kihteo / tin secretary oe the
HART COVSTT J ORIVVLTRAL SOCIETY.
‘ Members of the Society nre cor
dially invited to favor ns with brief and
pointed articles upon agriculture. An
interchange of views and experiences
cannot fail to be of utility and informa
tion to our farmers. All letters or com
munications for this department must
be directed to the Secretary of th
Hurt County Agricultural Society.
Hartwell, Ga.
Wohk for February.
Owing to the diversity of work neces
sary to be done on ditferent farms, it
would be better p >r.m[ s, to not attempt
a specific course to be followed, but
simply say to all to keep busy and risk
tbo intelligence of each one to guide
him aright in the work lie will do.
Col. 1). W. Aiken, in the Southern
Cultivator says that, “the attempt of
some to follow out the written plans o',
others to the letter, which must surely
end in failure, has brought odium upot
book farming. While others who do
not read anything are eminently suc
cessful from force of circumstances.
Fertile soil, favorable seasons, healthful
location, cheap labor, individual push
and energy, each and all contribute to
success in Southern farming, and it is
not a rare thing to find all these coinci
dences combined upon a single planta
tion.” But these tend rather to estab
lish the fact that farmers must post
themselves and do their own thinking
rather than depend upon others.
If “necessity is the mother of in
vention," and an absolute want will lx
supplied, then the farmers havejgrounds
of pood hope for “ better times.”
Kither of these propositions imply
intelligence, application and energy;
so that any relief is o ily assured by
patient compliance with the terms.
“ There is more in the land than there
is in the man,” and this, thing of man
agement enters into the calculation as a
chief element of success in every un
dertaking. Manage to make goo 1
crops—manage to keep your farm out
of debt—manage to make a living on
the farm—manage to make your ten
ants satisfied and happy: in fine you
should manage and control everything
pertaining to your business.
Again, “ i mall matt rs make up the
sum of all our comforts.” Values are
comparative. It is the net income that
the farmer wants, not gross products
without regard to cost. There is more
profit in a crop of 10 bales of cotton
that cost 5 bales to produce it than
there is in a 50 bale'crop that cost 4!!
to make it. 1 lence you may “ get more
for your cotton by cheapening the cost
to produce it.”
The question occurs, how can the
greatest net ineem: be attained ? Here
again we remand the subject for the
fanners own arbitrament. We simply
suggest that this should be done, and
leave him to devise the means best
suited to his own circumstances, l’er
hapsjsome plant too little—others do
not rotate—others buy too much guano
—and a thousand things may all have
a bearing.
Renovating Poor Lands.
This subject is constantly being <lis
cussed in the agricultural journals.
Some think the pea vine, and others
that clover is the very thing; and still
others who think that sheep-raising
alone “ will supply the panacea” to our
worn down lands.
Perhaps different methods will suit
ditferent localities, and all the plans
have their merits, hut we think sowing
down half the farm each year, alter
nating the worked with the sown part,
the most feasible plan for this section.
This is a good wheat and oat country
and these crops may be used for this
purpose and at the same time be made
highly remunerative. Other methods
may be availed of as auxiliaries, as fast
as our planters can do so, bat the seed
ing down plan commends itself in that
we are already educated in growing
small grain. It can be begun right
away and it actually lessens the cost of
running the farm. Perhaps not more
than one-fifth of the cultivated land is
devoted to small grain and summer fal
lowing; to increase this amount to one
half would bring about a reduction of
about one-third of the plow stock neces
sary now, and a large decrease of ex
penses in many other respects.
A soft, firm, velvety skin is nearly
always found on a good cow, and a thick
hard hide on a poor one.

PIIOC'EI.DINGS OK THE lIAIiT Coi'N'J Y
Agricultural Society February
4. 1879.
The special business before the Soo -
ety (to take into consideration co-aper
ative measures concerning the use aid
price of commercial fertilizers; aid
also to make some expression in refer
cnee to the continuance or abolition < f
the Agricultural Department of the
State) was lucidly introduced by the
President, Hon. F. Is. llodges, and re
ferred to the Society for their deliberate
and wise conclusion.
As touching the question of fertil
izers, on motion, it was
Resolved, That the reduction of the
cotton option by the manufacturers and
dealers is virtually raising the price of
their fertilizers, and that we will not
purchase or use the same without con
cessions in the price by them.
Resolved, That the President appoint
a committee of three to prepare a me
morial on the subject of : bolishin ; the
State Department of Agriculture and
Geology, and submit the same for the
action of this Society at its next regu
lar meeting in March.
The Choir appointed Dr. Turner, F.
S. Roberts and It. K. Sadler (the Sec
retar}' aftewurds added) on this Com
mittee.
To carry out more effectually the ob
jects of this Society, it was
Resolved, That the President appoint
some person to address each meeting
on subjects germane to the ends of the
insti ution.
And in pursuance thereof, F. S. Rob
erts was appointed for the March meet
ing.
The Agricultural columns of Tl e
Sun, which the liberal and progressive
proprietors have instituted for the gen
eral benefit of the agricultural commu
nity, ami the special medium for the
promulgation of the transaction of the
Society, together with the methods and
ideas of individual farmers, was en
dorsed with the agreed intention of
thus using it.
Four quarts of upland rice were then
distributed—four members paid their
annual dues—one new member enroll
ed and the meeting adjourned.

The Amber Cane.
Correspondence Southern Cultivator.
I notice that your correspondent,
‘•W. 11. W.” Wood's Station, Ala., de
sires to know “ whether the Early Am
ber Cane would do well in Middle Ala
bama.” I tried it here las year, and
think it much better than the ordinary
sorghum. There is a kind here called
the “ crooked neck,” that makes equal
ly as good syrup, but the Amber con
tains more saccharine matter than any I
sorghum I have seen ; and while I have
not yet made any sugar from it, I be
lieve it can be done. I have a half
barrel of Amber syrup that seems to be
turning to sugar; and when the weather
gets warmer, will drip it. and expect to
have some Amber sugar. I planted
the Amber May Ist, and it was ready
to grind the last of July. The “crook
ed neck” and red top,” planted the
same day, were not fully ripe before
the last of September. To see how
late it could he planted, I sowed a sma
package of seed as late as July Ist.
and the plants were fully matured be
fore frost. The only objection to it is,
that the stalks are generally small, and,
on poor land, will be too spindling to
grind. It requires richer land than the
ordinary sorghum, and better cultiva
tion. On the patch of Amber planted
May 1, and cut down about August 1
a second crop giew oSf from the stub
ble, about one-third of which matured
seed ; so that, if planted in March, 1
have no doubt two crops from the same
land could be cut a.id ground into
syrup.

To Cure Chicken Cholera. —Mix in
equal proportion by weight, the follow
ing ingredients: Pounded copperas,
alum, saltpetre, sulphur and cayenne
pepper. Take half a pint of this and
mix with a quart of corn meal. Feed
in troughs, or some other place where
it will not got dirty. When chickens
are so near dead that they cannot eat,
put a teaspoonful down their throats.
Northern farmers recommend highly
a mixture of hurley and oats. The
I barley heads out first, but the oats soon
latter shoots above it and matures. The
crop is harvested as soon as the oats
permit. Larger-crops, it is said, are
secured than if each is sown alone : and
the mixed grain makes most excellent
feed.
A successful breeder of fowls 0:1 a
large scale says: that a superior cock
and inferior lien will produce second
rate chickens —hut a good hen and in
ferior cock will bring good chickens,
j lie advises also setting large eggs as
they will produce large fowls; and kill
ing off hens which lay small eggs.

Boston, Oct., 1870,
Mr. IT. It. Rtfvfv*:—
Dear .Sir.—My daughter, after having a severe
attack of Whooping Cough, was left in a feeble
state of health. Being advised by n friend, she
tried the Vkcirtinb, and after using a few bot
tles, was fully restored to health.
I have been a great sufferer from Rheuma
tism. I have taken several bottles of the Veue-
TINE fur this complaint, und mn happy to say
It has entirely cured me. I have recommended
the Vkuetine to others with the same good
results, it is a groat cleanser and purifier of
the blood ; it is pleasant to tttLe, nail 1 can
Cheerfully recoin mend it.
JAMES MOUSE, 3G4 Athens Street.
EHEUMATISHis aEISEASEcf theBLOOD.
The blood, in this disons*. Is found to contain
an excess of/Mirla. V koktink acts by convert
ing the blood from its diseased condition to a
healthy circulation. Vkurtink regulates the
bowels, which is very Important in this com
plaint. One bottle of vkoet ink will give relief,
but to effect a permanent cure it must bo taken
regularly, and may take several bottles, espe
cially hi cases of long standing. Veuktikk is
sold by all druggists. Try it, and your verdict
will be the same as that of thousands before
you, who say, “I never found so much relief as
from the use of VaeSTfiVß." which is com
posed exclusively of Murks, Moots aud Jlcrbs.
•* Vfoftivk," says a Boston physician, "bos
no equal as a blood puritter. Hearing of Its
many wonderful cures, after all other remedies
had failed. I visited the laboratory and con
vinced myself of its genuine merit. It is pre
pared from harks, roots, and herbs, each of
which is highly effective, and they are com
pounded in such u manner os to produce aston
ishing results."

Mr 11. R. Stevens:—
Dear Mir.— l have been troubled with Scrof
ula. Canker, and Liver Complaint for three
years; nothing ever did rue any good until I
commenced using the Vkuetine. I am now
getting along first rate, and still using the

mend it to everybody. Yours truly.
