I run a one-horse farm this year and nude three bales of cotton, two hun dred and fitly bushels of corn, one hundred bushels potatoes, three thou sand pounds fodder, and j>eas in pro portion. I also have fattened and killed thirteen hundred pounds of pork. 1 have paid all ray debts and have one bale of cotton left. I am now sixty years of ape. and when old men like me can make this much there is no excuse for young men de serting the farm. I will take the Dispatch next year for 1 am well pleased with It. 1 used no guano and bought no meat or com to make this crop. LeOXAKD liOCKK.

Farmors’ Trading Associations Nothing is easier than for leu or more farmers lo consult together at any meeting for the purpose, au I see what goods they want for six months’ supplies, unite their orders, and au thorize some one of their number to purchase w hat is needed, a >vhol - sale prices. Thousands of farmers and mechanics are trading in this way, and save sotutwenty ive per cent, in the average cost of nil they consume. They are fast learning to dispense with the services of all Iver sons whose labor they do not require. Middlemen Ivclweeii producers and consumers have increased beyond all profit to either consumer or producer. Sound business ideas diututi the most direct exchange |Kvssil>le of la bor or ils fruits, between man and man, with as few hands, as little handling and transportation as is at tainable. There are more who live on the toil of others, rather than their own productive industry, than the best interests of the com in unity demand. Corn at fifteen cents a bushels in the West is teaching corn-growers of the wisdom of dts|H.*itsitig with the lollops ot all merchants, lawyers, courts and every man who does not give the far mer as much honest haul word for fifteen cents as will raise a bushel of corn. Such poorly paid work is as comfortable for the merchant, judge on the bench, lawyer, doct r, priest and banker, a* for the tiller of the grouud who raises bread for all. Wise farming will compel every one to pay tillage and husbandry tin* highest fees of any profession for five or ten hours’ labor. l>o this and fanning will ba not less honorable than profitable. Agriculture is com ing to the front of all pro essions. l-nbor of the South. T.it* planters at the south have complained much apout the unrelia bility and scarcity of labor conce quent on the emancipation of the slaves, the decline in the value of their plantations, and the lack of gen eral pros|x*rily in tue old slave bold ing Stales. Different views are ex pressed in the following extract from an address delivered at an agricultu ral fair at Eufaula, Ala., by lion. C. 0. Landon, editor of the Rural A l.tbnminn .* Sineo the close of the war great ef forts have been maile to introduce foreign lal>or, to take the place of the negro on southern plantations; and, for n time, the scheme was in high favor with many southern plan ters. Hut the few experiments that have been made have proved so dis astrous to those who expect to lie benefltted, that the scheme lias now but few, if any, advocates outside of the interested immigration societies. The laborers introduced by these societies have generally been of the most worthless character, and the whole scheme has proved such a disgusting failure ns to hardly merit even a condemnatory tiolic?. Were we ever so much in want of labor, deliver us, above all things else, from the pauper and convict labor of Eu rope, and the barbarian labor of China. Read the Dispatch for 1874. On lv Two Dollars. A CAMP-MEETING SCRAPE. BY SANDY IIIOOINS. I used to have one grand objec tion to the camp meeting business, and that was the way Uiey had of watching a fellow to sec it he had any whisky about his dry goods. I always attended all of the occasions that were in reach of me, because I I was blind to he wherever there was j a crowd. A meeting, or a barbecue, or a circus, or any thing else that i brought people together, was the place for me, and I hardly ever man aged to gut away without showing the crowd what a fool mau can be, when he lias the right kind of a chance to let out what is in him. But, as 1 said at the start, I objected to their way of nosing around for whisky, because that was the staff of life with me, and I didn't like to have it interfered with. I remember that I once got into a beautiful scrape by taking liquor to such a place, and I’ll case ray conscience by relating it. I had been very hard at work, and couldu’t gei off till Saturday morn ing, and then 1 joined in with two other fellows, and we hitched up an old mule to a little wagon, ao that vre could take our rations aud drink along with us, and he independent, for we were so infernally mean that nobody would ask us to stay at their tent, and we were so full of devil ment that we didn’t want to put up with decent people, so honors were cveu on that score. When we reached the place we found a genera! turn out; every laxly was there, and most of ’em had their wives aud children along. **Ve lound they had u guard appointed, with strict orders to destroy all Lbe whisky they could find, and keep the owner tin er arrest till the meeting was over. This was a pretty tight law, and I and Bill Sanders aud Tom Long decided that one of us should keep watch at the wagon, while the other two were prowling about. You see wo only had one gallou along, and if that was destroyed we knew we’d have to lea7e the place, for it was simply out of the question to stav there without red eye. So wc* stopped our mule outside of the ctowd by the edge us a big a.vamp, and arranged the order of business. Rill was lo stand guard till dinner, then Tom was to lake his torn, and 1 finished the day. While I was knocking about in tlie crowd 1 noticed a long legged, lank sided preacher named Faggs, who always gave the lioys more trouble than alt the guards that could be posted. He could stneii a bottle of wltishy three quarters of a mile, against a March sto:m, and when he dtd get Isis nose set on it he’d march as straight to it as a cow could (ly, aud ih ii good-bye, tangle-foot! I never could tell what use lie put it to for he was never known to thro v any of it away, and there was a rumor among the boys t‘*»t lie coaid hold as much of it as a family churn, lie didn’t get much preaching to do, for he was not very popular among the women; so lie spent most of his spare time hanging around with ins nose in the air, trying to catch a scent. 1 kept my eye on hi in during the day, and when my time came to watch, l told the Soys not to lose sight of him, or he’d catch us sure. Well aliout sundown I was sil , ting in the wagon, about half asleep, ■ wishing (vr night to come so I could be relieved. I had just taken a good drink, and was Icaii ng back wi.h tlie t jug between ray legs when I heard steps, and before I could bat my •yes, old Faggs was peeping iu at me like lie was watching a mouse. “Well, Sandy,” said he, "what have you got in that jug?” “Buttermilk,” said I. “Yon see,” I continued, by way of explanation, |"I don’t never drink anything but buttcrmi'.k, and I thought I’d bring some along with mr.” “Avery good idea,” sui 1 he, “and I’m precious fond of buttermilk, so I'll just taste it.” "Well,” said !, holding the jug I tight between my knees, "it ain't I good buttermilk, by any means; in fact, its awful sorry milk.” “.Nevertheless. 1 h ive a stong de sire to taste it,” he continued, anil reaching bis long arm in, lie pulled the jug out and took a good long smell at it. “Alt,” said lie, turning up his eyes till 1 could nearly see the roots ol them, “it’s vile whisky, just as I ex pected. I'm sorry to say that I feel it my duty to destroy tiiis accursed stuff, and take you back to the stand 1 thought I'd try the bluff game, so 1 replied : “Ami I’m sorry to , say if you don't take yourself back I II double your head and heels to gether and stick 'em.” Hat he didn't scare worth a but ton ; lie just held to the jug with one hand and reached out after me with the other. I had a good notion to sail iuto him, hut didn't for there was entirely too much of him, so I broke for the swamp, and he after me, calling for help. I soon reached ■ the timber, and about the third jump landed waist deep in the mud, where I stuck. It was so dark in there that old Faggs couldn't see me, and after peeping about a little he took a good pull at tlie jug, and marched off. How I did wish it was a bomb shell, and I bad a chance to touch it off! Hut I couldn't help myself, so 1 set about considering my position. It was too late in season for moccasins which took some of the dread off my mind, but the mud and water were c. Id, and after waiting awhile to see that nobody else was coming, I pulled myself out in no very pleasant stale of mind, you may swear. I felt “wet ma’am, very wet,” as Mr. Oury said when lie fell iuto the creek, and 1 was cold, and my new breeches were nimbly, and the whisky was ! dean gone! That was the worst; slam of the whole thing, and I ! groaned w.th vexation of spirit, and ! ground in)’ teeth together, and swore i a light smart chance. While I was j thus enjoying myself, Bill amt Tom ; came up to get a drink. “Where is the whisky, Sandy?” inquired Tom. when he found the jug gone. “Ask old Faggs.” said I savagely. “For Ood's sake, Sandy!” said Bill, “you don’t mean to say that you’ve let that old bean pole tote off all the lieker ?” “No, I didn't let him,” said I; “he done it without any letting about it, and if I hadn t got into the swamp he’d carried me with it.’’ “Here is the d—ll’» said Tom, setting down on the wagon body, aud looking as if he was in the last Stage of the toothache. “Here Wc arc ten miles from home, and it Sat urday nighty aud no whisky! What in tlie dingnntlon will we do?’’ I tried to console him, bnt he re fused to be comforted, and swore he had a good notion to turn the whole camp ground over. However, it all did no good, and as there was no prospect of anything to drink, wo tumbled into the wagon and went to sleep. I was determined to have satisfac tion out of somebody, so when Sun day came 1 watched everything that was going on, wailing for a chance to do something to somebodv. I found out that Faggs was to preach at night, and during the evening I saw him walking out of the thickest part of th« woods, back to the tents. I got where I could watch his move ments, and saw him take a black bottle from uuder a log and turn it up to his month. He held it there till I thought he’d lose his breath, but finally cut the drink off, and, putting the bottle back, stole back to the crowd. As soon a3 he was out of sight, I went up, and I’ll be blessed if he didn’t have nearly a quart of peach and honey! Here was a discovery and it didn’t lake me long to empty part of the good stuff into my stotn aeh. Then 1 hurried bach and hunt ed up Dr. Wilson who was as mean as 1 was, and got enough calomel to physic an elephant, aud made my way back to the woods. A fler tak ing another pull at it, 1 poured in roy medicine, and hid myself to watch the co i ’Be of events. Well about*dark lie sneaked, back took a huge driuk, and hurried off to begin his preaching. Then 1 pitched the bottle into the swamp, and hunt ing up Bill and l’om, took a scut in front of the pulpit, where I could watch the proceedings. Presently Faggs rose and said : "Brethren, 1 feel very much re vived to night.’’ “If JTOU knew what was in that bottle, old fellow,” thought I, “you wouldn’t revive much!” “I say, brethren,” continued he, “the spirit of the Lord worketli in me mightily.” "Never mind,” thought I, "Jiere'll lie another spirit at work in you pret ty soon!” “And I tell you, brethren,” lie went on, “my bowels yearn over this con gregation. ’’ After going on this way a few uiin tne*. I saw him put his hands about a foot below his stomach, and lean over like something hurt him, and I said to Tom. “I ll lie hanged if I don’t lxdieve lie's going to shut himself up like a barlow knife.” Tom told me to Ik* quiet, but the scene wits getting so interesting that I could ltardly keep my sea.. The old fellow W'ould roll up his eyes like a calf choked wi.h a coni cob, and I knew his preaching would come to a close nnher sudden. The women thinking lie had gone crazy, went to screaming and shouting, the men to praying, while I enjoyed the fun, not even letting Tom ami Bill know what was the matter. It didn't quite kill him, but next day it was said that he couldn't even eat fried chicken. Whether lie sus pected me or not I can’t sav, and didn’t care, but I thought l was about even.
