 SlurrefPs Hopetoun, and Morton's Red-Straw White, which have 



been grown on

pipe be used, one-third more, if 2-inch pipe, as much 



more. 



The above quant'tirs are rough estimates, which may be va- 

 ried by enlarging or contracting the fire, or by regulating the 

 fire door. It is possible to heat a much larger quantity of pipe 

 with the boiler, but it would be done at great loss of fuel. The 

 above proportions can be generally relied on as a near approxi 

 mat ion to what is correct.

:ng two sheaves of these Wheats were exhibited outside (notice 



not having: been given in time for their admission inside), where 



they produced much excitement, nnd 6rf. per ear w is offered for 



them. Last year, in the same field, side by side, the Piper's 



Thick set grew eight bushels and a half, and the C lne White- 



chaff Red five bushels and a half more per acre than the rm 



prolific Wheat grown in the neighbnu'hood. La»* oi'umn 



J. D. P. measured a quarter of an acre off his « m, and dibbled 



the Thick-set in rows a foot apart, a^<* one bushel per acre ; 



and though the plant was part^ny destr yed by the slug in the 



winter, and a good sp«* ,Klil >ff of self-sown Potatoes were left 



to grow, still Hie j leld wa^ 14 bushels and a half, being equal 



to 14 ss>«*s and 2 bushels per acre. One person this year grew 



to sacks and 2 bushels, another 14 «acks and another 13 sacks 



per acre. One parcel weighed 643 lbs. per bushel. This is, 



perhaps, the stiffest-strawed Wheat in England, and is adapted 



for strong or hollow bottom ground, and is n »t likely to get 



laid. J. P. P. will send to London, or to any place within ten 



miles of Colne, carnage free, and he will be glad to receive a 



post office order, or reference to some house in London for the 



money, with the order for the Wheat. When it is all sold, 



J. D. P. promises to inform the Public, by an advertisement in 



this Paper; but if h* should get any po«t. n ffice orders after t i* 



il! sold, he will return them. The price is regulated according 



to the yield. Thick-set, 13*. per bushel; Colne Whifechaff

 expressly for Wheat crops : it abounds in all the ingredients that

persons who found the Foreign Guano a failure last season t 

 give his a trial, it fa g murh more powerful, and free from 

 adulteration, so justly complained of in the Foreign by Agricul-

 Kentish Town, London, Aug. 15. 1*44.- This is to certify that 

 we have subjected Brain's Guano to a most patient and rigo- 

 rous analysis, and find it contains all the necessary constituent - 

 of a good manure, and is well calculated to give fertility to a 

 soil which is either naturally barren, or has been exhausted by 

 over-cropping:, by Supplying the land with tho^e subs'anc* 

 which are absolutely requisite to a healthy vegetation : (it is 

 not adulterated, and can always be depended on, being of uni-

Notwithstanding the extrrme drought of tV.e last spring and 

 summer, the results of the experiments, in very many instances, 

 have been surprising, averaging a saving on seed, in the first 

 instance, of 35. per acre, and yielding a produce of 20 percent. 

 additional in straw, and 40 per cent, in grain. Had 'he season 

 been more moist the n suit would have been a' least double.
