SangervilJc, May 8, 1841. Mr Edt3S?In conformity to my prom, ise la9t spring, that [ would let you know t the result of the experiment I recommend- ^ ed to prevent the destruction of wheat by the weevil?viz: sowing Rye with Wheat. I forward this communication. ^ I sowed two quarts of rye to a bushel t . of wheat, the rye blossomed a few davs ^ before the wheat, and I observed the fly C on it busiiy employed as soon as it was in t blow: and found to my satisfaction that t when the wheat came into blow they still ( committed their depredations on the rye. ^ The rye by branching, keeps up a supply in a proper state for them to work on un. ? - ...... . ? .i 1' til they finish their business tor the sea- " son. The last week of their work the J weather was very calm, and the flies were ' extremely busy on the rye, but very sel. dom to be seen on the wheat. The result n was the rye was a total failure, for, take c a handful of heads as they come, and you 0 would r.ot find more than one kernel to r seven or eight heads. The wheat was not damaged scarcely any. I should not ^ think there was more than two kernels Q missing in a head by the weevil. I found 0 in some instances more than thirty egg a j in with one kernel of rve, so many generally that there was not enough for them ^ to subsist upon, and they of consequence all died. Now, Mr. Edes, I think it much ^ easier to bait them to their own destruction than to drive them with skunks, hedghogs, pr even Loafer's long nines. I J. LEACH. Piscataquis Herald.

It admits of being sown as fl soon as the 15th of September. My pre- b sent crop is so luxuriant, that, a month h past, I was advised to mow or graze it, o notwithstanding a heavy harrow had been passed over it." d Mr. Taliaferro has furnished the fob d lowing history of the wheat described, in i( a letter to Mr. Gray. The latter gen- t tleman, in communicating the same to o K the editor of the Planter, under date of I 3d inst. says?44 Up to this date there is t no appearance of fly in my crop, whilst I an adjoining field is materially injured by a that insect." l< HAGLEY.May 22, 1811. t Dear Sir,?Your note, desiring a history y or the wheat you had of us last fall, is re- r ceived, and I regret that my information b in regard to its origin, does not enable * roe to give such an account of it as may b bo satisfactory te you, or to your agricul- c turn! friend in Richmond. In a conversa- c tion with my friend, Dr. A. Naudaine, b United States Senator from Delaware, t about 5ve years since, oo agricultural, topics, I mentioned the ruinous ravages committed by the Hessian fly on our crops of wheat in Virginia, whereupon he informed me that the farmers in Delaware had for some years cultivated a species of ivhe it entirely exempt from the ravages sf that insect; and he kindly offered to send me a specimen of it for trial. Accordingly five years since he sent me a fraction over two bushels1 of this wheat, ind we now have the fifth crop of it, and i remarkable fine one it is, without the east injury from Hessian fly, or rust, two formidable adversaries to wheat. During ill this time our other descriptions of j vheat, in juxta position in the same field, ind often on very superior land, as well ( ts that of our neighbors, have been seru < >usly injured both by fly and rust. Such s my experience in regard to this wheat, < ind such is the result in all cases where it < tas been tested hy many to whom we i lave furnished it the last two years tor sxperiment. A few facts in relation to his wheat will satisfy any farmer why it i scapes the Hessian fly necessarily^ and rhy it is more exempt from rust and rot, han any other winter wheat. It will be i bund by all whetry it, to possess more I mergy of root than any other known j vheat. So that if seeded, as it ought to i >e. betweeen the 15th and 25th of Sep- i ember, though the fly will attack and cut , iff the fall shoots, its energy of root is uch as to leavethat uninjured. And in he spring, owing to this energy of root, ' he growth is more vigorous and rapid < han any other winter wheat, so that by 1 he 15th of April, a few days before the 1 pring fly begins to hatch, the ground- 1 lintof this wheat becomes hard and sa- < less, and consequently free from the ? pring ravages of the fly. This wheat I ipens about one week earlier than any J ther winter species, and is, therefore, nore exempt from rust and rot. All I < ould learn of Dr. Naudine as to the origin ' f this wheat was, that it came from Ger- I nany, but by whom it was introduced ' ato Delaware he could not inform me. 1 Lll who cultivate this wheat should not 1 mit to sow it between the 15th and 25th 4 f September?in all that month will do. J t should be seeded thick, because if thin, 1 be uncommon weight of the head will ' ear much of it down. And it should ot be harvested till fully ripe, for if cut in "?e milk state, the grain assumes a dark 1 nd unsightly aspect. Unless we could 1 et rid of the Hessian fly, I have never ' nown so desirable a species of wheat as 1 lis. ' I am, dear sir, faithfully yours, 1 J. B. Gray, Esq, John Taliaferro. ! the rose-bug. ( "b the Editor of the American Farmer : This little insect wherever it is known , tall is known to be extremely destruc- j ve to some other flowers as well as the < - a _ >se, and is sometimes so numerous as 10 , estroyall the early cherries, the hautboys, j le grapes, and sometimes the more deli- , ate varietiesof the peach. Many years | tge I hare often lo<t al these fruits ex ept some of the varieties of the peach by f lese destructive insects. Of late years ? ley have done me little or no injury, and ley are nearly extirpated from iny prem- ( ies?they are only to be seen at the places j f their destruction?these are Linden ees when in blossom. When these trees rst begin to blossom about my yard and arden, at one ot them over a hard naked alk, I was surprised to find the rose bug, f hich had been vastly numerous and de- t ructive for many years before, dead in ^ reat quantities under it?as many as a ? int or quart might be swept up under it t a time dead. My first impression was, lat the bugs died about the linden tree j fter depositing their eggs and terminating s ieir natural career, but such is not the ict, and I now speak with confidence ftcr several years observation and experiace when I say, the blossom of this tree estroys them, and will extirpate or nearly t i the race from its immediate vicinity, on t farm on whirh thev ptow. This fact ' I "" " J | ;ems to be out of the ordinary course of s ature, for we are taught to believe that t 11 animals in a natural state are led by f \ie wise instinct of nature to avoid that, c rhich will poison or dostroy them. In 1 jshing into the enjoyment of the delicious t agrance and honey of this flower, they t recipitate themselves on their own de. c (ruction. t I state the/act, for the information of r orists and fruiterers, and hope that those r etter skilled in philosophy and natural c istory, may solve the seeming heterodoxy t f it. On visiting Mr. George Law's resi. 1 ence at the west end of your town some } ays since, which may well be styled the < muliumin parvo" of good and pretty f hings, I could but ask the question why t ur brother farmers should send to New t England for pigs, when they may find all [ he European improved varieties in Mr. 1 jaw's possession, bred with great care, I nd which may be bought at prices much 1 Dwer than the prices at the north ? Is a 1 king better in proportion to the distance i rou go after it, and the risk of its loss you t un in transporting it?or is an animal i red in Europe and costing thirty guineas, 1 vith the cost of transportation added? ^ etter than the same animal bred in this t :ountry f om the same parents at a cost 1 >f twenty dollars? This is another pro- f dera which I will thank you, Mr. Editor, j 0 solve. T.

Upon examining the roots, i:hey are found diseased and full of tubercles, which, upon being opened, contain a redish powder and animaleulae ;?the plants, incapable of bringing their seed to perfection, con* tinue some time in this state and then die away, reducing the crop, both in quantity and quality, to almost nothing. Potato oats are more liable than others to this disease, and early crops hate been attacked, while thosiof very inferior quality, and cut green, have escaped. Were a discovery to be made of the cause and cure of the disease, it woi ld confer an obligation on the farming interest to make it known." Note.?In our experience of this dis. ease in oats, we have always observed its An tka eamo nrvrtlnn ftf |Ka lu^uiiollvu ull iiiv ouiiiv> pv/? ??vm *' '"v field ; and believing it from this circumstance to be a local affectian, we have, by local draining, succeede d in effecting i perfect cure.

J oar, Chinese silk Cotton.?We have bad left with us a. specinen of this new species of Cotton, which we would be pleased to show our Friends. For fineness and beauty of texture, and length of staple, it is, without i exception,the most superiorlirticle we have sver seen. Specimens of the plant, together with the cotton in the seed and boll, are to be seen at Messrs. Anderson. Walker & Co's. It differs from the :ommon cotton and the Okra cotton both, in having no large branches?the plant growing in a straight stem, with the bolls growing in clusters around it, generally five in a cluster. It matures, also, more rapidly than common cotton, and sonsequentlyjshould not be planted earlier than the 12th or 20tl* of May. We deem it cmioently worth a trial in this latitude. ?Memphii En, Patent Shingle Cutter.?When we called attention to this machine last week, we had not then se?n it; we have iince taken occasion to examine it and witness its performance. It is indeed rery simple in its construction, but is only he more valuable on that account, since t requires no great mechanical skill to mild one and put in complste operation, either by water, horse, or hand power. Die shingles which it turnaout, are supeior to any drawn by hand, and are fit :or use as they come from the machine. With horse or water power, we suppose it would easily cut twenty or t hirty thousand n a day. By lengthening the blade, it -night be made to cut staves for barrels or tubs with the same facility. The followng certificates furnished us by Afr. Tor. -anee, confirm what we have said of it. Die right for the county i;i for sale. I do hereby certify that I have pur. ;hasad of Messrs.

For steerc and working ixen, I prefer the Devons to any other ireed ; as their fine horns and beautiful 'ed co/or, united with their quick, graceful notions, give those of tho same weight, ivor aIKap Kroorta a nnoa vart-ini* I'rom I "VI V?UVI Ul VVVI^J w |/IIVV VUIJ lug * I 110 to 840 per pair more. For cows, the Durhamsstand unrivaled for their superior milking qualities; fet when we consider their color and :oarseness of flesh and the quantity of bod consumed, they are not so much he Holderness, or a cross of the Durham ind Devon and Holderness, which suit >urchasers generally full as well as the Durham. I have frequently sold a cherry ed cow when driving, for full as much as [ could a Durham, where the blood of the Devon was evidently to be seen, from the ine color and horns taking the fancy of he purchaser. But I would not by any neans wish to be understood to rank the Devon or Holderness in the same class vith the Durham, but would either advise he cross, or the pure Durhams for cows. [ would also suggest the evil which results rora the too frequent practice of many of four farmers in overfeeding their bulls or >ure bloods, of either kind mentioned, vitb grain, die. dec. in order to make a great show to their neighbors, in the si of the animal, and also in publishing t weight, at 7,12 and 18 months old, whi< is proof sufficient that they are not prop animals for sires. More especially whe this practice has been persevered in 1 some two or three generations. It isge erally known that the offspring of healtl men. who live and wade in luxury, hai down to their posterity a curse whii will follow them through life, and whii cannot be easily shaken off; and mc certainly whore two or three generatio follow the practice of their ancestoi their bodily powers sinking into nume ous complaints incident to the humi family. So with the brute creatio And, depend upon it, if you rear calv from bulls that have had their digesti organs distended, the same will be bar ded down, and if not fed with the str bountiful hand, such stock will sink in comparative insignificance. It would be much better for those rai irig stock to seek that their bulls shou be fed well; that is, have as much go - as* a 1 hay as they wish to eat, ana Kepi as n old saying is, "heart whole." A fe roots in winter, say given as often once a week, would be advantageous p< haps, and advisable, as in winter all at mals like a change from dry hay,makii them most41 hearty." I noticed a small stock of very ft Devons in Sheldon, in this country; al a fine Deyon bull, near Le Roy; al a fine herd of Durham*, the property Mr. Remsen, near Alexander, and tl very Devon bull, Red Jacket, near Batat the property of a Mr. Cone, lately fro Connecticut. All the above named cattle I wou particularly recommend to the farmers Gennesee county, as they have not, think, been over-fed, any cf them suf ciently to injure their stock. Mr. Coi assured me that he had let his bull ri with his other stock, none of which hi any food but hay and atra< This is tha best way to produ fine stock.

Rest assured that go blood improves your stock, but great fe to particular animals should be condei nsd.

Since my former article, in relation i crushed corn meal, was communicated the Register, I hare been informed by tl highly intelligent iron-master, therein a hided to, that he kept his mule teams, < six each, fat last lummer, though hard i work every day, on a daily allowance < one bushel of cruiihe-d corn meal, and tl -t ti same quantity ot bran, mixed tnorougni together and fed with cut straw?with moderate quantity of clover hay in tfc rack. With corn ait 371-2 and bran t 19 cents a bushel, ithis mode offeedin would reduce the cost of a six- mul team to less than thirty cents a day, < five cents a mule, exclusive of hay an the straw mixed with the meal. A sit gle calculation will show every farm< how much he could gain every year, b adopting this economical mode offeedin h is work horses; dc ubtless enough in a lift time to buy a respectable farm for h sons. I was also informed by this gentlema who is one of the best farmers and mana gersl ever knew, that he fattened twent bullocks last fall on crushed corn meal, t much less cost than he could have fa tuned in any other way. He is decidedl of opinion that he saves more money b crushing and grinding his corn, than b - a a ny other economical process practised c his extensive estate; and I know no one i whose sound practical judgment I hai grater confidence. As my sheet is not full, I would add word on another subject. A respectab' neighbor informs me that he has preserve his bacon for twenty years, without tY loss of a single piece, whitewashing etc joint, on the fleshy side and at the end < of the hock early in the spring, before tfc fly deposites its eggs. He gives the pi< ces a thick coat of ordinary white.was! with the common brush, then hangs thei up in his smoke-house, where they remai until taken down for use.

This i gentleman having concieved a plan for 1 vc getting rid of the inconveniences of the . ordinary steam paddles, has been for some i 1 time working out hie theory, and has only i ne very recently brought it into practice.^? 1 t0 The apparatus of M. de Jouffroy, consists | of two pains of articulated duck's feet, ( >s* placed either at the sides or stern of a 'Id vessel, having an alternative motion, so as od to open, in order to give the impulsion, IP una citr?e ngmu |?ici:iacijf kin wuk m mw >w foot of the duck. M.de Jouffroy's first ex* as periment was made in the canoe of the >r. Jardio, de la Folia, St. James, near the Bois de Boulogne, with the model of a OK frigate, made on a scale of 1 foot to 37 feet, and so constructed that the common paddles or his improvement might be used ne at will. With the common paddle, they 90 performed a distance of 130 feet in aev* s? en minutes; the paddles having performed ? 130 revolutions: at this the propelling ,? was completely exhausted. The common 18 paddles were then taken off, and the >m duck'a-foot paddles submitted. With j, 180 oscillations of these paddles, the r vessels performed, in the same space of ?. time, a distance of 158 feet; but what was the most remarkable was the fact, that instead of stopping short when the clock-work, which in both cases put the machinery in motion, had rundown the 1 impulsion communicated to the vessel by w' the steady and undeserved motion of the ? duckVfoot was sufficient to keep the 19 vessel moving 150 feet more* This ex* ' ? periment was in both cases against the * wind. With the wind the vessel per' * formed with the common paddles 160 feet in eight minutes, the paddles giving 182 , resolutions: the impelling power having 6 ceased, the vessel scarcely moved. When n* the new paddles were put on, the distance performed in the same length of time | 0 was 230 feet; and the clock-work having e run down, the vessel so far from stopping !r* performed in eight minutes a farther dis* | n* tanee of 160 feet. The report on these \ 1 experiments by the Committee of the In* 10 stitute composed of practical knowledge i is highly favorable; In their opinion, t the experiments on a small scale are suf* J ficiently conclusive to induce them to re* 1 commend to the French government, in r _ strong terms, the addopting of M. de * Jouffroy's principle, which was allowed 1 to by many scientific gentlemen present to to be superior in many respects, to that of o le the Archimedean screw, which has been e J* found so valuable in getting rid of ^ nf the strain upon the vessel and the agita* ftt tion of the water, which is so destructive ? in canals and so dangers in river navi. {j * ?*i j * m _ gniion. hnouicrauviiinogo i?, .us. ? ?. u y de Jouffroy's principle may be adapted tl 8 to vessels of any construction.?N.

The patent anchor invented ty, by Mr. Porter differs from that in com. ? * mon use by the arms being movable: t< " ? f - : J 4l>. ka.J tl n iney m imujaws itnuicu m mo ucau ?# | ,e the shank, and secured with a pin or piv. j? ot on which they move in byone direction: q a this means, when inuse one arm is brought 0 le quite down upon the shank; thus remov. b >d ing a great source of danger to shipping l: le and also lessening considerably the ? :h strain or leverage on the shank. A further ti ?f advantage presents itself in the improved tl ,e construction which the patent anchor ad- lj raits of. The arms and shank of a com- ( ' mon anchor being made in seperate pei. ^ I11 ces, and then welded to the crown; the tl 4 risk, in the hour of peril, of failure from one unsound weld, is great. But in the patent anchor, the shank and arm* being g made apart, the latter can be laid up with bars extending from pea to pea, thereby * securing the full strength of the metal, r.

From a personal inspection of this anchor, and a perusal of certificates of its efficiency, from officers uf the highest rank in H.
