other desirable quality for tlieir respective uses. The fine stock of England, embra -icing every variety, is now proverbial. In the United States, Agricultural Societies have existed nominuNy, for about fifty yenrs. But defects in their orgaizalion, the abundance and cheapness of lands, and other causes?anil amongst their., the fact that most of our enterprising planters have had their thoughts too much engrossed in politics, Agricultural Societies have not served such beneficial purposes as they might hare done. It has only heen of late, say within the last 10 or 20 years, that very decided advantages- have resulted from them in this country. At the north, their improvement has heen very great indeed, even snclv as to warrarI? the conclusion that New England, in her steady and persevering habits, and her love of the needful, will not be long in attaining that excellence in agriculture for which her namesake. Old England is so distinguish ed. All these improvements are, and mny fairly be,'ascribed to Agricultural Societies, or their creatures, agricultural publications. Agricultural Societies have been found very efficient in exciting thought, enquiry and'discussion; and improvement has followed in their train. They have been the means'of introducing into general practice the improvements in culture, implements, seeds, plants, stork and every thing else of value, to the farmer or planter. Socially, they have had a happy effect, in bringing planters together, improving their acquaintance with each other, and thus strengthening the tics that hind them to one another and their country. For this alone, they deserve support, as it will doubtless, have the effect of checking that Spirit of emigration, whose "tide in its ftirrent westward has already swept wealth, population and patriotism before it.*' This *.?.a-consideration which addresses itself to patriot and philanthropist, and many " ' ? e e present win leei ine iuu mrcc m u, m,u .bare witnessed and experienced personally - ..^e injury which our District and State ? :ikve sustained from this inad desire for g?-v better land. Agricultural Societies will, in another fay, check this desire, by teaching us $at we can, by perseverance, and less cost J|?a.n a more to the west, make as good, or "letter soil of our worn lands in S. Carolina than we can find elsewhere. This brings me to my subject?the imjfrovement of our culture and lands?upon "fhich 1 had intended to dwell at some length, but having already exceeded the ^fmits which I prescribed for mj-celf. and possibly tried your patience, I will curtail my remarks, and offer but a few suggestions | On this head?which, though they fail to i entertain and instruct, will, 1 trust, at least induce out members to take up the study of the subjects, themselves, and give the Society at its stated meetings, the results of their reading, observation and experience. There are various modes of improving' 3ur culture and lands recommended and in j practice, all of which deserve considera-1 lion, but few suit our present system of j planting, as many of them apply more par* ficularly to farming. 4 In improving our culture and lands, the principles laid down as fundamentnl are: 1st. "That the soil ought to be kept dry, or as free as possible from superfluous moisture." c 2d. "That it ought to be kept clear or free of gi-ass weeds, and other growth noxious to.lfie plants in cultivation." 2d and lastly. "It ought to be kept rich, or that erery particle of munure that can be collected, ought to be applied, so that the soil can be kept in a state of improve* nient, and capable of increased production.*' The necessity of thorough draining, or keeping the soil dry, the first principle Jaid down, is so obvious, especially in the culture of cotton, that I fear it might be considered an insult to your understandings and practices were I to urge your attention more particularly to this branch of plantation management. I know that you are all fully aware of the injury which lands sustain from neglect of proper draining?the injurious effects of water upon most plants in cultivation?its interference at a wet season, with the proper working of a crop, and the consequent injury to the crop from not receiving the work in ?!ue mode and time. I know the practice of planters in our neighborhood is to guard against the evils enumerated, by paying * : .t i ' i ... '4t? littlest attention 10 ineir urains, uui as the system of draining pursued by most of us, in my opinion, is imperfect?being too superficial, and having in vietv, the facilitating the working of the land, rather than the quickening of the powers of the oil, 1 would, with due deference to the opinions and practices of more experienced planter* than myself, recommend in our swamp land, deep instead of superficial draining?in other words, ditching. Though the former, or prevalent mode may answer all the purposes of keeping IIIC 1WI VI j ?? ? Ml uiu^a |M| nit aiuu VI plough in ordinary scacons, I am induced to think that the latter will be preferable, as it will sink the water deeper, render the surface dryer, warmer and more friable to a greater depth, which must not only increase the facilities t?f working the land, but improve and increase its productiveness! o' The uext cardinal principle laid down is to keep theland clean or free from.grass, wetds, and other growth noxious to the plants in cultivation?the necessity o attention' to this principle or rule ii quite as obvious as that of the preceding? % ;v*- 4 jail acknowlcdgo its importance and its ob-1 aervance is strictly attended to, inasmuch ft'l ns the efforts of the planters throughout ,j< the working of the crops are directed to- j e wards keeping it clean?though in some in seasons, in spite of effort, the grass nnd|h weeds wilt gel the upper hand, the injuri- h ~ - * -?1 I onrl i K Otis eflitCtS Ol WltlCll you an ivimn, ouu *rill guard against, by adopting the most I) im pro red and approved implements and tl modes of working, as they may be intro- I duced amongst tis* The consideration of i this branch of my subject necessarily in- ? volvrs that of the different and improved t> agricultural implements in use amongst c us, and the various modes of operation, r bull will leave their consideration to you. and offer only two suggestions, which I g think important and well worth youradoption. 1 am induced, from observation and experience, to conclude that success- s (ul planting, in our old lands must depend, a in a great measure, upon a regular system of manuring, and frequent stirring of the land. As this can't be done with the present practice of heavy planting to the hand, I would recommend planting less, a and an increase of ploughs in proportion n to the force of hoes. This would enable ii the planters to work over their crops more frequently?to keep them in bettpr order, ? omt iKpir Imnds from continued hard h ' work and exposeure in had weather, anil c their lands from the injurious effects of be- b ing worked out of order?not to mention s the increased facilities and time which the t change would afford for making manure r and improving lands, and attending to all c minor details of plantation affairs. o The third and last principle laid down [ is, that the land should be kept rich, or ) that every particle of manure that can be A collected, ought to be applied, so that the fi soil can be kept in a stale of improvement, il and capable of increased production. This principle, though the most impor- s tant, constituting as it does, the ground- 1 work of success in planting, is least at- r tended to. That this should be the case, I must be a matter of surprise to those who A view its importance. But it is enough for o us to know that it is neglected, and that y we should enquire into the C3use of such p neglect. Can it be, I would ask, that the g i operation of making and applying manure, v and keepin4 the land in heart, is more b difficult and expensive, or attended with less profit and pleasure than the operations h of keeping it dry and clear? 1 should h think not, as my experience leaches mc it is it not?but, perhaps, there are some that r think otherwise. If 60, let me urge ti them to prepare for, and undertake the tl work of making and applying manure with tl the right spirit and upon a scale com- o mensurate with its importance, and my u life upon it, they will find that the sup- n posed difficulties will dwindle-into in- p significance?the expense will be greatly tl overbalanced by the profits, and pleasure tl of enriching and improving our estales, p and rendering them suitable inheritances s for our children, will compare with most o of the pleasures in the different pursuits of u life.
