The Vane of County Agricultural Societies-
The impetus which has been giv
en to agricultural improvement by
the Stale Society, the Colton Slate
Association of Augusta, and the oth
er societies of similar character
which have been formed in different
parts of the Slate, is undoubtedly
very great. They have set a good
example. They have induced our
people to think of something else
than the ruinous results ot the war,
the loss of their negroes, and the
“fantastic tricks” of the Radicals.
They have shown them if they will
only go to work, put their shoulders
to the wheel and push with a will,
they can get out of the slough of
despond into which they have fallen ;
that there is life in the old land yet;
and that we can be as rich and pros
perous as we ever were if we only
help ourselves.
We wish that every county in the
State had an active, energetic Agri
cultural Society, under the regula
tion and government of a plain prac
tical constitution and capable exec
utive ' officers, where the farmers
could meet regularly at stated inter
vals, and discuss all matters relating
to their calling, giving and receiv
ing valuable information, interchang
ing their exoerience, communicating
their failures and successes, pointing
out the causes of both—talking of
everything that relates to the farm,
the garden, and the fireside, and at
the same time cultivating closer and
more intimate relations with their
neighbors and friends, combining
pleasure and profit and acquiring a
strength in union which as individu
als they cannot possess.
Take up any copy of the Weekly
Tribune, of New York, look at its
agricultural pages, and you will see
there a regular report cf the pro
ceedings of the weekly meetings of
the American Institute Farmers’]
Club. Examine these reports for'
any one month and see what a vast!
number of subjects have been dis- '
cussed, what a mass of reliable and
important information has been im
parted, how thoroughly the mem
bers of this club are posted in all
that relates to their business, and
with what ease and plain practical
sense they tell what they know.—
One man wauls information on Tur
nip culture, and asks some questions
on the subject. One, two, three,
andlperhaps half a dozen, members
who know all about turnips from
practical experience, answer the
question. In the course of the dis
cussion, a new implement of hus
bandry is mentioned, and its merits
or demerits are immediately point
ed out by men who have used it
themselves, or have learned all
about it from neighbors who have
tested it. And so one subject leads
to another throughout an almost
endless range ot subjects, all inter
esting and instructive, discussed in
simple language, not in set speeches,
so that the record of the proceed
ings of this club during a year con
tains mention of almost everything
upon which the members can de
sire information, from the most im
portant to the most trivial.
This is the model we would lake
for our County Agricultural Socie
ties. Of course we could not es
tablish them on as large a scale, nor
could they meet as often as that in
New Yoik ; but with very little ex
pense of money or time they could
meet in the evening every fortnight
or every month, and discuss freely
among themselves the matters upon
which they severally feel an interest
iu relation to Southern Agriculture,
have their proceedings recorded by
some member who has the pen of a
ready writer, and thus collect a mass
of valuable information, from which
they could from time to time furnish
interesting extracts to the agricultus
ral press, which would be very glad
to publish them.
Now the isolated farmer is liable
to be duped by all the humbugs
which are daily presented to de
fraud them. He has no access to
statistical information of crops, pro
duce markets, etc., except that fur
nished by those whose direct inter
est it is to deceive him. Let an ag
ricultural society be established in
his county, and the peddler of pat
ent implements, double-detonating
sell-acting fertilizers, six-horse pow
ers that can be run with one mule,
corn that matures in a month, and
cotton seed that produces several
bales to the acre and a staple six
inches long—will find his occupation
is gone, and that the farmers are not
such fools as they' look. There is no
more potent agency to explode hum
bug than such a club. Then, being
in the receipt of authentic statistical
information as to the condition of
the crops and the state of the mar*
kels, they can regulate their plant
ing operations and the sales of their
produce with a knowledge of what
they are doing, and not drive along
blindly as now, depending solely on
information furnished by speculators
in, and manufacturers of, the very
articles which planters produce.
It is not the annual show, the
great crowd, the fast horses, the
number and variety ot articles ex
hibited, or the premiums—although
they have their advantages and do
vast good—which constitute the val
ue of agricultural societies, but ii is
the spirit of emulation, of improve
ment, of enterprise anc| enquiry
| which they generate ; it is the com-
'< binaliou and attrition of intellects di
rected to a common object ; it is the
combination of interests, which
make them so beneficial, so essenlial
we would say, to the enlightened
success and real prosperity of an
agricultural community. Doctors
and lawyers have their conventions,
merchants and manufacturers have
their unions, operatives have their
leagues, every other class has its
machinery for combination of inter
est lor its protection and advance
ment. Agriculturists alone—the lar
gest, most important, and most pro
ductive of all classes—are segrega
ted and divided—going it alone, and
being duped on all hands, taxed to
death, swindled systematically, and
bamboozled generally by all other
classes.
If every county has a live Agri
cultural Society, in which the far
mers take an active interest, and if
these county societies put them
selves in close relations with the
Slate Society, and with the Agricul
tural Societies of other Slates, the
farmers will soon get to be as smart
and as well informed as any other
class of the community, and they'
will soon cease to be overseers for
foreign employers at shilling wages.
Let our farmers, then, make a
beginning, set the ball in motion.
You may commence with a few
members, but you will soon find
that you will grow morally and nu
merically". Let these County Soci
eties join the Stato Society, send
delegations to its meetings, and par
ticipate in its proceedings, and the
agricultural interest will soon be-
come the power in the land lo the
advancement not only of the agri
cultural community, but of all oilier
classes who desire an honest gov
ernment, good laws, economical ex
penditures of the public money, and
the prosperity of the whole people.
ClNCINNATUS.
Give Water Freely.—Horses
and oxen at work need water often.
The ploughman carries his jug ot
water, or leaves his team to rest
while he goes lo the house for a
drink. But the team works harder
than the driver, and needs drink as
often ; yet many teams are taken
out early in the morning, to the prai
rie field, where there is no water ex
cept in the driver’s jug, and work
ed five or six hours before they can
get a drop. Is it any wonder that
they are injured by drinking too
much when they are taken to the
spring at noon ? As an act of kind
ness lo the horses and oxen that
serve man so faithfully, ami as a
matter of economy, we recommend
that in cases where water is not in
or very near the field in which the
team is at work, a tub or cask should
be furnished, and filled with water
as regularly" as the driver’s jug.—
Th is, with a bucket, can be set in
the wagon, and the team should be
permitted to drink once every half
day, and oftener if the weather is
warm. If every one adopted this
plan, we should hear no more of
“water founder.” The teams would
be more vigorous and hardy, and
perform more work for their owners.
Grain Binder.—Among the new
inventions is a grain binder. This
invention relates to a new attach
ment for binding grain on the har
vester immediately after it has been
nut, and without any more attention
than is necessary to throw the twist
ing and binding machanism into and
out of gear. A band gatherer and
twister is used, which takes the
straw from the sheaf and forms it
into a band. This twister is a sli
ding carriage, which, by and during
its longitudinal movement, first pulls
ihe straw From the sheaf, and then
feeds it back during the winding of
the hand around the sheaf. The
twister contains a rotary shall which
twists the straw into the band while
pulling it from the sheaf. A pivot
ed cradle in which the sheaf is de
posited during the entire band ma
king and winding operation, is also
employed. This cradle holds the
sheaf m line with the shaft of the
twister, while the band is being
made, and carries it at right angles
thereto, to let the band be wound
around the sheaf. The cradle is
provided with a claw frame or pair
of tongs for retaining and finally re
leasing the sheaf.
Beggar Lice Plant as a Innovator of Land.
Editors Southern Cultivator.—1
have noticed several articles on ren
ovating lands—let me add another
brief one. If grown up in broom
sedge or fennel, clean and burn them
off’, and plant as if you intended to
make a fortune—-if any fertilizer is
at hand administer freely. Till your
land properly, and at last plowing,
sow in beggar-lice, and permit it to
seed, before turning stock thereon.
Till the same field annually, and in
a few years, your land will be whol
ly restored. There is nothing yet
known that will restore land in a
year or two, except the administra
tion of vast quantities of manure. In
the course of three years, I have
known land wholly restored bv this
weed; also land that would not
make cotton twelve inches high,
grow it five feet high. It is not only
an excellent renovator, but undoubt
edly makes as good forage as ordi
nary hay, if cut when heading. Try
it renovator and give us results.
