AGRICULTURAL.
C'rrtulii ItuN't in running.
A curiTspoiulcnt of the Ma.v.acliti.setts
Plowman gives in n ncont number of that
paper, the following short, yh'm nutl
practical rules:
1st. Collect nuJ fcc-curi' fr 'I,.' wast
in"; infliio ncos of the sun and lam (either
in a cellar or under s-heils,) all the ma
nure possible.
2. Make a judicious and liberal appli
cation of it to the Mil you would cultivate
according to the nutlity ;f it, and of the
crop to be raised from it.
3. Cultivate no more round than you
can attend to in die best time and manner.
4. Keep no more Mock on your farm
than you can have in a thriving condition;
and in order for this, pay attention to the
root culture, and especially be particular
to secure the hay crop in Uio proper sea
son and in the best manner, so that its en
riching properties may be retained
. Set out no more fresh fruit trees
than you can give ample room, and keep
in cultivated grounds well enriched. Rear
your own trees, or otherwise procure them
of none but experienced or nvnnsible
nurseryman. (Jet the best rind most
thrifty trees, not even accepting as a ir if t
rvy of lb refuse ones, riant them out
with the greatest care, so that they may
not be retarded in their growth. Shape
their tops from ji-ir to year as they may
nead by pruning. These rules, of course
admit of much uiup'itkution, as, for instance
that in regard to the cultivation of the
crop, it implies deep and clean vulture,
frequent stirring of the ground in the
right season.
But I am aware, brother farmers, you
will say these are but common place re
mark, no new truths we knew them all
before this. Very well, let me tell you,
truths pertaining to agriculture, like moral
truths, need frequent inculcation. And
here I will reuture to at'.irm that not one
fanner in ten follows so closely these rules
as hi might. Therefore, be iersv.aded
to try them carefully for a period of five
years, and I xvill venture to predict that
you will be greatly benefitted and be ready
to tbank the writer for his suggestions.

Many persons cotn'laiu that their hens
will not lay, and that notwithstanding their
assiduity in furnishing them with all the
articles ordinarily recommended to ensure
fecundity, the eirtrs they produce will not
" half pay the expenses." Now, we pre
sume their is something lacking, or the
fowls would certainly not run their owners
in debt. It is not generally understood,
even by those who profess to be most
deeply versed in the mysteries of " hen
olorjy," that the hen, being omnivorous,
requires, to ensure fecundity, a very libe
ral allowance of meat. When enjoying
her liberty in the fields, pastures, or door
yards, the principal part of her sustenance
is derived from insects, worms, &.r. She
partakes but sparingly tit such times of
grain, and often when that nrticle is sup
plied, leaves it for the more inviting food
which nature supplies her with, in her
favorite haunts.
Now, if vu confine her where the natu
ral propensity for this description of food
cannot be gratified, even though we sup
ply the best of grain, and in abundance,
she will cease to lay. The privation af
fects her health, and will necessarily be
tin nu l profit until the tieliciem y is
supplied.
When fresh meat or fresh fish cannot
be supplied, the common scraps of the
butcher, which are hard and compact, and
can be kept any length of time, answer
all the desired purpose. New J'ngland
