JULY. 



MILDEWED WHEAT. 



Be very attentive to the wheat crops this month : 

 they are every where liable to this fatal distemper, 

 %Vhich admits but of one cure or check, and that is, 

 reaping it as soon as it is struck. The capital ma- 

 nagers in Suffolk know well, that every hour the 

 wheat stands after the mildew appears, is mischie- 

 vous to the crop. It should be cut, though very 

 green, as it is found that the grain fills' after it i$ 

 cut, and ripens in a manner that those would not 

 conceive vv'o have not tried the experiment, which 

 I have done many times ; reaping so early, that the 

 labourers pronounced I should have nothing but 

 henVmeat. They were always mistaken, for the 

 sample proved good, while others, who left if 

 longer, suffered severely. The fact is now prett^ 

 generally known and admitted* 



RYE. 



This gfajn is sure to demand cutting, perhaps 

 early in the month, and should be prepared for ac 

 pordingly. 



BUCK -WHEAT. 



I have known this crop succeed well and yieh| 

 largely, when sown so late as the first week in this 

 month ; and it is a very valuable circumstance, 

 that a man can have so long a period for tillage, 

 and then raise a crop which certainly classes with 

 ameliorating ones, and \vhicja prepares well for
