Le Due*, after detailing In* attempted experiments in the manu facture of sugar from sorghum, says : On tbe whole these experiment*, al though made under very unfavorable circumstances, lnv boen attended with *<) lir h measure nf success a* to give assurance that, with the machinery m* now in position and an ndc<|uate Hniount of rune, planted at the right time and cultivated in the right way. both sotgh uin and corn stalks can be profitably employed in the production of sugar tor market. It i, to be hoped that Congress will vote the fund* nrcMiary to continue these experiments as long i< tliey promise to Le of great value to the people. • A tabular statement showing the condition ot tne industry among the people al large will be found appended latins report, by which it will be seen ihut Very divided progress has been made during the past year in the di reel ion I had the honor to proj>ose some two years since, to wit, the manufacture vt home of all the sugar wo consume, with some to spare lot export. This statement and the many letters upon the subject from intelligent correspond ents in every part of the country justify the belief that the crop of I**4 will terminate our dependence on foreign nations for this article of prime ncces sity. Congress did, at its last session, "vote the funds necessary" to the amount of 84">,l00, and Gen. Lc Due "purchased the machinery and other apparatus, appointed several addi tional chemists," and caused to be planted one hundred and thirty-five acres of sorghum cane, which it is lair to presume was "planted at the right time, and cultivated in the right war." For reasons entirely beyond his control Gen. Lc I>uc sur rendered his commissionership to his successor, Dr. I.oring, on the first of July, and the remainder of the ex periment, the manufacture of the cane into sugar, was carried out un der Dr. I.oring's sti|K'ivision. In his annual report just published the new commissioner says that "forty-two acres of the 13a planted in aorghum were overtaken lv the frost lieforc sufficiently ri|>e for use, and llie crop was so badly damaged as to be re garded as unfit for experiment;" leaving ninety-three acres to manu facture. On the first page of his Deport we find the following : The procon* of manufacturing ujrr from norghum ha* I "en conducted (>y the 1-c.t lr. and e*|>eno p and the work was carried on with a* much rxpedition a* the season > would allow. The reault of llii* work "ill he found under the appropriate head of thi* communication and in the elaborate report of the chemiat of the department. On page eighteen we find the "re ault in tabulated form, from which we make the following highly inter esting extracts: <.f < *nc ,| O.n.ngli <-rtiej.ir.rmlll U & Oalloto* ft sf.'iluM Puwimlw .f *ugr ...... lv> T-.tal ~jw ,-r <.f nt,. r. s , '4B Paid (of Ultif stnl running mill 11.'.il II Cot) Mt'l .. 32& Total rtjnpae.f fttvwrting tins Info •trap it •n|H..

Thia give# ua the sugar at a cost of $7,374.03, or only $41.05 per pound. "TAm state ment " will hardly "justify the lielief that the crop of 1884 will terminate our dependence on foreign nations for this article of prime necessity. Books, Catalogues, &c- NVe have received from (J. W. Fisher, of Rochester, N. Y., a copy of his little book known us Fisher's IJrain Tahiti. The grain tables contained in it are vety complete, showing at a glance, the vultie of any number of pounds of grain, at any price from ten cents to two dollars per bushel. The title dot s not, however, by any means express all the contents of the hook, us in addition to the grain tables, it contains many others of special value to the farmer, such as tables of wages, board, rent, interest, capacity of grainaries and hay tuows, Cost of pork and numerous miscella neous tables. Price 40 cents. O.nk of the most interesting cata logues which has lately reached us is that of Mr. N. \V. Dunham, of Wayne, l>u l'age county, 111., the widely known importer and breeder of Percheron burses. The catalogue contains no less than thirty-eight full page j/ortraits of the most noted and im:>ortant of Mr. Dunham'n horses, besides a descriptive and extended history of the Perclierons, which muke it of great interest lo! every owner or lover of good horses. Mr. Dunham is doing the country good service by his activity in the ! introduction of these splendid animals, 1 and we shall be glad to know that his reward is abundant. W. E. Row om it, Seedsman and Flor ist, of 015 Warren street, Ronton, sends us his catalogue of flower seeds und plants. Severity pages illustrated, and of intere-t to all who grow flowers. Mr. I Vow ditch also publishes The Amen- ' ean Florist ami Farmer, a monthly ruaga xine devoted to floriculture, at £ 1.50 jer year. Those of our readers who are lovers of flowers will please take notice. WE are indebted to Dr. I-oring for copies of his rejorl of the Department of Agriculture for Ikkl. It ap{>ears with h somewhat unwonted degree of promptness, which promises well for the new cominis-ioner's administration. We make one or two brief extracts from the report in this issue. Tho Farmer's Vacation. Wc quote the following excellent and timely paragraph from our neigh bor, the Clinton Democrat , whose vet ran chief is not only one of the best j editors in the State, but a practical farmer as well, and knows tbe needs of farmers as well as be does those of newspaper readers: Many of our exchanges will not issue during the present week—there by giving their employes a wsk for recreation. Our schools are close*l and the teachers and scholars are en joying a vacation. This is customary and is right. Hut the farmer who needs n vacation as much as any bu siness man needs one, seems to find it ioqiossible to lose a day. A week's run to town after the busy season is over will do him a world of good. And he needs to visit other farmers, to learn, if possible, easier and better i methods of tilling tbe soil and living, lie should attend farmers' conven tions ami organizations to gain new ideas—something to broaden and en large his views of life. During the coming month a week could tie spent both pleasantly and profitably by an attendance ujon the course of thirty lectures which will be given at the Pennsylvania State College, Centre county, commencing January 17th. These lectures will be free ami treat u|>on farm topics and will not fail to benefit the listener. Farmers who stay at home are sure to sec the dark side of life. They need to learn and realize that storms and droughts and thunder showers nnd freshets visit other farms besides their own; that weeds and insects thrive in all degrees of longitude; that flies ami dirt accum ulate ami annoy other households lie sitlcs the ones they preside over. In 1 short, they need to learn how other |>eop!c live. Could fanners manage | •o as to be confined leas to their farms, could they work more in part nership as do men in other business, or could they believe it profitable to 1 employ men competent to properly manage aflairs while absent on a short season of recreation and en joyment, they would then lc in reali ty what they have the name of being, tiic most "independent people in the world.'* Tiir time has arrived when the crop-re|>orting system should tie made -nore thorough and accurate and its results should lie communicated to the public nt the earliest possible moment. A synopsis of such results, furnished to tbe press by telegraph, should command general publication throughout tbe country in advance of the full printed report ftfw arded by mail.— Camimioncr I/oring. Tn successful farmer, like tbe successful teacher, Is an experiment alist. He does not run bis experi ments all over tho farm, but while the main buaincas proceeds according to approved methods, lie always has his experiments in progress where they do not interfere with Ids general work. Tho llorcfthoG and Ita Applica tion. In. HU'U, In AutriU til AgfiruKarUl fat Jmhuury, The number ami disposition of the nails depend upon the kind of shoe. For speed and light draft, from flvo to Hcven may IK* employed, while for heavy horses and for heavy draft tho number may la; increased. Where few nails arc used they should Ixj more widely distributed than is usual ly the custom. When it is remem bered that the introduction of every nail is so much injury to the struct ures of the foot, it will readily be seen that the smaller the number re quisite for the purpose the better for the animal, in driving the nails, it is essential that a thick short hold of the crust should be had, rather than a long thin one. Not only is the shoe thus held more (irmly, but there is a probability that the nail holes may, by the downward growth of the horn, lie removed at the next shoeing, which inmost cases should not exceed an interval of four or five weeks. The points of the nails should be shortened to just that length which will |K-rmit them to Is; turned over ami hammered down smoothly, with perhaps the least possible ra*[>- ing. The common method of rasje ing notches for the extremities of the nails is not advisable. In fact, as 1 have already said, the rasp should never be used upon the exter nal walls of th- hoof except in cases of absolute necessity to prevent striking of the opposite limb. Its use destroys the natural polish, ex poses parts beneath which are not fitted for such exposure, and renders the horn brittle, and liable at any moment to quarter cracks and other maladies. Rotation cf Crojis and Manures. Ur Milt*, in A*u' '<<*b Atrrirulluritt f r Jmoiry. In summing up the advantages of a systematic rotation of crops, the supply of manure tlint can be obtain ed in the residual produce of tbe feed provided for animals in tbc course of cropping, and the ultimate profits that may be derived from tbc manure when applied to the soil, must not escape attention, as they are matters of great practical im portance. From the wide variations observed in the action of farmyard manures on different soils, we cannot decide upon any standard that will enable us to determine tboir absolute value, in promoting the growth of crops in any given case. For exam ple, a dressing of manure on a heavy soil would not produce precisely the same results that would be obtained by the same manure on a light soil, and the dilfercnt effects observed in the two cases would be still further complicated by variations arising from peculiarities of seasons. Tbc direct method of cx|>erimentation for determining the absolute value of manures, which would at first sight be suggested, cannot, therefore, from tbe complex conditions involved, he applied with any prosjiectof succes. It will be readily seen from what has already been presented, that, a variety of crops grown in succession will tend to economize the elements of fertility in the soil, so that the greatest aggregate return for natural productiveness, or for manures ap plied would be obtained ; while the continuous growth of a single crop would result in the waste of some of the valuable constituents of the soil which are not in a form available for it, but which could be made use of by other crops. IT will be a bright day for the world when agriculture Ac shorn of its pres ent nonsense an* Lakes its proper place among human avocations. That place is the pr*t place because it is the most important and the noblest for developing true men and women. And then it will rule the world in stead of lieing ruled by it, and the reproachful gibe of "only a farmer"' will "pass away and be at rest." THAT in agriculture we have still great room for improvement every one roust be aware who realizes that a large proportion of our staple crops is as yet. as it were, a spontaneous production of the earth, and that ex hausted soils arc abandoned for more fertile regions as the !>est method of fa rm i ng.—(bmm i-Mioner Ixtring. THZRK is no wisdom in working a thirty acre field year after year to get five bushels ol wheat or ten of corn to the acre, when with the same expense for fertilizer you could raise fifteen bushels of wheat or thirty of com on ten acres.— l*ractical Farmer.
