How lo Get More Land.
Many, a farmer can become possessed
of more land than he now has, by oth
er means than buying it. Paradoxical
as this proposition may sound, it is,
nevertheless, to all intents strictly true.
We repeat, that for all agricultural
purposes, the farmer may as a general
thing increase to a considerable extent
the available area of his land—that is
get more land—without acquiring it
by purchase. He need not steal ano
ther farm, nor set the one he has up i n
edge and cultivate both sides of it.
But if he render useful every foot of
soil that he already owns, he will find
himself getting perhaps many acres
more than he now derives benefit fiom.
It is hard to make an Anglo-Saxon
believe that he floes not want a larger
farm. Annexation is our mama. - No
sooner does a man ’“see his way out''
of debt for the place lie has, than he
straightway longs to add a new pur
chase. lie sees with covetous eyes the
tempting excellence o[ adjacent terri
tory possibty just ov r the fence. . He
imagines numberless advantages that
would accrue ‘‘if lie only had that
strip.” Mistaking broad acres for
wealth, he shuts his eyes to the f.ct
that he has really just got ready to
farm profitably, and to the other fact
that “shrouds have no pockets,” works
himself into the conviction that he needs
the coveted piece, and proceeds “ u>
(buy) again and be again undone.”
Not to mention draining and other
means of reclaiming land, we desire
now merely to inculcate the duty of
thoroughly picking up and clearing
fields, particularly newly-chopped, of
all logs, brush, old stumps, scattering
trees, rocks, arid whatever obstacles
may exist which impede the passage
of the plow, or cover up the ground
so as to stifle the growth of the crop.
A newly cleared piece is necessarily
used for pasture for several years. We
often see such, that appear scarcely
half cleared. We have noticed some
that, three years after they were chop
ped off, contained besides twenty or
thirty scattering trees, as many more-
old logs fast becoming too decayed to
burn, and numberless ancient brush-
heaps, relapsing into the bosom of
mother earth, and as they slowly crum
bled away, providing perfect nests for
thistles, small burrs, and other posts,
rendering worse than useless two or
three square yards of ground each, and
presenting an appearance as unsightly
as their effect is pernicious. In a lot
of five, ten or twenty acres, mnltiiudi
nous small old brush-heaps will c >ver
no little surface. A computation of
the amount would surprise one who
had given the matter no thought.
Were they removed, how many more
stalks of corn or cotion would grow
than the field now affi-rds?
The proper mode of procedure is.
either in spring or fall, to go over the
field in regular strips or “ lands,” and
pick, pile up and burn every stick and
root, and burn them.
Price of Wheat.—There is now
extensive inquiry being made as to
what will b : the market value of vvhe .t
in these times. We pretend nut to In
competent to instruct in the matter.
Yet one thing we know to be true—
that with an unprecedented crop, both
as to quantity and quality, there is a
limited demand both at home and
abread. Under these circumstances it
would be well for all wno have a sur
plus to dispose of, and can get $1 per
bushel, whether in cash or towards the
pa3’ment of debts, to sell promptly.
Those who can get $1 per bushel in
Confederate bonds or treasury tithes,
will do well to sell. These bonds
will draw 8 por cent, interest, and if
the war continues will in a vear or two'
be the most re : ial le a id s-ife tune <y
we can possibly have. Tie Confect
erate Government has proposed to but
produce with Confederate bonds, and
the membersof Congress in the several
districts are appointed to act as agent*
in the matter. They will n< t take tin-
wheat except in the form of flour, as,
in the language of one of their agents,
'‘the Government has something else
to do besides going to mill.” But this
will not be objected to. For we can
retain, the bran and seconds, and stiil
get a remuneiating price for the fi mi.
We shall thus be tilde to sustain our
Government, berefitonrael ves and fee l
our patriotic soldiers, upon whose
strong arms and brave hearts we con
fidently rel v to beat b ick the infernal
Goths and Vandals who seek to sub
jugate and destroy us.—Rome Courier.
Camp Jokes.—It’s said that Gen. Ma
gruder, in command at Yorktown is not
a member of a temperance society, and
the boys, who are sometimes rather un-
have not failed lo discover that fact,
and perhaps to speak -pretty freely of it
sometimes. Among these was private
Winship Stedman of th s town. On the
day after Stedjecin had performed an act
of great gallantry in the seoutin i party
from Bethel Church, he was confo n
ded at a peremptory order to appear
before the General, enforced by a s c-
tion of soldiers. He was unable to de
cide whether he was to be shot or re
primanded, till he reached the Gen
eral’s tent and was sternlv addressed
thus: “Private Stedman, I understand
that you have said old Magruder
drinks all the liquor in Yorktown, and
won’t let you have a drop. You shall
say so no lo: ger, sir. Walk in and
take a drink. 1 commend you for your
bi avery.”—Fayetteville Observer.

by tl.e wind blowing it away—others by mixing it
with Stable Manure, or by using not half enough

so far as we have been able to learn the truth, in
nine eases out ot ten, the Guanoed Cotton, Corn,
Wheat, Oats, Bari y. Rye, Tit nips, and all Garden
Vegetables, have vie!.led ne.rly twice as nuchas
the nngnauoed land ; so it pays even in the ilrvest
seasons. You make but little this year—poorcrops,
but if ton had used no Ferti.izcr, you would have
made next to nothing. If the seasons had coiitinu
