Treating Land for Wheat,

A correspondent of the Country Gentle.
man writing from the village of Fort Plain,
New York, details his practice in preparing
sward for wheat, and the result. He says
1.-The land had been ten years in meadow,
principally timothy Originally seeded to
clover and timothy. As soon as the crop Of
hay had been taken off last summer, the
held was plowed. The grass was cut on July
9, the sod plowed few days after, and in
verted only to the depth of four inches; this
with aview TO treating the quack, which had
considerably infested the land. A week
after it was thoroughly narrowed, and what
loose quack could be gathered was removed.
The cultivator, with heavy weight upon it,
was then passed over it, loosening the soil
to the depth of the plowing-followed by the
harrow; more quack was removed, leaving
the land in a finely pulverized condition,
This on August Is was turned down, 10 the
depth of - inches. The harrow was again
used, and September 4 another blowing
given, again - inches in depth, thus bring
ing up in part and in part distributing the
surface soil that has been turned down.
This blowing so deep was done without any
fear OF bad consequences, as the soil, like the
river soil here in general IS well aerated, hay
ing perfect natural drainage. It is there
fore not of that raw nature that we find in
clay exposed for the first time to the air.
The day after this blowing the land was
sowed, bushel and half of wheat and
half bushel of timothy per acre. Both
were sown broadcast. The crop was cut
July 10, with the berry well in the dough,
and the sheaVes, lightly bound, put in stocks,
whence, after curing six days-the weather
fair and windy-it was removed to the barn
and threshed. The yield was sixty-eight and
a half bushels by measure, weighing sixty
two and one-fourth pounds per bushel, OBJ
tanned from trife over an acre and half
lone and fifty one.hundredths), being at the
rate OF forty-five bushels to the acre. A
brighter, plumper wheat it is hard to and.
The variety is the Clawson.
The point here is that the land has not
been treated to manure, but reliance for fer
tility was placed upon cultivation, which was
most thorough and continued, several impor-
tant points besides being met. Among not
the least was the Punishment of the quack,
and set of timothy in its place that occupies
the ground like cloud, showing how favor
able wheat is, even livery heavy, to seed down
with. Another important point is the crop of
hay removed the same season the land was fall
lowed. This afforded some manure, and it
was thoroughly Incorporated with the soil
what wheat requires. The ground, while it
was mellow, was heavy, and bad a clean
look. Its perfect drainage favored it under
the snow, which was heavy and also pre-
vented heaving in the spring. 1t is very
fine sofia dark loan, without stone or
gravel, originally very rich, too rich, it was
said-and for century steadily run without
any application of manure.-Prairie Farmer.

Feeding Cattle.

A correspondent of the Rural Sun gives his
experience In feeding cattle as follows:
II they are sometimes stuffed and at others
starved, they will soon go through the process
OF .eating their heads eff" In feeding meal
L always want it ground fine, as my experience
is that three bushels of fine meal are equal to
four ground coarse though an over feed of
fine meal will sour worse than the coarse; this
the feeder must guard against. Always give
each one box by themselves, so you will
know they eat what you feed them, and al
ways accustom them to being tied up from
calves; if this is not convenient when you be-
gin to feed, tie them up at night and let them
run loose in the lot during the day. Keep
them we'll bedded, and never allow hog in
their stalls, or you will lose much of the ma
nure they make, and that with me is a big
item. When your stalls begin to be too hot to
be healthy, clean out and haul direct to where
you want the manure. In commencing to
feed, if you intend to feed five or six months,
don't feed too heavy at the start, but gradually
increase SO as not to coy them, as it is difficult
foundered. For two years past have been
turning mine off at two and two and half
years old, at from $68 to $7S, and always with
satisfaction to myself and to all parties who
old scrub steer until he was four years old,
with lot OF young grades. The grades made
gain of 615 pounds each in ten months and
days, and the scrub gained 423 pounds in the
same time; and through the feeding season he
ate three pounds more of meal than any other
in the lot, and think full as much hay, though
that was not weighed. He weighed at four
years old, 1866 pounds, and sold at a cents a
pound, while the two and two and half year
olds weighed 400 pounds and sold at cents.
In feeding, few ruta-bagas are great help.
Hay and corn fodder feed alternately are better
than either alone. In my opinion, no farmer
who feeds grade short horns judiciously, and
takes care to get the benefit of his manure, will
ever need credit. AS for scrubs, fight shy of
them, for if the market is dull and slow you
are compelled to sell for less than they cost
you, and seldom, under any circumstances, at a
profit.

The SUBSTITUTION OF
BRANDY FOR ALCOHOL,
the use of the True Jamai-
Ca Ginger, of their own
selection and importation,
tits combination with
choice aromatics, as de-
vised and originated by
iDr. Sanford, placed this
preparation in actual
INERT so far ahead of any,
thing before compounded
that Notwithstanding the
most bitter opposi ton
from the trade, its sales
in New England now ex-
lceed that of all others
combined, The second
lyear of its manufacture
tits sale exceeded the prev
iious year by over fifty fine
thousand bottles. 1t is
manufactured on a scale
simply enormous. Two
thousand gallons are al
ways kept made long in
advance of consumption,
by which it acquires a DEL
icious flavor and br lillian
transparency. Every i'm
iprovement in labor Saving
apparatus is adopted, so as
| to permit the use of costly
materials and yet retain a
profit. The bottling ma
chine is alone able to fill
taDOth0uSdnd four hundred
bottleSper hour. Fom this
brief statement it will be
seen that Messrs. WEEKS
& POTTER have entered
upon the manufacture of
Sanford's Jamaica Ginger
/ in a manner that must in
time secure for them TIL
enormous trade in this are
ticle. Its elegant flavor,
great merit, and low price
! should be tested once by
those in need OF a family
medicine before allowing
themselves to be induced,
by Misrepresentation, to
buy others. Insist upon
having what you call for
SANFoRD's JAMAICA
GINGER.

How TO Cook Oats and Wheat.

There is only one perfect way to cook oats
and wheat. For the perfection of oat food
Inc whole or ''pearled' should be used, as
oat-meal becomes rancid by absorption of
noXlous odors in single day. The pearly
oals must be soaked ten or twelve hours in
four times as much water, by measure, to
which trltle of salt has been added, and
then boiled in double boiler tor an hour
and half, receiving no string except at the
closing of the boiling process; pour into
moulds, and serve when partly or quite cold,
as preferred. To lovers of oat food, this will
be found 10 be new revelation, To such as
dislike "mushes," it will commend itself for
its elegance-being ne .rly white-and deli
cate favor. 'Pearled wheat" and "coarse
granulated wheat" which can now be
bought, require like treatment and are en-
tltled TO like commentator. -Erchdnge.
The grain trade of Buffalo shows that the
water route has regained its lost prestige.
The receipts of grain for August were over
100 per cent. greater than in August, 1875,
footing up 10, 499,973 bushels, which is the
largest amount for the month on record.
The canal shipments are very large, being
one-third in excess of last year, and though
the tolls have been reduced 30 per cent, the
receipts were ST., 900 over those of August,
1875.
