Delmont, Jugutt 27thf 1817. Dear Sir. I have ai much leisure at this moment as I may hive at any time, to answer your of the 1 4th August instant. I do lrt pre sume, that my opinion on a subject of much pre judice and opposition, can be of much weight, because a few practical proofs will far exceed all personal assertions. I have been through my life a friend to deep ploughing. I never plough shallower than 3, and generally 7 inches. My soil is of various qualities : Some of it has a substratum of reddish isinglass sand, and looks when trenched 12 inches deep, liV.e the moulder ings of ao old "brick kiln. I prefer ploughing deep in the fall ; because the winter operates fa vourably on the fallow. But, spring or fall, I nev er break up shallow. I had the last harvest a better ciop of wheat than my tenant, (a good plotfghman,) and as good as anjr I have known not lest than 30 bushels to the acre, on a field broken up in the fall of 1 8 1 5, 9 inches deep. The sod was rotted by lying undisturbed and unturned, and became itself a manure. I seed shallow, and generally harrow in my grain, with orchard grass for hay, or pasture. This is now above the stubble, and I shall mow it in a short time. I generally lime ray fall or spring fallows ; prefer ring the former season. After a Crop of corn on my ifmed land, I generally sov wheal, (but not the same year with the corn,) and dung moder ately for the wheat and grass. Without manure I would take my chance of deep, against shal low ploughing; but am littje acquainted with sowing for profitable crops without bestowing some manure, to entitle me to beneficial results. I have been informed of some sandy lands on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, which did not answer well when deep ploughed. Out in most instances within my knowledge, it is so much pre ferable to shallow ploughing, that I have never been shaken in my opinion or practice. I have always ploughed new ground deep when it re quired no manure ; and worn land invariably ; though 1 assist it with manure, which is doubly more efficacious with leep, than with shallow ploughing. I know you will have to encounter many prejudices. Some rising out of honest ignorance, or wrong conceptions ; and some founded in an indolent disposition to follow a beaten track. Set an example yourself, and get some neighbour to do the same. This will be the most effectual mode to force conviction. There ate, no doubt, some lands on which deep ploughing will do no good. Hut such lands must be very little worth j or be subject to very peculiar circumstances, whereof no one can judge at a.dis- tarice."';"''.'"'".,".', 77" 77""" ' I wrote an epitome of agriculture for our al manack but it wai too copious for that publica tion. "It is now printed as part of our 4th volume. I will send you a copy. . OrnhcSubjccr press myself : " VI. Break ui deefi, and be not afraid of turn- tag up the barren soil, when the nature of your " ground admits this operation. Shallow plough u ing up the vegetable mould deceptiously serves "a turn, when it is not exhausted ; and its ex '' Eausuon is the certain' consequence of this ill " judged tillage. ;. The air contains lc principal u, store of materials for the food of ptaut.s, and will games, nor indulge in the use of anient spirits; and to I . , , .. . . . pehttneselv "length- of time ; especially in winter when it " receives much and parts with little ; the heat of "the sun beings feeble, and incapable of dispel " ling what the soil receives from the air.

They have fnisnianagcd experiments', 4or have beeq.in too great haste to crop their u grounds. The substratum, mu.t be .exposed "jora tinie necessary to receive the influences i il Qf the atmosphere.

True I be re are, some soils which neither deep nor trench ploughing will benefit rnd ererjr. farmer ihould accom-"" ' modate his practice to the nature and qualities " of his soil. Over-croppiflf; and shallow plough irrgr with ' exhausttef -eropf izr urcctsxion, frelrr "qucntly cause overwhelming growths of sorrel lo inlcst ill managed fields- is the only... remedy.: and you will see In Lord Dundoniild'i" u Connexion, Uci the good effects of timet which ' ''destroys the sorrcly and produces the torrcHne u acid, highly friendly to wholesome and profitable u vegetation. Grrrn sorrel grows on fertile soils ; "but red sorrel is a certain mark of sterility." Kvcry body knows the use of mixing, by deep ploughing, u substratum of clay with a s-indy sur face, and ice versa ; also turning up'vlrgin earth to mix with an exhausted surface will in winter operate on the fallow, before cropping. I can give you no better answer to your queries. I wish you success in your agricultural objects) most sincerely. ' The country people around me thought me crazy, when I trench ploughed 40 or 50 acres of niy farm. The crops convinced them that insane persons hit on some good things. Some of my fields are yet the better for the operation, though my fust essays were made at least 45 years ago Although I cannot prevail on them to trench, the most of them plough deeper and better thai) formerly. My fields have been gene f ally assist ed by all the manure I could obtain lime nev er omitted. When I cannot manuret I do not cultivate, Miracles have ceased, and no adequate returns can be expected from worn lands, without renovating fertility by artificial substitutes for tho bountiful fruitfulness of nature. Good ploughing is the foundation of all postern or operations. How roots of any plant can thrive, when they are impeded by an hard arid impene trable substratum, I am at loss to conceive The fact is notoriously otherwise ; and one would ira-' agine that experience would supersede the ne cessity of all reasoning. In England their e (Torts are constant in promoting aration to its greatest perfection. Ploughing matches and premiums to ploughmen, are objects of the first considera tion, among those who devote their talents, time and money to the encouragement of agricultural improvement. And yet I have scn as good ploughing in this country, as I ever saw in that. But good ploughing, or good crops, never met my eye, among those who talked about turning up clay and barren earth by deepening their fur rows. A wandering exception may occur to any general observation ; and one such exception n viewed by prejudice through a magnifying glass. I should not know how to define deep plough ing, unless I compare it with the superficial scratching of too many old fashioned farmers. I call ploughing of 5 or 7 inches deep common ploughing ; us it is with most in this quarter the Uiual practice. At least it is so with me. Yours, very truly HICIIARD PETERS. Geo. W.
