poorly tilled fields, which gave abun

Jn tfie counties of Johnson and Gage,

along the Salt Creek valley, we feel
convinced a better quality, and per-

Will be compelled to dispose'ofmfrch
oY their stock. Wheat is very short,
otwI Timnthv f not more than half
crop, and Oata but little better, while
corn showed a very irregular growth,
and much of a failure. The crops
outside of Nebraska and Iowa; I
think, would appear at any time, to a
frontiersman, as only half crops.
HEDGES.
So far as we were able lo see and
learn in reference to the growth of
hedges in Illinois, they have proven
failures.. In the first place-they are
greatly neglected, and. permitted to
to grow until, they become considera
ble trees, and after,, withgut -being
trinicd. and even those which are at-
tended to, arq not without their, fail
ures, in, many places. Judging from
the appearance of the hedges general
ly, an observer could ndfc otherwise
than come to the conclusion that the
farmers had lost all confidenceand all
hope of succeeding in thoroughly
raising good a substantial hedges.j
Probably we were expectingtoomuch
of what wo had heard of the growth
of hedges iii Illinois. We have hedges
in Nebraska which far excel those
seen along this line of road.

In Illinois the soil is in a measure
exhausted from incessant cropping;
but oh' good land, where the seed was
sown by the 20th of September, the
orops look about as well as in average'
years. A great breadth of land ha3
been sown, and the prospects are that
what is lost in the fertility of the soil
will be made up in the numberfof ''
acres under cultivation. .

Twenty 4r thirty pounds will 'do to
begin ,with ..Some uae, more, some
less. Let them press till next morn
ing, or towards noon ; then taxe on
the weight and board, and spread the
sheets, with the plants in them,over
the floor or ori a shelf. Ih'a few hours
they will be quite dry, and are'then
to bo. returned; to pressure. Ineach
successive day the, papers will dry in
less'time, andtthe;pressure should.be
increasedas they,get drier. Twqpiies,
one fresh arid theotherinoreadvauced,
should be used where many plan js are
dried. When quite dry"," the speci
mens are taken -out and laid asidefor
the. permanent, herbarium, -and the
plants.. This is an easy and iod
way 'of drying specimens, arid." the
colors will be as" well preserved: aa the
nature of the plants will admit, pro
vidwl th(i folds of the paper are thick
enouzh to abeorb the moisture of the
fresh specimens, and a dry" airy room
as erapioyea.
A morqperfect mode for some deli
cate plants, but requiring more time,
is toplace each plant in a thin Fold of
fine paper, and keen it thercthesame
as before mentioned, ahorhlng the
moisture by means of fresh twdsrof
newspapers, changed daily, but' with
out spreading the sheets out to dry, or
removing; the plants from the thin
paper. I have found the former mode
to do quite as; well, for most plants,
and better for some.
The herbarium, or book for holding
the plants, permanently, should fbe
