FARM AND
I'nMralnlug Mm!.
To wlmtovor purpose we dovoteoui-
liiml, whether Btoek raising, grain
growing, or fruit nml vegetable or.l-
ture, our first aim should bo to tnako
It proiluctlve, Hero lies the groat, se
cret of sucocii. Who over got rloh
by farming poor land ? Thousands
havo remained poor by trying tho ex
periment: Thousands havo drawn onti
a woary, mlB^.'ablo oxlstanee, rearing
families in Ignoranro and poVorWj by
staying on poor land without a propor
effort to Improve and mako It produo-
tlvo; and thousands are doing tho
same thing to-day.
In this communication I do not In
tend to sny one word about the vari
ous [kind of'fertilisers, nor the best
manner of applying thorn—-tlioy aro
all moro or loss valuablo and can hard
ly bo mls-nppltod If brought in contact
with tho boll; but this communication
shall bo “of oarth, earthly.”
A comparatively small numbor of
farmors aro awaro of undordralnlug
as a means or enlarging tho produc
tiveness of tholr land; tlioy aro apt to
think that only swamps and low lauds
aro boneDttod by this process—this is
a grcnl mistako, fallen into by taking
a moroly superficial viow of tho mat
ter.
A farmer in one of the northern or
middlo Statos would bo glad to havo
his land onjoy tho bonoflt of ono or
two degrees fartlior South, so as to
work it oarllor in tho spring, Imvo a
longer season for his orops to grow and
maturo, and at the samo time remain
and onjoy himself with tho pleasant
companionship of his prosont neigh
bors. All tills can bo accomplished by
tho Bimplo procoss of undordralnlug.
Yes, moro than this—your crops may
bo doublod lu quantity and of supe
rior quality.
Tho question will bo asked—how
underdraining will accomplish all this?
Low laying land is known to bo cold,
comparud with that which is moro ele
vated. Tho cause of this coldness is
tho presence of too much water near
tho surface. If this wator is with
drawn by means of undordraiuing, tbo
soil becomes moro porus—tlio atmos-
phoric air penetrates to a greater depth
—the rays of tho sun meet with less
resistance and consequently penetrate
deeper, throwing into tho soil n great
cr amount of boat. Admitting tho
force of all theso facts in regard to
lowland, they will apply with equal
forco to that which is moro elevated.
All lands except that with sandy or
very porus subsoil will bo boneBtod
by undordraiuing. Grass will take an
earlier start, and the ground will bo in
a condition to turn stock to pasture
two weeks earlier. Oats, corn and po
tatoes can bo planted two weeks earli
er, and the full crops will' rocoivo tho
bonoflt of it two wooks later.
Tho best nrtlclo for tho purpose is
earthen tylo, anil should bo used whon-
ovor it is convenient to procure thorn,
but whoro they cannot bo had, wood
may bo used to advantage as a substi
tute. Take saplings of from three to
six inches in diameter, and let them
lap a little at each ond. Tho surplus
water will bo attracted to them and
follow their course to tho outlet to
which tlioy loud.
Tylo should bo laid from two to
threo foot doop, and the drains from
twonty-flvo to thlrty-flvo foot apart.—
Tho deeper the drains, the farther
apart they may bo laid. Tho work
may bo dono in tho fall nnd oarly win-
tor before tho freezing sots in. Every
industrious farmer may find timo to do
this without much outlay of monoy.-

Wheat Cultuki: A correspondent
of tbo Bronham (Texas) Nows writes :
1. Suvo all tho grains that shatter
out in bundling tho grains on shoots.
2. Wash your grain in a brine strong
enough to hold about oue-half, and
savo tho grain that sottlcs at the bot
tom.
3. Wash or soak both in a solution
of blnostono.
4. Subsoil and manure your land
thoroughly and drain properly ; nnd
than sow your seed with n grain drill
or smnll shovel, oast und west, without
brushing, and I will glmrantoo a full
crop of wheat.
Lot every fanner sow ono aero in
this way, nnd another in tho usual
way, nnd tost tho matter fairly. Break
your laud as you get a season.

they nro denounced as unrepentant
robots, and already Congress has pass

lmd to bo a bird, I’d bo oho that was
“fly”—I’d bo a gay oanary, and I will
toll you why: because you’re treated
lmndsomo; and, if you only sings, gets
cuttlefish nnd cbickweod, nnd lots of
bully things; and to some charming
ovonturo you can breathe your lovo in
song, nnd warblo out your roundalnys
right to her sweet and strong ; Blip’ll

Tho negroes ill tlio Texas Conven
tion very emphatically declare that
they will not bo ruled by their carpet
bag friends; that tlioy are tlio only na-
tivo loyal Unionists of tlio South ; and
that with tlio assistance of God and
their revolvers tlioy will mako such
laws as will allow them the privileges
voted them by Congress. The same
spirit is cropping out in the Alabama
Legislature,
Tho owner of tlio trotting licirso Ben
Butler was asked tlio other day why
ho lmd bostowed tlio bottled hero's
name upon his horse? “Well,” ho re
plied, “I called him Ben Butler because
X thought wlicrovor lie was entered
lie,rvould bo pertain to parry,off the
plate."
“When will Tliad Stevens die?” asks
nncxchango. “Novel - ,” rospondsBrlck
Pomeroy. “Liko good old Elijah lie
will bo translated, but tlio wliir.wind

up, nud bo wjll disappear so quick that
Beast Butler willnot havo tilno to atrial
bis watch.
Little Susie, poring over a book in
which angels were represented as wing
ed beings, suddenly exclaimed with ve
hemence, ‘Mamma, I don’t wnnt to bo
an angel, and I needn’t need I ?’ Why
Susie?’ questioned her mother—
'Humph, leave off nil my pretty clothes
and wear fodders liko a lieu ?’
A gontlemau wltilo walking" in his
garden caught tlio gardener asleep un
der a li’oo. Ho scolded him soundly
lor his Irizjness, and riiidp;! by tolling
him Hint such a laggard was not wor
thy to enjoy the light.ofitho sun. “ It
was for that reason, exactly,’! said tlio
gnrdencr, “that I crept into the shade.”
A couplo of lodgers, poociipying tlio
snino apartment in n house that was
visited by burglars, were tied iu dill'er-
ont parts of their room, their proekots
rilled,: aud tlio light then put out. A
short time afterward,' onb of tlio lodg
ers exclaimed, iu accents of despair,
“Oil, I’m undone—I’m undone!”—
Whereupon the. other said, “Then
come and undo' liie.”
