FAMILY WINE DRfNKING-D Day, su-
perintendent of the New York State iuebri-
ate Asylu recently delivered an address be-
fore the inmates of the institution, in which
he stated that moderate. drinking families,
more than bar-room or GROCERY, are the
schools in which the fundamental principles
of intemperancc are taught. Among other
things he said
1t is my firm belief that no family accus-
toned to the daily use Of ardent spirits ever
failed to plant the seeds Of that fearful d.
sease, which sooner Or later produced har-
vest Of griefs. In every such family you may
find the scrollof the prophet which was writ
ten within and without with "mourning,
lamentation, and woe" Tt is here that the
tender digestive organs of children are per-
verified and predisposed to habits of intem
peranee. From long observation [ am con-
WINGED that one or more Of the members Of
wine drinking become sooner or later, drunk
ards. Drunkenness, in every instance, is the
simple failure Of an attempt to drink m1der-

PROFITS OF FREE COTTON.

To the Editors of the N,v York Evening Post:
AS you have heretofore taken great interest
in the change now taking place ia the method
of cultivating land in the Southern States,
enclose part OF letter from an enthusiastic
Southern man living near Selma, Alabama:
SIN reply to your inquiry, / will say that,
without manure and close work. our farming
interest this year would have been failure, as
it was last. At this time OF writing We have
over one hundred acres Of ground broken up
with double ploughs. and six Of these ploughs
are running daily, and will keep on until our
entire farm Of four hundred acres is broken up.
The great advantage of plougaing now is to
get all the grass turned under and the benefit
OF the frosts in January and February. Proba-
bly, not one farmer in ten is doing this.
s'There is no kind Of doubt about the su-
periorlty of cotton seed manure over every
other yet discovered. You can easily test 1t
by trying it on your northern soil. The pro-
bem of comparing the cost and yield OF cotton
with and without manure is solved by the sim
pie explanation that man may easily break
BY the latter and can never break by the
former mode.
"rhe best way to prepare cotton seed for
manure is to put it III o water-tight basin
made in the earth, and let rot In the weather;
it will heat so much and become so offensive
with ammonia, in short time, as to let its
strength be known extensively, and very
little OF the liquor from it will kill an animal If
given to it. After it is rotten it can be used
broadcast for grain, or in the bull for corn, or
in the drill or hill for cotton, and when mixed
with bone dust, gypsum, or any other manure,
it is very rich. We have no river muck or
manure on our plantation. We have fine
stables, and stall all our stock, keeping beds of
litter under them. and thus making lois of
manure; besides this we gather oil the bones
around US and send them to MILL getting
back almost half of it in bone dust
manure and decayed vegetable matter and gyp--
sum. and any farmer can get rich. We would
thank no one to guarantee US ten thousand dol
lars without worms and five thousand dollars
profit with worms. We have the best kind OF
means Of irrigation in this country, by reason
