Will ron allow me to projMHtnd one or
two question* for vonr con Ride rati on.
which have hoen itiilucnd by Trailing in
the agricultural department of the
Weekly Tribune of Jan. 8, some ex
periments by a Peunsylvanniii farmer
in regard to liming land. Says this
wmspondmt: "I have found exactly
the same results on strip# of land ttvut
ed with lime and WIKH! ashes alternate
ly." Now, then, lime IKM I iff an alkaline
substance, or largely so, wiUuot plants, j
in the absence of potaah in the soil,
rnakv: use of lime as a substitute, and
use it with eqwal affeot. Common salt |
being aliont one-half sola, an alkali,
will not those two substances, lime and
salt, used on land fully eupply the
place of potaah?—[W. P. Gates, Wind
nam Co., Conn.]
Reply S. K . JOAIMOW, author of "IRte
CW|M rtsl
The fad that lime and wood ashes may pro
duce the same effect on a eoil, is due to l tie
fact that they are commonly almost identical in
composition. Shell-lime and I.me hunied from
many limestone* contain. independently of mat
ters 111 tioduoed I v fuel, lees I'IS'I coo |HI .
of other iiigredietils. lameetoues are, how
ever. often admixed with clay, sand, or carbon- j
ate of magnesia and the impure lime obtained
from litem is, after slacking and exposure,
quite like jow.W oooii-,r -H< t in all r**etiUal
points of composition. I'ttleacbed wood-alie
contain. of course, some 10 to IS per cent, of
potaeli i,as carUm-ste chiefly lin addition. Tlie
action of leached itsaes must, therefore, t* 1
nearly that of ordinary lime when the latter is
nee,! after air-alaktug.'or when it is applied in
light doses or OU soils whose quality does not
admit .if much altsranun by the chemical ener
gies of quicklime.
Mr. Hates' first question. via : whether. "in
the ahsence of potash from tlie soil. plants
will not make use of Ume as a substitute, and
use it with equal affect," is one which can be
answered with the most positive certainty, no!
The numerous and exact experiments which
have been carried out with extraordinary labor
and paTieivoe by Pnne® Salm-HorUiear. Sachs.
Knotv and raauv others of the Herman agru-ul
tural chemists during the laet *) years, have
demonstrated that Ume and potash are gener
ally indispensable to phuit grow th. These ex
periment* have altogether failed to give any in
dication that one of these alkalies can te sub
atituted for the other in the plant. The evi
dence on that subject cannot I* riven in tore
than book-hauls. being contained in a Urge
number of detailed journal articles It is to be
regretted that none of theee are to be found m
an English dress. The .inly fairly a.lequaie
account of the results of these investigations is
contained in "How Crops Grow," pp. ltd te 171.
Before proceeding to the second question, it
must be remsmlwred that while Uuie cannot
take the place nor fulfill the offices of potash
in lAr p. iiu it may m certain cases take the
place of potash ut manure. If the aotl is defi
cient in potash no quantity of lime can be a
substitute for it, but if on the other baud, the
eoil be deficient not in potash absolutely, but
In available notaeh. i. in potash which la oh
tainahle or digesiible by the plant, then Ume
serve.- as a substitute for manuring with pot
ash. by making a* aiiable the potash which exists
in the'soil, but .voly m insoluble firms, plainly,
it amounts to the same thing, whether we apply
to the soil a fertiliser containing soluble iaMs--h. I
or a chemical agent which liberate# and makes
soluble the potash of feldspar, nnca, and other ;
materials that are a part of th# noil
The second question as toecnuaoa salt is an- j
twered for the most part in the foregoing para- ■
graph*. Potash is a substance for which noib- •
tng can be a substitute in the plaatt. tkxla is '
an alkali often absent from and geuswallr uc-1
eemnual to the growth of plants Evan marine
or aalt-etrwnd plants grow perfectly in absence
of soda. Just, however, as Utne may acootu- \
phsh the solution of potash in the soil and
render it attainable to vegvtatioti. in sufficient
quantity and with sufficient rapidity to make
possible the development off a crop, which
might fail in its absence, ao salt and all anhne
fertiliser* operate, and thus salt, neither of
whose ingredients is required by many crops,
sometime.- has a strikingly beneficial action '
when applied a* a fartduer." E. Wolff analyzed
samples of bock wheat raised from the same
•at) and see,!, one of which was manured with
common salt, two others with carbonate and
- nitrate of potash respectively, and one was un
manured. The unmanarivi contained In its
aah 36.4 per cent, of potash, and 4.6. of *a!';
that manured with salt contained SM.fi per cent
of |xvtaeh and three of salt. Those to which
potash-wait were abided contained 46.1 and 4X4
per cent, of potash and S 2 and S.S of eoda.
The effect of salt was to increase the propor
tion cf potash rather than that of soda.
A(tknltaral Note®.
Tlie err which we heard some time
ego that farming, aa a whole, does not
pay, has ceased, because those who .
could not make it j>aj have starved to
death or gone into some other line of
business.
If your cows est wood, we should
think it an indication that they donotget
green food enough. Give them turnips,
beets, carrots, or potatoes once a day
and see if they do not leave off eating
their mangers.
It is said that the Farmer's Club at
Avon, DL, saved 53,000 last year by pur
chasing their supplies of implements,
groceries, etc., in bulk. One of their
number acts aa agent, and is allowed a
commission of three per cent, for his
services.
The cattle of New-England and the
Middle States command the highest
price® in the markets. Three year old
steers in Maine average a value of 883 ;
in Rhode Island, $66; in Massachu
setts, $65 : In New Hampshire, $63.88 ;
in Vermont, $63; in Connecticut, $55,-
90, and in New York, $52. An average
Texas steer is worth only $11.5-4, and a
Florida steer, $1440.
The experience of each passing sea
son adds proof that corn, ss well as other
grains, can be more be more advadtage
ousl v improved by selecting the largest
ears and best-formed kernels for seed,
and by careful cultivation, and abuudant
manuring, than by taking pains to in
troduce new rarities from a distance.
Corn ia not deteriorated by long ac
climatization, bnt ia by careless husband
ry and neglect to "'select the fittest"
An old author who wrote before the >
Christain era knew how it was himself, j
and said: " I have seen seeds for a long
time selected, and with much labor cull
ed out, nevertheless to degenerate un
less the largest were year by year care- j
fully chosen by the hand."
The Money Seeded to Begin With.
I beg leave to suggest, says a Kansas
correspondent, that a man can start
comfortably on a farm in Kansas or
Nebraska on at least half the amount of
$2,500. If he has served as a soldier j
in the Rebellion he can obtain 160 acres
of land within railroad limits for noth
ing ; if a citizen, he can acquire the
same amount for S2OO, by first pre
empting 80 acres at $2.50 an acre, and
afterward homesteading the other 80.
Two hundred dollar# is sufficient to erect
a house that will be comfortable, and
amply sufficient for a time ; mine cost
SIOO, is 12x16, and ceiled within; but I
am only a single man, and allow an
extra SIOO for family accommodation.
Th# barn can easily be dispensed with ;
a wall built up of tough sod, and a roof
of boards, furnishes as comfortable a
shelter for stock as any wooden born in
existence ; is, in fact, more impervious
to onr searching winds. The roof and
woodwork of this would cost about S2O.
jA com crib would be needed ; would
about SSO : S2OO will purchase a
gooa arm team here ; from SBO to SIOO
h wage a 5 830 a 12-inch breaking-plow,
and S6O a <uple of good milch cows.
The fencing ' tem we dispense with
altogether h#-~ e ! we hare a nerd law in
force which affo.'d* far better protection
to our crops than most o{ the average
fences do. The totu of the above esti
mates is 8860, which is exclusive of the
cost of getting here, of living, _ and of
small tools, kc., but 250 P T 8300 will
amply cover these items.
Subsoil Cultivation.
My experience of thirty years iA#
more and more convinced me of the vast
importance (after drainage) of thereby
breaking the pan and disturb 1 nv the sub
soil, thus rendering it more friable and
accessible to air, water, and to the roots
of the plants, rendering it in many cases
much more capable of absorbing and re
taining the water needful for the growth
of plants, and preventing the drying up
of the crops on certain sCils in hot dry
summers. I do not mean merely pulling
points through the subsoil, but by fol
lowing in the track of the common
plough in dry weather, breaking up
and partially turning over the subsoil
without bringing to the surface, but al
lowing the top soil at the next turn of
the upper plough to fall lightly on a
broken and friable mafia, instead of on
a sort of cast-iron floor. The land
should be manured before ploughing
and subsoiling so that some of the
manure falls among the subsoiL— [Mr.

for the return of " a negro man named

Tom did pot leave his master's house !

Story of the Little Boy.
Mr. Stephens (Hon. A. H.) of Georgia
in a recent addreas at a meeting in
Alexandria for the benefit of an orphan
aj-ylum and free school of that city re- ,
lnted the following accident; " A poor
iittle boy, ou a cold night, with no hiiuao
or roof to shelter hi* head, ho paternal, '
maternal, guardian or guide to protect
or direct him cm his way, reached at
nightfall the home of a wealthy planter,
who took him in, fed and lodged him, ,
and sent him on his way with his Mess
ing. These kind attentions clic#red his
heart and inspired him with fresh oo#u#i |
age to battle with the obstacles of life, j
Years rolled; Providence lad him on, (
and he reached the legal profession, j
His hqst had died ; the cormorant* that
prey on the substance of man had form- '
ed a ©onapiracT to get from the widow 1
her estates. Hhe sent for the nearest
counsel to commit her cause to him, j
and that connsel proved to be the or- j
pban boy long before welcomed and
entertained by her deceased hnshand. I
. The Stimnltisof n warn), tenacious grati
tude was now added to the ordinary
motive connected with thp profession.
He undertook her ease with a will not
to b.i resisted ;he gained it; the widow's '
estate was secured to her in perpetuity, 1
and," Air. Stephens added, with an
emphosiaof emotion that sent an electric
thrill throughout the house, " that boy

The Same Old Horror.
When a custom once become* firmly
established, it is nearly impossible to
suddenly break it ®p. So it is with the
custom which has lo ug prevailed among
pedestrians, of walking on a railway
track, and stepping out of the way of a
train approaching on one track, direct
ly in the way of another train on tlie i
other track. This Uat is one which is
extremely easy of performance, but ex
cept to those wishing to commit suicide,
it is nearly always a very unsatisfactory
one. Two men tried it the other day,
on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad,
and must have been disagreeably aston
ished by the suddenness with which an
unexpected train proceeded to dissect
them. So many men have been killed
in precisely the same way, that every
one knows the danger of stepping on to
a railway track without looking to see if
a train is approaching. The practice
has attained the dignity of a custom in
some parts of the country, and warning
and remonstrance seem to be of no avail
against it,

apart from her at supper. The strunger
youth even went, so far as to sav that
he would marry her if she would have
him, and offered, for a substantial

away. The wager was accepted, and
also the proposal of marriage, made so
i (suddenly to her by th® young man, and
the parson called in, who soon united
the twain. Tlie sum wagered was paid
over to the hnppy bridegroom, and he
and his bride set out next day on their
marriage tour. What lends romance
to the circumstance ia the fact that the
young couple had already beou man

A Sad Story of Defalcation.
A letter from l'enn Van, N. Y., gives
tho sid result* of a defalcation and
elopement tlier*. Burns, oue of the
party , wiui for four successive tonus
i elected (kmnty Treasurer, with n family
< consisting of a wife and three children.
A short time ago he left, and shortly
i after a young lady, his wrard, also left.
It was soon after "found that Burns was
a defaulter to the amount of 5T2.000,
I and efforts were made to tlod him.
A dispatch received from San Francisco
announced that ho was there and that
|he was insane. On the 12th of Febru
ary the Sheriff and one of Burns' bonds
j men, started for San Francisco, and,
I arriwrg there on th* 20th, took Burns
Iff custody. The meeting between the
. defaulter and former friend is said to
have l>een most affrotin*. He grasped
! the hand of .Sheriff Dtatnrff knd wept
i like n child. As oon as he ronhl artieu
i late ft word he exclaimed, "I'm so glad
you have oomo ! I'm so glad yon have
j come !" He was thcu seised with cuu-
I vulsiotjs, and it was some time lie/ore
jbe was restored to reason. When he
(left Pefin Yan he wore a heavy black
j beard, reaching almost to his waist, and
! his hair was very black. Wheu arrested
! he ltad siuived off his beard and liis hair
I wna rerv gray. ll* is a man forty years
I of age, but his appearance now is that of
a man of sixty.
When the San Frsneisco officers went
to arrest Burns ftt his hotel, tho lfttter
I said to his ward, who was with biiu. "1
i tokl yon so, Cynthia; I knew they
j would find us!" and linrst into a violent
| fit of weeping.
In rest ion se to inquiries made of him
at San Francisco by Sheriff Ibtiturff, a
Ito frhvre he had* been since ho left,
Buffo, stated that he aud his ward loft
N*w York for Central America, where
Itifengagod in mercantile pursuits. The
knowledge of his erimos, however, dis
him for business, and he deter
mined to travel, thinking his mind
inigTit bo quieted of his guilt. lie went
to England, Ireland, Wales and other
European countries, but could enjoy
nothing. From Europe he went on a
voyage to the Handwieh and Barbados
I stands, and finally, on the 10th of
January last, landed In San Francisco
a heart-broken, cheerless mm. In all
his wanderings lie was accompanied by
1 lux ward, and was haunted continually
' bv the tltonght thnt ho was pursued.
He had ft perpetual longing to retnru
to Penn Yan and givo lnraself tip, but
was restrained by the woman. lie said
that he never ceased to believe thnt he
would, sooner or later, be apprehauded,
aud Arrived at that atage that he was
impatient of tlie delay in jnatloe ovpr
k'taking him. The happiest moment lie
experienced since he left Eenn Tan was
; that wheu he HAW Sheriff Hinturff enter
hi* ocoi, and knew that at lAstth* drend
. fill buapeuoe was over. He told the
1 Sheriff that ho could scarcely wait to
reach home, so that he might confess
his crimes, receive his punishment, and
again commence a now life*
The Krannell Case.
Tiyee weeks wore wasted bv the Court
of tjlycr end Terminer in the Besnnell
murder trial. The Jury came intoCowrt
after having l>*ou out more than twenty
four hours, with the tyisertion that they
sswr no probability of agreeing upou a
verdict. Judge itnuly Ui-rett|ti dia-
I'hnrgsd 111 cm, end sunt Hcimm-ll back
to the to take his chance of
another trial after a few more months
delay. There wa no serious dental of
the "killing. The mam defense waa
IJ iced upou the metaphy steal question
f uiortd niftuinty, which was most elab
{ oraUtly Winked out, as though its main
! object was to produce iiiHauity in the
i jury. Fo many months the prisoner
sought the life of Dnnohtie, shooting at
him three or four times aud wounding
I loui once before, lie aroused htm of
I killing las brother, Florence Bctumrll,
!tu a fight two years ago, where
the two Hcamirtls attacked Donohue
slut ethers in a political quarrel.
Front that lune the prisoner hits
frequently displayed great emotion
when los brotliei was mentioned, or
when he chanced to tneet Donohue,
whom I*< hu.l rv|teatedly threatened to
kill, lie showed the Court a sample

duced t*iy favorable impression. Judge

The Modoc lava Red.
Jesse Applegute, writing to the Port
land (fYrngwnj Jtultetin, gives thefollow
iug deacrijition of the lava tied in which
the hostile Modoo Indians are now
iuUrcneiied :
The stronghold of the Modoc Indians
is s " pedrwgAl" ol Uie most enteusive
and elaborate description an irrgular
volcanic surface of booalt,trachyte, Ac.,
more or bom broken info upheavals from
below, and emektHl and fiasured in the
process of cooling. It occupies, with
but few intervals, nearly a hundred
square tuihov. II you can imagine a
smooth, solid sheet of granite, 10 miles
square, rmd 500 feet thick, covenog re
sistli-'-s mines of gunpowder, scattered
irregular interval* under it ; that these
mines are exploded simullaneoualy,
rendering th* whole field into rectangu
lar masses, from the size of a match
box to that of s church, heaping these
masse* very high in some places, and
leaving deep rhnsma in others. Follow -
ing the exp!>oft. the whole thiug is
placed in one of Vulcan's crucibles, and
rented up fo a point wheu tlie whole
begin* fo fuse and run together, and
Uien sufietied to cool. The roughness
of the upjwr surface remaius as the ex
plosion left tt. while nl! below is honey
combed by the crocks and crevtees
csui-ed by the cooling of tho melted
rock. An Indian con, from the fop of
one of tluse kloue pyramids, shoot a
man without exjosing even so much as
an inch square of himself. He con,
without undue haste, load aud shoot a
common muzzle-loading rifle ten times
before n man can scramble over the
rocks and chasms between the slain and
slayer. If, at this terrible effiense of
life, a force dislodges him fnitu his
cover, he ha* only to drop into and
folio* aotnc subterranean passage with
which he is familiar, to gain another
ambush, from whence it will cost ten
more lives to dislodge him.
Atnerirti Field Sporl.
The wanton ih-struction of game in
thi* oountrv has led to the imssagc of
stringent sets for its protection in sev
eral .States, and a large number of
sportsmen's clubs have loeu organised
to insure their enforcement. The se
verity of the present winter renders the
stringent observance of these laws more
than ever a neccoMty. <treat nuinliers
of birds have perished of cold and hun
ger, tnd thousands have lieen driven to
the vicinitv of barns and honses, where,
instead of Wing fed end protected, they
have been tranjted bv the hundred and
*ent to market. 'The same wanton
spirit of destruction bids fair to ex
terminate the larger game on the West
ern prairies. During the last season
more than a quarter of a million of buf
faloes were lulled on the jilains for their
hide* alone, and their carcasses left to
decay. Unless our Legislatures take
this matter in hand without delay, and
pass such measures a* will prevent this
wiuifon war upon game, we shall soon
have none left fo protect.

EXPLOSION OP A I'PMP. —One would
think considerable ingenuity would be
required to make s pump explode.
Nevertheless it liaa boeu accompliidied
by an Indiana man, who built a fire
around the iron pipe of his pump, which
was frozen solidly from Uie surface of
tho ground upwards. In due course of
time his pump went off, scattering
things generally, and severely shaking
his dwelling-house, which was near by.
The ingenious Hoosier still lives to re
