THE State fair of Florida is an
nounced to open to-day, and continue
until Tuesday next. It would l>e
rather wintry for a State fair in this
country about now.
THE cattle plague, to which we
made allusion last week, seems to be
nssuming formidable proporiions,and
commands the attention of nil inter,
ested in tho prosi>erity of the coun
try. OH another page we copy from j
the Philadelphia Timee an article on 1
the subject which will prove interest
ing to all cattle owners.
PRICKLY COMFREY as a forage crop,
and the system of "ensilage" for pre
serving it and all other forage crops
in a green or "canned" state for win
ter feeding, arc novelties which are
just now attracting a great deal of
attention from leading, progressive
fanners. Ensilage consists in cut
ting fine and (lacking in air-tight pits,
all forage crops in a green state, and
seems to be looked upon with great ;
favor by those who have experiment
ed with it. Mr. R. J. Dodge, of the
American Institute Farmers' Club,
says that "no part of agriculture pos
sesses the interest for farmers that it
does. It will add at once largely to
the size of every farm, and without
more fencing, stonc-picking or weed
destroying."
THE grangers are manifesting a
great interest in legislative matters
this winter. They are now circulat
ing for signatures, through the ma
chinery of their order, a large num
ber of petitions for the enactment of
new laws, having a direct bearing
upon the material prosperity of the
farming community. Among the
legislation asked for we find the fol
lowing :
To facilitate 'the formation of co
operative association*.
Adding State Orange representation
to the State Board of Agriculture.
Requiring railroad companies to erect
fences and cattle-guards.
Requiring all commercial manure to
be accompanied by printed analyses.
To prevent the changing of school
books oftener than once in five years.
For the reduction of official salaries.
W E are indebted to Commissioner
of Agriculture Le Due for copies of
his annual re-port for 1878, and special
report No. 10, upon the condition of
crops and live stock for January,
1879.
The annual report is brief, and
mainly devoted to a review of the
work of the various divisions in the
way of chemical experiments and
analyses looking toward the increased
production of sugar, and the distri.
bution of seeds and plants. In the
matter of the distribution of seds
the Commissioner rises up in defence
of his policy of sending seeds to
farmers directly from the department,
without the intervention of Congress
men, claiming that only in this way
can intelligent reports upon experi
ments attending the introduction of
new varieties of seeds be obtained.
Under the head of "Immediate Ne
cessities of the Department, beyond
the appropriations usually made for
its ordinary workings," the commis
sioner asks for the additional sum of
from eighty-five to one hundred
thousand dollars, besides "an experi
mental farm of one thousand acres
of ground in the neighborhood of
Washington, and five experimental
stations in different sections of the
country." The statistical portion of
the report is entirely devoted to the
"imports, exports, cost and consump
tion" of tea, coffee and sugar for the
past eighty-eight years.
From the special report on the
condition of crops we learn that the
average price in this state on Decem
ber was as follows: corn, 48c; wheat,
97c; rye, 84c; oats, 27c; barley, 80c;
buckwheat, 65c; potatoes, 700 J to
bscco, 10c; and hay, $8.06. The
average prices for farm stock through-
out the State, in January, 1879, were
for horses, $85.80; mules, $97.60;
milch cows, $29.20; sheep, $3.27;
and hogs, $8.98. There is no tabula
ted statement of the condition of the
wheat crops now in the ground, but,
judging from tho correspondence,
there seems to be a decline iu this
State, ns compared with the crop of
1878 at the same date last year.
WE arc under obligations to Sena
tor Wallace for a copy of the speech
lately made in tho United States
Senate by Hon. 11. 0. Davis, of West
Virginia, on the subject of agricul
ture. Our limited space will prevent
us from publishing the s|>ccch entire,
but we mnke room for Mr. Davis'
resolution, and the lirst paragraph or
two of the very able remarks with
which he advocated its adoption:
Whereas agriculture is the foundation
of nearly all our wealth and it is mainly
through the exportation of its products
that we are paying otr our large indebt
edness. foreign and domestic, and have
the present large balanoe of trade in
our favor, and
Whereas although about one-half of
tho people of this country are engaged
in agricultural pursuits and all other
interests are dependent uj>on this, our
leading and most important interest,
commercial and otherwise, yet but little
has been done by the General Govern
ment to promote agriculture, while oth
er less general and important interests
have been largely aided ; therefore,
Jleeolved by the Senate, (the House <\f lie
preventatives concurring,) That the com
mittee on agriculture of the respective
Houses be, and they are hereby in
structed to consider generally the sub
ject of agriculture, and report, by bill
or otherwise, what can or ought to be
done by the General Government to
better advance, encourage, and foster
agricultural interests, and that said
committee shall have the power to
send for persons and papers.
Mr. President, in inviting the at
tention of the Senate to this resolu
tion and asking its jiassage, I feel
that there is no subject of more im
portance and more moment to the
country, none around which so many
interests cluster and in which so
many center, as American agricul
ture.
It is a subject so broad, so national,
so universal, so non-partisan, so non
seetional,so far-reaching in itaelfects
and important in its results, that it
should at once command the patient
attention of all, and in its considera
tion party feeling and party passion
should have no voice.
The country has been, and is weigh
ed down with a heavy national, State,
municipal, and individual debt, held
at home and abroad, the interest and
principal of which must be paid;
business has been, and is, depressed;
commerce languishes; confidence is
destroyed ; almost numberless reme
dies and suggestions have been pro
|K>sod to bring relief and restore pros
perity, but, in the prolonged stagna
tion, most all have failed and are dis
trusted.
This resolution is not brought for- ,
ward as a panacea for nil our ills and
the only safe road out of our troubles,
but it is claimed that for what has
been done in the past to bring relief,
and for whatever of light and hope
there is ahead of us, the country is
mainly indebted to agricultore ; and
if anything can be done to stimulate
and better promote this great na
tional interest, the greatest of all, it
will not only continue largely to aid
in bringing relief and restore pros
perity, but remain a lasting and sub
stantial benefit to the country in the
future.
Writing Farmers.
ft*m th Rural Trk*r.
It is rather a favorite "skit" at
farmers who write for the papers to
say that they don't practice what
they preach, and that thus they fre
quently disappoint those who visit
them by the slovenly appearance of
their premises, the ill-kept condition
of their live-stock, and the weedi
ness and light returns of their crops.
This charge has a small sub-stratum
of truth to rest upon; and yet a pret
ty wide acquaintance with writing
farmers enables us to declare that
the foundation for such ill-natured
charges is much less than is asserted
by men who may be good farmers,
but who are so selfish that they not
only won't "do good and communi
cate," themselves, but enjoy "sitting
in the seat of the scomer" wagging
their hard heads, and comforting
their little souls by exaggerating the
defects of their neighbors.
go far as there is truth in the gos
sip of such men about "writing farm
ers," the explanation is not at all dif
ficult, nor is it greatly to the discred
it of those who are so criticised.
There is a limit to the working abili
ty of every man and woman. 80
much can be done in a day, and then
the night comcth, and rest must be
taken. The bard-beaded and hard
hearted humau animal, be he farmer
or what not, who devotes all his ef
forts to his own selfish advancement
and cares nothing for the good of
others, no doubt has a shads of ad
vantage in mere money-making over
his neighbor who is willing to devote
a part of his time to the general good
—and snch Is the practice of agricul
tural writers, as a rule. Certainly
there is no branch of literary effort
where labor yields so poor a return
as in agricultural writing. As yet,
so little does tho average farmer and
Ids family care for improvement in
their own business that, little as they
read any way, nine-tenths of what
they do read is the mere news, gos
sip and scandal of tho day, or the
blood-and-thundcr and cheap senti
ment of the dime novel and the story
paper. Few men ever earn a dollar
by writing upon agriculture.
Rut in still other ways is the gen
erous-hearted citizen at a disadvan
tage with tiic hard-heads in a rural
community. Not only will he sacri
fice his time and strength by his writ
ing, if lie writes, but he is tho one
upon whom Ins merciless critics are
sure to shirk off all the useful, but
|>ecuniarily unprofitable work of the
neighborhood. Both in public and
church affairs the thrifty boor and
his griping helpmeet are "too bus}'"
to lend a hand ; but neighbor Good-
Heart and sister Charity are dele
gated by a unanimous vote—and a
sneering laugh in the sleeve—to do
the "thank-ye" jobs for the common
good. They do them cheerfully, and
"great will be their reward in heaven,"
but on earth it in probable that Good-
Heart's farm and Charity's house
hold will suffer in comparison with
those of the pious and patriotic
neighbors who profit by their exer
tions, only to "say all manner of evil
against them falsely."
Why We should Dnderdrain.
Knmi Prof. ALll*'* y Lef.r* th* I'mtiijllonla
&"/ 1 of Agrt'ulturo
In all umlrnined, retentive soils
there is what mny be called a water
table line, ranging in depth from six
to eighteen inches. Here at this
point is a constant source of cold.
From this water-table moisture will
ascend by attraction to the surface.
Evaporation, ns la-fore stated, is a
cooling process. Here, then, we have
two causes o|a-rating conjointly to
produce cold, the very thing we do
not want, but its opposite beat. How
shall this be destroyed f Evidently
by breaking the union of these two
forces. If we can get the water of
attraction below the depth to which
eva|>orntion operates, then the con
nection is broken.
Soils pro|crly drained, pass this
water by slow degrees to a much
lower level, and thence by drains,
outward. The moisture needed for
the soil to perfect growth, Is obtained
from the warm waters from the clouds. I
And as these wntcrs pass downward
through the canal-pores or openings,
the warm atmospheric air fills the
places thus emptied.
All waters falling upon a field in
the form of rain or snow, belong, of
right, to that field, and ought never
to be allowed to pass over it, but
downward and through it. Water run
ning over the surface of the ground
is always carrying away the very in
gredients most needed, and in the
best form for the nourishment of
plants. • • • •
Fields drained to a depth of three
and a half or four feet, at distances
varying from thirty to forty feet, will
have in two or three yean after
draining, a capacity for taking nearly
all waters falling in rain or snow. *
* • * Let me mention some of
the most obvious results arising from
draining. 1. It carries off stagnant'
water, and furnishes an escape for
excessive rainfalls. 2. It prevents
the ascent of water from below by
capillary attraction. 3. Water pass
ing downward through the soil opens
the way for fresh air laden with oxy
gen, which is so essential to hasten
the decomposition of minerals in the
soil. 4. Hoils after draining become
more open and pliable, and are thus
more easily worked. Stubborn clay
soils arc almost entirely changed.
5. Soils become warmer by taking
off the water, and thus advance or
hasten the growing crop, bringing
about an earlier harvest, and in effect
producing a change of climate. 6. It
enables the farmer in a wet season,
both for spring and fall seeding, to ,
put in an earlier crop. 7. It increas
es the depth of cultivated soil. 8.
In wet soils, wood ashes, bones and
many other ingredients that might
act as fertiliser*, lie dormant and are
lost. Taking off this excessive mois
ture, these elements are changed and
rendered effective.
Change of Seed.
Tmm lb Rare) Vrw Yorker.
If not already done, it ia none too
soon to look out for good seed for
the crops of the year. The farmer
may be a good one. lie may have
saved his own seed for many years
iu succession, lie may have contin
ued to improve it This ia ail right
and proper, but a change will be a j
lieneflt, or rather he will gain a large !
percentage in the yield by obtaining I
seed of the same variety he now
raises, and then mixing it with the
seed kept for years on his own place.
The advantage of this mixture will
not be apparent until the second
year. It will be leas and less appar
ent for several yean after. These
are not the outcome of guesswork or
theory. They are the result of many
experiments made for ten or twelve
yean by Charles Darwin. Professor
Beal has also lately made some experi
ments In the same direction, showing
a great advantage in mixing seeds of
the Mime variety grown in different
places. He promises to furnish us
the result la a few weeks.
Food for Fowls.
"If liens are rightly cared for they
should pay from 200 to 800 per cent,
profit as layers. They must not be
stinted as to space, nor too many
kept together, if confined allow at
least a square rod to each fowl. Let
the floor of the hen house lie of dry
earth with a box of dirt and ashes
for their sand bath. Keep their
quarters clean by removing their
droppings at least three times a week.
Buckwheat and wheat are the best
grains, although for variety other
grains must be given. Give cooked
food in various ways every day.
Mush is excellent, as also fresh meal
and scraps from the kitchen. Two or
three times a week give fresh hone*
and ground t>oncs, with gravel and
broken oyster shells always within
reach. Apples, cabbage,turnips and
onions, raw or cooked, will be rel
ished.
Kill the Old Sheep.
It is folly to keep old sheep. They
should be turned oil to the butcher
while they are in their prime. It
does not take half as much to fatten
them then. When they get old and
thin in order to put tiicin in condi
tion to slaughter the whole super
structure must !>e rebuilt. Four sets
of lambs am nil a ewe should bear;
this will bring her to five years, and
this is nn age wh< n witli little extra
care she will round up to a fine and
full carcass. Exceptions may IK:
made when the breed is scarce, and
the blood is more desirable than any
thing else.
MB. JOIIN M. BAII.F.Y writes from
Billerica, Mass., to The American CW
tivaior, that lie had no idea bow much
valuable manure be was losing until
he cemented his barn cellar bottom
and carted in dry ioaiu and muck (at
the rate of one or two loads a day)
to absorb all the liquids from his cat
tle, horses and pigs.
GIVE your COW everyday water
slightly warm and slightly salted, in
which bran has been stirred at the
rate of one quart to two gallons of
water. You will find, if you have
not tried this dally practice, that
your cow will give 2. r > |er cent, more
milk.
HENS are egg-making machines,
and they will turn out just as many
eggs in winter as in summer, if they
have pro]>er care.
EXPKIUENCE IS a good commodity
to buy, if it is not too costly. The
l>est farmer is likely to be he who
buys plenty of it, but at a low cost.
IN all farm crops the finest has not
only the best market and the highest
price, but there are buyer* always
seeking the hest.
