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 : Pint Swoad Third |twrl<l. | period. |wrt*l. i Corn nrnl coif iii*nl -.4 V, 4 ...... Cl.nr Indian ut*l .TO 4 1 4.:t Middling* '.W T1 4:1 Corn meal and middling*... 'IX* .'1.4 H i 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 : Firat fw-Avnd Tkird |rrl*L | Torn aiu! ml m') 446 ......

W O 'jCV*.I '.'* 4 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: YlrMrt lt too Ihn of • Miliar* of * lurm.i IS part* Indian man), a.t part, l.ran ||,| 1* pud Indian 14 part* Bran.

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. Important to Every Fanner. —— 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.
