Chinese £ugar Cane as Food for Stock,
Wo fin 1 iu a Georgia paper, a communica
tion from a correspondent who signs himself F.
J. it., and dates Oglethrope county, in that
State, Aug. 21, 1858, from which we make the
following extract, and ask for it the attention
of our readers.
This- is my third season of cultivating the
Chinese cane. 1 have seven acres of it this yean
five of which I planted f'w the express put pose
of feeding ft green and dry to .'torses, cattle and
hogs; and since the Ist of June, until now, I
have been feeding it daily to those animals.—
My calvss buvo run daily upon two acres, sown
broadcast, since that tiino. My cows and oxen
while sick wiih tho " black tongue " were daily
fed with it. My oxen, when at work, are fed
upon it, berscs ditto. My hogs aro daily fed
with the cano now, and are in fine growing or
der. 1 iutend to fatten my pork upon the cane,
as not only good feed "but equal to corn for tbe
same purpose! These facts can be attested by
iny neighbors, for they know ail about them.—
After three years' experience with the Chinese
sugar cane, I have come to the following con
clusions in regard to it, and I give thoin for
what they are worth—not caring a "bawbee"
whether or not they are endorsed by the peo
ple.
1. For forage, either green or dry, there is
no plant so valuable.
2. More grain can ho uride upon the same
land than oats will produce, with an analytio
value as food of one-third over oats !
3. For hogs, it is next to corn, in every par
tic ula r.
•4. For sirup, it is equal to any cane, und
for sugar, ditto!
This is no mere speculation—l have tried
tlie forage, made sirup and sugar, and for the
analysis of its value as food, am indebted to
Prof. Lee.
There was not nearly as much sugar cane
seed planted last spring, as we had supposed
there would have been—why, we cannot say ,
inasmuch, as taken altogether there was never
a new thing introduced among us of so much
decided value, whether it be regarded as seed
and fodder producing, or with a single view to
sugar and molasses. In what way tho sugar
cane has failed to meet the expectations of
those who planted it last year, wo arc unable
to say. All that was ever promised for it by
the most sanguine, was realised; and yet in our
excursions into tho country, we have not found
it cultivated to any thing like the extent and
uniformity among farmers that wc had reasou
to anticipate. All that we ever recommended
was, that it should be grown by farmers in
small quantities to supply the domestic demand
for molasses, while the fodder and seed would
add to its value as a permanent crop, and al
together make it highly desirable upon every
farm. — Germatitown Telegraph.
Farming by Machinery. —We hail gladly
the introduction of every good labor-saving
machine, and we rejoice to see that the preju
dice against such implements is disappearing
front the public mind. It is becoming plain to
every cue, that the substitution of mechanical
forces for mere muscular strength tends to elc
vato mankind. Men are changed by it from
mere mechanics to makers and controllers of
machines. Instead of going the same round
of hard, wearing labor, from generation to gen
eration, like a blind horse in the treadmill,
they may now throw very much burdensome
toil upon machinery: may subject the powerfnl
but blind forces of nature to the control of the
human will. If wood and iron can do much of
the drudgery of life just as well as human sin
ews, surely it is better tbat thoy should do it.
If, by the aid of a horse and a cultivator, one
man tan till as much laud as ten men with ten
hoes could do their work, surely there is a great
gain. So with all substitutes for the expendi
ture of human strength.
To us, the groat argument for machinery in
agriculture is not its cheapening effect, but the
relief it gives the farmer from wasting toil, and
the opportunity it affords him for self improve
ment. Its tendency is to make farming attrac.
tive, no less than profitable. Well has a wri
ter observed: "Machinery, regarded as a
uieaos to banish man's slavery to toil bv sub
stituting brain work for the labor of tho hand,
i-s the high road to that fuller and more perfect
development of society which poets have paint
ed, philosophers predicted, aud revelation, it is
believed by many, expressly predicted."— Jig
riculturist.
Sfbajns. —A gentleman of OollLville, 111.,
writes that having a severely sprained ankle,
he took a tca-cup full of common salt aud a
pint of sweet milk, and boiled them together
till of tho consistency of a poultice, then spread
it on a cloth, and bound it round the ankle.
The next motuing there was a little weakness
' but the soreness and lameness had all gone. j
Our correspondent says that cider vinegar with
salt, is also good, aud just as good for horses
and cattle as for men, and should be applied in
the same way.
