your own wool, as many do, take one potted
of tdean lard to ten pounds of wool, unless
the wool be colored, such as walnut brown,
then it will require a little more,

THINGS A FARMER SHOULD NOT DO.
A, farmer should not break up more land
than he can cultivate thoroughly; half-tilled
land is always growing poorer, while well
tilled 'And is constantly improving. A thrifty
and prudent farmer will not devote his sole
attention to the improvement of certain fields
on his farm, because the land is easy to work,
and let other portions of his premises go
uncultivated, and grow uothing but brash,
begs, briars and stones.
A fanner should never have more cattle,
horses or other animal stock than he can
keep in good order. AD animal in good or
der at the beginning of winter is already half
wintered. Nor should he let his cattle en
dure the chilling storniß of winter in an open
yard or field, whilst a few dollars expended
in the way of making comfortable stables
would amply repay him in saving of fodder,
and afford a greater amount of milk.
A fanner should never depend too much on
his neighbors for what he can by careful
management produce on his own land. He
should not make it a common practice to
either buy or beg fruit while he can plant
trees and cultivate them on his own ground—
nor annoy his neighbors by borrowing tools
to work with, while he can make or buy them.
"The borrower is servant to the lender.'"
A farmer should never be so immersed in
political matters as to neglect doing his va
rious kinds of work in dne season, and to
snug up matters and things for winter; nor
should he be so inattentive to politics as to
remain ignorant of those great questions of
national and state policy which will always
agitate more or less a free people.
A farmer should notbe continually borrow
ing his neighbor's uewspaper, while he can
easily save money enough, by curtailing some
little extravagance, to subscribe and pay for
one or more of his own.
A farmer should never refuse a lair price
for anything he wishes to sell. I have known
men to refuse a dollar and a half for a bushel
of corn, and after keeping it five or six
months they were glad to get a dollar for it.
I have known farmers to refuse to take a fair
marketable price for their butter, and
after keeping it three or four months they
concluded to sell it for only two-thirds
of the price which they were first offered.
"A bird in the hand is worth two in the
bush."
A farmer should not allow his wood-pile to
be reduced down to the "shorts," merely
drawing a little by pieeemeal and green
that. He must expect to encounter the sour
looks of bis wife and family, and perhaps be
compelled (in a series of lectures) to learn
that the in an who provides green wood to
burn ia the winter, has not measured the first
rules of domestic economy. Nor should he
employ some "botch" mason to build his
chimney "upside down" so that his family
will be nearly smoked oat of the house and
the walls of the room become as yellow as
saffron.
A farmer should not let his buildings look
as old as the hills, and go to decay, while he
can easily afford the means to keep them in
good repair; nor should he allow tattered
clothes aud old hats to be stuffed in the win
dows, in place of glass. If he does, he need
not be alarmed if he acquires the reputation
of a mean man, or one who tarries long
where liquor is sold by the glass.
A farmer should not be contented with
dilapidated looking fences on his farm, so as
to tempt his cattle to become unruly and des
troy bis crops, while he has plenty of oppor
tunities and materials to make or keep them
in repair.— Working Fanner.
CORN CULTURE.
A writer in the Country Gentleman gives
the result of his experiments in corn planting
as follows:
"I selected six rows side by side, and coun
ted fifty hills on each row, and marked aud
numbered each lot. It had nc treatment
previous to the shoots appearing above the
ground, save that in common with the whole
field, viz, the ground thoroughly ploughed
with a Michigan large subsoil plough, and well
rotted manure on the surface was dragged in.
"Lot No. 1 received a small handfuFof un
leached ashes to each hill. Lot No. 2 re
ceiving nothing. Lot No. 3 received a small
handful of ashes and Western plaster, mixe
before applying. Lot No. 4 reeived a like
quantity of "lime dust," Or the refuse lime,
ashes Ac., from the patent kilns. Lot No. 5
received Western plaster. Lot No. 6 the
same quantity of a compost of night soil, ash
es and lime. Each lot was harvested by it
self, and when dry weighed as follows: num
ber one, Gft lbs.: number 2, 55 lbs. ; number
3, GTJ Ls.; number 4, 52 lbs.; number 5, G2|
lbs.; number 6, lbs.
WORTH KNOWING.
Last spring I took a small quantity of seed
corn and soaked it in a solution of saltpetre,
and to test it planted five rows through the
middle of a naturally moist piece with seed
thus prepared. Now for the result: The five
rows planted with corn soaked in the saltpe
tre yielded more lhau twenty rows planted in
the usual way. The five rows were untouch
ed by the wire worm, while the remainder of
the field suffered badly from their depreda
tions, and I should judge that not a single
kernel saturated with the salpetre was touch
ed by the worm, while almost every hill in
the rest of the piece suffered more or less.
The worms are a littlekind of squeamish in re
gard to eating anything that comes in their
way; hence I wish tp lay the fact before the
agricultural reader, aud hope it will be care
fully tested the coming season, as the cost is
comparatively nothing when put alongside of
two or three acres of corn nearly ruined by
these pests. All moist lands are more or less
filled with them, and many farmers dare not
plant corn on them, for they say the wire
worm will spoil their crop: hence they will
let it lie unimproved year after year, w hen it
might be made to produce a bountiful crop.

tempts at speculation. Their property comprises
six (6) separate, distinct, Silver-bearing-Ledges

careful examination, and found to r>e perfect in
particular—of which fact the highest official en
dorsements have been obtained. The Company
