>(0 FARM AND GRANGE.
. There are forty-eight granges in Bradford
/•ewurfy, Penn.
. Butter made in September and October
* 'fe the best for winter use.
l " National grange meets in Louisville
Oft the 17th of November next.
Offaere are said to be seventy thousand
connected with the Order of Pat-
Husbandry.
In the amended Constitution of the Na
tional grange, males, as well as females, arc
eligible to meuibership at the age of six
teen.
The State grange of Mississippi are earn
estly endeavoring to establish a college for
ths# benefit of Patrons, to be exclusively
under their control.
MfWhe farmers of Bcott county, lowa, an
‘Tittunce that they will market one million
bushels of onions this year. These will
bring them about $600,000.
The Wisconsin ! granges have already es
tablished forty-one co-operative associations
for selling goods and manufacturing, and
insufanee oom panics.
A Maine farmer says his experience has
convinced him that ten good merino sheep
can be kept on the same feed that would
> keep one cow—and are more profitable.
The way to make the Grange more uso
ful is to put more stress on the social and
intellectual features contemplated. Finan
cial benefits must follow in the wake of
improvements.
It is calculated that there are ten thou
sand horses suffering in some degree from
colds and sore throats at the present time
fa New York, the symptoms being precise
ly those manifested when the epizootic first
i fchoWed itself. The leading feature of the
present attack is a constant hacking and
coughing, with sore throat and a slight
running of the nostrils.
SPECItyC FOB THE CUT-WORM.
Spirits of turpentine poured upon reed
corn before planting, and thoroughly mixed
4>y stirring, so that all the seeds shall be im
■ pregnated with it, is a specific for the ter
•‘flble ravages of the cut-worm. Put one
’ quart of turpentine to a bushel of corn, in
stat which is sufficient, and
5 porn comes up two or three days quicker
‘■’When thus treated. Beside the scent of the
turpentine, Which can be detected for sev

:d’V 00»N CULTURE IN ENGLAND.
English agricultural journals contain nu
merous directions about the culture of
0 fern—a new crop in that country. Some
•arly-ripcning variqtips have been found
yrhicb, it is believed, will give a crop. At
W events, there need be uo difficulty in
•Securing corn of the. eaily sweet varieties
-far use while green. One important discov
3gr*or English friends have made; that Is,
|o bill (he corn, but keep the ground as
vjmpriy level as possible. The only effect ot
I'Mllteg in the damp, cool climate ot En
gland is to mulch the roots, keeping them
■till cooler and delaying ripening. Even
text hdt, dry summers ‘corn docs not
j/wXni earth drawn around the stem. If it
•bhus to dio good, it is only because it ne
rpMarily loowms the soil, allowing the roots
’fc» spread Udler. Corn needs as tropical
M it can get anywhere, and would
< generally tn benefited by drawing tire earth

AjfcOJVN CROP WITHOUT RAIN.
A correspondent of the Fanner's Vindi
cator says he last year, raised eighty bushels
of coni IO the were with but one rain,
which fell on lire Isiii ot June. He tells
<ifeW it done, RS follows: “I laid my
•Town three and a half feet apart, threw out
with a turning plow, ran a deep furrow
•with a bull •tongue in the water furrow, put
sixty bushels of cotton seed in the bull
loggue threw four furrows with
the turn plow, reversing '.he bed, pl aited
my earn very sImjUoW on the top of the
ridge, and cultivated slm’tow with short
•fcbltou shovel Ule firisX two plowings. Laid
.hy.with a turning plow, running shallow
•rarest the com, deeper in the middle of
tHs-hma. I then took a long bull-tongue
•ari &übsAlied by Tunning two furrows in
‘lb© middle of Ihe rows, leaving a small,
kt*M bed eight or ten inches deep. I tried
•■fhMedrtng oR-d>ff<rcnt pieces nt land, both

TNh is bub of them. F r farm
ing d«^s not <»aj ’ We can not '.•./.ateour- |
*c|rv,j. we wou I IW work in eompeli
tion with the world. Rude antiquated
methods, mere plodding, unskillful labor,
worn out unfertilized soils will not serve us
against science, skill, labor-saving imple
ments, and heavy manuring. On fertile,
virgin sods, the old, Hide wasteful system
may, for a while, give the farmer a living,
by robbing posterity, but in all the older
parts of the country we have got beyond
that. If we cannot manure our lands, sdopt
the best and economical methods of work
ing them, train and skillfully direct our la
bor and use, wherever practicable, improved
labor-saving implements, we shall go under
in “the struggle for life.”
Five bushels of corn to the acre, or one
third or one-fourth of a bale of cotton is not
a lemunerative crop, at any price for our
products that we are likely to get. If we
cannot do better, wc may as well “lay down
the shovel and the hoe” at once. It is the
same elsewhere. In New England, in New
York, in Pennsylvania, and even in the
great fortile West, there is the same com
plaint,—“farming don’t pay.” But good
farming does “pay” there, and it “pays”
still better here. Make a bale of cotton to
the aero—a great deal better than that can
be done —and from twenty-five to forty
bushels of corn—which is setting the figures
very low, again—and other crops in pro
portion, aud farming will no longer be un
remunerative. —[Rural Carolinian.
THE SHORT-HORN MANIA.
It is about sixty years since “the short
horn”—or as he is often called by disbeliev
ers in the enormous prices that be now
fetches, the “golden calf”—sprung suddenly
it to existence. At the commencement of
the present century there lived on the edge
of the county of Durham, in England, two
remarkable brothers, who, by slow’ and un
noticed steps developed out of the long
horned “Tees-water” the perfect specimens
of bovine symmetry which now attract the
admiration of all cattle breeders in England
and America, known as the Durham short
horns, and which brings such fabulous price
all over the world.
It would not be easy to conceive a high
er tribute to the memory of Robert and
Charles Coilling, the two famous Durham
brothers, who were the originators of the
short horns, than the fact that, in the third
generation after their death, a sale of forty
cattle, tracing their descent from theii illus
trious bull, Comet, and from his daughter,
Young Duchess, should attract cattle-lovers
from every corner of the British islands,
and also from the continent of Europe, no
leas than from the United States and from
Australia, yet such an event did take place
in August last, when the sale of Lord Dun
more’s short horns took place in Stirling.
Scotland, and when the enormons price of
four thousand five hundred guineas—about
$22,500 was paid for one bull, and when
the great sum of £26,223 was realized for
the forty head of cattle —about $3,275 per
head all round.
This should teach a valuable lesson to
our farmers, and it is this : Be sure that cure
bestowed upon the improvement of your
cattle will pay; and that intelligence and
care on the part of a farmer in attending to
his duties will have as great an influence in
advancing the reputation of bis country and
increasing its wealth as if directed in any
other channel.

MONEY MADE.
I desire to call the attention of all
those who owe me anything, that
their accounts and notes are now
due, and that I am compelled to
have money. We have been bless
ed with bountiful crops, and all
can pay who are so disposed, as I
will take corn, fodder, wheat, oats,
rye, cotton, peas, potatoes, pork,
and almost everything, in payment
of debts due me. So 1 hope my
old friends and customers will re
spond liberally to this call, for by
so doing they will save cost and
their gnod name at the same time.
I mean business, when I say that I
am compelled to have money. All
those who are indebted to the firm
of McAfee & Most nrart Übeir
accounts and notes at once. Those
failing to do so, or to make satis
factory arrangements, will certainly
find their accounts in the hands of
collecting officers.
I want to purchase 10,000 bun
dles of fodder and 1,000 bushels of
corn, for which I will pay goods or
cash to those not indebted to me.
I have now got, and am receiv
ing daily, one of the largest and
best selected stocks of goods ever
exhibited in North Georgia, which
I propose to sell very cheap for
cash or barter. I am determined
to sell as low as the lowest, as my
experience in business and facili
ties for buying are not excelled by
any in this country. We—l mean
myself and clerks —invite all the
children and ladies to call before
purchasing elsewhere, as we will
give all the children candy and
love all the ladies.
