FARMERS' COLUMN. from the Southern Cultivator. in Joff>rson, &c. Editors SotmreitN Cultivator —ln renewing my subscription for the next volume, (which is herewith sent, you.) I t»eg leave to offer a few suggestions to the bro.iierhood of Planters. In your notice of the visit to Col. Wahken’s place, an 1 Major Douglas’ management, there was much to admire. That the Major is a prince in hisline, is certainly true; else he never could work the crops lie doe*, and keep his hands and teams in order ; hut I felt a regret to see so much labor lost —so much land injured —when the same labor, directed pro perly, would have given as largo returns of crops and greatly increased value in land. When will the South learn that it is bail policy to exhaust a valuable estate in land; to brag of large crops cultivated aud so many cotton bags male! I am just home from a short trip to Southwestern Georgia, and find the same ruinous course in full blast, in that sec tion. Will men never reflect that no land will produce, year after year, with half cultivation, a crop of corn and a crop of grass or cotton and grass, and not exhaust rapidly? Two crops in the year and no return, is too much ; and yet we go on increasing in the art of wearing out our land with grass. All true farmers think it necessary to help their land to make grass; but wo think differently and act accordingly. 1 have concluded to adopt, a different course, and repudiate this “American notion," South, and at the risk of being called an “old fogy,” progress back wards and aim to produce increased crops from fewer acres and improve all my estate together. I regard it better policy and more patriotic and religious. What right have I to wear out or injure one acre of old earth—the gift of God to man—tho feeding mother and common hvrilance of all the race? Surely none.* I have planted as much as twenty acres to the hand; this year have fallen to fifteen acres and cannot house my crop, and have plenty of pork and corn to soil, and next year propose to drop to about thirteen acre*, aud make no less. Perhaps at some leisure timo I may say more on this subject. “ Clifton.” Clifton , Fla , 1855. *Our friend is correct. No man has a moral right to leave land any poorer than God made it, and thus inflict un told evils on posterity.— Eds. Facts about Milk. Cream cannot mo through a great rh'pth of milk. If, therefore, milk is desired to retain its cream for a time, it should be put into a deep, narrow dish ; and if it be desired to free it most com pletely of cream, it should be poured into a broad, flat dish, not much exceed ing one inch in depth. The evolution of cream is facilitated by a raise, and retarded by a depression of temperature. At the usual temperature of the dairy —SO degrees of Fahrcnreit—all the cream will probably rise in thirty-six hours; but at 70 degrees it will perhaps rise in half that time, and when the milk is kept near the freezing point, the cream will rise very slowly, because it becomes solidified. In wet and cold weather tho milk is less rich than in dry and warm, and on this account more cheese is obtained in cold than warm, though not in thundery weather. The season has its effects. The milk, in spring, is supposed to be the best for drinking; hence it would be the best for calves ; in summer it is best suited for cheese and in autumn the but ter keeping is better than that of sum mer—the cows less frequently milked, give richer milk and, consequently more butter. One morning’s milk is richer than the evening’s. The last drawn milk of each milking, at all time* and seasons, is richer than the first drawn which is the poorest. — IFesfcrn Agri culturist. A Farming Item.— A Profitable Crop. —Mr. Sidney 11. Owens, who pur chased Winchester’s Island, containing 80 acres, for $6,000, a few months ago, has realized half that sum from his crop of broom corn this season. Mr. O. had sixty acres under cultivation, from which be realized 40,000 lbs. of broom straw, and sold it at prices varying from $7 50 *o $lO per hundred—averaging full $8 —which makes the gross sum of $3, 200. In addition to this he has gather ed about three thousand bushels of seed, worth 25 cents per bushel, or $7 50 for tlw lot, which makes almost $4,000 for the produce of only sixty acres, and expense of cultivation was about SI,OOO, which leaves $3,000 not. — Fredericks lury (7a) Herald.

Constitutional Debility, brought, on by self abuse, a most terrible disease, which has brought thousands of the hum in race to untimely graves, thus blasting the brilliant hopes of parents, and blighting in the bud the glorious ambition of many a noble youth, can be cured by this infalli ble remedy.

The design of “THE REPUBLICAN COURT” is, to give an interesting and faithful view of the private and social life of this country in the days ot Washing ton.

April 7. J. MARSHALL A CO. PROSPECTUS OF THE TEMPERANCE CRUSADER. [QUONDAM.] TEMPERANCE BANNER. ACTUATED by a conscientious desire to fur . ther the cause of Temperance, and experi encing great disadvantage in being too narrowly limited in space, by the smallness of our paper, for the publication of Reform Arguments ana Passionate Appeals, w*e have determined to en large it to a more convenient and acceptable size* And being conscious of the fact that there are existing in the minds of a large portion of the present readers of the Banner and its former pa trons, prejudices and difficulties which can never be removed so long as it retains the name, we venture also to make a change in that particular* It will henceforth be called “THE TEMPER*. A NCE CRUSADER.” This old pioneer of the Temperance cause is destined vet to chronicle the triumph of its prin ciples. It has stood the test—passed through the “ fiery furnace,” and, like the “ Hebrew child ren,” re-appeared ur scorched. It has survived the newspaper famine which has caused, and is still causing many excellent journals and periodi cals to sink, like “bright exhalations in tne eve ning,” to rise no more, and it has even heralded the “ death struggles' of many contemporaries, laboring for the same great end with itself. It “ still lives,” and “ waxing bolder as it grows older,” is now* waging an eternal “Crusade” against the “ Infernal Liquor Traffic,” standing like the “High Priest” of the Israelites, who stood between the people and the plague that threatened destruction. We entreat the friends of the Temperance Cause to give us their influence in extending the usefulness of the paper. We intend presenting to the public a sheet worthy of all attention ana a liberal patronage; for while it is strictly a Tem perance Journal , we shall endeavor to keep its readers posted on all the current events through* out the country.
