 Agriculture is the great centre around which all the other oc- 
 
 cupations of Society revolve — Trade, Commerce, Manufactures 
 
 —even the learned professions, owe their welfare to it— these 
 
 all stand together, like pillars in a cluster, the largest in the 
 
 centre, and that largest ia Agriculture. liet us remember that we

 or skill, neitliprdops it consume time ; while its exercise causes 
 every ihiug within its inncnoe to be ready for action, agreeable 
 |to the eye, enduring in existence, and fitted to produce the re-^ 
 quired results without failure. There is one thing against which' 
 practical farmers should he cautioned, and that is, never to suffer; 
 their minds to run wild while they are bestowing such care oni 
 their farms. Science and agriculture must go handin-hand. Sci- 
 ence will aid you much, and save you from much of that unremit- 
 jting physical exertion sometimes complained of. Free yourselves 
 from thcso prejudices against book -farming which many of you 
 'have read, and {)onder well what yon read, and it vvill not be 
 long before your calling, which has been too much neglected 
 from your own indifference, will rise to it.s true height. The 
 time when a particular job is to be done, may not be of much 
 importance to the manufacturer or mechanic, but to the farmer 
 jit is all important that he does almost every thing at the right 
 time as he has to depend upon natural agents for success.

 liTJUch better and heavier than that which is Me — the farmer who 
 
 gets his crops in well and in good season, is most «ure of a jjood „ 
 
 yield ; besides, if he gets his spring's work done early, he will 
 
 ;be most likely to do thf> whole work of the season in oood time, 
 
 iand will have time to do it well ; vvhile, if he L'ets behind time 
 
 in the spring, he will be mo.st likely to get behind time through 
 
 the whole season ; and beinjr drove with his work, will no! be 
 
 jlikely to do it well ; and if ho keeps an account of out goes and 
 
 in-comes, will be most likely to ffnd his [>rofils tnucli less than 
 
 ;they would have been, had his spring's work been done in 
 
 season. There are many other important matters to be looked 
 
 jto during the spring. Do yotir old meadows need harrowing 
 
 iand manuring and additional grass seed \ If so, now is the time 
 
 .to attend to it.

 !the mind. A woman never appears more truly in her sphere, 
 than when she divides her time hetween her domestic duties and 
 jthe culture of flowers. If our fair friends wish to have the fliis!)| 
 jof health on their cheeks, and the rich rose-leaf tint on their 
 lips, let thorn spend an hour or two each day in the open air, in- 
 'haling the fragrance, while employed in cultivating and training 
 jtheir flower;?. The cultivation of flowers, shrubs, and vines 
 is a remarkable and prominent feature in the landscape of Eng- 
 land, presenting throughout the season a succession of gay andl 
 brilliant ornaments. VVhen a man asks what is the use of shrubs 
 and plants, look U7ider his hat and see the length of his ears. 
 Every thing should not be measured by the standard 'of mere 
 utility and profit — the man who can see no good in life, but in 
 Ipecuniary gain, or in eating and drinking, is to be heartily pitied.

 good manure — the seed should be sown in drills — two feet 
 spaces between the drills will admit the use of a small harrow or 
 cultivator in cultivating the crop — the weeds must be killed asi 
 soon as they appear — -the scuffle-hoe is the best hand tool for this, 
 purpose, it may be run rapidly along the rid^^es, close to the! 
 pdants, aiul mny take out almost every weed in (he row without 
 doing any damage, the spaces between the rows may be chiefly 
 worked by a hairow or cultivator — the former is preferable on 
 llight lands — the plants should not be much thinned till they have

 way of the a). The common turnip is less nutritive than the

 but not ripe,— the workmen should he made to cut as low as 
 possible, especially if there abounds a fine bottom, thereby in-j 
 creasing the crop, and all the grass mqrwn in the forenoon; 
 should be spread before dihner. As soon as the external wet is^ 
 off, and it becomes partially wilted, put it into winrows with a 
 revolving horse-rake, and before the sun goes down intococks of'. 
 from 60 to 90 pounds ; what grass is cut in the latter part of the 
 day, r'^mains in the swarih till next day. More hay is lost byi 
 cutting too late than by cutting too early. When grass is quite; 
 ripe it should be exposed to the sun as little as possible afterj 
 it is mown, and be made into large cocks or removed immediate-i 
 ly into the barn, that by a steaming process the dry stalks may! 
 become more valuable. Don't suffer your revolving hay rake,' 
 &c., to lie out in the fields exposed to the weather. I

 only labour is uidoading each raketui oF hay, by a alight lifting of 
 the Imndles, which causes the teeth to make a semi-revolution. 
 and drop the load without stopping. 
 
 It may be laid down as a standing rule, and aa a guide to 
 direct onr exertions, that all good, farming, the whole of thatj 
 l)rocess by wluch bad land is to be converted into good, or landj! 
 naturally good and productive is to be continued in that state,! 
 is comprised in the three following operations of husbandry : — t 
 I..T0 carry off all stagnant and superAtious water by means of| 
 judicious draining. 2. To return through the medium of m^anwreJ 
 tlie strength and fertility which has been extracted from the laftd^j 
 I by cropping. 3. To eradicate all noxious weeds, that the »tr«ngt?i; 
 of the manure may be thrown into the crops and not intctlve weeds!

 should be laid on the land in small heaps, about four paces apart* 
 they can then be spread with more ease and expedition by 
 makini^ more heaps of a load, and placing them near together 
 Of all the crops that are raised none are of so much importance 
 to the fariner as the corn plant, not only foi* its valuable grain, 
 ibut it6 leaves, husks, and stalks for fodder and manure. 
 
 1 Indian Corn is undoubtedly an American plant, though we 
 have no positive knowledge in regard to ite original habitat. 
 VVe are not aware that it has ever been found growing in a wild 
 slate ^ but as its s}:ontaneous production could only take place | 
 in a region not suhject to frost, it has been reasonably con 
 ,.jectured thal.it is a native of the tropics — ^what changes ihe plant' 
 >has undergone by cultivation it is impoestble to determine.

 to consider whether most of (heir work cannot be done with one 
 pair ol cattle, and, if two pair are to be used would it not be 
 better to cut Ihe first furrow of less depth, and apply the power 
 of the second pan* to a subsoil plough to follow directly after. 
 If we do not mistake the signs of the times, our modea of] 
 preparing laml for culture will ere long be essentially modified 
 by the use of the subfsoil plough. Great improvement has already 
 heen made in this branch of farming, but still not one half of the 
 land is well ploughed. While it is admitted that every man 
 can learn to plough well, it is by no means clear that all do thus 
 perform this branch of farm labour. Clayey soils, which have 
 been well drained, may be greatly improved by fall ploughing, 
 if it is done in the right way.

 knowledge. Many young men are made discontented with the 
 life of a farmer, and are perhaps, driven *o habits of irregularity, 
 from the want of opportunities for cultivating their minds. 
 Every effort should therefore be made to render home happy and 
 pleasant — books and periodicals, suited to the ages and capacities 
 of both sexes should be provioed, such as will not only convey 
 instruction in relation to the business affairs of life, but of a 
 character also that will tend to improve the morals and elevate 
 the higher sentiments. The farmer should also apply bnnself to 
 acquiring information as to the state and condition of agriculture, 
 and he cannot effect the object better than by subscribing for a 
 good Agricultural Paper. The Cultivator, published at 
 Albany, ^'for the improvement of the mind and thz ao*/," h .vill 
 tiud to be the best ; and from it he can note the practices of 
 others, and carefully compare them with his own.

 health, that delays are often found to be most disastrous. The 
 lonly time to Insure is while health is enjoyed.

 THE CULTIVATOR, 
 
 PUBLISHED MONTHLY, 
 
 DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF 
 
 THE FARMER, THE GARDENER, AND THE FRUIT-GROWER, 
 
 ILLUSTRATED WITH NUMEROUS ENGRAVINGS. 
 
 The Cultivator will enter upon its fevenleenlli volume, (the seventh' 
 of the '* new series,") on the 1st of Jan., 1850. For a period ofsixieen ■ 
 years, it has enjoyed a circulation, and exerted an influence, not exceeded, '■ 
 it is believed, by any other journal, Tliat its inteiest and usefulness have , 
 ^been sustained from year to year, there is the most abundant evidence in . 
 its large sales, notwithstanding the multiplicity of agricultural journids' 
 'which have come into existence within the past few years. It will be the 
 aim of the Publisher to render it for the future, not only worthy of the j 
 support of the rural populntion, but absolutely necessary to all vvlu)' 
 |Would keep themselves well informed as to the progress of agriculturwl 
 improvement, both at home and abroad. Keeping steadily in view the 
 great object for which The Cultivator was established, — " To lm-\ 
 prove the Soil and the Mind,''* — no effort will be spared to fill its pages 
 |Wilhsuch matter as is best adapted to call into action the mental and 
 physical ener;^ies of its readers. — to aw.iken inquiry as to the best and 
 |mo3t piofitable methods of farming, and to incite to efforts to carry them ' 
 into effect. 
 
 Its object will be also to elucidate and enforce the advantages of nn 
 Improved System of Husbandry, by ex|)liiiiiing the principles on which' 
 it is founded, and by exhibiting the p'actice by which it can be carried 
 ■into successful operation — to show the farmer that if he would thrive ] 
 in his business, he must ado[)t a Rotation of Crops best calculated for \\\> 
 'soils — to convince him of the value of Manure, and to point out the va- ' 
 yious ways in which its amount may be greatly increa-ed, and to what 
 crops and in what manner different substances may be n ost advantageous- . 
 ly applied — to convince him, that instead of rendering his land poorer and; 
 his crops lighter from year to year, he mi^iht and ought to pursue such a ' 
 course as would increase the fertility of his farm and the amount of its ' 
 products each succeeding year, thus rendering its cultivaiion far more 
 profitable, as well as infinitely more sati*,factory to an intelligent mind. , 
 
 Particular attention is paid to l^ural Architecture, and numerous De-\ 
 signs oi Farm Buildings, Gates, Fences, and Ornamfntal Strtictiiref^yi 
 jis and will be given — to the department allotted to '■ The Garden crwtii 
 the Orchard," which will be conducted bv Jahn J. Thomas, well- ; 
 known as the author of the *' Fruit Culturist," and a practical Horlicnl-l 
 
 i * I 
 
 turist of great skill — to " JJomestic and Rural Economy,'* and to the' 
 1*' Diseases of Animals,*' a subject of increj.i^ing interest to farmers. [' 
 
 The first series of " the Cui.ivalor," consists of Ten volumes 
 quarto, commencing in 1834 and terminating in 1843, The first six oi^j 
 jthese volumes contain the rich fruits of the labour, experiments and ma-j 
 tured experience of Jud^e Buel. At the time ofhisdecea.se it passed into! 
 the hands of the Proprietor and Editors of the Gennesee Farmer, with; 
 which publication it was united, and by whom it has since been conducted.;; 
 A new series was comtmenced in 1844 and the form changed from Quartol 
 to Octavo ; of this series, four volumes are now completed, and the fifth, 
 in course of publication. 
 
 The whole series, or such volumes as may be vanted to complete sets 
 can be supplied and the work continued as published, by
