaciiOu at times when all the moisture con-
tanned in the soil is required for the support and
sustcnaucc OF the plants When rain falls, the
cOnical hill conducts the water from tie roots to
the centre Of space between the rows and hills

plants. or within range Of the roots by which the
pabulum is taken up by She growing plants and
without which they would Immediately laugush
and decay.
On light soils we think billing is'always a disad-
vantage TO the crop. Every fresh stratum of earth
placed over the roots causes the protrusion of %
new set OF lateras. TO the detrimcnt OF those pre-
wously formed This eNhausts the energy of the
