SOWING AND HEAPING.
Sow with a generous hand :
Pause not for toil or pain;
Weary not through the heat of summer,
Weary not. through the cold spring rain
But wait till the autumn comes.
For the sheaves of golden grain.
Scatter the seed, and fear not,
A table will be spread ;
What matter if you are too weary
To eat your hard-earned bread ;
Sow while the earth is broken,
For the hungry must be fed.
Sow —while the seeds are lying
In the warm earth’s bosom deep,
And your warm tears fall upon it—
They will stir in their quiet sleep ;
And the green blades rise the quicker,
Perchance for the tears you weep.
Then sow ;—for the hours are fleeting,
And the seed must fall to-day
And care not what hands shali reap it,
Or if yon shall have passed away
Before the waving corn fields
Shall gladden the sunny day.
Sow : and look onward, upward,
Where the starry light appears—
Where in spite of the coward’s doubting.
Or your own heart’s trembling fears,
You shall reap in ioy the harvest
You have sown to-day in tears.

Mr. Editor: Wishing to contribute a
mite of practical and useful knowledge
to the fruit growers of southern Georgia, I
seek to do so -in th^Agricultural depart
ment of your papain the shape of a
RECIPE FOR APPLE AND OTHER FRUIT TREES.
Take soft soap, that which is made from
potash or wood ashes, and without dclut-
ing it, apply with a paint brush, rag,
sponge, or otherwise to the body and
branches of apple, and other fruit trees.
It will immediately to some extent, and
in a few days it will expell all insects,
destroy all eggs, larva,j»feepa, or worms.
And in a few wecks./wl.en done .in the
fk
spring of the year, s/ry March cause a heal
thy, vigorous condition, causing the bark
on apple trees to become smooth, turning
every part of the tree* where the applica
tion is made beautiful!^ green and glossy.
This application should . be made in
March and September, in Middle and
Southern Georgia.
I do not claim to be the discoverer of
this recipe, I have seen it published sever
al times, but not having much faith in it
did not lest it, until this spring ^having
heard a gentleman recommend it as the
best remedy to prevent Habits from peel
ing apple tAes, (it .will effectually prevent
their
And knowing ^hc costic qualities of
soft soap, and liavmgJfc^Lirmle orchard six

were ruined by the deposit or some insects
upon the upper body, and all the branches

is deposited upon trees ; chiefly upon the
branches in the latter part of the Sum

many trees they are so thick that it may
be said, the tree isjsliingled with them,
and if not removed In the course of two
years destroy the tr<*. Under these cir

soap made from woodXudfe (about the con-

over the whole bod^Cahd branches so far
as I could see aiwof these deposits.; and

FOR THE REC.'RDER.
In the Country, June 7, 1S59.
Messrs Editors: Blackberries are now
ripe, aud as your lady readers would be
pleased, probably,.with the following re
cipes, which I haMpftricd and found to be
good, be so kh^^as\to publish them for
their benefit. * Yours &c.

TO MAKE BLACKBERRY WINE.
To every gallon of berries, add one gal
lon of boilii^j water, and permit them to
stand 24 hovaAF—then strain oil", squeezing
the berries Jell—this imparts -a beautiful
color to theiwine. To every gallon of this
juice, adclwo and a half pounds of good
brown sugar, and .put into vessels until
fermentation takes place. After fermen
tation, pour off, and add a little loaf sugar
to clarify it. Tnen seal up in bottles, air
tight. It will b\rg^y «sc» in three
months.
plowing, planting, or hoeing, which 6tock
is sold at high prices, from a prominent
feature in the husbandry of the best man
aged farms. Until quite recently a farmer
might purchase twenty-five young mare6
for $2,000, and a superior male of the
Morgan stock for $1,000 more. These
breeding animals would pay for their keep
ing in light work on the farm ; and subsis
ting on pastures in spring, summer and
autnmn, and cutting their own hay by the
use of mowing machines, for winter con
sumption, the labor of man required to su
perintend them is reduced to a mere trifle.
Yet twenty fine young horses to be sent to
market every year, so soon as the colts be
come four or five years old, will produce
an income of some three thousand dollars
from this kind of stock alone. The paren
tage of “Blackliawk” was nothing extraor
dinary, although he brought to his owner
from the sale of his blood, over forty thou
sand dollars before lie died. “Hubback,”
the progenitor of the best Short-horns that
England has produced, “was a chance calf
belonging to a poor man who grazed his
cow on the sides highway.’ Prof. Low of the
University af Edinburgh, in his admirable
treatise on the “Domesticated Animals of •:
the British Islands,” page 3S2, says “lie-
is generally regarded as the father of the |
improved Short-horns.” Poor Mr. Wais-
tel’s street calf lived to make ample for
tunes for the brothers Robert and Charles
Colling, and give them an imperishable
fame as the most successful improvers of
neat cattle that the world lias ever produc
ed. Mr. Jonas Webb has -at this time a
few male sheep that let for over twelve
thousand dollars a year. His income from
this source lias been increasing for twenty
years, lie lias hired out a single sheep
for twelve hundred dollars a season.—
“Blood” is a costly commodity in England;
and it is by no means cheap in this country
as will be shown hereafter.
Some may fail to see the connection be
tween the improvement of live stock
and the improvement of farming lands;
yet they are almost inseparably blended.
Good keeping the year round implies the
production of much rich manure, as well
as of superior domestic animals. It im
plies rich wheat corn fields, as well as
excellent pastures and meadows. It
makes both vegetable and animal vitality
do their best for the farmer with the min
ium of human labor. The skillful husband
man subdues Nature, and makes her liis
servant, by simply studying and obeying
her laws. Nature gives him not two blades
of grass where one grew before, as in the
days of Cato * ml Cincinnatus, but luxu
riant herbage on every square yard of a
a thousand acres, where only briars, thorns
and sedge were seen before.

The Guano Trade of Peru.
The government of Peru sold, from
Chincha Islands, in the year 1S59, guano
to the amount of 200,709 tons. At the
ports of Europe and America, ■where it
was delivered, it brought about fifteen mil
lion dollars : and, deducting three million
for freight, leaves the government and its
agents an income of twelve million from,
the sale of this extraordinary manure.—
The average freight last year was 11 dol
lars a ton ; it is now ten dollars or less. At
one time the freight ran up to thirty dol
lars a ton.
The Lima Comescia gives the amount of
guano shipped in 185S, as folllows :

A few days ago we were in the office of
e Albany Cultivator, whose senior edi-
r and publisher has been at bis desk
irty years toiling for the advancement
American agriculture. While Mr. Tuck-
rejoiced at the remarkable progress
rdo by some, be said, in substance, that
had become a convert to the views so
rly inculcated by the writer to the effect
it American soil is every where being
poverished on this continent. The
id is plundered, not treated in a friendly
irit. Tillage is made a system of war-
re, as when a hostile army is quartered
an enemy, and delights to eat out his
bstance. Planters and farmeis become
some degree, migratory like a swarm of
custs, which cannot remain long in one
acc without starving. What is the
medy 1 There is no remedy save an
rrease of thought, and increase of knowl-
ge, and an increase of true wisdom, in
e community at large.
The five preminm farms in New York,
ferred to by the South Country man, con-
in 1103 acres, including woodland as
jll as that wider improvement; and the
;gregate annual products sold therefrom
lount to $35,560. The cost of all the
bor expended thereon is $3,44c. In what
iy do - every hundred dollats of farm
irk operate to yield over one thousand
liars in marketable crops, without ira-
verisbiug the soil ! Improved live
>ck, kept on rich perennial grasses that
»w from year to year without le-seeding,
At sixty dollars a ton, which is less thau
the average cost of this guano to Ameri
can farmers, they have paid 83,075,ISO for
the article consumed last year. Inferior
guano, from other places, probably cost
them as much more. These special fertil
izers are far from being perfect manures ;
although, under a wise system of farm man
agement, they will contribute largely to
the resources of the cultivator. A fail-
portion of the plants grown by the aid of
guano should always be given to the soil,
to increase its vegetable mould and soluble
mineral elements of fertility ; otherwise,
tillage and severe cropping, notwithstand
ing the use of guano, will in time consume
the mould or organic part of the soil, and
remove its soluble silica, lime, magnesia,
potash, soda and chlorine, to the serious
detriment of the ground for agricultural
purposes. Good stock manure supplies
the materials to form rieh mould and the
soluble minerals above named. It is there
fore a fertilizer for all time, and all places.
All agricultural plants decaying on the
earth yield precisely the same substances
to enrich the land as stable manure.—
Hence, perennial grasses grow for ages on
commons and prairies without impoverish
ing the soil, no matter whether animals
consume the herbage and leave their drop
pings on the land, or the grass rots wheie
it grows.— lb.
When to Prune Apple Trees,—A far
mer in the Chester County Times says :
“Many farmers have, I think, a wrong
idea as to the time of pruning their apple
trees, saying it is of little consequence
when the tree it pruned, if it only needs
pruning. This, I am ready to say, is a
sad mistake for all seasons when the sap
is down, is entirely wrong. The first or
second week in June is the only fit season
for pruning the apple* tree. Then the sap
is in full flow, and the wound made by cut
ting off a bough begins to heal and grow
over immediately.” We agree in this
view, and the system can be applied to
pears as well as apples. We pursue it in
relation to pears, to some extent annually;
and we are cognizant of the results upon
the apple, in several instances aud know it
to have been in every case a perfect suc
cess.
Useful Receipes.—To remove lice on
cabbages, nothing, perhaps, is better than
to pour over them cool soap suds, from a
watering pot or otherw ise, once a week, or
as often as washing is done for the family.
This practice will not only destroy lice,
(the aphis) but will greatly promote their
growth.
To Brown Coffee.—Coffee should-be
browned gradually, and only to a light
chcsnut brown, so that when it is ground, it
will be lively and fly around the sides of
the cup.
Cure for Sweney.—1 ounce laudanum;
1 do. camphor ; 1 do. spirits of hartshorn ;
1 do. spirits of turpentine ; 1 do. castile
soap ; 3 ounces alcohol ; 1 gill sweet oil.
Put the above ingredients in a suitable
bottle W'ilh a good cork; and rub the part
affected twice a day for a week or more,
and a cure will generally be attained.
To Keep Hams for Summer use.—Tie
them securely in paper, cover closely with
ashes. This keeps them sweet, and pro
tects from all insects.

ence in the sale of it for the last six years, I am
prejared to say there is no better, and I think it
must soon supersede all Liniments of like charac

Ai.bant, May 21,1858.—Being recently severely
afflicted with an attack of Rheumatism, I procured
a bottle of the above-named preparation, and was
entirely relieved from the disease in a short time
by a few applications.
I make this voluntary statement for the benefit
of the public, and from a sense of gratitude to Dr.
Allen. It may be, and doubtless is, by many who
have never tried it, called a quack medicine ; but
if quackery always gives as certain and speedy re
lief as this preparation did, then I am trom hence
forth a convert to quackery. Henry Morgan.
