farmer* may hare the benefit of it. f t rt
communication!! he timely, and to sure that
they are brief anil trell pointed.
PROF. HAMILTON, member of the
State Hoard of Agriculture from this
county, has been appointed to read
an essay upon ''Clover as a Fertil
izer," at the summer meeting of the
Hoard, which will IK- held at Gettys
burg, .I line !•. This is placing a sub
ject of paramount importance to all
farmers in very capable hands.
Dr. James ('aider, who, as Presi
dent of the State College, is an r.r
officio member of the Hoard, is to deal
with the subject,"Does Cutting Injure
the Vitality of the Potato?" We
have no doubt that both these papers
will prove of great practical lienefit
to farmers.
Wr. WISH that we could make
every farmer appreciate that the ver
min which they |*ermil to infest tlmir
chickens and chicken-houses are the
direct source of n very large propor
tion of the ills that fowl flesh is heir
to. We arc sure that more pains
would then be taken to rid them of
these pests. At this season the lice
multiply with wonderful rapidity,
taking advantage of the setting hens
and tender chicks. When the liens
are set be sure to sprinkle the nest
plentifully with flour of sulphur,
and provide a box of common road
dust, well mixed with sulphur, in
1 which they can roll and wallow,
j This, with coal oil poured on the
; roosting poles every week or ton days,
l will keep the lice in check.
To FIND one's self two or three
days Itcliind time in the preparation
of the corn ground, and with a stable
full of distempered horses, is bv no
means one of the pleasant or encour
aging experiences ol farm life, and
yet we happen to know that such
things may be. Thorough and re
peated smokings with tolwcco, old
leather and honey comb, and daily
washing and rubbing the neck nnd
throat with strong, hut tobacco water,
hel|K>d ri<l the stock of the plague
rapidly. In addition to this, wc gave
two or three doses a day of the fol
lowing mixture; One part each of
lard, soft soap, gunpowder and gum
myrrh, and two parts of line tar. A
spoonful at a time of this was placed
as far down the throat as wc could
reach, the object being to have it
lodge about the glands of the throat,
thereby stimulating the natural dis
charge through the mouth. This
treatment, coupled with great care in
feeding,enabled us to keep our stock
at about half work, ami cure them at
the same time. Can't some of our
readers tell us of an effectual pre
ventive of distemper?
DON'T shoot the crows. Don't
poison them. Don't kill them in any
other w ay. Don't even try to frighten
them away from your corn-flehls.
"Why ! do you want the black thieves
to pull half of our corn ?" you ask in
indignation. Not a bit of it. Hut
•Dm Crow has always been misun
derstood, and sadly maltreated ; and
if he is shown proper consideration,
and his efforts are duly appreciated
and rewarded, he will not only leave
your planted corn untouched, but
prove himself an eflicient ally in your
warfare against the cut-worms, wire
worms, and the numerous other
worms and grubs which do really
commit actions depredations. To be
sure, he has his weaknesses, (and
who of us has not ?), one of which is
a fondness for mjl corn, and if he
finds a nicely softened kernel in the
neighborhood of the cut-worm for
which he has bceu boring ao indus
triously, It would be expecting too
much of crow nature, to ask him to
stop short and leave it untouched,
unless wc provide him with some of
the name sort which he can get with
out digging. Soak a few quarts of
the refuse corn shelled from the ends
of the ears used for seed corn, or of
the rat-eaten grains to be found in
the bottom of most oorn cribs, until
they are qnite soft, and scatter a
handful or two daily in the corn field,
and our word for it, the crows will
not touch a hill of what you have
planted. Scatter it very thinly, so
that they will fie obliged to hunt for
it, and in their search they will pick
up thousands of the destroying
worms.

How to Fight the Tobacco Fly.
The tobacco crop seems to Is: com
manding increased attention in our
county, and for the benefit of novices
who have undertaken its culture, we
copy the following from the Ameri
can Former:
The tobacoo fly niunt now bo aritici
paled. Wo recommend the following
remedies:
Ist. Keep the young plants growing
by a judicious application of tbe very
best fertilizers; that i-> the planter's
chief hope.
2d. Apply, with unsparing hand, air
slacked liuio within the bed alter every
rain. We would advise tho doubting
Thomases to try just one strip through
tbe middle of the bed, or upon cabbage
plants sown in tho garden for the pur
pose.
.'!d. We have just received a recipe
upon this subject from our indefatigable
commissioner of agriculture, tbe Hon. ;
Wm. <4. I.e Hue. He says;
"Take one-third of a barrel of cow
dung, pour on this sufficient water to
make, when worked in, a still' paste.
Hry the paste and j>owder it. Put this
powder on the plants while wet with
rain.
4th. Though we have no experience
with it, we would suggest Paris green.
Preparing Cream for Churning.
RT <> H. M.l-.
The preparation uS cream for
churning is an act that only a very
amail proportion of even good dairy
men fully understand. The old the
ory of the witches in the cream some
times seems, to very good dairy
managers, to lie the only jiossible
explanation of its p-euliar action.
Many a batch of cream has been
churned upon for hours with no aji
parcnt effect, because it was not
properly tempered. Call the nttcn
tion of the jroor sufferer to the condi
tion of his cream, and fie at once
insists tiiat it was nil right when lie
liegan : he tested it, and the ther
mometer stood at 62 . Hut half the
world cannot understand, and the
other half w ill not, that the thermom
eter may indicate G2 1 in a hatch of
cream, and not a single globule of the
butter fat be heated above 4.1 or 50\
There are lots of old fogy notions in
men's heads that they will not give
up, though the stars fall. Most but
ter makers, when they are about to
churn, heat up their cream to the
j traditional standard and put it into
the churn, sup|ioaing that they have
done just the right thing. One of
| the best butter makers in this coun
try, (lie does not live in Vermont),
found by experience that he always
| got better results if lie heated his
cream to 60', and held it there 12
: hours before churning. Another
whose goods have taken very high
rank, and whose methods are very
regular, prepares her cream by licat
| ing it to 00 , and letting it fail hack
from that to 60 . Neither could give
the rationale of the ojieration, but
isith accomplished precisely the same
result, hut by two different processes
—that is, they bring the cream glob
ules to the standard temperature.
The explanation of the phenomena is
that the fatty part of the cream does
not absorb heat so -rapidly as the
other portions. Only by the pro
tracted holding of the mass at 60°
can the fatty portion lie brought to
that temperature without raising the
other portion higher. Several other
points are involved, but this tho most
important.
Washing Bheep Worse than Useless.
lion A.a. Allen.
As usually conducted this is a cruel,
barbarous custom ; and there is no
lienefit to lie derived from it, and
frequently a considerable loss from
the chill given to the sheep, causing
a cold, followed by internal inflam
mation and death. The day this is
done may lie warm and sunny, but
the river or |iond water aliil cold,
and the sheep, after being washed,
are obliged to retain their wet fleeces
so long, even if they escape a cold,
as to make it quite injurious to them.
Unless turned into a clean grass pas
ture immediately, sheep will gather
up as great a weight of dirt before
shearing as was washed out of them,
so that the wool gains no benefit
from the ablution. Hut if it did, it
would lie all the same to the manu
facturer, because before being worked
up into cloth, all wool has to be
thoroughly cleansed by his own more
thorough process, so whether it be a
little more or less dirt is of no conse
quence to him. The only trouble is
when selling the- wool, the purchaser
haggles for the greatest possible dis
count he can obtain in consequence
of the dirt. Yet with people of good
judgment, who are accustomed to
breeding sheep or handling their
fleeces, this necessary allowance is
easily and fairly got at. If sheep run
in a clean pasture during the Hummer,
and sre kept in well-littered yards
during the Winter, and their iieeoee
properly tagged before shearing, they
will show so little dirt aa to be unob
jectionable to tbe buyer, and be can
easily guess what the cleansed might
net to the manufacturer.
Currant* ami Their Cultivation.
From "JfotTOHM hh Small Fruit*,' in Prr\hm*r f"t
April.
The first requisite is, not wetness,
hut abundant and continuous rnois
| ture. Soil naturally deficient in this,
and which cannot bo made drouth
resisting by deep plowing and culti
vation, is not adapted to the currant,
because the currant is found wild in
bogs it does not follow that it can
l>e grown successfully in undrnincd
swamps. It will do better in such
places than on dry, gravelly knolls,
| or on thin, light soils, hut our fine
i civilized varieties need civilized con
; ditions. The well-drained swamp
may become the very best of currant
fields; and damp, heavy land, that is
capable of deep, thorough cultivation,
should la: selected, if possible. When
such is not to be bad, then by deep
plowing, sub-soiling, by abundant
mulch around the plants throughout
the summer, and by occasional water
ings in the garden, counteracting the
effects of lightness and dryness of
soil, skill can go far in making good
nature's deficiencies.
Next to depth of soil and moisture
the currant requires fertility. It is
justly called one of the "gross feed
ers,'' and is not particular as to the
quality of its food so that it is
abundant. I would still suggest,
however, that it be fed according to
its nature with heavy composts, in
which rnuck, leaf-mold and tLc clean
ings of the cow stable are largely
present. Wood ashes and bone meal
are also most excellent. If stable or
other light manures must be used I
would suggest that they lie scattered
litre rally on the surface in the fall or
early spring, aud gradually worked
in by cultivation. Thus used, their
light heating qualities will do no
harm, and they will keep the surface
! mellow and therefore moist.
Shall We Mow the Clover or Plow it
Down?
i •
in I'rariit nl Fjuuief.
There is an idea with many fanners
that the benefit derived from clover
comes mostly from the plowing under
of the tope. I lrelieve this to be a
mistake. The roots of the clover
weigh more than the tops, and by
their decay in the soil furnish a large
amount of plant food, and in addition
have an im|ortant mechanical effect
on the soil, and those who have marie
I careful exjieriments have found near
i!y or quite as great lienefit to the
soil from a clover crop, when it was
removed and the stubble plowed un
der. as when the growth of top was
all plowed under. I had a field in
| clover last summer that was intended
for wheat, and I plowed a part of it
under in June when the clover had
made its full growth ; the remainder
I cut for hay and when it had made
a light growth of the second crop I
plowed it under; the wheat is much
the best on the part from which the
first crop was removed, and the hay
which I made was worth ten dollars
an acre to me for feed.
The Boiling System.
IT* AIVAXTAuRA BRIEFLY M MMKTt t P.
j the F*rai Journal.
The three prominent advantages
are: 1. At least three times as many
animals may lie fed by the cut feed as
could be obtained by grazing, owing
to the animals not treading down the
plants, and to the stronger growth
when the plants can reach full size,
than when grazed short. 2. The in
crease in the quantity of milk by
almut 20 per cent., in consequence of
keeping the animals quiet and awav
from the annoyance of flies. .1. The
manufacture of valuable manure.
When the cows have the run of the
pasture, they spend much of the time
in hot weather in the shade stamping
and switching flies; when in the sta
ble with the doors closed, the flies
give them little trouble, and they eat
freely. 4. Fences may be dispensed
| with.
Keep' Less Stock in Bnmmer, and More in
the Winter.
j C..1, Vninig.nn Valt.tailing nod tummting F.-rMlit..
A majority of the farmcra of this
country now keep too large a stock
in the summer season, whereby too
much of the substance of the land ia
consumer), and too small a stock in
the winter to make sufficient manure
for the manuring seasons. If this
rule were changed, it would aid large
ly in increasing the fertility of their
farms. The fertility of farina can
not lie maintained by constant! y
draining off substance, any more
than can a meal bag contain meal it
you arc always taking out and put
ting nothing in.
Tiik great work before the agricul
tural journalist in this country con
sists principally in teaching and
enforcing the true principlea of aci
entitle farming 6y which the toil may
he recuperated. The production of
crops upon good soil, it Is true, may
be greatly increased both in quality
and quantity by the adoption of
scientific methods; but that ia not
the moat important field for. scien
tific exploration. If science will
induce or enable the farmers to
restore the soil to a condition of pro
ductiveness, the crop questions will
give but litUe trouble. With good
soil it ia easy enough to raise good
crops. A good soil ia the beet safe
guard against a wet season or a dry
season ; and aa for insects, it ia the
only safe and reliable exterminator.
