One Important cause Of Non-Iinprove-
ment in Agriculture,

had occasion to visit the son of a friend
OF mine, at school Of great respectability
in wealthy agricultural district. The
master, very intelligent person showed
me the details OF his we'll arranged estab-
iishmcnt which was certainly a pattern i'm
every respect On entering the Well-filled
schoolroom he observed, that most of his
scholars were farmers sons.- GIaHcing at
his library inquired what books on agri-
cultural subjects it coritainedl The mas
ter seemed struck with surprise, Gas is The
thought of such books had never occurred
TO him. and replied, "Wi,h shame ac-
knowledge, not One but send me list OF
such as you recommend, and will imme-
dia'c'y procure them" Now, Iapprehend4
this case might be multiplied by thou
sand or more. Can we wonder then that
youth who never heard the word agricul-
tnre at school, and who is seldnnt or .1aeper
sent into different districts to be taught
agriculture as science, should 60 borne
to his parent, and follow his plan of farm-
ing -be good, bad,,,r indif'ei ent. In all
other trades and professions apprentice
ship is considered essential to the acquire
ment of knowledge; but farming, the tiost
necessary of all trades, is to be left TO
chance, or rather mischance. A system of
uniformity is essential in making a hat,
coat, or shoes-therc are established edu-
cational rules for the church, the bar, and
the Senate: but agriculture, the greatest
interest of all, on which our very existence
depends economically and politically, is to
be like ship without compass, tossed
about by the ever-varying gale of individual
opinion, without a hope OF reaching the
Port Of Perfection. Were youth ever so
much inclined to furnish his mind with
comparisons and observations of the various
systems Of culture in our own different
counties, as well as in foreign clinies, there
is under the present school system, no OPP
portunity for his doing 50; and, no doubt, la
would be surprised iftold that we are a
century at least behind the Chinese in
agricultural practice. hope we shall soon

agriculture--ifhe he does, it is unfortunate

on the wrong side of perfcction.--L j.

a horse that is driven on hard roads isslia-
bic TO get stiff in the joints. In 1883, I
had an animal which, after driving three or
Tour days. got quite lame. An old Baiti-
more teamster told me to wash the mares
legs IN tolerably salt brine, which was
done accordingly three times day, for the
balance OF the journey. The Stiffness dis
appeared in a few days, and drove the
mare l,400 miles afterwards, and there
was no more on that account. What
pleased me most was, the mare had q very
poor foot to hold shoe when started; it
was very brittle and hard; it would break
out when nail was put in: but it grawsto-
gether at every shoeing. a blacksmith in
New England remarked to me that her foot
had a singular appearance; where he pared
It It was soft aud tough Taceount for II in
this way: salt will extract moisture from
the atmosphere, which keeps the foot moist
all the time; and salt has nearly the same
effect that grease has on a foot or piece
of timber. The tlrippings from salt on
floor, il continued long, cannot be got OF;
the wood becomes moist and tough. and so
with horses foot. After washing the
lcgs, turn up the horses foot, clean the
bottom, pour The hollow full of brine, and
hold for few minutes to soak The bottom.
The practice OF rasping the apo, all over to

The Cultivator's Notice of the Fair.

Our agricultural friends will find in this
article the expression of warm friend, not
only of their County, but of its people
The associate Editor Of the Cultiya,or, Mr.
Howard, on bis recent and former visits to
this district, has commended himself to those
who were so happy as to meet him, for his
cordial and happy temper, as well as for bis
accomplishments as an observer Of stock and
agricultural processes. He received some
portion of the hospitality, with which modest
and substantial worth deserves TO be greeted
in intercourse with those for whom its cxer-
tions are put forth, but less by far than If
the kindly feelings, with which his examina-
tons were made, had been understood by
those with whom he met as a stranger nero
ly.
The observations made by him therefore,
have been noted down in the kindest spirit,
and will deserve the attention of those who
are willing to lie instructed by their friends.
1t will he seen he places our advantages of
soil and situation at point, high enough to
be honorable in the estimation OF the coun.
try generally ;such as must lay upon us a
corresponding responsibility in cultivation,
as the attention of distant communities is
directed 10 us, for the most successful returns
both in stock and fruit culture, as well as in
the usual staple products of husbandry. If
there is any justice in this position, it de-
serves the generous emulation Of all classes
to M, ntan it, md the more, as the writer
bod had occa,;,,, to know, ,,.hough he did not
here express it, as des,ce of inte'"'aenc''
certainly not less noteworthy al honor
able,is employed amongst our cultivators, to
mako these advantages available in roputa-
ton, as well as profitable to themselves.
That an increase of this intelligence may
be desirable, even 10 the extent of scientific
attainment with those on whom the respon-
sibility chiefly falls, We have not now time
to iusisr, but, it is obvious, if nature with its
soil and climate, and art with lis means Of
intercommunicalion have done so much, the
power of further improvement must rest in
the skill of culture only, whose greatest TIL
umphs are yet to come. This also is worth
thinking Of if we have fairly reached the
position from which This subject opens to
view.
