Agrifnltnral 8eading.
vireworms and Thin Sowing.

In letter to the North British Agri-
culturi,t. Mr.. Mechi, The farmer of Zip
tree Hall. says:
Having just visited New Hampshire, 1
was panied to see SO many oats and bar
ley fields almost Or entirely destroyed by
wireworm. All this might have been
easily, cheaply and certainly prevented
by the sewing f about six bushels of salt
per acre just as the plants were coming
through. | have some land subject to
is pest tut for several years, having
used salt. | have prevented their rava-
ges. Oh, but, say or write many farm
ers to me. [ have placed wireworms i'll
salt, and they continued living as grisa,
aud therefore it is clear that salt will not
kill them. My reply has becn-'did you
put my water with the salt Z" This soon
changed their opinion. 1t won't do TO
wait for evidence Of damages before you
apply the salt, for the whitening of the
plant only takes place after the stem has
been bitten through by the wireworm.-
In some eases worms are the best friends
to farmers, that is when they only destroy
oue-h half or two thirds Of the too thickly
sown plants, thereby teaching a Wholesome
lesson on thin seeding. A Hampshire
farmer told NE the other day, as looked
over his wireworm- eaten oat>feldS, that
last year he had despaired of getting any
crop. but the few plants left by the wire-
worm. having plenty of room for ample
development, produced the most abundant
crop he ever grew. never drill more
than two bushels of oats per acre, aud 7
have grown G1e crop from only one
hushel. Hampshire is rather noted for
thick sowing, probably with view 10
smother the weeds; for was good deal
shocked. agriculturally, to find that it vas
not the custom, in the district visited.
to hoe out the weeds from the wheat. -
This, in Essex, would be considered cul
pable and Improbable neglect

Praying and Working.

I like that saying Of Martin Luther
when be says, Il have so much business
to do today that [ shall not be able to get
through it with less than three hours
prayer Now, most people would say,
Il have SO much business to do to-day
that have only three minutes, prayer;
cannot afford the time" But Luther
thought that the more he had to do the
more lie must pray. or else he could not
get through it. That is blessed kind of
logic: may we understand it! "pray ing
and provender hinder no mans journey"
If we have to stop and pray. it is no more
"a hindrance than when the rider has to
stop at the farriers to have bis horses shoe
fastened; for if he went on without at
tending to that, it may be that ere long be
would come to stop Of far more serious
kind &c. H. Sp ygeon.
