FARMERS, particularly young farm ers, do not fail to attend the fair this fall. Begin now to make your ar rangements and plan your work so that you ean go, and then go. And go in a two-fold capacity, first as an exhibitor, second as an observer. As an exhibitor contribute your full share toward making tne fair what it should be ; as an observer derive all the benefit from it that you oaii- Don't go us you "would to a circus, simply to see the crowds and be amused." The "Amusement Depart ment" is all right for an hour's enter- j I tainment, but don't confine yourself to it. Take note book and pencil, go carefully through all the departments, make close observations, ask que.'-' tions of exhibitors and committee-; men, and jot down whatever may strike you as interesting or worthy' of future attention. In no other way, at so little expense of time or ' money, can you gain so much knowl edge directly relating to your pro fession, nor do so much to establish your future position among the lead ers in agricultural progress. Oi'R views as to the importance ol | jioultry on the farm have been so often and plainly expressed that we need not now reiterate them. That this particular class of farm products is growing in the appreciation of the public is evinced by the large amount of "poultry literature" now in circu lation. Every agricultural paper has its special poultry department, and many of them employ an editor ex clusively for it, and in addition, there are a number of weekly and monthly journals devoted entirely to this in terest. Among the latter one of the most elegant is the I'et-Stoek, Pigeon un<l Poultry Bulletin, published at f>2 Courtlaudt street, Xcw York. As suggested by its name, this journal does not confine itself strictly to the interests of egg and meat producing farm poultry, but embraces within its scope pets of all sorts, making it peculiarly adapted to the boys and young people on the farm. One of the praetieal men interested in this journal is Geo. K. Hawley, of Glenn's Falls, X. Y., who is the only man we know of in the country who confines himself to the breeding of Dominique fowls, and lias undertaken to bring them up to the highest possible stand ard. Our opinion of the substantial, solid merits of these old-fashioned fowls, as specially adapted to the every-day wants of the farmer, is too well known to require repeating here, and we are glad that so enthusi astic and experienced a breeder as Mr. Hawley has undertaken to devcl ope their best qualities. We will continue to publish, from time to time, hints, facts and suggestions concerning poultry, and again urge upon our readers an increased atten tion to this "minor farm product." For the information of those of our readers who arc unacquainted with tbe Dominiques, we publish in an other column their characteristics, as required by the "American Standard of Excellence," and to which Mr, Hawley is aiming to breed them. Legally Protected Birds. If our farmers will bear in mind j the following paragraph and enforce It, and liack it up by protecting the birds from destructive agencies other than the sho'-gun, there will shortly be less complaint of destruction of crops and fruit by insects: It ia unlawful to shoot at any time a - nigbthswk, whipporwill, sparrow, thrii<h, martin, lark, finch, chimney swallow, barn awallow, woodpecker, flicker, robin, oriole, rod or cardinal bird, cedar bird, tanager, cat bird, blue bird, or any inaectirerous bird under a penalty of Ave dollars each, or to de stroy their eggs or nests under a penally Of ten dollars lor eacli offense. An Invention O&lled For. From lh<* OorrMpondMiM of thr Mnillflc Atiirrli an. There ia one invention which is very much needed by the fnrniers of Amor : ii a, ono which wouhi add millions to their income, millions to the commerce of our country, ttnd one which, if it cnn iw invented and successfully operated, will uiftkc the inventor a millionaire. It is some kind of u machine by which the loss in the wheat crop will be reduced to, say, one-fifth of the crop. I will give you an ideu of the loss in the crop ny stating an experiment which I have tried this summer to test the loss. A neighbor had u field of 85 acres near . my house, which was judged to make 10 to 'JO bushels per acre. When fully ripe I selected one square yard, which I was sure was less than an average of the field, cut, dried and rubbed it out care fully. It weighed ft oz. Calculating from that datum, (lie field made 2,571 bushels. When the crop was cut it was saved as clean as is usual, and was as cleanly thrashed as any I ever saw ; and yet he only got 1,050 hudiels, which show-ia clear loss ot 1,521 bushels; in other words, he saved about two-fifths and lost three-fifths of the crop. 1 have never known inoro than one half of a crop saved even by the most careful management. It seems to tne that one-fifth, or SK) bushels, in 2,500 would be a heavy loss, hut when it is 1,500 in a crop of 2,500, it is unbearable. | 1 think if you will present this subject | through the Srientifie Ameriean, to the j inventive geniuses of our country, that | some of thrin will probably invent inn ! cbinepy by which tit ia tremendous loss ; will he at least greatly reduced. It may i be proper to say that the wheat was cut : with craiiles, and cut very clean, the j field thoroughly rakeii, and it was I thrashed by an A No. 1 steam thrasher. ' Will the farmers who see this try similar ! experiments nest harvest and note their j losses? Very respectfully, W. K. CONNOR. King.Ueorgc Co., Vs., Jul) 2'.', 1879. We copy the alnivc as an example of the wild figuring and loose asser tion which even intelligent men are ' sometimes misled into. It may lie 1 true that "figures will not lie," but , -Mr. Connor has succeeded in making I them tell souio queer stories. The farmer did not fully ex|K-ot to got ' more than eight hundred and fifty bushels from the field, and his wildest hopes only reached to seventeen hun ; tired, ami yet when the crop was I harvested, anil the actual measure ment reached the respectable average of something mora than a thousand bushels, his neighbor, Mr. Connor, just testifies that it was cut very clean, thoroughly raked and well j thrashed, and then mourns over a loss of three-fifths of the crop. The pro cess by which Mr. Connor arrives at the conclusions which impel him to make his absurd statement is quite as absurd as the statement itself. We cannot think that it would occur to any one but Mr. Connor to "rub out" the wheat which grew upon a single square yard of ground, ami upon the slender basis of its return assert the loss of three-fifths of the crop on the eighty-five acre field of which it was a part, and one-half of the entire crop of the country. Pot sihly Mr. Connor's ncighlmrs in Vir ginia waste one-half of their crops by carelessness in harvesting and thrash ing, but if he will come to Centre county we will show him lictterwork than that. We hope that more of our farmers will try "similar experi ments next harvest." If exjH-rimcnts of this sort are to serve any substan tial end they must lie much more carefully made than was Mr. Connor's • Cultivating Wheat -Once More. Our one aim in the conduct of this department of the DEMOCRAT is to advance the cause of good agricul ture and benefit the farmers of Cen tre county by the inculcation of cor rect agricultural principles and the dissemination of agricultural truths, and not to ventilate any particular theories or hobbies of our own. We arc warm advocates of the practice of cultivating wheat, and have urged u|w>n our readers the importance of making experiment* with a view of ascertaining the precise value of the practice; and in support of this have published accounts of very suc cessful experiments in this direction. That we may not 1m accused of hob by-riding, and in pursuance of our intention to give all sides of all questions a fair hearing, we transfer to our columns below, from the Jiurnl New Yorker, an account of an experiment tried on the "Kural Farm" which would seem to lie con clusive against the practice. Wo do not, however, accept it as such, by any means. Without attempting to explain, or stopping to discuss the reasons for the adverse result of the Rurnl'i experiment, we publish its statement in fairness to our readers, and ufgo them again to try it for themnelret. We hsve lisd during the pwl year a £OOd desl to any aa to the cultivation of wheat. Last Octolier Int wo prepared s piece of land 165x33 feet, or one-eighth of an acre. It plowed, harrowed twice, then broadrsted with bone flour st the rate of 500 |X>un<l* per sere, raked in by hand, marked oil 18x12 inches and three grains of t'lawson wheat planted at the intersections. As soon as the blades were distinguishable two plants were pulled up, lenving only the middle one. Thus there WHS left but one plant for every one and a hslf square foot. The plants tillered re markably, as engravings in our issue of .June 7th have already shown. The straw was very heavy and the heuds nearly twice the size of those of our five-acre field sown broadcast,ns our en graving of an average sized spike wdl show. But many of them were poorly filled j many of them while in the milk and subsequently, were broken over owing to an apparent weakness of the stem near the spike, ns if there alone the stems were not strong enough to support its weight during high winds, j From this plot of one eighth of nn acre | we harvested but one bushel and a half. br at the rate of twelve bushels per | acre, while our average upon the broad ousted field of five acres was 27 1 2 bushels. So far, therefore, as may he | judged by this one experiment, there is j little to be suul in favor of the cultiva tion of wheat. It may he that other varieties or other land would produce l etter yields. It may be that if the ( wheat were planted closer together, a larger yield must result. Oathcrinij Clover Seed. I'l-'M* I tor AuiriKan AtfrU fellunat. It in no Mom i hat clover ntraw can ho mails useful after the seed has been hulled, so that it is a saving of labor to cut it as high as possible, taking only the heads, |ly using the scythe, or cradle, this cannot be done ; and it will ; be found much hotter to u*e a mowing machine, having a table attached to the j cutter bar, or a clover seed gatherer made expressly for this work. * * * Ihe management of the clover fgt i p rop i* very simple. It is improved by frequent welting and drying, as then the seed i more easily hulled, than when it is cured in dry weather. If the weather should be dry, it i* best to rake I he straw, or t lie heads, in to small heaps, letting thein heat moderately j after wards spreading the heaps in the sun to dry. The raking may be done while , ' still wet with dew, which will assist the fermentation, and heating, which part ly rots the hull*, and helps the cleaning. I he crop, when |erfectly dry, after two or three weeks' exposure to the weath- . or, should be stored in a corner of the barn. lor convenience we prefer to use the platform roa|icr with a rake which J can be used at pleasure, anil suffer' the beads to accumulate on the plat form as long as may be convenient, and then dump the piles in rows for convenience in loading. Here we leave them untouched until ready for the team or the thresher, and then carefully lift them to the wagon with , a wooden fork, and with as little turning or moving as possible. When the seed is cured it shells oIT very easily, and a little rough hand ling will insure much waste. Weeds in Connecticut, The legislature of Connecticut passed a sort of "local option" weed law last Winter which we quote la?- low. In reading it, it should lie borne in mind that in New Kngland our word "township" is abbreviat ed into "town," and what wc call i "town" they call "village: " Any town or borough may make by law* requiring every owner or |<o*eesor of lands within its limits adjoining any highway to cut or mow nil hushes, this ! Be* or briars, growing on said highway adjoining, and in front of said lands, at ! least once in each yer, at such time* s* said town or borough may direct, under a penalty not exceeding five dollar* for ! each breach of said by-laws. Surface Water on Heavy Soil. C..rr—poud.nr. of lb. Tit linn. All through the Ocnescc country of Western New York, long time so famous for its superior quantity of Winter wheat, there is n large pro- ' portion of even this favored land that has not been classed as first, quality wheat soil owing to its iro pervious clay subsoil and lack of nat ural drainage. But where a thorough 1 system of tile drainage has been ' taken advantage of, the best results have been obtained. Where such drainage is not available—or in oth er words, Where the farmer cannot afford this extra cx|s-nse —the next liest system must be adopted; and for success in producing an average crop it is Imperative that the surface water should not be allowed to re main on the ground. To insure success as far as may be the ground should lie ploughed into narrow lands, and after wheat-sowing In the Fall the field should bo lightly furrowed where the lands were finish ed when ploughed, and nlso all through the field where depressions would allow water to settle. Where ! such a system of surface drainage is thoroughly carried out, good results may reasonably be expected. The above thoughts were suggested after noticing many fields of wheat that must lie materially injured by surface water during wet Spring weather, where if more care bail been exercised in ftirrowing, our wheat fields would not present these barren, unsightly s|>ota that will be continual remind ers of the "mistakes" we are making from time to time. i "WITH wain* R„<| tiiMunr— ami pot A a ,„| |, alia| And itl.h— of fruit hr, Tin wlfn i if jr.iur bonoin alta all ilay, Auil no oaa ilar"* to bar.

Frufn llutiif* <aiill farm. Five years ago we hail a clover fleM we wished to props.e for wheat. In the latter part of June, the ground living too wet to plow in our corn, we decided to start a plow in the clover field, as it was packed quite hard,and required being pretty wet to do good work. We plowed one day, turning about one and one-half acres directly thro' the centre of the field. Next day we had to go into the corn. Oat harvest . came on. Had no more rain to wet ; the Boil sufficient to plow in our | clover field, until last of September. 1 \N e then finished plowing the field, and rcplowcd about three-fourths of the first plowed strip. We then harrowed, then sow*ed, after which we harrowed twice. Now for the result. In two weeks there was u perceptible difference in the early and late plow | ln K; . 'I his difference continued to in crease as the months wore on, all the time in favor of early plowing. In the month of April the difference was so striking that we were often asked as to the cause. By some we were asked if we had a new kind of wheat I sowed in this strip. hen it came to cutting we meas ured oil on one side of litis strip a jiieoe of same sine. The early plow ing made fifty-eight fine shocks, the other forty-four. We have tried this experiment two or three times since, with the most satisfactory results. Graze as a Renovator, < ..irM|tifii)if ( os luuidr; (• jt! man. Many farmers labor for years igno rant of the fact that acl OM| 11-wct sod is the foundatlon'of good farming and the basis of good crops. Soil that will produce an immediate and firm set of grass w ill bring u good crop of any kind. There is no lu-lter way to test the producing capacity of the soil than by its grass production. If a field yields a scant grass crop and is uneven or full of barren sjiots, it will not be safe to defs-nd on such ■ so' l for any other crop without extra heavy manuring, and even then the crop is not of so great certainty as if the ground was covered with a firm sod at plowing time. There is some thing in a heavy sod that will perfect a crop even in an unfavorable season. 1 never have failed of a good crop on such land. Soil will soon be rcno rated after partial deterioration if grass can be densely set on the sur face; and this mole of renovation, I j claim, is the quickest, surest and I cheapest of any. There never was n mistake made so full of loss to the farmer ns to allow naturally good soil to deteriorate at all; and when . the farmers understand atul act on j this principle our productions will never fall below an avernge, or even to this point. Lime for Poultiy. ; BY S. R. Mono. There are a hundred ways proponed to obtain iiine for eggs, bones, etc., for our hens. Some of these are of the most curious kind. One would sup|>osc that lime was one of the rare substances in this world. Burnt oyster or clam shells, burnt bones, even egg shells themselves, are re commended. Teaching a hen to eat her own eggs is beat done by throw ing the shells to her. How many j folks in the country have oysters or clam shells 7 Then again, gravel— ; hen's teeth—is not as often supplied as it ought to be. A late writer act i ually recommends pounded hita of j gloss, or queenswarc as being bolter than gravel. How strange to see people going so far out of the line of , common sense! Now, both of these very difficult tilings to accomplish for the health of our feathered hi|cds are easily done by making a mortar of small gravel and lime, in the man , ner of stone ms ons, and when the mortar becomes hard, breaking it up small with an axe. Keep this little , piece of "necessity" always before ; the hens and burn all egg shells, and the moral and physical character of the hens and their husbands will tie in the ascendant.
