Where you are now harvesting crop
Of wheat, and intend to SOW fall grain
again, do not leave the land until you are
ready to SOW before you plow. There are
several reasons why you should plow it
Immediately after the grain is taken Off
two of them should be an incentive to
you not to neglect this very important
matter: If plowed at once there is gen.
orally no trouble of getting it completed
before heavy rains interfere, as they often
do, to prevent early seeding; when, if the
grain was only to be sown and narrowed
in, there would be no trouble to get it in.
But the most important consideration
and argument in favor of plowing early
is, that the numerous weeds that were
not high enough to cut down, if your
plowing is done early, will all be turned
under and destroyed. If left month
longer, they will have ripened their seed
and will cover your wheat field the COM
ing season.

A Lesson to Poor Farmers.

\ Mr.. Editor :-Sir-As general rule,
poor farmers are those who farm poor
lands, but l know that the poorest land
can be made to produce 80 bushels Of
wheat, so bushels of corn, or oats
to the acre if properly fertilized,-
How is the poor farmer to obtain fertili-
zers? I may be asked. We are poor,
we can afford to keep but few cattle.
Guano, Phosphate, Bones, Lime, &C., are
beyond our means.
To this question I reply with Horace
Greeley, /" No man ever lacked fertilizers
who kept his eyes wide open and devotes
time to collecting them. Wherever
swamp muck may be had, wherever hogs
exist, or flags grow, there are materials
which carted into the barn-yard in the
Fall or Winter, may be drawn out good
fertilizers in time for the Spring crops Of
corn, oats or potatoes.
Wherever pond Or slough dries up
in Summer, or Autumn, there is material
that may be proftably transformed into
next years grass Or grain. In the alb
sence Of all these-and they are seldom
very far from one who knows how to look
for them--rank weeds of all sorts, if cut
while green and tender, or forest leaves
gathered in the Fall, used for litter in the
stable, and thence thrown into the yard,
will serve an excellent purpose.
/ know also that the farmer who lacks
these, has access to bed of simple clay,
may cart 200 loads of it in November
into an ordinary barn-yard, keep it dry,
and use little daily for litter and thus,
during winter get it converted into an
excellent fertilizer
DR.. George B. Caring, the most sue
cessful farmer in Massachusetts, uses
raked beach sand in abundance, as litter
for his so COWS, mixes it with his manure
through the Winter, and draws out the
compound with satisfactory results.
Poor farmers, think of these things,
make your land rich and then it will
make you rich. Never farm another acre
of poor land, for it will not pay.

Hog Cholera.
loKEsBURG, Perry county, Pa,
August 10, 1870.


Editor of The Times; Sir--The dis
ease popularly known as " Hog Cholera"
has proved fatal to number of swine in
this vicinity, and is still prevalent. The
farmers of this neighborhood have, as
yet, been unable to find cure for the
malady. 1t is believed that very little is
known of the nature of the disease and
50 long as this is the case, it can only be
by chance that remedy for it can be
found.
Would it not be we'll for those who may
have affected swine, to observe closely the
symptoms and post-mortem appearances,
with view to an interchange Of observa-
tions, experiments and opinions, through
the medium of our county papers
In this way it might be determined,
what peculiar disease, or form of disease
is meant by" Hog Cholera, which is
certainly misnomer, as applied to many,
if not all cases of virulent disease in
swine.
As the " rest of mankind" as we'll as
pork raisers, are interested in the price of
pork, anything that tends to arrest the
ravages of disease among swine, should
