Specific Manures for Gardens.

There are some manures which act lik
charm upon certain vegetables which d
not benefit others, indeed, sometimes seen
to 90 harm. 1t is therefore very import
ant for those who are acquainted with thi
fact, which is the result of many wears O
observation aud experiments First. fifth,
garden has gravelly, porous substratum
mannring in the fall is not desirable, be.
cause the winter and spring SHOWS and rair
carry off the essence Of themaDure to deptf
beyond the reach of the roots OF any veee
table. Such soil as this should be ma.
nured in the spring on the plowed ground
and the manure mingled with the earth
by the harrow. This sort of soil is best
adapted to fruit trees they will grow upon
it better than clay the texture may be
reduced TO any state which may be de.
sired.
Secondly, for peas, a sprnkling of ashes
on each side, about an inch from the seed,
is all peas require, taking it for granted
the soil has been MANFRED, as above re-
ferred to, with mixed manures.
Thirdly, for potatoes, vegetable manures
are best for we have known flesh animal
manure to injure the crop materially, and
II this is not the case in every instance,
the flavor OF the potato is injured. A
mixture of plaster, ashes, and wood earth
In equal proportions, we have known to
produce fine crops. without the aid of any
other manure. What the potato needs is
equality of temperature this is best eff
fected by putting over them about eigh-
teen or twenty inches of straw, or plant
ing them under an old sod will have the
same effect. f
Fourthly, onions should have hen. house
manure, forked in around the roots.
Filthy, for asparagus, plenty of salts.
NO fear OF having too much even ii an
inch thick over the bed, no harm would
be done. There should always be enough
to destroy the growth of grass, weeds, and
anything that grows to the detriment of
the asparagus.
Sixthly, for lettuce, any stimulating
commercial manure is best.
Seventhly, for tomatoes, hog-pen ma.
nure, and soap-suds will make them per-
feet.
Eighty, for cabbage, the same as let
tuce.
Ninthly, for beets, salts when they are
planted, and little when they are grow
ing, is all they require if the soil is rich.
Tenth, for Strawberries, soap-snds acts
like charm, but animal manures are gen.
orally injurious.
Eleventh, for cucumbers, any good fer
tilizer put in the earth five or six inches
from the seed. If the stripped bug should
make its appearance, use plaster freely over
the hills and plants.

AeRrouLrURE q HoRTIouLTuRE


The agricultural papers of the countr,
have for years been discussing the ques
tions of deep aud shallow blowing and th,
level or ridging process of cultivation
The misfortune is that many of the opin-
ions advanced come from men with no ex-
perience in farming, and their ideas are
beautiful in theory, but prove false in
practice; and again, the mistake is made
that their plans are susceptible of general
adoption, when only particular localities
are suitable for their application.
Upon our river low grounds and rich al
luvial bottom lands, deep blowing will
answer and no doubt prove of great advan-
tage, but practice proves that upon our
thin highland farms, where the soil is
about as thick as case knife, deep plow-
ing does not answer. New grounds, just
cleared OF timber, when ploughed never do
we'll whereas, il the soil is scraped up
into hill about the size of mans hat
they produce finely, anda all after cultiva-
ton and applications of manures remain in
favor of the land where the skinnine pro.
cess was pursued at first. b9
Ask all old farmers about the truth of
this. All lands should be bedded or
rldged for corn, potatoes, peas, beets,
watermelons, and in fact all crops except
such as are sown broadcast The reason
is plain that in ridging land the soil is
thrown together and another and better
reason is that the young plants, being
raised upon an eminence, do not suffer
from too much wet weather, and gather
more warmth from the slanting rays of |
the sun, when in spring the ground is too |
cold and too wet.
AThe after process should be to level with
harrows and cultivators until by the last |
working the land is nearly level. This is
uniting the two systems of level and ridg-
ing cultivation, which practice will prove
is the best about Green Bay Any farmer
may try both plans, side by side, and be
convinced which is the better. /
No water should be permitted to remain
upon lands or run over it, except what
falls from the clouds, and by running fur
rows by a water level there will be n 10 gull
lies or wash places H. TO.
