THE STOCK LA IK
Ed. Journal The question of
fences is i ecoming to be a very e
ri.vis one. especially in that part of
nur Slate known a* iho main oot
-0 region, ami particularly in Har
ris county. Every day’s observa
tion reveals the fact to ua that the
fences around the farms generally
in our county are inaiiflieient in
protect the crops from the intru
sion of stock left to run at large,
and proof almost equally convinc
ing m furnished that the fences
ofthe county will year after year
■become a less barrier to tbee
depredation, we pay this from
the fact that rail splitting has al
most ceased m our land—it is al
most considered a disgrace amofig
the main wonting class to be
caught with a maul and wedge, and
onlv by long continual persuasion
and exorhi'ant pay can they be in
duced to engage in this degraded
employment Again, there is a,
real scarcity of suitable timber for
making rails genera ly in the coun
ty, ami in some places there is not
a rail tree to be found. The far
mers for a good while after the war
could and did get along right well
notwithstanding the scarcity of
timbei and the difficulty in getting
what be did have split into rails.
While be did have control of the
•ahor he had had the timber made
into rails, and b id checked his farm
with cross fences, and for several
years he drew upon these and kepi
his outside fences in pretty good
condtdoo. Blit now ihe spare cross
fences have about all been used for
this pu pose, and the rails split .fil
let n and twenty years ago are fa**t
decaying, so much so that there is
scarcely a farmer that has even an
outside fenceihat wili turn stock.
The question now presents itself to
eYi-ry farmer especially ;whal shall he
done? Pile, heading of this will tell he
remedy that we propose and not.,
withstanding there maybe a few
farmers, (and we imagine only a
few) that will disagree with us, yet
we think that we have good rea
sons to beiieyethat the adoption of
the stock law, as it ts termed, is the
bust and only available remedy lor
thi* teuco drficulty.
I am told that according ti the
report of the Commissioner of Ag
riculture of this State, the expense
of keep'Dg up the fences of the
State is more than the va ! ue of all
the stock in the State against the
depredations of which 1 fenced* ajje
made. Now if this be so, it would
be econ. my to abolish fences and
do away entirely v ith that class of
stock which usually run at large.
And further, if this report be 'rue as
regards the w hole State, is it. not
eminentlv true, awtully, wofully
true, ot Harns county, which is as
poor y supplied we .imagine with
•fenee material as a'most any conn y
in the State. This is one reason
why we think our remedy a good
.one. An we Jonot think it would be
wise to do away wfh that class of
stock that now usually run at large
nor do we think that to abolish
fences would necessitae such a step.
Instead of that we verily believe
that in five years with tbe stock
la vin force in Harris eonnty the
v due of the stock would be three
'old of what it is to-day. There is
ro farm T prfsnmo 111 the county
now in cultivation, let the fencing
be ever so poor, but has enough
ails tiDOi it. to fence in a pasture
for the stock necessary tor the place
This being done, aad the r<-qu“ite
number of stock plaoed therein,
in y would come directly under the
cwe of the owner, and instead of
oaming over thrown out elay hills
and through pine thickets and of
..■n oarer t fte fence", carid into the
cops of their owner or some of h:s
neighbors, destroying twice their
worth in one day or eight, and
coming out "ith a load of shot tin
ier their hi t< s, and a Bull dog hold
oftheii noses, with a horn knocked
or a broken leg—Huey w ould be
n thi pasture, with no more com
pany than could be bountiful! y sup*
phed cub food, and in a very short
inte even our common stock of
both cow sand hogs v oulfl l#ot at
least double the value they are at
i.resent, and would be ot no dam
age to any one. The improv and
coacf:t'.o2 a of our
common stock, if nothing else would
naturally incline the fir-mer to seek
for still greater improvement, nnti l
a very short lime ho will be led to
invest in improvod breeds, and in
short time instead ol the land pike
our our pastures would
with the best breed'of hogs to be
found, and instead of our common
stock cow that gives tr-un a quart 1
to a half gal on milk, the finer
breeds giving from four to six gtl
lons milk per day would he had.
We would have fewer Rtock it is
t ue, but instead ot ono hundred
at one year old, and instead of your
eotus giving one gallon milk per
day, a quart each, we would huve
ono cow giving four gallon-. These
appear to be reasons sufficient to
induce the people to give the peo
ple io give the subject a favorable
consideration, if not to adopt the
provisions of the law. But there is
another reason why the law should
he adopted in this county, which is
moro weighty than all others to
our mind We bdieve with tht*
stock law in force in our countv,
that it would have the effect to in
crease the price of laud, one hun
dred per cent iu less than twelve
months. The first auestion always
asked when an owner of land offers
it for sale is, •‘how much wood lanii
have yon and an answer to this
question generally determines the
price of the land. It the tract con
tains enough timber to Insure you
any material it is used as a power
ful end convincing argument that,
the land is very valuable,and should
therefore bring a good price. But
if on the other hand there is but
Utile if any umber on it, it is con
sidered of but very little value.
Why ? “because i#Ap>t lim
ber enough on it to fence it.” We
have now in our mind a large plan
tation in thi- county up,on which
there ts plenty of good land, l>ui
which could now be Dougin for a
nominal stun, because it is all clear
ed up, and not enough limber on it
to fence it. With the sioek law in
force* t.lds Jar-m and all similar eo.es
would be as valuable as any other
ot like fertility, and this with the
riddance ot the lahor and expense
of fence making, and with the cer
tainty that when a crop was planted j
an Ilanrig county that the planter ;
ami not the slock of the country
would gather the same, we believe
would double the price of lands in

twe some persosis who
Would (Viubilcss think the adoption
ot this law hardship on them, e*~
pccially that class of peach* who

it they would view the matter in
is proper ight, they would be sul
i-fied there was uo guano for Jiuea*-
i'lesS oh thmr pa.i in regard to this
matter. It is a tact t-hkwn bv the
experience and <ih.-ervß.ion of us
all, dial land owners generally are
inure anxious to rent their taiwl or
otherwise secure lalroi for the cul
tivation of illo same, than rent'-rs
are to rent, or laborers are to hire.
Any land owner therefore who de
sires to secure the cultivation ol
bis lands, would he very much Lu
his os'n light to miss reiving ins
lands cultivated because ho would
not tun Lb t.asi urage (or a few
cows belonging fo his laborers.
D .n’t we know dial any man who,
lias sense aud judgment enough to*
make title money to buy the land,
or to keep the land if someone
should gtvo it to him, would see‘at
once that the situation demanded
that he should do this tiling. It
is ti ue as we have said before, that
both tenant and landlord would
have fewer stock in numbers In
more in efficiency. Every tenant
could not have a doz n slabsided
land piths, and half as many half
starved long cows, hut toey could
have mote pork, and milk, aud but
ter, arid we think tl ii ought lo sat
isfy then. Besiues the tenants
would then only have to keep the
fence including ’he paa l uiage in
repair, while now itc fencing i the
whole place is upon their hands, and
they suffer <quaily iu proportion
with the landlords ini tlie dam
iig.*s done to the crops by the m
tin-ioo o‘ slock. We think that
the tenant c ass is more interest! .
in the adoption of this law than
aiiy other, z“ they, as 3 class are
