There are many evlid and substantial rea- | Sons favoring the practice of late fall plough- jing. I know no crop, or soils, except sandy | soils, bat what is improved and benefitted by fall ploaghiog, which we would recommend \to be performed ee-late in the fall as the |wenson will allow, in order to prevent vege- j tation starting unew.

And vast |fumbers of insects ure turned up to perish | by the culd ; and seeds of useless and trouble- | sume plants or weeds, that have germinated }in early autuain, are also disturbed and de- | troyed: But there are other advantages to | be derived from ploughing in the fall. The work is usually performed at a time when | the farmer ur his workmen have most oppor- tunity for it, when the ‘burry’’ of the sea- son is over, and ‘the teams art in good con- dition.

He is eértainly mach better circumstanced in this respect than could possibly have been the | case, had his ploughing being deferred until spring, when the uucertamty of the weather adds greatly to the pressure of the work on hand. In the former case the farmer ‘‘drivea his work,’’ bat, in the latter, it frequently oceurs that his *+work drives bim.’? As aa able writer well remarks, **how often bas the farmer, on @ elay farm, wished, just ag his land has become dry etvagh in the spring to begin ploughing, that he could set ten’ ploughs in motion, instead of one, that he might finish his work before the next storm — which Was now warning him of its approack —should delay his stirring the soil for two weeks lunger."’ And, as every farmer well knows, planting on a foal sward, tirned over tor the first time in the spring, makes |} the work of cultivation much more difficuls ; and laborious, and the surface yields nu na- | trimeot for the young plant, until it pushes | its routs to reach the decomposing vegetable }mater turned ander by the plough. But | where this vegetable matter is buried in the ; S0a80N. ‘full, decomposition takes place in most in- | stances before spring, and thus furnishes ne. | cessary pabulum to the roots of the growing plant, us it is required.
