Effects Of Heating the Soil.

Most gardeners in New England are in the
habit Of preparing the hills for cucunbers.
squashes and mslsns BY burning upon them
heaps Of old psa-brush, shavings, weeds and
chip-dirt. If you were to enquire the cause Of
this practice, You would probably be told that it
was to accomplish two very dissimilar purposes /;
the destruction Of the Numerous insects and
seeds which lay beneath the Burning heap, and
the imparting to the sell considerable degree Of
warmth. Certainly both of these objects are as-
complished, but we suggest that the great bene-
tit obtained by this procedure is the softening Of
the slick contained in the soil, whereby it is rem
dsred soluble.
Every farmer, who has put in a crop on land
that has been recently cleared and burned, as is
the practice in all timbsred countries, knows the
wonderful fertility Of lands that have been So
prepared, and has pleasant recollectious of the
FIRST crops that were produced after the az and
torch had done their work of devastation. Many
attribute this marvellous fertility, which is eI-
hibited for some years, to the presence of the
ashes tina, have been produced; but without
wishing II any mannsr, to detract from the val
Ne of the wood ashes. we believe the action of
the fire on the soil was the great cause of these
heavy crops, that grew upon land fourth part
OF which was occupied by stunps. Nearly ev-
cry grape grower knows the great value of soft
burned bricks when placed in the holes in which
vines are planted.
Now. on eur prairies, we have no timber to be
wasted in this manner, but We are Of the opinion
that great good would resalt by placing such
waste vegetable materials as We have on eur
freshly plowsd up clayey lands, and burning
them. This practice would be especially benef-
cial to lands that are to be sown to any kind of
grain, bat more particularly to Wheat. For the
perfection of either the straw or kernel of this
plant soluble silica is absolutely necessary.
1t piece Of hazel brush is to be broken up,
let one gang of mea cut the bushes and throw
them on the burrows that another gang is turning
up. Let muck, corn.stalks and rejected straw
be placed with them and after they are sufficient
ly dry set them on fire. If the field were clear
ed in this manner the pillow would do much bet
ter work, the fields would present much more
clearly appearance, and, above all, the land
would be rendered more productive,
