HINTS on Corn CULTURE. Gene
see Farmer has the following sensible re-
marks on the cultivation Of corn: I'VE
have spent considerable time and mon
ey in experimenting with tho various
fertilizers for Indian corn. We know
the importance of the subject. But we
are satisfied that for tho country at large
good ploughing, proper preparation of
the land, carly planting, and good and
thorough after culture, arc of far greater
importance. Throughout the vast corn
growing regions of America, if We can
remove stagnant water, prepare the land
properly, plant in good season, and use
the horse. hoe freely, the soil, in the ma-
iority of cases, is rich enough to produce
fair and renumerativc crops of corn
Still, unlike wheat and other cereals, it
is impossible to make land too rich for
corn and it should be borne in mind, that
it costs no more to plant and cultivate
crop of corn that will yield sixty BUSH
ell per acre than one that yields only thir-
ty bushels Of course. the most prof.
liable land for corn is that which is nat
urally rich-too rich for wheat but. in
the New England States, very profitable
crops are raised on poor soil by the aid
of heavy manureing, Levi Bartlett
says: ''Of thirty-6ve crops of Indian
corn offered for premium in Maasaachu-
setts, the average profit over all expen-
ses exceeded ISL per acre. It is the
opinion of many good farmers, that ma
nure is more probably applied to corn
than to any other crop. An excellent
farmer in this neighborhood thinks the
cheapest way to raise corn is on clover
sod. Ho let's the clover grow as long
as possible in the spring, and then turns
il under just before planting the corn.
The clover furnishes manure, and he
says the worms also feed on it and sell
dom injure the corn. A handful Of plas-
ter scattered on the hill before the first
hoeing is generally considered profitable

with great effect as top dressing. 1t
is a great stimulus to vegetation on ac-
count Of its power to produce carbonic
acid gas, and exerts favorable iuaunce
IN the ASSERTION and decomposition Of
matters excreted from the roots of plants,
thereby preserving the spougioles from
the detrimental effects of these purify

full effect in MIGRATING sickly plants. and
aids the roofing Of plants and shrubs
newly transplanted. Its value is not as
generally appreciated as it should be.

Points Of Cows.

4. L. Fish, a well-known dairyman
Of Herkimer county, N. Y, gives in
the. Little Falls Record, some good re-
marks on the points of cows. He very
properly consideres strength of constitu-
ton aud capacity to cat what is offered
her at all seasons of the year, as of the
first Importance. He rightly observes,
also, that the Indications of such con-
stitution are thick mellow skin, with
soft hair, bright. full eye, broad loin
and hips, deep body, and strai ght back
.sCheese dairy-men and city milk
men usually select cows that yield the
largest amount of milk, because they
depend more upon the quantity of cheese
than its quality, and milk is known to
mako good yield Of cheese that would
make but little batter. and poor at that.
But I am not in favor of the rule of Sc
lecting cows that yield the most milk
per days or season, in arriving at prop
er standard of excellence for the best.
The quality of milk COW will give, is
indicated by hair and skin, and yellow
color of the skin inside of tho ears and
other parts not thickly covered with hair.
J have never known COW, with soft,
fur-like hair and mellow skin, appearing
yellow and gummy at the roots of the
hair when parted with the hands, that
was not good butter COW and when fat
tened, would mix tallow well with flesh.
Having been accustomed to fatten my
cows that failed for dairy purposes, by
age Or otherwise, for many years, and
being on the lookout for causes Unknown
results II have observed that those known
to giye.g good milk, made most thrift in
,allow when fed to fatten. Hence, the
conclusion that COWS that handle well in
what the butchers call tallow joints, may
be Judged to give rich milk, the quanti-
ty to be judged by plainly marked de-
sign of nature in her physical structure:
Instead of heavy head, horns, neck and
shoulders, and comparatively light hind
quarters, which is characteristic of the
opposite sex, she should show an oppo-
site design, by fcmenine countenance,
light head, neck and shoulders, widen
ing backward from the chest to the loin,
and headquarters. where the most
strength is required.

RAISING GRASS SEED.-I wish to say
few words, through your columns, to
farmers, in regard to raising their own
grass seed, which I think they can do as
we'll as raise their seed oats, wheat, rye
or corn, as they almost invariably do.
1t is a fact, that nine farmers out of ten
save all the other field seeds that they
want to SOW or plant, and yet persist
in buying their own timothy and clover
seed, and pay the prices which they are
sold for at the seed stores. Now, this is
n very poor practice. as they are never
sure of getting good, pure seed. In fact
| think that many farm has had foul
seed scattered upon its surface, mixed
with purchased timothy and clover seed {;
thus leaving the farmer to wonder how
so many rank weeds and troublesome
grasses came to get 80 deeply rooted
upon his farm, which was once free from
everything of the kind.
In view of what have said above, |
will now proceed to give my way c.
saving grass seed. In June, while my
timothy grass is growing, select an acre
of the best and most promising, and then
90 carefully over it, and pull up all the
weeds, and take them off the ground. I
then leave it until it is quite ripe ; then
in the morning. while the dew is on, |
20 and NOW it down, letting it lie in the
swath until the next morning then |
rake it up, and draw it to tho barn, put
ting on light scalfold. where let it
remain until l get ready to thrash and
clean it up, which do as soon as cold
weather comes As regards clover seed
| proceed the same way as above stated,
with the exception of saving it from the
second crop, commonly called latter

The Cincinnati Gazette, a journal, having
wide circulation in Indiana and well posted
in political matters in that State says its ad-
vices continue to be Of the most cheering
character. 1t adds that "there is scarcely a
doubt of the election of Lane, the Republican
candidate for Governor, by several Thousand
majority, next Tuesday, and Of the Republic
can electoral ticket in November, by an in
creased plurality. We also hope for a gain
of two or three Republican members of Con-
gress. The Legislature, which will elect a
successor to the Hon. Graham n. Fitch, can
hardly tail to be Republican by good work
ing majority. The visit OF Douglas and
Johnson, the mutually contradictory candi-
dates on the same ticket, has done nothing to
change the popular current in Indiana, which
has, for weeks past, been setting strongly TO-
wards the Republican side. We believe the
State may be confidently set down as sAPE.

s.LI Laler and Importanl lrom IlsI,


The events in Italy crowd rapidly on each
other. The North America briags confirma-
ton of the reported defeat of Gen. Lamori-
ciere, and the capitulation Of the greatest por-
ton OF the Ponti6cal army. The battle
lasted six hours, and Lamoriciere escaped to
Ancons. The attacking forces were led by
Gen. Cialdina, and the Papal troops be-
seiged in AncOna viii probably soon be-
come his prisoners. The result Of the re-
cent battle is to transfer to the King Of Sar-
DINA the whole Roman Territory except
Rome, Viturbo, and Civita Vecchia.
The Pope appears to BE- preparing to fol-
low Francis H. in his fight The Sacred
College were eEerting their influence to in
duce him to seek an asylum in Spain or
Austria. Considerable unsasinsss was felt in
Paris at the prospect of a collision between
Garibaldis legions and the French troops at
Rome. The hope was that the Pope would
leave Rome. On his doing so the French
troops will follow his example, and the Sar-
dinians would enter and possess the Holy
City as promptly and free from bIOOdshed as
they did Naples Garibaldi is becoming
more and more the marvel OF the age. The
hour in Italy is big with important events.
STILL LATER.-The Canada brings news
that the Papal army wa. virtually disbanded,
and that AncOna was beseiged and blOckaded.
Garibaldi was preparing to march against
Capua, and he had again said that he would
only proclaim the Kingdom of Italy from
Rome
