Cross Fertilization of Corn.

Prof Beal, of Michigan, proposes to try
thoroughly the advantage of crossing corn,
the seed Of which is obtained from localities
remote from each other. After obtaining
seed the product of this cross, he is to employ
it to plant the next year, and to observe
what Improvement in productiveness is thus

Uses for Salt.

A writer in the Rurut Nee Yorker says that
the salt question is always on the carpet, and
while it is very certain that salt is not man.
urc it is equally certain that its application is
decided benefit. The retardation and often
complete ruin of crops by insect depreda
tions is well known, but ii is not at all appre-
ciated to its full extent. Salt can act in but
three ways benefically. 1t attracts moisture,
and hence is useful in dry seasons it drives
away insects, and therefore is useful in all
seasons and when thoroughly dissolved by
heavy rains, it acts by assisting inert or insolu
BILE material to become fit for plant food
The first mode is slight gaining, enough
though to pay for the salt; the second is very
valuable, paying for the salt and trouble of
application from ten to one hundred times
over, according to the prevalence and de-
structivcness of the insects; the third mode is
of but little value because insolubles are gen.
orally proof against its feeble action, five
sum up the gain from the three modes of ac-
ton, we perceive such a very decided gain
that one fair trial is sufficient to. convince the
most skcptical. The only danger is in excess
but as five bushels per acre will do no harm,
the danger is not likely ever to be alarming,
rs few farmers can afford to waste salt any
where.

Effects Of Deep Flowing.

Years ago plowed field that had been
nearly exhausted by long cropping. The
soil was a clay loan with fair drainage. 1t
was plowed to the beam, bringing up some
five or six inches of raw soil, which had not
seen the light since deposited by glacial ac-
ton, and which changed the appearance of
the field, displaying a variety of colors, with
an increased friability of soil, that made it
seem like an ash field. The crop put upon
it without manure) was failure. 1t was
somewhat better the next year. and continu-
ed to increase in productiveness until, in
few years, it surpassed its former fruitfulness,
without manure at all, the crops being grain
and the land yearly plowed to the same depth.
1t was then seeded down to timothy and
clover, yielding heavy crop of clover with
plaster) and superior grazing for many years,
other grasses and white clover working in
and thickening the set. The field is hill
side facing the south, and seems permanently
improved.
Since then have met with similar cases.
On level land, understanding should precede
the deepening of clay soil, where the subsoil
tardily parts with its water. Before blowing
itwould be good plan to fine the topsoil
with cultivator and harrow. This turned
down, aired and enriched (by working and
warm, would have good effect on the crude
earth below.
have good instance of the benefit of
turning of water. Last fall fOrked up O
spot of ground that had never been plowed
and had lain unoccupied, save by few weeds
and scant grasses for over fifty years. TWAS
mostly composed of clay, and an open ditch
cut a few years ago to carry off the hill water,
drained it, giving chance for the fresh water
to pass through, warming, airing and enrich
ing it, thus correcting largely its raw charac-
ter. 1t worked up mellow. In the spring
another forklng was given it, followed in
few weeks by still another, and manure was
applied and mixed with the surface SOIL
Sweet corn and tomatoes were planted and
the growth that followed was astonishing; no
better yield have | ever known. The imme-
date success is chiefly owing TO the ditch. In
connection with ditching, subsoiling is an adj
vantage, as you suggest, favoring farther the
admission of air and warmth, thus in
measure correcting the under soil before it is
brought up, and allowing deeper blowing at
time, so that the work of reclamation is
sooner accomplished.-COr Country Gentle-
