pIonIng Corn Grnnnd.

A correspondent of the Chicago
Western Rural writes as follows:
1t is the practice of many farmers
to plOw deep for corn. Nine cases
out of ten, better crops of corn
would be obtained, without doubt,
by blowing four or five inches deep,
than by blowing eight to ten inches
deep, especiallyson lands with a clay
Eubsoil.
To secure quick and rapid
growth ofcOrn, the land should be
plowed in & manner that will cause
the sod to rot IS soon as possible.
Shallow blowing. and the burrows
turned 50 a. To lap upon each other
about two inches, and well worked
down with the harrow, running the
same way the blowing is done, and
before the land shall become dry,
so that it will break into Jumps
when the harrow passes over it,
will cause the sod to rot much
sooner than if the soil is turned
down to the depth of six to ten
inches. Consequently the soil be-
comes warm much sooner and the
roots of the young plants reach the
decaying turf many days sooner
than it otherwise would, which pro,
duces an early, steady and rapid
growth.
The subsoil attachment may be

Remedy for the Peach Worm.

Mr.. Isaac G. Mask, Of Moorefeld,
West Virginia, writes to the Coun-
try Gentleman as follows:
There is a handy means for the
destruction of this heretofore fatal
enemy to the peach tree, which is
practiced here-which has proved
certain, beyond peradventure. 1t
is simple, of easy application and
expeditions. 1t consists of the use
of boiling ,0ater applied to the col
lar of the tree, in quantities varying
according to the age of the tree
in small trees, say one inch in diane
ter, half pint is sufficient, and a
pint is enough for larger ones. Re
move the earth from around the
tree few inches from the body and
Il few inches in depth, and just pour
the water boiling hot on the ex-
posed roots, and it will kill every
egg as well as worm, with positive
certainty. 1t has been tried here
time and again upon trees that have
been more than half killed, and a
perfect restoration has been the re-
suit in every case. No danger need
be apprehended from the effects of
the hot water upon the trees, unless
large quantity is applied to very
small tree. When a large number
of trees have TO be operated upon,
4 fire should be made in the orchard
for heating the water so that it can
bc applied boiling hot. Considering
the importance Of this remedy to
peach growers who may not have
heard of it, l deem it but common
Justice to give it circulation through
the columns of your paper. Its
certainty as a remedy may he i'm
plicitly relied upon.

ExnrrIments with POtatoes.

Messrs. Isaac Hicks 4 Sons, Old
Westbury, l.. l., sends to the
Country Gentleman an account of
some potato experiments in the
summer of 1868. The soil is a light
sandy loan; previous crop, corn in
drills on inverted sod j., 10 two
horse loads Of city horse stable
manure spread TO the acre. The
corn stubble was spread with cow
stable manure and plowed under
about nine inches.
Planting was begun April ID.
Rows were marked 3 feet apart and
furrowed out with pillow a 6-foot
evener enabled one horse to walk in
the drill last made, the plOwman
having no obstruction in seeing
ahead and making very straight
and parallel drills; the plow was
run twice in each drill, to throw a
furrow each way and to straighten
if necessary. Six two"horse loads
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1869-04-23

used to a great advantage, WHARF,
the subsoil is clay, if it runs from
three to four inches deeper than the
plow. The effect seems to be to
form channels through which water
may be conducted to the broad,
open bitches made before the plow-
ing is done, which if not carried off,
and allowed to remain near the sur
face for many days, would impede
the growth of the crop, and the land
would be more liable to break, and
be much harder when the water had
settled away or evaporated. .-
There are no objections to pillow
ing sandy lands for corn as deep as
they have been made productive by
clover and the application of barn
yard manure However, it does
not appear that light blowing and
the use of the subsoil attachment on
blowing clay land would be the best
for a corn crop. To pillow early and
harrow the land Immediately after
would cause the summer grass and
weeds to grow, all of which may be
destroyed by the use of the harrow
and wheel cultivator before the
planting is done, which would be of
great advantage, should we be pres
vented working the land for many
days after planting, by heavy rains
or otherwise.
l intend to plant in rows (drilled)
eight feet apart, the work to be
done with a cylinder grain drill,
putting in but one row at time, on
account of the drill being only six
feet wide. The object in having the
rows eight feet apart is for the pur- |
pose of using the wheel cultivator
in tending the corn each month |
Turing the summer. OF course we
hall have to pass along next the |
'ows with a one horse cultivator.
The object of planting and tilling
Is above described is with view
IF sowing the land with wheat in
he fall, at any time before the corn
s cut.
"But," says one, sour fields are
90 small to use the wheel cultiva-
or; so much turning around will
Freak down too much corn" We
want larger fields, and more light
board fence, that we NAV
'ut two or more fields in one, while

| have from 400 to 500 loads of
,arn-yard manure, which is to be
lauled upon the land after the corn
las been planted, instead of hauling
md spreading it upon the land be-

Wood Ashes as a FERTILIZER

For grass and clover wood ashes
are excellent. For fruit trees of
almost or quite all kinds, they are
of great value. They will dc for
the grains. Pillow in and mix
with the soil; but better, apply to
the surface Ashes, like plaster,
attract moisture. 1t is the potash
in them that does this, as well as
other materials, of which gypsum is
one. They are therefore excellent
as mulch or top-dressing for other
mulches. Fruit trees should be
treated this way. Grapevines and
berry bushes the same. If the soil
rs a stiff clay there will be less effect.
A loose, somewhat leaclly soil will
be at once benefited, and SO will any
light soil effected by a drouth.
Where ashes are used largely, it is
not necessary TO use plaster, as they
contain certain percentage of this
valuable fertilizer. They have
many properties, and unless plenty
in the soil, should be used even at
pretty high price. In the winter is
a good time TO gather them. Leached
ashes are also good. They form an
excellent covering for tree soil, and
around berry bushes and grapevines.
