Practical Hints TO Farmers.

We give below a letter from one of the
| leading and most successful farmers in
Hawkins county, which contains so much
that is sensible and valuable, that we COM
mend it to our readers. The writer says:
The wheat crop of this county is very
light. The white wheat, except in few
instances, made nothing Its straw broke
and could not be Graded. The red wheat
is making no yield, i'm some cases not over
two or three bushels per acre. The result
for some years past must satisfy the farm
ers of East Tennessee that wheat, as at
present cultivated, does not pay that they
had better turn their attention to stock
this will pay; also, dairying, fruit, and
many other kinds Of farming that will
yield good returns. #Es
| do not wish to be understood to say
that we should not raise wheat, but that
sowing 100 acre fields in the careless way
it has been done should stop. Let the
farmer reduce the number Of acres. Let
him take a clover field that is in good con-
dition, plough that well, and he will prob
ably get good crop; but if he will ma
nure his land, he will be certain of crop.
This season gentleman in town MANFRED
q lot well, put it in white wheat 1t stood
up, did mot straw-break, and made 25
bushels per acre. Land without manure
made nothing.
You are doing much in your paper to
draw attention to our country. / wish
you also to stir up our people to i'm
prove Their advantages. Northern cheese
is sold in Knoxville and other places
at 100 per cent on its cost, yetW we pan make
more and cheaper than they can, our grass
being equal and the grazing season so
much longer. In all of our towns there
is large amount of canned fruit sold and
consumed, all brought from the North,
why is it not made q business of here, the
fruit costs less here and labor is cheaper too
with many other articles that might be
named. So of manufactured articles; we
gre buying them from other states, with
heavy carriage added, where they could
lust as well be made here. We, here in
East Tenn. could be almost independent
of others, If we would only use proper in
dustry and energy. 1t is for this reason
with others that l am anxious for North
ern men to come among us, and learn us
their habits of working.
But / am writing more than L inten-
rded. thought j would make you sug-
gestion which I thought you might en-
large upon. / want to get some one to
write you on the resources of this coun
tyr OF
The prospect for salt is good there is
a good stream of strong salt water here.
They have not succeeded in cutting off the
fresh water. They need the services Of
good man acquainted with the business.
There are good indications of coal in a
few hundred yards of the WELL If these
two are found near together, it will be
a good thing for those interested, but will
help all of our country by relieving us
from salt monopoly, which has been
heavy.

To Dry and Cook Corn.

f. A. Riehl writes one of our cotempo-
raries ITO dry corn for winter use is not
always an easy matter when done in the
ordinary way; but it is SO good a dish
when properly cooked, and comes in such
good play during the winter and spring
months, when the good housewife is often
puzzled what to cook, that all could have
a supply; and for those who have no bet
ter fixtures for drying, / would recon-
mend the hot-bed. Place the parboiled
corn, cut from the cobs, on boards, or sheets
in the hot-bed, or other frame, and put on
the sash, raising them couple of inches
each end the sun shining in will make
it so hot that the corn will dry perfectly
I'm one day; and the heat will be SO great
that not fly will 60 near it, and should
a shower come up it will be quite safe
where it is, and ready to take advantage
of the first bit of sunshine; when properly
dried it will last for years. To cook it, my
wife says, put in tin or other vessel with
aid, pour on enough hot water to cover
well, seton stove where it will remain near
the boiling point, butshould not boil, leave
on three to four hours, then take half cup
of cream, into which stir teaspoonful of
flour, and pour into the dish with corn, or
instead of the cream use milk, and add q
small piece of butter; season with tea
spoon of sugar and little salt, set on the
stove half an hour longer and it is DONE"

GRASS FOR HORSES is no better
medicine to keep work horses in good con-
dition during the summer than bite of
grass. Horses that have such slow work
as blowing are better out in the field at
night where they can get such grass as will
keep them feeding half the time. They
should however, have their regular feed in
the stable before being turned out, as the
Substantial feed. Never let work horse
spend the Sunday nor any holiday in the
stable. Turn him out, if he does roll IN a
wet spot and give occasion for an extra
cleaning on Monday morning. He re-
auires just such change of exercise and
feed to keep him in good health.
