AGRICULTURAL.

The Poetry of Farming. A writer in the columns of the Ru ral World says that Agriculture has a field of poetry as well as of practical culture. The " pastoral landscape" is here all that the ancients have said about it, the harvest field sung about and beloved by everybody; the tanned haycock: the scent 01 new made hay at evening; the fields with their garniture of green, embracing the whole practical world of nature, the great source of the poet's imagination. mere are iruiis, ripe, goiaen apples, blushing and fragrant; peaches; velvet, watery peaches ; pears, nlums. the strawberry, and the seedy. glistening blackberry, with their fields. ot poetry! ana tne maize mtneneia, in the barnyellow and glistening on mild October days, when the sun also, is yellow, and; the earth is-teeming like a-wine, press with, plenty and good cheer. What hope! what pros pect ifr-store lor the bright winter evening: J. he vineyard itseit is one orthe greatest poems. llow the ancients doted upon it, sang its praises, and now" it is flowing in streams and hanging its purple clusters in bursting profusion. CloTer. differs entirelv from the Clover flGTeal "plants "in "this respect. that it sBtldiits main. rtots "pd-pendicdl&rly downwards, when no obstacles stand in the way,-to' a 'depth which "the fine, fibrous xoQts of. wheat and , barley fail to reath the principal roots of clover branch off into the creeping shoots, which again Pend forth fresh roots downwards. Thus clover, like the pea )lant, derives its principal food from ayers below the arable surface soil; and the difference between the two consists mainly in this, that the clover from it3 large and more extensive rooting surface, can still find a suffi ciency of food in fields where peas will no longer thrive. The natural consequence is, that the subsoil is left proportionably much poorer by clover than by the pea. Clover seed, on account of its small size, can furnish from ..its own mass but few formative elements .for the young plant,' and requires a rich, arable surface for its development; but the plant takes comparatively but little food from the surface soil. When the roots have pierced through this, the upper parts are soon covered with a corky coating, and only the fine root-fibres ramifying through the subsoil convey food to the plant. Liebig. Sweet "Potato Culture. An Illinois Agricultural correspondent thus writes about sweet po In the first place, land for the swe&t potato must be dry; that is, with a good surface drainage. A sandy loam is the best,, but a good friable welldrained clay will answer quite as well. It should be enriched with a slight dressing of old, well rotted manure. Treneh-plow the land ten to twelve inches deep, ridge up with the plow and 'finish with a hoe, so that the! ridges shall be large and well formed. I have found that it is better to allow I these ridges to settle some before the plants are set, especially if the weath- I er is dry at the time; It is better 11 we have a rain -fall after preparing the ridges, to settle the earth and make them moist. All newly-plowed ground oses moisture very rapidly irom the surface for three or four days, unless rolled, but in this case rolling is out ot the question, and we must wait tor rain to moisten the ridges, or until the moisture arises irom below by capillary attraction, which will occur in from three to four days, and the ridge will present a more homogeneous character, suited to the tender rootlets of the young plant. V ben plants are properly grown in the hot-bed, the main root is about six inches long, and this should be set in the ridge to its lull depth; and it will throw oat fibers throughout its whole length. If planted shallow in the ridge, or 11 the plant has been grown with a shallow covering in the hot-bed, as is too oiten me case, mere is danger of losing the newly set plant by drouth. If set deep, as stated, they will have plenty of moisture, and if they appear for a time, early in the season, to mate slow progress, yet. they will be found to have made hrm roots, and on tne approach of warm weather will grow on rapidly. in setting, it is important that tne roots be not moved, for these contain the germ of the tuber. In setting a cabbage or similar plant, press the earth firmly around the roots, for the simple reason that it is necessary to secure the moisture lor tne piam, otherwise it will die. On the other hand, the root of the sweet potatoe is long and sets deep, and, added to tins, it is invariably watered at the. time. A maiority ot the farmers set tneir sweet potatoes during a ramy spell. TIin ia V.:i(i nmctice. for the plants An WtAr apt. nftfir a rain than before ai1 Aii ri n at nn As a general rule, early planting is Kottfr thnn l:itft that is in Central 11linois and Iowa, the last half of May. Sixteen inches appear to be the best distance in the ridge, with the ridges siT'Ofn itipho !in:irt. In cultivating, a double-shovel plow enn be run between the rows several times, and. until the vines cover the whole space, keep the ridges clear of weeds with the hoe, ana w& may expect a good crop. ' ' '. . Buckwheat and Honey. A Ger man writer estimates that an acre of buckwheat yielded fourteen pounds of honey daily. Single hives gathered three pounds on favorable days

Grafting Grape Vines Cut

your grafts in the fall, put them in a cellar, or any place that jWiii keep fresh until wanted. . If odc ; has a grape house, the eyes of the vines be gin to swell in the nrst week ot April ; by the last of May, or the first week in June, the vines- will be in, leaf; then is the time to engraft, as they will not bleed. Then head down the vine you want to engraft, and perform the operation the same as on the apple or pear. This is the whole secret. . "' : Dr. Trimble says the wheat weevil is not a fly, but a beetle somewhat like ' the curculio or the pea-bug. There ia one kind that infests pearl barley. These are so small that a dozen may exist in one grain. Some of the best wheat districts , are so affected with weevil as almost wholly to deter farmers from growing,, it. It is quite difficult to save, the, grain ) after it is. harvested. It is sometimes put into casks or close bins, and the surface covered with flour of lime -two inches deep.- The lime is blown-out when the wheat is wanted for use. Ships when once infested with" weevil are.itnfit ttq r receive , another cargo. BaraS," -also; when infested become unfit for storing wheat. SokiTHiffd Netv'.A neighbor of mine had a very rough cellar bottom, and did not? want' to1 goo the-'expene of the cement, so , he took rhis coal ashes and mixed it; with water,'to the ordinary thickness of mortar. . It does not matter how many lumps or stones there are. Put it on "about four inches thick; let it lie twenty-four hours, then stamp it. with a heavy block of wood three or four times a day, until it is perfectly hard. It is better than cement, .as it will not crack or scale off. Cor. American Farmer. J. B.
