Cole, Esq., of Wadesboro’, North Carolina : “ This county (Anson,) is a fine farming section, and is the only county in the State well adapted to the raising of Cotton. — Here we raise a large quantity for this sec tion of the union, and our planters are devo ting more care to the improvement of their plantations. The best manure for cotton is ashes. My mode for putting it on is this: I run a scutter furrow, then from a basket or box scatter about 35 bushels per acre in the furrow thus opened, and then with a dagon make the cotton ridge. I tried ashes and cotton-seed as a manure last year, in the same field, and used the same quantity of each. The ashes made far the best cotton ; it took an early start, looked green and fresh, whilst that planted on the ground manured with cotton-secd, looked yellow a long time, and never recovered the check it received at first coining up.” •----- - - - From the Kentucky Farmer. FOUNDERING. This disorder is produced by several causes. It is certain that the greatest part of all diseases, except in case of accidents, proceeds from the derangement of the stom ach, which may be compared to a still, that after having extracted all the substance from our food, distributes in each part of the human and animal body. If the func tions of the stomach arc arrested, from whatever cause, the whole body feels it, according to its predisposition ; this is cal led sickness, and is more or less dangerous, according to the weakness or strength of the natural constitution. The horse al though much stronger than man having been subjected to many of its evils by his owner; for in its primitive state he knew certainly very few disorders, if any ; hun ger, thirst, excess of labor, and above all, neglect contribute to all the disorders ofthis animal. We should never forget that altho’ some of the brute creation seem to have been formed to help and delight mankind, yet the abuse of their faculties is a great fault to say no more. In this as in many other instances abuse is punished by priva tion and loss. Moderate labor, good food and care will prevent many accidents, and keep a just medium between the state of na ture and the social order, into which the horse has been admitted : Ist. One of the causes of foundering is the exposure of the animal to all the chan ges of the weather, without either stable or shed in which he could be sheltered if he wants it. 2d. If after hard labor of any kind, and sweating,the horse is left in the rain, or even j n the sun without being rubbed dry, and ; poi Buffered to cool gradually. Founder peculiar to animals whose foot is en tirely in the hoof, it is the swelling and ob struction of the blood vessels in the interior of the hoof, sometimes in one foot only, more often in two, and even in the fore feet, or it attacks them one after the other ; when the hind feet are attacked, the weight of the bo dy bearing on the fore feet, and the horse cannot walk without much pain, and must ; not be urged to do it; it is then necessary j to separate from the others. Besides the ! external symptoms, there is a great heat in j the pastern, fever, distaste, and'costiveness. A suppression of perspiration, water drank to excess, sometimes on an empty stomach, during a long and hard ride ; eating too much corn or green grass, perhaps a dispo sition of the body, may be considered as the immediate causes of foundering. If there is much fever, as is generally the case, the horse must be bled copiously, and the blood received in a vessel ; so as to know both the quality and quantity that is drawn ; in jections must be given ; very little hay, no corn, and bran or meal in his drink ; the tipper part of the foot above the hoof shall be rubbed with strong vinegar and sifted soot, even make poultices of it, and change them several times in the day, (clay mixed with strong vinegar is excellent.) If the horse is shod, he must be unshod as soon as possible ; he must be purged with gentle medicines, this cannot be too much insisted upon, as harsh drugs are pernicious to man and beast, and wear out the best constitution. Such a treatment will soon cure the horse if done immediately, for like many others, it is easy to cure if taken in time, otherwise it may cause the loss of the hoof, and perhaps that of the horse, who is at least, rendered useless for a long time, if not forever.—To do every thing in time in sures to a farmer, and as horses are his prin cipal help, he will gain much by attending to them so as to remedy any of their disor ders as soon as he finds them out. SALT IN AGRICULTURE. Salt is valuable as a manure, and for the destruction of insects. It has been used to a great extent in England. In this coun try there has been less attention paid to the subject. The quantity to the acre is from five to ten bushels. We have been inform, cd by an English Farmer who has often known it to be used with success, that the usual quantities are about 500 pounds to the acre on grass land, and 700 on tillage. He knew a failure in a wheat crop in consequence of a large number of slugs in the ground. Salt.was applied to the land and immediately a large number of dead slugs were found on the surface ; and the air was so affected as to be offensive. The land was again sowed with wheat and pro duced a large crop the next year. T? d**??! damans is done to grass lands in some sections of the country. Sometimes many acres of grass arrf completely destroyed. In such cases a good dressing of salt would doubt less answer the double purpose of destroy ing the wormsand increasing the growth of the grass. An experiment could be conve niently tried at a small expense. In the London Farmer’s Magazine, one gives the experiments of a farmor, in the use of salt for destroying slugs, and worms, with which his wheat land was much in fested. He applied it to twenty acres at different seasons. He observes that “in every situation and at every time, the effect appeared equally beneficial. In the morn ing each throw could be distinguished by the slime and number of dead slugs lying on the ground ; in some fields it had been the means of preventing the total destruction of the crop.” He used about five bushels to the acre. He had not determined what season was best for applying the salt, but the state of the weather, and the time of day should bo regarded. The weather should be mild and moist, but not rainy. The land damp, but not wet. The salt should not be sown when the sun is shining, but early in the morning before sun-rise, or after sun-set. We suppose that these rules for applying salt have reference to its use when the crop is growing, for a direct application of salt in a considerable quantity to growing veg etables will kill immediately almost every kind. Therefore it should be applied to a growing crop with great caution, and with the most favorable circumstances, as above named. We would recommend to those who are not acquainted with the effects of salt on vegetation, to make experiments on a small scale when applied after the plants are growing, and they will soon witness its effects. Whether salt be used as a manure or for the destruction of worms, &c., it is best to apply it a few weeks before planting, that it may become spread evenly in the soil. Fine salt should be used, unless it be ap plied to the soil long before planting, as a large piece of salt might destroy a plant if applied to it.” Farmer's Journal. WEALTH. There seems to be but three ways for a nation to acquire wealth ; the first is War, as the Romans did, in plundering their con quered neighbors—this is robbery ; the 2d. by Commerce, which is generally cheating; the 3d. is by Agriculture, the only honest way, wherein a man receives a real in crease of the seed thrown into the ground, in a kind of continued miracle, wrought by the hand of God in his favor, as a reward for his innocent life and virtuous industry. Franklin. A recent case of absence of mind occur red at Savannah, which is vouched for by the papers of that city. A certain gentle man had made an arrangement the night previous to go out gunning on the morning of a specified day, and in order to have all things ready, he hung his powder-horn and shot-pouch on a window-pin, near the head of his bed. When the morning fixed upon arrived, he jumped out of bed, dressed him self in a hurry, and, as he supposed, slung his shot-pouch and powder-aorn over his shoulder. What was his consternation, when, arriving at the place of meeting of the huntsmen, to find that he had carried off his wife’s “ bustle” and “reticule” in mistake! The shouts of laughter with which he was greeted, may be readily imagined.
