Pcabody'a Prolific Corn.
Having heard much of this corn lust fall,
and seen some stalks oThibitofl in tliSi.
. . *
curiosity led us, on Saturday last, to pay
Mr. Poubody a visit, with a view of seeing
its appearance in the field at its most inloresting
fctato, that of silk and tassel. Mr.
Poabudy has in Cultivation Home, fifty or
acres of sandy pine land, in this com. Of
courso the land is highly manured and well
cultivated, as without it, this year, it. could
scarcely produce, twenty bushels to the acre.
Wo were over the whole of his corn, and
must say we never saw its equal in productiveness.
The yield is from two to seven
ears to the ."talk. We saw a few stalks on
a spot made rich by being near an old
house, that were eared from the ground to
within about thirty inches of the tassel ;
they resembled trees of con* The prospect
presented, of the whole crop, wo are
waiiuucu, in nu ifsi oi wnai couui be produced
on the name land with proper seasons.
The crop had gone through a five
weeks drought in its most critical period,
so much so that the fmtr bottom blades of
the foodder on each stalk, on most of it,
had fired and dried. Tho crop was relieved
about five days previous to our visit, by a
moderate rain, and two days previous by a
good season, which was accompanied by
wind that prostrated much of the most
heavy ladenod.
Our opinion is, that the yield from the
land in cultivation will bo from seventy to
ninety bushels to the acre. With the or
dinary corn, and the usual cultivation, the
snmo land, we arc satisfied from comnari
sons, would not yield, this year, an avorago
of eight bushols to the aoro. If such results
can be produced on the poor pi 110
lands of Ru*iiell, what might not he done on
the rich black lands of Macon and Montgomery
1 the rich black and canebrake lands
??f Lowndes, Dallas, Wilcox, Marengo, Perry.
and fircone counties, in South Alabama,
and the rich mountain lands of North Carolina,
and the Tennessoe Valley, to say nothing
of the productive lands of Tennessee
and Kentucky, and the great West ? From
the spectacle presented, we are satisfied
the yield on good lands, from Mr l'.'s variety,
must be double, if not three times
that of the common variety. This, in these
tinier of corn scarcity, is certainly a matter |
over which farmors should ponder. If two
bushels can be produced 011 tho s.unn lnnrl
and with the same labor that now produces
one, it is important that every planter
should tnke steps to Mipplant the common
corn with the Peabody variety.
Mr. P.'s mode, of culture in important to
the forming interest, and should he known
and practiced by every farmer, whether he
cultivates ten or a thousand acres. His
mode of culture requires very little more
labor than is ordinarily bestowed, and the
yield is fully three fold. At a future day,
when we arc more at leisure, we shall have
somothiug more to say on this subject.
