c gtgncultural. ACSRIC1TLTURAL FROC.RI3M IS DFllTEÜ TO .MIXIIAXICAL INVENTION. For the progrc that has boon malc ia the practice of Agricultnre. in the United State, within the last thirty years, the country is more iniM'tcd to tKc mechanic than to the former. Tanners, generally, hare leen content to follow ths practice of their fathers ' apparently nnJer the settled conric txon that the business admitted of no further improvement. The progress that has been xnaJo in the art and practice of fanning has bcn more the result of necessity, on the part of farm- cr in the introduction and use of the numerous valuable labor-saving ma chinas, which the prolific genius of American Mechanic has produced, than from any desire to change their practice of farming, with the view, alone, to improvement. The mechan ic, perhaps, is no better educated than the fanner, but his thoughts and in ventive powers arc constantly brought into action, in the exercise of his pro fession, and he naturally becomes elf educated. This opens the way for the invention of machinery for every de partment of manufacturing, as well as to facilitate and improve the various operations of farming. What, for instance, has Whitney done for the planter, as well as the com mercial world, by the invention of the cotton gin I In 1700 the production of cotton wjw but 3,600 bales, and iu 1853 it amounted to 3202.882 bales. This wonderful increase in the pro duction, of this great American staple, is due chiefly to this invention. Now the production and trade in cotton arc id to control, in a great degree the capital and commerce of the world. Indeed, it has, with sonic truth, been said that M Cotton is King." What Whitney has done for the cotton plan ter hardly equals what the celebrated Arkwright achieved for the manufac turer. - But within the period assumed in the introduction of this article, the greatest improvement in Agricultural implements and machinery have been made, and with the exception of the plow, we may reduce the time to much narrower limits. , Until the improvement of Jcthro Wood, of the present generation, the plows used by the American farmers were made generally by themselves, rr by the country blacksmiths, iu the ru dest form, with wooden mouliboard.s. nith. two straight sticks, surmounted with, a pair of cows horns, to serve as handles. With these plows it was üiiHcalt to turn a furrow more than four inches thick, while the plowing generally, throughout the country, did not scoed three inches in depth. Hie invention of Jethro. Wood, in substi tuting cast iron, for the wooden plow, brougat ate action athonsand minds, upon the subject, with the view to still further improvement, substituting wrought shares and points for the cast iron, and, at a still later date, polished stocl took the place of iron, with cor . responding improvements in the form of the plow, until, it would seem, that further improvement is almost impos sible. These improvements iu tlis plow have necessarily led to corres ponding improvement in plowing. Instead of imperfectly turning a fur row of but three incites in depth, as with the old plow, these improved im plemonts will easily invert a furrow six or eight inches in thickness pulven zing the soil in the most perfect man nCr. What has been the result of this improvement in practice to the farmer We answer, that in many soils the yield per acre, of crops in general, has been at least doubled, by affording deeper and more thorough pasturage for the roots of plants, while the waste ofiand, bv washing, is far less than fbxxnerlyl' What is true of the plow - in these respects may also be said of numerous other machines, now in daily use. Wc well remember when it was a very rare thiug to meet with an iron toothed harrow. The grouud. if harrowed at all, was very imperfect Ir done, and, as for a roller, such an irap!enant was almost entirely un known. With the plow of the pres ent day, the harrow and the roller, uch improvement may be made in the - mechanical preparation of the soil, for all crops, as once led the great Eu glish farmer, Tull, to the mistaken conclusion that he had arrived at the ultimate limits of improved farming. Another modern invention is the farmers. Four rear ago, -there was j tu-r back some diUnce from the road,! On the contrary, the song of the but one firm in that city which made so as to allow a bcantiful lawn in front, sewing machino would be as merry as them, and but few farmers, then, decorated with groups of ornamental the girl at her wheel, who idngs a song could 1 found willing to try them. trees, flowring shrubs, etc., etc. The like the lark ; and might be supposed Experience nas now established the house, if possible, should 1 on ground to run in this wise : fact, that the drilled what wdl yield rising gently from the road.

Look at the buildings. Is that farm house what it mi?ht have been at no more cost ? How badly it is proportioned. The j man who drew the plan had certainly never seen a work on architecture, and had no sense of proportion in his mind. Ho had no taste or you would sec there an elegant residence, pleasing the eye of every beholder, and costing no more money. Every farmer who has the means to build him a fine house, mansion, or whatever you may please to call jt, cannot make a better invest ment than to go to an architect, in any of nur cities, tell him the size of the house he want, number of room, etc., and get him to draw a plan an I make the specifications. It is true it will cost twenty-five or fifty dollars, but what is that in comparison to having a neat, elegant, pleasing residence for one's lifetime. Xo money of the amount can be so well expended on the building. It is the profession of the architec to prepare plans for houses, and, of course he caa do it far better than the farmers, whose attention has Wheat Drill, which u working a mighty revolution in wheat growing in this country. .

Every one for his particular trade and business should be the motto. Many farmers, of abundant means. m who might live in fine houses, still cling to their old uncomfortable tene ments. How few good houses dexs one sec throughout the country. Most of them are very poor, aud good taste would cause the owners to build heat and substantial dwellings, everywhere. Then again how little taste is some times displayed in selecting the proper site for a dwelling. Sometimes, and too generally, it is put immediately on tho road, when it wuld look far bt erson's Magazine and Putnam's Monthly." Our readers may recollect that wc have more than once asserted in the columns of the "Studio" that ma chinery is the great human emancipa tor ; that man is exempted from the bondage of toil by those inventions which supersede the use of bone and muscle ; that where a piece of mechan- i-ra is made to do the work of 10 men, while it employs but one, the other 9 arc left to the choice of other pursuits. Formerly it was necessary to expend a month in traveling from Boston to New Orleansnow a man travels the distance, by railroad in a week ; to trans in it nd obtain intelligence thitl cr and back was the work of months now, by means of the telegraph, a few hours suffice ; so it is in every depart ment of action ; the steam plow, the steam mill, and innumerable inven tions of every kind have so multiplied that man can almost stand aside, with his hands in his pockets, and see fire and water, wood and iron, do all his work for him. It was not till very recently that woman has participated in the benefits of machinery. Her toil hitherto has been minute, incessant, and to the last degree exhausting to life. To say that it has been exhausting to patience would be almost too trite for utterance.
