AX OL FAKSKR'S EXPERIENCE.
The following biis of experience are worth
making a note of. There is only one point
in which we disagree with onr venerable
friend. It is in regard to the degeneration of
wheat, oati and potatoes. If we save the
seed of small grains, in the ear or head, and
especially if we giva drill culture, extra care
and perhaps hoeing to tha grain we wish for
seed, and select the heaviest kernels from the
earliest and largest heads, small grains will
not degenerate a&y more than corn. Our
friend writes:
"I have farmed 46 years for myself and ev
er since 1881 have taken two agricultural pa
pers. I have been greatly benefitted by their
instruction, although there are many things
published in them that never ought to be.
Allow me to give yeu a few facts Fruit
trees should never be trimmed in February,
March or April; the time is when they are in
blossom The time to cut timber, to have
it last, is in January and February, July and
August One load of manure hauled out ia
the fall after the sun crosses the line, and
spread, is worth two to four loads hauled in
the spring, any way that you can fix it....
Fall-plowing is beneficial on clay loam or
muck soil, and on sandy and gravelly soil if
you can plow before there is any frost
Some men say that corn will degenate and
run out. My father got a kind of yellow 12-
rowed corn in the year of the great eclipse
1806, which I remember very well. I took it
from him ia the spring of 1820 and have it
now. It is an early, sound corn, very easy to
husk. I can raise bushels of shelled corn
to the acre with no extra labor, planting 3£
feet each way. I have another kind of 8-
rowed yellow corn, which I got in 1828, which
will grow and ripen in 90 or 100 days
Wheat, oats and potatoes wear out [with
ordinary culture ; ED.]. We do not harvest
our grain and cut our hay early enough in this
country When I commenced farming
I was closely watched by my neighbors, who
said I plowed too deep, cut my hay too early,
and cut my grain too green. I have farmed
on 12 different farms, and the result has been
I have trebled the crops on an average. I
have drained three farms pretty thoroughly
within the last 20 years, and am now Presi
dent of the Connty Agricultural Society."—
American Agriculturist.
TOO MUCH USD.
The desire to own a very large farm is nat
ural, but often proves unwise in its results.
When a man wishes to practise a mixed hus
bandly, and his present acres are too few and
unsuitable, it is doubtless wise to annex more
territory. Neighbor Jones has twenty acres
of meadow land, which is suitable only for
hay, or grain, or hoed crops. But as he finds
a small dairy would be profitable, and sheep
wonld bring in good returns, it would be ad
visable for him to buy several acres of rolling
or hilly land adjoining. But this accomplish
ed, let him stop, and be careful to buy no
more than he actually needs for his special
purpose. For, this new land will have to
pay taxes, will have to be fenced, and may
need expenses laid out upon it. At any rate,
it will add to his cares, and perhaps will
bring in no adequate return.
We know a farmer who, ten years ago,
owned 190 acres, and was doing very well;
he now owns five hundred, and is worse off
than before. And why? Because this large
farm is a great bill of expense to him; he can
not afford to keep it up in good condition,
and it hangs a millstone of care abont his
neck. His wife and children, both sons and
daughters, are obliged to work hard to keep
the great machine a-rnnning. We presume
his boys declare they will leave home as soon
as they are old enough; and the girls say they
will marry farmers. Neither sons nor daugh
ters are educated as they desire to be; tbey
cannot be spared for this from work on the
big farm.
Now we declare that such a farm is a curse
to its possessor and his family, and an injury
to the whole agricultural interest. If tha 1
man wants to save himself and his household,
he should sell at least one half of his land,
improve the remainder to make it more pro
ductive, release his children from bondage,
and try to make his home a place of comfort.
He will live longer, lay up as good a proper
ty, and will train up a more intelligent and a
happier family.— Am. Agriculturist,
WORK. XX THE HOKTICCLTOtAL DE
PARTMENT.
The time for planning has well nigh passed,
and the lengthening and milder days indicate
that work may now soon begin in earnest. If
there be any who intend to plant, and have
not ordered their trees, or who intend to sow
and have not yet looked after their seeds, w'e
counsel them to do it forthwith. Do not or
der every novelty that is advertised or noticed
in the papers, bat let the main selections,
whether for fruit, vegetables, or flowers, be
of established sorts, with only a few of the
newer things for a trial. Better plant a dozen
sorts of apples or pears, known to succeed in
your neighborhood, than fifty sorts known
oaly by report We do not at all object to
the trial of newthings.but encourage those who
have the means to teat them, and are ready
to pay any price for a novelty. But to those
who wish trees for fruit, vegetables for the
table, and flowers for enjoyment, and whose
space and means are both limited, we advise
caution and moderate investments in unknown
things.—American Agriculturist.
WOSHIHfI THE ttROVJTO WHILE IT IS
WET.
The temptation is often great, to use a fair
month lor the preparation of the soil for crops
before the water is sufficiently dried off, or
drained oat of it, to warrant its being stirred
at all. Thus the gain of forty-eight hours
in time is often a serious detriment to the
field for the entire season. Light sandy loams
are not injured in this way, but every clayey
loam is, and as a general rale, so is any soil
which ever dries in lamps. The plow presses
the furrow slices into clods, which often dry
like pressed bricks, and the treading of the
teams in harrowing makes bad worse, though
the harrow tears them up somewhat. Even
heavy loam may be worked into a light, po
rons, warm seed-bed if in proper condition
for plowing before being worked— Ameriean
Agriculturist.
lAKIIU A EWE OW3I A NTBASOE
LAMB.
A. P. Trail, Trumbull Co., Ohio, writes as
follows: "When yon find a ewe with a dead
lamb bleating piteously and mourning over
it? if you wish to make her adopt another,
"ft-rL the ewe, milk her own milk upon the
lamb, then removing the dead oke out of her
sight, step back ont of the way and witness
the joy oi the mother at the supposed restor
ation of her offspring.— Am. Agriculturist.

on a thoroughly legitimate basis, devoid of all at
tempts at speculation. Their property comprises
six (6) separate, distinct, Silver-bearing Ledges
or Lodes in San Antonio Mining District, Nye

PALESTINE and MACEDON LEDGES, and the prop
erty of the Company consists of an original loca
tion of 1,000 feet along the course of each vein, or
a graad total of SIX THOUSAND FEET OF
MINIMI(J GROUND. The Secretary of the Com
pany has visited these mines in company with
several experienced miners and mining engineers,
and given them a thorough examination. Full
particulars in regard to their inexhaustible wealth
and resources will be furnished on application at
the Principal Office,
809 CHESTNUT ST., PHILADELPHIA,
where also can be seen the richest cabinet of sil

of ore from the mines. As soon as the working
capital of the Company is secured, the erection of
permanent and efficient reduction works will be

THE
NEW YORK TRIBUNE.
1866-
Oor most momentous, arduous struggle baring
resulted in the triumph of American Nationality,
the utter discomfiture and overthrow of Secession
and Slarory, THE TRIBUNE, profoundly rejoicing
in this result, will labor to conserve the legitimate
fruits of this grand, benignant victory by render
ing Liberty and Opportunity the common, heri
tage of the whole American People now and ever
more.
Discountenancing all unmanly exultation over
or needless infliction of pain or privation on the
upholders of the lost cause, it will insist on the
earliest possible restoration of the Southern States
to their former power and influence in our Union
on the basis of All Rights for All their People.
It will labor in hope to prove that the substitu
tion of Free for Slave Labor must inevitably and
universally conduce to the increase of Industry,
Thrift, Prosperity and Weal Hi. so that the South,
within the next ten years, musr look back amazed
on her long persistence in a practice so baleful as
the ehattelizing of Man.
Education, Manufactures, the Useful Arts, Ac.,
Ac., throughout every portion of our country, hut
especially throughout the sections hitherto devoid
ot them, believing that every good end will there
by be subserved and the interest of every useful
and worthy class promoted.
It will urge the Protection of Home Industry
by discriminating duties on Foreign Products im
ported, with a view to drawing hither the most
capable and skillful artificers apd artisans of Eu
rope, and the naturalizing on our soil of many
branches of production hitherto all but confined
to the Old World, while it would strengthen and
extend those which have 'already a foothold
among us.
It will give careful attention to progress and
improvement in Agriculture, doing its best at
once to bring markets to the doors of our farmers
and teach them how to make the most of the op
portunities thus afforded them.
It will devote constant attention to Markets, es
pecially for Agricultural Products, with iutent to
save both producer and consumer from being vie
tlrnized by the speculator and forestaller.
And, giving fair scope to Current Literature, to
the proceedings of Congress, and to the general
News of the Day, it hopes to retain its old patrons
and attract many new to bear them company.
We rarely employ traveling agents, ns so many
impostors are habitually prowling in the assumed
capacity of solicitors for journ-Us. We preferthat
