October Meeting of The Cecil
Farmers Club.

Mr.. S. r. Carson's. The club was
well attend by members and several
invited guest helped to swell tile
meeting to about 20 persons.
At 1890 A. NJ. the club was called
to order, and in the absence of the
president, H. Ii. Duyckinck, Mr.. Ad.
am R. Magraw was called to the
chair. To the question in the Order.
of Business, care there any expert
ments to report, Mr.. w. w. Moore
said he had experimental with S. G..
rock and dissolved bone, drilled in
for corn and found 20 bushels per
acre in favor of the bone.
Mr.. Jon. w. Mccullough report
ed similar results from a like expert
ment.
Mr.. VIM. r. Cody reported his
wheat crop l6a bushels per acre, but
could not account for so small re.
turn, the appearance of the growing
crop indicating much larger yield.
Mr.. Wilson obtained good results
from S. C. rock.
Mr.. Enoeh Mccullough stated that
he discovered that his wheat crop
had sustained considerable damage
from some insect which had cut off
the heads of wheat while in its grow
ing state and it was the belief of a
majority of the club that the damage
had been caused by the army worm.
Mr.. Carson made an exhibit of
potatoes which were indeed. as the
ladies phrase new dress, "splendid!"
The samples comprised the "Garfield''
Estate of Maine and blue Victors'
For culinary purposes he preferred
the two former.
The rule with the club is that the
host for the day shall we have pre-
pared and read an essay for the edi-
fication of the club. In compliance
with this rule Mr.. Carson read an
essay on the comparative merits of
large and small barns. The essay
took grounds against expensive barns
and other out buildings. Contending
that large barns. while an expensive
luxury, not commensurate with that
spirit of economy which it was advis-
able, if not absolutely necessary, to
inculcate in rural life, were not eco-
nomical as conveniences, incurred
unnecessary risks in case of fire, and
were harbors for yermin. A barn
which included in one building bar
racks for hay and grain, stabling for
stock, tool house for storing farm
machinery, a granary or bins for
threshed grain, corn cribs, etc. was
entirely too much under one roof. 1t
were better to have several and sep.
arate building for their individual
purposes. The granary and corn
houss should be made rat proof and
built away from all other structures
(Mr. G. has building of this kind,
supported on posts of solid granite)
A $1,000 pig pen was enough (Mr. G.
has a $1,000 sty) and cedar tree
made the best hen house. Barracks
for storing hay built out in the hay
fields were preferable to one large
barn on the score of economy in con-
struction, and also in the saving of
time in housing the crop. Three or
four barLs scattered about the place
reduced the risk from accidental fires.
One fire could never, in that case,
involve stock, crops, and farm imple.
ments in one general ruin.
The subject was we'll handled and

Mr.. Duyckinck, differed with the
essay in the matter Of one barn.
Thought the barn should not necessa.
lily he jumbo but sufficiently COM
modious to comfortably and econom.
ically afford shelter to crops. stock
&c. In the matter of pig pen lie
thought $40. would hardly house pig.
gy with proper comfort.
Mr.. Mccullough was fayorably i'm
pressed with the ground the essay
took and thought half dozen barns,
for many good reasons. would he pre-
ferablc to one very large structure.
Mr.. Stephen Magraw, favored q
large. comfortable barn, and believed
the main reason why the barns ofour
dadies were comparatively small was
in consequence of their crops being
small. The size of barns was meas
ured by the crop.
A majority of the members favor
ed large barns, being willing to take
the risk and i::cur the expense of
housing all under one roof, believing,
after the cost of building. that the
economy in time. convenience and
comfort which the large barn insured
for the future, would more than out
weigh all advantages claimed by the
small and plurity of barn advocates.
Before the members assembled, in
the parlor the host had adorned the
large mirror over the mantle with
a fringe of ma,amonth ears of corn,
both white and yellow, representa-.
ives, of the bounteous crop, good
and liberal fertilizing had
produced. The barn discussion and
other matters having been exhausted
the members of the club and visitors
were invited out to view the barn and
other out buildings, stock, lawn and
garden, etc. The visitors found, in
place of several small barns at
stated distances apart, one large CON-
building with new straw
house attachment, and warm Shelf
cred yard closed in on ali sides ex-
cept the south, where stock could ex-
ercise out of reach of the storm and
piercing winds, atfording, also ample
space to place all the manure under
cover, with running stream of wat
er which kept large trough always
full. This good fortune, however,
was in a measure thrust tn the
present proprietor, the
greater part of the structure
having been erected before expert.
ence dictated that a plurality of
barns ETC., would be preferable.
