Monroe County Matters.

On Monday of our County Court, ac-
cording to notice in the Sweetwater Enter
prise, our citizens assembled in the court
house at II o'clock, to organize the Monroe
County Agricultural Society. Col. w, +;
Johnson was called to preside. He stated
in clear and forcible manner the benefits
arising from the operations of organiZa-
tions, both in societies and farmers clubs,
as well as the improvements in stock, pro-
ducts, and fruits, as well as the effects
upon the young men and women, encour-
aging a spirit of emulation, and the conse-
ouent necessity for further knowledge
from the reading of the farmers column
in the county and other papers.
Col. johnson was reared in Monroe
county, New York, and his father was one
of the principal founders of the city OF
Rochester, n. Y; Il city famed throughout
the world as the most extensive Flour
City" as well famed for the extent of its
nurseries and the energy and thrift OF its
people, and consequently he was compe-
tent to talk of agriculture, horticulture,
and all the present means to extend the
benefits of modern science as adapted 10
the production of two ears of corn upon
one saltk instead of one. " What we
know about farming was given III q con-
else and practical allusion to results rs
stated by the United States Agricultural
Reports, and the result of the careful charge
of the fine lands of the Tellico Manufac-
tcring Company for some twcnty-eight
years.
He brought to the notice of the citizens
the immigration movement rs means to
supply the exodus of our people; the
peace and quiet which pervades the entire
valley of East Tennessee, as well as the
efforts of the Tennessee immigration, La
Dor and Real Estate Association of Nash

FARM AND HOME.
SHALL WE HAVE GOOD WHEAT CRoPl

The season is near at hand when farm
org will sow their wheat for the next crop.
The disastrous experiences of our farmers
during the past year, refcciing the yield OF
their wheat, are well calculated to set
them to thinking. This is what is want
ed. Ifthey would do more brain work,
they might relax their muscles, and stIll
make more than they do. The ingredients
of our earth have been wisely arranged for
supplying the wants of men, and we have
only to acquaint ourselves with the ground
we till. and the climate in which we live,
to make vast improvements in the mode OF
cultivating the soil in such way as 10
yield abundant fruits.
Then why not begin to think now, in
time to arrive at some conclusions, which
will assure us a larger yield of wheat next
summer While mush that is to be learn
ed may be intricate and difficult to under
stand, there are a few plain principles
which will be admitted by every one. The
experience of every farmer i'll tennessee
rs well as elsewhere, cOnvinces him that
nothing conduces with greater certainty to
insure good crops. than careful, proper
preparation of the soil for the reception of
the seed.
This is always the case. With season
favorable in every respect, the soil pro-
duces good crops, no matter how careless
" it has been prepared, nor how slovenly
it has been planted and TILED. But while
this is so, the well prepared soil always
produces more, and especially so when the
season is unfavorable. 1t is surprising,
that while farmers admit this, and know it
as well as it is possible for a man to know
anything, they still persist in preparing
their soil in hurried careless manner
depending almost entirely on nature tc
make them good crops
Why should not the farmers begin tC
improve their style of farming this very
year? Why should they, in view of the
Experience of the present year, again in
cur the risk of raising little or no wheat :
experience teaches US, or if it has not ii
will soon, if we pay any sort of attention
to its precepts, that one acre properly cul-
tivated will produce more than two poorly
cultivated. 1t would be well for farmers
to thoroughly consider this before sowing
their wheat this fall. Let them sow fewer
acres, plough their ground deeper, use
more manure on less ground, and then
they will certainly be gratitied with the
result Farmers, try it, and give us next
fall, the result of your experience.

Forcing Stock.

Much is said Just now about forcing
farm stock. The term is misapplied. If
we overfeed we hurt the stomach. This is
but another term for forcing foodin the
stomach and it is not what is wanted.
We are to feed what the stomach can read
ily digest more is a hurt, and is an at
tempt at forcing nature ; it will not sue
ceed. "Crowding," forcing" "overfeed-
ing,u these are all terms that are to be
avoided in the feeding of stock-feed what
the animal will eat with comfort and rel
ish. The relish always points to diges-
ton, and should always bekept up, so that
at the regular times of feeding there is an
appetite, a wish for food. Let this food be
nutritious and abundant, but not so as to
burden the brute to Cypress the stomach
is to hurt it. Thus feed-so as to give
comfort and satisfaction-and the best re-
suits will be obtained.
Much food will thus be used by some
animals, the greedy and the strong of di-
pestion. Thus we "stuff7' turkeys when
we wish them to advance rapidly-that
is in fat We do not want to force
muscle in this way. The young animal
must be grown, not forced. Let us give
nature free course, and aid her all we can
by q iudicious selection of food, and see
that there is plenty of it, with plenty OF
intelligence to direct the feeding. Keep
growing, but avoid overlooking, for this
will intefere with what is aimed at
Healthy digestion-keep healthy-this
what is wanted; but feed no more, for this
will be crowding and hurting and intro
ducing q foreign substance in the excess OF
food which the digestive organs can Ill
bear, and which goes into the dung-heap
Hence the rich manure of stock that il
fattening, which is generally crowded
We should feed what healthy digestion
can bear without harm, and to do this re

THREsHING BUCKwHEAT.-Hary
buckwheat is subject to so many accidents,
and must necessarily be done at so short
notice, that it is valuable to know any
plan by which it may be readily and
quickly performed. Where 1t must be
in the field by scraping and sweeping a
piece of ground, or laying down sheets.
Law over this rail an inch or two apart,
raised sufficiently from the ground to make
room for the grain when it is threshed.
On these rails throw the straw as it is
brought from the stack, and thresh out the
grain, which falls through the openings
between the rails. The straw can thus be
removed and separated from the grain
very quickly. When all is treshed, re-
move the rails, and the grain may be
cleaned on the ground if desired.

BITTER MILK.-CreaTn, by standing long
is apt to become bitter. This is the case in
winter when it is accumulated from day to
day, the quantity being small. 1t rarely
occurs in summer when there is abundance
of milk, and churning resorted TO every
day. If it does occur it may be in the
feed, as is suggested by correspondents.
There are many bitter weeds, especially in
hay, and more particularly when ripe, that
doubtless impart this principle along with
others, odors, taints, &c. Clean hay, with
timely churning and a proper temperature
for the milk, will probably remedy the
evil.
