DOES THE SOIL NEED BEST?
The following, from the Rural New
Yorker, meets our view exactly. 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

They are more hardy for transplanting

Potatoes, as a general thing, are crowd

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
