    GRAIN earming in eastern pennsyl
VANIA. 111.
Almost every State has its distinct phases
of agriculture, occasioned by its soil and
climate, or by its first settlers. Grain grow
ing, which is the leading business in the hus
bandry of the best portions of Eastern Penn
sylvania and New Jersey, is secured by the
peculiarities of the soil mainly. The soil
which is under the plow is easily tilled* and
comparatively free from boulders or largo
stones. There is nothing to interfere with
the plow, the harrow, or the cultivator! For
the most part, corn is not touched with the
hand-lioe ofter planting, and even the plant
ing is often done by the drill. Lime is al
most everywhere cheap, and with the small
quantities of manure made, serves to keep
up the fertility of the land with very mode
rate applications! The farms underlaid with
limestone are said tO)be, subject to .drought
in summer, making them unreliable for pas
ture. Eye or wheat, oats and corn, are
easily raised, aiid probably pay better than'
dairy farming. They take less capital, in
volve less labor, ,bnd .require /less skill. The.
rotation, corn oflalijme;d sod, oats or a sum
mer fallow, manure, apd winter grain; either
rye or wheat, clover, and timothy are com
mon. making a five ;, or six years’ course.
There is a uniformity in - following this
courso, without nideh regard to the nation
ality of the original -settlers. i«r.’ I; ;; c . cl)
We come upon the characteristic Penn
sylvania Barn, long beforb wo enter the
State at Easton, travelling by the' Morris
and Essex railroad. It is planted if pqssi
ble, upon aside hill, and has ono or two
stories below the barn .floor, where the hay
and grain are delivered! The best model
has stone gables, atid the walls of the lower
stories are of stone or briek, laid in mortar,
and made rat proqf. The entrance to the
main floor ,is djrectly frojn the ground on
the upper side,,orby a, broad,,drive-way, of
gentle ascent where this is,necessary.; It is
of large capacity, frequently 50 by 100 feet,
and will hold several hundred tons of bay
and grain. Ther,e are deep bays on either;
side of the floor for hay, and immediately,’
beneath the floor is the,granary into which*
the wheat, oats, and rye; are received, when,
they are threshed. The threshing and cut-'
ting of strawj corn fodder, and hay, is all ■
done by horsepower: I '’fllhe cut feed is con-;
veyed by a shoot to Ih’e stables in the base;
ment, where li is mixed with ineal, and fed
to the animals. The whole basement is ,oc-'
cupied with Btalls for cattle and horses.
There is a large cistern in®^iV ; side hill,,
catching all the water frqm -the barn,.and;
furnishing an abundant supply for the stock.
A pipe brings the water from the cistern,!
immediately in front of the feeding 1 stalls,
so that little time is lost in-watering. Some
times a neighboring spring,’instead of a cis
tern, furnishes the water.- There is one
grand dofect in this style of barn—the want
of some means near the'stalls for the preser
vation and composting of manures, and with,
this supplied, we,do not know that it could
be changed for the better. Manures are not
prized so highly as thou are further East,
and for this perhaps thomme is at fadlt. It
is a great Ipbor to clean out the stables in
this kind of barn. The. manure, i's carried
out by wheel-barrow or” other coutrivance,
and deposited in the open yard, where,
mixed with straw, it lies exposed till the an
nual clearing out comes in August or Sep
tember, for the oat .stubble or Summer fal
low. A barn cellar underneath tho stables
would save largely in labor, and in the value
of manure, We think,: on many of these
farms, from two to five hundred dollars are
lost every year for want of a cellar.
Pork raising is quite an important item in
the business ,of the grain farm. The pigs
are sometimes fed in clover through the
summer, but quite as frequently run .at
large, and the manure is wasted/ They are
generally fed upon raw corn, and in large
inclosures when, shut up for fattening. We
did not find the »smaU pen ■yv.ell filled with
muck or loam, upon which the eastern far
mer relies lor several cords of his heat
manure. We believe it pays to have swine
sheltered, and to feed with ground and cook
ed food. ■■ f
MUTTON AND WOOL.
When the whole community of sheep
raisers is running wild, almost, after fin’e
wool sheep, it may seem strange to some
that we should continually advocate inutton
breeds. Perhaps it would not be so if these
wore the favorites of the speculative class of
breeders. We chn, and do, raise as good
mutton in this conritry as they do in Eng
land, but our people are not such mutton
eators, and, though mutton raising pays
quite as well, in fact better usually, than
beef-raising, yrit our market is not a dis
criminating ode, and the most profitable
sheep to buy and fatten are fine-wools, if
bought with judicious care. There is always
sale for South-down' and Gotswold mutton,
and the difference in price is not what it
ought to be, though remunerative.
Ot late thore has been a remarkable change
in the value qf the combing wools. They
have increased in price, while fine wools rule
soarcely any higher than in specie times,
aud, were the quotations reduced to the gold
standard, they would* be lower now than for
many years. The reasons for the high price
of long wools are several. A ,class of manu
factures has. come in vogue which requires
these combing wools, and the supply from
Canada is, in a good measurement off by the
operation of the now Tariff, while in Eng
land, the home demand keeps prices up, and
the wool chiefly at home. : The small amount
of combing wools raised in this obuhtry is
jmt, it seems, sufficient fbr the demand.
There seems to bg,a:n overstock of goods
made from the fipqst wools, and mnßufac
turers are buying.but very limited quantities,
hence the general, depression of the fine'
wool market.
THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 1867.
A few years ago long wool sold according
to quality—length, fineness, strength and
gloss—at 25e. to 35c. per pound. Now it sells
at 50c. to 75c. The clip of a flock of equal puri
ty and excellence recently sold, unwashed,
at 50c. to 55c., which is equal tq 75c. to 82c.,
according to the usual calculation—deduct
ing one-third as loss in washing. It is not
to be expected that these relative prices will
continue, but it is certain that these beauti
ful combing fleeces have“gaine’d; and will
hold, 'a value far above carpet Wools.
For the real Wool-raiser, no doubt the
best policy will ever be to raise.the finest
and best wool, free from excess of grease;
but for sftfall farmers who hat/e rich farms
on which : a few Bheep, 50 to 100, viitfdo well;

, ABOUT WEEDS.
Thhre can be no specific that l will kill an
undesirable plant—or weed- —ahclnot injure
the desirable plants of the crop. ; Therefore;
all applications, be they salt, plasters, ashes,!
or nMhat;riot,' merely to kill weeds, are simply;
absurd. CuTtivation.Consists, solelyin giving
the.plant that we wish to grow an advantage
over other;plants. In an uncultivated field,;
where everything is 16ft to itself,-it hecomes
a “struggle for existence*” hnd the-strong
est—which Is üßuallyithc:most
gets the best of it. In all our cultivation,!
the aim is to give the crop we wish 16’ grow
sole possession of the soil, and all our culti-,
vators, horse-hoes, hand-hoes .of all. kinds,
ete.j are used to destroy every ,'p ( fanib except,
a particular one that wc wish, sho,uld have

thus, them,,it is!.no, exception to the/
general rule. : Had he ,put an, equal,, amount
of salt, all over his lawn, he \popld have
killed everything upon it. , We have but
little sympathy with a gardener who lets
the weeds get the .better of. him. -His soil;,
should have been •kept, so constantly stirred'
that weeds could have no chancel Whoever

THE BEST WAY TO EAISE POTATOES.
A new way of planting potatoes has been
adopted in England, and to some extent has
been tried in this country, with gqcid suc
cess:
The seed, is planted under straw, being
simply dropped on the ground, and a thick
layer of 1 Straw spread over it, which takes
the place of manure in several ways: First
preventing the escape' of ammonia, and thus'
governing the growth of vegetation, aS'is
seen where brush is allowed to remain on,
the ground in grass land; second, by keep
ing the f ground moist arid pliable during the
hot season, arid third, by furnishing through
its gradual decay a large amount of actual
nourishment; The crop requires neither cul- :
tivating nor hoeing, as the growth of Weeds '
is entirely smothered, the rank vines pene
trating through the straw; which is im
pervious to the weaker weeds, that have no
strong pulp to force them along. The crop
on the removal of the straw is found lying
on the ground, almost as clean as if it had
been washed, as indeed it has been by all
the rains of the sealson. It is stated that a
thousand’ bushels to the acre have been
raised by this process. • .

AN OHIO STEAMBOAT BUN BY PETEO-
leUm.
A successful, experiment was made Iqst
week on the Ohio river with petroleum as a,
substitute for coal in navigation. The Cin
cinnati Gazette says of the new method of
raising steam: The advantages of this ar-,
rangement ape so obvious that it seems, al
most superfluous, yet we cannot resist point
ing out at least a few of them, First of all
we have the economy, of the fuel itself—
twenty dollars’ worth of petroleurn being
equal to fifty dollars’ worth of coal. Then,
there is the economypf weight and space,
which is as one to ten. In addition to this
we have the saving of wagos Of firemen and
co.al heayers, the saving of time in taking,
the fuel on board, and above all the perfect
control of the engineer over the fire, and the,
complete- absence of danger from’ sparks.
The explosive qualities of petroleum have
hitherto been the great bugbear by which
our enterprising steamboat builders and ma
chinists have been scared, off. We ,aro not
at all surprised at this, for steam itself.had
to struggle hard ere it could assort its su
premacy over every other power in use, and
wo feel satisfied thiaf coal will 'give way to :
petroleum as the tov?path gave way to the
railway. But let us look a rnoment at the
Conditions required to make petroleum ex
plosive. They are three: a pent up space,
a mixture with atmosphere, and the actual
living flame. It will not explode in an open
vessel; it cannot explode unless it is first
turned into gas, and aredhotiton immersed
into the oil will simply commuaicate to it
its caloric and cool off. Any one of the
above conditions being lacking, the oil is
perfectly harmless, In this respeetit.does not
differ from alcohol,, whisky, turpentine, and
a hundred oiher substances with which con
stant use has familiarized us, and which con
sequently we- consider perfectly safe. Naj r ,
even coal itselfl is more.daingbrous than ; pe
troleum-, ,for while the fpjrmer is suhjee.t,,jto
spontaneous combustion,With the, latter it
is simply impossible. * Again, while with'
coHl thefe’is' 1 danger in cvbfy
above, below' around danger with the
petroleum,is only; above.,; If A! lump, of burn-,,
eoal falls on the floor, it will singe appphuru
in every direction; let petroleum be .spilled
oh the floor and batch firb, a lurid/flame will
shoot up .out-in a'few 66cohdt,- ; withl
out ieven -scorching the floor; . Hence we
have nothing to.iguard. against but,lts in
flamnqability, and this has been adrpirably.
