CLOVER. TURNED UNDER.

The Rual Southland says that q Mr..
J. Gregory, few years ago, moved
from Tennessee and bought plantation
in Murray county, Georgia. The land
at tho time he purchased it, with q
good season, would produce ten bushels
of wheat per acre, In October, MIR.
Gregory sowed broadcast fifteen acres.
of white Boughton wheat, one bushel
to the acre, and in February following,
he sowed the some ground in red clover
sowing broadcast in two ways, one
bushel to eight acres. He harvested
ten bushels of wheat per acre, and cut a
fine crop of hay the same season. The
next year he moved two crops of good
clover hay, averaging two tons per
acre. The third crop grew mp from
four to eight inches high, and in oe-
tober he plowed the clover under;
blowing deep and subsoiling; sowed one
bushel of white Boaghton wheat per
acre. The result was an average of
thirty and one half bushels of choice
wheat per acre. Thus you will see
that the only manure used to improve
the land and get thirty and one~half
bushels of wheat, where he could only
raise ten, was to pillow under deep d
good crop of clover, and subsoil.

CHEMICAL NANUREs.

= - ~
Prof. Stockbridge, of the Massachu
sets Agricultural College, contributed
the following ON the above subject to
the Scientific Farmer:
s'The objections is urged against the
use of chemical manures that, however
efficacious they may be in the produc-
ton of single crop, yet their con-
tinued application would soon result in
producing sterile sou, because the
essential element of organic, or car-
bonaceous material, would become
exhausted. That barnyard manure is
the, only substance that will supply all
the materials necessary for the pro.
duction Of crops, and maintain per-
petual fertility. 1t is at once admitted
that organic matter is an essential sub.
stance in fertile soil, also that animal
excrelnents- manures-are, all
things coneidsred, the best manure
But it by no means follows that in the
absence Of yard manure, or where its
price is very high, expedisnts cannot
be devised by which all the requisites
of a perpetually productive soil may
be secured, while the specific applica.
tons are only mineral, There un-
doubtedly can be in all cases This
may be Illustrated by a 'four-course
rotation. Potash and phosphorus acid
in some of their compound forms, and
in the requisite amounts Of each and all
for each Drop, superior crops may be
produced; first of roots, second gram
and then grass, or more properly clover
two years, II the last crop ofclover is
plowed in, that, with the large guam
tity Of roots developed by it, would
add more organic matter to the soil
than an average dressing of yard
manure, and in other respects would
enrich it more than the remains of the
same material after 1t has passed
through an animal organism. BY this
process every requisite Of fertile soil
is provided, the deficiency of yard
manure supplied, and culture may be
protracted indefinitely without it. This
is very good theory and it is extremely
difficult to pick a flaw in it, but what
is better it is now an established fact
Shenandoah herald. [volume] (Woodstock, Va.) 1865-1974, 1875-11-25
SOWING GRASS AND CLOVER WITH GRAIN,

One great cause of failure with grass
in the South, says the Ra1ral Curcliaaida
for October, has been the seeding of
the crop with the small grains, This is
a common practice at the North, and
we were formerly inclined to favor it.
but later experience forces us to the
conclusion that in our climate at least,
the practice is bad one, and that tits
far more profitable to- sow each by
itself. If sown immediately, (when
not already iD grass and clover will, on
suitable soil, attain such growth
before the hot weather of next season
sets in, as will insure them against iu-
jury, without the shade of the grain,
which will be injured by the clover and
grass, while injaring them in return.
In any case, the land for clover and the
grasses should be rich aud thoroughly
prepared by deep, close blowing,
followed by narrowing, previous to
which good dressing of super-phos
phate may be applied with advantage.
Brush lightly to cover, and, except on
heavy soils, by all means roll the fields
with tolerably heavy roller. This
last is an important and too generally
neglected process. Ifyeu are to SOW
both clover and tbs grasses on the
same field, it is best to SOW the clover
by itself, as the seed does not mix well
with thu grass seed. The various kinds
of era seed may be mixed before
