' ° * cabbage should bo sown in a seed bed,
early in the spring. Some gardeners
prefer to grow plants for early spring
cabbage in a frame in the autumn, pro
tecting them with boards or matting dur
ing the winter, but without good care
plants saved in this way often prove a
loss. Iu a mild climate, plants may not
ouly bo started in autumn, but trans
planted, and will make considerable
growth during the winter season. Some
varieties sceui to do best if the seed is
sown in the bills where they arc to re
main; and this is particularly the case
with the 3Iarblehead varieties. Sow
two or three seeds where each plant is
desired, and then pull up all but the
strongest. The large varieties require to
be planted about three feet apart; the
small, early sorts, from a foot to eighteeu
inches. Always give cabbage a deep,
h soil, and keep it mellow with pleuty
manure. For early winter use, store
ew in a cool cellar. The main crop
will better kept out of doors, set in a
trench closely, head down, and covered
with straw and earth. There is almost
an endless variety of cabbage, and nearly
all extensive growers have their favorite
sorts. Some kinds seem to succeed best
certain localities.

FARM AND GARDEN.
Corn Cobs.
A ^rcat many farmers do not seem t
be aware of the fact that corn cobs ar
very valuable. Too many tly-ow them
out of doors, as something to be got out
of the way with as little trouble as possi
ble. Others do not shell their corn, but
have cobs and kernels ground together
tor their cattle and hogs. I have known
farmers to use them for fuel, and have,
<>n some farms, seen them thrown into
the yards to be made into manure.
Which is the best way ? To throw them
into a heap and Icavo them without
putting them to any kind of use, is cer-
tainly a waste which no farmer can af
ford. To have them ground for cattle,
it seems to me, is about as bad as to
throw them s away. While cobs contain
a great deal of plant food, they are cer
tainly deficient in the materials required
for t he growth and fattening of animals.
Some writers have claimed that they do
harm when fed to cattle, and it seems
reasonable to suppose that in some cases
which are predisposed to inflamation,
they uiay, by mechanical action, prove
injurious. Resides, it is considerable
work—as I have experienced—to get
ears of corn to mill, and it costs a great
deal to get them ground. The miller
takes a pretty liberal amount of toll, and
is sure to Like it from that part of the
hopper in which there is the most corn
and least cobs. As far ns obtaining
heat is concerned, cobs are worth some
thing for fuel; but it is said by tbose
who have had experience in the matter,
•hat they burn out u stove very fast, and
arc consequently more expensive than
wood or coal. To throw them into the
yards where hogs arc allowed to run, is
probably the best way in which the
farmer ean use his corn cobs. The hogs
work them over to find any kernels of
corn which may remain upon them,break
them in pieces, and tread them into
nurc. They take up a great deal of
liquid manure, and are very valuable for
absorbent purposes, besides bein*
themselves one of the best fertilizers.
For potatoes and corn,hog manure which
contains plenty of well rotted corn cobs,
is one of the best things I ever used
Cobs contain a great deal of potash, and
are extremely useful on soils which
deficient in that material. On almost
all kinds of land, and for all farm crops,
they are much more valuable then '
usually thought, and ought to be ca
fully saved and used for manure.—Lice
Stack Journal.
A Word to Farmers.—Farmers of
Georgia, what of the night? Will you
desert your gardens, orchards, vineyards
and farms because you are in debt. 1
hear many of you pretend failure and
bankruptcy; some think they are shroud
ed with liens and that ruin Blares them
in the face. God turned Adam out of
tho garden under far more gloomy c»r„
cuuistances. You never enjoyed such a
habitation as he did. The same sun
shines upon you that warmed Adam's
field and heart. Yon have the same dews
and gentle rains to enrich the furrows
of your field, you enjoy the melody of the
forest songsters, you have the same fruits
and flowers, you have the same seed
time and harvest, you have as loving
wives, daughters and sons, and the same
posterity to labor for. I here would say
to you retrench, reform, economize.
Make all you eat. Uefore yon buy auy*
thing study for days to see if you can
not do without it. Patched clothes are
more honorable than those unpaid for.
Stand to your plows like Stonewall Jack-
son did to his guns at Hull Run, amid
gloom, dismay and death. And like/
him you will put to flight all your s
versaries, and God will recognize you
noble descendants of Adam, and own you
as his people.

Siieei* on a Farm.—Sheep are u
dervalued by the mass of land-holders
a means of keeping up the fertility of the
soil and putting money into the pockets
of farmers. Tho moment one begins
talk of sheep husbandry the listener
reader begins to look for wool quota
tions. as if wool was all that yields profit
from sheep. One might as well look for
wheat quotations alone when there is
talk about the profit of farming. .
Sheep on a farm yield both wool and
mutton. They multiply with great
pidity. Thcy'are the best of farm scav
engers, “cleaning a field” as no other
class of animals will. They give back to
the farm more in proportion to what they
take from it than any other animal, and
distribute it better with a view to the
future fertility of the soil. Prove this ?
There is no need of proof to those who
have kept sheep and know their habits
and their yield. To prove it to those
wto have not the experience, it is neces-
saiy they should try the experiment
accept the testimony of an experienced
shepherd.
nut the live stock of a farm should
not, necessarily, be sheep, exclusive.
Cuttle,' horses, swine, have their respec
tive places in the farm economy. IIow
many of each to keep is a question that
locality,character ©f markets, adaptation
. of soil, predisposition, taste and skill of
the husbandman must decide. Bat one
thing ought not to be forgotten, that the
more stock a man has on his farm the
wore grass, and it ought to, and if prop
erly managed, it will grow. The rates
of increase will correspond with the busi
ness tact, technical and practical knowl
edge and akiil of the husbandman.—N.
Y. WorM.
Good Tomatoes.—To have good to
matoes one must first secure strong,
healthy plants, and this cannot be done
in noarland. They will “run to vines”
at first, but the tips should be pinched,
and the fruit will follow; and such
fruit as exhausted soil never ean pro
duce. Any person who premits vines to
lay on the ground cannot reasonably
coant on securing the best results. Try
the plan of little trellises, no matter how
rough or homely; the extra crop will
more than repay tho trouble. Thus
shall you raise tomatoes in a double
rense.
Nearly all siek animals become so by
improper feeding, iu the first place.
Nine cases out of ten digestion is wrong.
Charcoal is tho most efficient and rapid
corrective. It will cure in a majority of
eases, if properly administered. An ex
ample of its use: The hired man came
in with the intelligence that, one of the
finest cows was very sick, and a kind
neighbor proposed to use drugs, and
poisons. The owners being ill, and un*-
able to examine the cow, concluded that
the trouble came from overheating, and
ordered a ter. cupful of pulverized char
coal given in water. It was mixed and
placed in a junk bottle, the head held
upward and the water and charcoal pour
ed downward. In fine minutes improve
ment was visible, and in a few hours the
animal was in the pasture quietly eating
grass. Another instance of equal suc
cess occurred with a heifer which had
become badly bloated by eating green
apples after a hard wind. The bloat
was so severe that the sides were al
most as hard as a barrel. The old
remedy, salaratus, was tried for cor
recting the acidity. But the attempt
to put it down always caused coughing,
aud it did little good. Half a teacup
ful of powdered charcoal was given.
In six hours all appearances of the
bloat had gone and the heifer was well.
-—Lice Stock Journal.
Killing Carbaoe Worms.—Every
year wo get a new batch of remedies
for the cabbage worm—or rather, we
get a rehash of the old remedies, and
every year after trying one or more of
them, we all go back to the oldest rem
edy of all, the thumb and finger. “Try
again,” however, is a good motto, so we
now give one more “certain cure.” It
is given by a correspondent of the New
York Tribune, and is this: “In June,”
he says, “in going through my early cab
bage, I found oue completely covered
with the worms. Immediately I ob
tained a handful of bran and sprinkled
it over tho head. The worms began to
squirm and fall off the cabbage, nro’
wherever the bran touched them tl.vy
seemed to be iu pain. The following
morning they were all dead. Siucc that
time,on tho first appearaucc of the worm,
I sow the bran. Somo seasons it may
be necessary to do it tho second time.
If the worms arc very thick, it is better
to take a handful and sprinkle it over
the cabbage. A hundred weight is am
ple for an acre.” This is simple, cheap
and easHy tried. Possibly, it may be
the very thing wc have been looking
for.
