•ra solicited from our friends tbrougbout
the country. Or any interesting facts, ex

The science of agriculture opens a large
fleid to the intelligent and inquisitive mind
from which to gather faets, by experiment
and otherwise, and which will be safely
garnered if sent to ns. There is scarcely
an observing man that does not have good
ideas stored away, that will be of no bens

The Sweet Pelaio— But Mode of Collnre.
The Iiish potato, though more gen
eral in us use and cultivation, is far
from equaling in flavor and delicacy
this favorite production of the South.
Indeed, eaten with butter fresh from
rhe churn and pure eweet milk es an
addenda, it constitutes a dessert fit for
the repast of a king.
Numerous varieties of this valuable
esculent abound. Among these may
be estimated the white yam, pumpkin
Spanish, white Spanish, buck potato
with red skin and yellow heart, early
red with with white heart, brimstone,
yellow in and out, and red negro killer.
Of these the white yam and pump
kin Spanish keep the best, while the
negro killer and buck are the most pro
lific, especially upon poor land.'
The leaf and vine of the negro killer
are very large, and the “slip,” from its
toughness, easy of propagation. On
ihe contrary, the early red bears a very
small vine with a scalloped leaf, and
can he raised to perfection by the 4th
of July. It is very dry and mealy in
substance, and is said to be a highly
nutritious and innocent food for chil-
riret.
On the whole, for market and table
purposes we prefer the yam, which
when fully matured and properly
baked, is almost covered with the su
gar or syrup which exudes horn the
surface during the cooking process.
In planting the sweet potato, it may
not be generally known that the eyes
are chiefly clustered together at the
two ends of each tuber.
The practice of cutting these off'
before bedding or planting is very
detrimental. Experience proves that
but few of the eyes germinate save
itiose at the end. This can he shown
by plaining the centres of the potato in
u patch to themselves.
We cannot pause now to debate the
rationale of this truism.
It may be laid down as an axiom in
sweet potato culture, that a soil thor
oughly pulverized and enriched is a
preiequishe to success. To this we
may add the necessity of keeping the
plants entirely free from weeds and
grass, at every stage of their growth.
Corn and cotton may languish and
recover for want of work, but the sweet
potato never. The very process ol
removing the grass by the hoe or hand
breaks oft thousands of root-bearing fi
bres, and ruins the yield of the crop.
To ensure an abundant harvest, let
the earth be well trampled by stock, or
plentifully manured broadcast with
stable scrapings or cotton seed during
the winter, and then thoroughly sub
soiled and broken up.
If bedding is to be resorted to, the
potatoes can be placed in oblong beds
about four feet wide without cutting
and nearly touching each other, early
in February.
After setting them thus, cover four
inches deep with warm stable manure,
and finish off with moist earth. The
beds should be protected also by a
Southern exposure and tht means be
kept at hand for covering them when
frost is expected.
If the season be dry they should be
occasionally watered to expedite the
early sprouting of the tubers.
When propagated from the potato
cutting, planting should be delayed un
til the latter part of March, to prevent
dry rot during the slow process of ger
mination. The method may be thus
briefly described :
Upon ridges four feet apart made
with either hoe or plow, trench deeply,
and deposit the potato, cut in two
pieces only, at intervals of eight inch
es. Then add a covering of well rot
ted stable or lot manure, or killed cot
ton seed, and cover deep to ensure
moisture.
The great enemy to a stand is dry
rot and the mischievous crow—though
the latter pest is chiefly confined to the
seaboard. If the high March winds
displace the light soil, or dry the eatth
down to the cutting, the potato will
perish and never come to the surface.
A good plan therefore is to cover very
deep, and then scrape off and break
the crust about the time the plants
make their appearance.
Experience would indicate, however,
that the drawer pulled from the hot
bed, is the most certain and least
troublesome method of propagation.
The cultivation in both instances is
tlie same though the sprouts, when
dipped in thick mush made of water
and well rotLed manure, which adheres
to the roots, can be transplanted in al
most any season. Very wet weather,
followed by hot sun, is more fatal to
ihe plant than drought, when the above
precaution has been taken.
The after culture should consist in
simply drawing earth to the plants
once or twice, aiul sedulously destroy
ing all grass and weeds before they
take root.
About the middle of June another
crop of potatoes can be raised from the
same vine, by the use of long or short
slips. In the former, after thorough
preparation-and the formation of ridges,
the tops of which are {educed to a
Smooth level, let two or three vines be
laid side by side s<* as to touch the
ground at all p finis.
Then, at twelve or fifteen inches in
terval cover them with several hoefuls
of earth and pack firmly. This will
leave several inches of the vine expos
ed between each of these hills, from
which shoots and sprouts put forth,
which very soon cover the whole sur
face. Under these (fills the tubers are
formed in great abundance from the
little threads which shoot from the cov
ered joints of the vine.
When short slips are used, these in
lengths of about twelve inches are
pressed into the earth with a forked
stick about four inches deep, and eight
inches apart, ami take root readily it.
wet weather.
One hoeing, plowing and bedding is
sufficient in the cultivation of the slip
crop.
It is a curious but well authenticated
fact, that tubers grown direct from the
cutting, are only fit for fall use. They
cannot be preserved through the win
ter. Those on the other hand reared
from the drawer and slip, can be kept
under favorable circumstances for
twelve months.
It should be remarked also that upon
no other crop is a top dressing of ma
nure during its growth more Deneficial
and salutary in its effects.
Of the harvesting of the sweet potato,
and its preservation and value as food
for stock, we propose to treat in a sub
sequent number.
The Selling Hen.
After the hen has been setting seven
or eight days it is easy by a careful ex
amination of the eg£9 to see if they con
tain chickens. This is best seen at
night. Take a lighted candle or other
bright light to the fowl house, and a
basket with a little straw to receive I he |
eggs. Put the hand gently under the;
hen and take out an egg or two. Shade ;
the eye from the candle with the left i
hand, making a ring by bringing the j
thumb and forefinger together. Hold j
each egg against this ring, so as to al- I
low the light to shine through the ceil- i
ire of the egg. Those - egss that have i
chickens will nppr-a* - perfieetiy dark. ;
except a clear space at the larger end.
Those that are clear and that look as it
they were filled with melted wax thro’
which the light can shine, are useless
and should be taken aiwav. When all
the eggs are examined the good ones j
should be immediately replaced under!
tlie ben. Now the advantage ol setting'
two hens on the same day is, that il'j
many of the eggs n:e clear, the whole !
batch can be given to one and a fresh I
lot UV the'other. After the hen has]
been setting twenty days some of the
chickens begin to chip the shell. On !
this day the hen should not be disturb- !
ed. On the twenty-first day, or three j
weeks alter the eggs are put under the j
hen, all the eggs will be hatched.—
Some take away those first hatched
and put them in a basket with flannel
by the fire. This is a very useless j
plan, as Unlit hen* and chickens had j
belter be left alono. If not .disturbed i
the hen will not leave the nest till the. j
twenty-second day ; and then all the
chickens will be found quite strong!
and able to run. On no account should j
the chickens be crammed -with- food,'
until they are about thirty hours old,'
since they do not require any other]
nourishment than the yolk of the egg'
from which they are hatched. This!
passes into the inside, and nourishes j
them until they are .sufficiently strong;
to run about and seek their food.
The most suitable food for young j
chickens consists of wheat grits or oats j
coarsely ground, but their diet should
be varied as much as possible. Coarse
oat meal mixed into a crumbly mess ■
with milk or water, chopped hard boil- j
ed eggs, or curd, are \ery useful; but
the food on w hich young chickens j
make the most rapid and healthy pro-J
gress is the supply of grubs and insects, ;
small worms, ant’s eggs, and other an
imal substances that the heri obtains j
by scratching. Some say tint hens;
roam too much when not cooped, and j
weary the chickens, -but if tlie hen is :
well fed there is no danger of her wan- ‘
dering so far as to tire the chickens.
This is the case with the Brahmas and
large breeds especially.
Hints for Farmers.
It is said there are now four times]
as many cattle in Texas as there were
before the war.
A tew pieces of horse-radish root j
placed among pickles, will prevent
scum from gathering on the mp of the j
vinegar.
An invention has been brought for- j
ward in England by which, it is claim
ed, bread can be made directly from :
the grain without grinding.
A correspondent prevents his books
from becoming mildewed by applying
spirits of wine to the backs and covers,j
with the feather end of a goose quill.
A writer in the Mark Lane Express j
thinks it is possible to make beet-root
sugar so cheap as by and by entirely
to crowd colonial sugar from ihe mar
kets of Europe.
An English farmer thus gives his j
condensed conclusions about guano:
Powder it, mix with plaster, apply
broadcast; if used in the hill or drill,
mix largely with loam ; 16 pounds of!
it are equal to a load o! barn-yard ma
nure.
Vattel, in his Veterinary Pathology,!
gives the varied pulses of our domestic 1
animals as follows : “Ducks and hens,.
140 per minute; rabbit, 120; eat,110i
to 120 ; dog, 90 to 100; goal 72 to
76 ; sheep, 70 to 79 ; oxen, or cows,
35 to 42 ; horse, 32 to 38.”
Al least one instance is recorded
where a gentleman saved a tree that
had become split at the fork by putting ;
in an inch and a half wooden peg, aiul
wedging it at either end.
Carrige tops and cunning, kept soft j
with neats foot oil, will not crack. Pat
ent leather should never he used about ,
