A correspondent of The .A;
son `Gina � expresseschi-
m ion the. opi ion
that" the major `part of the �'V' ter
'wheat in Kansas is frozen. ort." He
•s loss to the e
hinisel suffers *tent ofI.
38 acres, which he will replyntwith
spring wheat as soon as the ground
is dry -enough to drill it in.
. In reply to a =.question about
seed corn, The Western Rural offers
'this bit of counsel, which is good
everywhere and always : We ad-
-vise youto stick to that which you
know to be- good; in preference to
that of which you know nothing,
except that you can experiment :on
a- moderate scale with newly -invent-
ed varieties."
- An experience of 30 ; years in
rearing and feeding swine has con-
vinced a Western Farmer . corres-
pondent
orres-po iident that whole corn- is better
for pigs than raw meal in any shape.
Their little sharp teeth' seem- to be
just fitted by nature to crush and
-grind down this food in a proper
manner for digestion. •
A plain-spoken correspondent
of The Prairie Farmer , who has
f bean swindled by this trink,' cau-
tions his contemporaries to beware
of the dark ways, of unprincipled
teen who, not content with enormous
profits, seek to defraud the honest
portion of mankind by ,selling sand,
;nixed with clover -seed at $6, $8,
or $12 per bushel-, as the' price may
be. -
and it might not be necessary on a
farm, if it were as highly enriched in
the same way. A field has. been
pointed out`to us several tithes in one`
of'the oldest towns in Massach`iisetts,
which w1s planted with: earn for
more than fifty years in succession.
In this ease the land was originally
clod, and constantly received the
ash from a broad hill -side, pastur=
ed with cattle. By :means of this
wadi, and annual manuring and care-
ful cultui e, a good crop was secured
each year for more than half : a cen-
tury.

Ducks . and EretS.
Same interesting experimentshave
recently been made upon the com=
parai<tive fecundity of ducks and bens,
so;ai.to determine from which of the
two the larger number of eggs can
be obtained in the same time. • For
this, purpose three bens and ducks
were selected,
all
hatched, e
din
Febru-
ary,
ebr -ary and nourished with suitable
food: In the following autumn the
ducks, laid 225 eggs, while the bens
laid none. In the following Febru-
ary the laying season began again
with the ducks and continued unin-
terruptedly until August. They
showed no inclination to set, but be -
canto very thin,.although they after-
wards fattened up somewhat. The
total number of eggs laid by the hens
amounted to 257, or 86 eggs each ;
and 392, or 131 each for the ducks,
which were smaller than the hens,
yet they proved to be decidedly
superior in productiveness to the
hens.

A Subterranean River,
The Leavenworth (Ind.) Democrat
gives the following account of the
discovery of an underground river :
During this age of ,discoveries and
"superstition, it becomes our duty, to
report a ' fact which - those unac
quaintecl with the singular develop- _
ments . of the day may. be somewhat
disposed to doubt. But we give it
as a positive truth, as related to us
by one of- the best citizens in this
county, who went ; and examined it.
It is as follows "Two men were
employed to dig a well on the farm
of Mr. Benjamin . Ellis, who resides
in Washington county, near theline

place where, . as ' they, thought,! it
would -not be probable to encounter
an obstruction in tiled search for
water. They bad proceeded but a
short distance, however, when they
encountered a bed of lost . ' niger
head, rocks, which, upon being brok-
en ()pen, were found to contain water
andother substances, supposed to be
ore of some :kind. , When they
reache' the depth of sixty feet from
the surface, .they . cane to a large
cave, .which ' they followed the dis-
tance of ,ten : or twelve feet, when
-there before their gaze was a beauti-
ful river 'of clear water, -which upon
examination was found to contain an
innumerable number of small white
fish. Upon a closer examination. it
was found to be 16' feet wide and
five feet in depth, and as clear and
cold as sp.riiig water., As an experi-
ment, a lighted candle was placed
upon a small piece of plank and set
afloat. It started off into the dark-
ness with the current. and was soon
last to sight. Several persons have
visited ' this great curiosity, and
many Were the conjectures- as to
Where the water came from and
whither it went, but nothing satis-
factory could be arrived at. It seems,
however, to be the general impres-
sion.

days gone by, when the country was
y
inhabited 'by- Indians, the latter had
known of
. this- cav9 and river, and

with loose rocks, and left it to return,
perhaps at some future - time, and

Rotation of Crops.
Every farmer practices, in some
degree, a notation of the :crops which
he cultifates. Experience lias
taught hint, that his soil will not
produce a paying crop of the same
plant, on the same soil, for several
years in succession. That . is,' unless
that soil is highly enriched by fer-
tilizing substances, so a.S to keep
such agents in the soil equal to what
is taken away by the pfants. Thus
gardens are usually kept -so highly
inanuretl as to require DO rotation;
