acre and a half. The field was sown with .Rape, and the 

 crop waa quite equal to the other part of the field, which 

 was manured with dung aril mould. — Sussex Agricul- 

 tural Express. 



Crieff. — Professor Johnston delivered two interesting 

 lectures here lately on the Composition of the Soil, and 

 on the Use of Manures. The following are short 

 extracts :— By a geological map and analytical tables, 



composition of soils, enter- 

 of the substances found in 



the Professor illustrated the 

 ing into a detailed account 

 them, and in the crops they produced ; thus showing 

 that a soil might be quite capable of producing one sort 

 of crop, while inadequate to produce another. Soils 

 often contain noxious matters, such as oxide of iron, &c, 

 |n too great quantity, rendering them barren ; and he 

 instanced a district in Fife, that he had visited some days 

 ■before, where the crops for a time succeeded well, but at 

 a certain stage of their growth suddenly gave way. and 

 on examining the subsoil K- '— J « impregnated with 

 oxide or iron, and thus whenever the roots or the plants 



penetrated the subsoil they were poisoned. Though the 

 soil should appear dry, he recommended draining and 

 subsoil ploughing as the cheapest way to get rid of such 

 noxious matters. Professor Johnston well illustrated 

 the relation between the soils and the crops they pro- 

 duced, showing that however small the inorganic sub- 

 stances the crops contained, yet they were just as requi- 

 site for the maturing of the plant as the glue and the 

 nails, though small in bulk, were necessary in the con- 

 struction of a box. The application of manure, therefore, 

 its kind, amount, and the frequency of it, must depend 

 upon the presence or absence in the soil of the chemical 

 substance referred to, and the kind of crop to be raised, 

 •o that there may be given to the land the elements that 

 the crop requires. In his second lecture, the Professor 

 spoke of the exhaustion of the soil. Whether by a suc- 

 cession of different crops, or by a succession of a parti- 

 cular sort of crop, the elements forming the crop will 

 show the elements that have been taken from the soil, 

 and which it will be necessary again to add, in order to 

 restore it to a condition of fertility. But the soil may 

 also be exhausted otherwise than by cropping. A con- 

 siderable number of the substances composing the soil, 

 such as potash, chlorine, &c, are soluble in water; and 

 hence it will be manifest that the rain must wash much 

 of these elements away. By means of draining, the rain, 

 instead of trickling away over the surface of the soil in a 

 few channels, is diffused equally through the ground, 

 carrying with it to feed the crops the substances that 

 would other .vise be carried away and lost. The waste of 

 manure from other causes wa3 then alluded to. It is 

 notorious that, under the present mode of managing it, 

 the rain washes a great portion of the soluble substances 

 of farm-yard manure out of it ; the waste thus needlessly 

 encountered is greater than the advantage gained from 

 all the guano used in this country. The portion of the 

 manure so lost would, if it were saved, and converted into 

 grain, be more than equal to the value of all the foreign 

 Corn that is annually imported into this country. 



Miscellaneous. 



Good Farming. — It may be laid down as a st-mding 

 rule, and as a guide to direct our exertions, that all good 

 farming, the whole of that process by which bad land is 

 to be converted into good, or laud naturally good and 

 productive is to be continued in that state, is comprised 

 in the three following operations of husoandry. 1. To 

 carry off all stagnant and superfluous water by means of 

 judicious draining. 2. To return through the medium of 

 manure, the strength and fertility which has been extracted 

 from the land by cropping. 3. To eradicate all noxious 

 weeds, that the strength of the manure may be thrown 



into the crops and not into the weed Raiostorne's 



Remarks on Lancashire Farming. 



We understand, in reference to the Yorkshire Land- 

 Draining Association, that an amply sufficient amount 

 of stock is already taken to insure the commencement of 

 active operations at the earliest opportunity, and that the 

 applications are daily increasing.

Scral Chbmistkv. By Edward Solly, j., F.R.S., Experi- 

 mental Chemist to the Horticultural Society of London, Hon. 

 Mem. of the Royal Agricultural Society, and Lecturer on Che- 

 mistry at the Royal Institution, has been reprinted from the 

 Gardeners' Chronicle, with additions, and may be had of all 

 booksellers, price 45. 6d. 



Bonk-bruisinc— W. II., Reading.— The paragraph you send is 

 extracted from a previous No. of the Agricultural Gazette. 



Bonk-dust AXD Sulphuric Acid.— J/. C. Shomberg.— To tine 

 bone-dust apply about half its weight of sulphuric acid, and 

 dilute it with its volume of water. See an article by Mr. Lawes 

 on this subject a few weeks ago. 



Buttercups in- Pastures.— Cheshire Fanner.— Wc do not 

 know for certain any plan of eradicating these weeds, but we 

 have heard that geese will root them up to feed on them, 

 and that depasturing with geese is a cure for them. Can any 

 of our correspondents inform us on this subject > 



Coltsfoot.— .4«ici«.-There is no off-hand way of eradicating 



it. Perseverance in pulling the flowers, and hoeing up the 



leaves as deeply as possible, will ultimately prove successful 

 in destroying It. * 



Food for Cows.-E. B«,wrf. -The Swedish Turnip is more 

 nourishing than the Mangold Wurzel, but it is apt to taint 

 the milk ; and therefore you had better give your cows the 

 latter. Apply wood-ashes as a manure for Turnips The 

 more vegetable the mould on which these roots are crown the 

 greater the effect the ashes will have. Guano is deficient in 

 alkali, and will be greatly improved by mixture with wood- 

 ashes. 8 cwt. of a mixture of equal weights of the two will 

 be more productive if spread equally over two acres than 

 4 cwt. of each separately on the same extent. 

 -Hints about Guano. — W. M. F.— Thanks for your published 

 account. Where were these experiments tried? and by 

 •whom ? 

 Implkmknts. — T. Baynton. — Thanks. Wc may publish your 

 information hereafter, when on the subject of Agricultural 

 Mechanics. 



Mavurk. — J. C. T. — Get all your manure into a heap, made as 

 hard as possible by the carts employed in bringing it together 

 wheeling over it every time, and cover it all up with 3 coat 

 of vegetable earth, about 4 inches thick. It may rr> > r e per- 

 fectly secure your heap if you mix this earth, ""hen wet, 

 with powdered gypsum before applying it. P>" all means 

 apply the manure to the land in autumn, »'id plough it in 

 deeply then, rather than keep it till >pring. 



Peach-sikots.— W. K. asks, Are the youn* shoots of Peaches 

 and Nectarines injurious to cattle ? P/obably ; for they yield 

 prussic acid in abundance. 



Professor Johnston.— G. T. R.— Thanks : you will see your 

 communication has been anticipated. 



Soot.— R. P.— It will not injure by keeping, but you will injure 

 it by mixing lime with it. The best way of using it, unless by 

 previous experiment you have ascertained that it is success- 

 ful alone, is to mix about 20 bushels per acre with as many 

 cubic yards of manure, and apply it in that way to Turnips, 

 Carrots, and Parsnips, about which you ask. It contains the 

 sulphate of ammonia, and therefore is a source of suitable 

 food to all crops ; and if a sufficient supply of that food is 



not afforded otherwi^ 't<* wli***tf«>» vrU1 Ue beneficial, 

 ui— .*., however, require other food besides that which is 



afforded by soot, and therefore it map be unsuccessful as a 



manure, unless accompanied by other kinds of vegetable 



food, such as are found in ordinary farm-yard manure. 



Stekpivo Seeds. — Dupe. — Was it our advice that you fol- 

 lowed ? We acted according to it ourselves, and the Wheat 

 so treated now looks blooming. 



Tares.— X. Z.— Sow them early in July, to be ready at the time 

 you specify. Use farmyard manure, or if you have it not, 

 apply 2 cwt. of guano and 3 or 4 bushels of old wood-ashes 

 mixed together, per acre. About Beans, see a Leading 

 Article in a March Number of the Gazette. 



Turnip-Fly. — New Subscriber. — Mr. Forehead Singer would 

 add to the obligation conferred on our readers by his letter 

 on this subject (page 234) if he gave us a description and 

 account of thecost of his machine for sowing the lime. 



Miscellaneous. — We have to apologise to three correspond- 

 ents for delaying answers to their questions. A. B. — If he 



looks again at the article to which he alludes by a " Farmer 

 and Valuer," he will see that any speculative statements are 

 carefully avoided; this was purposely done. Those he has 

 made are from practical experience in valuation. A Norfolk 

 farmer has ably dealt with the produce of the farm, but if it is 

 possible to come at the actual amount sold off by the out-going 

 tenant, the " Farmer and Valuer" will, at some future time, be 



most happy to supply it to the Editor. G. — We are sorry 



we have not got a Paper of the Number you ask for.

MARK-LANE, Moxday, May 13. 

 Having a good supply ot English Wheat from the near counties 

 this morning, Factors were unab!e to make any progress with 

 sales, until a reduction of Is. perqr. was submitted to upon the 

 fiuest qualities, and 25. upon secondary descriptions; notwith- 

 standing which, few stands were cleared at the close. Old 

 Foreign met a fair consumptive demand at last week's prices — 

 the new generally comes in too bad condition to admit of its 

 disposal. —English Barley must be written 15. cheaper. Foreign 

 was little inquired for, and held at our quotations.— Beans and 

 Peas are each 1$. dearer.— Oats are generally held for late 

 prices, but having a large supply, where vessels are coming on 

 demurrage a trifling reduction is necessarily made to clear them.

Friday, May 17. 

 The supplies of Wheat, both English and Foreign, during the 

 week have been large, and the trade is dull at Monday's 

 prices, with a limited extent of business.— Having a large 

 supply of Foreign Barley, and much of the Danish being in bad 

 condition, it sells slowly, and barely maintains its late value. — 

 Beans and Peas are unaltered.— The show of Oats is large, aud 

 quotations scarcely supported.
