HOW TO GET GOOD CROPS. : From an American circular letter conlaming directions for the, treatment of wheat to prevent and kill smut and valu--v ablet suggestions regarding selections of I ? seed, we extract the following “ Now a few words in regard to your seed wheat. You will often bear the farmers say they ‘ cannot raise wheat any longer, 1 ‘the land is played.cut,’ etc. , Now this,is no,t the case. Your seed has ■* plkyed ana nothing else. Your lands produce wheat for hundreds of years, , game as j t jj a 8 j| one j n E n gi anc | an d France,.if you will take the same care of as of your seed corn. Sow thelarge, plump berries; and you will never complain of your land being played out for wheat raising. Grade your wheat and throw aside all the small and , imperfect berries. Sow the large, plump ones, and continue to do this every c year,, and you will be astonished at the result. Th s s grading can be dene by , running the wheat over a fanning - mill a number of times, and the result will be if you continue to, do this every year, that y .your land will produce five or ten more to the acre, and you will always the highest price in the market for your wheat. ‘ Like begets like.’ If - you breed your, pigs from the tail end of the litwyou will get runts, but you do not like that. You select the best of the •i Titter for breeding, and ln that way you breed up. .If you select the poorest you breed down, and your original stock is run out: It will be the same with your cbm . and your wheat, or any Others «p|pd uce The same hatarefSlaw ‘that gbreriis. the animals ' governs the vegetable kingdom, and there Si) do t disputing )R. uln jwg,ard to seed whewjt, some slick talker wilf come round with 'some very fine looking seed for sale at about ten times ybu couldiget for that in your own bins, and, in ninety-nine cases in t hundred, not any better, if as good., ..-They girb itiipme new-fangled name and tell you it wil.Lproduce forty bushels per r jit is an .old, story.. You have ’fiet»l < »p'd)irea^i.fe often • You are tempted t-n hny'» few ‘bushels. You prepare the I , ; apd ;spw - in. the beet manner *%Jpswibje;; Slid; perhaps, get a: good crop sod think you-have “struck it rich,” , , Hid you ever know it to pun out the same the second or’third year 1 Probably not. j Thie : Hlgb-priced scad you have purchased wssgrsded sp from some.of the common amities of j»heat;-- jtndiif ypu will do the name .thing—-grade your wheat,—you will, ifjou wish, be in the market with this hew vsristy of seed wheat, and the ocenpatian of those slick fellows will be gone. Try this method of grading your aeedwheat for a few years. It will only * cost you a little time. Yon will get a 0. better result. tbs second than the first year, and still better the third year. If 31 .you put in this year fifty acres of wheat, , one dsy spent in grading your wheat(and that will do it) will bo worth one hundred dollars to you this year. The DiQieeSa&aod ihird ’yearaTt - will ,be worth a good deal more. Of course there are p jSqusons when wheat crops and corn crops 1 srs ’failures. You cannot control the weather.
