EARLY CIT GRASS BEST.

The German papers publish details
of a series of experiments carried on at
the agricultural schools of Fatheriand,
for the purpose of testing the nutritive
properties of grass and hay at various
stages. The experiments were initiated
by the excessive demand for forage in
Germany, but are not the less valuable
on that account. By an elaborate
series of analyses, it is shown why
young grass is more nutritious than
mature grass. The physiological ex-
periments show that it is more easily
digested. Thus, grass . inches high
contains nearly so per cent, more of
albuminoids than grass which is six
inches high, and about 10 per cent.
more Of "crude fat" (5.24 per cent.
against 4.82). The mature grass con-
tains more woody fiber and less flesh
forming matter than the young grass,
and besides this it is found thai the
nutritious Ilbuminoids exist In a less
soluble form in hay than in young
grass. Hence the difference of nutri-
tive value and digestibility. Autumn
nal hay was found to be more nutri-
tious than summer hay.
Hay grown in cool weather is always
best. 1t is cool summers in California
that gives farmers SO large crops of
wheat and yields of vegetables, includ-
ing the pine trees of wonderful growth

FARM AND GARDEN.
COTTON CROP NEXT YEAR.

The farmers and patrons of husban-
dry held meeting in Atlanta on the
25th instant at which they resolved not
to plant over one-third Of their crops
in 1874 in cotton, to adopt the cash sys-
TEN in buying fertilizers and all need
full supplies, and maintain their right
to fix the price of their staple. To a
reasonable extent this is their power.
The higher, however, they place the
value of cotton, the larger the bounty
offered to cotton growers in Egypt, In
dia and elsewhere to supply the de-
mands of Europe with the minimum
from this country. While reducing
cotton-culture toastrict cash operation,
economy in all plantation expenses be-
comes matter of the first Importance.
Fertilizers should be'grown or manufac-
tured at home so Ear as is practicable.
Southern peas may do far more to re-
cuperate the soil than they now do;
and the same may. be said of clover and
the perennial grasses generally. All
should study the prime sources OF
the earth's natural fruitfulness, and
learn to utilize the same. Every far
mer should ask himself what is man
ure? Where does it come from!
Clearly from air, water and the ground.
The best we have is the product of
vegetable and animal life, and may be
raised on the farm, requiring some
times a little seed like guano from the
ocean

Review of the Cotton Trade.

From the New York Bulletin, Nov. o.
The market has been very unsettled du-
ring the past week. The question of sup
ply and demand continues to exert very
little inflence, but the fluctuations in cot
ton have turned upon very much the same
considerations that control the speculation
on the Stock Exchange, namely, the con-
dition Of the money market, the issues of
currency, present and prospective, by the
government, the probabilities of a rupture
with Spain growing out Of the affair of the
''Virginius," and the general tone of mer-
camille circles. As these have varied in
their leading aspects the prices of cotton
has varied. The movement, however. was,
on the whole, rather slow, until Friday,
when the exciting reports received from
Madrid, though not fully credited, carried
up gold to 1104, and caused renewed &C
tivity in cotton, especially for future de-
livery, and carried up prices to the highest
figures of the week. The following will
indicate fluctuations:

stood than at present. Male bees can
not even extract honey from any flower
to keep from starving. They have ap-
parantly but one duty and function in
life, and that is aid in the propagation
of queens and undeveloped female
bees. If we limit one queen to the
average Of only ten new swarms in her
lifetime, or to lay only 100000 good
eggs, it is obvious that the bee hus-
bandman has only to provide suitable
pastures for his stock to produce
honey much cheaper than SUI
gar can be made from cane.
The italian bees gather honey alike
from white, alsike and red clover. Our
common bees fail to reach the nectar in
red clover. Alsike clover is considered
to yield the most honey per acre. Well
managed orchards, sown to buckwheat,
supply a good deal of food and work
for bees. 1t is a common mistake to
multiply swarms of bees at one place
beyond the local supply of sustenance
for SO many colonies. Neither animal
life nor plant life is worth anything to
the owner and cultivator unless it be
supplied with proper aliment. On our
cheap lands honey ought to be very
profitable crop in connection with other
braches of industry. DIR. Hamlin can
furnish both the bees and the informa-
ton, if wanted, to make fair start.

day was from } to &c, the greater advance
being for the later months; but, as we have
noted in our daily reports, the demand has
oeen mainly for January, and at the close
Inc advance is best sustained for the early
months. 1t is difficult to account for all
these fluctuations. The present state of
trade in cotton goods does promise much
ior the future of the material. Certain it
is that general trade is relapsing into dull
and spiritless condition. There is almost
universal want of confidence in the persons
10 whom the future of our finances are con-
nded by the laws, and conjeciures of all
sorts OF mischief to be done haunt the pub
Tic mind, and check that revival of bust
ness and that steady progress Of affairs upon
winch the prosperity of cotton manufactures
depends.
The reduction of the bank rate to s per
cent, with prospect ola further reduction,
mas served to barely steady the markets at
Liverpool and Manchester. They have no
faith in short crop estimates, as they were
SO completely misled last season by under
estimates of the crop for that year. The
return effects of our panic upon more dis
tant parts are yet to be felt, and on all sides
spirit of caution prevails, which will not
be without its effect at both Liverpool and
Manchester.

From the four acres have 2l6 bush
els of corn, or 49, bushels of ears; max
ing net cost per bushel for the corn, %
cts; and it is worth at this time, in my
corn house, 20 cts, making42 cts. profit
ON each bushel. l will say that my
corn crop pays the best of any crop l
grow, and has for the last three years.
will now give cost of producingoth-
er crops on my farm, reckoning the
same prices for labor as did on corn
crop. Oats cost me 36 cts. per bushel,
worth at this time so cts. Buckwheat
cost IS cts, worth now so cts. Rye
cost Ga cts, worth IS cts. Potatoes
cost 81 cts, worth so cts. The last
mentioned crops have not paid as well
as they would have done, had there
been more rain during the early part of
the season. But all have paid, l think,
Notwithstanding the dry weather and
low prices. l would like to hear from
others through the Rural, and, hereaf-
ter, will give cost of articles of produce
from my farm W. b. M. i.
The above is copied from the Rural
NelU Yorker. But few Southern farm
ers would have gathered sixtons or H.
600 pounds of good fodder" from four
acres of corn ground, worth sixty dol
lars. Many have yet to learn how to
make fair crops of both hay and grain
at one operation. This farmer raised
81 bushels Of corn and ton and half
of fodder on each acre planted. Hecut
up and saved the upper part of the
stalks, probably close above the ear.
His statement is defective in not esti-
mating the value of the manure used,
aside from the labor of hauling and
spreading. What was the value Of the
elements of fertility actually consumed
1t will be seen that the fodder reduced
the cost of the corn from Sc cents a
bushel to one-half that sum.

DEATH OF DIR. r.. MCKINNEY.

The Fayetteville papers announce the
death Of DR.. Rane Mckinney. He died, at
his residence in that place, on the Doth inst,
of congestion of the brain. He is spoken of
as man of very estimable character, hav-
ing the entire confidence and respect of the
community in which he lived and served
Besides being practicing physician, he
was Clerk of the Circuit Court for Lincoln
county. The bar of Fayetteville held a
meeting to express their appreciation of his
character, and their regret for his death.
The eulogies passed and the resolutions
adopted show that Fayetteville has lost an
excellent citizen and t1Ily-good man.
