selling at forty cents, corn twenty-three

however, by treating cattle as they' are

- Com Planting Drills TS ' lilllS. .
Previous to the year '56, we followed
the good old plan or planting corn in niua,
We then became possessed with the de-
mon of innovation, and thought we should
like to try the drill. For that purpose "we
hired one of a neighbor, and the experi-
rnent was so far successful as te induce us
to.purchase one for ourselves for 18o7
price SI 5. ' 1 1 '.'
Our plan is to manure and", plow our
m-ound in the fall 'By so doing", we find
j When the corn is well up, -.we give the
whole a thorough harrowing, thereby a-
- ger pi killing it. ne- xnea me expen-
rnent last year, and for a few days were
airam we nau uestroy:u uur corn trujj
harrowing, but there was a glorious resur-
rection," which justifies us in trying ; it
again., . Afterwards, ns the weeds spring
up, we follow first lightly with the culti-
vator, so that we do not coyer the young
plant, and then with me hoe j thinning out
the stalks to about twelve ' Inches apart,
subsequently with the shovel, plow, going
deep and giving the soil a thorough pulver:
"izing, except the last dressing which takes
place when the corn is tall enough to con-
ceal both man and hcrse; we. then'go
hghtly with the cultivator m oraer not
s -a . a r a w i a. a a
destroy the fibres of the roots. We at-
I tach much importance to this last late
- dressing. The following are "the results
of our experiments:
