Paorrrs or C.UR FARM.—The operations of
1860 having been fairly closed, we are now
enabled to give a full account of the affairs of
our farm for the past year. The farm consists,
at present, of 53f acres of upland, and 68
aeres of woods, salt meadows, etc. As the
precise methods of culture, etc., pursued on
our farm may be found throughout our pages,
we give' without comment the report of our
Superintendent, Mr. P. T. gainu, made in
answer to the following :—Ed. Working Farmer.
Mr. P. T. QUINN. Dear Sir :—You will oblige
by furnishing me with an accurate statement
of the operations of the farm for the year 1860,
-with such remarks as you may consider neces
sary to the full understanding of your report.
Yours, respectfully, JAMES J. MATES.
Prof. J. J. MAPES. Dear Sir 2—lri complianee
with your request, I submit the following
statement of receipts and disbursements, to
gether with an account of the improvements
made since the farm Caine into your possession,
twelve years ago. The soil is a heavy, decom
posed red kellis, with a sub-soil of similar
material, nearly impervious to water, abound
ing in springs, and until exposed for a time to
atmospheric influences, quite rock-like in tex
ture, resembling furruginous sand stone ; in its
natural state nearly sterile, and seldom could
be found a more unpromising field than the
original 35 acres with which you commenced.
These were -half covered with weeds, elders,
blackberry bushes, stone fences, stretching
like great serpents ; part effectually defying
the approach of plow and cultivator, with
large bowlders scattered on and through the
sail. Any ordinary zeal would have been
deterred from the attempt to turn this tract
into a fertile and profitable garden. To rid
the ground of these unprofitable denizens, who
stubbornly maintained their rights, and to
introduce desired vegetation, was a work which
demanded lime, patience, and investment.—
The depth of surface-plowing being gradually
increased, accompanied by thorough sub-soil
plowing, efficient manuring and judicious sur
face culture,
enabled the land to be effectually
subdued. After a few experiments it was
acertained that under-draining promised pro
fitable results, and therefore the original farm,
and at later periods the accessions, were nearly
all so treated. By this means, combined with
thorough snbsoiling, the soil is now in full and
efficient filth, to a depth of eighteen inches,
and disturbed to a still greater depth. All
Vas has been produced at much less expense
than was originally anticipated, owing to the
introduction of improved and labor-saving
machines.
Daring the past ten years the farm has been
gradually increased in value by the planting of
war trees, until we now have 5000 in good
condition, and with which we have met with
the most encouraging success, attributable to
the thorough preparation of the soil, and to
the proper method of culture having been
strictly pursued.
TIL IS essential to the success of fruit trees,
that the disintegration of the soil should be
thorough before planting them, for the tree once
in place, no ingenuity can plow beneath its
roots, so as to permit the hungry fibres to de
3send ; this action cannot be insured without
ander draining and sub-soil plowing.
Both before and after putting the trees in
place, there should be a plentiful application of
inorganic manures, for fermentable manures
should in no case be applied to any kind of
fruit trees. The manures applied to the trees
have;been always of the inorganic sorts; chiefly
consisting of Mapes' Phosphates, and occasion
ally slight dressings of unleached wood ashes.
After fairtrial we have arrived at the con
elusion, that our soil and climate are not fa
vorable to the profitable culture of grapes, and
are therefore removing, as agreed upon last
year, the Vineyard, substituting pear trees in
place of the vines.
With the currant, however, our experience
lias been far more encouraging. We of course
commenced with the Red Dutch, which has be
come much improved by extra culture, and we
intend to plant more of this old kind during
she coming year, notwithstanding the excel
lence of the Versailles, which will, before many
years, be propagated in sufficient quantities to
take preeminence. The Cherry Currant was
not at first very prolific but it bore better last
year, and we hope to find it improve greatly by
age.
Our cultivation of the Raspberry has also
been crowned with success. The Fastolf,
Franconia, Red Antwerp,White Antwerp, being
the best marketable varieties; but for imme
diate use, the Brinkle's Orange is very desira
ble, being fine flavored, melting, and prolific,
though too soft for transportation.
The Lawton Blackberry we have had for six
years under cultivation, with great success. In
cola, northern exposures, it is liable to be win
ter-killed. When the fruit is fully ripe it is
delicious; but from its extreme acidity, tasting
ca if a "quart of berries has been sharpened
to a pint," before its full maturity, the Lawton
has met with some pretty keen rebuffs.
Of Strawberries we have now fifty varieties
on trial; of these we are at present inclined to
advocate the long approved Hovey's, Wilson's,
Hooker's Seedling, and Triomphe de Gand, as
the most profitable for market, to which list we
'ill be glad to add others, after another year's
We have thus far preferred to cultivate small
fruits for the sake of the fruit itself, but the
growing demand for reliable plants is fast per
suading us to turn our attention to their pro
pagation.
The purpose of the farm has been steadily
directed to the production of fruit and seed, but
in order to accomplish this, the produce was at
first chiefly that of the market garden. The
yield per acre has been steadily upon the in
crease for these crops; but little by little the
favorite plants have encroached upon their en
riched domain, until we are nearly confined to
the cultivation of fruits and seeds. We have
judged it strict economy to use in all cases the
best labor saving implements, and the Nitrogen
ised Super-phosphate of Lime, to which we have
no hesitation in ascribing our most profitable
neenits.
Portions of the land now in grass, are main
tained in good condition by top a dressing of two
hundred pounds of phosphate per acre. If the
grass should give any indication of running out.
the subsoil plow is run through, in lines four
feet apart. This loosens the soil, the grass im
mediately begins to tiller, and the field is re
stored. In connection with the fertilizers enu
merated below, we have availed ourselves of all
memo produced. upon the farm,
