Many farmers destroy the produc'
tiveness OF their ARMS by shallow
working. When their crops begin tC
fill of, they clear more land, and
gradually give up the old HeldS tC
briers and edge grass. They seem tc
think their title deeds give them q
right to only four inches depth ofsoiI,
when II they will study the meaning
OF their deeds and apply the lesson
to their fields, they will soon realize,
in two-foId, crops, the fact that the
law has given them two farms where
they had supposed they had only
one in other words that the sibsoil,
brought up and combined with the
top soil and enriched with the atmos.
pherlc influences, and proper manures
and fertilizers, win increase the pro-
ductiveness Of their farm at least
fwO-ENd crops. II our farmers, in
stead of laboring to double the num-
her of their acres, would labor to
double their crops, they would find Il
4 vast saving Of time and soil, and an
increase to double their profits.
British farmers use brain and apply
work wisely, paying back to the
earth what they borrow or take from
1t by producing; endeavoring to en-
rich their ground, and In return the
soil enrtcbes them. Hence they pro-
duee more per acre on ground work
for centuries, than our farmers do on
their rich, virgin soil. The difference
is in the way they plan and work. -

VALUE or STRAW AS FODDER. ~
Professor Atwater writes to The
tAarfcultirist as follows eMAny farm,
ers consider straw and corn-stalks ai
nesriy worthless for fodder. Other
feed them 70 their stock and find
them very valuable. On English
farms yuli may SOC straw stacked as
carehilly as hay and sid at a guinee
i85 gbld) per ton, for mixing with
0ther food Tor stock, and In France
aud Germany straw IL as staple an
article oi fiddler as hay Irecall ore
case IN Germany when oat-stFaw was
rated AZ $500, and field beets at
s2.i5 gold per toni another where
barley straw WAS valued at $4.33 and
al0ver hay 1T $40 per tim, these being
the prices at which these materials
were aclnuIly bought and sold for
flIddet, md IN those parts Of this
couniry, and Of Europe especially,
which ore most noted for their sue
ce4aul agriculture, straw and like
fodder materials are used with profit,
not only store for cattle and sheep but
nla0 foF horses, wcskIng oxen, milk
cows, and iaitenlng cattle"

AVOID PRoTRACTED TOIL-The
work of the day should be conducted
In the best Inanner. Thorough, care
full, Intelligent work during seven or
eight hours IL much more profitable
than ten hours OF hurried work. In
cities, merchants and business Blefl
seldom apply themselves more than
six hours n day, and probably the
greater part OF the best work done in
that city II performed In less than
ave hours each day. There Is no
reason why farmers who create the
wealth Of the world should labor more
hours than they who manage this
wealth, Formerly, constant toll was
required 10 support q family, because
all work was done at q disadvantage,
tcnis Of Rh kinds were poor, and
labof-savlng machinery was un-
known. More actual work was re-
quired in the last generation to make
the clothing OF a family than is now
required 70 buy the clothiEg, and the
fo,,d added, and every year the farm
er has new advantages and powers in
ihis direction. II Is for this reason
that the farmer should seek to en-
large his means for acquiring infor-
ilsAtgnn, and Of rising TO new dignity.
This he can only do by having more
leisure, and BY avoiding protracted
toll. There " no good reason now
why he may not unite culture and
elegance with rural pursuits. -

CAPAnnErIEs oF An AcRE.

]. NJ. Smith, market gardener
OF Green Bay, furnishes some inter-
estIng statements Of his experiments
I'd hIgh culture. He has found the
rule invarlble, not a single exception
to 1t, that the more he has spent in
culslvatlng and manuring, the greater
have been the net profits per acre.
Last season he cultivated fourteen
acres, and began with a more thorough
and expensive cultivation than ever
before. The result was, that al
though there was ia s'teri6c drought, !"
one OF the dFycst seasons ever known
in that region, after spending So, 1856,
or 1884 per acre; he had better
balance than atany previous year.
He appears to regard constant culti-
walton, especially through drought,
in connection with copious manuring,
as all important. Stable manure is
the standard; with such use OF
superphosphstes, plaster, lime, ashes
and other manures as experience
and good sense point out. After you
have learned how to spend to the
best advantage" he remarks, ga
larger profit may be made laying out
$500 per acre than with less. After
the second year, If your land does not
pay all It's expenses, taxes, and ten
per cent. Of one thousand per acre,
there is something wrong somewhere.
i have, some acres of land that did
not pay expenses TOR two years, but
for a number OF years past have not
failed to pay ten per cent. on at least
1000 per acre. expect my whole
garden to do more than thatin short
time.
He adds that he is now aiming at
1000 bushels Of onions per acre. then
a crop OF carrots or turnips, or 500
bushels Of early potatoes; or ifstraw-
berries. 12,s00 quarts, or 400 bushels
peracre This amount ofstrawberries
il net wholly impossible; as we have
known under our own observation,
this rate on tWo-thirds Of an acre. -

The loss to the sheep interests OF
the United States by the depredations
Of dogs IL summed up by the depart-
ment Of agriculture reports at 2 per
cent per annum of the entire number
Of sheep In the country. 1t is shown
that IN those States where stringent
dog laws exist, the destruction Is
much smaller than In the unprotected
States. In Florida, where there is
no dog law, II per cent, Of value
were destroyed in Ohio, which has
a dog law, only four-tenths Of per
cent.

AMERICAN GUN MAKE

AMERICAN GUN MAKING.-As
long as men will fight it brcomes
important that they should be sup
piled either with good legs or good
arms. The former are only usaful
as a ''reserve ;" the latter are indis-
pensi6le as active agents i'm the
fight. Americans have lately had
very little fighting TO do on their
Cwn account. but of late have en-
tered extensively into the business
of supplying other people with the
necessary arms for shooting each
Other. A cable dispatch from Mad
rid states that 10000 men in the
Spanish army are wai.ing for arms

The Mississippi Conference.

The fifty-ninth session Of the Mis-
sissippi Conference OF the NJ. f.
Church, South, convened at Halle
hurst, Wednesday, Dec. 16: 1874,
Bishop Paine presiding.
The deliberations of this body
were characterized by much relig-
ious zeal and CHI istian unity, and
the opinion obtains generally that
it was one of the most spiritual aud
harmonious meetings of this Church
ever held in the State. The pro-
ceeaiDgs are foil of interest, but
want Of space precludcs their prb-
LEGATION. A resolution Was passed
authorizing the printing of ellis
tory of Methodism in Mississippi"
from tho peu OF Rev. JnO. G. Jones.
This volume ought to be of interest
to all treaders, but more especially
to the MethOdiSts. If the author
has properly worked up the rich
and abundant materials at bis CON-
mand, and invested them with the
charm of pleasing and graceful
STYLE, bis book will prove a valuable
contribution to the religious lilera-
ture Of Mississippi.
