N. B. The following description of some superior English 
Wheat sown in the month of October last, the product cf which 
will be for sale at the above Store, is given by a respectable 
F" dish farmer in the State of New-Jersey, who sowed about 
eleven bushels, a sample of which can yet he seen. u It is 
called the Uxbridge White Wheat, and is the most noted Wheat 
they have in England, it being of fine quality, always commands 
a high price, as the flour is used by the biscuit bakers in Lon¬ 
don; it is great for yielding, and puts out a much larger ear 
than any wheat I have seen in this country. I saw when in 
England, three years ago, on my brother's farm in one field, 
120 acres, that yielded 40 bushels and upwards to the acre. It. 
grows very strong, and is not liable to be laid by heavy rains. 
I will warrant it free from any soil whatever. I did not see in 
the eleven bushels, a particle but Wheat; and 1 have sown it 
on Clover seed, on purpose that there shall be nothing but 
Wheat; and I will put nothing in the barn with it, so as to put 
it beyond the possibility of a doubt of its having any thing in it 
or getting mixed with other Wheat, which through carelessness 
is often the case. I have grown a great deal of it myself in 
England, and know from experience that for yield and quality, 
there is no Wheat to compete with it. Its general weight is 
from 64 to 67 lbs. per bushel. It is smooth chaff, and easy to 
thrash, which is not always the case with smooth chaff Wheat.''

"jV/TANUFA CTURED and for sale by J. T.E. & C. RICH, Shore- 
-DT ham, Yt. Patented in 1841, much improved in 1843. 
These Machines are made wholly of iron and steel, very com¬ 
pact, efficient, simple in construction, and durable. They are 
so made, that a strong current of air is forced into the centre 
of the machine, and passing out sideways through cracks in the 
inner and outer cylinders, expels the dust as fast as created, 
and prevents it from mingling again with the grain, as it does 
in,&tber mills, so as to often blacken the kernels. 
They will clean from 15 to 25 bushels per hour. Warranted 
to suit upon 3 months trial, Shoreham, Feb 16, 1044. -St

discoveries in Agricultural Chemistry, adapted to the compre¬ 
hension of unscientific readers, by Cuthbert W. Johnson ; en¬ 
larged. improved and adapted to the United States, by Gover- 
neur Emerson, assisted by numerous scientific gentlemen. 
An excellent manual of agriculture—and we venture to say 
that there is not a farmer in the United States that cannot de¬ 
rive many useful hints and much valuable information from 
this Encyclopedia—Albany Cultivator. 
No farmer or planter who desires to be master of the science 
of his profession, should be without this work.—American 
Farmer. 
Its merits are far greater than we had before imagined, and 
we are fully convinced lhat such an amount of valuable knowl¬ 
edge for farmers can be found in no work in so cheap and con¬ 
venient a form. In fact, no farmer who pretends to be well in¬ 
formed in his profession should consent to be without it. As 
a book of reference, it is invaluable—we w.rnld not be without 
it for four times its cost.—New Genesee Farmer. , 
Should be in the library of every farmer.—American AgricuF 
turist. 
We heartily recommend it to our readers, and wish every 
farmer in North Carolina would take it and study it carefully.

A real treasure of practical information wherein the experi* 
ence of all ages and countries is carefully posted op to tht 
present day, and admirably arrant/ n for convenient reference

one relating to his profession so valuable.—Prairie Farmer.

POUDRETTE—A NEW ARTICLE. 
I MPROVEMENTS of such a nature have been made in the 
manufacture of Poudrette, by the Lodi Manufacturing Com¬ 
pany, near the City of New-Yoik, as to warrant the opinion 
that it is the cheapest and best Manure now known and in use. 
By experiments which have been made, it has been proved that 
its fructifying powers have been greatly increased, its operation 
upon vegetable matter quickened. It will obviate the effects ot 
severe drought, and will retain Its fertilizing qualities much 
longer than any Poudrette heretofore made. It will ripen Corn 
in 63 days fit for use. The price will be reduced the following 
season as follows: At the Factory it will be sold in bulk at the 
rate of 25 cents per bushel. It will be delivered at any wharf 
or place in the City of New-York, free of cartage and other ex¬ 
pense, at the rate of $2 for one barrel, which contains 4 bush¬ 
els ; $3,60 for 2 barrels ; $5 for 3 barrels, and $10,50 for 7 bar¬ 
rels, and at the -rate of $1,50 per barrel for any grealcr quan¬ 
tity. Persons wishing the article will please give notice in due 
season, as the orders will be fulfilled in the order of time re¬ 
ceived. The Company was incorporated in February, 1840, for 
30 years by the Legislature of New-Jersey. No liability to 
stockholders beyond their subecription of $100 per share. A 
few shares of what is called the “ Reserved Stock,” remain to 
be be subscribed for, which the Company guarantee shall pay 
a dividend of 50 bushels of Poudrette a year on each share, as 
authorized by the Charter. A pamphlet containing instructions 
for its use, and all other necessary information, is in prepara¬ 
tion, and will be sent gratis, to any person applying for it, post¬ 
paid. Agents have been or will be appointed in most of the im- 
portant places in the Northern and Eastern States, to whom 
persons may give orders. Where there is no agent, please di¬ 
rect to u The President of the Lodi Manufacturing Company, No. 
43 Liberty-street, New-York-'' and it shall receive immediate at« 
tention. Please refer to the Letter of Mr. Kentish, in the March 
number of the Cultivator. New-York, Feb. 15, 1844,
