Nurserymen, or Tree Peddlers.

At recent convention OF nursery
men held in Cleveland, q report was
presented and resolutions adopted,
endorsing and adhering to the prac.
tice of selling trees through the mcdi-
um of travelling agents. We cannot
but think the time has come when
this system should be abandoned.
However much may have been said in
its favor in times past, there is nothing
to warrant its continuance. Means of
communication between nurserymen
and planters have multiplied TO such
an extent that the stree peddler" can
find no excuse for his existence, and
the sooner II is ended the better, not
only for planters, but for the nursery.
men themselves, and we advise our
farmer readers to contribute to this
end by refusing to deal with him.
While there are, no doubt, honest
and reliable men among these timer
ant tree sellers, these are in the mi
nority, and misrepresentation and
deception are found to characterize
the greater number, and you are per
fectly safe In refusing TO buy of any
of them. When you want to plant
trecs,-and just here, let us by way
of parenthesis, urge the Importance
of planting much more largely than
we do, particularly of forest trees
either go TO your local nurserymen
and make your selections In person,
or look over the advertising columns
in your agricultural paper, and write

ably treated, and get just what you
order aud pay for. If, however, you
listen to the Establishments of the
oily-tongued "pcddler," and allow
yourself to be persuaded to make
your purchases of him, the chances
are nine out of ten that your spec
ulation will end in veXatious dis
appointment, and you will he dis
couraged from making any further
attempts. Respectable nurserymcn
owe it to themselves, as well as to
the public from whom they derive
their profits, to abolish this system of
selling, and we hope to soon learn
that better counsels prevail among
them,

to all other farmers who own or run

Favorite Emery Grinder, made by

Beating the English.

English agriculture, with all that
pertains thereto, has been held up be-
fore American farmers as n sampler,
so long and so persistently, that we
have come to consider the little island
a sort of agricultural paradise which
it would be prcsumptious in us to
criticize or even try To emulate. 1t
seems, however, that when fair com
petition Is assured we can beat our
English cousins as badly in the do
main Of agriculture, as we do on the
turf, the rine-rangc, the sculling-
course or the walking track. The
exhibition of the Royal Agricultural
Society, held in London, and com
mencing June 30, was open TO the
productions Of all the world, instead
of being confined TO native products
rs heretofore, and both first and sec
ond prizes for butter were awarded
to American makcrs-the first prize
to New York, and the second to
lowa-and the first prize for honey
was awarded TO an American exhibit
male by Mcssrs. II. X. and +. Il.
Thurbcr, of New York. The Lon.
don Office Of the Mcssrs. Thurbcr
represented the parties who won the
butter prizes, and we take it for
granted that both samples were saltcd
with the "lliggin's Eureka Salt" +"
which is handled in the United States
by Mcssrs. Thurbcr. While we are
glad to bc able to win first prizes
from our English brethren of the
plow, We regret TO learn that they
are suffering serious drawbacks as a
result Of an unfayorablc season.
Mr.. Mcchi, the noted farmer, writes
10 the Times as follows:
Another week of flooding storms and
low temperature has put the finishing
stroke TO the agricultural disaster. It
Is now too late FOR the crops to recover.
They are considerably Injured even on
well.farmcd and drained lands, while
on ill.farmed and underlined lands the
matter is simply ruinous. The wheat
will suffer less than the spring crops.
Wedding Is hopeless and unless we get
the promised hot, dry weather many
grasses and clover crops and even peas
will rot unga,hcrcd.

Rye in Corn.

Mr.. W. p. Belknap, of GoldGeld,
Iowa, makes a good suggestion rcla-
tive to sowing rye in corn before the
last blowing:
'lf farmers will SOW one. half bushel
OF winter rye to the acre in their corn,
and plow 1t in the last time, it will not
only have tendency to choke out the
weeds that start up afterward, but there
will be no danger of dry murrain among
cattle from eating too freely of dry
stalks, as the rye will remain green
through the winter and will be eaten
by stock in preference TO the corn .fod.
der. IL makes a desirable feed for all
kinds OF stock and aids materially to
the quality and quantity of milk pro.
duced, besides proving a saving of from
one TO two tons Of hay for every acre
sown--and last but not least, IL affords
q green crop to plow under in the spring
which will renew and enrich the land.
Centre Democrat. [volume] (Bellefonte, Pa.) 1848-1989, 1879-07-24

THE matter of growing roots for
stock-feeding is attracting more and
more attention from farmers every
year, and to stimulate this impor-
tant interest, and supply the infor-
nation sought for upon the subject,
Messrs. Landreth and Son, of Phila.
delphia, who make a speciality of
seeds of this kind, have published a
pamphlet of near fifty pages, devot-
cd entirely to its consideration. Tens
of thousands of copies of this little
work have been distributed free of
cost to the patrons of the house, and
it is sent to any one at the nominal
cost of twenty-five cents. 1t is well
worth while to send for and carefully
examine it.

Land Only an Opportunity to Apply Labor

From the Renal Nov Yorker.
Land, indeed, is only valuable as it
affords an opportunity to apply labor,
and the accumulated product of labor
capital. Without these, land will
yield no profit; and just in proper
tion as labor and capital are judici-
ously expended upon it, can land be
made means of adding to our wealth
that is, to "pay."
We do not get our living from the
land we get it from the labor and
capital laid out on the land. This
concentration of effort upon small
areas of soil is something little un-
derstood in America.
Centre Democrat. [volume] (Bellefonte, Pa.) 1848-1989, 1879-07-24

Now that "harvest is ended" and
We are about to enter earnestly into
preparation for putting out next
years crop, let us stop and think n
little. Can we not accomplish some
thing in the direction of "making
farming pay" by decrease in the
number of acres put out, and an in
crease of manure, labor, and care in
ell the work Of preparation upon
those acres ? Let us try it. A
hundred bushels of wheat cannot be
produced on ten acres of ground at n
cost of much less than one hundred
dollars. We believe that the same
number Of bushels can be produced
on five acres at cost of but little,
if any, more than fiity dollars. That
means debt; this means "making
farming pay"
