Action and Reaction in Farming.

Never keep animals on short allowance

Although in draining land thoroughly your
purse may be drained, yet the fall crops that
follow, will soon fill it up again.

ing to run locomotive without fuel. Money
and wood must both be consumed, if they are
to move the machine of the farm or of the
rail.

Cabbage.

The cabbage has lately been chemically eX-
ahmed, III consequence of the failure of the
potato, with view to its substitution for that
root. 1t is found to be richer in muscle-form-
ing matter than any crop we grow. 1t con-
tains more ibrin or gluten, Of which substance
the muscles are made, and hence is richer in
the material essential to the health, growth and
strength of the animal. Wheat contains about
II per cent. of it, beans 25 per cent, and
dried cabbage contains from 80 to 40 per cent
of this all-important material, of which the
principal mass of the animal structure is
built.
An acre Of land will produce 40 tons Of
drum-head cabbage, which will yield I,500
lbs Of gluten one acre Of Swedish turnips
will produce about 80 tons, which will yield
400 lbs. Of gluten one acre Of IL tons Of po-
tatoes will yield $50 lbs. Of gluten. Here is
the variation in our general crops, as to the
amount Of this gluten, this special kind Of
nourishmcnt, this Misunderstanding principle
which accounts for the preference given by eX-
perienced farmers to the cabbage as food for
stock and mlch cows.
The cabbage flourishcs best in a moist, rich
SOIL such as reclaimed swamps it is more
hardy than the turnip in its insipient growth,
and at stage when whole fields of turnips are
liable TO be swept off by the fly, cabbage plants
| enough TO set an acre can be effectually pro-
tected under few panes of glass, or yard
or two of gauze in a frame in the garden.
1t is best for those farmers who plant cab
bages, to raise the plant from the seed careful
ly in their gardens, in beds like onions, and
then transplant the sprouts, when about six
inches high, to the field.
In the early stage of growth the cabbage re-
quires careful cultivation, most of which, how
ever, may be done with the plough and horse
hoe as soon as the leaves expand and shade
the ground, weeds are eflectually prevented
from growing enough to injure the crop or
propagate their own seed. This leaves the
field in as fine condition for the next crop as
could be desired.
Cabbage roots should have plenty Of room
to shoot away down. The ground for them
should be deeply spaded in garden, and deep
ploughed in field.
Any rich compost or well rotted manure is
good for cabbages, coarse or unfermented ma
nure is not good. Ashes, plaster of Paris,
bone dust, poudrette, and a little salt will be
| found beneficial; but above all if our farmers
could save the urine of the stable and apply
that, mixed with two-thrds Of rain-waier dur
ing shower, Just on the top Of the ground,
they would find the cabbages grow to very
! large size, and with firm heads This plan of
manufing has been long practiscd by the Dutch
English, and Scotch gardeners. -iSactitic

Canada Thistles.

Many plans have been recommended by
newspaper writer's and farmers for destroying
thistles, but it is questionable whether any Of
them will prove effectual. Moving them
when they are in full bloom will keep them
down and prevent them from growing, as long
as the land remains in grass but you P ow
piece of land in the spring, where the thlstles
have apparently been killed out for years, by
moving, and YOU will find the thistles up and
growing before any other crop you can put IN
to it. If the land is permitted to lie until the
roots of the thistles have nearly exhausted their
vigor, by sending forth q stalk and blossom,
and then pillow them under, it will do more to-
wards destroying them than any process with
in our knowledge. A small piece of land (not
more than half an acre) that had produced an
abundant crop Of thistles, for long succession
of years, was plowed when they were in full
bloom. The thistles soon sprung up again,
and were again put under the sod. Late IN
the fall few were to be seen, and the land
was again plowed The winter was a severe

in general suffered very much. In the spring
the ground was sown with oats, calculating
that they would be cut by the time the thistles
commenced poisoning, and both thistles and
oats would make good fodder. The oats grew
stoutly, and there was scarcely thistle on the
lot. We recommend this, says the Farmer
and Artizan, rs the best process within our
knowledge.
