Seeding is being greatly hindered by the unceasing wet weath er, and the little that is being sown is necessarily put out in bad condi tion. IN another column we give a chap ter on "Apples and Cider," from the American Agriculturist, , which is full of useful bints to those whose supply of apples is abundant. Many of our readers will find use for it this year, while others can only lament that they have not the apples. O.N Tuesday, the 17111, the Agricul tural Department furnished the fol lowing summary of the condition of crops; Potatoes.—The New England j and Middle States report a high av erage crop. The Gulf States and three States in the Mississippi Valley report an average above that of last year. The States north of the Ohio RlVfcr have a promising crop. West of the Mississippi both Kansas and Nebraska report a low average Duck wheat—New York and Pennsyl vania show a decline of two |>crccnt. in the acreage sown. MinnePft/TuTC-" Nebraska g g H |, ow aa acrea g C nearly the same as in 1879. Hay and pasturage —the summer has not been favorable for the bay crop. In the States tardering on the Ohio River the average is higher than last year. West of tho Mississippi the average is low and on the Pacific Slope it is very high. Tsv to have clean field* thii year.— Kxthangr, That ia excellent advice, hut we cannot remember a year in which the farmer who makes the trial would have been lews likely to succeed than the present. Wet weather is succeed ed only by wetter, and weeds flourish almost without precedence- At this writing, With the fall months not yet reached, we look out of our window and sec wheat stubbles covered with a growth of rag-weed, smart-weed and weeds of all sorts, quite a9 thick, and almost as high as the wheat which was taken oil only last month. Even in this case, we are "trying to have clean fields," by mowing the weeds, and drawing them into the barnyard to l>c trampled into the manure heap, where they will "do the most good." Hut the rains come so fast and so "wet," that even in this wc are hindered moat discourag fngly. Of course the young clover (oi which wc have an exceptionally good catch, owing, as we believe, to harrowing the wheat, and sowing the clover seed upon the freshly harrow ed ground) grows in a fair ratio with the weeds, and if we can suc ceed in getting them cut, and prompt, ly removed, before the clover is smothered, wc shall expect to aee it make a aplendid growth, enlarging and lengthening its roots, and furnish ing a heavy coat of mulch for the ground, both of which will greatly tend to prevent it from "freezing out" during the winter. Exhausted Already. The older settled districts in Min nesota can no longer be depended upon for the yield of wheat which at first rewarded the labor of the farmer. The land will not produce a greater average than eight bushels to the acre. The ground has been sown and resown with wheat until It ia exhausted. New crops must he tried; and the fields from which so much has been drawn must be rested and reinvigorated. Land can be worked to death as well as men and women. —Record. J tut sol And wc have in our eye some noted wheat growing districts much nearer than Minnesota which are rapidly approaching the same exhausted condition, snd for the same cause. Wheat Is good, but "There can be too much of a good thing." The farm is the last place in the world whore slovenliness pays. Apples, Apple Juice, Older, Vinegar, from 11,.- Amirlcm, Agriculturist. This in moat, emphatically "the bearing year" with apples. Not only arc well kept orchards in full bearing, but every superannuated and half decayed tree, and every scrub and chance seedling by the roadside, is loaded in a manner seldom seen in a lifetime. With this abundance it is evident that with apples there will IKJ a glut in the market. There will l>c no room except "higher up," and tbope who scud poor fruit to market hud better use their barrels for fire wood, and save the freight charges. There is always u certain demand to be met, but this year only the most select fruit will supply it. In years of plenty, careful selection and neat packages tell. The nlmoßt dally inquiries as to fruit dryers show that preparations are being made to dry a share of this abundance, and we hope by this article to anticipate the inquiries that will soon be made as to disposing of the fruit in the various liquid forms. Apple juice, as it comes from the press, or "sweet cider," is liked by many, and we have inquiries as to keeping it in the urifermentcd state. Preserving pow ders are advertised, and some of those from their effectiveness in preserving fruit will no doubt keep fruit juice equally well. The majority will wish to preserve their sweet cider without addition, and these can treat it by the same method used in canning fruit. Heat the cider to the tailing point, bottle and cork it while still hot. When apple juice is excised to the air, the natural ferment it con tains causes a change to take place. The sugar in the juice is converted into alcohol, and carbonic acid is given off. This process may IKJ car ried on until all the su£ar is decom posed, when it is "hard" cider. The fermentation may IKJ arrested at the desired point by bottling, and spark ling cider will IKJ the result. I 1 which is also called bottling er," can oOc. mentation is quite fin-j AuGd. The best still cider is made from late ripened apples, when the ! weather is cool, fermented slowly at j as low a temperature as possible, taking care to exclude the excess of j air; when fermentation has quite' ceased, the cider should IKJ racked j ofr into a clean cask, and kept secure- ! ly bunged or bottled. The great use of apples in this year will IKJ to make vinegar. In the fermentation of j cider, the sugar of the apple juice is I converted into alcohol, and in making j vinegar, that alcohol ia changed into j acetic acid- The conditions of this j change arc full exposure to the air ; and a high temperature. The richer the cider in alcohol, the stronger will IKJ the vinegar, and the more slowly will the change take place. Ordina rily, the cider is put away in the cellar or some out-building, and in time, it may be two or three years or j more, will be found to lie changed s into vinegar. Those who have heard of the "quick vinegar process," think-1 ing it can lie applied to cider, wc are often asked to give a description of it. In this process, a liquid contain- I ing alcohol, usually in the form of. cheap whiskey, is converted into vin- ! egar in a few honrs. Hut this is not j applicable to cider, for in the fermen tation of cider or other fruit juices, the change into vinegar is accompan- '■ ied by the growth of a very low form of plant, "the mother," as it is usual ly called, and this would so clog up the apparatus of the quick method as to very.soon put a stop to it. Still, the change of cider may le greatly hastened. Those who make cider vinegar on a large scale have a house especially for the work, and this is heated to about 70°. Vinegar can not be made rnpidly at a much lower temperature. Exposure to the air is important, hence the casks are not filled, but only partly so, in order to expose a broad surface of the liquid to the action of the air. Exposure Is increased by frequently transfer ring tho cider from one cask to another, letting it run very slowly. Exposure can be promoted by allow ing the partly formed vinegar to slowly run down a long trough, and also by allowing it to trickle over corn cobs placed in a cask, the cobs having been previously washed and soaked in good vinegar. Old vinegar acts as a ferment, and hastens the change, and the mixing of new and partly formed vinegar with a portion of old and strong vinegar helps the change. Another method to hasten vinegar making is to add yeast to cider, or what produces the same effect, the "mother" from vine gar barrels. The conditions for the most rapid conversion of cider into vinegar may be summed up : A tem perature of at least 70°, all possible exposure to the air, the addition of old vinegar to the new or the use of "mother." It should be remembered that the weaker the cider in sugar the weaker will be the vinegar, and the more rapid the change. TIIR use of implements of hus bandry of Imperfect construction, or in bad condition, it is confidently believed, is a greater annual tax to the farmers than all the assessments imposed by law. The hindrance to labor, loss in time, the greater hard ship of its accomplishment and its less effectual operation by the toggled chain, the racked cart, the doll plough point, the toothless harrow, the brok- en hoc, the spade, the rake, the fork, if kept in accurate account by each in dividual, would present an aggregate of loss reproachful to many and criminal in the most careless. Ensilage Again. From lli fi-muniuwn T*l*ffra|>li. Just at present there is a remark able interest in the question of pre serving green fodder in silos, bow to do it, etc. That it has merits there can be no question, but the limit of those merits is the question which experience must decide. If a moiety of its claimed benefits and advan | tages is true, we have a substitute for cooking fodder by steam for stock without all its dangers from fire, etc. Hear something of what Mr. O. 11. I'otter relates to the Farmers' Club of the American Institute, after an ex|)eriencc of three j'ears with ensil applying it to common fodder corn, red clover, pearl millet, West India millet or Guinea eorn, green rye, green oats and mixed grasses, in which clover predominates, with entire success in every case. Has never lost any fodder whatever, but has been perfectly preserved and let ter than when fed fresh and green from the field. The first fermenta tion being passed in the process, the food thus preserved has no tendency either to sour or bloat tLe animals fed. It iscaten up eagerly and clean, leaf and stock, without any loss whatever, and the stock thus fed ex | liibits the highest condition of health | and thrift. "For milch cows, to which 1 have mainly fed it, it surpass es any food I have ever tried ; it in creases the quantity of milk much lieyond dried food, and the quality is bettor than that produced from the same fodder when fed fresh and * " from the field." Whai asked for when - i ;'^ of tlu ?™ l parativej- lf ie cows teeth • ..oi affected, as is the case in some instances with hot feed, can anything known lie better ? Bits of Agricultural Wisdom. The good farmer does not pasture his grass fields close in the fall of the year. Clover that sends its roots deep into the earth is considered the best sub-soiling agent to lie had. If you want to increase your clover fields manure thein well; you can not increase them faster in any other way. Whenever you see a farm upon which year after year no improve | ment is made you may be sure that i the farmer neither reads, observes I nor thinks. Corn cut ofi in season is 10 per cent, heavier than that left standing, which will pay two-thirds of cutting and husking ; then you have the very best of feed in form of fodder, which is worth from 10 to 15 cents a shock. In all our planting and cropping we should remember that our farm is our capital, and that increasing its productis T c capacity means adding to our principal, while by reducing its fertility we take awaj* the means by which we live. A gitatc the manure question; throw everything in the barnyard, keep your stock in your yards, do not have them running in every field on , ihc farm and on the public highway. Then you will begin to sec what the manure will do for your run-down I land. . Do Hot Plant More Trees than Ton can Oare For. of Xf* Yoft Tribute. It is so easy to set out a little tree, and it seems like such a good thing to do for ourselves and for posterity, that there is a great temptation to plant more trees than can possibly receive proper attention. This, of course, docs not apply to those who make fruit culture a specialty, but to the busy farmer and others who have little leisure to attend to yard crops and orchards for home supply. The hsrm done by tbis system of over planting is not confined to the owner, who is deprived of the fine fruit that : might be his, but such neglected | trees furnish a harbor and breeding place for numerous insects destruc tive to lYuit trees, and the little tree planted with such magnanimous in tent becomes a curse instead of a blessing. How much better, then, to have fewer trees carefully tended, with more and better fruit, and fewer insects to disturb the peace of the fruit-grower. Hay Fifty-four Tears Old. ProM the Petcr Bcysher, of Washington township, Berks county, sold ten tons of hay that had been in his barn filly-four years, being part of the first crop that was boused alter the barn was built fifty-four years ago. Mr. Deysher sold the hay on condi tion that if it was not found good the purchaser need not pay for it, but it turned out to be perfectly sound, and was paid lor promptly aocording to agreement. Au. surplus poultry should be worked off to market Though grain is cheap, it takes a great deal to feed a lot of poultry in cold weather. When the surplus stock is out of the way, attention may be given to special methods of feeding and man\ age ment to secure eggs.
