Low Prices Of Wheat in England.

AoW 1IlC6o Ol w neat III GuB lduu'
From the Toronto Globe we clip the fol
lowing:
"Stltstics Of the Price Of wheat in Eng
land show that the average price (4s. SID
per bushel) for the first half of the present
wear was lower than the average for any
year in the present century. In fact not
since 1880 has wheat been so dow. In the
century the nearest approach to present
figures was in s5l when the price in Great
Britain was Gl lSs. l6d. per quarter, or As.
9id. per bushel The highest price was in
ll2, when IS. 92d., over $3.50, was the
average per bushei. In recent times the
highest prices known were in 1854 6, in the
time OF the Crimean war. The average tor
the middle year of the three was 9s. Id,
1921 per bushel. In 1878 prices again
approached or exceeded 81 per bushel. In
the past 6 years prices haye had a down
ward tendency, and with the increase in
the number of wheat exporting countries.
aud the substitution OF America for Russia
as the chief source Of supply, lit tie disturb
ances in Europe which formerly sent wheat
up with bound, haye now but little iuAu
ence on the market. The present year
shows market decline from the average of
1888, and the first week OF July decline
oi oyer 81. bushei on the first week of the
year. Should the harvest oyer the world
prove as abundant as ut present it seems
probable. it is not improbable that wheat
may isll to its figures of l04 years ago,
when the average prize was only As. 81.

Application Of Manure.

In 1860 tue Massachusetts Agricultural
Society offered premiums to decide The
question of deep or shallow covering of
manure i've lots Of the same size on sim
ar soil, side by side, were to be selected,
narked aud numbered. On number one
o two, plowed in four inches; number
three, spread on the surface and narrowed.
in number FIVE, no manure. The lots were
to be planted and cultivated alike tor three
years in succession, no more application Of
manure; entire crop of each lot tor each
year weighed. account of the seasons and
description of soil was to accompany each
report. The best average results were ob
tanned from placing the manure about four
inches deep. Messrs. Brown and Ravnolds
assert: "The depth at which manures
should be covered will depend upon three
circumstances: the nature OF the soil, The
kind Of manure and the kind OF crop, All
wanures should be placed at a sufficient
depth in the soil to keep them moist or
they will be inactive. Whep a soil is natur
ally heavy and moist, it is not necessary to
bury manures So deep to insure its being
kept IN a moist state,as when it is light and
dry. Manures containing large proper
ton OF volatile elements, should be buried
more deeply. These elements, when the
soil becomes warm, assume the gaseous
form, aud tend to raise to the surface, and
will be dili'used through the sril lying over
themi and, il there are elements in the soil
having an affinity Tor them, il will be re
tanned Other elements which are soluble
in water may be safely applied on, or near
the surface, where they will be dissolved
by the rain, and sink into the soil. | re-
gard this as admirable teaching, and as
worthy Of close observance Vegetables

FARMERS COLUMN.
Harvesting Corn.


When ! was Ibqy, remember that a
great many farmers, especially the older
ones, used To. cut the tops olfaboye the ears,
tie them in bundles, and when cured, haul
them to the barn FOR lodderwhile the butts
were left until the corn was thoroughly
hardened. when the ears were broken of,
thrown into the OK carl hauled to the barn
and dump-d in heap on the floor ;
then the butts were cut close to the ground
and dragn, To the barn too, for folder. By
this method, fsrmers in those days claim
ei that corn was a great deal sounder and
better. Sumo also assert that it ripened
earlier, ami there may have been some
truth in it. But the above custom has
nearly passed away and it is seldom a
farmer can DO found who practices it now
a-days. There is probably no better way,
oil things considered than to let it stand
undsturbed until we'll glazed, and then cut
IL at the ground and nut it up into large,
well made stocks; here the corn will ripen
off wol and the stalks cure nicely, making
excellent fodder for the milch COWS. If no
value was attached to the fodder, | would
let it stand longer, however, before cutting;
but world cut before severe frosts, if
possible, because unless fully ripe the sap
becomes vitialed, and great loss TO both
grain and stalk is the effect. Better to cut
too early than too late, and thus secure good
fodder. After being cut and stocked, it
should be husked as soon as well cured and
put under shelter, where it will keep in
good condition, for feeding. A great many
farmers do mt vslue well cured corn fodder
as highly as it deserves. F. II. C.
