'Agricultural.
Farwlg In Texas.
A Texcan farmer, who-removed from Sumpter
county, Ala., which is said to be one of the richest
counties in the State, communicates to the Texan
Banner, the result of his experience, touching the
. relative' ulvantages of the two places cpswidered in
an agricultural point of view ; and declaresdecided
ly its favor of the State of Texas. The farm which
he cultivates is a land, of good consistency, with a
clay sub-soil lying some fourteen inches deep, loose
and easy of cultivation. Upon this, during the past
y ear. be raised 2241 pounds of cotton to the acre,
or 150 bushels to the hand and 300 - bushels of po
tatoes to the acre. There was a drc tight during-the
season, or he would of obssitted 12 bales of cotton
to the hand. He also raised a fine crop of sweet
potatoes, and an, acre of sugar-cane. t/cs it cannot
but be 'interesting to our agricultural readers, we
will give an extract from the communication to
which we have alluded. The writer says :
t• \Vail good laws well administered, with good
schools end academies, religions ass: ciations and
good preachers, upon all sides flourishing towns
and convenient places of doing business, society ex
cellent and, cultivates', security' of person and pro
perty, peace and prosperity evey 'There, surround
ed by as good neighbors and kind friends as I ever
had in ray life, myself and family enjoying excel
lent health. a mild climaie, fertile soil, fine fanning
country, rich natural pastures ; open to every one,
and ratrestricted Way of passage and outlet uvol
every side. I feel indeed that 1 am bettered by re
moval to Texas, and truly wish that my old neigh
bors of Alabama were here to enjoy our. &ware
and friendly country with us. aOa facilities for
getting crops to market are ceraittly not as g r eat as
they were in Alabama by steamboat : at the same
time, however, we are net liable to the frequent
looses which occur by steamboat r_ccidentl, neither
have to pay the expense of insurance against such
disasters. But as we very generally have dry fall
seasons, with good roads until about the tirSt of De
eember, and our prairies raising, oxen for us with .
but little care or trouble,' we are enabled to haul
our Conon to market and procure our sYpplies at
less cost
"My own experience leads to the conclusion that
farming in Texas, conducts? upon the same
tem as in Alabama, is attended tvith less labor and
greater ease otherwise than in that State, both as to
menalid work animals; from the freshiless4atalvi
gor.of the soil, the same amount of product is obtain
ed with leis labor, and the greater length of the
season affords to longer period for completion of the
crop, while thri natural resource of the prairies en
able the convenient and cheap support of a large
number of work -animals."
POTATO DISEAnir on ROT.—We. have received
from Rev. CIiAS. (;')Onit3( 11 of I-hit - dont, Ct., an
article first publish&l in the 1 3 ,a-tford Courant, in re.
(create to the potatoe disease. An enumeration of
sonic of the causes assigned for this malady is gi
ven from an Ent;lish paper. the principle of which
arc :—Attacks s of parasitiral fun;ri, insects ; (" the
idlest of all speculations," says. the English authori
ty.) frost, lightning, exhausted vitality, bad
manure 37 miasmata, such as produce cholera
in men, and other epidemics. Mr. G. thinks none
of these appear tenable, 4 ' unless it be the last.'"—
lfe observes—".lt seems apparent, at least to the
writer , that the disease did not originate in the soil
nor is it attributable to any deltict in the potatoes it
self. The remote cause is Some peculiar changein
the alinoephere, ,which we may never understand :
the pinxintate cause, consequent upon that change
is the derangenients of the functions of the !mess and
sraiks."
, Mr. G. holds that the leaves and stalks are first
effected, through this 'atmospheric influence,' and
that the vitiated jukes aretransmitted to the tubers,
' thus laying a foundaiton for their disease and de..
coy. Its effects, he believes, are something in pro
portion to the stage of growth the tubers are i
when the tops arts .attacked.' Hence he observes'
—'t if the tuber was but half grown, the stalk would
be proportionately green, and the injurious process
Would be no longer continued. If the potatoc 'was
nearly ripe, still the process might proceed, and
acrid, food beYritsmitted sufficient to cause its de

toes which appear fair and sound for some time af.
ter they are housed, uNtimately betray symptoms of
disvase, and in the course of the winter become

and iii the process of time infection breaks out.—
rpon this theory different varieties would suffer I
unequally, being more or less hardy, and the yarie
ty on different soils might also be differently atlect.

either in whole or in part, escape the ravages of '
th 4 disease, while contiguous crops are entirely

SUGGESTIONS TO FARSIERS.---1 fancy to myself, I
when i hear persons who live on the rich and fer
tile prairies of the West, praise the luxuriance of
their soil; and iiiast of thebountiful etopstheyfieid
with fide labor, that they ought to be regarded
somewhat as we now look upon those early Set.
tiers in the Mohawk valley, who, it is said, were
in die krxbit of carting the manure made upon their
lands to the river, and throwing it in, for fear, that
should it remain, their lands would become too rich.
In their wisdom, s.9pposing their lands could ne
ver be eihausted, def continued to plow the same
fields, until at last " a change came o'er the spiri t
of their dreams," and they found to their cost that
`the lands they supposed inexhaustibly fertile, had
( become sterile and unproductive ; and such I think
I s will be the result of the present system of rehire
tiou pursued by our western friends. cttemistsy
shows us that by taking a succession of crops oft
from the same ground one year after another, with
'
out any return. to it, the inevitable effect Must be
ultimately, that it will lose its fertility. The lan Is
of our country, especially the richer portions of it,
have quite too commonly met this usage. A few
yearsisiuce it was not !infrequently remarked by our
farmers,- that they formerly received god crops
from particular portions of their lands, but that they
could not get crops from the same ground that
would pay the trouble of cultivation. Something,
they said, must be wanting in the soil, but what
they did net. . Chemistry ha solved this
problem, and it is now beginning to be understood
by them, that their soil Must be fed-with proper food
as their : caste if they would have it productive :" and
that true economy consists in highly cultivating
smaller quantities of land, by deep plowing and
!nattering. rather than running over a large quantity
of land with small tillage.
“ A filk farm well tilled. A little wire well willed,
A large '..larn sNi.ll 81kd. Give we. veil me.”
This lesev is one our farmers have been slow to
learn. 11 bile it has been their practice in cultiva
ting their gardens to resort to thorough tillage, and
as a consequence, they produce more from them
than from any other equal portion of their land ; in
the raising of field crops the hint thus given them
has been entirely neglected: It .is supposed that
the fruit and kitchen gardens in the vicinity of the
city of London, occupy 20.000 acres of land, and
that the produce of this land is sold for over *7,000,-
000 while.irillte most favored portions of farm
nsr lands in our own country, 1500,000 would
generally be considered a good product for the
same quantity of land. Knowledge and expe
rience will in time correct the- errors into
which rim farmers have fallen in regard to
c«ltivating their lands : and even now I think I
srte a bright prospect for the totem, in the informa
tion of agricultural associations, in the circulation
of aglicultural papers, and other periodicals; in the
improvement of the farm stock ; in the improved
Unarm and drainage of lands; and above all ; in the
increatied attention given to tlle saving and use of
manure:4. When these come to be well understood
t •
and practiced, we may confidently expect to see
fat-art of 40 or 60 acres producing more & tet truing
abetter and more certain profit to the farmer, than
f‘i:rtiti now do which contain many additional nixes .

New CAnms 31Actusie.--The St. Louis Reveille
noticing tile invention of a candle machine lately
introduced there, says: " It is a candle stick which
simply turning up the bottom, will answer to mould
a candle out of any common grease. The base of
a candlestick forms a chamber, in which works a
spiral screw, and though this crew the wick pas
sea out at the top of. the candlestick, the upper sec
tion of which forma the mould. The grease, lard
orlailow—in short, any matter gathered about a
kitchen which will lawn—has but to be poured in
the lower chamber of the candlestick, and by turn
ing the base with your hand you can form a candle,
with a dry wick, which will burn like sperm. The
length of the candle you can regulate to your own
taste, by simply taking a turn more or less---
E•lough wick may be placed in a box in the ,pase
of th's neat machine to last a month. There is uo

TAsturer Hoasm.—The taming of horses by
breathing in their nostrils, seems to be gaining
friends. David Clayton, of Tyrellcounty, hav

had been rendered gentle by breathing in their nos

after cortsideralffe trouble succeeded in breathing
several times in his nostrils. Before he left the
stable, the mule became gentle aad would stand
and permit himself to be rubbed, mid would nose
and smell around 'him. He followed Mr. C. out of
the stable around the yard, and wanted to go into
the house. We advise our friends who hare colts
