MIR. George W. Gift makes the
following suggestions in the South
ern Farmer:
We would impress upon the
reader the necessity of getting this
important crop out as early as pos
sible. Last season, by the use OF
glass, we commenced to put out on
the 18th of April. At digging time
we carefully measured the yield
from each successive drawing. The
first brought something over three
hundred bushels to the acre, those
of two weeks later little over two
hundred and fifty bushels, and the
next under two hundred, and so
down to the usual "seed patch. 7"
There is great economy in bedding
out seed enough to make a suf-
fciency of slips to complete the
planting at the first good season
after the middle of April. We used
no manure for our sweet potatoes,
but SUBSIDIZED the ground both ways.
Made the beds three feet apart and
kept the ground clean, but never
broke the ridge. 1t is an excellent
crop, and when all our farmers shall
have provided warm-tight cellars
for storing and preserving them
through winter, it will get to be a
very important one.

Keeping Cows

The Bennington Banner gives
the following account of the man
ner in which Mr.. Josephus Lock
wood kept his four butter producing
cows:
Last spring / commenced feeding
them cabbages twice a day, and also
gave each of them two quarts OF
buckwheat bran, and fed them corn
fodder once day, until the 18th of
November, when they were stabbed
and fed once day on corn fodder,
once with hay and 'cabbages, and
once with buckwheat brsn, which
was increased to five quarts a day.
Their food was put in warm water,
morning and night They were kept
in the stable all the time, and had
no cold water to drink. My cab.
bages lasted until Jan. 2, and then
one quart of Indian meal was adj
ded to their feed.

FARM AND GARDEN.
Care of Harness.

1t has been aseertained that the
ammonia which is evolved from
stable manure has very injurious
effect upon leather, causing it to
crack and rot after being for some
time exposed to its effects. 1t is
therefore a bad practice to keep sad
dies or harness in the stable; they
should be kept in separate room
from which the fumes of stable
manure should be carefully exclu.
ded. This room should be provi-
ded With saddle and harness racks,
shelves for buckles and other stable
furniture.

STIRRING Soil Around frees

The opening or tightening the
the soil around the roots of trees,
either in the spring or fall, for the
purpose of letting in warmth, and
and affording a freer medium for the
expansion and development of the
roots, is Of great value in promot-
ing the health and vigor of the tree.
All trees, whether fruit or orna
mental, young or old, Indigenous
or exotic, are vastly benefited by
this process. In old orchards, the
soil about the trunks of the trees,
and to a considerable distance from
them, in every direction, should be
carefully broken, and the upper sur
face, to the depth of three or four
inches, removed in the spring, every
four or five years. The eggs Of the
curculio and other insects are de
posted in the stratum, and if not
removed or destroyed, will produce
insects, the ravages of which the
succeeding year will be productive
of far greater loss than the expense
of removing the soil and replacing
it with compost or loan. 1t is an
utterly hopeless undertaking to at
tempt the cultivation of good fruit,
when no measures are resOrted to
TO obviate the fatal ravages of this
detestable and insidious foe, and
the remedy now suggested is by no
means expensive, if we take into
consideration the advantages other
wise resulting to the tree from its
application.
Any good soil taken from thu
open fields or cultivated lands, may
be used as q substitute for compost
and a very small quantity will sui
fee. Even if no fresh matter il
applied, / would recommend the re
moval of the surface soil, anC
would replace it when convenient
Chip manure or old dung covered
with straw, answers well for thi
purpose Germantown Telegraph

Corn Culture.

A practical farmer of Herkimer
county, New York, communicates
to the Country Gentleman the fol-
lowing suggestions:
A great diversity of opinion eX-
lists with respect TO the distance be
tween the rows and in planting.
All have had success; hence each
advocates his system. But there is
little doubt, | think, as to the pro
priety of having sufficient space
between hills and rows for the free
access of the sun and air-the space
depending somewhat upou the size
of the corn. Our best experience
and observation has been with four
feet between the rows, or rather the
rows four feet apart, including the
hills. Then if three or four stalks
are to a hill, there should be nearly
or quite the same distance left be-
tween the hills. Otherwise, with
less stalks in a hill, there may be
closer planting of the hills-say
with two or three stalks, double the
number of hills in a row.
As 10 drilling, or a continuous
row of stalks, we have not had suf-
ficient experience to give an opinion
There are those who favor it; and
with the rows well apart, we see no
reason why there should not be a
good yield, and possibly better than
in any other case.
But we are convinced that a hill
with four or even five stalks will
GROW and fully develop its ears
even if the stalks are quite close to
oether. crowded. We have seer
this. and so repeatedly, that we mus
believe it. Now, whether a less
crowded condition, and less stalk
in the hill, would have yielded bet

ted eight hundred dollars between two
stones in the foundation Of his house on
Water street. After a lapse of few
days, needing some stamps" he repaired
