Large or Small Farms.
From the New York Country Gentleman.

From the New York Country G~entlenlan.l
Politicians, rural economists and nov
elists have endeavored to prove that
there is more profit milling small than
large farms; and with the mass of farm
ers, with their limited means, itmay be
that such is the case. Butthe data upon
which their arguments have beenfound-
ed are generally quite inadequate to the
establishing of an inflexible rule. As
well might they assume that one thous-
and dollarsi ssuficie fOrtrades-
men, since the majority of small traders
cOntrive to get along and make money
one has with even less original capital
come to be q millionaire.
That most farmers employ too little
capital in proportion to their acreage, is
an ineontrovertib1e fact; and it is prob
ably no less true that the expenditure of
muscular force in their businessi is out of
all proportion to that of the mental for
ces.
Although tact, skill and muscle are in
farming, asin every other business, most
excellent substitutes fOrcash capital, yet
the amount of these possessed by most
farmers is not suficientfor success with
out a fair proportion of the other.
1t is unquestionably true in this age
Of implements and machines, all other
things being equal, that the larger farms
pay best, for it is better that all dead
machines should be worked to their full
capacity than that they be a constant
charge to the interest account and suffer
natural decay. So, too, it is better o
Omy to employ men and teams with as
few changes in their businessa as possible.
The most gigantic enterprises owe their
success to that subdivision of labor that
keeps the laborer continually at work at
the same business. 1t is constant use
alone that makes theskilled hand. 1t is
estimated that five per cent. of the wear
and tear of moving machines in New
England comesfrOm turningthe corners,
ten per cent. from natural decay, and
ten per cent. from lack of skill, expe-
rience and care in the operators and
teams-al of which would be largely
obyiated by increasing the size of the
farms so as to employ the machine, the
team and the operator constantly from
the beginning to the end OF the season.
There is also economy in housing and
feeding large herds Of animals over
smaller ones, and in fact the arguments,
theoretically, are almost all in favor of
the large farm. With sufficient tact,
skill and capital, aman may successfully
farm an almost unlimited area without
these (Of course but few lack them al
together) he must be unsuccessful on
the least farm in the land.

QUALITY OF Corn FoDDER.-The BOs-
ton Journal of Chemistry gives the re-
suits of some experiments, intended to
show the great superiority of corn fod-
der when cultivated in drills, with plenty
OF fair and light, overthatraised by broad
cast sowing in a dense mass.
NE course we have adopted for the
n twenty Years, may be- regarded a
- of COMPROMISE between the two
namely, to sow sL.e fodder so thickly in
drills or burrows that the stalks will be
small enough for the cattle to eat them,
but giving the plants while growing the
advantages OF good horse cultivation.
They often bear small ears, but little
grain. Thequantity sownistwo orthree
bushels per acre.
The journal Of Chemistry states that
stalks cut before reaching certain stage
of growth are deticientin nutriment. and
thereforethey shouldnotb be cuttoo early,
and the best time is generally four or
five weeks after infeTescence. Wehave
generally adopted the rule to cut when
the edges of the leaves show the first in
dications of drying from age, and while
the great mass of the leaves are vet
green. IF farmers will chew a portion
of the stalk at the different degrees of
maturity. the sweetness of the taste will
enable close observers to judge with
some accuracy when the fodder is richest
and best.
In order to secure the creates amount
OF benefit from corn planted exclusively
for fodder, u experience has led us to
adopt the following rules: 1. To sow
so thickly that cattle will eat the fine
stalks. 2. To SOW in drills, 80 that horse
culture may be freely given. 8. To cut
att the right time, as already designated.
4 And last, but not least, to cure asper-
fectly al possible, inasmuch as sweet
green fodder is better than black, water
soaked, alf-fermentedor
We need more experiments to- determ-
inc the right degree of thickness for
sowing the seed, SO as to GET the greatest
amount of valuable food from an acre,
and the difference in nutriment afforded
at all different periods of the infores-
ence.-IN. Y.4COuntry Gentleman,
