REPLY.

EDITORS CHRoNICLE:-To the above
wish to reply through your columns, so
that others similarly situated may be BEN
Gifted.
The first step necessary to be taken in
the organization of a Farmers Club is to
have head, or president-not an dutonl-
atom nor drOne, but HUe man whose soul
is in the work of agriculture. 1t won't do
toselect him because he may be esquire
or Colonel or a Major or what Is
called "big man" in the neighborhood
1t is not always the case that such men
make the most active and vigorous work.
ers. Never select any man simply on the
ground that he may be considered infiuen-
tial You want one who can and will put
his own shoulder to the wheel and push
like giant. Energy, when accompanied
with common sense, is the one thing need
full 1t will accomplish wonders. In Sc
lecting, therefore. man for this RESPONSE
bic position, see to it that he fills your bill
in the essential respects alluded to.
The next officer of importance is Sec
rotary. He is the odrs-fndn of the organ
iZation-the constant, persistent and I'M
yielding worker, whose brain and muscle
must and will be taxed to the utmost to
enforce life and interest into the whole
thing 1t is not always easy to find just
such man. There are members who
think they have the necessary qualifica-
tions, but when thoroughly tried they are
found wanting. He must be gifted with
the genius of putting the dry bones to-
gether, and covering them with muscle,
sinew and skin. Everything depends up
on his industry and perseverance. He
must, therefore, be no idler-no plodder
Up and doing, is his motto. Labor Cincet
onlttid.
The organization would be incomplete
without Treasurer, whose duty it is to
take care of the funds and to disburse
them as directed. And, by the way,
let me observe that no Organi-
cation has ever yet succeeded
without some means. There ought to be
an initiation fee of one dollar or more.
After the organization is completed, an
able committee of five should be appointed
to prepare a constitution and bylaws for
its government. These should be COM
-prehensive and to the point.
Finally, as the object of the organization
is to promote the cause of agriculture, all
the members should subscribe for some
ably-conducted agricultural journal. 1t is
important to know what the farmers are
doing in other sections. And, in the
- meantime, questions for discussion should
7 come up at every meeting. For example,
Is surface manuring preferable to turn
ing the manure under?" What is the
cause of cholera?n what produces rust
in wheat? These questions fairly discuss
ed would draw out the views of the mem
beers and lead to some settled conclusions.

FREQUENT HoEINGs.-The Maine Far
naer concludes an article on hoeing with
the following suggestive paragraphs: FIRE.
quent hoeings, even during the dryest sea-
sons, contribute TO the benefit of the crop.
BY the loosening of the soil, the air, and
especially night air, charged with moist
ure even i'm times of severe drouth, obtains
ready access to the roots of plants, and be-
comes condensed in the soil. Very often
during hard summer drouth, we have
seen corn leaves and other vegetation roll
up during the day time, but come out
again during the night in consequence of
the falling of the dew, or the prevalence of
moist air. Where the ground is not stirred
it becomes crusted over, or "baked, as it is
called, and hence the moisture from below
does not find its way up TO meet the con-
densed moist air But where the ground
is frequently hoed the reverse is the case ;
hence, the benefit of repeated hoeing dur
ing the summer months. Upon this point
one of our late English journals mention
ed the fact that during the extremely dry
season of 1866, a gentleman was in the
habit of hoeing, with his own hand, three
drills of turnips daily. The result was
that the three drills thus hoed were good
crop, while the yield upon the remainder
of the field, hoed less frequently, came al
most to nothing.

BLACK TEETH IN HOGs.-Black teeth
in hogs jaws seem to be diseased or par
TALLY rotten, and to act in some way or
other, Just as injurious upon the hogs APP
petite and health as the toothache does
upon the human body. Whether the
black teeth in a hogs jaw ache and render
him feverish and fretful, and disposed to
lose his appetite and his flesh, and get poor
and stay in that condition, l am not pre-
pared to say ; but as toothache has strong
tendency to produce this result in man,
it is fair to presume that such teeth in hogs
will ache and produce the same effect in
the case of hogs and other domestic ami
mails that they do in man. We would adj
wise YOU to remove them This is the best,
and perhaps the only cure for the black
tooth disease in hogs. And it surely is not
any more "cruel' to have such teeth eX-
tracted from, or knocked out of a hogs

childrenis rotten and aching teeth pulled
out of our or their heads by regular dent

Gapes in Chickens. and Chicken and Hog
Cholera.

We publish the following communica-
ton from our friend VIM. b. Ewing, Esq,
of Davidson county. Such information
we are glad to get to publish, for the bene-
fit of the people, in the Peoples Pa
peri:
To the Editors of the Union and American
Please allow me to ask you to publish in
your valuable paper my experience with
cholera in hogs and chickens, and chicken
gapes, that others may learn the cure.
In 1862 the cholera broke out among my
hogs, and many of them died. | tried
many ways to kill the disease, but met with
no particular success until l used coal tar,
which got at the gas works in Nashville.
| gave il with corn to those not too sick to
eat, and applied it to others with a mop,
that they might inhale as much of it rs
possible. They began to get better inn
mediately, and all those to which l had
given it entirely recovered. Twice since
then have used this remedy with equal
success.
In 1869 the cholera prevailed amongst
my chickens and threatened sad havoc to
them. L tried the coal tar and effected
perfect cure. L applied to the walls of the
henhouse, to the punches, and to the nest
boxes quite frequently during the spring
and summer, and saved every chicken. l
used the tar every time symptom is dis
covered.
Inc gapes IN my young CHICKENS nave
given me considerable trouble, and al
though having used tobacco smoke success
fully, tried the coal tar. which proved as
successful as the tobacco smoke, and with
much less trouble. From this means con-
stantly applied not only in the henhouse,
but in the boxes where the young chick
ems are kept, and in the feeding coop, have
my chickens been free from this disease
for the last two years. VIM. b Ewing.

A stranger went to church at Middle
town, Connecticut, on a Sunday recently,
was getting Interested in the sermon, a
rough looking, pious church member came
in and took him by the collar and threw
him into the vestibule. He thought he
would stay there and hear the rest of the
sermon, when the sexton kicked him off
the steps. He went to the side OF the
church to listen to the sermon through the
window, when one of the brethren said
"..amen" to something the minister said,

BoTs IN HORsEs.-A correspondent of
the american Stock Journal gives the fol-
lowing remedy for bots Fill an ordinary
junk bottle half full of molasses; then fill
with sweet milk shake WELL and drench
follow the above in about an hour with a
bottle of strong sage tea, made of our ordi-
nary garden sage; next day give the horse
a feed of rough rice, and the dead bots will
come out with the rice. My theory is
that the milk and molasses being sweeter
than blood, the bots turn loose to eat it,
The sage tea will kill them, and it is the
only thing | ever heard of that will do it
without injury to the horse. The rice'will
cut out the dead bots better than salts in
fact, if you will give horses feed of rough
rice every two weeks. do not think there
Is the least danger from bots at least such
is my experience. As proof of what L
have written, get two sage leaves, dip them
in hot water, lay one down, and put live
bot on it; then cover him with the other,
and he will die instantly. Sage tea have
also found very beneficial i'm collie; and is
perfectly harmless, if it does no good"

UTILIZE THE CARCAss,-Whena farmer
loses q horse, or an OK, or any other ami
NAL, instead of leaving the carcass to be de-
voured by dogs, or crows, he should cover
it with six or eight times it's bulk Of earth
and thus arrest the fertilizing gases which
will be thrown off in the process of decom-
position. BY so doing he would secure a
quantity of manure which would pay him
five times over for the troubled it would cost
him for there is very little land in the
older portions of the State which might
not be greatly improved by the applica-
ton of fertilizers.

HOG CHoLERA.-Dissolve thoroughly
one pound of copperas in three gallons of
warm water, and apply the wash about
milk warm to the affected animal, by dip
ping into the solution or rubbing upon it
until the skin is thoroughly wet. When
ever the skin of the hog begins to look
rough and scaly or of adark red color, APP
ply the wash Immediately. Don't wait
until the more alarming symptoms (vom-
iting and purging) set in. Apply the wash
every day until the scales are removed.

HEALTHY CONDITION OF FARM STOCK.
The Department of Agriculture reports
that there have been fewer losses from dis
ease or exposure among cattle, sheep, horses
and hogs in the United States during the
past season than for several years previ-
ously. No virulent disease has prevailed,
and millions of dollars, compared with
several previous reports, have been saved
from loss. The improved condition of
stock is attributed to abundant feed, more
humane treatment, and the mildness of
the past winter.
