Every farmer in hit annual crpertenct discovers something of value. It 'rite it and send it to the "Agricultural Editor of the llkmockat, Uellefonte, Penn'a," that other farmers mag hare the benefit of it, het communications be timely, anil be sure that they are brief and wtll /minted. OUR bright contemporary, the Husbandman, seems to be somewhat nettled at the proposed investigation of the agricultural department by the agricultural committee of Con gress. Wherefore? CONGRESS docs care something for the agricultural interests of the country, after all. Just before ad journing for the holidays both houses passed resolutions.providing for the appointment of a joint sub-commit tee of their respective committees of agriculture to investigate the work ings of the agricultural department with a a iew to the extension of its benefits throughout the country. We hazard no guess as to what this investigation may develop, but shall watch its proceedings with interest. BY a private letter received from Mr. W. I. Chamberlain, we "learn that he will not accept the chair of Prof, of Agriculture, tendered him by the Michigan Agricultural College. We congratulate the readers of the leading agricultural journals of the country upon this decision of Mr. Chamberlain, and feel confident that the work which he now does for ag ricultural journalism, furnishes hiui a much larger field of usefulness than he could find in even so good a col lege as that of Michigan. IN the DEMOCRAT of Xovemlier fi, 1879, wc mentioned the premiums offered by the Thurbersof New York, for cheese aud butter salted with the "Higgin's Euraka Salt," and predict ed iliat they would be called upon to pay them all. This prophecy was based upon our personal knowledge erf the good qualities of the Eureka salt, and we are glad that the result lias fulfilled our prediction. The ' sweepstake prizes in both butter and cheese (for best made anywhere) were awarded to lots salted with the Higgin's salt. Another bit of testi mony favorable to this salt is Ihc re sult at the recent Massachusetts But ter Show, which, as shown in a re cently published letter of Professor Alvord, is as follows: "All but tyo of the twelve premium lots were sailed with Higgin's Eureka Salt ; one pf the two with the American Dairy Co.'s salt, and the other kind of salt was not stated. This may be variously explained, but the fact de serves notice." Pruning the Orchard. There is no better time in the whole year for pruning trees than just now, and the suggestion in the following paragraph is timely : "In pruning trees, all stems half an inch or more in diameter, should be covered with some water proof substance like grafting-wax or shel lac, ot the consistency of cream. The bark and outer wood will thus be preserved and the wound will in a season or so be covered with a new bark. If this precaution IKS not taken, the end of the brnnch will decay from wind, rain, beat and cold." '"Book-Fanning." To those who refuse to subscribe to agricultural journals, or buy agri cultural books, on the ground that it "does not pay," and that they do not ljcllcve In "book-farming," we com mend the following from the Ameri can Agriculturist ; "It docs pay, always, to read about what others do, and say, and think, in the same line of work or business. If one does not find direct information specially applicable to bis own work, yet the thoughts and methods of others incite new thoughts and plans in the reader's own mind that lead to profitable re sults. The reading, thinking man, makes his head help his hands. Brains tell everywhere, and in noth ing more than In farming, gardening, and housekeeping. And the fewer brains one has, or thinks be has, the more anxious should he be to get all the tacts and suggestions he can from other people's thinking and ex perience," How to Mauage the Manure Heap. The manure pile has been truth fully called the "fanner's bank," and how to manago it most successfully is a problem well worth studying, in "Talks on Manuros," published by the Orange Jndd Company, Jos eph Harris tells how he deals with this subject and his plan id so sim ple and so easily adopted by every farmer that we copy a portion of it for our readers. There is no better time to study this whole manure sub ject than in the leisure of winter, and it would amply repay every thinking farmer to send for this work of Mr. Harris', and devote the spare time of the remaining winter even ings to it. There is no man in the country better able to speak with au thority on this mutter than Mr. Har ris : "The real point of dillerence be tween my plan of managing manure, and the plan adopted by the Deacon, is essentially this: I aim to keep all my manure in a compact pile, where it will slowly ferment all winter. The Deacon throws his horse-manure into a heap, just outside the stable door, and the cow-manure into anoth er heap, ami the pig mauurc into an other heap. These heaps are more or less scattered, and are exposed to the rain, and snow, and frost. The horse-manure is quite likely to fer ment too rapidly, and if in a large heap, ami the weather is warm, it not unlikely 'fire-fangs' in the center of the heap. On the other hand, the cow-manure lies cold and dead, und during the winter freezes into solid lumps. "I wheel or cart all mymunure into one central heap. The main object is to keep it as compact as |>osßible. There are two advantages in this: Ist, the manure is less exposed to the rain, and (id), when freezing weather sets in, only a few inches of the ex ternal portion of the heap is I ha*'c practiced this plan for sever al years, and can keep my heap of manure slowly fermenting the whole winter. "Hut in order to ensure this result, it is necessary to begin making the heap before the winter sets in. The plan is this: "Having selected the spot in the pard most convenient tor making the heap, collect nil the manure that can be found in the sheep-yards, sheds, cow and horse-stables, pig.pens, and hen-house, together with leaves, weeds ami refuse from the garden, and wheel or cart it to the intended heap. If you set a farm-man to do the work, tell him you want to make a hot-bed aliout live feet high, six feet wide, and six feet long. Ido not think I have ever seen a farm where enough material could not be found, say in November, to make such a heap. And this is all that is needed. If the manure is rich, if it is obtained from animals eating clov er-hay, bran, grain, or oilier food rich in nitrogen, it will soon ferment. But if the manure is poor, consisting largely of straw, it will be very de sirable to make it richer by mixing with it bone-dust, blood, lieu-drop pings, woollen rags, chamber-lye, and animal matter of any kind that you can find. "The richer you can make the ma nure, the more readily will it fer ment. A good plan is to take the horse or sheep manure, a few weeks previous, ami use it for licdding the pigs. It will absorb the liquid of the pigs, and make rich manure, which will soon ferment when placed in a heap. "If the manure in the heap is too dry, it is a good plan, when you are killing hogs, to throw oij to the ma nure all the warm water, hair, blood, intestines, etc. You may think lam making too much of such a simple matter, but 1 have bad letters from farmers who have tried this plan of managing manure, and they say that i they can not keep it from freezing. | One reason for this is that they do , not start the heap early enough, and do not take pains to get the manure ; into an active fermentation liefore winter sets in. Much depends on this. In starting a fire, you take pains to get a little fine, dry* wood, that will burn readily, and when the fire is fairly going, put on larger sticks, and presently you have aucli a fire that you can burn wood, coal, stubble, sods, or anything you wish. And so It la with a manurc-hcap. Get the fire, or fermentation, or, more strictly awaking, putrefaction fairly started, and there will be little tronble, if the heap is large enough, and fresh material is added from time to time, of continuing the fer mentation all winter. "Another jioint to be observed, and especially in cold weather, is to keep the sides of the heap straight and the top level. You must expose the manure in the heap as little as possi blc to frost and cold winds. The rule should lie to spread every wheel barrowful of manure as soon as it is put on the heap. If left uuspread on top of the heap, it will freeze; and if afterwards covered with other manure it will require considerable heat to melt it, and thus reduce the temperature of the whole heap. "It is far leas work to manage a heap of manure in this way than may be supposed from my descrip tion of the plan. The truth is, I And, in point of fact, that it is not an easy matter to manage manure in this way ; and I fear not one far mer in ten will succeed the first win ter lie undertakes it, unless lie gives it his personal attention. It is well worth trying, however, because if your heap shall freeze up, it will la st any rate in no worse condition than if managed in the ordinary way; and if you do succeed, even "in part, you will have munure in good condition for immediate use in the spring." Feeding Calves. Professor E. W. Stewart is giving the readers of the Rural Mew Yorker the benefit of his views and experi ences in stock raising in a series of able papers. From the current num ber we make an extract of unusual value, devoted to the feeding of calves, and next week shall give the Professor's ideas of fattening cattle : The proper winter-feeding of calves is first in order. As we have just seen in reference to growing beef, the rapid growth of the young animal is of the greatest importance. Farm ers, then, cannot afford to whiter their calves in an indifferent manner, keeping them, as is too frequently the case, in a state of suspended growth tdl grass conies again, rely ing upon that to give them thrift. It costs two-thirds as much to keep calves in winter wiihoutany increase in weight, as it does to make a fine growth. The gain in full feeding all comes from one-third 6f the food— two-thirds being expended to keep the calf alive without loss. Is it not, therefore, very bad economy to throw away two-thirds of the food required to make a good growth, in order to save the last third ? All growth comes from the last third of the food in a full ration. When far mers fully understand this, they will cease to throw away food in starving young cattle. Some farmers arc careless even in keeping the calf the first summer, allowing it to gather all its food in a poor pasture after the short season of milk feeding. The calf thus takes 011 a stunted condi tion liefore winter comes. In such case the greatest skill is required to change this condition into one of thrift, and if it be not done, it would lie much more profitable to skin the calf in the fall than to keep it in that stand-still condition, for its food through the winter will cost more than the calf is worth in the spring. Having treated in a previous article upon the importance of warm, well vcntilnted stables, it will be under stood that calves are to have cooitw table quarters. And, if the calves have come to winter-quarters in poor condition, the best food to start them when it can be had is six or eight quarts of skimmed milk with two quarts of oats anil one pound of lin seed oil-meal per day, with good hay. This ration for four to six weeks will start any calf in Reccmlier that is not past recovery. Hut it will not often happen thut the farmer has milk at this season of the year, so wc must give a ration that is not dif ficult to obtain. Most farmers have corn meal and oats, and linseed oil meal is obtainable in almost any part of the country. Give each poor calf two pounds of corn meal, two pounds of oats, and one |>ound of oil meal |>er day, in two feeds. This, with good clover hay or rowen, will soon change the thrift of the calf. Per haps the farmer will say lie cannot afford it; well, then lie cannpl afford to keep calves at all. This feed for 150 days will cost aliout seven dol lars, as an average—in the West somewhat less. Now, calves with this ration ought to gain at least 300 pounds; whereas, if only fed hay, iieing poor on the start, they will not gain anything in weight. Will not these 300 pounds' gain in weight witli the greater value per |K>iui(f of the whole animal, be full com|K>nsa tion for this extra expenditure? This extra weight and condition will more than double the value of the calf in spring. If the calves come to winter feeding in good, thrifty condition they wilt winter finely upon two quarts of oats and one pound of oil meal. I mention the oil meal be cause of its sanitary value in keep ing the stomach and bowels in a healthy condition. Hut if it ia not cosy to obtain it feed three quarts of oats per day to each calf with good hay, and you bring it tiirougb finely. If you have not oata, but corn and good clover hay, feed three pints of corn meal or shelled corn on a thin layer of hay in the manger; or, bet ter, if you have wheat bran and corn meal, feed two quarts of bran and one quart of corn meal mixed in two feeds. If you live near grape-sugar works your calves may lie fed still cheaper on four quarts of sugar meal and one pound of oil meal with hay, or the sugar meal with one quart of oats per day. The sugar meal (9 not a complete food in itself and should always be fed with a small portion of other grain. But whatever ration, you adopt, feed liberally; in that will lie found the most profit. For heifcra intended for the dairy I have not given different rations from those for calves intended for beef, because they both require nitrogenous rations to grow the frame and muscles, and I have not given excessive ration that would injure young heifers in tended for breeding. LANCASTER and Hurkscounties will get about four million dollars for their tobacco crop tliis year.—Ex change. That's all right, provided they don't run the business to the extreme of impoverishing their land so that it will not produce tobacco or anything else, as many Connecticut farmers have done. What the Different Breeds are Good For. Or. Il'iitl*, lit tin* liit'Thtiotiul Dairy Fair; It is u positively settled fact, that each of the thoroughbred breeds of cows are better in the linen of tbeir special fitness to yield large and val uable producta than common or much mixed cows can be for any pur[>OHe. Therefore, in intelligent breeding, it is always wise to breed for a special purpose. Thus, if we desire a large quantity of inilk for retail delivery, we must improve our common cow for that pur|>ose by mingling with the better blood; for this object, the llolHteinor Dutch cow is the best. So, also, ii we desird butter, we must go to the Jersey for the best blood to mix with our common breed to secure this desirable produet of the best quality. To secure the greatest quantity and quality of cheese, we must in like manner go to the Ayrshire blood to secure this object. If wc wish beautiful oxen for light work, or small fine bones, the blood of the Devons will fill these require ments. Hut if we wish large steers for mountains of beef of first class quality, we must seek the blood of the magnificent Short Horns, or that of the equally good llerefords. Tins knowledge is most useful and profitable to the farmer, dairyman and herdsmen. For each in his voca tion can so practice upon it as that it shall yield to him the largest profit The Experiment Btation in Every State Prom th* Burol Nor Y<>rkT. That iteration and reiteration have much virtue in securing at length the object sought, has been repeatedly proven lioth IK- fore and since the date of the parable of the unjust judge. Hence we once more insist upon the necessity of having in the State, nnd in every State in which such Institu tions have not already been estab lished, an Experiment Station, to which each farmer may send samples of fertilizers to be tested. Periods of Milking. rrora llir Aumrirta Agrimtliirul. A cow that ia milked three timet a day will give more milk and yield more ••ream than one that it milked at inter val* of twelve hours. When the udder i filled a prooese ol abaor|Aion goe* on and part of the milk aeoreted is thu lost. It will pay to take the milk from copious milkers at intervals of eight hours as nearly as |>ossihle. A cow that is milked t five in the morning, one in the afternoon, and nine at night, will yield from ten to twenty per cent, more milk and more cream than if milked twice a day. Feeding Milch Cows. The Onondaga Milk Association, of New York, conclude that "corn anil oats, ground and mixed in equal quan tilies, make the most valuable meal, and a given quantity of aueh meal is worth more than any other." far. sen poultry fanciera who make a specialty of raising fowls for the market, are now feeding their poultry with bar ley aud steamed carrots lu rapid fat tening qualities are something wonder ful, and it ia said that the root also imparts a peculiar flavor to the flesh that suits the taste of the French epicure exactly. The laree yellow carrots are considered beat for this purpose. THE farmer cultivate* hi* farm in summer, and it yield* a bountiful crop of grain.

Itank weeds will grow up and smother all that is valuable. WHEAT will shrink two quarts to the bushel in six months, a fact that has a bearing u|ion what is the best time to market. Forty cents a bushel for new corn is equal to fifty cents the following March. FARM stock must always be re garded as the best capital a farmer can have, for it furnisliea the manure by which rich harvests are secured ; and through these good husbandry creates the capital which ia needed u|>on the farm. ONE-HALF ounce of salt to the pound of butter is the rule for salting adopted by the makers of the cole rbated "trade-mark" lump butter, which sells for a fancy price in Bos ton. IT is not good luck that makes good crops, but it is good work. Itrains and hands must combine to do the work. AN establishment near Paris works 30 incubators, and up to September of this year has "turned out" 43,000 chicks. IN winter kill poultry three days to s week before cooking. Among Our Contemporaries. The Country Gentleman has for twenty nix years published an Annua' Register of Rural Affairs under the continuous edi torial charge of its enunciate editor, John fl Thomas. To a certain extent this Annual is a reprint of some of the best things which have appeared in the Country Gentleman, revised for the pur pose, but a very large proportion of the ■natter it contains is prepared for it hy specialist* in the matters of which they treat. It is an exceedingly valuable little work, and should be in the hands of every professional farmer. No. 20, containing 244 pages of excellent letter press, and no less than 130 engraving*, is on our table by the courtesy of the publishers. It is sent free to every subscriber to the Country Gentleman. These Annuals are gathered into Trien nial Volumes, under the title of Rural Affairs, without either calender or ad verlising pages, and the eight volumes now issued form one of the most com plete and valuable agricultuial libraries.
