filiiply to iii'juhl them hy ekille.il lalwr
into ihu tnuuy u lo which advancing
civilization has u'liipted them Ou the
other hand, it is of essential service tn
the farmer that in ropeot to tree ho
should know smi'cthing nt least of b ith
these substances beyi.tnl t hi; fact that
iiie is wool kiid oue i nunc'.' Yih
him a tree stands as the representative
of nil kinds nf vejp'lubee, tin tlie repre
sents the ioil whieh bag fir ita basis of
fertility the disintegration of ricks
through countless ages, aud tilterution
of tb lime, thu potash aod the various
inorganic Huhstaoces whio.li they con
tain, and which are essential aiike to
the groth of forest tree uud that of
the grasses ot ttie beU.
We see, then, that die man who wish
es to raiso a tree iu the speediest nnd hest
inniiDer should know something of the
nature of thu roil oil whieh he proposes
the tree shall be grown; and to know
properly the ualuro of the soil be must
trace it buck to the rock, of whose sub
stance by the actiou of the sun, .the
wind, the frost, uuif tba rain, j crating
upon it through long ceoturies, tha fer
tilizing properties of all soils is largely
composed. Thus a ' kuowiedg'i i.f the
nature of both rock aiiJ tree is prima
rily valuable iu its relation to (he tirst
principle of good husbandry. It is
valuable, we repeat, but is not absolute
ly essential, for wo can continue to
farm as our grandfathers did, me, and
to raii-o good crops in a blind sort of a
way, without knowing anything of the
composition of soils or of that geboral
law which governs elike both animal
and vegetable life. We have no d oubt
that the old race of fanners were very
comfortable after their fahinn, and
those who desire to follow iu their foot
steps need not trouble themselves about
w hat they are pleaded to call "new fan
gled notions." To take thought as to
any improvement in agricultural pro
cesses may be to many men u worry
und the knowledge necessary to perfect
these processes a "vexatj.u of spirit,"
uad yet we respectfully submit, that
through this worry and vexutiou of
spirit all men must puss if they desire
to arrive at czeellcuce iu any dopurt
luent of life.
It was known ns fur bnck an the days
ofChaptal und iir Humphrey l'a.'y
that the fertility of a soil dupuuded nut
merely "u the preseuce in thu soil of
one or two leading" constituents, but in
tue fact that the soil cnutaiiitd all I he
vaiious constituents that me neoesrary
to thu growth of plants. It was also
known that the chief . cf theso, nnd
more essential than any other, were
lime, (he phosphates and potash, and
also that iu a course of cropping, pot
iish and the phosphates, from thu lurger
drain ma do upni them, were of ail oth-
rs tho snone.tt. exhausted. It was ul
these elements of fertility our eai'.ier
tanners made havoc. They cultivated
the laud largely in hoed crops, such as
corn and tobacco ; they drew nfT every
thing fioni the soil and put on couipara
lively little in return, aud so ) curly
year the nelds grew less and less capable
iif bearing profitable crops until they
were- fearfully turned out. as waste
liin.N. ,ook at the condithu of iIiomj
magnificent whetit lands of tjeuio .ee,
New ioik. Ouce they were the rich
est wheat hinds in the world. This w.i
10 lougcr tb in f nty yinr ago. The
aunual yield to I l.u uere i.n.yed theu
troin forty to fifty bush !. These same
lands will u it now uverage more than
twtlvc. (Jan anything morecouclu
sively illustrate the story of want and
improvidence ? Thu mural to whieh it
jioii.ts is (juiteas obvious.' It we woi
line horse without f.edii g Lint he will
rpeedily die. If we use our wagon
without repairing it, soma day it will
fall to pieces. It wo steadily drain from
our lull is their element of fertility,
they will grow poorer by degreen, until
eventually they become bHiren. The
rule then that should g ivt rn, that dots
indeed govern our best farmers, is to
rcturu more plant food annually to the
noil than tho crops take from it. Uy
this system rucli lauds are yearly bo
coming richer iustoad of poorer, and
yield larger crops thsn they did when
tbey were at their highest itiut of nat
ural fertility. ' ' Uui to kuow how to
make lands rich economically that is
to bay, without u waste of material
the farmer ought to have soma knowl
edge of the nature of his soil and of its
wants. If it contains un abundance of
lime, any addition of liiuo would be a
bupeifluity. If, on the contrary, it is
deficient jn lime, and is a rotten took or
inicacious soil, thn application of caus
tic lime will alo liberate and teudor
toluble the potash still reiimiuirg in the
soil, but ueeding such assistance lo set
it free and lender it useful to the grow
ing crops. This is the reaaon why in
renovutitig a soil nor utterly exhausted
and not wholly dctieiont in humus or
vegetable matter, lime coustiiutcs the
basin of all good husbandry. Alter
Jiuiing, a small qtikutiiy of manure up
plied tho tecouJ or third year will be
found toauliuoro benciiciallv than three

pieviously, and a g' od stand of clover
is then si cured This clover suffered
togrnwaud fu'l ilio lii'.t year, and
turned uuder the second, will furnish
r.ot otdy all tho vegetable matter the
noil requires, but will a id other con

but judicious rys'cm - of rotation to
