the fine mechanical effect on the soil

COLONEL J. Il. TRUE, of Kansas,
gives an excellent article on cattle feed
ing and states that he weighed five
head of sborthorn bull calves about one
year old, and they averaged nearly 900
pounds, having made q growth of 75
pounds a month from birth. He fed so
head of steers on corn and prairie grass
from May to August, and they made a
gain of 100 pounds month each, which
gain he attributes to their shorthorn
blood. With a lot of steers sired by a
shorthorn bull, as compared with some
by scrub sire, but all from the same
stock OF cows, and fed alike until two
years old, the hslf-shorthorn steers
averaged l ,450 pounds, which sold for
8 cents per pound, and the others aver
aged l, go pounds, which sold for At
cents per pound. or Sl6.25- per head
difference. Mr.. True says that the
"qualIty" of bullock is that which
makes him susceptible of being fitted
for the butcher in half the time, and
less feed than Is necessary to bring the
coarser animal to the same degree of
excellence.

DRIED muck from the swamps
is a exceedingly useful material
for the gardener. In many sections of
this country it can be obtained at little
more than the cost of cutting, drying,
and carting it. No gardener ever has
too much of it. 1t has many excellent
properties. 1t will make heavy soil
light. 1t will make dry soil moist. 1t
will make cold soil warm. 1t is an ex-
cellent absorbent of water and gases.
1t Is itself manure, and can be used to
s-eat advantage in our stables, cow
houses and pIg-pens, as well as for
mixing with manure in our compost

from the greater attention paid to them

Green Manuring.

The abuse of thing is no good argu-
ment against it's use. When a farmer
complains that a wheat crop, following
heavy growth of corn and Hungarian
grass recently plowed under in heavy
clay soil was injured, it was the farm
er's mistake and not the green manur-
ing which was to blame. Wheat re-
quires thoroughly rotted manures in
which the organic matter has become
mineralized, or so nearly so as to quick
ly dissolve in the soil. Fresh raw ma
nures or matter of any kind are wholly
unsuitable to this crop. A clover sod
plowed in early makes an excellent
preparation for wheat, but it must have
time to decay, which it does very rap
idly. Such gross food as corn and Hun
garian grass ploWed under without time
for it to decay, and which from it's
grossness, bulk and siliceous character
can not decay without considerable
time, is not suitable for wheat in any
soil; and in heavy clay soil decay goes
on very much more slowly than in more
porous, lighter soils, in which oxidation
goes on with great rapidity
In agricultural operations we have
certain principles, it is true, but not
one of these can be safely made use of
without the most careful Judgment to
adapt them to ever-varying conditions.
It will not do to apply any principle, of
whatever kind it may be, indiscr;m-
inately. The greatest mistakes are
made by this careless application of
leading principles of agriculture Thus,
deep blowing, draining, surface manur-
ing, artificial fertilizing, the use of
lime, and green manuring are all ex-
cellent under certain conditions, but
under certain circumstances are iniuri-
GUS and may be ruinous. A thin soiL
may be ruined by deep blowing, while
q deep, rich soil is benefited by it,
especially if it be heavy clay and has
been well MANFRED as far down as
it is plowed. An open subsoil needs
all the water it can be made to hold,
and if this is removed by draining
the money spent is not only loss, but
serious mischief. When we spread
manure on frozen, sloping ground we
merely throw it away and the labor
spent as well. When artificial fertiliz-

the reach of the roots, and put them
where they are quickly dissolved and
washed into the subsoil. Lime used to
excess actually reduces the soil to the
utmost poverty, and, as the old saw de-
clares, impoverishes the sons whose
fathers are so unwise as to do it. And
in green manuring it is quite easy to
do more harm than good, as is indicat-
ed by the complaint of the farmer.
above mentioned, who plowed under
green crop for the very worst purpose,
to which it can be applied. Green
crops, more especially those of a bulky,
succulent nature, as corn or buckwheat,
should always be followed by q dress
ing of lime and sufficient interval of
time for its decay. A grass or clover
sod is excellent for corn or oats or flax,
because these crops are gross feeders,
but wheat, like a high-bred roadster,
can not be fed upon coarse corn-fodder,
or anything but the most delicate and
digestible food.-M Y Times.

Tin Mines in North Carolina.

Considerable interest has been aroused
by the reported discovery of tin in North
Carolina. Meager accounts have been
published in the Northern press. The
discovery was made by young man,
Robert I. Claywell, the son of mer-
chant of Morganton, N. Co.. while at
tending school at Kings Mountain.
Claywell's bent for mineralogy was de-
veloped when a lad through his accom-
panying Prof. j: L. Humphrey, the dis
coverer Of the precious gem hiddenite
in his mineral explorations through the
State. Claywell noticed the peculiar
mineral about a year ago and collected
several specimens of it. His examina-
tions showed them to contain tin. He
sent some of the ore to the Carolina
exhibit at the late exposition at
Boston, where it attracted much atten-
ton. An analysis of it gave percent
age of tin as high as seventy per cent.
The locality of the discovery is Cleve-
land County, N. O., near Kings Noun
tain Station, on the Airline Railroad,
from Charlotte, to Atlanta. The prop
erty is about four miles from the battle
field of Kings Mountain.
The conformation of the country
thereabout is undulating. The outcrop
ranges about fifty yards wide, runs
through Kings Mountain village, and
is traceable about one and half miles.
Its trend is northeast and southwest.
The soil formation is decomposed mica
schist. Where the stratum is exposed
it shows an irregular vein of quartz as
ISOLATED with rutile, tourmaline and tin
ore in crystal form scattered Though
it. The property is owned or controlled
by w. T. R. Bell, of Kings Mountain,
DR.. Charles W. Dabney. State Chemist,
of Raleigh, Judge A. G. Avery and
Robert L. Claywell, of Morganton.
The development so far has been incon-
siderable, chiefly confined to prospect
ing for the vein. The showing, how
ever, is very encouraging. Trenches or
cross-cuts have been run in four places,
exposing the strata These disclosed a
more or less irregular and broken vein
surface One of them showed a vein
about three feet wide, with another
eighteen-inch spur vein leading toward
it. This main vein was sunk upon
oOuuS u1IS6u le0L, anu was 1Ounu TO run
nearly vertically through partially dis
integrated slate, tending to grow solid
with depth. The quartz and vein mat
ter grew solder with depth. The re-
cent continuous rains made it impracti-
cable to do much sinking with the
present facilities, but the evidences thus
far point to the existence of true vein
and mineral in place.
The formation and association of
mineral are similar to those of the Corn
wall mines, England. Seven quanti-
tative analyses made last week by
Prof. Hanna, of Charlotte, from the
latest vein matter taken out, averaged
forty-fve per cent. of tin. This dis
covery in State justly proud of its rich
and varied mineral and other resources
forms leading subject of interest
and conversation. SALISBURY en- CO.

Regular Feeding.

Irregularities as the amount of rations
for morning, noon and night will often
serve to check all improvement, or even
to induce loss of condition In working
horses this becomes especially manifest;
those that are fed unequally or at hap
hazard, consuming often an excessive
amount of fodder, yet falling in con-
dition, becoming languid and easily
fatigued in harness, and the subject Of
frequent attacks of collie and indigo
ton In manysuch instances the remedy
is to change the feeder, when upon a
smaller ration even; but in the hands of
careful, observant, andpunctual man,
the same horses will speedy recuperate,
gain flesh, and perform their daily tasks
with increasing energy. In other stock
the effects may be less manifest, bat
they are no less real; and aHshe diff
ference between the others may be
traced, in many cases, to this onesabiect
of more or less. care IN the feeding, SO
