Wheat MISUNDERSTANDING nd FatIeniug


| ICUGMUNICATED.
Wheat Raising ting nd FatIening
Cattle.
The present year is one of slim promise 10
tie Farmer. The wheat and oat crops are a
great failure. Beef cattle are at low e,
ure. These being the chief resources for mo.
ney, promise no profit. The time for rchec.
ton is at hand. Shall we to the usual ccteht
20 through the costly, yea, much dreaded,
preparation for another wheat crop, 10 view
Of the fact, .frmly fred, that We cannot COM
pete with the rich virgin soil Of the West
sensible as we are of the great hazard attend
ing the crops-and the recent facilities there
afforded for transport? Then, | think, We
should SOW less wheat but see that our pre-
psration is better than usual, tha. it is made
in good time, 50 that the land be well pulver-
lied, that the wheat may take a good start
in the fall, and see that the lanl is good
and well located for winter-to be sown not
later than the l0th of October.
Bu. my main purpose, at this time, is to
call attention to the subject of grazing and
fattening cattle. Fully one-half of the far
mers Of Eastern Virginia are doing losing
business in this respect, while, perhaps, very
few arc aware of it. Our prosender in win
Ter is fed too spariugly FIR the Improvement
of our lead, as ais) Ter the bcuefl OF the
cattle, because E!stcrn Virginia is over
stocked annoaly - hence our land Is also to-
closely grszed.
Now, If one-hali Of the farmers will buy
no cattle the coming fall, and secure all
the feed they can for the next season, aud
also give their best grazing land rest, and
use the cattle money for paying debts, they
will find themselves g'eatiy benefited. Is 1t
Dot certain that patent and Imported tertili-
zers, and " estern cattle, are making Us poorer
and poorer. No farmer can afford 10 keep
cattle 50 as to have them fat in tine, for one
dollar head Ier month, even il his grass
aud proyender be plentiful. But by the sys
tenn Of alternating and buying every other
year, we can make it profitable, for the fol-
lowing Teasons:-
lst We can secure feed for plentiful ieol
ing through the winter, giving our best fields
rest We can cut the grass from the rich
valleys and stack OF the poor places, to be
fed there plenuiuliy.
2nd. We can take our cattle up earlier IN
the Fall, and keep them off later IN the
Spriug-,bus our land will not be ever naked,
and at the mercy OF winter frost and sum-
mer heat.
Sd. BY this system cur land must improve,
and Western Virginia must latten more Of
the cattle /; is the iat.ening that weakens
the soil. The soil Of the West is growing
richer by the present. plan, while ours IL
or wing poorer; and the farmer who does not
improve his land is poor indeed, has poor
stock, and deserves poor name. II.
