EaSßiles of the Corn Crop.
Unlike wheat and nejrlf every other cer
eal, ihe enemies of corn, work chiefly in the
earlier stages of the growing crop. Spring
froits, ihe'cut, and the wire worm, the crow,
weeds, cold rams &c., tell upon the corn, if
ai all early in the season. It is true that a
cold bad summer has its influence, and autum*
nal frosts bow and then come untimely ; but
in Ihe warm dry season of our climate, both
of these dangers can be mostly guaided
against or counieracted. There is more fear
of drouih in mid-summer, than of too exces
sive moisture, and both these extremes are
mnai effectually prevented by the same idem
ucal treatment, viz : drainage and deep thor
ough culture. The more porous and deep n
soil is, the more water it is capable of hold
ing m suspension as a protection against long
rainless seasons; and when water is in ex
cess, ihe surplus portion fillers through into
the drains below, and passes harmlessly away.
The wire worm is a grievous annoyance
in many localities, not unfreijuently ruining
ihe crop by destroying the seed before it has
time to germinate. Many remedies have been
prescribed (or the evil, and have been prac
ticed with varied success. A year or so ago
a farmer in Ihe western part of this county,
stated to us that the most effectual remedy
he had found, was Ihe use of hog manure,
assuring us that he had tried it repeatedly,
and wuh invariable success. It might be ap
plied, he said, broadcast and plowed under,
or ihe corn might be manured in the hill.
He preferred the former course, ns more like
ly to secure future crops against the depreda
tor, So confident was he of the remedy,
that in addition to publishing his statement in
the Rural. «e made application to an agricul
tural friend, and requested him to lest the
malic:. He had, he staled, a spot of an acre
nr so in extent, upon which the year before
ihe wire-worm entirely destroyed the crop,
besides commuting great ravages in other por
tions of (tie (iclc Upon tins, he promised
to trv the experiment, and did so, last season
wiiti enure success, as he assured us.
Up spread hog mannre from his pen over
the "mfeuted dislricl,” and did nol lose a hill
o corn irom Ihe ravages of llie worm. He
has great confidence in ihe remedy, and in
sists that n will prove entirely effectual. One
irung is certain, and that is, no harm can
arise Irom the application. Unlike some
remedies, which, if they do not cure are sure
to kill, and as a general thing lake that horn
of the dilemma, this application of hog ma
nure will be invaluable as a fertilizer, if it
does nothing more; and we hope others of
our'readers, whose fields are troubled with
Hus pest, will lest the mallet by further ex
periments. One swallow does nol make a
summer, and one successful result -will no I
establish a principle. If similar trials ate
hod in different parts of the country, with
corresponding success, we may then reason
ably conclude that the remedy is certain ; if
results vary, but all prove more or less suc
cessful, we may consider it efficacious under
certain circumstances, and must then discov
er what those circumstances are. We will
vouch, for its value as a manure, at all events,
and warrant, either directly or indirectly, a
full return for the coat and trouble expended.
How to Hake Good Butter.
Having read several communications in the
Farmer on making good butler, and not see
ing any that comes up to my ideas, I will
now give my practice, (or rather that of my
wife,) and some of the causes of not making
good.buite:
1. should never be set for buller/in a
dark,; damp cellar—as is the case with butter*
makers in this section—as the cream is there
by moulded before it has lime to rise, which
gives the butler a mouldy taste.
2. The milk is allowed to set toolong be
fore being skimmed, which gives it a cheesy
taste
3. The cream is kept 100 long, before it is
skimmed, which gives it the taste of the other
two ; and also a sour taste.
4. The butter should never bo washed in
water because it takes away that beautiful
aroma so essential in good butter.
5. It should never be taken in a person’s
hoods, as the heat melts a certain portion of
the globules, which gives it an oily taste, and
makes it become rancid very soon.
6. The milk should be set in good clean
tin or jeanhern pans, in a dry, open, airy dnd
shady place, above ground, if possible, al
though a cellar may be so built and ventila
ted, as to answer the purpose. It should
never beset over twenty-four hours in warm
weather; and for a dairy of three cows or
more, the cream should be churned every
morning end never be kept over forty-eight
hours, in warm weather ; in cold weather it
may be kept longer. It should always be
about the same heat that the milk is when
drawn from the cow, and churped steadily,
and I have never known it to fail of coming
readily j it is then taken from the churn with
a wooden butter ladle, into a wooden tray,
which has been well scalded and cooled in
pure cold waters ; the salt is then worked in,
to suit the taste, with the ladle, which is easily
done, with a little practice, and the butter
milk well worked out; it is then set away in
a cool place for about twenty-four hours,
when it is well worked over again, as long
as milk or pickle can be worked out. Butler
made in this way and put down in stone pots,
and kept front the air, will keep good for a
long time. C. S. W.
Remedy foe Girdled Tbees. —As il has
been a good winter for mice to work at fruit
trees, on account of the snow, I wish to make
known a remedy. In March, 1855, as the
snow was going off, f -found four of my apple
trees completely girdled by the mice nearly
a foot from the ground. I took a shovel and
made-a mound of dirt around two of them.
Last fall I dug down and found them barked
over. One of them bore several apples;
both an> doing well. The other two are both
dead. They should be seen to at once.
