Alternation of crop, is unquestionably one of lliu best and most economical means of preserving ferttlil), and of increasing the profits of llie farm. All crops exhausts thu soil more or leas, of the general ele-incuts of fertility, though all do nol ex-haust 10 the same exit nt, nor do all ex-haust 11 alike of certain specific properties.. It 1, believed that every lamil) of plants icquire a specific food, which other fami-lies de nol stand ill need of, and which they do not lakt u/>. This is evidenced by thu I i.t, lhal wheat cannot be grown profitably, 111 ordinary grounds, in two successive years, upon the same field, without a great falling od in the product. And it is now la d .low 11 as an axiom, in good husbandry, lhal two crops of any small grain should never be taken from Iho same field in suc- OCMIVC years, because the) draw too large- It upon tho same specific food. But alter .111 interval of lour or Bte years, in which grass and roots intervene, the specific food of Ihe wheat crop has so accumulated in the soil thai this grain may be ogam prof-ilablv grown upon it. So with all other farm crops, not even excepting the grasses. ho law of natural cbauge 111 the product, 01 a soil is so palpable, lhal ill i'lauders and Holland, where flax is one of the prof-liable Staple., they do not think of C'ilti_- v.iting this crop upon the same ground of. loner than twelve years. Our farmers seem to appreciate these "irulhs irt refer-ence to Ullage crops, without duly relle-. t-mg that they apply as well lo grass as to grain. Meadows do deteriorate ; ill a for, tears the Gill r grasses run out, because tin! 'soil becomes exhausted of llie particular tooJ which afford, them noiiri-liuient; coarse or innulrieious plants take their place, and the herbage becomes inferior in .quaint, and greatly diminished in quantity. I pou an average, old established meadows would yield double ihitr. present crops, if judiciously alternated with grain and root crops. The terms "suitably divided into im aelow, and plough and pasture lands," II Inch are generally employed to rce-om-uietul farms on sale, arc an indication of bad husbandly, and very often betrays the secret which compels the owner lo sill. Excepting in »er| stony districts, every acre of land which will pro-luce good grass, . s, may, by being rendered dry and rich be made to" produce good grain and roots. Iii ihe convertible system of husbandry pcrmament meadow or plough lauds ire almost unknown—every field produces in lutn, crops of grain, grass and roots. nitre are tiir-e clones of crops, which alternate beneficially with each other, viz : 1st. Grain, or corn, or dry crops, winch mu-llire their seed, and most exhaust iho fer-tility of tin will:—3d. Grass crops, of iho influence ol which upon the soil, I have aln .ulv spoken : end il.l.

All green crops are more or less fertilizing, when buried in the soil; but clover is lo be preferred, as well 1111 ac. eouiii of ill enriching properties to the soil, as that it also all'ords hay mid pasture.
