Agriculture-
Since mankind has become civilized,there
has beeu no more pursuit which has contri
buted more to promote the comfort and con
sequent happiness of the human race than
agriculture. Through it the arts and sci
ences have been developed and brought to
their present state and perfection. Until
quite recently in the world's history, agri
cultural labor was mostly entrusted to j
bondsmen and slaves, which labor applied
to the virgin soil, produced enough to sup
port the population of the country by sim
ply plowing and sowing ; therefore no im
provement could necessarily he expected.
Whenever the produce of any country |
exceeds the demand, no attention is given
to agriculture ; but it is left to plod its
weary way the best it can. As long as this
country raises cereals for export it is a fact
that a majorityof our farmers will allow their
farms to deteriorate in value and produc
tiveness. That there is an absolute neces
sity at the present time for agricultural im
provement ueeds no argument to convince
any reflecting mind that the soil of the old
States does not produce as much per acre
as it did half a century ago. Even Ohio
does not produce as much as the virgin soil
of the West. Hence, in many of the older
States we find farmers selling their farms,
and removing West. In 1860 there were
4,690 less farmers in the State of Ohio than
there were in ISSO. This is a relative loss
of 54,513 inhabitants, according to the in
crease of population. If such be facts, who
knows but,within the nextfew generations,
we shall have a landed aristocracy, but lit
tle inferior to that of England. The truth
is, there are but few farmers in this coun
try, who are unwilling to sell their farms at
the first opportunity when a fair price is of
fered. So long as farms are bought and
sold with as much facility as horses, just
so long ma}' we expect the fertility of the
soil to decrease. Are we making the pro
gress in agriculture that we should, or are
following the principles and theories of our
grandfathers ? This is a question every
practical farmer should ask himself. Be
cause our ancestors did everything by physi
cal labor.it is no reason why we should not
use all the labor-saving machines which our
means justify.
Up to the year 1800, agriculture had been
followed as the mechanical arts h been
pursued ; the farmers had no true idea of
the cause of the fertility of the soil, and
since that time we have had many import
ant changes brought about by ingenious
mechanics, chemists and botanists, in re
gard to agricultural implements, constitu
ents of the soil, vital properties of plants,
&c.; and there is no doubt in the minds of
men properly informed on the subject, that
where science is properly applied to practi
cal agriculture, that the results will be as
salutary as the spring showers are to vege
tation. . B. M. B.
Blackberry Wine.
The season is now at hand for the ripen
ing first of the dewberry and then of the
blackberry. It is well known to most of
our people that from these two berries may
be made a wine both excellent for the table
and the kitchen, and highly valuable for
the sick room—in some classes of diseases,
especially affections of the bowels, more
valuable than the costliest foreign wines,
even when pure. But while it is generally
known that such is the case, for few of
our good kousekeepers know how to make
the wine properly, and the miserable stuff
usually exhibited as blackberry wine has
led many to think that its process is very
difficult and the result very uncertain, and
consequently most of our ladies are deter
red from making the attempt.
On the contrary, the process is very sim
ple and the result almost certain, if ordina
ry care is taken. Agood winefor ordinary
purposes, where the berries are gathered at
home,may he made for forty cents a gallon,
and a capital wine for sixty to seventy cents
a gallon. The writer has made it fur se
veral years past, sufficient for his family
use and friends, and has not failed in any
instance. Either ol the following methods
may be pursued advantageously :
Gather the berries when perfectly ripe
and avoid bruising—as gathered, empty
them into a tub until you have enough to
produce wine in sufficient quantity to fill
one of your kegs or casks. Eacli bushel of
ripe berries, ii good, will produce from sev
en to nine gallons of wine. Have ready
the kegs or barrels in which your wine is
to be put, a beatnr made of seasoned hick
ory, cedar or ash—a pail, large bowl or
tureen covered with several folds of flannel
or blanket, as a strainer, a Npare tub or
two, a couple of yards of osnaburgs, and a
tub of soft spring water, ahd be careful to
have everything, especially the kegs <.r
casks, as clean and free from odor of any
kind as is possible.
( rush the berries thoroughly with the
beater, and then after straining the liquor,
which runs freely from the pulp through
the folded flannel, empty it into the cask,
measuring it as you put it in. When the
juice has been all drained from the pulp,you
proceed to press the pulp dry. If the quan
tity is large, this had best be done by a
regular press, but if o dy twenty or thirty
gallons arc wanted, the osnaburgs answer
very well. Stretch out the osnaburgs, put
a gallon or a gallon and a half of the pulp
into the centre, fold the cloth over it on
each side, and let a strong hand at either
end twist the cloth with ali their strength ;
when the juice is well pressed out, remove
and lay aside the cake of pomace, and put
in more pulp. lliis process is apparently
rough, but is both rapid and effectual The
juice so extracted is strained and measur
ed into the cask before mentioned. The
flannel strainer and the osnaburgs may
need rinsing occasionally during the work.
W hen all the pulp is pressed, put the
hard cakes of pomace taken from the cloth
into a tub,and pour upon them a little more
soft spring water,than you have clear juice,
break up the balls and wash them thor
oughly in the water, so as to obtain all the
juice left in the mass, and then strain it
clear ; measure out as many gallons of this
water as you have clear juice, dissolve in
each gallon of water six pounds of sugar,
(brown or white, as you want a common or
fiist iate wine,) and when thoroughly dis
solved, add the juice, (first passing it again
through the strainer.) and mix them. Then
rir.se out your cask, put it where it can
stand undisturbed in a cellar, fill it perfect
ly full of the mixture, and lay a cloth loose
ly over the hung hole. In two or three
days fermentation will commence, and the
impurities run over at the hung ; look at it
every day, and if it does not run over, with
some of the mixture which you have re
served in another vessel, fill it up to the
bung. In about three weeks fermentation
will have ceased, and the wine be still ; fill
it again, drive in the hung tight, nail a tin
over it, and let it remain undisturbed until
the following November, or, what is better,
March Then draw it off, without shaking
the cask, pnt it into bottles or demijohns
cork tightly and sea! over.
/or i tfnrfy gallon /ask, you will need
av. V U,nu t-u gailo;,,, ,f juice, thirteen gal-1
nv■■■ A and *v i.ty-eight pounds of ,
sugar, and in the same proportion, for lar-1
ger or smaller quantities. Some persons
add spirit to the wine, but instead of doing
good, it is ouly an injury.
Another process is, after pouring in the
mixture for a thirty gallon cask, to beat up
the whites of six or eight eggs into a froth,
pnt them into the cask and with a long
stick mix them thoroughly with the wine.
In five or six days, draw the now clarified
wine off by a spigot and without shaking
the cask at all, into a clean cask, bung up
and tin, to be drawn off into glass in No
vember or March.
The more carefully the juice is strained,
the better the quality of your sugar, and
the more scrupulously cleau your utensils,
particularly your kegs, and the purer and
better will be your wine.
The best quality, when you gather your
own fruit, and make it yourself, costs you
only the price of the white sugar, and when
bottled has cost you in money ouiy twelve
and a half cents a bottle. — Richmond Far

Troatment of Horses.
Many valuable horses are yearly spoiled,
or nearly so, by the improper management
of those haviug them in charge. Careless
or ill tempered grooms do much mischief to
horses. They first do their work in a slov
enly manner, while the last, though thor
ough enough as regards labor, perform '
their operations in so rough a manner as to j
excite the animal to resistance, rendering ;
him suspicious and intractable. The first j
thing to be done,in taking in hand a strange j
horse, is to come to a pleasant understan- j
ding with him. On approaching the animal :
for the first time,if the right stamp,the horse j
will examine the party making his acquain-1
tance with great inteutuess. The scrutiny j
should be mutual—eye meeting eye steadi- j
ly, and, on the part of the groom, pleasant- j
ly. If the result of the examination on the j
part of the horse be favorable, a deep and
long-drawn respiration will succeed,foliow
ed by a return to the food upon which he
had been solacing himself when first inter
rupted, implying thereby that he is ready
to be dealt with in such way as may be
deemed best for the interests of all concern
ed. On the contrary, if the interview has
not been agreeable,the horse will throw up
his head, look angry, and move restlessly
about, indicating that a continuance of the
acquaintance is not desirable. In case,
soothing words with corresponding manip
ulations ; the exercise of patience, a virtue
as effective with horses as with the genus
homo, will generally terminate in a good
understanding. This once established,there
will be little chance of trouble thereafter.
If severity, at any time, becomes indispen
sable, let it be of a character so decisive as
to carry conviction and reformation with it.
These attained, let the treatment be such
as to convince the animal that nothing is
remembered to his deteirment in conse
quence of past disagreements.
In grooming a horse men sometimes use
a heavy curry-comb and a heavier hand,not
because they are necessary to the cleaning
process, but simply to see how the animal
will "cut up." This is all wrong, and it is
a pity that a groom thus abusing his pow
cr, could not be made to change places
with the horse as often as the wrong is
perpetrated. Many horses, and good ones
too, are thin-skinned and peculiarly sensi
tive to the touch of the curry-comb. Such
might well be spared the infliction, since a
wisp of hay and a card with fine teeth will
be found ample for the purposes of clean
ing and friction. A heavy and rough in
strument, used with an unsparing hand
makes the horse suspicious, sours his tem
per and sometimes induces disagreeable
retaliation. A horse well and properly
groomed twice a day, will appear better,
feel better, work more vigorously and be
less likely to become ill, than if neglected
or left to such grooming only as a fence
corner or a friendly rack may supply.
Training Heifers-
It is a very easy matter to train a heifer
to stand quietly to be milked ; but it is an
easier matter to train them to jump, kick
and run. The way to teach them to stand
still is to always require them to do so.—
The way to teach them the contrary is to
give them a good opportunity for doing so.
If there i 8 naught to hinder a wild heifer
from running, and her tears prompt her to
run, she can and will run. On the contrary,
if she cannot run, in a short time she loses
her fear, aud stands from habit, and habit
is one of the most powerful influences in
this world, either for brute or man.
If you want to transform a wild heifer in
to a well-behaved, well-trained cow, you
must be patient, and exhibit no temper.—
Never strike or kick her. She must first of
all get acquainted with you, and learn that
you will not hurt her. She must learn not
to fear you. If, in winter, it is best to milk
in the stable, make as little fuss and as few
alarming motions as possible. Handle very
gently. Be careful and not pinch the teats.
This is a great source of trouble. A cow
naturally wishes to be rid of her milk. She
stands quietly until some careless milker
has given a squeeze that hurts, when she
kicks and runs. By allowed such a course
a few times, the habit will be confirmed.
The best way to manage, if you have no
stable, is to have a small, well-fenced yard,
and teach your heifers to stand for milking
in that, or, next best, to tie them, using
them very quietly. \Y r o have trained a wild
young heifer to milk on the open prairie by
putting a rope about her horns and holding
the rope while milking, so that if she star
ted we were ready to stop her, thus keep
ing ber under our control
No man or boy is lit to handle animals
unles he can control them, and control him
self. Neither is it right to chastise the ig
norant.—(Jor. Western Rural.
KEEPING MILK AND (JREAM SWEET.— Every
farmer should possess an ice-house They
who do not wish to go to much expense
can have them made altogether of lumber
above ground, according to the directions
we have often given. They would save
the expense in a year, in the preservation
of milk, butter, poultry, meats, <ic , inten
ded lor market or home consumption.—
Where, however, it is inconvenient to have
an ice-house, it is a good plan to make an
excavation in the cellar, say four feet by
six in the clear, and four feet deep ; wall
up with brick or plank : put a good door
upon it with a small hole (an inch auger
hole) in the top of it for ventilation,and tire
temperature will be reduced several de
grees, preserving your cream, butter and
meats admirably.
ACTIVE .MANURE. —One of the most active
manures, and readily within the reach of
most f. rmers, is a mixture of leached ash
es, plaster, and night soil mixed with line
soil. Let them be thoroughly worked over
on a smooth spot, and allowed to stand a
week before using, working it over every
other day, and you have a most valuable
manure at a trilling cost of time. A handful
of ttiis mixture in a hill is excellent to give
corn a start. Potatoes and garden vegeta
bles generally feel it very quick Hen ma
nure is an excelk nt ingredient in such ma
nures, but it should be well slaked with
water before mixing with other substances.
