My neighbors, Messrs. Jona han Wonton and Thomas Bonner, sowed tae same kind of wheat about the same time, andu theirs shared the same fate.

Thee is much more feeling among us on the subject of imprevement in agricul ture and mechanics than formerly. I hope and anxiously expect that our stock rair in October, will have the desired effect.

The following article, from the Genesee Parmer, on the subject of fall ploughing, eems to Us judicious and well timed. It :oincides, too, with our previously formed pinions on the subject, which, we believe, ire those also or a majority of farmers. Ind yet. we understand that some or our most practical men, and best informed srners. aes opposed to the system. Mr, Villiam Wickhal. we understand, con emus it, and Mr. E. Winston expressed ) as his determination to abandon it. We iould be uuch pleased to learn the ob wtions of either of these gentlemen to ystem that is so generally approved. - say be, that their land is of the baracter alluded to itt the last pars rate, we should be ldi The following are the reasons giv ivor of fall ploughing: "The *Practical Farmer' says, the more tientific opinion is in favir of fall plough g, because to the action of air and meis- i ,tre it adds that offrost. whose sceptic or I iviina quality is second only to that of I e plough itself. in clay soils the pre- i aratioa should never he omitted; because n tslne the action of the frost is greater, ,d beesuse one ploughing of this kind, ay sare two in the spring, when time is very thing. -The Monthly Genesee Farmer. vol. 1. age 180, in an article on this subject. says: -jst. It is one of the established priuci lesof philosophical agriculture, that the i il derives nutch ofits productive proper- I v from the air, and that chemical ehan- i es and combinations are constantly going I a, by which fertility is much Increased.

"2.1. There is always on land more or ss grass, weeds, stubble, or other vegeta Ie matters convertible into mould by fer-. nentaion and decomnpositin, a process which is greatly aided by being turned un ir the surface of the earth.

(t is not 14e leas surprising, the peasatry in many pars or Europe esteem the -cow so highly. They take her into their friendly cottlages. and give her a warm bed in one corner, while she is feeding the fiamily.- 1 We have often wondered how it could be possible for the poorer classes of tha-cotnn try to live without the faithful cow. In deed. we have often asked ourselves if the produce ofthe cow is not the most impor tant part of our living. So far as we are concerned, we would greatly perfer all the quadruped tribes being annihilated, be fore we would give up the cow-the be.t friend of the brute race to man, There is nothing strange in the fact, that the English have done so much to improve their breeds of catle. and that good ani mals briog so high. prin when we r dfet upon their use Ut families, and to every individual. We have greatet desires to i see the cow still improved in this country, than any other stock, as swinish as we have seemed to te. In improvement of cattle, however. the people of the United States have done but little. We have imported some noble creatures, and some fair ones have been produced here, but we ask where the people are, in this country, that have studied properly the science of breeding and rearing fine cattle? We believe there has been but little system, and less science, known as yet with our most succesful stock growers. If we ever rightly appreciate the cow, we will understand the secret of breeding cattle of one shape for milk; another for beef; and still a third for oxen. We will learn the milk cow must havy light fore t quarters and brisket, thin neck, delicate a head, soft, silky coat, wide hips. and Ihin thighs; while the best animal for beef, has a short thick bead and neck, heavy quar lers, rond barrel and short legs; but the ux is louger in the limb, body, and indeed in all his proportions. When breeding a domestic animal' is reduced to a science, 6 the different hreeds for the milker, beef and ox, will be discussed with she greatest $ ravity, and the particular strutmue of each w will be considered indispensable. NotA wly so, but the proper inanagemeat-o cattle in each stage of the growth will be looked upon as a mailer of more impor- i ance than the attention now given to the racer in each year of its growth. When we esteem the cow as -ye should, we will have her winter quarters, in point ofcom ort, next to the family dwelling, and we will learn thatt even currying is at least as erviceab.e to the cow as the horse.. The t proof that we do nat put a proper esuimate b apun the cow requires no other argument is ian the fact, that not one faruser perhaps W n fifty has even a comfortablo shelter or wholesome winter food fur cattle. lb Pennessee, we have enough of the iknpro- tb 'ed breeds, and we trust a sufficiency of ;nowledge to romnence improving. I (we is lariersstudy our own comfort and in- d crest, %%e %ill produce breeds of cattle b sore valuable than any yet in ekistence. and the prices heretofore given for the best burt horned Durham, will be tn more than S--starting bid" fur them.
