Manure--The Winter Crop
The industrious and thoughtful Farmer
always finds something to occupy li!s hands
and his thoughts. Each season of the year
has its claims upon him, and Winter has
no exception. The great Winter crop is
Manure, and too little attention has been
paid to thisi it is the mother of all other
Crops antkle.serves special attention. The
forest trees have produced a good crop of
leaves; the Autumn frosts and winds have
brought them to the ground; there they
lay fur the farmer to take up and convey
to some outhouse or shed to be used in
bedding stables; they contain a large per
tentage of potash; just what the Summer
crops will be glad to find. The ordinary
Winter business of the farmer does not
call for much exercise of his team, and if
he has several horses most of them may be
entirely idle. In soil :cases it is an ex
cellent plan to have a team hauling muck
for •use;•in the stables and sheds. If there
is no swamp in the neighborhood, the set
'dings at the bottom of dry ponds or sunk
en spots at the foot of hills, will furnish
excellent material for composting with
stable manure. The carcasses of all ani
mals dying upon the farm should be cov
ered with a foot or more of muck or earth,
which will absorb the gases from,their de
cay, andifuinish valuable fertilizing
ma
terials. Ditches are t 3 be opened and the
banks hauled to some convenient place to
snake compost. A Farmer's success in
growing Summer crops will be measured
by his success in making a good winter
crop of manure.
Now the best way to apply the manure
crop is another question which the farmer
should decide. If it is to be applied to
the next corn crop, it should be drawn to,
and spread on the ground as it is made.
This costs little or nothing • the team is
idle and so is farmer or hired man. A lit
tle exercise will be useful to both man
and team and may be used in this way to
advantage. There twill be plenty of time
to do. this while the ground is bare; then
go a sleighing when the ground is covered
kith snow. Thus the time may be nicely
divided between duty and pleasure.
The manure crop is not to sell, and con
vert immediately into cash, but is none
the less valuable on that • account. It is
the basis on which to make other crops
readily convertible into cash, and he who
has a good crop of manure and properly
applied it is pretty - sure of having other
good crops to sell: Farmers should do
more thinking,—have more conversation
with others of their profession. "Iron
sharpeneth iron," and some minds rust for
want of being rubbed against other minds,
in social conversation. Let nothing rust ;
keep your ideas, and your impliments
bright and clear.—A. M., in American
Stock Journal. -
Economy of Long Furrows,
A German agricultural journal observes
that farmers usually pay little attention
to the length of the furrows to be plowed
in a field, and yet great waste of time and la
bor is the necessary consequence of unsuit
able arrangements in this respect. The
turning of the plow and the commencing
of a new furrow requires more exertion in
the plowman and the team than continued
work on a straight line, and how great
may really be the loss of time from fre
quent interruptions in short turns, may be
shown by the following calculations : In a
field 225 feet long, W hours out of 10 are
spent in redirecting the plow, with a length
of 575 feet, 4 hours,are sufficient for the
purpose, and when the plow can proceed
without interruption for 800 feet, only
al hours of the daily working time are
consumed. Hence the rule to mako the
furrows as long - as circumstances will ad
mit.
Fresh Eggs
A correspondent says : The way to have
fresh eggs at all seasons or the year, and
the only way I know of, is to have a breed
of hens that will lay in the winter as well
as in the summer. In order to acarn
plish this ; 1. Get the hens. 2. Keep them
well; give them a variety of food—pound
ed bone in the winter to take the place of
gravel in the summer. 3. Give them warm
roosting places ; a hen that is kept poor
and cold and half frozen every night will
not lay an egg the next day. A good hen
is like a grist mill ; if we expect big grists
we must fill the hopper. 4. Hatch out ear
ly pullets to lay in the fall while the old
hens are moulting, as they will atop laying
for a few days during this process, and
mostly pullets over winter, as they will lay
more eggs the first year than the second
year, and so on. There is scarcely a day
in the whole year that I do not bring fresh
eggs from the barn to the house.
Harvesting Corn ,
Colonel Harris says, in the last number
of the Agriculturist : "I believe corn will
yet be harvested as we harvest wheat—cut
with . a reaper, bound into- bundles of a
convenient size for pitching, and then
thrashed or husked by a big machine
driven by ten horses or a steam engine. It
must be powerful enough to take in a bun
dle at a time, strip of the cars and husk
them, and the stalks as they pass through
'can be cut up and elevated by a straw car
rier. I believe in less than ten years we
shall see hundreds of such machines trav
eling from farm to farm as threshing ma
chines now do, and we shall wonder how
we ever got along without them."
WE have read that "it is easier to farm
well than ill." If this be so, there is a
peculiarity connected with farming belong
ing to no other pursuit. Facts are against
.any such teaching. Reason, too disap
proves it. On the contrary, it is as diffi
cult to farm well. Farming m ust be learn
ed, and it is only the accomplishedand ex
perienced farmer who can say, 'With a
good season I shall have a good crop, but
anyhow I shall have a fair crop." When
farming is comparatively independent of
the seasons for its results. then alone is it
perfect : and in what condition must a farm
be to arrive at this security ? A farmer
knows it has not been an easy business for
him, not is it the result of chance or ta
king things as they come, but quite the
contrary.—.thattlasand Home.
WOOD ASHES FOR WHEAT.-A sub
,eriber sends us the following as his ex
perience in usinr , wood ashes, viz : that in
quantities of only eight bushels per acre,
they have a marked effect ; that they push
the wheat forward several days, thus get
ting it ahead of that critical period when
it is so apt to beattacked by rust, thatthey
strengthen the stem and increase its solidi
ty. All of which, and much more, we can
readily indorse. In fact ashes are an ex
cellent application for all crops, and espe
cially for an orchard.—American agricul
turalist. t.
A MAN who is not smart enough to run
a store is not smart enough to run a farm.
Farmers are not to bo made out cf,what is
left after lawyers, doctors, ministers and
merchants are sorted and picked out.

T HE NEW YORK TRIBUNE FOR
1871.
Through struggle and suffering, at the cost
of multiform agonies, bereavements, devastation, the
American Idea embodied in the preamble to our Dithers'
Declaration of Independence approaches its complete re
alization. The noble, inspiring assertion that "all men are
created equal," and endowed by their Creator with inalieu
able rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of bappiness,is
no longer a glittering generality, a poet's fancy, a philos
opher's speculation, but the recognized base of our politi
cal fabric. The benign Revolution, which dates from the
Boston Massacre of 1170, ands its logical completion, Just
one century later, in the XYth Amendment, which gives
to the equal political and civil rights of every man born or
naturalized in our Republic the shield and defense of the
Federal Constitution. The billows of Caste and Privilege
may roar and rage around that rock, and may transiently
seem on the point of washing it away; but Its foundation.'
aro deep laid and steadfast, and the breakers of Reuctiou
and Slavery are burled against and dash their spray over
tin vale.
We do not underrate the fivers of Prejudice and Aristoc
racy. We do not forget that a very large minoriy of the
Anierican People still hold in their inmost hearts that
Slacks have no rights which Whites are bound to respect.
We fully appreciate the desperation wherewith all the war
ring elements 14 hatred to Republican achievement will be
combined and hurled against the battlements of Republi
can ascendency of 1£72. We do not doubt that local suc
cesses, facilitated by Republican feuds and dissmutions, will
inspire the charging host with a sanguine hope of victors - ,
suck as nerved it to put forth its_ utmost strength in the
earlier stages of the contents of 1864 and MSS. Yet our
faith is clear and strong that the American People still
bless God that, on the red battle-fields of our late Civil
War, the Union was upheld and Slavery destroyed, and
will never consciously decide that theprecima blood there
on poured out was lavished in vain.
THE TRIM. believes in the p;osecation of the great
struggle Ly legitimate means to beneficent ende. To State
Sovereignty, it opposes indissoluble National Integrity; to
Slavery fur Blacks, Liberty The All; to Proscription, En
franchisement; to Popular Ignorance, Universal Educa
tion; to intensity and eternity of Wrathful Hate,nniversa
and invincible Good Will. It would fain do it utmost to
hasten the glad day when the South shall vie with the
North in exultation and gratitude over the disappearance
of the last trace or taint of that spirit which impelled Man
to exult in the ownership and chattelhood of his fellow Man.
Profoundly do we realized that the contest is not yet
ended—that Millions mourn, more or less publicly, the
downfall of the Slaveholdcrs' Confederacy, and rear their
children to hate those by whose valor and constancy its
overthrow was achieved. If we ever seem to differ essen
tially from other Republicans, our conviction that unique-
Dimity is never weakness, that vengeance is never politic,
and that devils are not cant oat by Beelzebub, must serve
to explain alleged eccentricities whose perfect vindication
we leave to Time and Reflection.
GLASS,
:HE TRIBUNE has been, is, and must be, a zealous advo
cate of Protection to Home Industry. Regarding habitual
idleness as the greatest foe to human progress, the bane of
human happiness, we seek to win our countrymen in
masses from the ensnaring lures of Speculation, of Tra.ffic,
and of always overcrowded Professions, to the tranquil
paths of Prdductive Industry. We would gladly deplete
our overcrowded cities, where thoueands vainly jostle and
crowd in misguided quest of ultemething to Do." to cover
prairies and plains wtth colonies absorbed in Agriculture,
Mechanics and Manufactures, and constantly projecting
into the blank, void wilderness the bornes and the works
of civilized Man. Holding the Protection of Rome Indus
try by discriminating duties on imported Wares and Fab
rics essential to the rapid, beneficient diffusion of Produc
tion in all its phases and departments, and so to the in
struction of our people in all the gainful arts of Peace, we
urge our countrymen to adhere to and uphold that policy
in undoubting faith that the true interest, not of a class or
a section, but of each section and every useful class, is
thereby subeerved and promoted.
Tim Taninaz aims to be preeminently a Newspaper. Its
correspondents traverse every State, are present on evert'.
important battle-field, are early advfeed of every notably
Cabinet decision, observe the proceedings of Congress, oe
Legislatures, and of Conventions, and report to us by tele
graph all that seems of general interest. We have paid
for ono day's montentone advices from Europe by Cable
far more than our entire recePflike fur the issue in whith
those a..: ices reached our readers. If lavish outlay, an
sleeping vigilance, and unbounded faith in the liberality
and discernment of the reading public, will enable us to
males a journal which has no superior in the accuracy.
variety, and freshness of its contents. Tan TRIBUNE shall
be each a journal.
_
To Agriculture and the saboervient arts, we have de
voted, and shall persistently devote, more truant and
space than any of our rivals. We aim to make Tun
Wtroctr Truro= such a paper that no farmer can afford
to do without, however widely his politica may differ from
oars. Our reports of the Cattle, Horse, Produce and Gen
eral Market., are so full and accurate, our essaya in elucid
ation of the farmer's calling, and our regular reports of
the Farmers' Club and kindred gatherings, aro so inter
esting, that the poorest farmer will find therein a mine of
suggestion anti counsel, of which he cannot remain igno
rant with positive and serious loss. We sell Tar 'WEEK=
to Claba for less than its value in dwelling. for wastepa
per, and, though its subscription isalready very large, we
believe that a Half Million more farmer. will take It when
ever it shall be commended to their attention. We ark
our friend. everywhere to aid us in to commending it.
