The author Of the Ogden Farm Papers
in the American Agriculturalist writes :
"Indian corn is the ignis fatuus of Eastern
agriculture, o relic Of the days when our
ancestors had to grow it at home or 20
without it, habit Of the Yankee farmer,
a rut of the old fogyism which hates to
adopt new ways and to relinquish old ones.
| modestly venture the opinion that not one
bushel of corn has been grown within five
years anywhere in New England. New
Jersey or Eastern New York, that has not
cost more than it come to that has
not been grown at positive loss /;
and / think it is time for men
who call themselves practical, to cast up
the account, and realize the fact for them
selves. Turn. which way we will, our corn
growing is mistake, and q grave one. 1t
seduces US into breaking up grass land we
might better keep good by top-dressing il
consumes labor that we need at the same
season for more important work, and eats
into our manure heaps like the dry rot in
stead of increasing their value as the pur-
chase of western corn surely would do"
New England farmers are learning the
folly of breaking up grass land to raise
corn, unless it be in exceptionable cases.
SuIGlully COuuuCttu uAVc
proved that manure applied to grass pays
the stalk and blade into mean butter or
cheese as well as the grain. English farm
ers and others who keep borses consume
fifty million bushels of imported corn a
year. This returns vast quantity Of ma
nure. The Yankees feed a great deal OF
Western corn in fattening animals, in the
Ia.v -.
stock. There is no other product of hui
man industry sold in Nashville SO cheap
as corn nor is there any other crop that
has done so much directly and indirectly
to denude and guile the soil Of Tennessee.
These facts indicate the wisdom of raising
less Of this staple, and more Of others that
cost less labor and bring more money.
How to use land and labor to the best
advantage ON any given farm is often
somewhat difficult problem to solve. 1t
takes some years to produce first-class
meadow.,or pasture, and this consump-
ton of time prevents many from
attempting the enterprise. All should
bear in mind the fact that crops which
require two, three, and four years
to grow, are less subject to active compe-
tition, and therefore pay best. Seeding
fruit trees that may be grown for dollar
hundred, are sometimes sold at twenty
times that sum, because few raise them,
and years intervene between the planting
of the seed and the harvest in money.
There are orchards that pay good interest
on valuation of $500 an acre. 1t is the
remoteness of the return for labor that
makes first.c class orchards so scarce in the
south. Our winter apples come from the
icy north. --Nashgi1le Union and Ameri-
