Agricultural Editor 1 ! Table.
Tits SPICIEST AND CBISPBST little agri
cultural pa]>cr we know is the Farm
Journal published monthly in Philadel
phia, by WILBBT AT*INBOX. The editor
sccniß to hare hia own idea* of thinga
generally, and has a sharp, terse way of
putting them that is quite refreshing.
To be brief, the paper is well edited in
all its departments, and printed in firat
ratc style on first-rate paper, which is
more than we can say of some of our
more pretentious contemporaries, and
as it is published at 50 cents per year,
we cannot see why it should not have
one hundred thousand subscribers in
Pennsylvania alone—and we wish it
may.
TII* SBMI-WBBKLY EDITION of the Few
York WorLl is a paper which commends
itself to every farmer who desires to
take a city paper. As a newspaper it is
complete and reliable, containing the
latest news on all subjects and from all
sections of the world, put in the most
readable shape. As a family paper it is
net to be excelled, devoting a large
portion of its immense sheet to select
family reading of the best character.
In addition to these it has a large and
exceedingly well-edited Agricultural
Department, at all times replete with
seasonable information and suggestions.
It bas found its way regularly to our
table for years, and is among the most
welcome of our newspaper visitors.

How Oan we Make Farming Pay ?
Socrates i credited with having said
that "Agriculture is the source of health,
strength, plenty and riches, ami of a
thousand sober delights and honest
pleasures ; the mistress and school of
sobriety, temperance, justice, religion,
and, in short, of all virtues, civil and
military." While we are glad to believe
that in most of this Socrates was right,
wa sadly fear that in the mind of the
average farmer of to-day, compelled to
raise money for taxos, insurance and
interest, by the sale of wheat at ninety
oenta per bnshol, corn at fifty, barley at
sixty, oats at twenty, beef at four cents
per pound, and pork at three, there is
a tendency to skepticism as to the old
gentleman's wisdom in financial mat
ter*. W believe that a majority of the
farmer* of Centre county would find a
deaf of comfort and satisfaction in the
assurance that they, could io this first
week of "The glad new year," sit them
down, and conclusively show by the
figures that their farming operations for
the part year had netted them three
per cent, on their investment. Surely
this is not making very rapid progress
towards "riches." Tbe question with
the average farmer of the period is not
"Can I get rich at farming!" but "Can
I live at it?" This is the truth, hut
should it be tbe truth ? Is there any
necessity for the continuance of such a
state of affairs? Cannot farming be
made to pay, and verify the wisdom of the
grand old scholar and philosopher when
he calls it the "souroe of riches ?" We
confess our inability to sffirm that it
( can. We have no sovereign halm to
offer for the woes of the toiling, plodding
farmer, who, at tbe close of each year,
finds himself, after all his planing and
labor, all bis sowing and reaping, but
little, if any, nearer the goal of his
ambition— I "riches." And yet it seems
to us that farming should pay. It is not
requiring very much of the business
which lias at the foundation of all busi
ness, and the failure of which, for a
tingle round of seasons, would oall the
world to a permanent halt, to demand
that it should yield a fair and remuner
ative return to him who diligently pur
sue* it If we ask the average agricul
tural writer and trader how to aoeom- 1
niiah this. he will answer, "You must
grow larger and better crope." The i
evident answer to this is, we already ,
have crops too large and too good. Our i
crops are, and for the past year or two
have been, greater, in the aggregate,
than we can sell at paying prices. Over
production is our moot serious evil, and
every effort of every farmer to "grow
larger and better crops" only increases
it Will it not be better for us to try
end ItMtn the coet qf production. Ninety
cents per bushel for wheat is a discour
aging price for the former who raises
the average amount per acre at the
average expenditure, but It is a blessing
to the laborer who has to pay for it with
labor at svventy-five cents per day, and
If we oan lessen the cost of producing
it to such a figure as will make ninety
cent# pay us a handsome profit, it will
be better for *ll concerned to continue
producing it in such quantities M to
keep it at or near that flgure. (lorn at
fifty cen \s per busiiei is not good for us
who have it to sell, but it is good for
those who have it to buy, nnd if we can
so manage as to produce it for twenty-
Ave cents per bushel, it will bo good for
us. Can this lie dono? Perha|>s so,
perha]>s not, but the point we wish to
illustrate is that the difference between
profit and loss in farming depend* upon
our ability to reduce the eoet of our crop*,
rather than upon increased production.
It seems to us that in this, if at all, may
be found the answer to our query, "How
can wo make farming pay ?" Hut we
write more for tlie purpose of stimulat
ing thought upon the subject than to
give a didatic answer to the question.
This is the farmer's leisure season, if he
has any, and now is the time when tho
prudent and careful man is making his
plans and completing his arrangements
for the work of the coming years, and it
is well worth while for him to consider
well our question. In future numbers
we shall give tho thoughts of some of
our lending fnrmers on the subject, and
tn the meantime shall be glad to hear !
from such of our rendcis as have given j
it nltention.
Transplanting Balls of Earth-
The papers are discussing the com
parative merits and objections of re
moving trees by carrying with them
large halls of earth. Allusion is
made more particularly to securing
frozen balls by cutting a circular
trench around the tree, and loosen
ing and removing it when the enclos
ed mass of earth is frozen solid,
in the application of this mode,
there is not enough discrimination
made between deciduous trees, there
is little advantage in removing balls
of earth on the roots. For large
trees of this class, dig circular
trench, and then, tint with a hoc or a
spade remove all the earth not in
contact with the roots; next, with a
steel rake, comb the earth carefully
outwards, and throw it out of the
trench. This will give a mass of
partly denuded roots larger than
would lie practicable if all the earth
on were to be lifted and conveyed.
Hut with evergreens the case is en
tirely different. Those kinds which
are the most diltlcult to transplant,
will IK- sure to die if the roots are
denuded, and as sure to live if a
good lm.ll of earth is conveyed with
them. In our own experience, as we
have had occasion to remark before,
such trees as the white pine ami the
hemlock, taken from the border* of
woods, all perished if the roots were
laid bare, ami all lived if plenty of
earth was taken, with scarcely an ex
ception out of many hundreds.—
CWnby Gentleman.
Meal and Hay for Fattening Lire Stock.
"An old Farmer" who has been ac
customed to feed ami fatten animals,
has recorded a small item of practice
in regard to feeding raw meal. He
writes:
"My practice in fattening beef and
swine, as well as feeding cows for
milk, has been to use boiling water
on as much meal as would not make
the animal's bowels move too freely,
at night and in the morning; when
the mush is cool, give it to the cow
or pig. In covering the meal with
boiling water in this way, the starch
of the grain is dissolved, and the la
tent nutritive pro|>ertius extracted,
and the animal receives the entire
nutriment of the grain. I have for
two year* past fatted two ordinary
sized cows, feeding only meal and
hay, and only 800 |>oundseach of the
former, and each yielded upwards of
40 lbs. of rough tallow. Salt was
given once a week, nud occasionly a
tablespoonful of wood ashes. In my
experience 100 pounds scalded and
fed as above i* equal to 200 pounds
fed dry.
"Live stock do not, in eating dry
meal, receive more tban one-half of
the goodness of the meal," or there
would not be so many farmer* as he
knows "who feed from 4 to 8 quarts
of meal a day to one beef creature,
till they feed from 7 to 10 cwt. of
meal to one animal. Those farmer*
never slaughter an ordinary sized
beef that yields upward of 40 pounds
of rough tallow."— l'rartieal Farmer.
Shelter for Stock.
For a permanent fodder for a
term of years the farmer can hardly
And anything more economical than
a certain proportion of pine boards.
The proportion of the food which is
consumed in keeping the tempera
ture of the body up to a certain point
will of course vary with the tempera
ture of the air; the expenditure for
tight stables is not all chargeable to
one year's operations, but the food
consumed in keeping up animal heat
is all gone and no equivalent render
ed in return. It is probable that the
(decreased) proportion of food con
sumed by well sheltered stock is not
exact in proportion to the amount
formerly used up in making the ani
mal heat, but the difference is ex
pended in making the weight and
condition of the animal. Careful
experiments, made in England and
Germany, prove beyond a doubt that
the investment of money in good
warm stables pays as good an inter
est as almost any other on the farm,
and this, in u pecuniary view, is a
powerful argument.
Oare of Horses.
Horses need especial care this time
of year, with a view to having them
in good plight for the plow. As u
general rule fanners feed but twice a
day, during winter, and it is enough,
unless heavy work is demanded of
them. Hut by the (lrst of Mnrch
they should lie fed a little the third
time. Many fnrmers commit a mis
take here. They will work their
horses hard lYom the first, while still
unprepared from the winter's inac
tion and feed, and then give them a
large feed at noon. Not being used
to it, thin extra feed does them a pos
itive injury. If we commence giving
a little grain three times a day, the
the last of February, increasing
gradually, by the time the plow is
ready to start, the horse will be ready
too. We regard this as very import
ant as good feed. Use the curry
comb and brush freely. If those
you have are about worn out, get
new ones. You may think it econo
my to use the old ones, but it is
not. Hub the horses down well at
night as well as in the morning. Be
careful not to let the shoulders get
sore, when first put to work, as they
frequently will if not looked after.
Attention to all these little details
may save your horse from being laid
up at a time when you would feel it
severely.
A Cheap and Novel Bmoke-Houie.
An exchange gives the following
directions from a Florida corres
pondent for making a cheap and
elllcicnt smoke-house. I >ig u narrow
pit from twelve to eighteen inches
deep, throwing the earth all oue side.
At the )>ottom of this pit dig a trench
of sufllcient length to hold one or two
joints of stove-pipe at auch an angle
as will bring the end away from the
pit to the surface of the ground.
Over the end of the pipe set a large
cask; remove both beads and lnk
up the earth so that no smoke can
escape from the tiottom. Hang the
hams to lie smoked ou round sticks,
placed across the top of the cask.
Throw a cover over the sticks that
will leave space enough for draught
to let the smoke pass freely. liuiid a
Are of corn-cobs or sawdust in the
pit and the work is accomplished.
SAVING SEED CORN. —"To save
seed corn successfully in a cold cli
mate, you should not keep it in a
warm place, or especially where it is
warm but a part of the time, as there
is danger that the changes of temper
ature may destroy the genninative
power. Continued warmth is nlmost
conducive to decomposition, which
will destroy the life of the seed. Corn
and similar seeds are best kept in a
dry, cool room, where the tempera
ture i uniform. When your seed
from the Small pile kept over the
living-room,' failed to germinate, the
cause was probably due to tsolh
dampness and warmth, which incited
incipient decay."
TIMELY TOPICS.
Knowledge is power. It is as much
so to the farmer as to any other claaa.
Resolve that yon will be an intelli
gent, thoroughgoing farmer ; and that
you do your part towards maktftg
farming pay.
Lira which are apt to develop
on stock thin in flesh soon after
housing may be kept at bay by Se
quent dusting of sulphur.
"Temper the wind to every animal,"
says some Society-for-lhe-prevcntion
of-cruclty-to-animal* man. We say
keep it from them entirely.
Watering troughs should be clean
ed out often, as cattle are 44 very par
ticular," and will often suffer from
thirst a long time rather than drink
filthy water, and thua retard their
fattening.
Stormy days can be spent at home
more profitably than elsewhere, at
this season of the year, looking after
the stock and occupying leisure time
in reading the Agriculture Depart
ment of the DEMOCRAT, and other
good agricultural papers.
Every fanner should look about
his premises and ascertain what jobs
can be performed conveniently and
with satisfactory advantage during
the winter months. In mild weather
let stones and sticks be removed from
meadows and other fields.
STRAWBERRIES. —Anything which
will shade the ground and plants
without packing heavily ami closely
on the plants will answer for winter
protection. Light, strawy manure,
if nothing better Is to hie had, not
only gives protection, but also en
riches the soil, but the covering over
the crown of the plants must be very
slight or they will be smothered.
Evergreen boughs, where available,
give the very best winter protection
to strawberry plants.
FARMERS' HOME-MADEMEASURES.

deep, holds one quart.
A box 2 by 8£ inches and 8 inches
deep, holds one peck.
A box 16 by lnches lnches and 8
inches deep, holds one bushel.
A box 84 by 16 inches ami 88
inches deep, holds one barrel.
Go to work and make some during
the winter leisure, ami have them
ready for use when seeded.
