Ploughing Id Raw Soil.

We sometimes hear farmers remark, that
ploughing deep, they get less grain; that
bringing up the new yellow soil, their crops
suffer. 1t would be strange if this were not
the case; for this soil, even if mellow, is
raw. just ike manure when it is green"
or Long" 1t is not yet converted or chan
ged into plant food. 1t needs just what the
long manure needs-to be changed by the
heat aud the air-that is, decomposed or
rotten.
When the top soil is less fertile than it
used to be when the land was first TILED YOU
may rest assured that this under is always
better than the upper soil, because the up
per has deitorated while the under has not,
but rather improved.
1t is, therefore, unadvisable, nay, suld-
cal In some soils, to turn up deeply the un-
derg ound in the spring or in the fall at SOW
ing time. The cold, cherries ground Will
not help the grain, and were it not for the
other soil mixed with it, an almost total fail
ure would be the result
But torn it up in the fall, and let the frost
and the elements take hold of it. and YOU
will have another soil; it is turned into
manure, good part of it. 4 little lime
mixed with it, scattered. and narrowed in,
or manure, or both. would facilitate the pro-
cess. In the srring SOW, either with or
without another ploughing, and you will
find no more occasion to complain. We have
great fertility to draw upon from below, bu,
itrequires managing. .-Ecening Post.

for the farmer.
he Eoonomv of Extra Labor on Farms.

The Economy of Extra Labor on Farms.
We have on several occasions directed our
readers attention to the great evil of Amer
lean agriculture-too much land with too
little labor. There is no greater mistake
than that it does not pay to hire yet We
hear this remark continually by really sensi-
bic farmers. 1t does not pay so well where
farmers have to board their hands. 1t is
too much for the women, with the modern
difficulty of getting female help. Bat far
mers must be satisfied that it will first pay
to have the men-then, that it will pay to
build houses for them to live In.
We are pleased to see our agricultural CO.
temporaries touch on this vital question
In the December number Of that excellent
paper, the american Agricuttrrist, there is
a very sensible editorial on the subject In
the course of its argument it says:
"A thriving farmer, to whom we put the
question-What kind Of expenditure pays
best in your operations? ? answered: Labor
lie had then in the field six men, and kept
them constantly at work for nine months in
the year. He had but sixty acres of land,
yet the gross products were about fifteen
thousand dollars year A single item in
In this year 5 crop was six thousand bushels
OF seed potatoes. His rough farm was rap
idly rounding into form under his plastic
touch. Old stone walls had been removed,
and the small fields opened into large ones
Rocks had been blasted and sunk, and the
rough places made smooth The wet pla-
ces had been made dry hy deep drains. He
subsOiIed, and guarded every crop against
drought. He kept at work upon improve
Inents, and male the crops pay for them
He said he regretted nothing so much as
that he had not employed more help. This
clear headed farmer is unguestionably right
Nothing pays SO well as labor, even at the
present high prices. Almost all farm pro-
ducts have advanced more than labor in the
last eight years.
Our own experience confirms this We
added to cur property last spring a contigu-
Gus tract OF about thirty-fiye acres of rather
poor land, for which we had to buy about
SIX hundred dollars worth of manure. For
this additional land we have employed reg
ularly three extra hands Whenever it has
been too wet to work at other matters the
hands have been set to work to clearing
bitches, digging sod from the swamp, or
gathering old vegetable matter anywhere;
and with some manure from the 5arnyard.
lime and salt, mixing the whole together.
We keep a simple farm account against all
the principal farm crops and occupations,
and find this heap of compost has cost us
about three hundred dollars The immense
heap is certainly worth much more than
double this sum. We thus make profit
OF one hundred per cent, on the men by this
manure matter alone, besides having the
men on hand in strong force to put through"
a job just at the very moment whenit ought
to be done. The profit on this alone is of
ten SO great, that it will almost pay TO have
the men at hand to do nothing; so that the
six hundred dollars OF manure is nearly clear
gain. Press.
