VERMONT WEDNESDAY, JUNE 80 1877

of fairs where he claims he practiced his
denominations last year, and among them are
the state fair at Dayton, Ohio, and state
fair at Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and Eve district
and county fairs in Illinois. But the circu-
lar does not say one word about how the
good sense and moral indignation Of the
people at one of those Illinois district fairs
were so aroused that all the officers of the
fair were indicted and heavily fined, just as
they should always be, and likely will be in
the future. Another circular and letter
wants to take the State Agricultural Society
as partner in its cutthroat depravity, and
claims that it usually clears from 81 200 to
$4,000, and one-half of this, the blood money
of the gambler, it will pay TO the agricul-
tural society. In behalf of humanity, in be-
half of Western farmers, let me appeal to
such fair managers to exclude all gambling
from their fair grounds, and on failure SO to
do, may there be farmers or other persons
enough who have the moral courage to
follow the noble example set by Illinois, and
present them to the courts for licensing or
allowing gambling. Another party offers
$500 for exclusive rights. Il is a stain, a
fraud, libel on agriculture, and let it be
wiped out"

Yellow Skins and Ears.

Charles L. Sharpless, the well-known Jer-
sey cattle breeder of Philadelphia, writing
on this subject in the Country Gentleman,
says; THAT may be clearly understood,
repeat-frst, that white skins with white
ears are poor yielders of butter; second,
that the largest quantity of cream does not
always make the largest quantity of butter
third, that many white-skinned COWS are
large butter yielders, but only when they
have yellow ears and, fourth, that as to
yields of butter, the yellow-skinned COWS,
when compared with equal quantities of
milk, and at corresponding times, will yield
more butter and of better quality than will
the white-skinned COWS, even when they
have yellow ears" Our own observation
and experience, so far as they go, confirm
this view of the question. In the choice of
COW we would not be guided wholly by
the color of the skin or ears, but we should
certainly take them into account, along with
the other indications that experience has
shown TO be valuable.

European Peasants and American Farmers.

A writer in the Cuiicator says: 1t would
be high insult to every American farmer
to say that the average general intelligence,
as we find it in Canada as well as in the
United States, was not high above the peas
ants, as we find them in every European
country, But in all European countries the
farming communities consist Of two differ
ent and distinct classes--the landed propri-
etors and the peasants. The landed propri-
etors embrace many members Of the highest
nobility, and all of them are educated with
special view of enabling them, in later
years, to take personal charge of their es-
tates (Which are often very extensively, and
also to inaugurate such systems of cultiva.
ton as shall yield them the highest revenue.
The farmer of America has not the advan-
tages of the European peasant in the ex-
ample of his rich neighbor; he can derive no
benefits from the costly experiments made
by this class in Europe hence we find that
while the American farmer stands higher in
general education than the European peas
ant, farming, in the proper sense of the word,
stands very low in this country, and instead
of being a rational tillage of the soil and a
proper relation of the different farm crops,
it becomes really systematic robbery of the
soil. This constant drain of the inherent
fertilizing elements of the soil explains the
continuous demand of the American farmer
.tpr new land, for virgin soil, each section of
which is to be robbed in turn of its natural
richness"
Vermont watchman and State journal. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1836-1883, 1878-06-26

AN EXCHANGE says True agricultural
advancement must have its fountain-head
in the inexpensive efforts towards improve
ment among the farmers themselves, in the
pasture, the garden and the field" This is
true but in making these inexpensive ex-
periments on the farm we soon discover that
there are some very important points in hus-
bandry that cannot be decided without test
ings that must be too long continued, and
too carefully superintendent, to be cheap in
cost. 1t is for each experiments that we
need experimental stations. We have as
body (though not as individually reached
nearly to the limit of profitable experiment
in the scale possible to the ordinary farm.
If progress is to continue, higher grade of
experiment is requisite; and this, in the
very nature of the case, cannot be at once
conclusive and inexpensive.

Orchard.Grass.

Some nine or ten years experience with
this valuable forage plant has given us
very high opinion of its value. We would
not recommend it as substitute, to entirely
replace any of the other grasses generally
grown. Timothy, June-grass, Red-top, Fowl
meadow, all have their places and are not
over-valued. But Orchard-grass ought also
to have its place, and those who will make
fair trial of it will not be likely to lay it
aside To SOW with clover we consider it
superior to Timothy, since it will give as
great burden of equally good hay, while it is
SO much earlier than Timothy that it is
quite ready to cut when the clover is at its
best. There is no grass that springs so
quick after cutting, or yields so large and
early second crop. 1t is the best pasture
grass we know of, and especially valuable
on account of growing well under partial
shade. A correspondent of the Country
Gentleman says of it, "There have been
some trials made with Orchard-grass in this
neighborhood. The present is the third
season for most of it, and where properly
managed it reaches the highest success.
One neighbor tells me he challenges any
one in this section to show a field of grass
equal to his, now in its third year. 1t
shot up at once dense and strong, and at the
time OF turning COWS to pasture was half
knee Highland it has been almost impossi-
bic to feed it down. The drouth which was
so hard upon other grasses had little effect
here, because its roots are many and pene-
trate deep. 1t is the grass prominently
for our drouthy seasons-and there is hardly
a season that has not more or less of dry
weather which checks vegetation. Our
deeply rich land, which is our best, should
be given to this grass, as it has more capac-
ity to use up material, and wider range of
roots than most other grasses. There is
therefore little danger of an overcharge of
fertility, which results in the loss of nitrates
and interest on the Investment Where a
man has farm and wishes to push it to its
fullest extent, he needs Orchard-grass to
supply his pasture and meadow, as it will
much more than double the profit per acre
over the average net income. twill enable
man to realize the effect of two or more
farms in one, so far as the forage part is CON
cerned. 1t will not do on poor land it is
eminently the grass for rich soils, and will
grow in any of them; the deeper and richer
they are, the better"

EXCESSIVE luxuryis not a natural growth
Of domestic life, or Of healthy state OF
society, but is Imost, apt to develop itself
among those who have become possessed OF
their means by inheritance, intrigue, or by
strokes of fortune, as it is termed. Its ten.
dency is exhaustive, and therefore must pro.
duce pauperism and misery. 1t incites to
dishonest acts in order to produce those
means which are not required in the ordi
nary routine Of life. If to the casual OBJ
server it appears that extravaganza gives
bread to the poor, let him remember that
without luxury there would be little pov
erty, and that when non-producers consume
beyond measure, the privations of the greater
number must become excessive.
