Reamer LTUK A l, . ? ^ FALL PLOVGIIIAO. The1 Monthly Genesee Farmer, vol. 1, page ISO, in an article on this subject, * says: 1st. It is one of the established principles of philosophical agriculture, that the soil derives much of its productive pmpcrfi-nm the air;>-and that chemical chan v ? - . - . ges and combinations arc constantly going on, !>y which fertility is much ii -.reased. Those alternative effects of the a'-j mosphere, and these changes of the] qualities of the soil, arc the more active] and efficient as new surfaces arc exposed : to new action. For instance, much great-1 er quantities of carbonic gas will bo absorbed by a given surface of earth, if the 1 earth, is frequently stirred, than if it was; allowed td"remain with a single saturated surface. Ploughing, by exposing new surfaces to the action of the atmosphere, must be productive of essential benefit; I ? and as fall ploughing generally takes place! after crops which have partially exhausted the surface of some of its nutritive; ? * and absorbent qualities, its service in aid ' of spring crops is greatly enhanced. -2d. There is always on land more or! less grass, weed-, stubble, or other vege-j table matters convertible into mould by j fermentation and decomposition, a process! which is greatly aided by being turned ? under the surface of the earth. Fall j ~i?.mniiope cnr.h substances much ; piUU?U.II? iv..v,v..~ sooner available in advancing the growth ! of crops, than they would be if left un- j * . covered during the winter, independent of the great loss necessarily sustained by the! * washing away of the litter materials and I their dispersion by tfie winds. 3d. Nothing acts more efficiently on j moist soils in promoting vegetation, than j high pulverization; and fall ploughing aids this operation most c5feentially. Lands that if ploughed in the spring only, will in large cakes t>r lumps, defying Ep^j^Jie/effbrts of the farmer to reduce them suitable, will if ploughed in the fall, he .-4 . Xound loosened in texture and fitted for " early operations in the spring of the year, j '" Frost is the most disintegrator of the! ' soil with which the agriculturist is ac-1 quainted, and he should avail himself off its available labors in all practicable cases. ^ / 4th. The earlier the ground can be prepared for the suitable reception of spring crops, such as corn, spring wheat j and barley, the better it will be found for i the cultivator; and in nine cases out of, ten, earty sown crops are the heaviest and ' mqjfproductive. 5th. Ploughing land acts more eflectu-1 ally in destroying insects than any other j mode of treatment, and fall ploughing for j this purpose is preferable to any other.? ' Those insects which produce the most' " cnrh as the ffv. miscmei 10 nic lunnvi, w? ? cut-worm, grub, &c., cannot resist the frost of our jvintcrs, if prematurely exposed to its acti >n by a fall ploughing.? The cut-worm which accumulates in such numbers in old meadows and pastures, is thus destroyed, and crops planted on them saved. Lastly. Our summers are so limited in duration, that unbss the time allotted . . .. to vegetation is fully occupied by the growth and ripening of plants, the certain jailu re of crops may be anticipated, fence the farmer usually is more hurried By his work in the spring than he ought to be, in order to avoid having his crops caught by the the frost and snow. It should be the object of the farmer to have his necessary labor as nearly _ equalized through the season as possible, and thus avoid all pressure at inconvenient v: .^-fiBbasons of the year. Experience shows ^'that the farmer in most cases, has more leasure hours in the fall of the year than at any other time, and he who would work it right, should employ this 4.ime in advancing his next sp> trig's work?for such, fall ploughing emphatically is?and thus preventing the pressure of business than usually felt. Tomatoes for Cows.?It is not generally known that this vegetable is a superior article for food for Milch Cows. XVc. have tried it two Summers, and find it decidedly superior to any other vegetable we have yet tried. They add greatly to the quantity, as well as the richness of * the milk, and give a rich golden color to jthc cream and butter, which is at least . pleasant to the eye, even if the flavor is not improved. , We do not know however, that they impart any richer flavor to the butter. We have known a cow to refuse them fwhen first offered, but soon become very fond of them, others?we believe, a large mrjorilv, eat them greedily from the first. Thus far we have ied them only in the raw state, but ifb iiled'with corn meal, say Uftii auci imuf iwu uiiitis iwiiuiuw ...v; would doubtless be far better. Tyrone who has a dairy farm, the cultivation of an acre or two in tomatoes would be repaid by greater profit than; any vegetable we know. From one acre not less than eight bushels might be gathered daily From July until frost. There is some trouble in picking tlrcm, but then j nearl^fivery farmer has some small negroes, of but trifling value in the field, that might be very usefully employed ai few hours each day in this work- In fact * ^9*' I if the farmer has children, his little boys | | ?aye, and his boys loo, would not be I worse ol a little work. V/c should .be; iglad to sec the experiment, tried on a larger scale than ours, and learn the result.?Temperance Advocate. Female Seminary* Camden, Kcrsliaw District, & C.
