John-Why William! how do you do?
Wiliam-very well indeed, sir, it is quite cold
this morning.
John--Yes, and it bids fair for continuing so
for the present, by the by, speaking ofthc
weather, begin to feel my old light clothes a
little unreasonable, and n replenshing Of my
wardrobe is necessary, or the ghting frosts OF
winter will be upon me unprepared.
William-Well John, it is not safe policy TO
let these things be too long, that every person
must admit, but you need not be put TO the least
Inconvenience at the present time. A II you
have to do is to step down to WELLS and yon
can suit yourself with any kind Of clothes you
want, except Boots and Shoes. lie thinks there
are men engaged in that business exclusively,
enough to supply the wants OF the community,
and he goes on the principle Of trying TO lire and
let lire.
Johh--Ah, that's the reason Wells don't keep
Boots and Shoes. Then such a man should be
encouraged by every friend OF Home Industry,
and whatever want in his line of business
will buy of him, il he will sell to me right.
William--Try him. ind ifyon can't deal with
him, you can not with any man in this town,
that know; and if you want any thing maize TO
order, he will warrant to give perfect satisiac-
ton.
John-Thank you sir, will call on HIM.

1--WE have received the excellent
communication, which we give below,
from thoroughly Practical Farmer of
this county. We commend the propo-
sition to the consideration of the A gr-
cultural community. We fear that &c.
Gil is somewhat behind the age in the
application of Science to agriculture.
The day has gone past when adherence
to the modes and manners of our ances-
tors, merely because they are such, is
either profitable or polite.

Mr.. EDlToR:-Several months since, |
sent communication for your useful
paper, suggesting the propriety of get
ting up an Agricultural Society in this
county, with a view of ultimately estab.
fishing Chemical ASSOCIATION, was in
hopes it would have elected from some
person more. competent than myself, a
response; but, believe it was not par.
ticularly noticed at the time. think,
however, since the publication OF the
report of the State Agricultural Chem.
list, those at least who have read it feel
that the most important interest of the
Farmer is to understand the chemical
properties of his soil. would therefore
repeat the suggestion. 1t would cost
but little, in proportion, for number
Of Farmers to procure Chemical appa-
ratus, sufficient for the purpose, and to
hire competent person to teach the
science, in some central part Of the
county, where, no doubt, some of our
talented young men would soon learn
sufficient for the purpose of Analysing
soils; when the quality OF every mans
soil in the county could be cheaply, as.
certained.

PoTAToEs.-The following letter from
Vermont farmer, addressed to Govern
or Bigler, makes some suggestions IN re-
gard TO the cultivation of potatoes, that
may be worthy of a trial.
EAST PoULTNEy, March Sth, 1859.
10 the Goreanor Of the State Of Pennsw-
van1d.
|, Abner Lewis, of Poultney county,
OF RUTLAND, and State of Vermont think
l have found out a new way of raising
potatoes, to keep them from roning or
rustang, of much better quality and
abundant crop. Plow and harrow the
ground, and furrow lightly; PUNT early;
drop the potatoes in the fnrrow, and
put on each hill handful of leares,
then cover lightly with dirt, hoe them
when quite small, then plaster, and they
will soon be fit for killing.
Please try the above to your full sat.
isfaction, and publish the same through.
out the State. If the above proves a re-.
'ar public b. neft, the State will please
reward tie undersigned whatever they
see fit. Yours respectfully,
ABNER LEWIS.

From the American Farmer.
ROOT CROPS.

II is our purpose now to call the at.
tentlon OF our readers to the proprietv
Of cultivaring roots as part of their
winter food for their stock, but we de-
sire not to be understood that they can
be subsisted advahtageously solely upon
this kind of food, as he who undertakes
to rely upon roots in this connection
will be disappointed. From the succu.
l"nce Of such food it is naturally open.
ing, and stock, therefore, who may re-
celve it should be given nearly their
usual quantities of long dry food TO cor
rect this tendency. If gwen in this
way the effects of the roots will be
highly salutary, whereas, if administers
ed as the only reliance, it might prove
too relaxing for tho animal economy.
and disappoint expectation. Even to
: horses, carrots as an alternate food we
have derived the most essential benefits
from. In cases where horses are hide
bound and their hair starry, a few days
feeding, in part, with carrots will cor
rect those evils; but still these animals
should receive with the carrots about
one-ha!f their usual quantities of grain,
and ordinary quantity of hay or long
provender. but be that what it may.
The feeding of roots should be used
with discretion, if used as an integral
part of cattle food the best results will
follow, so if used as an alternate food
to horses, the effects will be conducive of
health. Parsnips too, may with equal
good effects be used for similar purpo-
SIS; so might all the varieties Of the beet
and Ruta.baga turnlps. Whenever Ell
Their may be used, they should be cut
up tolerabIy fine and incorporated with
cut hay or straw.
Time Of Sowing.-For general crop
of roots this side the Hudson and Poto.
mac, the first of May will be early
enough; but South Of the latter, the rule
should be to put them in so soon after
the absence of frost as time was allowed
for the earth to be warmed up and IN
condition to be well worked and of suf-
ticient temperature to excite germina-
ton in the seed.
Kinds Of Roots to be cultirmrd-For
Cattle Carrots, Parsnps, Rata Buga
furnips, Sugar Bects, and .MongeI
Wmrtse/, are probably as good as any,
and it would be we'll to put in portions
Of each, SO as to be able to diversity the
diet.
