I have found it very beneficial 
in regard to tlie grub. 
I had another field of 27 acres (ad- 
joining the one before-mentioned) 
wiiicli was sown with wheat; I in- 
tended to treat it in tlio same manner 
as S(X)n as sown, but in consequence 
of the weather being wet, it was im- 
possible to use either the common roll 
or the clod-crusher, I was therefore 
obliged to let it talie its chance, 
although it is more subject to the wireworm than any field I have on my farm, and has been so since I have 
known it- Tlie lield of wheat was on clover-ley; it was a very bad crop of clover; in fact, the wireworm 
had destroyed it for acres together, all over the field, in patches. I had very bad faith of the wheat ever 
being a crop, although it looked pretty well during the winter ; in the spring it was very evident the wire- 
worm had begun its ravages; it was more perceptible every day that I looked at it; and 1 think iu a sliort 
time lialf the field would have been destroyed; however the weather fortunately became dry, and I was enabled 
to use the clod crusher. I used it fust across the lands, and afterwards lengthways of them, and most for- 
tunately it stopped tlicir ravages, and there was no appearance of wireworm afterwards. I am now cutting 
llic wheat, and have a good bulk of straw, whatever the yield may be. It has amply repaid me for the cost 
of it in this very field the first year. In my humble opinion it is the best implement ever produced, and no 
farmer ought to be without one, either on light land or strong. 
REPORTS. 
I have experienced very good ef- 
fects on our light land iu Notting- 
hamshire. In rolling our wheat it 
ii-wers far better than the common 
Also upon barley affected with 
the wireworm, where it had a 
good effect.
