Hy tho ol.? method, immedi^toly the Whoit begins to «row, tho pjison is ab.«orb«d ai i becomes uoeloss. Wiiolo Whrai does not absorb the poison beyond ihe outer skiu or bran and a f'-w bl>.owct3 of rain washe3 it off. I h ;ve imported a machine at con- piderabl • co.v for splitting the wheat berry cl n» iho crease ned removing the which, of course, preveuta goimi- nation, (has preserving the (ull strength of the poison whrn applied. The Wheat prepared by my process absor s thoetrychnino- through the finny portions of the berry after it is split and de-i-ormod, and aathe birds are known to ri-jcct the onler husk and eat only tha iuaido, ihe poiaon cvnoct fail to bo effective. Kecouda of Wheat contain ho many foreign 3eeds, auch as oornbino, aorrol, dock weeds, &c, which birds never touch, that it is expensive, and a waste of etrychnine to use It as has hitherto boan done. The small and withered grains m s- couda cannot possibly absorb RufScient pojaon to mnke it of any value, and much injury ia don* to the land m ths difl<sruiinatimi of noxics weeds. I shall be pit-a?r-d t » thow fismples of Wheat as it comes from the machine and aftor pniaoning, and explalu fully the improve- ments m my proceaa to all who take an interest ib grain growing. J. M.
