ATHENS Sheep on i Farm. Sheep are undervalued by the mass of land-holders as a means of keeping up the fertility of the soil and putting money into the pockets of farmers- Thetnomont ono begins to talk of sheep husbandry the listener or reader begins to look for wool quotations, as if wool was all that yields profit from sheep. One might as well look for wheat quotations alone when there is talk about the profit of farming. Sheep on a (arm yield both wool and mutton. They multiply with great rapid ity. They aro the best of farm scaven gore, “cleaning a field” as no other cla?s of animals will. They give back to the farm more in proportion to what they take from it than any other animal, and distri bute it better with a view to' the future fertility of the soil. Provo this? There is no need of proof to those wbo have kept sheep and know their habits and thoir yiold. To prove it to those who have not tho experience, it is necessary they should try tho experiment or accept tho tcstimo-. ny of an experienced shepherd. But the live stock of a farm should not, necessarily, bo sheep, exclusive. Cattle, horses, swine, have their respective places in tho farm economy. How many of each to keep is a question that locality, character of markets, adaptation of soil, predisposition, taste and skill of tho hus bandman must decide. But one thing ought not to bo forgotten, that the more stock a man has on his farm tho more grass, and it ought to, and if properly mar,, aged, it will grow. The rales of increase will correspond with tho business tact, technical and practical knowledge, and skill ot tho husbandman.—N. York World Wheat Crop Prospects. A gentleman wbo has traveled much through Tennessee, Kentucky, West Vi gmia, Maryland, Indiana, Ohio and South ern Illinois, informs the St. Louis Demo crat that the winter wheat crop now in tho ground in all that region is in excel lent condition. Some farmors supposo the broadcast sowing would prove a failure in such States as Tennessee, Kentucky, Vir ginia and Maryland, where the snow did not lay long on tho ground ; but examina tion of tho plant proves tho reverse. Not only is tbo growing wheat in excellent condition in those States, but the aroa pul in is largo. In tho more northerly portion of tho winter wheat belt tho earth has been very steadily covered with snow,and thero can be no doubt that when a thaw comes it will bo sudden. Spring will ho skipped, and summer will begin. The weather will bo hot and forcing, and tho growth of tho wheat plant will bo rapid. Another thing seems to be pretty certain and that is that there will bo a big corn crop in 1S75. Corn is now bringing t> price that will iDBuro a large profit to the farmer, and hogs are high also. Thus thoro are two incentives to produce corn largely. If the crop should be so large as to force prices down, it can bo fed to hogs and made to pay a good profit that way.

Will you desert your gardens, orchards, vinoyards nod farms because you are in debt. I hear many of you protend failure and bankruptcy; sonic think tboy are shrouded with liens and that ruin stares thorn in the fr.co. God tnrned Adam out of tho garden under far moro gloomy cir cumstances. You never enjoyed such a habitation as be did. Tbo samo sun shines upon you that warmed Adam's field and heart. You have tho same dews and gentle rains to enrich the farrows of your field, you enjoy tbo melody of the forost songsters, you bavo the sumo fruits and Bowen, yon have the same seed time and harvest, you havo as loving wives, 'laughters and sons, and the same poster ity to labor for. I here would say to you retrench, reform, economize. Make all you cal;beioro you buy anything stud}’ for days to see if you cannot do without it Patched clothes are more honorable than those unpaid for. Stand to your plow like Stonewall Jackson did to his guns al Bull Run, umid gloom, dismay anti death. And like him, you will put to flight ull your adversaries, and God will recognize you as noble descendants ot Adam, and own you ns his people. Some Reasons for Diversified Farming. 1. Because under the present system the market is over-stocked wit It some pro ducts, and the price is correspondingly low, while right hero at our doors, ot iter farm products bring as much us in New York city, a great center of consumption and export. Diversity of cropping tends to equalize prices. 2. Becauso diversity of cropping means rotation, and under a system of rotation, larger crops can bo produced each year, and the fertility of tho soil will last much longer than when the same crop is sown year after year. 3. Becauso it is safer. Ho who stakes all upon a single crop, merely buys a tick et in a good lottery. Ifeverylbing proves favorable, bo gets a good thing and a largo sum of money all at onco. Bat if tbo crop proves a poor one, ho is in a cor respondingly bad condition. 4. It distributes the labor, and tho cash receipts also, more equally through tho year. Thus little bills can be paid as they bocomo due, and the long credit system discontinued. 5. Another advantage will arise from fewer purchases at tbo grocery, and greator variety in the homo fare.— Western Farmer. £STA correspondent of the Ohio Farmer calls attention to the effects of transplant ing on certain kinds of vegetables and other plants, and thinks tho pbylosophy of tho lh:r:g should bo looked into. Let tuce, cabbage, and celery, are, bo says, especially benefited by one or two remo vals when young. It is, ho declares, hard ly possible to have tho largest and fines hoads of lettuce, if the plants are allowed to grow without transplanting, oven though otherwise woll cultivated. Flor ists also find it of benefit to the form and flowering of many plants. tey-To revive wilted cuttings, Hearth and Home says: Mix three or foar drops of spirits of Camphor with an onnceof water, and keep their stems in this fluid for half a day or more, io a dark place, till they have entirely recovered. Cam phor water will also cause seeds soaked in it to (germinate more quickly, and in some oases restore vitality to those which have lost it by long keeping. M ADISON Sheriff’s Sales.
