 GENrLEMEN.-HaVing made a small ex- pertinent upon the weeyil wheat, state the facts for you information. In l843, filled a hogshead with wheat, shortly after harvest, throwing in handful of common salt with each hall-bushel. ltremained perfectly dry, sound, and free from weeviIs until it was sowed, in October. In l844, a part of the crop was cleaned out immediately after har- vest, and spread ig dry garrett: the weevils soon ruined that. 4 part was put in a gran ary in the chali, and was partially injured by the weeyiI. The residue was placed in hogshead, as before, pint of salt being sprinkled on each busheI; and it is now as sound and dry as when put up The salt is liot absorbed, and may be shifted out and us- ed for stock, without loss.

 This idea derived from the Agrculturist and it alone has already saved me several times the value of my four years subscrip- ton. Very respectfully,
