<lai piece ol land pnt in our band* to
arorfc laat spring waa a field of tvrenty-oar
•even. which the oarnera wished to hare
a-w ia oate and needed to clover. The
taefcl had been cropped aeveeal ream
without manure. The aoil araa cf an
average fertility all over the field. A
crop of corn planted on it the previous
tear had made about aa equal growth in
jail parts, and all an poor that it war con
sidered not worth hushing, and waa fed
in the stalk, tla the farm waa a pile of
manure one year old, left from a cow
stable, which we were directed to pul on
thia field. The pile would have made
a root twenty or twenty-five such load*
a* wa buy lor a dollar a load. I esti
mated it to be worth fJV>. After the
ground had been plowed, we spread this
manure aa evenly aa ixanilile ever twelve
jirm on on* aide of the field, at an ex
ix-nae of sls for handling the manure.
The twelve acres manured yielded Did
biiahela, or 49 bushels to the acre ; the 9
acres unmanured yielded 180 bushels, or
20 buibela to the acre. The manure in
creased the crop 29 bushels to the acre,
or 80S bushels on the farm, worth 50
rents per bushel, or |lsl 59. The cost
ol preparing ground, seed, sowing, and
reaping was the same per acre on the
whole field. Ihe coat ot binding, draw
ing, and thrashing waa more on the
manured portion, but aa the straw was
twice as heavv we will let that halance
the extra work. The manure and draw
ing coat #bo; therefore fSO expended in
manure made an Increase In the crop el

season. In addition to thia the clover
made a good catch on the manured land
while on thq teat it hardly grew at all.
RslUst UmS Dairy Csss
Mr. Van Ilnien. a New Yoik dairymen
of experience and intelligence, says that
whea he thought of establishing a herd of
good dairy cows, he selected the calves
irons hie beat milkers and raised them
with great care, but so often met with
disappointment that he chauged his
tactics and procured an Ayrshire bull,
the calves from which nearly all proved
to be good milkers. He further remarks:
What we want ia to decide first what
qualities are desired in the stock which
we are to keep, and then get thorough
bred males that have thia character. In
breeding for dairy usee attention must be
mid to the pastures, to the kinu ol keep
ing and to the purposes in view. II butter
is the object, and the pastures are billy
aud the keeping generally at all below
really good, I do not suppose it would be
wise u> use Short horns. It might be
that grade Jerseys would be aa good as
any that could be choeen for tome situs
tiona. Ayrahiree would probably be bet
ter for general purposes, and the Holstein*
in some oaaee would no doubt be prefer
able to any other breed. What is needed
at firatia to decide upon Die requirement,
aud then got a male that comes nearest
to the choeen use. When this ia done on
all our farms we shall have much more
profit in all stack. It ia surprising that
farmers give so little thought tn this mat
ter, audit is plain that there ia room for
great improvement, and that it can lie
made almost without cost of monev.
1-et proper attention be given to tlio
matter, and we shall find auou the general
wealth much increased.
r*AM* Uprvata tor Kuril.
A oortrapondent of th Toroto Globe
writ**: “It is now upwards of 40 year*
Kinoo 1 tested th use of potato shoots for
seed, and I continued to do so for some
years aa an experiment, for at that time
my potato growing was confined to gar
dm produce. I had the buds carefully
picked from the tubers after they had
thrown out root* outside the parent
bulb; at the same time I had other
tuber* cut for seed in the usual way. I
planted three drills in the garden," side
by seed—one of cut tubers, one of sprouts
nd one of small whole tubers. When a
maturity or dally dug up three sulks
from each drill, counted and weight the
produce of each three, anti found that of
the sprouU fully equal to any of the
others, both in weight and numbera. The
second year 1 did the same, taking no
twins to dibble the sprouts, but scattered
them in the open drill* and covered
lightly. I went further, lor having
found a heap of fine sprouts on the road
--thrown over the wall by some sagaci
ous cultivator who had got his seed
poUtoee carefully turned and picked,
and had throwu away the vigorous
shoot*—l had some barrowsful gathered
up and scattered broadcast on a tew
vidgea prepared for she purpose, and
covered with mold out of the furrows.
The result waa most satisfactory. The
•prouta soon appeared over the ground,
aid the crop came to maturity much
earlier than that from potatoes planted
the aaue day. It must be obvious to
auyone who considers the matter that
once the tuber has generated the sprout,
it ia no longer of us*, for on digging the
crop the tuber—whole or cut—will fre
quently be found whole and detached
trom the roots ot the stalk. Why, then,
pick of! the first vigorous growth and
plant the tuber to produce a second and
more puny and sickly one ? Sprout* can
be planted much later than the tubers,
or, if at the same season, they will ootue
to maturity earlier, because they are so
much ahead ot the tuber, which, after
being planted, has to throw out a bud or
sprout.

Why cannot every former keep two
acres per head, of waste land under
fence tor a flock of ewes? My ex
perience is. that with the native sheep 1
can average three pound* of wool and
one lamb a year per ewe, without ac
cidents from doge, and not cost beyond
one dollar per head for keeping annually.
—Chr. So. Plantation.
If it coat only one dollar to sustain a
oemmon ewe, it will certainly cost no
more to support a pure-bred.
The common ewe* will average one
lamb per year and ao trill the pure-bred.
The price of a common lamb will not
reach beyood three dollars at the forther
est, but the pure-bred will find a ready
purchaser at from ton upwards to fifty
dollars, according to quality. If it pays
to raise common sbeep at ail. then, now
winch greater will the profit# he, if the
thoroughbred is substituted 1

An egg contain* more n itriment than
any other substanoe of the same weight.
At the same time the market price of
eggs is comparatively lower than that of
flesh. A pound ol eggs la also produced
at a leas cost than a pound of flesh.
Considering the importance of the poul
try products of this country, there is by
no means sufficient regard to them. The
stock of pnifitahly-productive poultry,
as compared with the whole quantity
kept, is small. As compared with the
whole, the number of hens that produce
one hundred eggs in a season, is small in
proportion. Yet one hundred and fifty
eggs are frequently laid by hens of Ute
improved breeds, and by common hens
that arc well fed and Kept. The pre
paration of eggs by a recent invention
for drying, or, as it ia called, “ crystitl
ixinir” them, a proems in which the work
is done by machinery, has very largely
increased the market for them. The dry
product is imperishable, aud, when
packed in tin boxes, may be shipped to
the most distant countries nr carried on
ships through the longest voysges. No
doubt this new use for eggs will iucrease
the deviand for them when the manufac
ture has become thoroughly established,
and that it will be a profitable business
lor farmers to keep belter poultry and
improve, so far as possible, their present
methods of keeping their fowls.
sbsrl-horns la Texas.
The Texas correspondent of the Ken
tucky Live Htock Record lias some in
structive remarks on Hhort-horn* in that
state from which we clip the following:
Every bull calf ol even the lowest
grade of Short-horns is eagerly taken
front the Texas breeder at good prices,
but new importations are not much
sought after.
A shipment of ninety-three head were
landed here last fall from Missouri, and
were driven through the country lor sale
by the way, and more than hall of them
died before thy could be disposed 01,
and nearly all that changed bands died
soon thereafter. Abe Van meter,of Clark,
brought out eleven head last winter, and
has lost six. Tho Talbutt Brothers have
lost two of the six landed here last
Christinas, while those that are left nr.,
by no means safe from attack at auy
time.
Kxpeticnoe has told us that ao ani
mal is safe until alter it has recovered
I rum this prevalent disease, and it is not
certain by any means that one recovery
exempts the animal trom lulu re sickness
and death. Those who buy ealves in
Kentucky to ship and sell in this state,
may expect to meet just such a market
as the aoove facts would indicate. They
will find slow sale.

Alfalfa ll mj for llH<h
About thirty head of hog*, constating
of thoroughbreds, graded and common
tule hogs noth old and youug, were shut
up in a small corral and fed on alfalfa
bay. They took to it pretty well after a
day’s starving, and seemed to eat a con
siderable quantity of it, eating leaves and
stalks when the stalks were fine enough.
They drank a considerable quantity of
water, and during the middle part ot the
day seemed satisfied and contented. The
young tule pigs first showed signs of be
coming thinner than the full-grown tules.
The grades still kept un a respectable ap
pearance ami thoroughbreds were moder
ately fot. This {went on for about two
months; then t hey all began to refuse to eat
the stalks at all and cleaued up the leaves,
which they did more for a living than
from fondness of the food. They showed
evident signs of becoming tire*'< of the
food. The young tule pies get to so low
a condition of vitality that it became
evident that a month or so more would
starve them to death. Grade pigs and
full-grown tule hoes were thin hut mod
erately strong. Thoroughbreds were
strong and moderately tat. However,
after keeping them on this feed for nearly
five months, we considered we have given
the alfalfa hay a very fair test and aniveil
at the fol'owing conclusions: That alfalfa
bay alone is no proper food for hogs,
either eld or young, when ted in the dry
state, and poor food even when soaked in
water before being fed; that, though pigs
will live on it for a considerable time,
they don’t grow; that only the hay cut
young and with very fine stalks and
plenty of leaf is at all fit lor food for
hogs. It might be led to advantage
when fed with corn or Egyptian corn,
punpkins, etc., and in such caste might
prove advantageous, but it require* more
bulk than a hog can find convenient to
take in order to find sufficient nourish
ment to keep him in growing condition.
Pigs are like men in that reepect; they
require more or lew concentrated food,
and the food must be such as contains in
it the constituents required to make fat.

go to build up their bodies in the several

President Hayes visited the Frederick
Go. Md., agricultural fair. We take the
following extract from his brief addrew:
“ The interest to be promoted by an
institution like this, is the most impor
tant single interest in on r country. If
'he farmer or planter is prosperous.
Every other interest finds advantage in
whatever promotes the agricultural in
terest, and if today, we may with reason
rejoice at the prospect of reviving pros
nerity in our country, it is very largely
because the agriculture of the country it
prosperous. Good crops and good prices
for agiuatllurai prudacls, make gsaal
tiara All aveaiMt of trade find their
gains ia the traaepxrUtxm of agricultural
product*. We come then to take part
in your fair, because it largely repress nu
to the country the agricultural inter- sts
ol ysHir own county Frederick, a* well as
that throughout the United Matee.”
Relslac assail aa* Laras Aalatsls.
Abundant experience, if such proof
were neossuary, -hows that there art
more profit in feeding the larger breeds
than there is with the smaller breeds of
animals whether for (us-at or milk. Of
routs* there are except ioos in this, as in
all general rule*—the small Jersey cow,
lorexaiHftle, which ia expected to produce
an exceptional product of highly-colored
and finely -flavored butter; hut this dosn
not effect the rule above stated. It is
only necemat-y to consider that when we
feed two animals ol seven hundred pound*
each, we have to supply the demand* of
two seta of breathing,circulating and mus
cular apparatus, which are considerably
more extensive and expensive than those
of one animal of 1,400 pounds. This is
true of every yiimai tluit we feed, from
the fowl and pig, up to the cows and fat-
U ! steers. Teu small Merino sheep,
weighing eighty pounds each will cost
much more to feed than for Cotawolda of
two hundred pounds each, or five of one
hundred and sixly pounds each. Be
sides the gain in feed, we have also a
large advantage in the less proportionate
amount of offal in the fewer iaige ani
mals than in the large number ot small
one*. Where Audi end milk ere the
objects in view, this consideration ought
to have great weight in the selection ol
stock to be kept. The choice, of course,
will be restrirte<l by the opportunities for
keeping the stock, for it will not pay to
keep -Short-horn cows upon a pasture
where only small active cattle can pick
up a living; but, where other things arc
equal, thia consideration should be well
weighed. Just now, there is opening
up a large opportunity for feeding stock
for beef, which many farmers will very
soon find a desirable one to seize upon.
In choosing animals for feeding them,
they will find it to their profit to select
such large breeds as the -Short-horn or
Hereford, where their locality admits of
it; and where it does not, they will cer
tainly labor under the disadvantage ol
preparing for market an article which can
neither sell for the highest price, nor can
be produced at the lowest cost. Further,
there ia another advantage in marketing
the largest amount of product iu one
package, ao tosi'eak, for animals of 1,500
to 1,000 pounds can be sent to market at
leas proportional coat than the same
weight in the form of animals that are
one-half or one-third smaller.— Amcri-xin
