THE UNION AND AMERICAN.
OUT THE COLD.

With blue hands and stockingless feet,
wandered child in the cherries street;
Snlioren were many who, housed and fed
Lovingly nestled, dreaming in bed
Caroled their joys in land Of bliss,
Nithoui thought OF care Of this
They were warm in humanity's fold
But tbs little child was out in the cold
Out in the cold.
Bleak blew the wind thro' the cheerless street.
Dashing along the merciless elect,
All furred and shawled, man, woman and child
Hurried along, for the storm grew Wild;
They could not bear the ieicle's blast
Winter SO ride on their pathway cast
Alas.none pitied-no one consoled
4he little Wanderer out in the cold
Out in the cold. D
She had no father, she had no mother.
Sisters none and never a brother:
They had passed on to the star worlds above
She remained here with nothing TO love.
Nothing 20 loye'-0, men did not know
What wealth Of JOY that child could best0w
80 they went by and worshipped their gold
Leaving the little one out in the oOld--
Out in the cold.
Wandered she on till the shades Of night
Yelled her shivering form from's sight;
Then, with cold hands over her breast,
She prayed to her Father In Heaven for rest.
When hours had fed, meath the worlds dark frown,
Hungered and chilled, she laid herself down;
Laid down to rest, while the wealthy rolled
In carriages past her, out in the cold
Out in the cold.
Out in the cold-iol an angel form
Brought her white robes that were rich and warm
Out in the cold, on the sleeping child,
The sainted face Of mother smiled;
A sister pressed on her brow kiss
Led her mid scenes Of heavenly bliss;
And angels gathered into their fold
That night the little one out Of the cold
Out Of the cold.

The Root Crop-Tmportant Facts.

The Root CrOP-TmPOrtant Facts.
The root crop has scarcely risen yet
to the importance of a staple product in
this country. Our agricultural societies
recommend and foster the cultivation Of
roots; our agricultural writers show the
superior quality of roots as food for stock;
our leading practical agricultunsts Eindi-
cate the proftableness of root raising, by
practical and tangible results; and still the
great body of our farmers persist in their
prejudice against the crop, or at least
indifference to it.
This prejudice and indifference must
sooner or later give way 10 more rational
views. 1t is well known that the health
of animals demands mixed food. Hay
is indeed for stock, what bread is for man,
the staff of life; but as man cannot be
confined to bread and water diet without
injury to his system, neither can domestic
animals be restricted to hay ard water
without similar injury. Succulent food
is necessary, not only to furnish nourish-
ment but to keep the system in relaxed,
and at the same time, a vigorous condi-
ton. For accomplishing this end the
root crop affords the cheapest and best
means. This is plainly seen by compar-
ing this with other crops. An acre of
ground that will yield 40 bushels of oats
will yield 1900 bushels of mangold wurz-
els. One that will yield 80 bushels of
barley will yield 1000 bushels of turnips;
and 500 bushels of carrots win grow on
an acre that will produce 20 bushels of
rye. Surely one bushel of oats, of barley
or of rye is not worth as much to feed as
80 bushels of mangolds, or of turnips, or
of carrots.
We shall not enter into an analysis of
roots here, for purpose of establishing
their value as an article of food nor shall
we now consider the objections frequently
urged against their cultivation. These
will be taken up at another time, and we
content ourselves at present with brief
statement of the importance of the root
crop in other countries.
In England, 5000, 900 of acres are de-
voted TO the cultivation of turnips, TO say
nothing of other roots, and the crop is
estimated to be worth 5000, 600, 600. By
means of this crop, England has more
than doubled her capacity for sustaining
stock As roots have increased in guam
tity and estimation, hay and grain have
also increased, until, at the present time,
the average yield of wheat to the acre in
England is more than triple that in our
own and the New England States. Fur
ther than this, England can show the best
herds to be found anywhere in the world.
Belgium has made roots a staple product
for even a longer time than has England,
and there are found the largest herds, and
the most population to the square mile of
any country in Europe. A Belgium
farmer devotcs every fifth acre 10 the
cultivation of roots, and thus makes
farm of forty acres keep a herd of twenty
COWS. The same processes will insure to
our farmers the same profitable results.

tiyalion of broom corn:
l. Ii is important that the ground
should be good. 1t ought TO be as fresh
as you would want for Indian corn. 1t
should be well broken, and, if narrowed,
is all the better for it.
2. Plant the seed in the spring, mot
too carly when the ground is warm and
in good condition.
8. Rows should be three and half feet
apart, and the seed should be drilled.
One stalk of corn should be left, if too
thick in The row, six inches apart.
4. Cultivate well-all depends upon
good cultivation. / always cultivate in
the same manner as Indian corn, and
never permit any weeds to grow.
3. Cut when the seed on the stalk are
in the milk. One hand should go ahead
and ''table, - to be followed by the cutters.
One hand will table for four or five cut
tiers.
G. ''Tabling" consists in bending the
stalks of two rows diagonally across each
other, about two feet from the ground.
The brush projects beyond the row, and
is then cut and laid on the table thus
formed, TO dry. The third row is then
cut and laid on the same table; by this
means the "wagOn row. is cut-that is,
the wagon row TO every six rows. will
explain: a, b, c, d, c, f, represent six
rows; a and b, e and f, are table rows; C
is cut and placed upon the table of a and
b; d is cut and placed upon the table
rows of and f. 1t is easy to SCI that c
and d are rows, with table on each side
convenient for loading into the wagon.
Z. Cittting.-f the brush is large, six
| inches of stalk should be left to it but
| the small brush much more-say eight to
twelve inches. Knives should be pro.
cured with good handles, and kept sharp.
g. Threshing the seed off is the next
thing. A cylinder of wood, twelve inches
long and ten inches in diameter must be
provided. II should be of solid wood.
| Into this iron or steel spikes should bC
driven, two inches apart, with three left
outside the cylinder. This is propelled
by horse power; but, for very large crop:
/ recommend steam power. Machines ar,
now manufactured, greatly improved, TO
this very purpose.
8. Curing.-Sheds must be provided
for this purpose, so that the corn can b.
perfectly protected from the sun and rain
put my corn in racks eight inches apart
leaving abundance of space for free ven
tilation.
10. The yield is four hundred to on
thousand pounds to the acre, The latte
figure being very large yield.
II. Bailing is done in hay press. Tn
brush should be laid straight, with care
and the bale may be fastened by wiz
hoop poles.
II. The cost of cultivation is jus
equal TO that of Indian corn, until it
ready to cut. The cutting, hauling an
thrashing require eight men per day fC
each acre of corn, besides two teams an
one wagon. This includes putting it O
the rack for curing. The cost of balm
is Just double that of bailing hay.
Is. We would advise those going int
the business of broom corn raising fl
profit, to begin with five or ten acres uni
they acquire some experience.
The seed cost about three dollars p
bushel; it may be obtained for less
some places. One bushel, properly p'
( in, will plant twelve acres, and the usu
; yield of seed per acre is flfty-five or six
bushels.

Keeping Sausagcs and Smoked Meat
Mr.. J. b. Miller gives the following in
the Cincinnati Gazette:
''My plan for keeping sausages is to
stuff them; then hang them on pole in
the smoke house, and smoke them about
two days, and they will keep good long
time. Let them stay in the smoke house;
and take away as they are wanted for
use.
''My method for curing meat is this
l cut up my meat the same day the ami
mails are killed, and lay the meat on a
plank in the smoke house, and leave it TO
cool until next morning. Then | salt it,
putting on about One-half as much salt as
| think twill take l now leave it six or
eight days, and then take it up and re-
salt it the same as before. 1t is now left
for six weeks. Then take it out, rinse
il off in cold water; then let it drip off
then rub it all over with black pepper,
finely ground. Then l hangit and smoke
it about five days; then take it down and
sack il in sacks made expressly for that
business.
at takes one yard of sheGting, the
heavier the better, to make one sack. Tic
up tight and hang again in the same place,
and let them hang until wanted for use.
Do this in March and it will look just as
nice the next August as it did when you
put it up, provided you take it out and
sun it about once in two months. There
win not be a skipper about it. ;"

Ciover as an EconomIcaI Crop

Red clover is recognized as ranking
highly as a fertalizing crop. Prof.
Voelcker, in a report of the Royal Agri-
cultural Society of England, in 1868,
said, in substance, that experiments made
showed that the largest crop of clover re-
moved from the soil appear TO increase its
wheat capabilities. From this, as well as
other deductions of the Professor, together
with his own experience in the same line,
a correspondent of the RuraL Ne,O
Yorker comes to the following conclu-
siUns:
''Thc best result 10 be gained in the use
Of clover as a fertalIzcr, comes by letting
the growth remain as long as possible on
the ground, without even moving or feed
ng. In this way the roots attain their
greatest development, and the dense
shade TO the top soil is favorable to the
deposition of heterogeneous matter. | would
produce as dense and luxuriant growth
as possible, let it remain untouched by
scythc or hoofs until the last of summer,
then plow and sow with wheat, or better
still, work thoroughly in the autumn, and,
next spring, SOW with barley and follow
with wheat.
