Every farmer in his annual experience
discovert something of ratue.' Writ* it and
tend it to the " Agricultural Editor of the
Dkmoi-rat, Hellefoiite, I'enn'a," that other
farmers may hare the benefit of it. Let
communications be timely, and be sure, that
they are briej and well pointed.
IN OL'II opinion the sweetest and
best of the many varieties of sweet
com is the Black Mexican, or as
some of the catalogues have it, the
lllack Sugar. Its color will prob
ably prevent it from becoming pop
ular as a market variety, but for
home use wo advise every reader of
the DEMOCRAT to plant at least a few
hills and give it a trial. It is early,
quite prolific and its flavor is delic
ious.
THE cold, drying winds which pre
vailed during the greater part of
April, and at this writing arc unabat
ed in force, have perceptibly injured
winter wheat, and done much to in
crease the shortage of this crop al
* ready assured by last Fall's drouth.
It is possible that warm showers yet
to come may improve its chances,
but, while we disclaim any intention
to "croak," wc prophesy there will
be no ninety ccut wheat this year.
ONE of the most annoying pests
of the farm is rats, and all the more
so, because it sometimes seems im
possible to get rid of, or circumvent
them. In the midst of the plenty
generally to Vie found about the barn
and crib it is with difficulty that
they can be baited into traps, or in
duced to eat any of the extraordi
nary poisons. We have just succeed*
ed in completely ridding our premis
es of the "varmints" by the use of
"Glcntworth's I'est Exterminator,"
made at 817 Race St., Philadelphia.
We saw it highly commended by a
correspondent in some of our ex
changes, and tried it with such suc
cess that we believe we do our read
ers a kindness by commending it to
them. Remember it is highly pois
onous, and must Ire kept away from
poultry, cats, or anything else but
the rats and mice you want to kill.
It seems to have an attraction for
them, and they cat it readily.
IN RCMAOINO among the old files
of our agricultural exchanges, we
find an advertisement of a patent
fence, illustrated by a wood cut
"showing the security of the new
fence against the insecurity of the j
old-fashioned post and rail fence."
The new fence is one of three rails, i
and the improvement consists in
having the under side of the rails
grooved, with wires passing through
the grooves, the use of which is to
strengthen the nils, that they may
not break when climbed over. The
illustration is a double one, repre
senting on one side the new fence,
bearing up nobly its load of tres
passers,. who seem to be a family
party in search of fruit and flowers.
On the other side a couple of gun
ners with their dogs have mounted
the ordinary "old-fashioned post and
rail fence," which in sheer digust at
their impudence and lawlessness in at
tempting to enter the field which it
has been erected to guard, breaks
down and spills the loafers to the
ground, who in their tumble dis
charge both guns, blowing the hat
ofr from one, nnd a couple of fingers
ofT the other. Serves 'em right, we
say, nnd we would rather have the
old fence than the r.sw. If a fence
could l>e invented that would break
down every time a gunning loafer at
tempts to cross it, and scare him bad
ly enough to send him back with his
gun and dogs, wc have no doubt it
would find immense favor with the
farmers. In the vicinity of large
towns, and small ones, too, this thing
of having the farms overrun, and the
fanners best friends, the insectivor
ous birds, destroyed wholesale, by a
pack of loafing, half-grown boys and
young men of idle and dissolute hair
its, has come to be an unbearable
nuisance, and the sooner it is abated
the better it will be for all concerned.
To call such people sportsmen, is to
dignify them by a title to which they
have no claim, and the true sports
incu should Join the farmers in their
efforts to put a Btop to their maraud
ings. Let the farmers avail them
selves of their rights under the law,
and treat as a trespasser any man who,
without permission, dares to sot a foot
on the premises with a gun on his
shoulder and a dog at his heels.
SOME ONE, in writing homo from
the l'aris Exposition of last year,
and speaking of the plows to be seen
there, remurked that the American
plowman wanted, and the American
manufacturers were muking plows
which, when properly regulated,
would, in a stiff, smooth sod, run across
a forty-acre field without holding. At
the time we thought this simply an
American extravagance, but one day
last week we saw the thing done—in
fact did it ourselves. The land was
nice, smooth sod, three years old,
and without large stones, and the
plows were of the South Bend ('hill
ed pattern, Bold by U.K. Hicks, of
whom we purciiased them. After
carefully regulating we tried the ex
pcriment of letting them run them
selves, and oir they went, with the
plowman walking out on the sod,
and simply holding the line, for
twenty, thirty and forty rods at a
time, turning as handsome and true
a furrow as one could wish to see,
with no assistance whatever, except
ing, of course, that of the team in
drawing. The more we use these
plows, the better we like them, nnd
the farmers of Centre county should
tender a vote of thanks to Mr. Hicks,
for introducing so vnluahle an im
plement. A large number have been
sold throughout the country, and we
would be glad if those who are using
them would write us, giving us their
opinion of the plow and its work.
The Farmer's Vegetable Garden.
This subject seems to be, year by
year, commanding more of the atten
tion it deserves. In confirmation of
our own views as expressed two or
three weeks ago, we transfer to our
columns, with our hearty endorse
ment, the following which wc find in
the current number of the Country
Gentleman :
There is no patch of land on the farm
that yields so tnucli comfort to the fam
ilv. and shows so tnuch profit on the
ledger, as the garden, ptorided it is
properly managed. Few farmers ap
parently believe this ; certainly the
great majority do not give nuch attm
tion to their gardens as will aecure the
best results, They seem to regard
gardening as fancy work, suitable for
w iraen and children, but too small bus
iness for men ; and it must be confessed
that the old-fashioned farmer's garden
was a pent-up Ulica tiiat contracted his
iKiwers. With a hundred acres around
liiin. the farmer's fashion was—and is
still in many places—to fence off a lit
tle patch five or six roils square, with a
high picket fence so as to keep out the
hens, plant some current hushes by this
fence, and lay out the remainder iu
small plats for vegetables, with walks
running between them, that occupied
a good share i 4 the ground, and requir
ed no small shareof attention.* A frac
tion of the garden was devoted to
flower*. and here was displayed much
faney work, the flower beus being made
in the form of triangles, circles, cres
cents, ellipses, Ac., as thought they
were intended to teach the children
geometry. *
In all this there was much work and
little profit. Much a garden may an
swer for a village ameteur, hut the
farmer needs a garden of more site—an
acre or more—with no fence around it.
in that he can cultivate it by horse
power, and change the location ocean
tonally. It should he strictly a vegeta
hie garden, and the vegetables should
he cultivated in long, straight rows,
with no walks between them, except
footpaths for the horse. Flowers are
all right in their place, hut this place is
on the Uwn. There the wife can show
her taste and knowledge of geometry
without intruding upon the province of
the husbandman. It was the extra la
bor ujion the walks and flower bods,
which was necessarily done by hand, as
horses cannot work well in a contract
ed triangle, that disgusted our fathers
with gardening. Let the flower nnd the
vegetable gardens be divorced, and let
the latter be so located that the vegta
Idea can he cultivated as field crops
commonly are, and the housewife will
not have to complain thalahe has noth
ing but potatoes, cabbages and turnip*
to grace her table. In the old style
garden there was little opportunity for
a rotation of crops, and that little
chance was poorly improved. Cabbage*
and potatoes were raised on the same
ground year after year, the former be
came clubfooted, and the latter few in a
hill, and small at that. The farmer*
wandered that with garden cultivation
the crop* were *o light. The trouble
waa, there was no exchange of locality
among the few vegetable* cultivated,
and the land became exhausted of the
peculiar food which each crop demand
ed. I-ocate the garden in the field
where there is plenty of room for a va
riety of vegetables, and let corn, beans,
potatoes, Ac., follow each other in rota
tion, and exhaustion fcill ensue more
•lowly, even with the same quantity of
fertiliser*. Much a location may neces
sitate a little more travel for the house
wife, but she will he compensated for
her trouble by better vegetables and
plenty of them. The hens, also, will sel
dom trouhlo a garden located in the
field; certainly not if it. Ie hedged
around with a luxuriant crop of grivro.
After an experience of years with a lit
tle, contracted, fenced-in garden near
the bouse, and with a longer experience
with a lurgu one in the acid, 1 am rat
irtied that an acre of vegetables can be
cultivated more economically by horse
power, than can twenty square rods by
manual labor. •
Farmers should eultivato a greater
variety of vegetables than IIHS been
their custom. They will find that a
large garden will go far towards (be
support of a large family. Not only so,
but they will find the health of the
family improved by a diet composed
more of vegetables and fruit and less of
beef and pork. It is not to the credit of
tillers of the soil that the denizens of
cities should enjoy the comforts of fruit
and vegetables to a much larger extent
than the producers of these things.
The farmer is content with half n do/,
en messes of green peas, ono sowing of
lettuce and ono planting of corn, while
the citizen has a supply of these vege
tables, raised by market gardeners, for
six months, and while the well-to-do
farmer lias one or two varieties of vege
tables on his table, the well-to-do citi
zen has a half a dozen. It isn mistake
to hupposc that the farmer can afford
nothing to hi family but potatoes, cab
bages and the more common vegetables.
Vegetables ure far cheaper than meat.
The latter is made from the former, and
it requires a pile of the ono to make a
little of the other. It is estimated that
ono hundred pounds of pork sr>- the
result of feeding fifteen busht-lsof corn,
or the equivalent of this corn in some
other form of vegetable food, but were
this vegetable food fed directly to man
it would sustain life four times us long
and in a much healthier condition than
the pork, With a little pains in sow
ing a succession of crops of lettuce,
peas, coin, Ac., the farmer can have
green vegetables on his table for half
the year, and with a little more pains
in canning them, they can adorn hi*
table in the winter as well as in sum
tuer.
Keep the Young Chickens Eating.
Vr -tn the MuearhutelU IT ma(i.
The groat point in rasing chickens
is to keep them eating all the time,
or, at any rate, to keep their diges
tive organs continually well supplied.
"Short commons" are not economic
al in chicken raising.
The common custom is to keep a
dish of "Indian meal dough" mixed
up, and two or three times a day a
lot is thrown down to the chickens.
If they oat it, well and good ; if not,
ami the chances arc they will not, they
become having tir-dof one single arti
cle ol diet set before them day after
day, it stands and sours. If a quan
tity is thus found uneaten, the next
feed is like to be a light one, and the
chickens, driven by hunger, finally
devour the sour stuff; the result is,
cholera or some other fatal disease
sets in, and their owner wonders
"why my chiekens are all dying off."
In our own practice, we find that
email gunnhtirs of rari'd food if given
to the rhirkens often produce vastly
better results than any other method
of feeding.
Indian meal dough we banished
from our poulry-yards long ago, and
on no conditions would we |>crmit
young chickens to be fed with it. For
the morning-meal we give all our
young poultry stock ladled potatoes
mashed up fine. We find nothing so
good and acceptable; and as we
use only the small potatoes, those
which arc unmarketable and not large
enough for the table, they prove to
l*e more profitable than any other
article of food.
When in days gone by, we used to
feed the chickens with the tradition
al Indian meal dough, we always
counted on losing a large |>erceotagc
of them, and the nil miters that died
from cholera, diarrhea, and kindred
diseases were very great. Now a
sick chicken is unknown toour yards,
and we lay our success entirely to
the disuse of Indian meal dough. |
After the |K)tatocs are diajvosed of,
we give our chickens all llie fine
cracked corn they will cat up clean.
We can not find in the grain stores
corn cracked to the proper degree of
fineness, and p have as a fixture in
our poultry-house a large-sized coffee
mill, such as grocers have, and wc
run the corn through that.
Of course large chickens, those
which arc ten or twelve weeks old,
do not need such fine-ground corn,
but the young birds do. In almut
two hours after the cracked corn is
eaten, wc give all the wheat screen
ings that the chickens will eat, and
in another two hours spread before
them a fresh meal of l>oilcd potatoes.
For supper they have all the cracked
corn and wheat they can eat.
The Itest systems of feeding, how
ever, will not avail if the young birds
are permitted to become overrun
with vermin. They should lie anoint
ed on their heads and under their
wings and on their backs once a week
with a mixture of equal part* of
lard and kerosene-oil; and If the
hens arc anointed in the same way
the additional labor will prove re
munerative. Unless proper manage
ment is exercised, chicken raising is
one of the most unsatisfactory of
employments; but, if it is done sys
tematically, is as profitable and pleas
ant as any other business.
A solution of whale-oil soap and
hellebore rids plants of most insects,
including scale, mealy-bug and slug
but to be effective sgainst the green
fly a dash of Persian insect powder
must be added.
SATURATE corn cobs with kerosene
and hang them on the plum trees in
order to get rid of the "curculio."
How to Wash Sheep.
My Scotch fri*nl cnlle<l bin meth
od the plan of washing by rolling.
Having got his sheep into water of
proper depth aa quietly as poasible,
the washer turns it upon his back,
passes his arm under the sheep's
head, and grasps its nose (irmly with
his right hand. With the left he
takes hold of both of the fore-legs,
and swaying his person slightly to
the left he rolls the sheep over to the
left side; then he rolls it to the right,
and so on, till the water comes from
the sheep perfectly clear. The mo
tion will be found a very easy one for
the washei and a kindly one for the
sheep. Fifty or sixty rolls will thor
oughly wash any sheep ; forty or
fifty usually is enough. As the sheep
is rolled backward and forward, the
water is forces! freely through the
natural partings and through all
parts of the fleece, and as the wool
is not matted so as to obstruct tin
flow of the water, it IKCOUICH thor
oughly cleansed.
To Prevent Crowi; from Pulling Com.
G. W. L., Homeworth, ()., writes:
When I am shelling my seed corn I
shell off the small end of the ear in a
vessel by itslf, as I do not plant that
part of the ear. When I am ready
to plant I put whatever quantity I
may have of this refuse corn in a
vessel to soak. When 1 have finish
ed planting I throw this corn in two
or three spots in my field of planted
corn. Win-never 1 have done this at
the time I mention, 1 have never had
a hill of corn pulled up by the crow s.
Hut when 1 have neglected it until
my corn was up they would continue
to pull it it 1 did not give them soak
ed corn. I have often seen other
birds as well as crows come to get
the soaked corn until they would
form a path nround the heap.
THE FIRST FARMER.— Ralph Wal
do Kmcrson says the first farmer was
the first man, and all historic nobility
rests on possession and use of land.
Men do not like bard work,but every
man lias an exceptional respect for
tillage, ami a feeling that it is the
original calling of his race; that he
himself is only excused from some
circumstances which made him dele
gate it for a time to other hands. If
he have not some skill which recom
mends him to the farmer, some pro
duct for which the farmer will give
him corn, then he must himself re
turn into his due place
planters. And the profession has, in
all eyes, its ancient charm as stand
nearest to Uod, the first cause of ali
thai is true, good, noble and honor
able.
A VAM AIH.K mixture to keep on
band at this season is one of coal
ashes, sulphur, and hellebore. The
ashes should la- very fine. It is lwst
after passing them through the ordin
ary coal-agh sieve. To one pailful of
ashes thus sifted,add a quart each of
flour of sulphur and hellcl>ore and
mix together. For currant worms,
plant lice, cabbage fleas, slugs on
|car trees, melon bugs, we found this
so effectual last season that we con
fidently recommend it to our readers.
It is always l>est to use It in the cool
of the morning, while the dew is upon
tlic leaf.
IT is necessary to have plenty of
nests for the hens, so that one will
not drive otr or annoy another. If
the hens are not suited in this par
tienlar, they w ill sock nests for them
selves it* some out-of-the-way place.
The fact that a hen will, when choos
ing a nest, take to some secret or
quiet place should serve as a hint as
to the proper method of building
nests. A nest egg of some kind is
necessary. Take this away and leave
no eggs, and Hiddy will desert the
IK-st of nests.
PL.AMTtMo POTATOES. — I discard
the seed ends and then cut the |K>tato
in as many pieces as the sixc of it
will admit, each piece not smaller
titan a hen's egg. If there are more
than two eyes in a piece cut them
out. liCl them wilt a few days and
plant in rows three feet apart and
fifteen inches in the row. In this
way I can raise more marketable
potatoes than in any way I have ever
tried.
IM starting squashes, Mr. J. C.
Chandler, Everett, Mass., places a
• liberal quantity of manure in a hole
for each hill, adds an inch or two of
fine soil, levels up with cosl ashes,
puts in the seed or sets the plants,
and after each hoeing scatters on the
surface a fresh supply of the ashes.
In this way his patch is kept entirely
free from gruhs, while in his experi
ence every hill planted without ashes
will be destroyed.
Finely-ground plaster of Paris,
dusted over the infested foliage when
moist with dew or rain, is, according
to a writer in The N. K. Homestead,
sure death to the current worm.
During a three years' experience one
application generally made a clean
sweep, and in the worst cases only
two were required.
