[Nov. 2, 



ground, it you C»o do ic conveniently ; this will pre at 

 the Boutb-west wind from breaking into the garden. Ha 

 ing made choi.e of a plot of the ground containing eleven 

 hills square, place the bin upon the hill which is in the 

 centre, having five hills on each side ; and when these 

 hills are picked, remove the bin into another piece of 

 ground of the same extent, and so proceed till the whole 

 Hop-ground is finished. When the poles are drawn up 

 to be picked, take care not to cut the bines too near ti 

 hills, especially when the hops are green, because it will 

 make the sap to flow excessively. The Hops must be 

 picked very clean, i e. 9 free from leaves and * ks ; and, 

 as there shall be occasion, two or three times in a day, 

 the bin must be emptied into a If p-bag made of coarse 

 linen cloth, and carried immediately to the 08ft or kiln 

 to be dried ; for if they should be long iu the bin 

 or bag, they will be apt to heat and be disc, loured. 

 If the weather be hot, there should be no more poIe3 

 drawn than can be picked in an hour, and they 

 should be gathered in fair weather, if possible, 

 and when the Hops are dry ; this will save some expense 

 in firing, and preserve their colour better when they are 

 dried. The crop being thus bestowed, take care of the 

 poles for another year, which are best to be laid up in a 

 shed, having first stripped off the haulm from them ; but 

 if you have not that conveniency, set up three poles in 

 the form of a triangle, or six poles (as you please), wide 

 at bottom ; and having set them into the ground, with 

 an iron picker, and bound them together at the top, set 

 the rest of your poles about them ; and being thus dis- 

 posed, none but those on the outside will be subject to 

 the injuries of the weather, for all the inner poles will be 

 kept dry, unless at the top ; whereas, if they were on the 

 ground, they would receive more damage in a fortnight 

 than by standing all the rest of the year. The best 

 method of drying Hops is with charcoal, on an oast or 

 kiln, covered with hair-cloth, of the same form and 

 fashion that is used for drying malt. There is no need 

 of particular directions for making these, as every car- 

 penter and bricklayer in those countries where Hops 

 grow, or malt is made, knows bow to build them. The kiln 

 ought to be square, and may be of 10, 12, 11, or 10 feet 

 at the top, where the Hops are laid, as the plantation 

 requires and room will allow. There ought to be a due 

 proportion between the height and breadth of the kiln and 

 the begueis of the sieddle where the fire is kept ; viz , if 

 the kiln be 12 feet square on the top, it ought to be 9 feet 

 high from the fire, and the steddle ought to be G£ feet 

 square, and so proportionable in other dimensions. The 



Hops must be spread even upon the oast, a foot thick or 



more, if the depth of the curb will allow it ; but care 



must be taken not to overload the oast if the Hops be 



green or wet. The oast ought to be first warmed with, a 



lire before the Hops are laid on, and then an even steady 



■fire must be kept under them ; it must not be too fierce 



at first, lest it scorch the Hops, nor must it be suffered 



to sink or slacken, but rather be increased, till the Hops 



be nearly diied, lest the moisture or sweat which the fire 



has raised fall back and discolour them. When they 



have lain about nine hours tuey must be turned, and in 



two or three hours more they may be taken off the oast. 



It may be known when they are well dried by the brit- 



tleness of the stalks and the easy falling off of the Hop- 

 leaves. It is found by experience that the turning of 



Hops, though it be after the most easy and best manner, 



is not only an injury to them, but also a waste of fuel 



and time, because they require as much fuel and as long 



a time to dry a email quantity, by turning them, as a 



large one. Now this may be prevented by having a 

 •cover (to be let down and raised at pleasure) to the 



upper bed whereon the Hops lie. This cover may be 



also tinned, by nailing single tin plates over the face of 



it ; so that when the hops begin to dry and are ready to 



burn, i. e., when the greatest part of their moisture is 



evaporated, then the cover may be let down within a foot 



or less of the Hops (like a reverberatory), which will 



reflect the heat upon them, so that the top will soon be 



as dry as the lowermost, and every Hop be equally dried. 

 As soon as the Hops are ta^en off the kiln, lay them 



in a room for three or four weeks to cool, and 



toughen; for if they are bagged immediately they will 



powder, but if they lie a while (and the longer they lie 



the better, provided they be covered close with blankets 

 to secure them from the air) they may be bagged with 



more safety, not being liable to be broken to powder in 



treading ; and the harder they are trodden the better 



they will keep. The common method of baggirjg is as 



follows : — Have a hole made in an upper floor, either 



round or square, large enough to receive a Hop-bag, 



which consists of four and a half ells of ell-wide cloth, 



and also contains ordinarily two hundred and a half of 



Hops; then tie a handful of Hops in each lower corner 



of the bag to serve as handles to it ; and then fasten the 



mo-ith of the bag so placed that the hoop may rest up m 



=the edges of the hole. Then he that is to tread the 



Hops down into the bag, treads the Hops on every side, 



another person continually putting them in as he treads 



them, till the bag is full ; when being well tilled and 



trodden, they unrip the fastening of the bag to the 



hoops, let it down, and close up the mouth of the bag, 



tying up a handful of Hops in each corner, as was done 



in the lower part. Hops being thus packed, it they 



have been well" dried, and laid up In a dry place, will 



keep good several years ; but care must be taken that 



they be not spoiled by the mice making their nests in *^iMJftwJ£»iifc| !nXw C *? rl ^i?|.

quire wlphuric acid and li but that it also operates 



a means of fixing and retaining the ammonia, with 



which the rain is impregnated, which would otherwise 



aporate before the plant could seize upon it. In our 



concern,* where we have a great number of horses, we 



use gvpsum in our stables, strewing it on the floor, which 



arrests the ammonia as it is formed, and thereby not 



only helps to preserve a very valuable fertiliser, but also 



renders the stables much more wholesome for the horses. 



1 have also, as an experiment, hung up in the stables a 



plate containing diluted sulphuric acid, and have observed 



small crystals of sulphate of ammonia formed at the 



edges of the plate, from the acid combining with the 



ammonia floating in the air in a gaseous state. If, in 



the hot stables that are sometimes met with at inns, 



where the air is *o charged with ammoniac U vapours, 



that when you enter your eyes are affected, a little gypsum 



were strewed on the floor every day, or trays containing 



inlpbnrie or muriatic acid were suspended, all that ot- 



fensive smell would be done away, and the stable be much 



more healthy for its inhabitants.— On the Use of Gypsum,

Notices to Correspondents. 



Aonici/LTi/RAL Rbport of Norfolk.— S. D. E.—lt is certainly 

 a useful book; and would probably be beneficially employed as 



you propose. . 



Bosks.-H. A. S.-The present is the best time to apply bone- 

 dust to Grass land. Apply 16 to 20 bushels per acre.— We never 



knew a horse refuse Lucerne. 

 Cow*.— Chepstow Subtcriber.—ln our experience of oilcake as 

 food for sheep, the addition of 1 lb. diminished the consumption 

 of Swedi s from 6 to 8 lbs. ; it is probable that 4 to 6 lbs. given 

 daily to a cow would diminish the quantity of the other iood given 



to it to three-quarters its former amount ; at the same time en- 

 riching the milk afforded. The amount of cake may be given 

 broken in small pieces bv the ordinary cake- crusher, to the 

 cows confined in sheds. There does not exist, in the case of the 

 cow or sheep, the same necessity for finely reducing their food, 

 that there is in the case of the hone and of others which do not 

 chew the cud. 



Flax Sbkd.— An Old Grazier. -Several articles on Flax-seed as 

 food, by Mr. Sproule, which have lately appeared in our 

 columns, will give you a good deal of information. The com- 

 pound is prepared on the farm. 



Food for Shkkp.— Subscriber.— Oil-cake broken in small pieces 

 should be given to them in a trough to the amount of from 12 to 

 Ifi ozs. »-piece each day. Oil-cake and hay will fatten sheep; 

 they will need water. 



Guano.— Dublin.— This and all other manures, whose value 

 depends partly on soluble ingredients, is best applied in spring 

 —say early in April. 



llovs.—Humutus. Bradford.— The male plants are useless. In 

 the hope of eliciting an account of the Hop-cultivation of Kent 

 and Sussex we shall insert your letter next week. 



Mr. Warn its' Box**.— Subscriber.— Perhaps next week. 



Pigs.— Subscriber.— The water in which Swedes, &c, have been 



boiled is not injurious. 



Potato Culture.— J. L.— "You may a3 well dig in tne manure 

 now ■, you may safely take your second crop of Potatoes. 



Poultry.— O'igiual Subscriber. — We never noticed the fact to 

 which you allude, and know not how to explain it. 



Stall-peeping.— H. S. T.— The heat and itching of the skin is 

 an almost constant attendant on high feeding, particularly if 

 Bean meal (in which nitrogenised elements abound) forms a 

 large portion of 'he diet. It may be moderated very much by 

 giving occasionally the following powder in the food : — Super- 

 tartrate of potash, 1 oz. ; Nitrate of pota*h, 6 drs. ; Flowers of 

 sulphur, 4 drs. If the itching is excessive, change and mode- 

 rate the food.— For destroying the vermin of store cattle em- 

 ploy the following:— Sulphur vivium, 4 oz. ; Oil of tar, 4 oz. ; 

 Whale oil, 1 pint; to be gradually mixed together. Some- 

 times the two latter ingredients alone will prove effectual.—

Wheat.—//. Do wling.— Wheat often, indeed generally, sends out 

 roots from the first joint in the straw, but seldom in so early a 



stage of its growth as in your specimen. T. Paul. — Sow 



guano at the rate of 2 cwt. per acre, and nitrate of soda at the 

 rate of 1 cwt. per acre, mixed together, broadcast ; sow on a wet 

 day in April over your young Wheat : see above — Guano. Use 

 the fine bone dust, not the half-inch kind.

COVENT GAB DEN, Nov. 2.— The market has been well sun- 

 plied during the past week, but the demand has been comuara 

 tively trifling; trade in general is dull. Amongst Pine-apnles 

 there are some good fruit which are offered at last week's prices 

 Little variation has taken place m the prices of Grapes- cood 

 samples of Black Hamburgh bring about 4*. per lb., and the best 

 foreign Grapes are selling at about Is. 6d. per lb. The principal 

 dessert Pears are the Marie Louise and Louise Bonne ; these a- 

 well as other varieties have not varied in prices since our last Re- 

 port. Apples are also offered at nearly the same prices as quoted 

 last week. A few specimens of Coe's Fine Late Red and other 

 Plums are still in the market, but they are very scarce. Dam- 

 sons are almost over. Nuts of all kinds are sufficient for* the de" 

 njand; good Walnuts bring about 5s. per bushel. Quinces are" 

 plentiful. The prices of most kinds of vegetables remain nearly 

 the same as last week. Broccoli is not quite so plentiful. Cauli- 

 flowers are good and sufficient lor the demand ; as are also Cab- 

 bages, Savoys, Brussels Sprouts, and other winter greens. We 

 noticed some fine samples of French Beans, which are selling at 

 nearly the same prices as last week. Abundance of Turnips and 

 Carrots are offered ; and Celery of good quality continues to be 

 well supplied. A few Tomatoes may still be obtained; they are 

 a little cheaper. Endive, Lettuces, and other salading are offered 

 at nearly the same prices as last week. Among Cut Flowers we 

 noticed Bignonia venusta, Combretumpurpureura, Allamanda ca- 

 thartica, Kondeletia speciosa, Double Chinese Primrose, Lesche- 

 naultia formosa, Epiphyllum truncatum, Gloxinias, Heaths, Ama- 

 ryllises, Heliotropes, Neapolitan Violets, Cinerarias, Pelargoniums 

 Verbenas, Camellias, Picotees, and Roses. '

 Our supply of Blasts to day is very lar#e, and much of it of inferior qua- 

 lity. It is difficult to make 4s of anything; yet, the best beef not being very 

 plentiful, tha' price is obtained in several places. Many middling ones nre 

 left unsold. There are a few more Mieep, but the best qualities are still 

 readilv sold at about 4s per 8 lbs. Veal trade is heavy ; the best Calves are, 

 with difficulty, disposed of at about 4s 2d per 8lbs. Poik-trade is steady. 



Friday, Nov. 1. 



We have more Beasts to-day than are required for the trade; the demand 

 beinij very limited. A few of the best Beasts made 4s per 8 lbs., but 3s ]od is 

 the more general price. Short Horns about 3s 8d, with some at 3s lod ; second 

 quality 2s 8d to 3s fid. Sheep trade is very heavy; the demand on Friday, 

 this time of the year, being ffenorallj small, we are overdone in quantity. 

 The dead-trade nns also been very bad all the week. The best Downs, &c. 

 realise nearly 4s, and Lonir wools 3s lod per 8 lbs. Ewes, &c. 3s to 3s 6i. It 

 is with difficulty the best Calves make 4s per 8 lbs. Pork-trade remains about 

 the same.

1st consequence of the arrivals being larpe at the time you received our 

 last report, and the supply being also liberal during the past week, these 

 together have been more than *qual to the demand, which has caused a great 

 depr»-s«i**n in our Markets, and a considerable reduction in the prices. The 

 best samples of York, Scotch, and Devon?, moved off at the annexed quota*

 were a complete drug.

MARK-LANE, Monday, Oct. 28. 

 Tub supply of Wheat from Essex, Ken , and Suffolk was mo- 

 derate this morniug, and sold readily at the prices of last week ; 

 in Foreign there was little doing, and its value remains un- 

 altered. Having: a small attendance of the Barley buyers, in 

 consequence of the Queen's visit to the City, this article sold 

 slowly at our late quotations. Beans and Peas of all descrip- 

 tions are fully as dear. Notwithstanding the large arrival of 

 Oats, they met a tolerably active sale, and we observe no alter- 

 ation in their value.

of business limited. In Wheat either English or y ore ^° fr ,^ 

 observe no alteration. The best qualities of English MamiiK 

 Barley support their late value, but having a large arrival ,w
