W. KELLOGG'S PATENT, which will cost you but a trifle,• and will last you your lile time. Then no further expense for Brooms. It is not made of material which is liable to break; nor does it fasten with screws. It is in no way liable to catch or tear a person's clothes, or mar furniture. It is neither too heavy, nor too light. It is less complicated, less labor to inake, and costs less than any other, and it sweeps more grace. fully. All who hare used it will recommend it as highly as myself. Srmiples can be seen at, any of the Printing Offices in Gettyshu 6 g, or at tae Keystone flonse'i and at John A.

We contemplated writing a similar article, more especially in regard to old pasture lands, but this saves us the trouble. The attention of our agricultural readers is directed to it.—E Nor Co»spiter. Our fathers in Agriculture quite gener ally held the, opinion that summer-fal lowing-greatly benefited the soil by the rest it gave. lithe land lay utterly idle through all the sea , ,on of growth, should it not recuperate its powers of produc tion? They believed it would. And this opinion prevails to some extent at the present time among farmers. But absolute rest obviously adds noth ing to the soil; no food for plants de seendA from the air above or rises from the sub-soil below. No favorable chem ical action is know a to be induced by ex posing a naked soil a long time to the el ements; on the contrary it may be ap prehended that the washing of the rain, the parching of the sun, the evaporation of the atmosphere, remove same of the volatile substances which are found h a fertile soil. Rest does not impart fertili ty, to the sands of the desert, nor are ara ble soils in a state of nature where they are increasing in fertility, ever.permit ted to be destitute of vegetable covering. The soil then does not need rest—but requires cultivation. By cultivation we mean here those physical changes which may be made. It wants deep and tho rough working, so that the roots of plants can reach every particle of soil; it needs draining, to draw off stagnant water, which:is poison to the roots of our cereals and cultivated grasses. Deep, thorough, and frequent pulverization of the- soil, though it adds nothing to the amount of plant food, will, by making it ail available to the crops, cause the land to be very productive. Then, except du ring the brief period of this thorough working, the soil should be producing, for it is by the sole,ageney of what grows upon it that the farmer can hope tp in crease the amount of plant food in his land. But is not land constantly producing crops whether of grain or grass, ex hausting, itself? Yes; if those crops are removed from the soil, and no remuner ation 'made therefor; but if the whole produce of the ground, is returned to it the amount of plant food is' increased. The soil becomes richer for the ,reason that the substance of the plant was only partly derived from the soil, but largely from the atmosphere, and while the soil receives attd n what it gave, through the decomposition of the plant, it has in ad 7, dition all that was drawn from other sources. This is the reason why the plowing under of clover, or other green crops, for manure, enriches the soil. The crops have drawn' nly part of their fertilizing components from the soil— they have gathered from the air likewise —and It is precisely this which increases the previous richness of the soil. And if all the manure which crops' will matte by passing through the animal system be returned to the soil, its fertility will doubtless, he maintained ; enough , will be returneAto replace the aslt-eonstitu ents of the plant, width alone were de rived from the earth. We conclude, then, that the soil does not need rest to render it fertile. It needs eultitation and- cropping ' not reckless', wasteful, unmethodical farm ing, but that so planned and executed as to,grow large and varied crops, and dis pose of them in such manner as to return the extracted elements of fertility to the soil. POTATOES-.-BU PT VS. SEED ENDS. We pdblished in this department, soy , eras weeks ago, an article on butt against seed ends in planting potatoes. It awa -1 keued some attention, mid will lead to 1 experiments among the potato growers of this county. Here is Another on tho 1 same subject, from the American Farmer, which is equally conclusive. The test is easily made, and if N. C's. reasoning I shall prove to be correct, a valuable 'point in potato culture will be establish- I ed. —Editor Compiler, f It%ader, have you ever tested 'the mat ter, to ascertain .which will yield the larger crop, seed or butt ends, cut so as the weights will be shunt wield. If s o , you doubtless ascertained that the butt, ends had considerably the advantage, both in quantity and quality, and were also some two weeks eviler. " - Why is this so? I answer simply becau‘ie the seed ends have more eyes and send forth a supentimadance of shoots. Some years ago, I react in aPatent Office report where a parcel of potatoes that had ueen cut three or four days, and as a con4lo - considerably shrivelled, exceed ed largely in amount a parcel, that were planted fresh. My curiosity being exci ted upon this subject, I was led to try a number of experiments in order to ascer tain the cause of this singular phenome non. Without giving a detailed history 'of my operations, I ascertained flat the cause was simply owing to the factlhat the shrivel led portion sent forth fewer tu bers. Upon this 811110 principle we can readily account why butt exceed seed cads. After this, I improved my pro duct largely, both in quantity and quali ty, by throwing out the tubers,leaving but a single stalk at a place. I have thus had seven single plants to fill a half bushel, eight would heap it, and thejoint product of two plant's weighed eleven pounds. The extra tubers can readily 49TH YEAR.-NO. 29. he transplanted and wake a fine yield. They are more hardy for transplanting than the sweet potato, and yield equally as well. Potatoes, as a general thing, are crowd ed too tnueh for u large yield. A single tuherfor every two feet square I think is sufficiently close, where the grouted- is rich, and I am not certain but a greater distance would, not result advantageous ly. The most, however, that enn be done now is to thiirout your present crops. OLD APPLE .oucnA.abs. A writer itt the New Epgland Farmer elves the following account of his exper ience in renovating old orehartts "I have had two farms with old orchards where the trees were on the dee.ine.— One of them I plowed and trimmed off the old and decayed branches, and left the young sprouts to grow, and in the course of six years I bad some quite thifty trees. On the last farm I have adopted another course—that is, I have put In hogs through the spring, summer and fall, an 1 I find a saving in expense In keeping, and the advantage to-my trees far greater than anything I eoul,l do with the plow. They not only dig round the roots of the trees, b u t eat the apples that drop, and destroy the worms." GRINDING TOOLS. More t than half of all the wear and tear, breakage•and bother of dull tool , „ conies from a look of proper knowirdev and practice in grinding. All steel, howev er refined, is eompwvslpf individ ual fibres laid lengtnivise in the bar, held firmly together by cohesion, and ,in almost all farm implements of the cutting kind, the steel portion which form; the edge, iv from a section of a bar, laid in and welded to the iron longi tudinally; so that 'it is the side of the bundle of fiber g, hammered anti ground down, that forms the edge. alence by holding, on a grindstone all cdge.tools, us axes, dr.ing-knives, knives of reapers, scythes, knives of straw-cutters, Sze., in such a manner that the notion of the t..tone is eit righ t anqlev with the plane of the edge—or in plainer 'words, by hold ing the edge of the tool square across the stone, the direction of tPe li;)res will be g changed, so as to pre:Vent oho tun s in-toad of side as a cutting edge.

MIXING BiBIF.Ii "An Alliance correspondent of the Canton (O.) lecpwitww relate, the follow j112: : Some days ago there was a d.meing party given for tlw tienetitof the Feld:ins, On thcouts:ltirts of town, and several of the ladies present had little babies, whose noisy perversity required too mach at tention to allow their ma's to enjoy the "hop." A number of gallant Yong men volunteered to guard the iitfootry while the ladies engaged in the "break down." No sooner had the mothers left their cherubs in the hands of the mischievous wretches, than theystripped the darlings, changed their clothes, giving the apparel of-one to another. The dance over, the mothers each took, as she thought, her own baby, and , hurriedly left the scene of gaiety and started to their homeS sever al miles apart, being far on the way be fore the "peep-o'-day." On the following day there was a tremendous r
