Beiative Value of Feeds- We find the following very inter esting tables in an article written and fodder might be much more profita bly employed in sowing a crop of winter oats. Cherokee cut his acre of millet over four turns to feed, and tiie fifth cutting made a ton of fod der. Now, supposing each cutting, if cured, would have made as much as the fifth—one ton—he would hate saved Jve tons of hay from one acre— as much as we get from Jfty acres of blade fodder. An acre made rich and well set in lucerne, would be I still belter, because it will only re- , quire sowing once in a number of compiled by A. L. Browning, of Ala- : years> and mnJ cu , m „ ch e „ rli e r batna, for the Rural. Alabamian. land as often'as llic millet. The We reproduce them "m'nlyjo | common field pea, if planted early, may be cut twice. Common corn sown in drills two feet apart, and ploughed once, makes a large quan-> tity of good forage. Even crab- grass is cheaper and better than fodder. To prepare for this, the show the relative value of corn and oats. It will be seen that oats have a larger percent, of Hesh'Jonning and Jit-producing principles with a small er per cent, of heat-producing princi ples than corn. As the heat-pro- ducing principles are of comparative-1 land shouUI b ‘ c ‘ ve |! broken about ly little importance in a warm cli mate, and a low per cent, of them desirable in summer, oat* are superior to corn at all seasons, but especially for summer feed for stock. Our ex perience with the two feeds corres ponds with the resulttjf the analysis. We have invariably found our stock the first of May, to kill the weeds— well manured and harrowed. In ’69 we saved five two-horse loads of nice hay from three fourths of an acre. We hope some of our read ers will experiment and report. Forage Crtors.—For many years , it was my habit to raise a eonsuler- lo improve when changed horn corn a p] e quantity of corn for fodder for to oats and vice versa. This, and Uie fact that the cost of raising a bushel of corn is quadruple that of a bushel of oats has induced us to rely princi pally upon oats as a stock feed. my stock during the fall ami winter, and for my milch cows during the summer. Although lam looked up on as an old fogy among the pro ! gressive agriculturists, 1 have long been satisfied that the only way to We feed principally on oats for j improve our lands is to manure seven months of the year, commenc-j them ; the best way to get manure bio 1st of Anril i is to keep more stock, and the best 8 P : way to keep more stock is to raise We think the time is not ! ’at dis* plenty of food lor them to cat.

We invite the attention of our leaders to the very interesting arti cle by “Cherokee” which we copy from the Farm fy Home. If we can secure a better and cheaper substi tute for blade fodder we will have gained an important point in our farm economy. “Pulling fodder” is a tedious and troublesome work, and the utmost care will not always pre vent injury by showers of rain while it is being cured. Besides, we have always believed that the corn is materially injured by the removal of the leaves before it is mature—we believe i he corn loses as much as the fodder is worth. We hope some of our planters will test this by careful •xperiment this year- Let them lake two rows of equal length—strip the fodder from one and leave it on the other. Then when the corn is gathered weigh the corn from each row and the fodder that was cured from the one stripped. We predict that the corn from the unstripped row will not only be/<eovicr, but. up place, and I have found that one acre of forage corn gave me more and better feed for my stock in the summer and eatly fall than twenty- acres of the aftermath of the best meadow I have. 1 think, though, that I have struck a better crop than corn ; at least, for my land and sec tion of the country. 1 think it is bel ter. Last spring 1 got a bushel of millet seed (I think it was called Egyptian millet), and I sowed il on an acre of ground near my cow lot. I only tried one acre as an expert- ment; because I knew nothing about 179 j it but what 1 read in the newspa pers. I planted rny drill corn in a 4J 0 .j- ; field near it, intending not to be “off 044 with lae old love before I was on with the new.” My land in both fields is what is called a sandy loam, pretty rich, well prepared and deep ly broke. 1 spwed both the millet and the corn in drills, gave them one plowing, one working, with the horse cultivator and one light hoeing. 1 began to cut the millet early in June, aid kept cutting it continually to feed ten head of cows until theend of Sep- temlaer,during which time they ate very little grass, and were in as fine condition and gave as much rich milk as any cows in theccuntry. Besides this, after I quit using the millet, I cut, cured and put away fully a ton of first-rate fodder, equal to any hay I ever saw—and all fioui the one acre. I cut it over four limes to feed, and the fifth time made a ton of hay* An acre of my corn fed abundant ly, and kept in good condition a sim ilar number of stock from July until October ; but as l began using the millet fully four weeks earlier, and had a surplus of a ton of millet hay when the corn was all gone, I give the preference to the millet as a more abundant yield, and, therefore, cheaper forage crop. Cherokee. Etowah River, Ga., December, 71. A few days ago there was a Ger man examined tor a position in the Interior Department and he ‘could’nt speak pretty well English.’ He got on tolerably until the question was asked how near the sun came to the earth. It was a poser, and proved a Waterloo for him. He said, in huguislic gymnastics; “I don’t figger on dat. I no has der figgers. Anyhow, he not come so near dat I not make a gut clerk.— Ain't it?” But “lie” did come too near, and he did not become a clerk. [Exchange. A little boy in Chicago, who had been taught by his maiden aunt to pray for his father, was told one evening, while on his knees, that he must pray for hie mother also; whereupon the young hopeful inter rupted his relative with this Chica- goese vernacular: “Now look 4iere, aunty! Just hold your horses! Who’s running this prayer business, you or me ?” (From the Times and Planter.) Mr. Newman’s Experiment. Air. Editor:—Your experiment in. your paper of the 0th, places my Compound at disc mnt as compared with Bryan’s Compound and an other fertilizer (Zell’s). The reasons are very obvious. 1st. You plant a*I ihe plat in rows, which had 300 lbs. of superphos phate in them last year. This gives the nothing rows, Bryan’s compound and a fertilizer not having the same amount oF soluble phosphoric acid with mine, the advantage of a plen ty of that important fruit making principle, and renders mine that far at great disadvantage, inasmuch a3 it excels all fertilizers in that very element; the insoluble phosphate in the superphosphate of last year having become soluble in the soil by the the action of the vege table acids of ihe soil. In 1S6S 1 made a home superphos phate which I applied to cotton and resulted in 262 per cent, on invest ment. The next year, I planted the same row, and as against nothing, it resulted in 263 per cent, on invest ment. This fact destroys the whole eflcct of your experiment. The on ly way to test fertilizers as against one another, is to put them on stub ble ground, or on thin land, where fertilizers have never been used, not in rows already surfeited with one of the main elements of fertilization. 2d. In the experiment with 300 pounds per acre, Zell’s lias greatly the advantage of Ervan’s Sc PVndle ton’s, in the fact that, sine by side with it, was placed a row having al the rate of 3,000 pounds of stable manure per acre. No wonder that Zell’s beat the other two, when it had such a deposit to feed on, while mine was placed furthest from this bed of manure. Thus, while at 200 pounds each, per acre, where Zell’s had not such advantage, mine and Bryan’s both beat his, the thing is wonderfully reversed in the other experiment. This thing has been tested with me repeatedly. The past year 1 put at the rate ot S00 pounds per acre of my compouud, broad cast, in two rows, and the ad joining two rows were appropriated to Zell’s. The row next to the 800 pound rows made 246 oz , while the row farthest from it made just 200. On a stubble field, a perfectly equal plat of ground, I tested mine, side by side, with the follow ing fertilizers, at the rate of 100 lbs. per acre, viz : Dickson’s Sea Fowl, Wilcox & Gibbs’, Ober’s A. A. Mer- ryman, Ober’s Arnmoniated Super phosphate, Peruvian Guano, and Zell’s. Mine produced 914 per cent, on production, the others rang ed from 85.9 down to 11.4. On your plat as contrasted wtih mine, at the rale of 100 and 300 lbs. per acre, yours being in tue superphosphate rows and mine oh an oat stubble, the following exhibit is made : lbs Yours at U 0 lbs per a; re ine'd production 131 Mine “ “ ‘‘ uoii Yours “ “ Mine “ “ “ 559 This 13 a remarkable difference.

As, to comparison with Bryan’s Compound, any person inleie.sted in the matter, can see my experiments with home-made manures on pages 5 and 6 of my pamphlet. Also, the statements of several other gentle men, J. L. Culver, <>f this county; Judge James Lawrence, and J. 1. P. Atkinson, of Greene ; all of which show conclusively that commercial fertilizers in their hands have proven very different from your experiment, owing, no doubt, to the facts above mentioned. If 1 mistake not, you have unwit tingly done me injustice; also, in the price of my article, you put Bryan’s and Zell’s at cash, and mine at the credit price, which would change the figures from $4to S3 50 per hun dred tor mv Compound.
