From the Southern Cultiyator.
Salt and Ashes as q Manure.

Statement of facts with regard to appli-
cation of salt to land as a manure.
In 1852, I purchased rs bushels dirty
salt which fell from bacon which was stored
in Atlanta, at cost of Is cents bushel.
1t cost in Athens 25 cents per bushel.
mixed it with all the old leaohed ashes that
could be collected on the lot-the ordinary
quantity which accumulates during the year
on town lot. This | spread broadcast
over eight acres of thin, coarse, sandy soil, /,
badly worn BY continued cultivation, but
which had in previous years manure applied
in the hill.
My recollection is, that ashes, salt and all
made about 8 bushels per acre. This piece
(of s acres,) 1 planted in corn, 4 feet each
way, one stalk in the bill. During its growth,
it was frequently noticed by persons who
knew nothing of what was done to the land,
on account of the deep green color of the
corn. Many questions we're asked about it.
The seasons l think were good. | gather.
eu lTOu Iuese elSuG dCiSS hiteoh ioi 80 WV
horse wagon loads of corn in the shuck-
equal, l supposed, to about 30 bushels per
acre.
Again, ir 1858 or 4, planted another
piece of land, on the opposite side of the
road, somewhat thinner than the eight acres
described above. This land was laid off 5
feet apart In those rows I drilledthe same
mixture of old leached ashes and salt, at a.
bout the same rate per acre. The green
appearance of the corn while growing, and
the great height to which the stalks grew,
was still more remarkable, aud attracted
more notice and more frequent remarks |
did not pay any particular attention to the
gathering of this crop, and cannot say how
much it made per acre. But of one thing
there can be no doubt, the product was
vastly increased by the application. x.

farmer's Reabmg.
Hints to Farmers.

What Hoes to Use-In planting or hoe
ing corn, use the ordinary hoes in general
use. Neither Indian Rubber hose no. cot
ton hose would be of any account in corn
field; no more than would one of Hoes
eight-cylinder presses.
Hou to Hold the Ploao.-Don't try to
hold it out at arms length. You can't do
it.
If you havn'ta plow Of your own, get out
an attachment on your neighbor's, who owes
you. Any yjustice will tell you whether you
can hold it or not.
The Best Time to Put in Rye-I ask
ed an old farmer once what was the best
time to put in rye? He looked at his watch
and replied:
"This is about my hour"
The rye was Immediately put in.
All seasons are the same for putting in
rye.
Hou to Keep Corn The best place to
keep corn is in good corn house, though
some prefer to keep it in the system-in the
juice. If they don't keep corn they keep
corned.
Fences and Fencing.-Good fencing is
essential on farm. Get good "feucing
master" to learn you. You can't repair a
worm fence by vermifuge. Neither can
you cut good whitewash brushes out OF
brush fences.
To Make Your Stables Warm in Win.
ter.-Set fire to them.
To Drain Lands Drink whiskey, and
spend all your time at the village tavern.
This will drain you of all your lands in
short time.
To Make Stone Fence.-Equal parts of
whiskey aud cider This is the reciprocal
stone fence the more you lay of it the more
it will "lay" you.
Easy Way to Drao Sac Logs,-Draw
them on piece of paper with crayon pen
Gil. After little practice you will be able
to "draw" the largest kind of saw logs with
ease.
Pork.-Packing thread is of no use in
packing pork. In curing hams the time
varies. Hams that have got trichina cant
be cured at all.

The JOYS Of a Religious Life.

A life of sound religious principle has its
joys. 1t is not that cold, dreary inanimate
tract of country which it is so often de.
scribed to be. Let the picture be drawn
with caudor aud impartiality, and, amidst
few feeting clouds, there will be much
sunshine to gild the scenery. The evening
more particularly of a religious life must
ever be painted in glowing colors. And if
the life of a real Christian should be ana,
lyzed, it would be found to contain more
particles of satisfaction than the life of any
other man. But make, l entreat you, the
experiment for yourselves; and you will
fud that the "ways of religion arc always
of pleasantness, and all her paths are paths
of peace" And if they be so in this world,
what joys will they not lead you to iu the
world to come There every cloud will be
dispelled, every mist dispersed; the vail
will be drawn aside; we shall no longer see
through glass darkly, but shall see God
face to face. We shall rest from our la
bors all tears shall be wiped from our fa-
ces; and nothing will be heard but thanks.
giving and the voice of melody. Then we
shall look back upon the many trials, temp,
tations and vicissitudes of this life, as the
Israelites, when arrived in the earthly Ca
naan, looked back upon the bondage of E.
gypt, the terrors of the wilderness, and the
passage of the Red Sea. We shall CON-
mune together of those things which have
happened "Dd not our hearts burn with

of our salvation, talked with US by the way,
and opened to US the scriptures 2" Did
we not anticipate that which we uow actu.
