snvy-iust as Litter.

The above material has been successfully in
troduced as litter for horses in Ohio, instead of
straw, and may be proftably employed for this
purpose when the latter article is dear. The
:" Ohio Cultlvat0r" contains the following re-
marks upon the subject: 9 Several bushels of
dry saw-dust are thrown into the stall, upon
which the horse stands during the night. In
the morning it will be found that about a
busllel has been r~emovcd-one hall of which is
manure and one half saw-dust, so well saturated
rs to contain q large portion of ammonia. per-
forming the double office Of absorbent and
purifier; thus the air OF the stable is kept pure,
and the ammonia saved for the compost heap.
This c npost Mr.. Blake has applied to his
stiff clay land, and reports that it operates like
yeast, making the ground very light and mel
low. In the morning that portion of the bed
ding which remains dry is showed up under the
manager, to serve for another night.
Another advantage for this material for bed
ding is that q horse which lies upon it is much
easier cleaned off than one which lies on straw ;
the saw-dust entering among the hair brings
away the serections, when the currycomb and
brush are applied, leaving a bright lively coat.
In warm weather it has another great advan-
tage, that of being much cooler than straw, so
that a tired and heated horse can sleep pleas.

parts of the country renders the material easy

we doubt not when its virtues are better known,

What Railroads do for Farms.

The following paragraph from the Athens
(Tenn.) Post, shows what railways do for
farmers. The farmers of the three counties
named derive q clear profit this year alone, on
the single article Of wheat, Of more than
$4,000 from the railway. Their 100000
bushels of wheat sell for 100000 more than it
would have realized if there had been nc rail
way to take it off:
WHEAr.-The price continues at 81. One
hundred and nineteen wagons unloaded ct the
depot here on Thursday, the 9th. This county
will export, Of the late yield of the harvest, one
hundred and sixty thousand bushels. Other
counties along the line Of the railroads will
perhaps do as well. The three counties Of
Bradley, McMinn and Monroe, from the in
formation now in our possession, we have no
doubt will sell for export over 100000 bushels,
ut an average of one dollar per bushel. Here,
then, is the snug sum Of between four and five
hundred thousand dollars ditfused among the
people Of these counties, for the single article
of wheat alone, the product of a single harvest.
How much wheat did these same counties ey-
port before the railroad was built, and at what
price? Not more than $4,000 bushels, and
that small amount was sold at an average of
fifty cents per bushel. In the meanwhile lands
have q%uadrupled in value, aud the owners have
actually become rich by the enhancement, al
most without an effort Of their own.
The foregoing remarks have the same appli
cation to Louisiana that they have to Tennes-
see; and, although none of our railroads have
been completed, equally wonderful effects have
been produced. Lands that would not have
brought q dime per acre three years ago, can
not now be obtained at less than five, ten and
fifteen dollars per acre. Large tracts have been
brought under cultivation, and larger tracts
are being brought under cultivation, the pro-
duce of which will find Il ready and u remu-
nerative market. Smiling villages have leaped
into life by magic, as it were, and population,
progress and prosperity now reign, where, not
long since, almost primeval solitude prevailed.
All this has been effected by our partially
completed railroads. And if such glorious re-
suits follow uncompleted undertakings, what
may we not anticipate on the completion Of the
whole grand system?' [Crescent.

The following has been found, after several
years experience, to constitute one Of the best
manures for fruit trees generally: A mixture
of peat or swamp muck, with onc-half to one
quarter of its bulk of stable manure, and about
one twelfth Of leached ashes. These ingredients
should lie in a heap together for a few weeks,
and then be worked over. If for peach trees,
the %soap-s1ds from the laundry thrown over
the heap will improve it. IF for cherry trees,
which will not bear high manuring, the pro-
portion of peat or muck should be larger, and
with less Of yard manure and ashes,

Singular Geological Fact.

AT Modcna, in Italy, within q circle Of four
miles around the city, whenever the earth is dug
and the workmen arrive at the distance of six
ty-feet, they come to a bed Of chalk, which they
bore with an anger, five feet deep. lhey tae'
withdraw from the pit before the anger IS re.
moved, and upon its extraction the WAFER
bursts up with great violence, and quickly nus
the we'll thus made, the supply Of water beng
neither affected by rains nor drouths. At the
depth Of fourteen feet are found the ruins OF an
ancient city-houses, paved streets and ma,
son work. Below this again is a layer OF
earth, and at twenty-six feet walnut trees are
found entire, with leaves and walnuts upon
them. At twenty-eight feet soft chalk is found
and below this vegetables and trees.
