} SAVING FODDER.

Before the issue of our next, this portion
of the barvest-maYy have arrived with some,
1t is a question of portance, and one often
settled to the injury Of the corn, to know
when the fodder is ripe, or rather, when the
corn will bear the stripping of the blades.
This shouldneyer.b be done until the milk has
appeared, and the shrinking Of the grain
hasswell commenced. The exposure of the
stalk and the ear is very sudden, andsveryy
great, and ify the grain is not well prepared
3tteZ value of1the whole fodder crop. The
blades when pulled may be spread to dry in
the middle of the rows, or be hung in small
punches upon the stalk. When dry these
are to besmade into larger bundles and
stacked immediately This is done late in
the evening or in the morning, before the
dew has dried off: In an emergency, fodder
may be stacked when partially cured, and
rs soon as it becomes hot in the stack, pull.
ed down again, slightly aired, and then re.
stacked. This is greatly preferable to hav-
ing it wet by rain, as it is much more ac-
eeptable as an article of food. When well
cured, the double or treble stack is better
than the single, as. SO much less surface is
exposed to the weather. 1t would be better
and we suppose generally good economy, to
provide houses for allsuch crops. But ne.
cessity has rot yet forced upon US the i'm
portance of much care, in this department.

HAY.

We have given our advice about saving
fodder, because it has been the long estab.
5 lished reliance of the Southern planter for
: this kind. OF food, and because we are NOT
ready for its total abandonment. Yet all
are prepared to admit that it is hard, adisa
greeable work. badly laid out. We have
been limiting very strongly Tor change, asid
and as we think it practicable and desirable
that it should be made: we, in good time,
urge upon our readers Ito try and see what
may: be done this summer, in hay:making.
Ours is put down as, no grass country: all
this has been assigned to higher laitudes,
and it is true, that the hay which we buy is
made from grasses which seem to flourish
best in them but we have our peculiar
grasses, a generous Providence has not with
held from usher gifts, in this regard. Our
error, we think, has been in discarding and
refusing those gifts, and failing properly to
appreciate them.
its not longer question of doubt or de.
bate, as to what may be done with the crab.
grass, crowfoot and peavine. These are all
peculiarly aud confidently ours. We get
from our corn two hundred and fifty or three
hundred pounds Of fodder to the acr', when
we often have upon our stubble lands, with
out the trouble Of sowing or culture, many
acres of luxuriant grass which would yield
FIVE or ten times as much in hay. This we
leave to bleach and dry as thing ofno ac-
count.
As we have remarked, necessity has not
been laid upon US; hence we have been con-
tent Yet if there is a better way let it
Z Is ; adapted. Lany Eof the jittle experiments
which have been made, have failed, because
improperly: conducted-the grass has been
left tooylong. It should be cut when in.
bloom, exposed to the sun until about half
cured, thenthrown into small heaps or ricks,,
and allowed to cure in that way-after which
It is. 10 be stacked or carried to the barn.
The common error has been to wait until
the grass was in seed, and when cut, to al,
low it to be exposed to the sun until twas
fully dry, thus allowing much of its nutri.
.tious juices to escape before cutting, and the,
balance to be ,lostin drying. The crowfoot
grass might besraised to great advantage by
saving the seed, to be sowed upon rich well
prepared lots. We shall at another time,
say something about the practicability of
raising the red clover this far South. and
many of our readers, we doubt not, will be
surprised at the abundant testimony which
may be produced in its favor But our pre-.
sent purpose is to urge the use Of the means
which we already have, without wasting our
time in regrets, or unrequited efforts, to in.
troduce the products which belong by nature
10 Others These efforts are laudable and
patriotic, but while we are waiting for their
consummation, there is no need that we re.
fuse the gifts already bestowed.

would answer the purpose, and leave no ugly
scar to mar the beauty OF the farm. But we
do not now propose treatise on this sub
iect, but 10 suggest this, as one OF the etlf,
plovments which might properly and prohta-,
bly, engage the attention of planters III the
leisure soon to ensue, when the crop is made.
Some places covered with water in the win
ter and spring are now dry, aud a few strong
men constantly employed with good spades
and shovels, will soon accomplish large
amount of ditching.
MIscELLANEoUs.
When the season for field work shall have
Stacked of, there are many little jobs to
claim attention. Put your roads all in good
order. clean the fence corners, inside and
out-this!adds to the neat appearance ofthe
farm, and preserves the fence from rotllng
look to little repairs about the,houses, espe-
cially The cribs, barns and gin-houses, clean
up the yards, removing all decaying. vegeta-
bic matter, or filth, which might generats
fever, and whitewash all the negro houses
inside and out with lime. Much more will
be saved in the health of negroes, than all
these little precautionarymeasures will cost
A good plantation barbecue about this time
puts bright face upon the closing scene, and
its benefits WILDE seen in renewing obliga'
.tions to cheerful obedience. Fear is;a servile
passion; some, suppose the negro knows ne

early marriages are not the dodge. Better
enjoy youth at home, and hold lovers at

can wait two or three years, make presents,
take you to concerts, and so on, until the

BENEvOLENcE AND HAPPINESS.

A lile oil passionate qualification is not to
be compared with life of active bcnevo-
lence. God has so constituted our nature,
that man cannot be happy unless he is, or
thinks he is, a means OF doing good. Judging
from our own experience, we cannot con,
ceive OF a picture Of more uuutterable
wrctchedness than is furnished by one who
knows that he is wholly useless in the
world. Give man what you please, sur.
round him with all the means of gratifca.
ton, and yet let the conviction come home
to him. clear aud irresistible, that there is
not a being in Gods universe a whit the
better or happier for his existence; let him
feel that he is thus blot upon, because a
blank in, the universe, and the universe will
not furnish more unhappy being.-Herein
lies the solution of that to many, inexplica-
bic fact, that the schemes of mere seI6shness,
however wisely. laid. however energeiically
aud successf9a1y prosec clted, never add TO
the joys, but always to the pains of those
who originate and engage in-them. 1t is not
SO with "a man OF opposite characteristics.
Take from him what you please, and you do
not take from him the elements of his Joy. if
You leave him, the conviction that in any
way hei useful. If you contract the circle,
and diminish the sphere Of his influence, you
detract trom5his joy only as you detract from
his means of doing good. Aud as we can
not conceive of a more wretched being than
one who feels himself to be the slave Of an
uncontrolled selfshness, SO we cannot con.
ceive OF a56appier being than a man Of tru-
.ly benevolent heart, whose wishes describe
the circle and bound the sphere of his in
fluence, and whose means are ample to give
those wishes full expresson.-Mason.
