Africa I tnral Farmers, Plant Fruit Trees! If people, generally, were as fond of cultivating fruit as they are of eat ing it, what a plentiful supply of this healthful luxury we should have, and how much belter it would be for the interests of all. We fre quently gaze with amazement upon larms than which none could be hetfti'vidifpied to the cultivation of nearly every kind of tree fruit, but upon which such a thing as a fruit tree is as great a rarity as snow in harvest. We fail to understand how it is possible that people can be so indifferent to tbeir own comfort and their own interests. If the set ting out of a hundred or two choice peach, pear, apple and plum trees, involved an outlay of as many hun dred dollars, we could then under stand why there are so many farms almost devoid of fruit of any kind, but when such is not the case, when fifty dollars would clear the entire expense, leaving out of the question the cost of planting, which is trifling, we confess to utter amazement, and not unfrequently to a feeling of in dignation. The farmer who does not cultivate as much fruit ns is suf ficient for the largest possible wants of his family, is little less than a barbarian, for certainly he must be wanting in one of the broadest char acteristics of true civiliztion, when he deprives not only himself, but liis family, of what cannot be re garded ns other than the cheapest, most wholesome, and, though to some it may seem a stretch of imagina tion, elevating luxuries. The culti vation of fruits exert3 upon the mind an influence not unlike that of the cultivation of flowers. It is refining in Jits tendencies. Where there are an abundance of fruit, there is necessarily a smaller con sumption of meat, and, conse quently, less grossness of physical as well as mental habit. Go to work then, farmers, and es pecially those of you who have heretofore neglected to plant fruit trees. Do not allow another season to pass over your heads without be ing able to say that, in a tew years, you have a reasonable prospect of a crop of fruit sufficient for your fam ilies and for the friends who may need it. What is Science in Farming P It is not unusual—perhaps it is not unnatural—for one who has been only a “practical farmer all his life to discourage the idea that science can be of assistance to him, and to doubt its value. Perhaps his ob jection would be les3 if he appreci ated the exact meaning of the word. Webster gives it four definitions: “(1) Knowledge; penetrating and comprehensive information, skill, expertness, and the like. (2) The comprehension and understanding of truth or facts. (3) Truth ascer tained ; that which is known. (4) Knowledge duly arranged, and re ferred to general truths or principles on which it is founded and from which it is derived.” Now, surely no farmer will deny the value of knowledge—a knowl edge of his own business. He must know how and when to perform the various operations of the farm, and if he knows also the reasons why t ty are necessary, he will he bet ter able to exercise a sound judg ment concerning them. The more penetrating and comprehensive his knowledge is, and the greater his skill and expertness, the more cheap ly and the more effectively will his work be done. The more compre hension and understanding of the truths on which his snccess de pends, and of the facts which daily arise in his management of his busi ness, the better farmer will he be. Truth ascertained, that which is known, is “Book Farming”—that is to say, the knowledge that we get from books and agricultural papers is nothing more nor less than the re corded knowledge (not the fancies) of other people. It is an important item of the science of farming, that seefi, in order to germinate and pro duce a crop, must be so put in the soil as to satisfy the conditions of growth. This much every farmer knows, and to this extent has he ac quired a scientific understanding of his business. The knowledge is of absolute value to him and to every other farmer, and its value would not be lessoned if he were to write a communication to an editor inform ing him and his readers of it. ! If an other person were to write that be cause the germinating plant comes up in a certain way, therefore all farmers ought to plant their grass seed with their fingers, always put ting the right end uppermost, this would be neither book farming nor sciepce, ,nor anything else ; but mere fancy, and a fancy of which every .fiftner would see the folly. Now, generations of men have been busy in investigating, mainly in the Tfrfcl, everything connected with the operations of practical ag riculture. tittle by little they have acqidfed knowledge, which knowl- so much of it as is well understood has been referred to the general troths an# principles on which it is founded, and from which it is deri ved. The knowledge itself is due mainly to the experience of work ing farmers; and chemists and oth ers, who have made general truths and principles the subject of careful study, have classified and arranged it, and given it the form that is gen erally understood by the word “sci ence.” No error, no unimproved theory, none of the fancies of those who write from imagination rather than experience, is to be called ei ther Science or Book Farming, and it is unfortunate that so much of our agricultural writ ng has been done by men who lack experience on the farm. It has given rise to the doubt referred to in our first paragraph, and discouraged many of our best and most intelligent working men from seeking knowledge, where it is best to be found, in the recorded ex perience of those who have gone be fore them. The real truth of the matter is (hat in decrying science, farmers de cry knowledge, and a natural deduc tion from their reasoning would lead them to withdraw from the manage ment of their farms, because they have some knowledge, and give rt over to men who have none whatev er. If knowledge is essential, and if, as we are told and believe, “a little knowledge is a dangerous thing,” then the more knowledge we get, the belter our chances will lie. Follow no false lights, let the lamp of true knowledge lead wher ever it will. —American Agricultu rist. AGBICUICT72AL ITEMS. Farmers should improve their lands and embellish their homes with good fruit. Planters should diversify their la bor and crops. Should make and manufacture everything at home that will pay a profit on production. The value of the fences of the United States are estimated at SI,- 300,000,000. Will our people ever substitute hedges, thereby saving and lending beauty lo the appear ance of the country ? To keep apples and pears in a sound condition through the autumn and wiuter months, the defective fruit must be separated from the sound. A cool and dry atmosphere is necessary, and a uniforom degree ol temperature must be maintained. A recent experiment with the common Chinaberry, by using it un der corn, resulted in a yield of fif teen per cent, greater than the same amount of land where cotton seed was used. The corn had a ver dant appearance and vigorous growth. A roughly treated heiler, will make a vicious cow. Unkind usage of a well meaning colt will make him a stubborn and ill-tempered, horse. Kind and gentle treatment to animals when young, causes them to be orderly and tractable when grown. Two rules should prevail in horse shoeing. The rough, spongy part of the frog of the horse’s foot acts as lung3 to the foot, consequently the frog should never be cut. The oth er rule is, never have a red hot shoe put upon the foot of a horse to burn it level. It deadens the hoof and tends lo contract it. A writer from Florida says: “I have had a Swede with me since October. From the first day he picked as much cotton as any hand in the field ; made the best fireman that I ever had around a sugar fur , nace ; beat all of the hands at split ting rails, and is as good a plowman as there is on the farm.” Mode of Managing a Restive Horse. A groom, mounted on a high met tled hunter, entered the street of Coldstream, and when opposite Sir John Majorbank’s monument the horse began to plunge and rear to a fearful extent, swerving to the right and then to the left, but go forward he would not, nor could all the exer tions of the g.oom overcome his ob stinacy. The street was filled with people expecting to see tae animal destroy himself on the spikes of the iron railing round the monument, when Mr. McDougall, saddler, walked up to the groom and said: “I think, my man, you are not tak ing the proper method to make the horse go; allow me if you please, lo show you a trick worth knowing.” “Well,” said the groom, “if you can make him go, it’s more than I can do ;j” when Mr. McDugall took a piece of whip-cord, which he tied with a knot on the end of the ani mal’s ear, which he bent gently down, fastening the end of the string to the check buckle of the bridle ; this done, he patted the horse’s neck once or twice and said : “Now let me see you go quietly home, like a good horse.” Astonishing to relate, the horse moved off as gently as if nothing had happened. Mr. McDu- Sall says he has seen in London, orses which no manner of force could make go, while this mild treat ment was always successful, —Kelso Chronicle. The grand jar; in the U. 8.
