Agricultural Education—Work-
That the book worm will make a poor
tarmer.as a general rule,every body knows.
However, he has certainly little wisdom
who discards book-gained knowledge. To
be a successful farmer the boy must be ear
ly trained to independent observation and
judgment, to a reliance upon himself, and
to see that success or failure results from
causes, which, if he knows enough, he may
regulate. This can never come satisfacto
rily without a thorough knowledge of work.
Every farmer will agree with us in this,
and we have rarely known one who did not
put the work theory into practice —and of
ten with most indiscreet energy. Boys are
ambitious and delight in praise. They be
gin tough and hearty ; —they scorn the
light work very soon ; they aspire to do
"the work of a man" to be worth more to
their fathers than any men they can hire ;
they learn quickly how to do every kind of
work. They hoe, and rake, and bind, and
swing the ax, and fodder the stock,and look
after the hired men; they save the fanners
many steps, for the boys never get out of
breath, or never say so. They do harder
work, and aspire to do the hardest. At 16,
they take their places with the mowers ; at
11, they are expert cradlers, and pitchers,
and do every kind of work so well that
their praise is on every body's lips, and the
horney handed men look on in astonishment
to see the feats of strength and endurance j
which they show. The result is in a ma- \
jority of cases that the boys break down ; '
they strain themselves and grow out of!
shape,have fits of fainting in the field,head- j
ache, giddiness, blindness ; grow thin and j
pale, and take to their books, perhaps to
novel reading ; lose interest in the farm,
and so after all their brilliant promise, go
into some other business,or make very poor
farmers. We can name a score of very
much such cases.
There is a remedy—and it is a simple
one namely : more brain-work and less hand
ivork.
This is easier stated than carried out, for
the ambition of a good boy to work is con
stantly excited on the farm, by the results
of what work does, continually before his
eyes, and by the presence of laborers who
will inevitably encourage the greatest out
lays of energy and strength on his part.
He has no such incitements to study on the
farm, and in fact, much work and much
study are incompatible. The weary body
demands rest, in which the mind must par
ticipate. Nevertheless, the evil of over
working boys is so great that we must,
even again and again, caution parents,
and the boys themselves, against it, as one
notable cause of so many inferior farmers.
But very few farmers can afford to give
their sons anything more than what is called
"A Common School Education" —that is, as
regards book learning Almost none, how
ever, are so straightened in means that they
can not have good books and papers. They
can throw upon their sons the responsibility
of learning what other people think and
say about this or that crop, or practice, or
way of treating crops, or about the insects
which may annoy them, and about a thous
and-and-one things which may be made the
subject of investigation upon the farm.
Besides, a farmer needs a knowledge of
many other kinds of work—not straightfor
ward farming—and the young farmer's win
ters can hardly be spent to better advan
tage than in acquiring familiarity with one
or more trades. The writer well remembers
the months spent in the cabinet maker's
shop in learning the use of tools. He was
not of much use to the cabinet maker, but
the knowledge gained has been worth a
great deal to him ever since. We advise
any young farmer who can get such a place
to give two or even six months labor grat
uitously to the blacksmith in his shop, or to
the carpenter, or to the* saddler, or to the
wheelwright, and to do so every winter,un
til! a good insight is gained of these trades,
in a stony country, where wall laying is an
important accomplishment, time should be
taken to learn this, and there is some op
portunity almost every season, to learn
practically the principles of framing- hous
es, or joiner work. The use of this prac
tical education in different kinds of work
does not make a farmer a "Jack-of-all
trades," but it makes him at least a better
judge of other men's work,and a much bet
ter and "handier" farmer.
Plain Hints for Fanners
Tut: BARN. — Let the utmost neatness be
observed in the management of the barn.—
No more hay or other fodder should be
thrown into the floor at once than is requis
ite to supply one feed. By throwing a large
quantity from the mows or scaffoldings,
there is an unavoidable loss from the dry
ing of the fibre, which renders it less pala
table to the animals, as weil as less nutri
tions. Sweeping the floors daily promotes
cleanliness, and conduces to the health and
consequently the comfort of the animals.—
The "tie-ups" and "stalks," as well as the
mangers, cribs, etc., should be daily clean
ed out and frequently washed. An occa
sional whitewashing should be given to the
ceilings and partitions ; its sanitary effects
are well kuown, and of a nature ioo indis
putably obvious to admit of doubt. Ver
min rarely infest barns or animals treated
in this way. The floors of all tie-ups should
always lie of stones—large flags—which
can be thoroughly cleansed by the d ffiision
of water, and which do not become impreg
nated with the ammonical matter contained
in the urine, and the fetid animal matters
of tlie excrement.
BEDDING FOR ANIMALS. —The bet bedding
for domestic animals, with the exception of
forest leaves, is common sawdust. This if
spread under animals, will not only absorb
the urine, but makes an excellent manure
one that will decompose readily, and contri
bute powerfully to the productive powers
>f any soil. A little gypsum and pulver
ized charcoal sprinkled over the bedding
will be of important service ; it will enable
one to economize effectually the volatile
portions of the voidirigs, both liquid and
solid, and prevent any unpleasant smell
pervading the barn. Sulphuric acid is also
possessed of much value lor this purpose.
\II these are cheap—so cheap thut the pe
cuniar}' cost will scarcely be comprehended
in the estimate.
DOOR AARDS —Never allow refuse lumber,
old carts, wheels and other ruined and
worthless articles to encumber the yards
and courts around your dwelling. Nothing
indicates more certainly the prevalence of
vulgar ideas, degrading associations and
slovenly habits than this ; for no person
accustomed to the practice of neatness,and
of that commendable precision which re
quires "a place for everything and every
thing in its place," will for a moment toler
ate such a thing. The utmost neatness
should pervade such places
WOOD SHEDS. —In immediate contact with
the dwelling house, and, if practicable, in
close connection with that portion of it set
apart for the performance of household
work, there should be a wood house-large
ami airy-and so construct, d as tosubserv
the purpose of a peifect-mag , zm .- i ur f„ 1
loth green and diy. Rare shoidd at a| ,
times be found an ample supply of that ar
ticle which is said to make cheerful the
heart of the housewife, and to be more ef
fectual in diffusing the sunshine of happi
ness through a house-hold, than mortga
ges, bonds, or even gold itself.
HOG YARDS.— Keep your hog yards con
stantly and literally replenished with ma
terials for manure, —much chip manure,
sawdust, spent tan, refuse hay, straw, rub
bish from fields, and spurious vegetation
from the garden and the wood lot, rushes
peat, earth, clay, rags, cobs, rotten wood,
and, indeed, every substance that, when
rotted or reduced to its primary elements
or principles, is capable of supplying pabu
lum or pasturage to plants. \\ hen the
mass is sufficiently broken down in its phy
sical texture, cleanse out the yards and
commence accumulating more. lu this way
a large quantity of most excellent compost
may be made, and many articles ordinarily
overlooked in our imperfect economy, and
contemplated as worthless, converted to an
important and valuable use. — Cor. German
town Telegraph.
State Agricultural Society
The first quarterly meeting of the Execu
tive Committee of the Pennsylvania State
Agrisultural Society was held in this citj*
on the 21st instant
President A. Boyd Hamilton, Dauphin, in j
the chair.
Members present: Dr. James A. M'C ea,
George Blight, A Boyd Cummings, Phila
delphia ; Adrain Cornell, Bucks; W. H.
Holestein, Montgomery, John H. Cowdeu,
Schuylkill ; Joseph Sigman, Northampton ;
D. G. Dreisbach, Luzerne ; J. C. Morris,
Susquehanna ; A. E. Eapp, Northumber
land ; B. Morris Ellis, Lycoming ; N. W.

John Murdoch, Jr., Win. Bissel, Alleghe
ny ; Joshua Wright, Washington; B. G.
Peters, J. H. Ziegler and .1. B. Rutherford,
Dauphin ; A. B. Longaker, Montgomery,
Secretary.
After the transaction of the regular busi
ness of the committee—
A pretty full discussion was had upon the
existence of alleged cattle disease in cer
tain localities in the counties adjoining
Philadelphia. Several of the members pres
ent had made considerable iuv istigatiou,
who concurred in the opinion that the dis
,ease was pleuro pheumouia, and not a mal
ady beyond the reach of careful manage
ment. It was also well authenticated that
pleuro pheumouia had existed in those lo
calities with occasional fatality, for the
last four years, but that its severity is now
less than formerly. The Philadelphia agri
ricultural society,having lately made an in
vestigation of the distemper, through well
qualified veterinary surgeons, decided
against the existence of any greater sick-
I ness among the animals of that section of
! our State than is usual. Several gentlemen
J of the State society, who have made elabo
| rate inquiry, take the same view of it. It
: was, therefore, concluded not to appoint a
I committee to make special investigation at
| present, but express the opinion of the
j committee as follows :
Resolved, That no information has been
| submitted to this society justifying the be
lief that any marked contagions disease
| exist among the cattle of this State. The
I strict observance of sanitary measures is
| reccomended, and this society tenders to
i the committee of the Legislature any as-
I sistance jt may be in their power to reu-
I der in the further investigation of the sub-
The President was thereupon authorized
; to confer with the State authorities, county
I societies, or other parties,to lend the assist
\ ance of the State society in making investi
i gations, or call a special meeting of the ex
! ecutive committee if any necessity arise
for such a step.
The decision arrived at was, that the dis
ease, as at present developed, might be
enderuenic, hut certainly was not contagious.
The pbice of holding the next exhibition
was not determined, but will be announced
about the middle of April. Propositions
j were received from Erie, Pittsburg, Easton,
and West Chester, which were referred to a
committee consisting of A. Boyd Hamilton,
iA. E. Kupp, Win. Bissell, D. G. Dreisbach
J B. Rutherford, J. 11. Ziegler and A. B.
Longaker, with full authority to select the
place and to make all the necessary ar
! raugements for holding the next fair. The
; fair will be held on the 25th, 26th, 27th.and
28th days of September next.
John B. Rutherford, Esq., of Swatara,
Dauphin county, the present Treasurer,and
j A. B. Longaker, Esq., of Norristown, the
| present Recording Secreatary, were unaui
: niously elected to fill their offices for auoth
j er year.— Harrisbvrg Telegraph.
GRAFTING. —Every farmer should learn to
\do his own grafting. It is a very easy op
' oration when once understood. A sharp
penknife and a good fine saw are indispen
j sable. Splitting the stuck so that the bark
shali not be bruised—and shaping the scion
wedge-fashion both ways, preserving also
t)i bark uninjured—and placing the rim of
the wood of both stock and scion exactly
together, so that the sap can inteimingle—
; there is no danger of failure, if properly
| waxed. We make a shoulder to the graft
and think it adds to the certainty of suc
' cess, though probably weakens it. We
! prefer also two eyes or buds to a graft,and
would rather have only one than more than
two. One year's wood should always be
j used when it can be obtained, as it is more
I certain lo take and grows more vigorous
! ly
\\ e wish to remind those about prepar
• ing grafting wax, that we have found jive
I parta of rosin, one part of beeswax, and one
\ part tallow, to be the best proportions.—
j Melt them together in a skillet, (which is
the best,) or a tincup, and mix well. It
> should remain in the versel and used as
I needed. Twenty or thirty scions can be
! *vaxed with one heating up. When much
| grafting is to In- done, a fire for heating the
: wax should be made on the spot,between t wo
| bricks or stones.
MIXED STOCK IN PASTURE.—I noticed, some
time ago, a good deal written about keep
ing a mixed stock on pastures. As I have
been a keeper of stock from very early
youth uutil now*, 1 venture to give my opin
ion. And first, I have found sheep do very
well amongst cattle, but cattle do badly
amongst sheep. To prove it let the farmer
take the fodder left by the cat tie,even when
part of it has been trodden under t n ir l#et,
and if the sheep are nut fully fed, he will
see the sheep eat it up very greedily ; then
let lii;n Jake what his sheep leave and offer
it to his cattle, and he will find they won't
taste of it if they can get anything else ; or
let him turn his milch cows in a sheep pas
ture and he will find thein fail of milk. Cat
tle do well where horses pasture. In proof
' of this, every fanner must have seen that
I ca tie will eat the litter of horses, even if
fully fed, but horses won't eat what cattle
leave unless compelled to do so. But hor
ses and sheep will do well in some pastures,
especially the horses. To prove this let
the farmer turn out the sheep from their
yards, turn iu his horses, and they will eat
up all the sheep have left, even the litter
around the raeks.— Joint Johnson
