Agriculture. The planter, by raising his own sup plies instead of purchasing food and forage produced by others, puts into his own pocket the profit they would hare made, and which is considerable, for when he raises all cotton he gener ally gets his supplies from a dealer on time, the dealer charging him hand somely for the time accommodation, besides a profit on the supplies which have already paid one toll to the pro ducer who sold them to'the dealer. An exchange says: One of the Brit ish cotton kings informed an agent to Manchester from Fall River, Massa chusetts, that the English cotton man ufacture was “in its infancy that sixteen mills were going up at Oldham; that the cotton machinery makers had orders eight months ahead, and that the watchful British trader to-day scatters thousands of pieces of cottons along barbarian coasts, where last year he sold almost none. A single grain of barley was planted by an agriculturist in the Isle of Man, in 1872, and the same year produced three hundred grains. These were sown and the second year’s produce was about half a pint. These were again sown, and the third year’s produce was fourteen pounds, which being again sown have realized last year about seven bushels, covering a space of oue hundred yards by five. Thus there has been produced in four years seven bushels of barley from a single grain. To be a perfect farmer a man should combine reading, observation and prac tice. A man may work in the fields all his life and be a poor farmer. We should gain knowledge by reading and study, and also by what we see around us, and then this knowledge must be put into practice. Our views, if they will not stand the test of actual exper iments, are worthless. All sound the ory is based upon practice, and all sen cible practice is the result of well grounded information, whether learned by our own observation, or the experi ence of others. That theory which will not stand the test of experience is worthless, and that practice which is not based upon sound theory is equally Worthless. The following metals and minerals are to be fouud in Georgia soil. What a magnificent future presents itself be fore the mind’s eye when these trea sures shall have been opened, and the busy hands of science and industry make them available for the merkets of the world: Asbestos, serpentine, corundum, amethyst, gold, copper, manganese, mica, silver, lead, soap stone, iron, marble, flexible sandstone, limestone, graphite, diamond, tetrady mite, magnetite, kaolin, granite, smoky quartz, tourmaline, gneiss, pyrite, tri poli, barite, red and brown hematite, caleite, slate, galena, marl, burrstone, opal, novaculite, coal, baryta. Me. Paraf, a French scientist, thinks he has discovered a means of avoiding the necessity for rain, know ing that the air is full of moisture, and that the chloride of calcium would attract and condense it, for cultural purposes, he applied this chloride on sand-hills and road-beds, on grass, and on all sorts of soils, suc cessfully, and has ascertained that it may be applied in such propor tions as will produce the irrigation of land more cheaply and efficient ly than by means of canals, or other methods of securing artificial irriga tion. One of Mr. Paraf’s applications will produce and retain abundant moisture for three days, when the same amount of water, introduced by the present method, will evaporate in an hour. He believes that his prepa tion will not only produce two blades of grass, where but one now grows, but that it will render possible, fields, meadows, and prosperity, where now there is nothing but sand and desert waste. How Much is aHorse Power. —“A Young Farmer” inquires of the New York Herald, “ How much is a horse power ?” Reply. —This question is frequently asked. What is understood by a horse power, and why that way of reckoning came to be adopted and brought into general usei 1 Before the power of steam was generally known and applied to mechanical purposes, horses were used to raise coal and other heavy bodies. Mr. Moots, in his experiments, carefully compared the relative power of the different breeds of horses, and found its average equal to raising 33,- 000 pounds one foot per minute, or, what is equivalent, to raise 330 pounds 100 feet, or .00 pounds 330 feet dur ing that space of time, when attached to a lever, or sweep of a given length. This afterward became the standard of measuring power or force applied to mechanical purposes, and which is still retained in common use. For sometime past, efforts have been made to secure legislation by Oongress, to prevent cruelty to animals in transit. The obstacle in the way has been a doubt a to the right of Congress to regulate inter-State commerce. As to the necessity of such regulations all seemed agreed. The stock shippers and the railroad companies are willing THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST. such a law should be enacted, provided it is enforced and made equally bind ing upon all. The present laws on the subject are inadequate and inoperative. It may be asked, why do not the States concerned in this traffic make regula tions for themselves ? This has been done by Illinois and New York, but not by the intervening States through which the eastern bound cattle trains pass, and here lies the difficulty. Mi. Geary, who appeared before the House Committee on Agriculture the other day, argued in favor of the constitu tional right of Congress to legislate in such matters, aud at the same time declared he fully recognized the sov ereignty of the States. But when asked by Mr. Caldwell which would prevail, in case the acts of Congress and the State should conflict in this matter, he had to admit that in his opinion the authority of Congress was paramount. The question is a very important one, as it involves not only the prevention of cruelty to animals, but the putting of unhealthy meat on the market, by which disease is necessarily dissemi nated. The Timber Interest. —Hon. Mr. Cassidy, the efficient and able member from Effingham, made an excellent and practical speech in the House on the Senate bill, introduced by Mr. Kibbee, for the relief of the timber cutters of lower Georgia. We subjoin a synop sis of Mr. Cassidy’s speech, taken from the Atlanta Constitution, feeling that our readers will endorse his views as eminently pertinent and full of whole some truths : Mr. Cassidy said that if the motion of the gentleman from Mclntosh to amend the bill by excepting his coun ty was simply of a local character, he would make no objection, but this question was was not a local one; it ex tended to nearly all; the farmers of that section were interested in the pas sage of the bill; they were generally a poor but an honest and industrious class of our people, and they ought not to be injured by oppressive municipal regulations. These city ordinances raised the commissions on the sale of timber to nearly double the old rates and the bill now before the House re strained and limited the municipal powers to a fair and equitable stand ard. It is a bad policy to oppress our laboring classes by unjust legislation. Give them an open market, and a fair remuneration for their productions, and you will greatly encourage the honest aud industrious among our peo ple, and advance the wealth and pros perity of our State ; on the other hand, oppress labor by heavy taxation, or un fair regulations in regard to products entering our markets, and the voice of history proclaims that it will lead to the decline and ruin of any nation. I hope, sir, that the bill will pass, and the amendments of the gentleman will not prevail. One reason why agriculture in Ger many is one of the most productive pursuits in that country, is the atten tion paid to scientific farming, and the deep interest the government takes in fostering and promoting the agricultu ral interest—a fact which ought to be a useful lesson to us. In Prussia alone, there are four higher agricultural acad emies, with about eighty well-paid pro fessors; forty-one lesser colleges, all connected with model farms; five special schools, for the cultivation of meadows and the scientific study of ir rigation ; one special school for indus trial agriculture; one school for horse shoeing; one school each for silk rais ing, bee and pisciculture ; twenty agri cultural stations, (laboratories) for ex periments and for garden culture; three higher colleges aud twelve secon dary schools, in which the culture ot the grape is made a specialty. All these schools are connected with model farms for the practical education of students. The secret of Grange success lies in its social, reforming and humanizing influence on members, and especially on the introduction of women as im portant and influential members of the Order. These peculiarities are inhe rent in the Grange system, and their success is not necessarily limited to any section, country or clime. Asa means of combining farmers for their mutual improvement and advantage, nothing like it has ever been discovered, and there is little doubt that it will be proportionately successful wherever til lers of the soil or keepers of flocks and herds are found. The ice crop gathered this season at the North is unprecedentedly small. The price of this luxury will be com paratively high this summer, hut the ice manufacturing companies will double their energies and facilities to supply the demand, and will reap a splendid financial harvest. The bill to protect the sheep hus bandry of the State, by a tax on dogs, was defeated by the action of the State Senate last Wednesday. Oil-Stone, a valuable article, used for whetting tools, has been fouud in large quantities in the vicinity of Ev ergreen, Irwin county, The Southern States Immigration Convention met in New Orleanson the Ist of March. THE OLD FARM-BO USE. At the foot of the hill, near the old red mill, In a quiet shady spot, Just peeping through, half hid from view, Stands a little moss-grown cot; And straying through at the open door, The sunbeams play on the sanded floor. The easy chair, all patched with care, Is placed by the old hearth stone; With wiiching grace, in the old fire-place, The evergreens are strewn ; And pictures hang on the whitened wall. Aud the old clock ticks in the cottage hall. More lovely Btill, on the window-sill, The dew-eyed flowers rest, While ’mid the leaves, on the moss-grown eaves, The martin builds her nest; Aud all day long, the summer breeze Is whispering low to the bending trees. Tle Household. A writer gives the following good recipe for making borne beautiful: I have seen very pretty transparen cies made by stitching ferns and gay clusters of leaves between sheer folds of lace, aud fastening the whole, or rather surrounding it, by a slender frame made of cigar-lighters. Any long vine which you have been so for tunate as to have succeeded in pressing will loop itself gracefully over your pictures or brackets. Ivy, the stems inserted into flat bottles of water ailH the bottles tied to the backs of pictuiß frames, can be trained to®grow around pictures with very fine effect. In a warm, moist atmosphere the ivy vine* grows rapidly, either in pots or in vases of water, and its verdure is a real deco ration to indoor life in the winter. The gray trailing moss of the South, weired and phantom-like, or the fluffy, feathery flower of the clematis are graceful for drapery in their exquisite and airy lightness and apparent fragil ity. Nothing is prettier than the bit ter-sweet. Its delicate coral cups break open, revealing an inner ball smooth as wax and tinted with gold. With clus ters of this or holly berries shining out from glossy leaves, or the running ce dar that may be had in the forests for the seekiug, home may be decorated to your heart’s content. Then, if it have heart’s the—the cheer of simple, unaf- ( fected living, the warmth of good hu mor, the tenderness of courtesy, and the grace of thankfulness —be it over so lowly, there will bo -no place like home. ' Uouscltold Hints. —Toothache of the urn at: excruciat ing sort, may be relieved by alum and salt, pulverized, mixed in equal quan tities and applied to the hollow tooth in a plug ot cotton. —When color on a fabric has been destroyed by acid, ammonia is applied to neutralize the acid, after which An application of chloroform will, in al most all cases, restore the original, color. —A screen or blower of wire gauze,, from thirty-six to forty wires to the inch, placed in front of range or stove| fires, will prevent, it is said, smoke! coming into the room when the chim ney fails to draw well. —To take mildew from linen, mix soft soap with starch powdered, half the quantity of salt and a piece of lemon, and lay it on both sides with a paint brush; let it be in the open air— on grass is preferable—till the stain is removed. Another way is, use chloride of lime. Dip the mildewed article in the lime water and dry quickly in the sun. This process may be used with out rotting the cloth or destroying del icate colors. —Yellow stains, commonly called iron mould, are removed from linen by hydrochloric acid or a hot solution of oxalic acid. Wash well in warm water afterward. The following is a very valuable housewife’s table, by which persons not having scales and weights at hand may readily measure the article wanted to form any recipe, without the trouble of weighing, allowance to be made for an extraordinary dryness or moisture of the article weighed or measured : Wheat flour, 1 pound is 1 quart. Indian meal, 1 pound 2 ounces are 1 quart. Butter, when soft, 1 pound is 1 quart. Loaf BUgar, broken, 1 pound is 1 quart. White sugar, powdered, 1 pound X ounce are 1 quart. Best brown sugar, 1 pound 2 ounces are 1 quart. Ten eggs are 1 pound. Sixteen large teaspoonfuls are 1 pint. Eight large teaspoonfuls are £ pint. Four large teaspoonfuls are 1 gill. Two gills are £ pint. A common sized tumbler holds £ pint. An ordinary teacup is 1 gill. A large wine-glass is 1 gill. A large ta' lespoonful is £ an ounce. Forty drops are equal to 1 teaspoonful. Four teaspoonfuls are equal to one table spoonful. The Farmer’s Vindicator (Miss.) re cently said: “Our farm buildings are more dilap idated and discreditable than ever; our fences rotten and valueless ; our stock few in number and Poorer in quality, and until this year, our corn cribs empty and our people buying corn and even hay on credit, to make the ensu ing crop; not a side of home raised meat in our smoke-house, except what we have bought from our merchants at ruinous rates of interest, and, every thing that we wear and use is made at the North and sold to us at immense profits, in return for the raw cotton, which is bought at whatever price the Northern speculator chooses to pay.” Here we have a not overdrawn pic ture of the fatal consequences that follow the mania for “ all cotton rais ing,” which has, for so long a time, blighted the agricultural resources of the South, and dwarfed the strength of our people. Happily, and mostly through the salutary influence of the Patrons Order, this ruinous folly has been showed up in its true colors, and a beneficial re form is beginning to assert itself everywhere. “ Make yourself inde pendent, of speculators on cotton and provisions” is the first motto which our farmers must live up to. Practice this precept, aud it will be well with you. MISCELLANEOUS. FARMERS! PLANTERS! DEALERSJ "ATTBKTTIOKr, Every Farmer amt ftanter in the country, North and South, should raise I German Millet!
