SUBSOIL PLOUGHING. A Prist Eteag A Wmhnrth Farmer's Club. BY THOMAS KIER SHORT. At for the adaniagei derived from iub oiling much diversity of opinion exists, and, on the whole, very little m yet known. Some practical farmer maintain that it is labor lost, and money thrown away; others equally competent to judge, say that it is one of the most beneficial operations in farming, almost equal to a good manuring, and no system is complete without it. Thus we see practical men diff.'r; both may be fight and both may be wrong. I can proiluce instnnVs where the use of the) enbsoil plough hits been attended with the greatest benefit, and others where it has been so much money thrown jwiy. Many of its advocates are too much prejudiced in ita favor, being1 under an improsion w a matter of course, being henefirisl to them, it must be lhe aime to others! but this does not follow, for, like many other operations in agricul ture, science must be called to our aid. An alysis is requisite; and chemistry solves the question.

The other soil where no gi.od wi?rrrv'oiit-anieil 4-yr-wm.-.-if ai - timina. and rested bii one of the wotst of clays the lias. ' i . .i l e I was l.iuuceu io iry ineae nuaiyaes ironi having seen a pnper some lime back, in "The Journal of the Royal Agricultural Society." by Mr. Thompson, who is of opinion that no permanent good can be de- rived Irom subsoilinz land containing more than 43 per cent, of alumina. I am im dined to think thatUO per cent, is the g-fatl est to whicn the per cenlage should go; ar.d, at an instance of this that the les alumina llu land cwtnina, the more pernufj nent the advantage. Land containing less than 8-j per cent, of alumina, when ploughed after being sub - loiiea, ana naving prouueeu a crop, turns up in a mucV be ter slate, approaching more to a strong loam ihan clay, and is much easier to work; and I am or opinion that ihe cost of eubaoiling is saved in the labor alone. - I have been much surprised to see alronir land on the lias formation, which! had been subsoiled, turn op the year follow- ' . I . ing as compact anu icntcioui as eer, tne process oi neeiing; and, as most larm without a cracic or any other mark in il lo ' era ore anxious lo have what fhey term a denote ill t it had ever been moved; and finmbed for thin wheat, the licht soil which thia can only be accounted for by the pre' sence of alumina in such large quantities, ! which, being divided into very minu'e particles, bavin? a very strong attraction for each ftibpr and fir water, causes them unite it 8rm as ever. Qq Ihe light or sand land I have te n great advantage derived from suhsoiling also; but in this case we cannot allow al- umini to have any thing to do with it, con- sequently we rnusl look to other ckuset ai ine tame lime I have seen laiiuret e ; flually at great on light soils as on strong fflays, - f As an, instance of the benefit derived i, spbsoilinf sand or light gravelly land, , p .c.cr .rem ww fjinugoeu 7 incrtee deep with the common plough, and followed bv the subsoil plough fourteen inches morer two lands were left und One in the middle of the field; the operation was nerformnl in November, 1815. IrM8-NJ, he land wit town wim Swedish turnips on ridgit, the ridgee crossing the eubaoilingj tlie whale of the field was manured alike with boaetaud fold yard, manure; oolbirrg . par- licular was noticed in the turnips until the bulbs b-gan to fopa in the autumn, when it was evident those on the subsoiled land were growing the fastest. Late in the auHTmn, in crossing the field, the two lands undone had the appearance of a hollow or valley across the field, be ing much less in both bulbs and tops, and four tons per scie less in weight. The barlev also showed the two land cons pic uously, and the seeds this summer have stood the dry months much better lhah where the land was not subsoiled. I could give it some other evidence, but I do not eonsid.-r it requisite. - We will now examine th cause of suc cess and failure on light soils. It is wut known that a toil may he nrh in mineral constituents ' requisite lor tne growth ofplanin. but from the state if com bination in which these mineials nre found. cannot be nsaimilaled by plants as food; consequently, in their present aItc, nie of little use. teiende tenches us how to bring these constituents into use, and the more we know of it the simpler we find the pro cess. These minerals, in their present state of combination, are t.-rmed dormant," and in many eases only' require exposure, to th- ar i- foe-it- ie- -we-M-know n.-tbaLibc-..iiatdcat, rock in time becomes disintegrated by the ae'ion of the air, .which is principally at f If ibtHe4 lo- ItHs - pTcsejUje. nf .arhnjiic- .acid in the atmosphere.
