FARM AND GARDEN.

WHAT THE FARMERS RAISE.-In If
teen years the production of wheat and
barley in the United States has trebled,
corn, cotton, aud tobacco more than
doubled, oats increased nearly l4O, ,OO0,-
900 bushels, potatoes nearly doubled,
and hay increased more than one
third. The report gives the figures
for the chief crops in 1866 and 1869,
according to which the production
Of wheat has increasedfrom 14s, $685.
0OO bushels in the former year to
from 704, ,427, 900 to l,544 ,s99, 900; oats,
from 225, ,262, 900 to 364, ,203, 900; rye,
FROM 10, ,544 900 to %, GAG, 600; barley,
from IL 1891 ,0uO to 40, ,l84, 900; potatoes,
from l04 ,832 900 to l8l, 1853, 900; hay
from $685. 900 tons to 35,648 900 !;
tobacco from 1874 ,3l7 600 pounds to 1884,
059 900, and cotton from 2, ,223, 900 bales
to 5,O20.00O. The remarkable increase
In the production Of cereals. has been
largely owing to the settlement and
development of the western and north
western states. Within the present
generation the centre Of corn produc-
ton has shifted from the south to the
west, and of wheat production from the
middle states to tho far west. In 1849,

produced in the southern states. In
1877, 850, 900, 900 bushels were grown
in ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Mis-
souri,, Kansas, and Nebraska, while the
production OF all the est of the Union
amounted to 494 ,55S 900 bushels. The
Increase Of the tobacco crop has been
chiefly IN the south, where tue prOduc-
ton Increased 100, 600, 900 pounds from
1870 to 1878. Daring the same period
the yield OF cotton increased from s,
OH. 700 bales to 8 5,2lG, 900. This increase
was mainly in Arkansas, and Texas,
the crop Of the former state swelling
from Ill ,000, 900 pounds in 1870 to 3l8,-
900 900 in 1878, and that OF the latter
state from 1o7 ,OQ0, 900 In 1870 to nearly
co., 100000 III 1878. According to the
report already cited, only about 8 per
cent. Of our entire grain crop Is export
ed, including 24.76 per cent, Of the
wheat and E.49 per cent. OF the corn
produced. The exports have rapidly
increased In the past few years, and are
likely to increase IN the future, espec-
tally If the cost of transportation shall
be reduced. Thus, the total exports of
all ereals increased from 80 900 900
bushels In 1868 to 1S9 200. 900 in 1873.
About 3 per cent. of the national prod
uct was exported In 1863, and nearly
IL per cent. in 1873. In addition to
this, the eXp0rtatiOn Of live stock. into
which corn enters more or less, has In
creased tcnfold within the past two
years.

LINE WATER.-Jhis compound is
often Of great benefit In young chill
dren suffering from chronic vomiting
1t improves the digestion and removes
the irritating condition of the urine,
which Is 80 common an accompaniment.
1t neutralizes any excess Of acid that
may be present in the bowels. 1t may
be given in milk; one part OF lime
water to three Of milk. Bismuth Is a
remedy which often succeeds when
everything else has failed. A drachm
of the nitrate Of bismuth should be
given In milk several times day.
This dose is larger than ia usually re-
commended, but it will not disturb the
stomach or cause any Inconvenience.
1t is remedy of which we can speak
highly In obstinate cases. We have
seen 1t succeed when almost every-
thing else has been tried in vain.
Children do very we'll with smaller
doses.

DOMESTIC.

The COLD BATH.-Although the
daily cold bath is healthful and reviv.
ing, It must not alone be depended up
on as a cleansing agent. A man may
bathe daily and use his towel even
roughly, but remain as dirty to all
practical intents as though he esohewed
cleanliness; indeed, the physical evil OF
dirt Ia more likely to ensue, because If
wholly neglected the skin would cast
off the refuse matter by periodical per-
spirattons. Nothing but frequent
washtngs In water Of at least equal
temperature with the skin, and soap,
oan insure free and healthy surface.
The feet require especial care, ard 1t
Ia too much the practice to neglect the
omission Of daily washing with water {;
and the wearing Of foot coverings so
tight as to compress the blood-vessels
aud retard tho circulation of che blood
through the extremities are the most
common causes af cold feet. The remedy
Is obvious; dress loosely and wash fire.
quently. The skin plays an important
part in the preservation of bodily
health.

The Independent Farmer.


The independent Farmer.
Let sailors sing tho wind Deep
Let soldiers praise their armor;
But 10 my heart this toast Ill keep,
The Independent Farmer.
When fret the rose in robe Of greco,
Unfolds it's crimson lining,
And rouod his homely porch is seen
The hopeysuckle tWiping.
When banks of bloom their sweetness sield
To bees that gather honey.
lie drives the team across tho field.
Where skies are soft and sunny.
The backbird clucks behind his ploughs.
The quail pipes loud and clearly;
Yon orchard hides behind its bougGs
The homo he loves so dearly,
The gray old barn. whose doors entold,
His ample store in measure.
More oh than heaps of boarded gold.
A precious, blessed treasure;
But yonder on the porch there stands
His villa, the lovely chermer.
The sweetest rose on oil his land;
The Independent Farmer.
To him the spring comes dancing day,
70 him tho summer bushes,
The autum smiles with mslloW ray,
His sleep the winter bushes
He cares not how the world may move.
No doubts or fears oontouDd him;
He smiles in calm content aud love
Oa children gathered round him.
He trusta 10 God. erd loves lis wife,
Nor grief nor i'll may harm her.
He's natures noblemar 10 lifa
The Independent Farmer.
