Our advice for crop-making is once more drawing rapidly toa close. We are now depend cut upon a kind providence for the consummation ’ of a work soon to pass‘from our hands. But it will be found that the reward will Ik* most like- ‘ lv to fall out in the largest measure, to those] who have most faithfully acted their part in ! proper culture. .It is a wicked presumption in man to cast’ the blame for his failures, on God, when he has failed to do his part, for though we know, that if is in vain that we lise up earlv, or sit up late in the prosecution of our schemes, unless the blessings of God lie our labors; yet wo know full well, that iiiifeb which is charged up on adverse seasons, should be put down for noth ing more or I- ss, than hud work or neglected opportunities. Blit all our moralizing* upon tbn’ I past.,, cannot cure it* errors now, and wo there-! ] fore turn to the future. There yet remains Some j ’ thing fiUTm "doiieTii ttitTT’oti omrrup: • The work-: is now mostly light. All remaining bunches of ■ ■ grass in tlie drill, must In: removed by the hoe, j and the middles oftiie row should be kept soft and clean by repeated shallow plowing*. \Ve think the work in cotton ought to be continued late, not } - alone for t lie neatness of tin- thing itself, or for the ; i benefits of the picking season, hut for the in- 1 i creased yield of the crop. Our observation has I all ten-led to establish the conclusion, that late -continued working of cotton does materially ■ a-Id to its production, This we think may be properly continued as long as the plow can bo i passed through the rows, or until the cotton is i nearly ready to commence opening. I Fodder pulling willcoiite off in forward corn j ; before i.ur next is-ue, and xve lberefore*offer a few ] thoughts o:i that subjeet. Our first is, to cau-| ! ti-iii against the stripping of the blades before i the corn in tho ear is promptly matured. Much ] danger may result from an effort to make the sod ! der crop a primary object therefore let the • grain of the corn be well shrunken In-foro be : ginning to ]ull off.the bla-hw. It is better to ! sacrifice a portion of the fodder than to create ! a l<ws in .the weight nf-tho corn, worth more ; than all the fcKldcr after it is saver]. Any de l ] ticicncy in this department mav he easily made ! up by a few day’s work in saving the hay from j the erab or crowfoot grass in your fields. To make good fodder, it is iudispcnsitite that it is ’ never wet by raiii, and we therefore advise that | it lie bundled ami stacked after a half a day’s ‘sunning rather than submit to a wetting. When ! put up with so little time for etirring, it must bo thrown open for an airing ns it become* hot in the stack after which it may be put up with per fect safety, and • guarantee of better nod more acceptable food than could be had by a longer ex posure to the sun, if it had been caught in tbe rain. When the weather will permit, it ought to be cured before stacking, or packing in bulk. If the fodder is in good condition let it be put up in targe double or tribble stack*, aa it will he much better secured from loss by exposure to ] the weather. Saving llay.—As we have suggested a con i version of a portion of the crab grass into hay, ! we will now give some directions on that sub j ject. The proper time for mowing is, when the ; grass is in bloom. Most of the failures to make sweet rich liny, hits resulted from the postpone ment of this work, uutil the grass is too old, and from too much exposure to the sun. Boon after it i* well wilted, let it be raked into small heap or cocks, au<l when it is a little more cured and dried, increase the size of the rick, and when the process of curiug is complete, let it be removed to the barn, or be put into large stacks. We are very much inclined to think when well tried, the advantages will befonnd to be in favor of the hay making, on the score of economy, as well as in the better character of tbe provender. If the horse could make out hie bill of complainte, we imagine that lid would charge to tbe use of bad fodder, many “of the complaints'peculiar to this noble animal. Wwahdve little doubt, that many of the eonghs and wheezes so frequent, among our boMSare superinduced by the dry fodder which they eat, and featMedWHßtoX-t might be avoided, by the nee of well toved hay.—Soil of the South.
