Packing cotton—A New Inven
tion-
We have lately examined the
model of a new cotton press inven
ted and patented by D. J. W.
Hutchinson of Dauphin street in
this city, which appears to us so
great an improvement upon the
style ot press now in use as to merit
the widest publicity that can be
given to it. The main feature of
the invention is that cotton is pack
ed in hexagonal barrels instead of in
bales. The tube of the press is
of course hexagonal and opens to
admit the barrels. 1 he barrel is
then clamped to enable il to resist
the pressure which must be applied
and the cotton is thrown in at the
top of the tube; on the cotton is pla-
ced the head ot the barrel; and the
whole is forced into the bale by a
powerful screw with a hexagonal
follower. It will be seen that so far
as the source of power is concerned
the new press is similar to that at
present in use. which renders it
easy for a planter to adapt his pres
ent machinery to the new method.
Of course before doing so it would
be necessary to obtain Dr Hutchin
son’s permission; otherwise such an
act would constitute an infringe
ment of the patent.
The advantages claimed by Dr
Hutchinson for his press are, first,
the facility of packing a much lar
ger quantity of cotton in a given
space than can be done with the
press now in use; and, secondly, the
diminished danger of injury to tho
cotton from fire or water. Under
the first head Dr. Hutchinson claims
that a barrel having a capacity of
five hundred pints can be made to
hold five hundred pounds of cotton;
and that for every ton of measured
capacity in a ship he can place on
board lour such barrels, the wood in
each barrel to weigh sixty pounds.
This, with the five hundred pounds
of cotton in each, would make a ton
in weight. For instance, he claims
that a vessel ot one thousand tons
burden can be loaded with a cargo
of bands of cotton weighing, in the
a ag re gate, one thousand ions. It is
scarcely necessary to say that by
the present method no approxima
tion to this result can be obtained.
Ashes foe Wheat.—Ashes as a
fertilizer are almost wholly neglec
ted or allowed to go to waste by o»r
farmers. In many instances indeed
they seem to be ignorant of their
value, or if not ignorant too careless
to take the necessary pains to secure
any of them. During the winter,
ashes can be collected in large quan
tities, and farmers should do this for
the purpose of sowing them on
wheat soil. In my experience with
ashes, I have found them of great
value on different grains, but most
valuable when used on wheat.
Ashes are an active fertilizer on
wheat and even five, bushels per
acre will push it forward two days
ahead of that upon which none i3
applied. In some seasons when
hot and sultry weather prevails,
about the time wheat is ripening a
few days gained is worth half a crop
of grain.
The ashes strengthen the wheat
stem, giving it substance and solidi
ty; and develope the berry quicker
and better.
Ashes are also a preventive
against rust, and I have seen the
wheat upon which ashes were sown
free from rust; that upon which none
had been sown was rusted to the
drill row. have your ashes and try
the experiment next season.—You
will find it to pay you well to collect
all the ashes yon can get.—Far
mers can afford to pay as high as
20 cents per bushel for good uuleach-
ed hard wood ashes for farm U3e, not
only to put on wheat, but on corn,
oats and clover as well. I believe
they are the chdapest manure a far
mer can buy, as potash enters large
ly into all the grain and grasses that
are raised. Twenty bushels can
he sown to an acre with the very
best results. Ashes are also good
though a larger quantity should be
used. All around us large quanti
ties both of leached and unleached
ashes go to waste every year. These
should be relumed to the soil. Now
is a good time to collect them, and
I would advise all fanners to do so
and apply them to their fields.

Messrs. Editors—In my letter
of the 7ih of November, I promised
to give my method of cultivating the
Irish potato. The potatoes exhib
ited at the fair was cultivated as
follows:
The soil was what is known here
as valley land, with a little gravel
mixed: last year it grew clover,
which was turned under in March.
The land was plowed both ways
with a scooter or bull tongue plow 7 ,
not more than five inches deep.
The first week in April the potatoes
were planted as follows; the furrow's
opened with a turn plow (Peeks-
ville) five inches deep to the hard
soil, and all the loose soil thrown
out with a shovel, the futrows then
filled about two inches with a com
post of rotton chips from the wood-
pile, leached ashes, and a like ma
nure from the barnyard. The seed
planted was medium sized to the
smallest, the largest cut in tw'o and
the smallest planted whole. The
rows three feet apart and the seed
one foot in the *driil. The furrows
then filled and well tramped in with
rotten straw, then a little soil not
more than one inch deep-drawn on
with a hoe. In about two weeks,
just as the plants begin to show, the
whole covered with rotten straw
from tpur to six inches; that was all
the work until digging. I notice
when digging there were no potatoes
below where the seed was planted,
and most of the potatoes were on lop
of the ground under the straw, and
many of them several inches from
the hill.
From many years experience 1
am satisfied it is not best to break
land deep for Irish potatoes nor is
it best to plant from very .‘ich soil.
Break or plovi your land shallow,
plant shallow, manure well in the
hill with decomposed vegetable
matter, and mulch with straw or
leaves, and plant in March, and I
know of no crop that is more certain
or that pays better.
I have tried the following experi
ment for tlnee successive years
without a failure; that is, to raise two
crops in one season. The varieties
tried were the Early Goodrich, Ear
ly Rose, and the Early Harrison.
The first crop was dug in July, and
spread on a floor in tne shade, (one
hour of hot sun will rum Irish pota
toes) and after being out of the
ground two weeks, planted whole in
good soil, without any manure in the
hill. The second crop will not gen
erally grow as large as the first, but
give a good yield of nice potatoes for
winter use.
One half acre manured with Pa-
tapsco yielded 482 pounds.
One half acre manured with mix
tures of Peruvian Guano, etc., as
above, yielded 626 |m>uiu1s.
On-* half acre manured with com
post of hen manure, 150 pounds,
land plaster, 50 pounds, dissolved
bone, 100 pounds, salt, 25 pounds,
and rotted cotton seed (about ten
bashels,) yielded 5S2 pounds.
One half acre manured with Pe
ruvian Guano alone yielded 604
pounds.
One acre, or more properly 9 10
of an acre, which had been heavily
manured in the preceding fi ll with
stable manure, and 75 bushels of
cotton seed and to which 250 pounds
of Colquitt’s “Planter’s A No. 1”
were applied, yielded 2,854 pounds.
This experiment, which is the
most favorable report we have yet
seen in the agricultural monthlies,
would foot up in the aggregate as
follows:
Product of the 24 1-2 acres
27,397; what it would have been
without fertilizers, say at 375 pounds
to the acre, 8,188 pounds; excess,
19,209 pounds of seed cotton, worth
at4£ cents for the lint, $S4 40; cost
of fertilizers at. $15 per acre, $367
50; showing a cash balance for the
lint, $496 90, and say about thirteen
thousand pounds of cotton seed, at
whatever valuo may be placed on
them.

Small Farms.—Be content with
a small place entirely paid for, a
you have not the money to buy if
large farm. Do not allow that ea
ger and avaricious spirit to “own all
lhe lands that joins yours” to ruin
you. One of the curses of our ag
ricultural districts is the size of our
farms. Forty acres paid for, and
tilled, is belter, and far more remun
erative than four hundred under a
heavy mortgage, and only half cul
tivated. Where one man may suc
ceed by rashness in assuming large
responsibilities, hundreds fail; and
experience and observation will
show that the successful owners of
large tracts of lands, have usually
begun by small purchasers for cash
and by gradual additions as they
acquired wealth by industry and
economy.
Emerson gives reccij as .or proparing
this,powder for disinfecting and other
purposes. As a whitewash tor
walls, for protection against insects,
bugs, etc., lie says: “Put 3 ounces
of carbolic acid into 12 quarts of
lime water or whitewash. White
wash the walls of the poulrry house
well with this wash, and no* living
parasites will be seen—their death
is inevitable. A weak solution may
be made to wash fowls in; one part
of the acid to sixty parts of warm
water; let it cool, then dip the fowls
in until the feathers become thor*
oughly wet and the solution reaches
all parts of the body. Afterwards
place the fowls on clean, dry straw,
where the sun will reach them until
they are dr}'.
Another form in which it it is re
commended to use it, is a soap.
These soaps are for sale by various
manufacturers, and have a high rep
utation for cleansing animals and
the cure of skin diseases. A mode
of making this soap is as follows:
Dissolve 8 pounds common bar soap
in hot water, add 2 to 4 ounces ol
carbolic acid, according to the de
sired strength. Allow to cool as
usual in n aking hard soap. As
these preparations may be bought
ready prepared, and as carbolic acid
is by no means a safe article to keep
about the house, we would advise
persons to buy rather than attempt
to make them, except in the ease ol
whitewash, when they must get the
pure article and dilute it.
To Farmers.
Of all the dreary places, deliver us
from the dreary farm houses, which
so many people call home. Bars for
a front gate ; chickens wallowing be
fore the door; pig pens elbowing the
house in the rear ; scraggy trees
never cared for, or no trees at all;
no cheering shrubs; no neatness ; no
triinness. And yet, a lawn, and
trees, and a neat walk, and a pleas
ant fence around it, don’t cost a
great deal. They can be secured
little by little, at odd times and the
expense hardly felt. And if the time
comes when it is best toseil the farm,
fifty dollars so invested, will often
bring back five hundred. For a
man is a brute, who will not insen
sibly yield to a higher price for such
a farm, when he thinks of the pleas
ant surroundings it offers to his wife
and children. Farmers, beautify
and adorn youi farms; set out or
chards, shrubbery, shade trees ; lay
off fawns: build good fences ; put up
good gates, and paint or whitewash
your outhouses and fences.

Electro-Plate.—The art of elec
tro-plating has been brought to the
highest peifection in this country
and within a few years has been pat
ronized to an extent which show
its appreciation by our people. The
electro-plated ware is used in pref
erence to silver on account of its be
ing much cheaper and less liable to
attract burglars. In these respects
it has a decided advantage over
pure silver, and its use i* now very
general even among those who can
afford solid silverware. The busi
ness of electro-plating is not new in
this country, having been started in
a small way nearly fifty years ago
hut it is only ot late years that it has
assumed any gieat importance, and
now it ranks among the foremost in
dustries of lhe country. Large fac
tories are now in operation in all
parts of the country, each year add
ing to the number, and the consump
tion seems only limited by the ex
tent ot the production. This bus*
mess requires a very large amount
of skilled labor, and employs a corps
ot designers, which are kept em
ployed the year round at high wages,
to produce new and artistic designs.
This is rendered necessar) 7 by the
competition between rival compa
nies in the business, and has the ef
fect of producing very elegant wares
which cannot be excelled in any
country. The dealers in this line
report a very good business in their
wares for the year just closed, and
a prospect for a still greater increase
this year.
