High Prices in the Domeitic Market
It is a general complaint every
where, says the State Guard, that the
high prices which prevail in the do
mestic markets of the country, are
now grinding the faces and pinching
the stomachs of the poor to a condi
tion of starvation. From all parts of
the country, alike in cities and in vil
lages, the high prices of agricultural
products demonstrate one of two pro
positions, to. wit : that an insufficient
_ proportion of our population is em
ployed in agricultural industry, or that
the cost of distributing these produc
tions to consumers ought to be dimirr
ished. It may be that both of these
propositions can be established.
The country needs more farmers,
cheaper carriage, and fewer middle
men. A direct tax on sales, as recom
mended by the Secretary of the treas
ury, would tend to bring the producer
and consumer into more immediate
connection, and the profits which now
accrue to middle men might accrue in
part to the treasury, and be made
available in payment of the national
debt without impoverishing the peo
ple. The great monopolies which con%
trol the carrying trade between the
east and west ought to be subjected
to a wholesome competition, so that
they would be induced to take a crop
of corn from New York or Boston for
something less than half its value.
Recent developments have shown
that agriculture is a profound science,
yet in its infancy, but susceptible of
indefinite advancement. Improved
implements and improved -fertilizers
have already done much to alleviate
the toils of the husbandman and to
increase farm products, but what the
country needs is more farmers, better
cultivation, and more agricultural
products to increase our exports and
turn the balance of trade in our fa-
lE2
The farmer needs more skill and a
better knowledge of economical hus
bandry. The wastes in fertilization
and upon farms, if properly econo ,
mized throughout the country, would
pay the national debt in a few .years.
Public attention needs to be arous
ed to the importance of this great in
dustry. The farmers of the country
want to be made to appreciate the
true grandeur of their calling. The
idle population in the cities 'ought tc
be induced to go to the country. The
rich should be induced to engage in
agriculture as an attraction, and the
poor as an useful employment. Homes
among farmers ought to be found for
the boys and girls of the cities that
are now being reared in idleness and
vagrancy, where they might be taught
useful industry, and be trained to be
virtuous and worthy citizens.
If the hordes of stock jobbers and
speculators, and half the petty traders
that are now living upon the honest
industries of the People would aban
don their callings, and turn their en
ferprize and industry to developing
the agricultural resources of the na
tion, we should have but little more of
hard times, or of the national debt. It
is difficult to imagine what the genius,
energy, and resources of Vanderbilt
and Drew would have wrought out if
they had been applied to developing
the agricultural resources of the prair
ies of Illinois. They would have har
nessed the elements to till the State,
and fill the markets of the world with
its products.
Row TO Grto tv PLII3IB.—The Ru
ral American says : "There is a secret
about plum raising. We have dis
covered it in traveling over the coun
try. We never visited a large plum
orchard in our life that we did not
find plenty of the fruit. And we nev
er visited any place with eight or ten
trees and found a good crop of• this
fruit. Now these facts set us to think
ing; and the result of our thoughts is
this: that it is very easy to have all
the plums you want to eat and sell.—
The secret connected with plum rais
ing is to plant -plenty of trees, so as
to give fruit to the cured:lllo_ and to
yourself also, If you will plant fifty
or a hundred trees, you will have fruit
enough for everybody. Every such
orchard that we ever visited had plen
ty of ripe fruit. Some even complain
ed that the curculio did not thin out
the fruit enough— that the trees were
overloaded. So we say to our read
ers, if you plant plums at all, plant
fifty or one hundred trees, then you
will be sure to have all the fruit you
want. It sells for $5 to $lO a bushel
in the St, Louis market, and is one of
the most profitable crops raised."
TEtiaTY-five years ago the net pro
ceeds of a majority of our farmers
would not have paid the taxes of to
day. The net annual proceeds of to
day are nearly as much as the farms
would have sold for then.
IN Western Massachusetts a com
pany of farmers with their wives meet
at some good tavern, in December,
talk over matters, and have a good
dinner and a good time.
THE best bank ever known is a bank
of earth; it never refuses to discount
to honest labor. And the best share
is the plow-share, on which dividends
are always liberal
TEE general experience among wo
men is, that if they follow the news
paper recipes for cooking, they have
stuff which only very hungry folks
will eat.
THERE are six thousand acres of
grapes in Ohio.
Tobacco for Lice on Animals and
Plants.
"What is the best method of kill
ing lice on calves and cattle, and will
the same thing kill fleas on dogs ?"
I have found by experience that a
strong decoction of tobacco will de
stroy vermin on either animals or
plants. I have used -it extensively
during many years, for destroying
ticks on sheep and lambs; have .dip
ped thousands of them in tobacco wa
ter, made by boiling coarse, damaged,
cheap tobacco, or stems and waste,
in water, and have found it an effect
ual cure for the scab, which disease is
caused by the working of an insect or
mite in the skin of the sheep. It is
a new severeign remedy for the blue
lice on cattle and horses.
Tobacco water will destroy the aph
is, or plabt louse. Gardeners find
their greenhouse plants need to be
submitted to a deluging of this wash
occasionally, to place them in a con
dition to become healthy and vigor
ous. When applied to fruit trees, if
coarse, waste tobacco is used, add one
pound of copperas to five gallons of
the wash. Plug tobacco contains cop
peras in quantities sufficient to kill
any animal, who has not accustemed
himself, by slow degrees, to its use.
Almost every tree or plant is infest
ed with an injurious insect, peculiar
to itself, which preys upon its sub
stance, and will, if in sufficient num
bers, destroy its . vitality. The hop,
in sections infested with the hop aph
is, is frequently either wholly or par
tially destroyed; when, by one or two
thorough applications of tobacco wa
ter, by means of a force pump or gar
den engine, as they commence their
work, the whole aphis army might be
swept away. When the vine is train
ed low, upon seven feet stakes and
twine, a garden engine is unnecessary,
as the wash can be applied as effect
ually, and with less waste, with a com
mon large hand syringe.
Tobacco smoke will stupify any ani
mal, and, used in a sufficient quanti
ty, has a fatal effect upon all which
plug tobacco will destroy: Indeed
there seems to be but one animal—the
chief of the class mammalia—upon
which tobacco, in either shape, does
not have an immediate fatal effect.—
However, if that animal would other
wise be infested with insects, even tri
chinous in their nature, in the mouth,
tobacco will keep them away. Per
haps that is their case. •
If a sheep or calf is covered with a
rubber or leathern spread, or thick
blanket, and a smoke of tobacco is
made under this covering, in half an
hour or less, every tick and nit will be
destroyed. Currant' worms may be
served in the same manner. This is
not only an effective remedy against
vermin, but a good use for a most ob
noxious weed.—Cor. Country Gent.
Small Farming vs. Large Farming.
It is no less true now, than when
- the American philosopher said—
"A little farm well tilled,
A little wife well willed."
A disposition to extend the broad
acres, own a large farm, and all the
land adjoining it, is a great mistake ;
and, in nine cases out of ten, the real
profits of the large farmer fall from
25 to 50 per cent. below those of the
thrifty, frugal man, on his SO or 160
acres.
There are a few instances where
men may occasionally succeed, but they
are exceptions to the rule of large
farming. The large farmer has to ex
pend more than the small farmer in
the way of teams, wagons, implements
and machinery, hired help, heavy tax
es on large tracts cf land, stock and
personal property, which lie necessar
ily has to accumulate ; then, there is
the wear and tear of harness and tools,
the continual expense of keeping up
fences, buildings, etc. Last, and not
least, there must needs be a large
amount of capital invested in all this
necessary outfit for a large farm.
The small farmer on his SO acres, or
quarter section, with one good team,
himself and a little hired help, or his
own boys, if he has any, can perform
his labor of improving his farm, culti
vating and harvesting his crop, with a
moderate expenditure ; and when he
foots up . his accounts at the end of the
year, will come out ahead of his large
farmer neighbor. The great success
in farming is, manuring, deep plow
ing and thorough tillage. This is
more easily done on small tracts of
land, and much more likely to be done,
than on the large farm.
Small farming can be done more
scientifically and systematically than
it is generally practicable to have done
on large farms ; and the consequence
is, that more is produced to the acre.
than is the result of large farming.
If such is the fact—which is founded
upon reason and practical demonstra
tion—small farming addi to the wealth
of our country, both in excess of pro
ducts and the actual worth of real
estate ; which is more thoroughly and
generally improved in small than in
large tracts of land. It is manifest
evidence of growing wealth and pros
perity, to see the large farms and tracts
in Missouri, being divided into small
farms, and making still more new
homes ; increase Our population, stim
ulate enterprise, build up our institu
tions, and make us a strong and
wealthy State.— Cor. Rural World.
ALL orchard trees should be kept
free of sprouts that star t out from the
base of the trunks of the trees; re
move the soil and cut them clear off.
HANDLE cows gently if you don't
want them to kick when being milked.
They won't kick unless something
hurts them or they fear something
will.
