Comparative Price* for Wool.
An interesting tabular statement has been
prepared by Walter Brown's Son & Cos., show
ing the variation in the prices for wool at New
York each month for twenty-two years, ending
December, 1874. January, 1853, fleece wool
varied from 45 to 65; Dec. 1874, the range was
36 to 62; the total] range for the year being
35 to 65. The lowest price for fleece wool was
twenty centsin July, 1861. In March, 1863,
the outside price reached $1 05. From June,
1864, to Feb. 1875, the outside price for fleece
was above $1.05, reaching $1.25 in August
1864. The lowest price for fleece • wool in
1874, 35c., was lower than in any year since
1562, except 1867*and 1873. The highest price
reached, 65c ,is also lower than in any year
since 1862. In 1874 the market was more
than usually uniform. The outside price for
fleece varied, in the different months, only
iron) 59 to 65 ; the lowest price from 35 to 44.
Philosophy of Loose, Deep Soils Re
taining Moisture.
Compact earth is a better conductor of heat
than loose earth, which imprisons about its par
ticles a quantity of air that, being anon-con
ductor, impedes its rapid transmition. It is for
this reason that sandy soils are warmer than
clayey soils. While compact earth is a very
good conductor of heat, it is a very imperfect
absorbent of moisture; two facts which render
it both more susceptible to sudden atmospher
ic changes than loose earth and less capable of
resisting drouths.
Capillary attraction bears a certain relation
to gravety that cohesion bears to molecular re
pulsion. As cohesion, acting at insensible
distances, would sodity the earth were it op
posed by repulsion, so capillary attraction,
acting upon continuous threads, would rob the
interior earth and every subterranean root of
the last particle of moisture were it not that
gravity holds it in powerful check. If, on the
other hand, gravity were not modified by ca
pillary attraction, all arrable lands near the
surface would become parched so soon after
rains as to render vegetable growth impossi
ble. Capillary attraction, modified as it is by
attraction of gravitation, though of the first im
portance in vegetable economy, is a feeble
force and relinquishes its endeavors upon
slight provocation. It seeks soft, porous,
thread-like passages, and abhors surfaces sharp
and unyielding. That condition and degree
of adhesiveness of the soil which most facili
tates the action of both gravity and capillary
attraction, is that most favorable to the collec
tion and retention of moisture.
The following rude experiment which oc
curred to us a few evenings since, may prove
instructive: Three five-inch flower pots were
evenly tilled—the first with ordinary garden
soil, pressed through a very fine sieve and
made as dense as possible by pressure of the
hand ; the second with the same soil sprinkled
in without pressure; the third with clean, red
sand. The three pots were then placed in a
pan of water, so that they were nearly half
immersed. In thirty-nine mitmtes the surface
of the first (compact soil) was wet. The sec
ond (loose soil) in sevenieen minutes. The
last (sand) was not wet at all; in three hours
the moisture had reached but ope incli above
tne water level in the pan.
We may hence conclude first, that and is
not valuable directly as promoting capillary
attraction —and Inly indirectly as, mixed with
clays or heavy molds, it may be necessary to
preserve that porosity indispensable to its free
action. Second, that the looser and more fri
able a soil is maintained and the deeper it is
worked, the greater is the quantity of water
passing through it—downward by gravity, up
ward by capillary attraction. That, third, a
thin covering of sand —say half an inch—
should prove one of the best protections
against drouths, because water passes through
it readily to the ground beneath, and is arrest
ed in its return and held upon the surfece of
the soil itself—since sand is not a capillary
conductor and is a non-conductor of heat-
Since in well-worked soils so much moisture
is conducted to the surface by capillary attrac
tion and at once dissipated by the atmosphere
or evaporated by the sun’s rays, it is reasona
ble to suppose that it would dry out sooner
than the denser earth upon the surface of
which less evaporation occurs. We have but
to contend that while a loose, deep soil offers
slight resistance to the downward passage of
rain until it becomes saturated, the compact
soil holds it upon the surface where it stands
in puddles, or runs off to lower surfaces; so
that while evaporation is carried on far more
rapidly in loose than in compact soils, its sup
ply is proportionately greater.
It may also be considered that the dews of
the night, while they rest upon the hard sur
face to he dissipated at once with the morrow’s
warmth, have sunk beneath the porous surface
and are there retained long enough, perhaps,
to invigorate the fibrous roots near the surface.
Other advantages derived from a deeply
worked soil—such as the dhemical changes
wrought, equalization of temperature, etc., are
not a°part of this inquiry, and have, indeed,
already been comidered.— Rural New Yorker.
mingling the Mlln of Different Cow*.
At a recent meeting of the dairymen one of
the members gave some interesting details in
regard to experiments in mingling the milk
and cream of different breeds. He found that
the mixed tailk from two breeds will not pro
duce as much butter as will the same milk
ohurned separately. The explanation is in th e
variation in the size of the glohulets. When a
large globuled milk and a small globuled milk
are churned together, the large globules separ
ates first into butter, and the breaking of the
gmaller seems to be retarded. When, there
fore, a Jersey cow is kept in an Ayrshire or
Dutch heard for the purpose of influencing the
color of the butter, the larger globules of the
Jersey milk are broken first in the churn,
and, while the smaller globules are being bro
ken, the butter which came first is being over
churned, and—theoretically, at least—the
quality of the result is impaired, if not the
quantity lessened. When a few Ayshire or
Dutch cows are kept in a heard of Jerseys and
the milk churned together, both theoretically
and practically, a large portion of the butter of
the small globuled milk is left in the butter
milk in a state of globules. A like applica
tion may be made to heards of native or grade
cows. Unless there is uniformity within cer
tain limits in the milk globule there is a loss of
product. When uniformiiy is so seldom found
in the external shapes of a grade or native
herd, it is not probable that any greater uni
formity exists between their functions.
To produce this, the fruit must not only

have good cultivation, but must he thinned;
and we agree wiih Mr. Meehan that “one
half the trees which bear fruit every year would
he benefited by having one-half the iruit taken
ofias soon as it is well set, and the overhearing
of a tree will in a lew years destroy it.” We
may lay it down as a certain rule, that exces
sive production is always at the expense of
quantity and quality ; if not in the same season
then in succeeding ones, for when branch is
contending with branch, leaf, and fruit with
fruit, for its supply of light and food, it would
indeed be an anomaly in nature if this should
not result in permanent injury to the trees as
well as to the annual crop.

Cost of all expenses 30 50
Net gain on one acre $ 93 50
I have been careful in noting every dollar
of expense in >the cenduct of /the two above
experiments made on the farm the past year.
The land on which these experiments were
made, was planted in corn when f* pnrehased
the place, six years ago, and I am confident
did not yield five bushels to the acre. I have
by deep plowing and rotation of crops, with
manure, brought it np to its present fertility.
I have planted the land every year,*and the
crop of corn of which the above is a true re
turn, is the sixth I have taken from it. The
idea that the corn crop is an expensive one, is
not in accordance with these figures. Ido
sincerely hope that the time is not distant
when not one bushel of com will come from
other States to supply the wants of the Georgia
farmers. J. S. L.
In Breeding of Swine.
At a recent meeting of the Massachusetts
Board of Agriculture, Mr. Cheever gave the
experience of Mr. LeviT Ballou, of Cumber
land, L 1., in breeding from two Suffolk pigs
down through a period of ten years, raising
about 1,100 pigs, and crossing close relations in
every conceivable manner, brother to sister, fa
ther to daughter, mother to son, uncle to neice,
cousin to cousin, and so on, and without hav
ing, during the whole time, a single deformed
or imperfect pig. —Rural Sun.

have been using it for eigtliteen (18) months or
two (2) years, as you are aware, for myself, and
ordered a great deal for others, aud it gives gen
eral satisfaction. I think in point of ilurability
and economy, it is much preferable to the old way
of painting. It is certainly much more conven
ient. Yours truly,

Mb. O. P. Knight— Dear Sir : We have for
several months past been using your Bradley’s
Patent Enamel Paint on our College Building,
and are well pleased with it; though it was applied
by one having no experience iu such work, yet ws
have a good job. We shall continue to use it,
believing that in point of eoonomy, durability,
and facility of application, it iB superior to any
other pigments offered iu the market.
Very respectfully, G. W. SIMMONS.
LrNCHBUEO, Va., December 9, 1873.
Our readers have seeu for some time past an
advertisement in the Yieoinian of this excellent
article, for the sale of which C. P. Knight, 93 W.
Lombard street, Baltimore, is agent. We have
recently had a house painted with it, and find
that it is all that the proprietor cl&imß. It has a
fine body, covers the wood well, has a beautiful
gloss, aud, we have no doubt, is a very durable
article. Another great advantage it offers is that
it is put up in cans mixed and ready for use. It
will give satisfaction to all who may use it.
