 CUTTING WHEAT EARLY.--From our own exprience, and from the experiments made by others, particularly the ably conducted ones of Mr. Hannam of England, Of which an ac- count has been given in a former volume oe the Cultvator, we have been convinced that farmers much more frequently err by allow ing their wheat 10 stand too long before cut ting, than by harvesting too early. We have never known an instance where loss was sustained from early cutting, kat iheTe IS not a year passes ill which more or less IS not suffered by. standing too long. Cut early. the berry IS wiliter, the skin thinner, and the flour better Tine following, which we find m the Michigan Farmer will add to tic proofs already given in the Cultivator, that eur posi- tion IS correct. ltls part of letter from Dr. Eldridge;

 Amasa Andrews Esq, Of this town, har- vested sixty acres of wheat last season, while it was so green and unripe, that every farmer in the neiggf5orhood thought, and did not hesitate to declare him mad He commenced cutting ;on days before siiy person 'hesght of beginning, and finished before others had begun. The berry when cut was soft, sad in that state known as being in the milk.' He has now threshed it; and being somewhat curious to learn the result Of the experiment, to-day went in company with Mr. Andrews To the mill, and examined the wheat Hound it plump, with peculiar transparency Of the berry, never before saw--whieh is to be attributed to the very thin coating of the bran. We weighed some and found that lt weighed just sxty-three lbs. to the measured btshel, and the experienced miller informed me that il made more -four and less bran than any wheat he ever saw.o .attaag CRitirator.
