THE WOODLAWN FARMERS.
What was Said at the July Meeting Of
| the Club.
| The July meeting OF the WoodlaWn Farmers
club was held at the farm of Oscar Baker near
COllingwood, Va, on the 10th inst, President
| Pierson in the chair. The reading OF the min
utes of last meeting brought on a discussion
| about haymakng, the merits of the different
| kind of rakes, &c. Some of the selt-dumping
rakes were objected to in consequence of its
being hard to make them rake clean. d. Z.
| Smith still sticks to the old revolving rake
| The utility OF the hay tedder has been demon
strated in an especial manner this season with
| the heavy crops of grass and capricious weather.
C. Lukens said he had a patch of sugar corn
| badly infested with the bud worm, and as ked
| for remedy. He has had corn in the same
| place tor three or four years in succession, and
| change of crop was suggested An application
| OF salt or kainft was also recommended. The
critical report, written and read by the poet
| laureate OF the club, alluded in howery terms
to the improvements made. The wet weather
| has retarded the farm work very much, SO that
crops are suffering for attention, especially the
cultivation of corn and hay cutting w. Baker
ured about six feet long, and he did not get ali
| OF 1T at that. 1t was suggested that he load it
on the wagon lengthwise. Several of the wheat
| crops have been thrashed or being thrashed
and the yield generally was not as good as had
been hoped or expected. suggestion that
Staunton this fall was iavorably received. The
next meeting being the anniversary, John Bal
| lenser, Courtland Lukens and the secretary,
Mr. W. Gillingham, were appointed to make
the usual arrangements therefor which will be
held at Woodlawn on the 14th of August.
