MIXED MANURES.

Judge Longstreth. of Pennsylvania, ono of the
most distinguished Agrculturalsts of that State,
mentioned in conversation short time since,
that he had at length got his farm hands Into the
practice of scattering every morning when they
visited the stable handful or so of plaster over
the manure excremented during the night and
previous day. In this way the ammonia of the
dung is fixed, and reduced to the condition of sui
phate of ammonia, or rather, an ammoniated Sui
phate of Lime. That is the ammoncal gas, which
is the most ertilizing part, is kept in the manure,
until you want it in the crop, and then like the
Western man at the fight, you will "always find
it thar" ready to feed the maws of your plants.
In consequence of this practice of Judge LIS. his
horses eyes were not injured, nor do their human
-s-~~.s ~s>ece. i"ss"~ e"ionoo ny Inc sharp, pun
gent and valuable salt escaping into and filling
the confined atmosphere of their stables, and sub
sequently to be lost in the air. Their eyes cease
to water in a few moments after the plaster is
put on Virginia Free Press.

THE FARMER Is NOT PROPERLY ES-
TIMATED.

1t is amentable fact that the farmer does not
occupy that elevated position in society that his
occupation justly entities him to. He is looked
upon as being quite below the lawyer, physician.
divine, artist, merchant or merchants clerk. 10
be farmer, is to be nobody, a mere clodhopper, a
digger of bogs, bitches and dung heaps, and free
to wallow in the Fsfree soip' he cultivates, pro-
vided he never seeks to elevate himself above that
position, to which the worlds calls good society. !,
Hence comes the desire of 'sthe boys'' to escape.
not so much the drudgery of their employment
as from the idea that they are looked upon and
estimated as mere drudges
What blindness, folly and false philanthropy is
this? The result of these false premises is, that
the professions" are crowded to the starvation
point; clerks not only go begging, but become
beggars or worse; merchants are multiplied, and
good old fashioned labor is going out Of fashion.
While We would give all due honor to the pro-
LESSONS, the farmer, who is the producer, of all,
both in food and raiment, that adds to the com
fort and sustenance Of the human family, need not
feel that ne is beloo occupations that gain their
support from the folly, pride, misery or wickedness
of their fellow creatures.
If the aspiration of farmers were half so strenp
to elevate their sons as farmers, as it is to MAKE
them merchants or professional men, s. perchance
loafers, we should soon be taught to look to the
Agricultural class for the best Bred as well as the
bsst fed men in America.-Barnun.'s address.

FENCES AND ROTATION OF CROPS.

Timber in many sections Of country is becoming
scarce and valuable. and it seems necessary to de-
wise some method (if we must have enclosures) OF
dividing our farms so as to have as few fences as
possible, and to have systematic rotation OF crops
The method that many have pursued, IS to nave
their farms divided into seven or eight or even ten
fields, which are a large annual expense to keep
enclosed well, and some Of their fields Will have
to remain In Cor rather out of) grass, until they
are much injured.
Now, | think much better plan would be to
divide our farms into five fields; each containing
an equal number of acres; beginning with No. =,
and planting with corn the first year. The second
year with oats in the spring, and wheat in the
fall, taking especial care to manure we'll, for all
depends upon that, and seeding down with .imo-
thy at the time Of sowing wheat, provided it is
toIeraby dry land. If the land is quite moist, it
would be better to defer sowing timothy until
winter, Gas it would b. likely to choke the wheat)
at which time it would be necessary to SOW I'M
sparingly with clover seed the sooner after the
first of January the better, provided there is not
snow on the ground. The third year the harvest
will come of. The fourth year pasture clover
The fifth year NOW timothy 1sls.

STALL FEEDING.

In the management of cattle, no decent farmer
would think of fattening score of animals upor
the food that would barely serve to keep them in
lean condition If he wanted TO make money
and to realize profit from his beef, his policy
would be to sell off half his lean stock, and to
fatten his other half upon his supply of food, for
what would keep score would fatten halt that
number. In this way he would evidently De
gamer He would save the labor OF ieedlng Inc
animals, and have converted into marketable meat
the food which they would have required to keep
them lean, and which then, in great measure,
would have been lost. We 60 upon this hypothe-
sis, if an animal requires 20 lbs Of forage to sup
ply daily exhaustion, it cannot increase in flesh
upon this bare supply but if the animal can d.
gest 40 lbs of food per day, or double what is ne
cessary to supply absolute want, all the addition
al 90 lbs, or most Of it, goes to the increase of
meat, milk, SC. Now let US apply these remarks
to the crops. A farmer cultivates ~ acres OF
corn, spreading upon each acre five loads of ma
nure If he gets 80 bushels an acre, he thinks ne
does we'll His labor upon each acre is worth
Sl5-or on the whole 20 acres is worth $500
and he gets 600 bushels of corn which, at so cents
per bushel, Just remunerates him for his labor
His crop like the lean cattle is just SO 30. lie
gets stalks, but comparatively little or no corn
Now suppose the food that is given to the ~
acres sufficient just to keep in it the breath OF
life, if this fguratve expression is admissible, is
all applied to five acres, which may be termed
stall feeding, let US see what would be the result
We maintain, and our experience for years will
warrant US in the declaration, that the average
produce Of stall feeding corn, may be safely stated
at 50 bushels to the acre. Thus the product Of
5 acres would be AGO bushels, and the expense of
culture, at ST. S per acre, S75-showing profit
of one hundred and twenty five dollars, or twenty
five dollars an acre Thus five acres well fed
would be worth Sl25 per annum more thsn
twenty acres badly fed.
The comparisons we have made will be suf-
ficient to justify US in suggesting, as rules in
farming
/. Not to work more land than can be well
worked and well fed and,
g. Not to keep more cattle than the crops off
the farm will feed and tatten, and than may be
made profitable to the owner.

MAN UR e.

"Enich the soil and prosperity Jollo,os."
Manure is the capital of the farmer, and with
out it but little can be done in his line with
profit. Every one ought therefore to be on the
alert to increase the quantity by every means in
his power, for there is nothing that compounds
itself like manure. If any one disputes this,
let him make fair experiment, & see if the result
does not prove the truth of what say. Take
an acre Of ground and give it a good covering Of
manure, then compare its product with that Of an
adjoining acre not MANFRED, and there will be no
mistake.
Put in the bottom of the manure yard some abb
sorbent material to take up the fluids, and occa-
sonally spread over the whole surface layer of
earth sods from the road side or ditch bank, and
bring in all the weeds, potatoe stalks, leaves.
spent ashes, manure from the poultry Joost, every
offal, either animal vegetable, that can be col
lected. 'sEvery little helps-of small things
great ones are composed" The manure heap is
the foundation of all good farming, and those
who do not attend to this most essential matter,
will fail in proportion to their neglect. 1t is no
small matter to have 40 or 60 bushels of corn to
the acre, instead of2O to 49, and other crops in
the same proportion the labor being the same.
have long noticed that thriving farmers go on
annually increasing the quantity Of manure, while
those who are going down hill ale generally pre-
ceded in their downward progress by gradual
collapse of the manure hill. Keep it up! and as
if by sympathetic action, your purse will swell
amazingly. Manure begets grain and grass, and
grass begets more manure, and SO on to the end Of
the chapter of prosperity. But, no manure, and
the reverse will be the result.
The best method have discovered in manur-
ing lands is, to haul the manure on the lands in
tended for seeding during the first and second
weeks in August, and have it Immediately plough
ed down. But there are great many farmers
who haul out their manure and spread it over thei
lands, and leave it lay in that state for three OF
four weeks before they plough it down. This i:
great error-and the reason is, that the hot SUI
and dry winds so completely dry and evaporat
the manure. that the lands thus treated are no
benefited one half as much as they are where til
manure is Immediately ploughed down.

BEWARE OF CouNTERFR1Ts,,

A LMOST every system of medicines that the
~ world has ever produced-and there have
been many Of them-hss proved less beneficial
than the practice which leaves TO nature the per-
Torrance Of a cure. The true philosophy Of dis
ease, and its treatment, seem never 10 have BEEN
discovered by the legazed profession, legalized
empiricsm. But, they have allowed the most
beautiful and important science which the human
mind can cultivate 10 lie buried under crude and
undigested mass of materials, collected through
many centuries by superficial observers and WIS.,
ionaIy theologists. The language of medicine
has been vague and inaccurate, often used to OBJ
scNre the most simple truths, and to give to mere
fiction of the Imagination the appearance of reality.
So mysterious has been the practice of physic in
all ages that even philosophers Of reputation have
regarded medicine as deeeittnl art, the empire Of
which was founded. and its existence continued
solely on the credulity and weakness of man. They
ell US that nature has placed in all her works the
means Of restoring order, and when these means
inefficient, the pretended resources of medical
men are wholly useless. The secret springs of the
human frame are, say these philosophers, entirely
causes OF their arrangement Opinions Like these
have been spread abroad among intelligent mep--
They were the natural result Of the system Of En-.
piricism that existed in the profession. Some en-
lightened physicians were induced to regard msdis
cine in much the same light.

known, have been most considered, and the
best understood of all the medicines of the day.

But should there be crude matters in the circu-

of Dr. Brandreth may occasion some slight incon-
