We wish every farmer Would lay his plans
in season and take time by the foretop, for
improving in this branch of farm indus
try. If he lives near market it is the
most profitable; and wherever he may be,
there is refining influence in fruit culture,
which should not be overlooked. There
is solid comfort in it. There is an inno-
cent luxury. When the children are tar
away, and have built them other homes,
they will remember the old homestead
but no place in it, except the place by the
old tire-siie, where allowing mother used
to sit and mend their clothes and darn
their stockings and bear patiently with
their childish prallks, and teach the young
idea, will be remembered with more long
ings to return, than where their child
hoods lips smacked the fruit Of a favor
ite tree. Apples, early and late, for sum-
mer, autumn, winter, and spring, pears,
grapes, peaches, ounces, plums, cherries,
apricots, gooseberries, currants and straw
berries, should be the delight of every
farm, unless popularity of climate would
exclude some Of these, and many others
should be introduced if soil and climate

EDITORS SOUTHERN CULT1vAToR-Can
YOU or some kind subscriber propose,
through the columns of your journal, q
certain remedy for horses affected with
sand in their intestines We often lose
horses thus affected. Various remedies
have been recommended, but | cannot say
that a horse has, as yet, been saved by
them. After death have examined sew
eral, and generally found in them the sand
SO compact that it was difficult to crumble
it-in one instance after the death of a
horse (pony) saw cake of sand 10 by
l6 inches in diameter and almost as hard
as brick.
| have saved two horses by drenching
with salts and oil, but believe the sand i'll
them was not compact. The symptoms
that have observed are as follows: The
horse at first, few days, a loss of appetite
and dullness afterwards frequent attempts
to cvacuate, with little OF no success, be-
fore final change; he frequently and sud-
denly drops down on his bendcd legs aud
belly, sroans, rolls, and apparently re-
lieved if he can rcmainiying on his back,
then follows considerable swelling of he
legs and nostrils.
A horse thus affected is often considered
as being troubled with bots; but horses
seldom die here with bots.
Very respectfully,

Sc Soiling.S

This term is used to denote the prac-
tice of confning animals to stalls or yards,
during summer, and feeding them with
green food, cut daily, such as corn, millet,
oats, sugar cane, clover, lucerne, turhips,
ETC. This mode of feeding is extensively
practised in England, but though frequent
ly recommended, has not met with much
favor here. The advantages claimed are:
that food is thus consumed with less waste;
that there is great increase in the amount
of good manure saved; that the animals
are less exposed to the heat of the sun,
and to flies and other insects that lar
ger proportion of the food goes to the pro-
duction of fat, muscles and milk, when
the animal are kept quiet; that much less
fencing is required and, as the greatest
consideration, the same quantity of land
will furnish food for two or three times as
many animals, when the quicker growing
and larger plants, like corn. ETC., are raised,
instead of the common pasture grasses.
These considerations are sufficient to re-
commend a more general adoption of the
practice in some parts of the country-as
near the larger cities, where land is very
valuable. But under ordinary circum-
stances the additional cost of gathering
the food daily, would exceed the rental ct
additional pasture land enough to keep the
animals. The manure saved by soiling is
not clear gain, for this is distributed over
the land in grazing. The advantages OF
keeping animals quiet, are probably lost
in vigor, for the exercise taken in grazing
is hardly enough to waste much flesh, while
it must promote good health.
But every farmer should practice "soil-
ing" to limited degree at one season If
year, viz: in midsummer, when the usual
grasses are parched and dried. Under
the best circumstances there are always a
few weeks of comparatively poor pastur-
age in July or August, and just then eve
ry enterprisiug, thoughtful farmer will
have bountiful supply of some succulent
crop ready to cut and feed Out in daily
ratious, in the stable Or fields. Not only
will the better yield of milk, and the
greater vigor OF working animals amply
repay the cost at once but all kinds OF
stock thus provided for at the most trying
season, will 60 into fall pasturagc in good
condition, and be ready to lay in fat and
flesh against the winter.
In ''fy time' it will be found advan.
tageous 10 shut up cattle and horses in
dark stalls, during that part of the day
when insects are most troublesome. and
let cut, green food take the place Of pas
turage.
Corn or Chinese sugar care planted in
drills, and millet, etc., sown broadcast
are among the best crops for soiling. Il
planted or sown in small plots at intervals
of four to eight days, q longer succession
of green food will be secured.-Americai

Deep Plowing.-when to do it.

am practical advocate of deep plow-
ing, having been engaged for several years
past in deepening my farm, and having
found it more profitable to add to my
land in this way than buying more acres.
My deed runs down to the centre of the
earth, and mean to make the most of it,
and have found that this also gives me
another advantage, for the deeper get
my farm, the higher my grain grows, so |
gain in both directions, and by this means
| reckon Eve got at least thirty per cent.
more available space than formerly; at
any rate my seventy dollars per acre land
would now bring me ninety dollars-but
haven't got to the bottom nor top of it
vet, and mean to stick to it.
l have found by experiment that it is
best to run the plow deeper when raising
oats and winter grain, rather than when
breaking up for corn.
Corn is an sristocrstic plant, as you
might know by its tasseled head, silk
gloves, and long ears, and like such gen.
try it must have good nursing in the be.
ginning, and the best living the land will
afford. 1t sends its roots about, near the
surface where it can find plenty of food,
and where they can grow comfortably near
the warm surface. If you plow deep
enough to turn up the cold and hard sub
soil, the seed planted at the usual depth
will not germinate where they meet with a
cold reception, especially if the season be
wet. Scarce any crop seems to be more
benefited by an early start, or to be more
injured by slow, painful growth in the
commencement The young plants seem
to be discouraged, and not having force
enough to dig down to find . good living,
they are apt to grow up sickly.
In cultivating this crop, have therefore
practiced turning up all the soil, guaging
my plow to run just on the soil, and let
the corn have the full benefit of the ma
nure and clover which were plowed under.
The crop is followed with oats, which
stand wet and cold soil better. Then
drive the plow deeper, about an inch, as
YOU recommended in your last number.
The soil, mellowed by the previous hoed
crops, gi7es the oats good chance, and
they bear the sub-soil mixture on the top
quite we'll. The following crop with me
is rye, and seeded down with clover and
timothy, especially the former. Now |
give the guage another turn, and bring up
say another inch of sub.soilS and the rye
end the clover dig for their living--and
nine--most admirably.

sheep.KilIing Dogs--Tax Them.

ED!7oas SouSHERS CuLrrvAroR-It was
very true remark. Of that able States
man, Daniel Webster, that some things
had to be talked into existence" This re.
mark was made in relation to the Nation
al Monument.
But we think it itapplicable to many 9TH
er things, and permit us to talk little
through your able journal to the farmers
of Georgia.
Protection from the depredations of
shecp-killmg dogs is all the State of Geor-
gia lacks to make it prominent in the
Union in the production of wool. Nature
has done everything necessary for the de.
velopment Of this branch Of husbandry-
mild climate, all abundance Of hit cnun-
try--where the domestic grasses flourish
The greatest obstacle in the way of this
primitive and most pleasant occupation is
that worse than worthless creature--the
Dog.
The little State of Vermont produces
mere wool than the Empire State of
Georgia" from the fact that every man in
the State of Vermont that owns more than
one dog pays tax on them, which dog
tax is appropriated TO the paying for sheep
that are killed by dogs. -
The consequence is, every farmer can
afford to keep flock, knowing that if they
are killed he will get paid for them.
Now, let us raise such buzz about the
ears of the next Legislature lin the shape
of petitions) that they cannot refuse to
pass bill taxing every dog over one in
the family twenty-five cents, and more if
that is not sufficient to pay a fair price for
all the sheep killed by these canine ma
rauders. And in less than ten years We
will export wool as well rs cotton.
If q dog is not worth 25 cents a year,
he is not worth the keeping.
But, as superstition says it is bad luck
to kill dogs and cats, hundreds are allowed
ia roam the country over that would be
killed if the owner had to pay for their
poll. Yours, &c..
