Agricultural Meetings,

These gatherings of our farmers are on the
increase. and the people are becoming more
and more interested in the cultivation of the
earth. We have often thought it strange
that the farmers in this vicinity do not get
together occasionally, and discuss the uues-
tions in which they have so deep an interest
Much could be learned from an interchange
OF opinions upon the subject of farming.
Our city would be good place for such gath
erings during the winter months when our
cultivators could impart to each other the i'm
formation experience has taught them.
Books and agricultural journals are well
enough in their places and much valuable in
formation may be derived from them, but
experience is one OF the best school-masters
in this department of human industry. AL
though farming and gardening are very ancient
employments and the inhabitants OF our
world ale, and always will be, dependent on
them for the principal part of food that sus-
tains life, yet the half has not been told, and
much has yet to be learned. As generations
PASS away, mother earth becomes exhausted
and needs strengthening, and how best to do
1t has become question of great and para
mount importance.
We have been led to the above reflections
by reading an account OF a recent "Farmers'
Gathering" in Manchester, N. II. The con-
vention was very fully attended and much
talent, intelligence and energy of the rural
profession were represented in it as we learn
from the mirror and Farmer" The Presi-
dent of the Convention on taking the chair
very properly said that tsrming is the only in
dustrial pursuit that cannot be overdone.
The merchant may overtrade, the mechanic
may gut The market, the professional man
fail of employment and proper compensation,
but the farmer cannot too highly cultivate
the earth, nor does she fail to reward his la
bor. Although the Granite State, according
to the census of 1860 is the twenty-sesenth
in size, yet in annual production she stands
the eleventh.
Mr.. " alker read a very interesting essay
on the culture of Indian corn. The question
has long been disputed whether the plant
Zea Nays popularity known as Maizs, Is indi.
genous to this hemisphere or to the other,
whether its origin was in the old world or
the new. But that is only interesting as a
matter OF history, and the weight of testimo-
ny seems to indicate that Europe and Asa
received the plant from America. 1t has
been found growing wild in all parts OF our
continent adapted to its production from Or
egon to Paraguay. No doubt it had been cul-
tivated for many centuries by the natives be-
fore the white man reached our shores. Mr..
Walker says: "its cultivation was generally

But we must cut short in writing Of corn.
At this convention in Manchester many 9TH
er subjects were discussed which might be
discussed In our city, If our farmers were dis
posed. Rev. DR.. Smith, President OF the Col
lege of Agriculture was introduced who said:
GAS the farmer advanced, so the character OF
State rose, and every effort to selt-improve-
ment was a step to elevate the whole COM
monwealth." He urged the organization and
support of farmers clubs and the support Of
the press. The subject of horses was intro
duced and discussed and that brought Col.
Lang, OF our State, to his feet who knows all
about horses, how to breed them and how to
take care of them, as well as any man in our
country. His remarks were listened to with
undivided attention. His address filed sew
eral columns of the Mirror and Farmer.
Mr.. 5. L. Goodale of Maine gave lecture
on manufactured petitions, which was full of
instruction and well received.
Mr.. Hill Of Massachu- etts gave a very in-
terestins address on the cultivation OF fish.
He believes that every farmer OF New Eng
land with the means at hand may hope to see
our rivers swarming with shad and salmon,
and he might have aided the speckled trout
10 the list and also the black bass. Now this
artificial culture OF fish is by no means
thing of modern invention. We think we
know every thing and that the people of the
great Past were ignorant, but the Chinese,
and a:tarward the Romans, centuries ago, un-
derstood the art Of fish culture, and practiced
it with great success. We are only following
in their tracks. Mr.. Hill has visited Europe
and made it special point to examine the
manufactures there, and especially the great
fisb-hatchery established at Harrinque which
contains about seventy acres, one bend Of
which is moDopolised by the various water
courses and basins for rearing the different
varieties OF fish: Our own State is full of To-
calities which may be easily converted into
fish ponds. Mr. Hill contends that an acre of
water may be made more profitable than an
acre Of land. This farmers gathering in the
Granite State win produce great results and
we hope they win be followed up In our own
State. AeRIcoLA.
