A USELESS WAsTE.-Concentrated manures
are now used in a very wide range of farming
districts, both North and South This has
always been the case in the cotton-growng
States, and when the articles are pure the
planters say the results warrant the outlay
The same thing has also come to be true in
those parts of New England where the staple
production is tobacco. Unable 10 procure
enough yard manure for this exhaustive crop
the growers are forced to resort to bone dust,
superphosphate and guano. In the vicinity of
large cities where trucking is carried on, more
or less Of these fertilizers are employed for the
second and third crops-that is, n heavy dres-
sing Of yard manure is used in the spring for
oabbages, bcets and onions, and when these
are taken off and the ground prepared for eel
cry or spinach, Peruvian guano, bone dust,
or superphosphate is applied in the drill.
Now, either of these special manures is ex-
pensive, and when farmer pays 500 to $40
for ton he ought TO see TO it that no loss ari-
SEES from any cause. But there is general
carelessness in this matter which amounts SIM
ply to wanton waste. Iii quite common,
for instance to see farmers, usually shrewd
and economical sowing dry guano of a windy
day, when, of course, a large portion of the
particles are necessarily carried off in the at
mosphere and deposited in adjoining fields
This is all the mote inexcusablc when we re-
member that this loss can readily be prevent
ed. The manure in question should always
be mixed two or three days in advance, with
at least three times its bulk o: most soil, or in
case there is want of leisure for this, mix in
the field just before sowing. The mass should
be so damp that when handful of it is thrown
on the ground no fine dust can be seen to rise,
and under no circumstances should any OF
these costly manures be applied without such
treatment.

AGRICULTURAL

HARVEST Before we shall communicate
with our readers again, the grain crops, wheat
and rye will have been generally harvested,
let us advise that everything necessary for
the despatch of harvest should be provided
before it is actually upon. you. See that there
be all the tools and implements necessary, in
proper order, and that a sufficient force be Sc
cured /; an abundant force is good economy at
harvest time. Remember the presence Of the
master, all the time in the field secures order
and the faithful performance of each man
duty. Once was the time, there was great
discussion as to the proper time when wheat
should be cut But it has long since been set
tied by science and experiments, that to- make
the best of flour, have the wheat weigh more,
it should be harvested ten or twelve days be-
fore fully ripe, that is when just reaching the
doughty state some grains doughty, and some
in milk. Professor Norton says, 'grain IN
the milk has but little woody fibre; nearly ev-
crything is starch, gluten, sugar, &c, with a
large percentage of water, " and concludes that
TO be the state in which it ought to be cut
since labor has become so scarce, that much
expense is saved at harvest by not binding in
to bundles, but putting it up with rakes and
forks into good sized shocks like oats, make
the heaps with sharp tops, and it will shed
rain better than when in bundles. All grain
should be got in the barn or threshed in the
field as soon after harvest as possible. The
latter plan seems best where the barns are re-
quired for tobacco or other crops. The ma
chine is taken to the field and thus the haul
ing is facilitated. Here let us suggest that
much negectis manifested generally in sccur-
ing the straw 1t should as soon as threshed
be put up in large ricks, in The form Of house
with steep roof, the sides closely raked
down, until they are perpendicular, and the
whole we'll tramped. Straw well preserved,
and kept dry and bright, brings a high price,
from $l5 to S25 per ton last autumn it sold
in this city as high as S35, and rye straw in
bundles we saw sell for S45 per ton Much
the larger quantity is used for bedding horses,
but much is used in paper making, packing
goods, making cheap mattresses and BEDS
There is a steadily growing demand for clean,
bright straw. We know farmer who got
twice us much for his rye straw failed out, as
he got for the grain last year. Since hay
presses have been improved, and railroad fa-
cilities for transportation have increased straw
has become almost equal in profit to hay, aud
tile day has passed when intelligent farmer.
