of winter. The two prime objects of these
operations are, first, to bury any weeds
growing in the stubble that would other-
wise go to seed; and almond, to encourage
germinati3�f seeds lying in the ground,
and whioh are then destroyed either by
the harrowing whioh comes later, or by
the late ploughing before winter. In the
acoompliehment of these two objects a
third is realized, although it may not be
sought. Soil . decomposition• is promoted
through the " weathering" of the exposed
surfaces, and inert plant food is thus un-
locked and made valuable for nee by the
next year's orop.
This mode of cultivation is pertain
destruotion to the Crop of weeds growing
upon the soil at the olose of harvest ; that
is, when .the work is thoroughly done.
Ragweed, the sow thistle -one of the most
difficult of weeds to eradicate -the Canada
thistle, burdocks and' various kinds of
000kle, all of whioh will be found growing
in the stubbies where they exist, will thus
be bnrie No other means . of destroying
ragweed d 000kle are so effioient for the
outlay.
The first ploughing not only buries the
weede mentioned with many others, whioh
.:hough• lees. tronbleeome should he given no
quarter, but it brings many seeds that may
be lying ' dormant in -111011114110 near thea
surface that they will germinate. The
harrowing whioh follows in - due time
destroys these, after whioh other seeds

late ploughing. By this simple mode of
Cultivation vast quantities of the seeds of
such plants as wild oats, wild flax, the'Wild
pea, wild mustard and pigeon weed will be
destroyed, for, unless in the case of the
wild pea and wild ninatard, these naturally
put forth the effort to grow in autumn.
There is ample scope for the exercise of
good judgment se to the preoiee nature of.
the first ploughing, dependent upon,the
.kinde of weeds that may be growing, and
the nature and condition of the laud.
Where weeds are already growing it is
important that they should all be put oat
of sight. This the gang -plough will not do
effectively as at present used. It the gang -
plough is to be need much for this purpose,
the mannfaotritrers will have to put some
form of a skimmer upon them to make the
burial of the weeds complete. The two -
furrow plough does better work than the
ordinary gang -plough, but it also should
have a Skimmer. For -destroying thistles
the single plough with broad share whioh
outs off all the thistles is beet. It also
•.should be used with a skimmer,and
the ploughing should be shallow so se
not to bring up the horizontal
roote near the surface, for when so placed
they aro sure to grow if the weather is
damp. The first .ploughing in any vase
should be shallow, se it is easily done, and
answers the purpose quite ae well aa deep
' ploughing.
In some seotione the farmers have been
practising autumn cultivation for years, in
others it has never been attempted. It is
scarcely necessary to add that where au-
tumn cultivation has not been introduced
weeds abound, and crops lees remunerative
are harvested. In sections where soils are
naturally stiff it is lees essential, for weeds do
not grow there so readily, but it w ill prove
of much advantage in any soil.
Autumn cultivation is our practice, of
coaree, at this farm, and so beneficial are
the results that we cannot for a moment
think of doing without it. Bat we are not
making much use of the gang plough ; we
are using the two -furrow plough instead.

Another favorite triok of hers is to lie on

and nee the heel of her foot as a pillow for

common feats for her.
One day she palled on Dr. Dwight, the
famone Philadelphia physician, whose
astonishment at her antics knew no

I am aware there are diffioulties in the
way of autumn cultivation. The work to
be most effective should be done at once
after harvest. There is, oftentimes, no
labor to be spared for this purpose. The
teams are employed with the harvest and
Bo cannot be spared to plough. The
remedy is plain, though it may be very
difficult of application. Its, is this : i Hire
