Krery farmer in his annual experience
discovers somethiny of value. Write it ami
send il to the " Agricultural Editor of the
DEMOCRAT, Hellefonte, Penn'a," that other
farmers map hare the benefit of it. Let
communications be timely, mid be sure thai
they are brief and well pointed.
Si'RiNU mud is apt to start "foul
* lioof' among the neat cattle, and if
allowed to get nhead it proves trou
blesome to the owner, as well as ex
ceedingly painful to the patient. A
couple of cases occurred in our own
yard a few days since, but prompt
treatment with a mixture of pine tar,
carbolic aoid, and sulphur, after
thorough cleansing, showed its good
effects immediately, and effected a
complete cure in four days.
WE should think that seven cents
per pound ought to purchnse nails
which would hold together long
enough to be driven through some
thing thicker and harder than an inch
pine board, but it seems we are mis
taken. Last week we were trying to
utilize some old split rails, by mak
ing some of the "Oliver Patent
Fence" noticed in our issue of Feb
ruary 2G, and new nails, purchased
for the purpose, and some of them as
large as 20d, flew to bits as though
they were cast iron. We partially
obviated the difficulty by keeping an
old fruit can tilled with oil at hand,
and dipping each nail in this before
attempting to drive it. Nail-makers
get price enough now to warrant
them in using something better than
cinder as the base of their manufac
tures.
THE DEMOCRAT acknowledges the
receipt, by mail, of a small package
of choice plants from Mr. J. T. Lov
ett, Little Silver, Monmouth county,
N. J. Among them arc the Sharp
less Strawlierry and Cuthbert Ras|>-
berry, regarding which so many good
things are being said by eminent
horticulturists. Mr. Lovett's method
of (lacking plants for shipment b£
mail, in damp moss and oiled paper,
seems to be as near perfect as may
be, as, after their long trip, onrs
arrived in as good condition as though
they had been just taken out of the
ground.
Mr. Joseph Harris, of Rochester,
N. Y., has also placed us under obliga- j
tions for a package of his well-known
"Morcton Farm" seeds. We have
already had occasion to speak of the
good qualities of Mr. Harris' seeds,
which we have heretofore proven, by
personal use, to be always fresh and
reliable.
MESSRS. 11. J. BAKER k BRO., of
New York, send us their circular of
Forrester's complete manures, and
call our attention particularly to that
made expressly for the potato crop.
While we believe that no chemical
fertilizers can ever be used success
fully as substitutes for well-made and
well-kept stable manure, from prop
erly fed animals, we do think that
this, used as land manure, may be
profitably supplemented, in many cases,
by these, as special crop manures.
There is bat little danger of our
manuring too much, if we use all the
stable manure we can make, and add
all the special fertilizers we can afford
to buy. Among the palpable advan
tages to be gained by the use of good
commercial fertilizers would be ab
sence of weed seeds; economy of
transportation and application, by
reason of their concentrated strength ;
and prompt returns, because, being
finely ground and in soluble form,
they are immediately available. The
subject is well worthy the attention of
progressive farmers, and is receiving
it very largely. Possibly we shall
make some experiments in this direc
tion daring the coming season, and if
ao, will give the DEMOCRAT'S readers
the benefit of them.
Since writing the above paragraph,
the American Agriculturist, for April
has appeared, devoting nearly one
page to a very interesting tabulated
statement of the results of field ex
periments with fertilizers in 1878 and
1879, and the remainder of thia page
and the whole of another in explain
ing the details of a continuation of
these experiments for the coming
year. These experiments were begun
under the auspices of the Agriculturist
in 187$, continued Inst year, and will
1)0 continued this. They are not
made by persons connected with the
pn|)er, nor by those interested in
selling the fertilizers, but by any
farmers, anywhere, who see proper to
undertake them, upon a plan propos
ed by the Agricultural, nnd under
arrangements made by its publishers 1
with several leading houses, to furnish
sets of bags of different fertilizers for
this purpose at cost. The firm of 11.
J. Baker and Bro., whom we mention
ed above, are one of the firms with
whom this arrangement has been
made. In another column we quote
a portion of the Agriculturist's article j
to show the reasons it gives for pro
posing these experiments, and sug
gest that any who are interested in
the matter send to 245 Broadway,
New York, for a copy of the April
number.
IT is with extreme regret that we
learn of the failure of Land nnd
Home , a farm journal whose advent
in the agricultural periodical world
we announced less than a year ago.
Iu mentioning its demise we would ,
very much like to quote
KM*I din young,''
if it were not for fear that some of
our old and substantial contemporar
ies would feel themselves called upon
—though never so unwarrantably—
to think that to them we apply
"Ilut thonn vrtiiM# I'm nrr dry Hummer's lut
Hum t tlm porknl."
The publishers assign "lack of
capital" as their reason for the fail
ure, nnd it must have been this, for
really we could discern no "lack" in
the paper itself. Its corps of writers
were of the very cream of the coun
try. It was couducted with surpris
ing njigiiiality ami ability. Its me
chanical execution was simply per
fect. For his financial losses we ten
der our condolences to its enterpris
ing editor nnd publisher, Mr. Libby,
hut out chief regrets go to its read
ers, who are the chief losers.
Extracts and Comments.
However we may esteem other fruits,
the apple is the main reliance in late
winter or curly spring. n there is little
else in the way of fresh fruits. For
cooking, no fruit i equal to the apple,
which is susceptible of being served in
a ft feat variety of acceptable forms.—
American Ayrievlfnrisl.
I>o not fail to set out a few good
trees this spring, or graft some of
the "natural fruit" stauding about
in out "of the way places with scions
procured from some tree which you
know to 1k of a disirnble variety.
We will never have too tnucb good
fruit.
1 challenge any man to show that a
farmer who has plenty of early cut hay.
and will give his cows all they will eat,
can get in return one extra dollar's
worth of butter, by feeding them 100
lbs. of meal.— Vor. of Jt'onn, farmer.
That is a challenge which it seems
to us should receive some attention
from butter-making farmers. With
butter at thirty-three cents per pound
—and we notice it quoted at that fig
ure in the same paper from which we
cut this |Miragraph—it would require
but three pounds to get the dollar
out of the corn meal. It seems to
us that a cow whose feed is only hay
and meal should be able to take more
than one pound oT butter from thirty
three pounds of meal.
THE value of yard-manure depends
on a great many different circum
stances, —on the kind of food with
which the animals are fed ; whether
it is left exposed to the action of the
weather, its goodness evaporated by
the actiou of the and winds, or
washed away by falling rains; wheth
er the liquid portions are saved by
the use of absorbents which become
the medium for conveying it to the
fields; and whether means are taken
to increase the quality as well as the
quantity.
Ir yon want your chicks to grow
fast feed them on oatmeal scalded
with sweet or sour milk. Don't
make the feed wet or sloppy, nor
give more at once than will lie eaten
up clean. Only prepare as much at
once fin will be all eaten before any
fermentation takes place in it.
Where oatmeal cannot be had fine
cornmcal or cracked wheat similarly
treated and administered will answer
a very good purpose.
THIS matter of reclaiming worn
out lands is not explained in a sen
tence, under all circumstances, but
when a man wants to bring up bis
land without manure, yon can tell
him the best wav in these two words,
"sow clover." lie can't sow It amiss ;
besides, it Is the cheapest manure to
lie bad even at ten dollars a bushel
for seed.
Catalogues, &c., Received.
Mwrs. A. D, OowHti & Co., of 114
Chamber* itreet, Now York, have favored
us with their send catalogue and price list.
This is a new firm,the individual members
of which have had extensive experience as
seedsmen and market gardeners, and are,
therefore, well ijualilied to properly con
duct the business. Thov seem to start out
fully impressed with the importance of
sending only fresh and genuine seeds, and
as a new and very advantageous item in
the business, propose sending sumpies of
staple seeds free of charge, thus allowing
an opportunity of testing their germinat
ing powers before buying.
Experiments in Pig-Feeding.
INDIAN USA I. A V AI.I'ABLE PART OP TIIF. RA
TION —00011 MATERIAL WASTED IN COBS.
From tl© N'W York Tribune.
Mr. J. \V. Sanborn lias published
the results of his third annual series
of experiments at the New Hampshire
College Farm on the relative value
of corn and cob meal, clear Indian
meal and middlings fed with skim
milk to pigs. The following table
exhibits the cost in cents per pound
of growth produced by the meal in
each of the three periods during
which thttexperrment was continued :

In the third period the trial of
corn and cob ineul was, for necessary
reasons, discontinued. Mr. Sanborn
states that this is the first time in the
course of three years' experiments
that the' increase on middlings alone
has been greater thnn on corn meal
and middlings, nnd that the average
of his results for the three years has
shown that middlings is nearly U per
cent, more valuable than Indian meal,
and thai it is l.'i per cent, better than
Western meal; and that the differ
ence in favor of middlings is tnuch
larger still, if the greater value of the
manure is taken into account. With
regard to this comparison of Eastern
and Western ineal, we may remind
our readers of the fact recently set
forth in The Tribune that so far as
! chemical composition goes there is
practically no difference between
Eastern and Western corn ; and if
Eastern meal is found in practice to
| lie so much better than Western it
must be simply la-cause it is cleaner.
In these experiments Mr. Sanborn
| allowed, 011 the b*>sis of results of
previous experiments, one pound of
| the increase in the first period for
; every twelve quarts of milk, and for
! every sixteen quarts in the second
period. This subtraction being made
there was left the following increase
' in pounds for every hundred pounds
! of grain :

In the fourth period the three lots
of pigs were fed on corn meal alone,
and gained nearly 23 pounds on 100
of grain. If we consider how nftch
material is aununlly thrown away in
' the cobs of the vast corn crojm of
this country, the highly favorable
showing for cob meal in these ex|H*r
iyicnts acquires a new significance.
! Almost as good results as these were
obtained by a Farmers' Club com
mittee in Connecticut in some feed
i ing experiments that were continued
a little over two months ; 100 |>ounds
of corn meal yielding 23 pound* of
increase, and 100 pounds of eorn-and
cob meal 21.fi pounds ; a lot of pigs
that were at the same time fed with
whole corn produced but 18.3 |K>unds
,on 100 of gcain. Mr. Sanborn's pigs
had a better ration in the additional
I milk, and therefore thrived better
| than the Connecticut pigs.
Aliout ten years ago Dr. Miles per
formed a series of experiments on
feeding corn meal alone to pigs, and
in five series of experiments, each ex
tending through three or four periods
of growth, the nvcrage increase on
100 pounds of meal was 23,21.1,20.7,
23.3 and 22 pounds respectively. It
is interesting to see how the increase
in weight that can be produced by a
a pig on corn meal diet rnns up to
about the same figure in all these ex
peri incuts. The liettcr results obtain
ed by Mr. Sanborn with corn meat
and milk, especially in the early
stages of growth, simply confirm
what everybody knows that exclu
sive corn meal feeding is not the
most judicious feeding* In a series
of experiment* by La we* and Gil
bert, made several years ago, the
pigs that were confined to corn meal
became diseased, as shown by swell
ings on the neek ; but by allowing
them to have as much as they want
ed of a mixture of fine coal ashes,
salt and bone meal, they were cured,
and at the termination of the experi
ment one of these pigs, gave the
finest carcass out of the whole lot of
43. In these experiments, with pigs
of a common breed, the following re
sults, among others, were obtained,
including some of the poorest, and
the best:

The bean and lentil meal would
probably resemble pea meal in feed
ing value. In all the rations in wliii h
Indian uieal predominated in these
experiments, the yield was at least
20 pounds Ikt 100 of-food.
From the result of a very exten
sive series of experiments on feeding
swine by Heiden and others in Ger
many, with various grains, potatoes
and sour milk, the following conclu
sions were deduced: Hurley or In
dian meal, together with about five
quarts of milk per day, makes most |
excellent food for pigs; the liest ef* j
feet of the barley shows itself up to j
the ugc of five mouths, while that of j
Indian meal continues till the seventh
month. After this age a better re
sult is obtained by the use of pota
toes with the grain and milk, there
fore tliey would begin with barley, J
for which ut the sixth month they :
would substitute Indian meal, and at.
Die eighth mouth would add potatoes. {
All careful experiments with Indian
meal, therefore, go to confirm the
general opinion of farmers that it is
a valuable part ol the ration for pigs ; |
they show that there is econo- .
my in using the cob with the grain, l
ami further, that it is poor economy
to feed Indian meal alone. And it is
quite likely that further experiments
with unground grain will confirm the
single result obtained in Connecticut
of smaller returns than with corn
and-cob meal.

A KRV TO VAU ABI.K KNOWLEDGE I'LACED
WITHIN REACH OF ALL.
From lll** American ArTimlturi.l (or April.
All the talk about "Progressive
Farming," "Improved Agriculture,"
"Science Applied to Farming," has
two objects; the increase of the
furiner's knowledge and of his crops,
if a farmer must invest sl'.l to get
$2O of increase from a field, it is poor
science, and poor farming; but if
by investing s.' on a field the increas
ed crops brings liiin $20.00, then
"Science Applied to Farming" pays,
and it pays him to know the reason
why. There are some settled |>oints
in agriculture. Among these are: I.
All soils, excepting of course the
virgin ones of the newer States, for
profitable culture must be manured.
2. The larger the crop upon an acre,
the cheaper per bushel, ton, etc.,
should that crop be raised. 8. In
our ordinary farming no farmer
makes all the manure that he could
profitably use upon his farm. 4.
The main value of manure (stable or
barn yuid) de|M'iids U|HII certain con
stituents, and these may be had in
other forms ; in artificial or chemical
fertilizers. 5. All soils do not alike
need the Mime fertilizers. 6. It Is
a welt established fact that while it
will pay the farmer to buy the fertil
izers his soil needs, it is a waste of
money to buy and apply to his soil,
constituents of which it already lias
enough. The question will naturally
follow—how cau we find out what
the soil needs? It is to help every
fanner to answer these questions:
"What does my soil need ?" "What
fertilizer can i buy that will pay n
profit in crops ?" that the Amcricun
Agriculturist experiments were in
stituted. These experiments were
begun in IX7B, and were continued
last year. Several results were given
last month, aiul this month we pre
sent on page 130, in a tabulated
form, any array of facts that will
convince the most sceptical that the
right fertilizers in the right place
will pay. And not only pay, but the
profit on the investment is often such
ss to help answer the vexed question :
"Will Farming Pay?" These results
were obtained by just such men as
you, "Farmer A," or you, "Farmer
i II," on just such farms as yours, and
by just such means as are within
your reach. These men arc farmers,
like yourselves.
Now there arc thousands, yes, tens
of thousands, of just such men as
these all over the country; every
township, every neighborhood, has
one or more readers of the A merits* n
Agriculturist, who would have the
fcame knowledge of their own fields
that these farmers have of their soils.
If these farmers knew that it would
pay to buv Potash, or Phosphoric
Acid, or Nitrogen, they would buy
it, but they cannot afford to run
many risks. It is evident that every
one of these experimenting farmers
now knows better, to a certain extent,
just what ho wants and does not
want to put upon At* land this year.
Not a farmer who reads this but
would gladly give $5 or $lO to know
as to his farm what these people
know as to thcir's. There is no way
in which the information can be had
so cheaply and so certainly as that
by which these farmers acquired it.
They asked the soil, and the soil re
sponded. The questions were in the
bags of the American AgricultnriM
Fertilizer Experiments.
Cost, ashes are good for cold,hard
clay or loam lamf, and there is no
better mulching for young trees and
shrubbery for retaining moisture and
repelling insects. Tbey benefit the
land brft are rather drying to light
land when mixed in quantities with
the soil.
He fork the raspberries begin to
leave out be sure and clear out the
old dead stalks that froited last year.
IT has been proved repeatedly,
that one acre of good green fodder
will feed two cows through the sum
mer.
