What Makes the South Poor. Daniel Dennett, editor of the Agricultural Department of the New Orleans Pieayvnr, jit discussing Iba condition of farmers, points our two causes for their want of prosperity. The South, he says, is rich iu resources but poor in purse. Hhe may ho rich in purse anti he ai do to develop her vast resources with her own means. Diversified farming will probably iu time bring these (, n lf States out of the cotton nit and horti culture will implant anew and more intense interest in tho cultivation of the soil and will give anew interest to Southern homes. Mere paint, whitewash, fruits and flowers wili mate homes more attractive and the farmers and their families more ambitious and more hopeful and industrious, and the country more prosperous But the people must remove two great evils before pros perity will come. Let us bring out the quadrant and the chronometer and take a reckoning and find out where we are, and then examine the barometer aud see if any storm is brew ing. If we remember correctly tbe Commis sioner of Agriculture of Georgia estimates that that State usually spends about #8,000,- 000 annually for Western corn and pork. That State has 1,542,180 inhabitants. Ala bama, Georgia, Arkansas, Florida, Louisi ana, Mississippi, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas in IHBO contained about 10,077,931 inhabitants, if each of these nine States consumes as much Western corn and pork as Georgia, according to their population, it would amount in the aggregate to about #50,000,000 for the nine States. And this is perhaps not more than half that these States purchase from the West and North that might be produced on Southern farms. And the Southern farmers are the chief con sumers of these articles purchased from those States. JudgeChrismau,of Lincolnconnty. Miss., lately stated iuaspeech madeatßrookhaven that the liquor sold chiefly to the farmers of Lincoln county at Brook haven before pro hibition cost the consumers annually about $lOO,OOO, or the market value of about 2,000 bales of ootton Liquor consumed in the same proportion in the nine States would rest #84,300,000, or the vahieof 4845,000ba1es of cotton. These nine States would con sume, according to our estimates, liquors, corn and pork annually that would cost ihem over #120,000,000. If Judge Chris man's estimates are correct ours are not far from the truth. Can these nine States 1 hrive before they have in a great measure removed these millstones and stumbling blocks? Who can answer? Who can de fend the whisky traffic or say that Southern farmers can thrive while they are fed by tho farmers of the West and vote in favor of the whisky traffic? Mississippi has si lenced the liquor traffic in about half of the counties in the State and i Georgia has crushed the monster in about 100 counties and in the city of Atlanta, and in these States prohi bition severely prohibits, and the friends of progress and reform hold all the forts they have captured. You can bet on this state ment. Do Not Stunt Young Stock. Prof. Sandford, in the Mobile Register, says that it is a matter of both theoretical and practical importance that young stock should not be stunted in their growth. All have noticed, he says, that in plant life that arrested development does result in a marked change in the character of the plant. This is at once observed in the changed ratio of stem to plant. It is well understood that feeding the plant at various stages of growth has a positive influence on its character, not on its size merely, but on tl ; ratio of its parts to each other. He believes that the -ame analagous results may be and are gained in calf iaeding. The early growth of a calf when ’a normal condition is the growth of bone and muscle. Grant that we stint the normal development of these parts until the usual time when the animal has accumulated the heavy ratio of fat that belongs to the mature years—not only of outside fat, but of intercellular fat, which latter is the greater amount —and that we then, at. this fieriod when fat should have been formed, begin with this stunted calf rapid or high feeding, we shall have as a re sult not only large development of outside fat of kidneys, etc., but a small ratio of fat between the muscular tissues. The development of the skeleton is like wise affected. If development is arrested and the expansion of the body framework in youth is not caught up and carried for ward in just the ratio existing when the animal was dropped, a failure to obtain a symmetrical growth is the result. The in fluence of arrested development on diges bon and assimilation is more obscure but is obvious in its temporary if not iu its per manent results. This we know that the ,fl *d necessary to keep tho young animal alive during arrested development is just so n, ueh feed thrown away, to say nothing of 'be fact, that the limit of consumptive ca pacity is narrowed and hence the normal ' Opacity recovered, if at all, only after a biting period of heavy feeding. Prof. Sanford does not at all believe in regard to digestion and assimilation that powers of this character can remain dor mant. for a material jieriod when they natu rally should be very active, and then, at a more advanced stage of life, take on the activity of youth and the foroe that use would have given them. This we all know, that it is a miserable policy to let the most active period of growth fallow while the expense of the exist ence goes on. \Y r e all know that it is slow work to restore thrift, in a stunted calf, nnd that it will lie a long while liefore tho Appearance of a good animal can lie taken on. Compost Manures. The late Ben Perley Poor wrote through the Southern Cultivator that while coin- P°st manures are highly appreciated by nurserymen ana florists, one of the best practical farmers ho over knew held that the object to lie attained by ordinary coin posting was not at all understood by a largo majority of tho masses. Composts are mix tures of animal manures, lime, ashes, vege ’ahle matter and earth, two or more of * h “m. The economy of composts consists ’m first, saving tbe gaseous matter which Scapes from manure while undergoing fer mentation, and the liquids which flow from , nf ' manure heap; and, second, in rendering ' 'Triable matter soluble and food for plants, winr-h was before inert and unsless. This, riirth is mixed with and spread over a l* l * • of raw manure while it is fermenting, mibibes the volatile and liquid parts of the manure which would otherwiie be lost, and this becomes almost as fertilizing as the manure itself. This fact shows that ma nure loses much in fermentation, for it loses all the gains. It peaty or swampy earth is emyiloyed, a double object is gained; for while it prevents waste in the manure, it is of itself converted into manure (being com posed of vegetable matter), by the process of fermentation. Rut when tho object i> merely to prevent waste in raw manure, the process is most economically effected in the soil, where both the gases and liquids will be retained, and by which tho transporta tion of the earth to and from the manure yard is saved. YY'hen the manure can be conveniently used upon hood crops before fermentation, then a betiding and covering of eart h for the pile is a matter of economy and should not be omitted. So if it is de sired to convert the vegetable deposits of swamps into manure it may be readily- and profitably done by alternating it in layers with lot. manure. In this case one part of manure to three parts of swamp earth wilt suffice. A layer of manure, five or six feet broad and as long as necessary, is first de posited on a proper piece of ground, then a layer of earth over it; and in this way al ternate layers should be added until the pile Is five or six feet high. As soon as the mass gets out of a state of fermentation, which may be ascertained by plunging into it a stick for a few- moments and ascertaining thereby- its heat, the compost is tit for use. This wifi require weeks or months, accord ing to the temperature of the weather. It wifi he perceived that composts in which no fermentation takes place can be of little advantage. There is no volatile matter to be given off, and no tendency exists to break down and render soluble ligneous and woody matter. Lime operates more powerfully thau fresh manure in in ducing fermentation in vegetable matter, though it is not prudent to have it in com bination with fresh manure from the stable or barnyard. Mr. Poore has found by ex perience that it causes a too violent action and dissipates nearly all fertilizing proper ties. Composts are particularly adapted to all the family of small grains and for top dressing grass grounds, where this latter practice is tolerated. Mere earthy matters add nothing to the compost pile; they merely prevent waste of other materials which com pose it. In making composts, therefore, for field use, earths should be preferred which abound in vegetable matter, and the litter, vegetable refuse, soap suds, ashes, etc., should be added, which are ordinarily wasted, and which form annually a large aggregate upon a farm. Wine From Frozen Oranges. From a letter in the Palatka News the following extract is taken: I would call the attention of my fellow co-laborcrs in the orange growing business to a fact, one which old settlers in this State have probably had brought sorrowfully to their attention. As the timber lands of the State are being cleared our climate is growing colder. It often happens, of late years, that our oranges must be gathered while comparatively green or be frozen. In the last event I, for one, propose to thaw my oranges in a ware room and then commence immediately to make them into wine. That such a course is practicable 1 am convinced. While in New York city this summer I there drank of wine made in Orange county, in this State, from sweet oranges which had been frozen. It was a beautiful amber color, pleasant to the taste, and I have no doubt but that such wine is a wholesome article. It retailed for $1 per quart bottle and the dealer who handled it informed me that it was fast growing into favor with his cus tomers Money in Live Stock. The editor of the Rural Messenger says where the farmer has the facilities for keep ing and pasturing stock he is false to his in terest to neglect raising it. There is money in stock of almost every kind. Near every farmer could easily raise more stock t han he does, and it would cost very little addi tional for him to do so. The farmer can raise all stock at very small cost. Oats, peas, rye, grasi and corn, raised upon the farm, enable the owner to grow stock very cheaply. Raise grass and forage for stock to eat, sell tho stock or the products of the stock, cut down the troublesome cotton pro duct to one-hall' or one-fourth area and you will make more money than you have ever done on full crops of cotton.

Farm and Stock Note3. It has been claimed that 40 per ceut. of corn fodder is wasted by feeding it whole as compared with cutting it. In September 30,000 pounds of sugar were made at Fort Scott, Kail., from sorghum that yielded 135 pounds per ton. Scientific tests in Hungary show that corn will produce the largest yioM of milk while sorghum produces milk of tbs richest quality. Feeding stock only what it, will eat readily and digest thoroughly will result, in an im|>ortar.t saving in forage during the winter. Before going into fruit culture find out what varieties your land is best adapted to produce and give those varieties the prefer ence. Situation as well as soil adaptation should be considered. Yearling trees are, of course, small but desirable in certain eases; they will usually be from one to two feet, in length, without branches; and 1.000 of them packed for shipment will weigh about 400 pounds. The old-fashioned plan of hanging the seed corn to the joists of the kitchen by the husks which had been stripped back And plaited together for the purpose always se cured “sped that would grow,” because it was thoroughly dried. More sheep means more grain to the acre, better pastures and a larger pocketbook. Wool must, tie bad and the demand for good mutton is on the increase. Asa rule there is notliing ou the farm which pays better than a good flock of sheep. The cheapest mode of keeping rats out of a barn is to use half-inch wire netting, placing it from two to three feet deep in the ground all around the edges of the barn or stable, digging a narrow trench for the pur (>ose. and then refilling in the dirt. Moss is the best of all materials for pack ing trees and plants, as it retains moisture for a long time and never heats. Outside of the moss, however, which is put next the roots, considerable straw is used, rye being the best for the purpose. The straw pro vents bruising. Foul odors, drinking filthy water and sleeping in slippery stalls, where the liquid manure adheres to tho skin and udder, cause disease in cows, w hich is communicated to thoso who use tho milk Diphtheria, ty phoid and scarlet fevers, and other diseases may be traced to impure milk. Pop corn does not. coutain as much fat or oily matter as yellow com, and for tunt reason the grains are considered the. best, for feeding to poultry, but pop corn is probably worth more in the market than its value as poultry food, and will not l>e extensively used in place of the yellow field corn. The best, way to get rid of lice in the hen house is to thoroughly saturate every por tion with strong Imiling soapsuds, first add ing a. pint of kerosene to every bucket of the suds. It should be forced into every crack and crevice, and also on the under side of the roof, as well as on the walls. Some farmers attribute the disease known as wenk loins in hogs to lying in hot horse manure. It is a rheumatic trouble, which may be cured by active and continued rub bing. It may be cured by exercise and fresh air: but it is better still to give the fresh air and exercise, and thus prevent the appearance of the disease. The solids of the milk are what call for or use up the food of the animal. It makes little difference with the food consumed whether a cow puts a pound of butter or two pounds of cheese into a pailful of milk or diffuses it through two. The difference between tb two kinds of milk is water, and this costs nothing and carries a like value. The American Garden says it is about time that we should stop speaking and writing about roots “seeking” their food, just as if they possessed intelligence. The multiplicity of roots in fertile spots is due solely to the extra stimulus thereat to freer growth than at more sterile points. Where there is more food of course there is more growth, other things being equal. The latest plan with ensilage is te cut the entire corn crop —stalks, ears and all—into the silo. The kernels of the corn will be wholly digested by the cattle, as it does not dry out nor lose its milky character, which gives it succulence for rapid digestion. A farmer who has made this point one of spe cial investigation so reports and affirms that there is not a visible trace of corn in the voiilings. Poultry manure is an excellent fertilizer for strawberry plants. The proper mode of applying it is to spread it thickly over the plant., in the row after the leaves have dried. In the spring the now leaves will push above the manure, and the rains will carry the soluble portions down to the roots. On light, sandy soils tho manure should not be applied before the middle of January, but on heavy soils it may be spread late in the fall. Popular Science. A part of the white pepper of commerce is bleached with chlorine, hence its inferior quality. A solution of thymol, used as a mouth wash after smoking will remove the unplea sant odor of tobacco. A richly cut, solid glass bedstead has been recently made at a Birmingham (Eng.) fac tory for a Calcutta millionaire. The King of Bnrmab also has one. Both Sydenham and Boerhaave, great names in medicine, asserted that acute pneumonias were rarely cured without the abstraction of 40 ounces of blood. in addition to supplying crops with the necessary moijture rain has a distinct ma nurial valup At Rotbainsted, the well known farm of Sir John B. Lawes, it has been shown that, with an annual rainfall of little less than 33 inches, each acre of land receives every year in the rain water over 14 pounds of pure chlorine, 17 pounds of sulphuric acid and between 3 and 3 pounds of ammonia. Home curious results produced by ex ploding marked blocks of gun-cotton on flat plates of wrought iron have been describes! by Mr. C. E. Monroe. The guu-cotton blocks were placed with the lettered side down, and the letters stamped in relief ap peared in relief on the iron after explosion, while, on the other hand, the letters de pressed in the gun-cotton were also de pressed on the iron plate. The dynamic value of one pouud of good steam coal has been estimated by Prof. W. D. Rogers as equivalent to the work of one man one day, while three tons would repre sent his work for 30 years, counting 300 working days in a year. He has further estimated that a four-foot seam would yield one ton of good coal to the square yard, and that one square mile in area would represent the labor of. over 1,000,000 men for 30 yen ix. Coffee acts upon the brain as a stimulant, inciting it to increased activity and pro ducing sleeplessness: hence it ts of great value as an ant idote to narcotic poisons. It is also supposed to prevent too rapid waste in the tissues of the body, and in that way enables it to support life on lees food. These effects are due to the volatile oil and also to a peculiar crystallixable nitrogenous prin ciple termed caffeine. Tho leaves of the plant likewise contain the same principle, and! he inhabitants of the Jsland-of Sumatra prefer an infusion of the leaves to that of the berries. Its essential qualities are also greatly changed, tho heat causing the de velopment or the volatile oil and the pecu liar acid that gives aroma and flavor. The march of progress is shown by the following statement: “It is now possible to construct a complete sowing maehine in a minute or sixty m one hour; u retfherevery fifteen minutes or less; 300 watches in a day, complete in all their appointments. More Inqwrtant than this even is the fact that it is possible to construct a locomotive in a day. From the plans of a draughtsman to the execution of them by the workmen every wheel, lever, valve anil rod may be con structed from the metal to the engine in tact. Every rivet mov bo driven in the boiler, every tube in the tube sheets, and from the smokestack to the. ash pan a loco motive may be turned out iu a working day, completely equipped, ready to do the work of 100 horses.” CHEAP ADVERTISING.
