Green Manuring.

Correspondent American Agricultural.
By the term green maturing is meant the
practice of growing and blowing under crops in
the green state to enrich the soil A. soil is said
to be productive In proportion to the amount of
humus it contains. Hpmtis 10 formed by the
decomposition of animal and vegetable matter.
If heavy growth Of vegetation, grain, clover or
weeds is plowed under certain amount Of plant
food is returned to the soil 1t would be very
natural to suppose that the decayed stem of one
plant would contain good acceptable food for an
otner. II blowing under has been done on
clay sof Six months afterWard by digging down
throGgh the furfow, x DIRK Stratum t1satsHatnn viii be
found where the weeds fell and rotted. Re-
peated blowing under Of green crops will FIJI the
ground with hunus and restore the worst worn
land to fertility.
The objection to this method of fertilizing
is the lenth of time required as several years
must elapse before many crops could be added
to the soil. 1t Is very important, then, TO adopt
the rotation that win admit of the greatest
number of crops in the shortest time. Some
plants add more fertility to the soil than others,
but these are not always the ones that ere
easiest grown, especially on poor ground, and IL
is very important to get good growth to pillow
under. Rye will grow where no other grain
will. and yield fair crop. Another advantage
is its growth in winter In the latitude Of
southern Illinois rye may be sown in November
and plowed under when fully headed out id
May. and the ground sowed Immediately with
Southern cow peas and plowsd under in July
or August. Another sowing of peas will make
a partial crop by the first frost, when IL can
be turned under and the ground again seeded
to rye. This makes three crops plowed under
in one year

well be more favorable. The question now wor-
rying the farmers Is what will prices be2 In the
local markets there were few changes in prices
to-day The sugar and coffee markets retain
their strong position. Teas rule quiet; prices on
the better grades are steady and strong.
Nothing doing practically in canned goods
Fish selling quite freely, prices depending wholly
on quality. The produce markets are active,
and on many articles prices well sustain ed
There Is better tone to the poultry market;
prices unchanged. Eggs steady. Berries Arm
at quotations Vegetables are in large supply,
and prices range low. The stronger tone to the
provision market continues. The other mar
kets present no new features. Business men are
cheerful, and all look forward to an active and
early fall trade unless some unforeseen trouble
comes up. The clearings of the associated
banks of the country for five days of last week
show an increase of nearly $35, 600, 900 over the
previous week, and is fair indication of the
general business advancement, as neither period
includes the first or last days of the month The
outlook for wheat also grows brighter Ex-
ports now are but about 10000 900 bushels
behind last year, against deficiency of 20 000
COO bushels two months ago. The invisible
stocks have not been so low, according to the
best authenticated reports, within the past seven
years, except In 1882, when they were 40 600 900
bushels. The visible supply was then TO- 900 600
bushels while the invisible stocks now are So 000
600 bushels and the visible stocks 80 600 900 bush
els There is reduction of 8, 400, 900 bushels in
the visible supply, compared with last June
out IL is sLlll larger tnan Tor any previous june
The condition of our crop is excellent, and it is
estimated that shall reach about $50, 600, 600
bushels during the season, which, together with
the estimated surplus on hand July /, of So 000
600 bushels, will give the American markets $780,.
100000 bushels to handle within the next twelve
months.

The Foreign Grain Trade.

LONDON, June 2L-The Mark Lane Express,
in its weekly review of the British grain trade,
says; 1.-THE weather has been variable. The
wheat crops are fully three weeks late Oats
are also backward. Trade favored buyers The
sales of English wheat during the week were
% 1ae Quarters q BIS ID per quarter, against
ing period last year. Flour was difficult to SELL
and weaker. Foreign wheat was unimproved,
and buyers were scarce. Flour and barley were
neglected. Oats were in large supply and
pence cheaper. Six cargoes of wheat arrived off
and three remain two of which are California.
New crop California was offered at 33s Cd 034s.
To-day the market was slow Most grades of
wheat showed a decline of pence the fortnight
