From private conversation had

principal reason for voting against the
passage Of the proposed "log law" was
that ne considered the financial condition

PLANTING CORN.-Some of our best farm
ers, including such men as John johnson
have ascertalned from thorough experiment
that corn planted in drills will yield about
| twenty five per cent. more than IN hills in
the common way. The more even distribl-
Jion Of the plants IN the drill admits a larg-
CT number of fully developed stalks; and a
greater product 10 grain and one-half more
Of fodder, may be grown upon an acre
OF land Toe objection to drills is the in
creased labor of hand-hoeing. In weedy
soils this o. lection may be a strong one; but
on the grounds of good farmers, who keep
their land clear By good cultivation and good
rotation. it Is Of small magnitu ie. Our
OWE repeated experiments prove that on the
land which will give forty bushels per acre
by common hill culture, we may RELY OF
hlty-fve bushels from well cultivated drills.
or an increase of fifteen bushels-enough to
pay for seven days labor in hoeing, which lie
three times as great as the actual difference
between hills and drills on clean land. 10 say
nothing Of the increase in the amount OF
stalks for fodder. There are some farms.
we admit, which are so poor and so full of
weeds, that the extra labor of hOeing drills
would exceed the increase we have mentioned
ind on these farms the old mode will be con
tinued
After testing different modes of applying
manure, we lind the greatest return from it's
application by spreading it on sod in fall or
winter, and IN inverting this sod by shallow
blowing just before planting. There may be
soils where early blowing and subsequently,
working OF the top Of the sod may answer
best, but the practice of planting Immediate
~ after plowIDg and narrowing the fresh and
moist surface, answers the purpose best on
any good lrIable loan. This practice can b.
adopted only with dTills, which are planted
as fast as the field is plowed, while the whole
fed must be first finished before the land
can be marked out for hills rowing both
ways. The blowing, narrowing and plant
ing may all 90 on together. The advantages
of this pr tctce are-l. The earth is fresh,
moist and mellow for the reception of the
seed; 2. There is no danger of the corn
failing TO grow in consequence of dried
Jumps 3. the CORP is planted as fact as
plowed, without any delays resulting from
intervening storms; and 4. The young
plants come up aud keep ahead Of the weeds,
II there be any in the sJils, and these DO not
have 10 make any Roadway before the crop.
In planting according To this mode, it will
save labor IN dressings to use a machine for
the purpose, because the rows may be thus
ma evener and straighter, or if there be
curves, they VIII be long, and will not inter
fere with easy Country Gentle

yield aud quality that it soon become quite a

Washington County, and it appears Of other
localities. Mr. Jdge did not know any
name for the wheat, and his neighbors called

Mr.. Halle says that when he purchased
the seed il was called the Rio Grande wheat,
and that it was the best wheat be ever raised,
but he neglected TO retain the seed.
The seed was gathered by Mr.. Dodge in
instead Of Lowell, as Mr.. Eos

the mattel, as we know him to be- a reliable
gentleman.
