AT the regular meeting of the El
mira Farmer's Club, held Nov. 22d,
the relative merits of hill and drill
planting of corn were discussed at
considerable length, and the drill sys
tem carried the day without any real
opposition.
Expose RE of cows to cold and
storm, with scrimped feeding, not
only causes shrinkage of milk now,
if they are in milk, but even if "dry"
tends to lesson the yield of milk and
butter for.next season. It will pay
to keep all the stock in good, thriv
ing condition.
KX-CoNORKSSMAN JollN 15. I\\<K
KU, of Sunbury, who has many rela
tives in this county, is spoken of by
the QazeUf-Amrricaii as a "model
farmer." The farm which gives him
this reputation is the very line one
comprising the island at the junction
of the north and west branches of
the Susquehanna.
HKPORTS of the good growth of
wheat reach us from all parts of the
country, notwithstanding the drouth
which has prevailed so generally, and
the ravages of the tly. The acreage
is also somewhat increased, and the
outlook is as good as can well lie at
this season for a large crop. I.et us
Itear this in mind, and note whether
the outcome will correspond.
COARSE grain is cheap and hay is
high; suppose we try wintering our
horse stock with a little more grain
than usual, finely chopped, and fed
with hay and straw mixed and cut
short. We believe that It will prove
cheaper than the usual feed of corn
on the ear, with all the hay they can
cat, and that the Btock will come out
in the spring all the better for the
change.
AT the election of otliccrs of the
National tirange, which occurred at
Canandaigua, on Saturday of last
week, Mississippi carried off the
honors, having three prominent otli
ccrs awarded to her. Kansas, Mich
igan and New York followed with
two of each, and the lernainder of
the fifteen were distributed in single
lots to other States. Pennsylvania
was entirely ignored.
ONCE more we want to say that it
is an easy matter to have fresh laid
eggs at this season, and we can prove
it by the nice bask*d full which comes
in from our own nam and sheds
every evening. A variety of food,
(the staples of which are a warm
iness made from dish water and the
scra|is from the table, boiled tip, and
thickened with a mixture of bran,
and oats and corn chopped together
for the morning feed ; and equal
]>arU of w hole corn and wheat screen
ings at evening,) plenty of broken
bones ami lirnc, a never-failing su|e
ply of fresh water, good warm quar
ters, clean nests, and convenient dust
baths, do the business. Potato par
ings boiled up with the morning mess
furnish a portion of green food, and
when this is insufficient, wo hang a
head of cabbage up by the root at
such a height as the hens can just
reach, and let them enjoy themselves
with this. Eggs are always scarce
and high-priced just at this season,
and a little care and painstaking
pays a much lnrgcr per contage now
than at any other time. There are
special breeds advertised as "winter
layers"—and some do lay better than
others—but you will find that just
such care as this will make winter
layers of whatever breed you may
happen to have; and that the best
winter-layers in the world won't pro
duce an egg once a week if com
pelled to roost in apple trees or upon
sheds, go without water from day to
day until a "thaw" happens to make
it convenient for thcin to And, and
stuffed on whole corn at such irregu
lar times as it may occur to some
one to feed them.
DR. A. M. DICKIE, who edits the
Poultry page in the Farm Journal,
is pleased to speak of our agricultur
al editor as "level-headed." Well,
ami why shouldn't he be? lie reads
the Journal regularly. Do you see ?
LANCASTER papers report a very
comfortable state of affairs for the
tobacco growers in that county. All
who are willing to sell find ready
(customers at their doors who are
anxious to pay them cash down for
their entire crop and at higher rates
than even the most hopeful anticipat
ed. It is said that on some days
the tobacco buyers make such numer
ous demands on the livery stables of
Lancaster city for conveyances, as
to leave them almost without horses
or vehicles.
DR. E. L. SITRTKVANT is writing
for Land ami Ifmnr a series of pa
pers under the title of "How to grow
one hundred bushels ol corn per
acre," from which we shall, as the
corn season approaches, take the lib
erty of making such short extracts
as the space at our command will ad
mit of. In regard to seed, Dr. S.
says that <joo<l seed cannot be had,
but strenuously urges that we get
the best obtainable. This is highly
important and should Is- looked after
at once. Even passably good seed,
carefully selected ami well-cared for,
will l>e a great improvement upon
the major portion of that usually
planted, uml is a/icay* hard to find.
Look about you and secure the first
lot you can lay your hands on. He
fore planting time the DEMOCRAT
will again have a word to say as to
the importance of raising a lot of
corn under the lest circumstances
and with the greatest care, specially
for seed. •
How to Make and Keep Saunage.
NN t- find the follow ing receipts in
the current number of the Farm
Journal, and give them to our readers
because we have tested them ami
know them to be excellent. Last
winter we packed two or three jar-,
prepared in this way, in the center of
the ice house, us we were tilling it.
and when taken out and used in Au
gust and Septenilier, it was superb:
Take, for sausage, 55 pounds of
|>ork —no beef, mind—use one |>ouml
of salt, six ounces of good black and
a teaspoonful of cayenne pepper;
mix the ingredients and work thor
oughly through the meat. Sage docs
not improve it. He sureaml chop line.
If the meat is neither very fat nor
very lean no better sausage is brought
to the Philadelphia market, nor con
sumed in any farm house, than that
made by the above rcci|>e. No 1s t
tcr material for sausage can be found
than an old fat sow. We have this
last point from one who has followed
the business of making sausage for
over twenty years.
Use small well-baked cartheu pots ;
take a handful of sausage, made a*
aliovc, press firmly into the pot, then
another and another until the pot is
in an oven
1
'*^■l
—thai is, if there are eight pounds
bake two hours, etc.—ami w hen done
place a weight on the sausage until
it is cold ; remove the weight ami
fill the pot with hot lard. Place up
side down on a shelf in a dark, dry
corner of the cellar until wanted ;
then put it into tin* oven for a very
short time to inelt the lard which sur
rounds the meat; remove the sau
sage from the pot and when cold
slice them for the table; or some
like it one-quarter inch thick and
made as above.
More Enlightened Management.
Th<* necessities of the times, when all
agricultural industry is making ouch rapid
trid<-*, inure than ever before call* for ihe
education of the farmer vouth. To keep
pace in this social ami political progress;
to oo|ic with merchants nd manufacturers
, in handling the soil products ; to prnfiuldy
i increase the quantity and improve the
t quality of all cr<q>s ; to enable them to
compete successfully with their competitors
—this will, and due* now, require all the
knowledge, tact iwid common-sense obtain
able. Our farmers are beginning to see
the necessity of belter and more enlight
ened management.
We copy the above paragraph from
bind and Home. It is all true; and
the quicker we, as farmers, realize its
truth and importance, and begin to
make efforts toward the Increase of
our knowledge, the better it will be
for ns. No better opportunity has
ever liecn offered the farmers of Cen
tre county for the acquisition of
knowledge adapted to their es|>ecial
needs titan the course of lectures to
tie given at the College next month,
which was fully explained in the
DEMOCRAT of November 27. We
trust that every one who possibly
can will avail theinselvea of the gen
erous arrangement made by the Col
lege.
Cleanliness in the Dairy.
•
One of the leading editoriid articles
in the American Pniryman for Novem
ber 27 is under the title of "What is
Cleanliness?" and treats of the sub
ject in its relations to milking and
the care of milk, and butter making.
We arc convinced that the need of
admonition upon this matter is quite
as observable among those w ho keep
only cows enough for the family sup
ply of milk and hultcr, as in the large
dairies, and we (plots; from the hairy
maii'* article such paragraphs as we
can find room for :
We lined to HnprnMi upon nil (Inirvumn

Orchard and Garden Work.
American Ajl nlinrio
This month completes the circle of
the year ; we leave otf, tnucli as we
lwgtin, with looking forward. Every
gardener, as will us every farmer,
wi/rks with full faith in the return of
"seed time and harvest." These al
ways cotuh, but if their coming is
somewhat different from the manner
in which tlie experience of previous
years have t.uight us to hsok for, we
call it a remarkable or unusual sea
son, and forgetting that the great
promise has never yet failed, wc are
too apt to grumble if it is not ful
filled as we would have it. The au
tumn has indeed !■* n an unusual,
but- thus far altogether a favorable
one. The evils of ihe departure from
the average season are mainly possi
ble, and may yet be averted, while
tin* liencfifs have been numerous,
lie must lie a poor gardener who has
not, in the sunny days of Oetolnw
and a part of November, greatly les
sened the amount of work to IN* done
at the o|icning of spring. The few
snow flurries, and the rejiorts of
heavy snows at. the north nnd west,
remind ns that the warm weather,
and with it the out-door work, is now
(the second week in November) well
nigh nt an end, and no doubt this
will IK* read at the cheerful fireside.
The long-looked for opjiortunity lias
come. We have promised that we
would look tip this, and read nbout
that, ami now the promise to do these
"when we had time" can lie kept.
There is time which may lie made
most precious by reading, reflecting,
and planning. There is scarcely a
special culture, whetlier of farm or
garden crops, but has one or more
treatises devoted to it, while general
works, and those which discuss the
principles which underlie all culture,
are many. There nre books and
books, but it is rare, indeed, that at
the present day a book is not worth
all it costs, if not in direct teachings,
at least in the suggestions it imparts
and the thoughts it awakens. Hooks
giving the thoughts and the exig
ences of others arc most useful com
panions; there arc other books which
should lie made our companions—
blank books iu which to record our
own exiieriences, especially those
which may lie expressed in dollars
and ocnts. A liook for accounts and
business memoranda is of no less
value to the gardener and orchardist
than to the farmer, as the details are
far more numerous and burden the
mind. If such a book has not here
tofore been kept, make a beginning
at once.

How to Grow Good Corn.
Oil. Ciirti* In tli* It it rM I .Nrw V<*tk*r,
The best piece of corn grown in
our neighborhood belongs to .Mr.
Vcedcr. It was manured in the hill
with well rotted barnyard manure.
A small shovelful was thrown into
the hill, 011 which the seed was (hop
ed. The corn came up rank und
vigorous, and grew rapidly. It kept
ahead of other corn all the season.
We are convinced that it is the best
plan to apply manure directly to the
roots of plants, or, in other words,
to so place it that the roots of plants
can feed upon it us soon as they be
gin to grow. An early start is a
good start, hence it is advisuhle in
sowed crops to harrow the manure
in. .Mr. \ coder's corn field was an old
meadow not particularly rich. The
crop w as thoroughly cultivated, which
helped largely to make it such a good
one. There is no doubt but that it
would pay every farmer well to pre
pare a compost, especially for his
corn crop, and put t in the hills
The line manure could Is; set apart
for this purpose. In it should Is
he mixed the contcuts of the privies
and chamber wastes ami soap-suds.
A quantity of plaster—sulphate of
lime—should Is- throw n over the pile
frequently, and mixes I through it
from time to time to prevent the es
cape of the grass, j'lenty of plaster
will also make the compost dry and
in a condition to be handled. The
hen manure shouhl IK* carefully sav
ed, und may Is- added, mixed with
plaster, so that its volatile pnqs-rties
shall not he lost. A little pains
taking on the part of farmers at the
beginning of winter ami during the
season when they have plenty of
leisure, will enable them to accumu
late a quantity .of com|s>sl which
will cost them but a trifle, and which
will insure them a good crop of corn.
The same kind of compost will be
valuable for a root or any other kind
of crop, but particularly for corn,
owing to the fact that it grows in
hills and requires a good start if a
fine crop is cxjs'cted. We believe
that a handful of this compost put
into a hill, with frequent ami thor
ough cultivation—and by cultivation
we mean with a horse and cultiva
tor—w ill produce als iter crop on
ordinary land than plowing under a
liberal coat of manure with a lack of
cultivation. The compost pile should
lie kept in a dry place where it will
not !• leached by rains, and where
it can Is- turned over occasionally.
Tie- U* of Electricity in Agriculture.
Ff ti th' \ner> an Kg'
A French farmer is reported as
havingsuc cssfully CXJH rimciited with
an electric motor, in plowing and
other work. This is a promising in
novation, es|s;clally where a water
|wywer could Is- utilized within a mile
of the farm. The waterfall in the
case mentioned is used to run a
Gramme machine of 2 horse power;
a cable of three-fifth* of a mile is
employed to convey the current to
the lmrn, where it is made to run the
fishier cutters, threshing machine,
root smashers, and other machine*,
by fixed apparatus, and by |>ortal>lc
apparatus to do field work. A jor
tahle machine, with a coil of wire to
convey the motive power, is all that
is needed to carry the electricity
wherever it may I*' desired. As to
its feasibility, no certain judgment
can as yet Is- made; but if electricity
is ever used as a motive fores', its
applicability to farm work is unques
tionable. under certain c iteurastancea.
I/k Well to Yonr Hrrda.
Ff ■' 'he
Every good farmer who does any
part "of his own work can put in his
time to the l**st advantage by taking
care of bis own stock, and let the
hi ml help do the straight work in
the field or woods, for not one hired
man in ten can le intrusted with the
care of stock in the winter time,
either from a lack of judgment or the
want of care or both. To Is- a good
hand with stock a man must like the
business nnd have some interest in it.
lie must be gentle and kind, and then
the stock will like him nnd they will
get along first-rate together. A howl
ing wild, uncultivated fellow has no
business taking rare of stock.

There are no inflexible rules in ag

almost any other business, requires
