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.- •dmcrtcan Slock Journal. 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. “SoufUmi” Cangrcuititn, Tho oarfiot-bitggfcrs -who prbtolid to .represent tho Southern States aro tlio greatest humbugs over palmod off up- m,n legislative body.
