Our Maine Correspondence
A Little Retrospect.

The past season has been one Of peculiar
abundance in the yield Of nearly all the sta
pie crops Of the state. The farmers Of the
Pine Tree State have every reason to be
thankful for the bounties Of the year. We
have had no severe drouth, or food, no de-
structive tempest or visitation Of devastating
insects. The season on the whole has been
very propitious and abundant harvests of ev-
erything except, in some localities, corn, tes.
tily to this fact 1t was too wet for a gene
raj good crop of corn, but this same wet that
initiated against the corn was the salvation
of the grass crop, and the making Of the
wheat crop. Under good systems Of culti-
walton even corn has done well the past sea-
son. We have seen as handsome corn as
one would wish to zee, grown the past sea-
son, but there were very many failures. The
grass crop, which is the underlying one Of
our agriculture-Of any agriculture that
thrives, for we must base our system on the
maxim "no cattle, no crop,"-wAs one OF
full average quality and quantity this is al
ways a cheering item. The wheat crop was
never better, and wheat culture is to receive
a very great impulse from this seasons ex-
perience-auother encouraging item for the
future. The other grain crops were proper
tionately good with that Of wheat. The po
tato crop was above an average in both quail
ity and quantity.
The retrospect of the past season has som'
important lessons for us if we will see, heed
and learn them. Stock has done very we'll
for pasturage has been better than usual il
abundance, if not quite as good in quality
Stock raising, especially cows for the dairy
sheep for mutton and wool, and in the NOR
remote sections cattle for beef, needs NOR
attention. We believe that there is NOR
attention turned to it to-day than for year

Corn for Feed.


| planted last spring 10 square rods of
ground to corn, to be used as feed, both
green and dry. One year ago l sent to Or
ford, N. H., for barrel of Connecticut riv-
er seed corn. The ground was broken up
the fall before, and good heap and barn yard
manure carted out on about two thirds of
the piece and left in heaps, as it was late in
the fall. 10 the spring finished mauuring
from the winter heaps, at the rate of23 loads
per acre, (!oad 80 bushels) equal to seven
heaps to load, or seven square rods per
load The manure was well spread and the
soil aud manure were well mixed and pulver-
lied together. The rows were planted two
feet apart and in drills. put on one bushe
and eighteen quarts of seed, planted May
2Sth, 29th and Both. Hoed once l cut
it up and stocked, on the ground, as corn is
usually put up, by the 10th Of September.
There wero 3a2 stocks, weighing while green
on an average S7i lbs per stock, equal to
II tons an acre. cut aud fed 10 FIVE cows
as soon as feed began to fail in my pasture,
aud continued to feed with an increase until
my cows came to the barn. Then | fed
them wholly on the corn fodder while it last
ed, which was up to January l, 1875,
when 1 weighed few remaining stocks that
were dry enough 20 NOW up, which averaged
over % pounds, equal to 81 tons Of dry
corn fodder on the l70 square rods.
