r : U 1‘ T I ES—HOW AND WHEN APPLIED? ..g established custom—a "lut” that the wheels of every-day practice have run in for years, has something I which entitles it to respect. We should | not switch off upon a side track, or no track at a'l, just because we find ourselves running our practice*in the old ruts. These were formed probably for soaje good reason, and should be departed from only (or a good reason. The interest in the subject of manuring land is increasing over the whole country, even on the rich prairies, where the ideas advanced from time to time by the Ayriculturest, have so often provoked derision, manure is getting to have a recognized value; everywhere else it is the very li f e of farming. It is gratifying to hear a farmer say, Five years ago, do the best I could, I could not make over 70 loads of good manure, but now I keep double the stock I did then, and make 300 loads of better quality.” Such a man can not leave the accumulations of the whole year until April and May before be gets it out, but there must be a system of almost constantly getting it to the field, and getting it und r g-ound. The farmer whose remarks we quote, has on an average, 25 ox-cart lands of manure per month to dispose of.

For some crops, coin for instance, ■ manure may be applied fresh and plowed ! in. For others, as flax or wheat, such; rank manure would be la'al to a good I crop. Applied in the autumn, manure, will generally become so incorporated with the soil before spring, that its rank character will be entirely lost, and if examined it will be found much of the consistency of manure that has lain 6 months or more in the yard. For corn and root crops, it is best to have the manure diffused through the soil. For wheat and the other cereals, the upper layer of the soil to the depth of say 4 inches, thould Contain the manure applied, especially for the crop. There are two ways of securing this surface enrichment, which, in the case of the small grains, should never consist of rank unfarncented manure. One way is to make a compost, work it over, and of a uniform consistency, apply it on the plowed surface and harrow it in, or 1 work it in with a cultivator. The other is to plow in a good dressing of manure spread evenly over the surface, turning it well under. If this be done in autumn, the spring plowing and harrowing, if done aright, will bring it again to the surface, well incorporated with the soil, »nd making usually a nice seed bed. Il it be done in the spring, a crop of corn or early potatoes may be raised, or on some soils a summer small grain crop, and the manure be brought to the surface for the especial benefit of a wheat crop in August or September.—There are such great difference in soils, exposures, and the general adaptation of disu-iets to certain* crops, that only general rules will apply universally. ••Inquirer,” wlo omits the State from his address, says it is customary with farmers in his neighborhood to manure a spring, or corn stubble for oats, and follow with wheat, seeding to elover and timothy. This to be followed by corn. Sometimes, it seems, the oats grow rank and lodged, but usually the crop is good. The reason evidently is that sometimes they plow the manure in so deep, the oats get but little, and if the plowing is too shallow, they fall badly. When they manure before plowing for wheat, the clover and timothy do better than when the manuring is b-fore plowing for oats■ but the wher.t is not materially affected Instead of thin, try coarse manure and plenty of it for the corn—none for the ent», a fiue'compost for the wheat kept near the surface. The rotation is not a good one, but wc are not on that subject | now.— American Agriculturist!.
