Every farmer in hit annual experience
discover* something of value. H'rite it and
send it to the " Agricultural Editor Of the
IIKMoi'KAT, Hrlle'fonte, I'cnn'a," that other
farmers may hare the benefit of ii. Let
eummurii<-afum* be timely, and be sure thai'
they are frrief and welt pointed.
THE Farmer'* Friend will lie pub
lished daily at Williams' drove dur
ing the continuance of the tri-State
picnic and exhibition. Tliis is an
exhibition of enterprise on the part
of Brother Thomas which we hojic
will meet with abundant reward.
SET aside a row, or part of a row,
of the jicas, beans, sweet corn, Ac.,
for seed, and from this take the ear
liest and best. To eat the "first
fruits," always the finest,
and save the "leavings" for seed, is a
sure way to have the sort "run out." j
IT IS noticable that the State
Society prohibits racing in any form
at its fair to be held in Philadelphia
this year. We lielieve this to lie in
Record with the sentiments of those 1
to whom the Society must look for
the contributions required to make ,
the fair a success,and that it will find
a good account therein.
Is IT not poor economy to pay
or $2.50 for a professedly agri- j
clHlil™! paj>er which comes but once
a tl,e Democrat, costing
but $1.50, ci¥>cs every week, and
gives you the erSV" of all the agri
cultural pa|x i rs, besides the local
news, official publicatt° ns °f county
olliccrs, a complete eprtP ,DC °f (he
latest and freshest general flews, and
a large amount of the very Vest of
family reading?
IT SEEMS to be conceded by the
great majority of successful wheat
growers that the only way yet dis
covered of Avoiding damage to the
wheat crop by the Hessian Fly is to
sow late. We must remember, how
ever, that the Fly is not the only
danger which wheat must encounter,
and not run into others while endeav
oring to avoid this. Upon rich, well
drained land, lute sowing will usually
succced best, but these conditions are
requisite to success.
If yovr poultry seems to be droop
ing, and "not doing well," the chances
are nine out of ten that they are lieing
eaten up by lice. These pests multi
ply wonderfully during hot days, and
must lie watched closely to prevent
them from overrunning the fowls. A
coat of whitewash, with a strong dash
of carliolic acid in it, for the hen
house,and an occasional saturatingof
the roosting poles with common coal
oil arc the remedies, and tlicy are
"sure cure." Do not neglect to apply
tliern, and then complain if your
chickens die otL
WE REORET to licar complaints
from many quarter* of the failure of
the catch of clover sown on winter
grain last spring. In many, perhaps
most cases, the seed germinated, but
the succeeding dry, cold weather
proved to much for the tender young
plants, and they hail to succumb.
This is a misfortune. Clover is the
sheet anchor of farming in most parts
of our county, and its failure means
smaller crops and poorer land. A
neighbor of our* proposes to try
seeding down a piece of wheat with
clover this fall, and if it should fail
to show well in the spring, sow again.
This will give him two chances at
any rate, and that fail-sown clover
docs sometimes succeed well has been
demonstrated time and again.
FROM all accounts potatoes will lie
in great abundance, and at very low
prices this fall. The present condi.
tion of the crop is unusually favora
ble, and the acreage planted is much
larger Uian usual, t|)c increase in this
State being nine per cent., and for
the whole country three |icr cent. In
this state of affairs it seems to us
advisable to make arrangements for
disposing of the crop with the least
handling, and to the best possible
advantage. We propose to "sort"
ours closely st digging, and put away
only the finest. The remainder, if
boiled and mixed with meal, will make
cheap and excellent pork. By this i
course we will avoid tho rink of
keeping over large quantities, and
those which are kept will bring better
prices in the spring.
WITH tho closing of the hay and
oats harvest, the farmers' spring cam
paign, in this locality, in ended, nnd
we are ready for the "fall work." The
season just closed has required a deal
of hard work, and we have been
driven through it at break-neck tqiccd.
That which is now opening will have
its full proportion of hard work too,
but there will IK; less of push and
drive than in the earlier part of the
year. Let us improve this compara
ble leisure by doing what we have to
do better than usual, nnd wedge in
between the joints of the regular
work some of the thousund and one
little raids and ends of jobs, which
seem to be neglected so easily, but
which, when done, go so far toward
improved appearances, and making
farming pay. We cannot, for obvi
ous reasons, make a list of the tilings
which should be attended to, but if
every farmer will put on his thinking
cap and spectacles, and look about
him, lie will find more than enough
of these small matters to keep him
from falling into bad habits because
of idleness. Whatever you do or
leave undone, don't neglect the weeds.
Smite them right and left, and' keep
at it, until you arc sure that i> o nc
will go to seed.
Legislation for Fanners. f
Some one has said that the
of men are not all bad, nor the
all good, and what is true of imljj.
viduals may be true of bodies i.f
men. That it is true may lie learned
from the late State Legislatures
which, among all its disgrace fab
wrangles aud debauchery, found tint,,
to pass at least two liills which at,,
of s|>eciai interest to the fariniJ,,,
community and which will be wii e .
ly commended. The first is an act
(V,icourage the planting of trees k y

Sa. 2. Any trees tha
side of the public highway as foresaid,
in the place of trees which have died, I
shall b allowed for in the same man
ner and on the same conditions as in
the previous section.
Sic. 3. No jieraon shall be allowed in
abatement of this highway tax as afore
said more than one quarter of his an
nual highway tax, and no one shall re
ceive an aliatement of tax for trees
planted previous to the paanaqfcof tins
act. ▼
Sic. 4. Any person who shall cut
down, kill or injure any living tree
planter! as aforesaid, shall pay to the
supervisor of roads as aforesaid fifty
cents for each and every tree cut down,
killed or removed, and be collected as
other taxes are now collected.
This i a just and proper act, paus
ed with a view to the real good of the
people, nnd tqion the principle "(Jive
the devil his due" wc congratulate
the Legislature U|>on the lucid inter
val of it* existence which enabled it
to pass. Now, let the farmers of
Centre county accept its provisions
in the same generous spirit in which
it was enacted, nnd the generation
which plants will live to see our road
sides vie with the lawns of
Kngland" In "hearthsome shades nnd
luscious fruits." True, this law is
not mandatory and does not command
us to plant that we may enjoy, but,
when we know that enjoyment as well
as profit will follow the planting, shall
we not take advantage of the law
which proposes to jmy tho bills ? For
this is what it The dol
lar to lie deducted from our road tax
will jjist about pay the expense of
planting the four trees which entitle
us to the deduction, and all the pleas
ure and profit which will follow will
be clear gain. Speaking on this sub
ject, the Time* says; "There is not a
farm or rural lot in the State that
would not tie vastly enhanced in
actual as well as in market value by
a judicious and liberal planting of
trees, and with such beautiful and
rapid growers as the cherry anil the
sugar maple to tempt the land-owner
to combine the moat delightful shodcH
with the annual harvest of cherries
and sugar, it should not require the
mandate of law to make them plant
in profusion. They have not done so,
however, and HO indifferent are very
many of the owners of rural homes
in this State to their own comfort,
that their houses are often without
trees about them and entirely unpro
tected from the beat of the summer
and the blasts of winter. Now the
law proposes to teach laud-owners
what their tastes, their comfort and
their interests should have taught
them long ago,and ns they will hence
forth be paid for beautifying and
enriching their own lands, it is to be
hoped that the spirit of the act will
be infused troughoul all classes and
sections of Pennsylvania, until every
roadside shall be green with beauty
and plenty."
The other act to which wc refer is
one "to regulate the manufacture and
sale of commercial fertilizers," and
was approved June 2s, Ix7 'J, and
although the limited amount of com
mercial fertilizers as yet used in
Centre county make it of less impor
tance here than the other, it is of
very general interest to farmers
throughout the State. We believe
that a full understanding of the safety
ami assurance with which this class
of fertilizers can now l>c purchased
will stimulate the use of them in our
county, and to this end we publish
the actcntire, although it necessitates
the surrendering to it of a large pro
portion of our space:
SZITION 1. Tliat every package >F
commercial fertilizer sold, oiler**!, or
exjo-ed for *>ale, for uianural purpo-*
within tliis Commonwealth, shall have
plainly stamped thereon the nunc of
the manufacturer the place of manu
facture, the net weight of it* content**,
and an analysis stating the percentage
therein contained of nitrogen, or it -
equivalent in ammonia, in an available
form, of potash soluble in water, of
soluble ami reverted plioshoric arid,
and of insoluble phosphoric acid ; I'r
vi'/zi/, That any commercial fertilizer
sold, ottered, or exposed for aale, which
shall contain none of the above named
constituents, shall lie ex* mpt from the
provisions of this set.
Sc. 2. Kvery manufacturer or im
j-orter of commercial fertilizers, as s|*r
died in section One of thia art, shall
on or before the first day of Aupwt
next ensuing, or before offering the
same for sale in this <'ontmonwralth.
file annually in the office of the Secre
tary of the Commonwealth an affidavit
stating the amount of said fertilizer or
fertilize within the State during
the last proceeding year, and if said
amount he one hundred tons or less,
he or they shall pay to the treasurer of
the State the sum of ten dollars for
each and every such article of such
commercial fertilizer sold within the
State (luring the last preceeding year,
and if said amount shall exceed one
hundred tons, and be less than five
hundred tons, he or they shall pay the
sum of twenty dollars as aforesaid ; and
if said amount shall he five hundred
tons or more, he or they shall pay the
sum of thirty dollars as aforesaid. If
such manufacturer or manufacturers or
imj>orters shall not have made any sales
within the Commonwealth during the
preceeding year, he or they shall pay
the slim of ten dollars as aforesaid.
Kvery such manufacturer or mi|>orter
shall at the Same time file with the Sec
retary of the ftosrd of Agriculture a
copy of the analytic required by section
one of this act, and shall be entitled to
receive from the Secretary of the Com
monwealth a certificate, which shall he
countersigned by the Secretary of the
Itoard of Agriculture, showing that tha
provisions of this act have been com
plied with.
Mgr. 3. Any person selling, offering,
or exposing for sale any commercial
fertiliser without the analysis required
hy section one of this act, or with an
analysis stating that it contains a larger
perrenugo of any one or more of the
above named constituents than IS con
tained therein, or for the sale of which
all the provisions of section two have not
been complied with, shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor, ami on con
viction shall fnrfrit a sum not less than
twenty-five and not exceeding one hun
dred dollars for the first ofii-nse, and
not less than two hundred dollars for
each subsequent oflense, one half of
which shall be for the use of the infor
mer and the remainder for the county
in which the conviction is secured :
I'rovideJ, Said informer be the pur
chaser ami the goods be for bis own use.
Szc. 4. It shall lie the duty of the
Hoard of Agriculture to analyze such
sjiecimens ol commercial fertilizers a*
bo furnished hy its agents, said samples
to lie accompanied with proper proof,
under oath or affirmation, that they
were fairly drawn ; the fee for such an
alysis shall be determined by the execu
tive committee of the board, and be
based upon a fixed rate for each deter
mination, shall in no cose exceed seven
ty live per centum of the usual price
paid for such services, and shall be pay
able from the Treasury of the Common
wealth in the manner as now provided
by lew.
M*c. 5. The money paid into the
treasury under the provisions of this
act shall oonatitute a special fund from
which the cijst of iuch analysis shall be
paid : Prartdrd, That the total amount
thus expended in any one year shall in
no case exceed the amount paid into
the treasury during the ssmo fear, and
that any moneys remaining in this spe
cial fund at the end of the year shall
be psssed into the general fund for the
use of tha Mists.
Mac. 6. The term "oommeraial fertil
isers," aa uaed in thia act, shall be tak
on to iiH'uii any iii)>l every substance
imported, manufactured, prepared, or
MOM for fertilizing or manuring purposes,
except barnyard manure, marl, lim)*,
and wood u-lics, mid not exempt liy the
provision* of section one of this act.
Sic, 7. This ad shall go into effect on
and alter tin* firs! dv of August, one
tlioiiMand eight hundred and seventy
nine.
The hardships of litis act will bear
only upon dishonest niannfucttirers
and dealers in worllUess imitations,
and, as under all other just laws, the
HuH'crers will be the rascally few,
while the musses will be the benefici
aries, and honest manufacturers and
dealers will receive their reward in a
greatly increased business.
While due commendation and
praise should lie given the late Legis
lature for the passage of these acts,
the State Hoard of Agriculture is, we
believe, entitled tolhecredii for their
inception and elaboration, and this is
only one of the many instances in
which it has done good work for the
cause of agriculture in its brief but
increasingly useful existence.
How Much Seed Wheat to the Acre.
W K 11. in Practical f.rm*-r.
1 util within three or four years I
had not given the matter a thought,
but followed the example of my
neighbors and sowed from five to six
peek* to the acre. In the fall of
1 "7<>, inv neighbor, by a mistake in
setting the drill, sowed seven bushels
of seed on light acres. I was in the
field when lie was cutting it, ami
think I never saw a heavier growth
of straw, and the appisii a nee was
that il any fault could Is* found, it
was too thick on the ground. Since
that time, neither my neighbor nor
myself have sown over one bushel to
the acre and our wheat crops have
been uniformly heavy."
In the fall of 1 *77 I sowed a two
acre patch of wheat, and on one acre
ustsl half a bushel and the other a
bushel of seed. It showed a marked
difference in the fall, but stoolcd in
the spring so as to cover the ground
as completely on one part of the
field as the other. AY hen wv harvest
ed it, neither the man who drove the
reaper nor the binders could see any
difference ill the yield. I shocked it
and found fifty-one shocks on one
side and fifly-lwo on the other, and
it threshed sixty-five bushels, or a
bushel to nineteen sheaves. This
tear we had the same two-acre piece
in wheat, and I ordered it sowed, the
first acre one-half bushel, and the
other three |x-cks. The drill was a
new one, and after my man had sown
atzoat a fourth of an acre lie found
that he was getting on very little
see*l, and changed the drill to three
pi cks. \\ lien the wheat came up
there were many places from two to
four feet in the drill without a grain,
ami it made such a sorry show, that
the first of April I determined to
plow it up ami drove on with the
team for that purpose, but finally
changed my mind and left it. The
result was a fair crop of wheat, cer
tainly as much as twenty bushels to
the aero, but not up to the average of
the field. I cannot tell just how
much seed was used on this plat, as
the drill man did not tell me of the
mistake, ami I only found il out after
the wheat came up, but 1 do not
think it could have liecn more than
at the rate of six quarts to the acre.
A friend of mine who was for
many tears a successful wheat grow
er in Warren county, Ohio, and who
grew an average of thirty-seven
bushels to the acre on his entire crop
for one year, assures me that he has
experimented till he is satisfied that
three pecks of seed will grow a I let
ter crop of wheat than a larger
amount. I believe that il will lie
found that every farmer who has
given the matter a fair trial has been
pleased with the result ol thin seed
ing. Another fhing whidl makes it
look reasonable that thin seeding is
beat is, that we find an average of
nbout thirty grains in a bead, and as
each grain must produce one head, if
any, and may produce several, it
necessarily follows that if wc sow
one bushel to the acre and every
grain produces one head, we must
have thirty bushels to the acre.
What then becomes of the rest of
the seed when we sow five or six
|x*eks and harvest only twelve or fif
teen bushels, as is generally the case ?
It does not seem that it would lie
very dillioult to so enrich and pul
verize the aoil of a wheat field that
cncli stalk would tiller and produce
from four to six heads, and this
would make, if they were of average
size, from thirty to forty bushels per
acre. I'robably it would be running
too much risk to sow as little as n
peck to the acre, but I believe that
three |H*cks is ample fur any rifch,
well-prepared soil. I expert to thresh
to-morrow n six-acre field which was
sowed with that amount of seed, and
will report the average yield and
make some comments on it in anoth
er number. In the meantime let us
hear—between this and seeding time
—from farmers who have sown less
than a bushel to the acre, for In the
multitude of counselors there is
safety.
Odds and ends front the table may
be wrought into good fresh eggs at
short notice—only keep poultry. 1
