FARMERS’ COLUMN. Agricultural Experiment. A cnriolia circumstance connected willi •he growth ol clover is, that by cutting the clover twice and removing all the hay, a much better wheat crop is ob tained than by'feeding-it "If by sheep, even if some artificial food is used. This is owing to the fact that the growth of the roots of clover in the land is in ex act proportion to the growth of the leaves in the air. Each leaflet that shoots upward semis a radicle or root downward. If the lea flet be bitten off or destroyed, its radicle ceases to grow. It, therefore, follows that grazing clover by sheep materially diminishes the amount of vegetable matter accumulated in the soil by the roots, and consequently the produce of the succeeding crop. The above is sustained by the follow ing: “Afriond of mine in Northamptonshire had a field of clover; it was divided into two portions, both were cut at mid summer, and one part was then fed off with sheep, and the other left to grow ’till September, when it was again cut and the hay removed. Equal portions of the several pieces were then compared. Where the clover had been cut once and fed off, he got 35 cwt. of clover roots per acre. Where lie cuts, he got 75 cwt.; there being a difference of two tons of vegetable matter per acre.” The Merchant’s Clerk and the Plougkboy. The young vtlai. who leaves the farm field for the merchant’s d.-»k or the law yer’s or the doctor’ iji. •• drinking to dignifv or ccncM' hi- toil, makes a sad mistake. He pas<-<. !.v tita! step, from independence : bar tors a natural tor ». ...I ( oi.-ui., and .he must bo the slave of the reprice of •customers, and the chicane of trade, -either to support himself or to acquire fortune. The more artificial a man’s pursuit, tho more debasing it is morally and physically. To test it, contrast tho merchant’s clerk to the plowboy. The former may have the most exterior polish, but the latter, under his rough outside, possesses tho truer stamina. lie is tho freer, franker, Imppief; and nobler man Would that young men might judge of the dignity of labor by its use fulness and manliness, rather than by the superficial glosses it wears. Therefore, we never sec a man's nobility in his kid gloves and toilet adornments, but in that sinewy arm, wlnso outline, browned by tho sun, betoken a hardy, honest toilet, under w hoso farmer's or mechanic’s vest. * kiugliest heart may boat. —Hunt's Ma gazine. Feeding of Cattle. Tho feeding of roots to cattle, if done pro[H)riy is of great advantage. But if the farmer makes it a point io pitch out Into the lane or yard, turnips, A-c., with out cutting, n;,d unmixed with somo kiud of inofil, precious little good is ac complished. There is a way of doing just right in everything; and in feeding stock, tho right way is tho most profit able. Partners should give their cattle hMre attention; and wo are determined who shall read our paper shall not lack in instruction as to how they should keep their stock. In feeding roots, they should be cut very tine and mixed with chaffed hay or straw mixed with meal, (says a cotemporary,) so that the dry food will be moistened by tho juice of the roots. About a bushel or a bushel or a bushel and a half t-> a luge fatten jug bullock, three times a day, is about the quantity to be fed ; to smaller cattle in proportion. Roots should he fed to all cattle iu winter quarters on ..dry food. Western Agriculturist, AW 89. Galls on Horses. A writer in the lEocsf Grower, says: “A cooling application that will touchen the skin before use, and prevent inflam matory action when used, is what is needed for the work-horse. From long experience, I have found tliesu results to follow the use of spirits saturated with alum. I keep a bottle of alum and whiskey in the stale. , and bathe the pan pressed by the lumies, and the back, for davs before the hones commence their spring work, and also dang through the season occasionally, when there is special danger of scalding tho breast. I have thus passed entire seasons, employing constantly not less than five horse teams in farming uses, and have not lost the service of a horse a single day, for years together, on account of sore back or breast. This remedy will enable a sore to heal, although the animal continues in constant use.” Tiro Flour of Chcsnut* and acorns has just been used with groat success in the manufacture of paper, in place of potato flonr, by the director of the la:go paper ijrills at I.iege, Belgium.

April 7. J. MARSHALL A CO. PROSPECTUS OF THE TEMPERANCE CHUSADER. [QUONDAM.] TEMPERANCE BANNER. \CTUATED 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 aDa Passionate Appeals, we have determined to en large it to a more convenient and acceptable size. And being conscious of the fact that there are existing iu 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 ANCE 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 unscorched. 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 the eve ning,” to rise no more, and it bus 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 tbit 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 and a liberal patronage; for while it isitrictlv a Tern perance Jrnirnal, we shall endeavor to keep if* readers posted on all the current events through out the country.
