The.Fly in \\ hunt.

As tliti Hessian Fly is making great-ravages in the wheat crops both in Ohio and Kentucky this season, we : may as well communicate our own experience, as well as that of many old fanners who have cultivated wheat many years, that the Hessian Fly, as it is called, almost in* variable early sown wheal-in the latter - part of autumn, and slier experience has also proved, that wheat sown eery late is equally liable " to destruction in the following spring, a« is now the casevaccording to the information we have recently received from tlje neighboring country. »- tn • dn.it - — co litre, sowing our wheal, if possible, between about tbe 8ih and last of October. The oldest ~fanperd inform us that, having adopted this -course, viz. sowing after the first autumnal frost, that the wheat may not be above ground until the auiuuiii fly has perished, with a. good soil and .good culture to insure rigorous growth, (the present Wet season of course forms an exception lo tho general ruin .of growth in this'respect,) they have- never sufiered any loss from this insect.' Hume recorded by agricultural societies, of sowing caustic lime upon the grain, particularly while there is dew upon ibe ground, in the spring of the year, seem to encourage the idea, that it saves the crop, at least partially, from the fly. It is at any rate worthy of further trial, and we shall be glad ifany ofour fanners will inform us of any results-that may .strengthen the probability of this application f being successful. Warm and unreasonable weather late in the autumn, as was the caseKst year, will favor the work of destruction of this insect aj that lime. The spring insect is more likely to do mischiefWhen wheal is sowed so lair as to be muck stinted'by the severity of winrer frosts, aiid therefore in the beginning of spring its growth is not sufficiently strong to outlive the attacks it may receive from this pest. We jnay elatp shortly, until more new lights shall be thrown upon this subject, which we trust may be done. by some of oar practical farmers, that the best precautions to be taken against this interloper on our prosperity in raising the "staff of lilo,” i?,<on very, poor land, manuring well; making use of a heavy roller after the chrysalis or grub is formed in the autumn, or in the spring before it is hatched; ploughing up llm stubble deep, and thus burying it, and afterwards harrowing it, and again in the springy burning the stubble, an operation which, if thoroughly done, must destroy the grub most effectually; pasibring in 'the spring‘on strong lands, and when rank in growth; and last, but not least, os before stated, sowing the tvlieat*as far as a knowledge of the season wi’l permit, at a medium distance .between tbe fust and last frosts of autumn. This insect first made its appearance in New Kpgland, according 10 Dr. Dwight, in his Travel in jVmc England, in 1737, and advanced ai the rate of twenty miles a year, destroying the crops ofeijtire districts and rendering itimpoisible to cultivate a particular variety of wheat. The bearded varieties of wheat seem to'be more free from its incursions, the stem being, stifler and stronger linn the smooth eared varieties,

HU mode of preserving so perfectly a vegetable which, while }t can be kept sound) all consider bo valusble, hut which has generally been found to bo delicate if nd perishable, ia-worthy of being-noted. \Vo understand his system to be, to cover the ftpacc in hi* barn intended for their preservation with dry straw, say a "foot or eighteen ■ inches thick.
