.hero is much truth in the statement
that the soil contains a large amount of
plant food locked up. How to get it, ,
how to make it available, is the greatest ,
practical problem. Draining and plow- j
mg under good, vegetable matter are suggested,
Very so far as they go. To soils j
originally rich, but exhausted by mjudi- j
emus cultivation, rest, plowing in of veg
elable matter, deep and thorough plow
mg will bung back much of its original i
fertilization, but however very largo the
original quantity of plant food, it is clear
that constant removal of a part will event
uallv diminish the stock. The part which ;
is available, is evidently removed very
soon; and the question arises, which is
cheaper to restore these in some available j
form, or to unlock those in the soil which I
•tie unavailable. 1 he problem is not fully
S lived. The probabilities are that a
combination of both methods, is most
economical and pays best .—Atlanta

SUPERIOR RUTTER.
That as line butter can be produced in
the South as anywhere else,has been dem¬
onstrated beyond a doubt. A lady friend
of ours, who lived till over twenty yeai
of age in the best butter country in the
world, had a sample of butter, lately
p resen ted to her, made on the farm of
Mrs. ,1. D. Tillman, Fayetteville, Term.;
and she stated that it was the finest but
ter she had tasted this side of the Atlan
tie ocean. That it reminded her of the
beautiful Scotch butter made up without
any salt in it, and known there as “fresh
country,” to distinguish it from the Dan
ish, Irish and American salted butters,
also sold in the British markets. Mrs.
Tillmun has a herd of pure Jerseys and
her butter in fibre, color, aroma and
other qualities is equal to any we have
ever seen .—Atlanta Southern Farm. J

about poultry.
Itaisiug Turkeys:—A successful turkey
taiser gives the following most excellent
plan for raising turkeys: In the first
place give two grains of black pepper
when first taken off the nest, then feed
tbem on custard made of eggs and mijk
(no sugar) until about two weeks old.
After this give them egg corn bread
soaked in miik, alternated with scalded
clabber, pouring off the whey.
Game Fowls:—Mr. Dwight, of Priva¬
teer, S. C., t-nkes great interest in chicken
raising; he has been raising them is. for
Uree yenrs, and his experience that
game chic kens are superior to the other
breeds, because they are less subject to
cholera. L ist winter when this disease
visited h > chickens, the game and half
ante were the last to die. In the spring
of the year he raises his game chickens
off to t lemsclves, but keeps a game hen
or tv\ > and game rooster with his coin
moil breed of chickens, and in this way
he has pure game and mixed game. In
t he full he keeps all the chickens in the
yard and sells the eggs. He plants rye
for his chickens, and never feeds them on
corn, except in the winter season, when
the ground D hard and they arc not able
to forGal.lv get anything. useand Mr. Dwight he would says that

thinks it would be well for every one to
have a f frame rooster with their chickens.
Chicken ,,, . Cholera Cure:—Copperas, ~
alum, sulphur, still rosin and cayenne
pepper, equal parts, pulverize tablespoonful and then
mix it. For a dose, take a
in a gallon of meal, three times a day, to
stop it. Then feed the fowls on it once
a week, to prevent it. At the same time
it is a wood plan to make W .ite oak bark
ea or them and put it in troughs for
them to drink, except the sick ones, and
you can pour it down their throats.—

Pou itry Breeding:—The climate of
Tennegsee , Georgia and Alabama, in fact
all of the Southern States which lie up

Balfour, chief secretary for Ireland,
announced in the House of Commons
that the government had proclaimed the
Irish National League. The Govern
raent had thus taken the power conferred
upon them by that statute to prohibit
and suppress the League. The Pall Mall
Gazette very vigorously attacks the gov
eminent party for adopting In the House
of Commons the Earl of Cadogan’s
amendment to the Irish Land bill relat
ing to town parks. The Gazette urges the
Liberals to revolt against the govern
merit’s Irish policy in the House of Com
mens, to obstruct the passage of supplies
measures, and thus force dissolution. ;
Mr. Parnell, said that the action of the
government in proclaiming the League !
