At Home, January 27eth, 1871.
• Mr. Editur —A note was handed me
yesterday, which red as fullers :
Puhltther of the Rural Southerner :
Ain’t Farmer Fogy going to write
for you this year? If not, you can’t get
my subscription for 1871. Owing to
the hard times, it is absolutely neces
sary to have souio old fool in the coun
try to make us laugh. If you are to
have tho Fogy correspondence in 1871
I will subscribe. Yours,
J. W. Alexander,
Louisville, Ga.”
To which was pined this:
“Mu Foor—Can t you save Mr.
A.’s dollar for us? Times are so
hard we need it very much.
Yours hopingly.
Publishers of the Southerner.”
Rear Sure —l kant resist the appeal.
Tho’ Major Alexander hadn’t better
let Mrs. Fogy git at him if he insine
wates that lam an old fool. Hard
times!—Well you correc. I sod so to
Capt. Candler last week; ho sod, “yes,
and was a cuininin.” I don t see how
that can be without inconveince to
som body. I have a nubur who haz
bcin using liickiy bark plow lines for
6 months, times too hard to buy rope
wuns. An old bachelor in my neigh
borhood, of 61 i yeers, got engaged at
last to marry, but hasn’t made tho trip
yet, fur times are so hard tliut he kant
beg, borrow 7 nor collect niunney emit
to buy hiz lisens. Now kun times ever
be eny harder? If they git so, the
married men will hav to uumarry.
From sick fato az this, with Joshua
Billings, I pray “Good Lord dilivor us'
I was entinding to write for the
Sotherner before 1 received that note
1 have felt it my duty to rite for the
publik what 1 know about farming.
My lesun js, that Horis GreeTy, a
Yanky farmer, iz al ways riting to the
Tribune what he nows bout it and I
dont want Geoagia to be behind Yan
keedum. I beleev I hav got as much
right to tell what know az ho haz.
I know I am az good looking, rite
az good a hand az he duz, and my
clothes fit me better than' liiscn. I
have seen him have on britches that
was - inches too short for him. He
sed he had ’em cut that way a pur
pos, to keep the eurculio and flees
from jumpin’ on to ’em, when he
walked in his gardens, orchard and
pig-pens. But it’s better economy to
hav ’em made long and roll ’em up.
(Tli aVs one thing I know about farm
ing)
In fact, I beleev I have more right
to tell what I know about farming
than Mr. Greely haz, for I've tried to
some things he didn’t.
Hid he evor buy koru at $1.25 to
$1.50 a bushel? and guaner at 80 dol
lars a ton, and then sell kotton at 11
cents per pound ?
Hid he ever try to work freedmen
during elecsliun time ?
Huz he buy hay, oats, meet, pota
ters, and everything else his fokes,
horses and cows eat? If he hasn’t
done these things, then I know a few
more things about farming than Hor
is.
My farming in 1870 haz n fir id ml me
more valuable experiens than hard
cash. In mv last letter, ritten last
February, rted that I beleeved every
man ort to grow more grain and less
kotton. Well, every man I talked to
eaid the same, and I felt proud of the
prospeck ov better times ahead for old
Georgia. Wun nite I told Mrs. Fogy
how I felt about it; how I had rote to
the Southerner, and talked to every
body til it appeered like every man in
the State wuz gwine to go fur grass,
korn and bakon as a part of hiz next
crop. She sed nothing for a long
time, and I sod nothing, fur I knew,
that sometimes when she takes them
say-nothing fits, it’s best fur me to bo
kwiet. But that nito she was a turn in
in her mind, a plau to help me make
munney.
“Mr. Fogy,” sez she, “I am proud
o’ you. You have done the kountry
good. Every man now is goin to
raise his own korn and meet, and mi
ty little kotton. The konsequent re-
suit 'will be that korn and meet will be
cheap, and kotton hi. Now, you put
all your land in kotton and make jest
as many bags az you kan. You can
buy all the korn and meet you want
with about 2 bags, and then jest
think ! the munny for all the rest will
be clear fur spending and savin ; kot
ton will be worth 30 cents a pound ;
korn won’t be worth more’n 50 cents
a bushel and meet 7 cents a pound.
I golly, thinks I, old lady, you is a
female in gin err worth a man’s while
to work fur, if you duz skold him
wuns in a while, and you’ve struck a
level grade and 111 run that skedule.
And I did, (but I wish I hadn t; that s
wun utlier thing I knoAV about farm
ing)
I went to Atlanta the next day.
While I avuz there, a guanner agent
stopt me on the street and wanted to
sell me sum. I told ’in I didn’t Avant
nary bit ov his Yanky manures. But
he kept talkin’ to me about how they
would dubble my. kotton crop; sed
Mr. Dave Dickson, B. G. Lockitt, Mr.
Pendleton, Mr. Simpson, and, about 2
thousand more used it, and then red
me what they said. I told him I
would take 2 bags of it. The feller
actually seemed to pitty me fur bein’
a fool, fur boin sheered ov the blamed
stuff. I told him, finally, that I
couldn’t take eny more than two bags,
fur I didn't hav the munny to buy it.
He told me that it didn’t make no dif
ferent, I needn’t pay for it till No-
vember, and all tho sekurity he would
ask, wuz a lean on 7 bags ov kotton,
and ho dun his leenin. (I wish I
hadn't, iz wun uther thing I know
about fanning.)
I planted my guaner and kotton. I
quit going anywtiero, except to church
and Hemokiatic meetings, I didn’t
plant eny korn, rase any hogs, wheet,
oats, pertaters, nor enything else but
that internal kotton. (I wish 1 had,
iz wun uther thing I know about
farming.)
This iz my unhappy statement ov
my krop for 1870:
February 25, / bought 5 ton*, 50 bags,Van
ky manure, which cost, my nromihe to
pay 00
i'cbruiiry 26, bought ton bulbils of fancy
kottou 30 00
b ebruary k’ft, / bought forty bunhiln of com <
raon kotton teed fur. 10 00
l bought 314 bvn!n>l» ov korn fur
which /promised to pay, in November,

And 2,65<j bundles oy fodder, it 2 1-1 cent#

1 barrel molasses 21 00
ft barrels flour ... 72 00
Sundries bought by Mrs Kogy aud Com
pauy (her yirls) * 67 00
, All ov which is (geeminy !) $1,066 75
I made lb bales ov Kotton, which
I havo sold at 14 cents on an average,
wun third of which was the freed- j
men’s, which left me 14 1-4 bags'
which brought me $081.3(5, which made \
me $85.81) wurz off than 1 wuz before I j
planted the kotton. There is wun i
it Mrs. Fogy haz :'
She sez kotton would have brought 30,
cents, aud korn would hav been only j
50 cents, es all the uther farmers
hadn’t been eieh hipocrits and tookj
advantage, like they did—tried to be '
smart, (l'-ut that's poor consolation
to me, is wun tiling I know about
farming)
Now, I want to know liow I am go
in to get bred, and meet fur this year j
—that s all I want. I don't want eny ,
more of them yankee manures. 1
golly, it makes me mad to think 1 wuz
sich a fule as to buy ’em last yeer.
Hubble the crop indeed ? why, the j
best uker ov kotton I had didn’t have
a pound of ’em on it i plowed un
der deep a of rag weeds on it,
and they wuz wurtli more than tho
guaner. Heep plowin under ov weeds
iz wurtli more iliau 80 dollar guaner
in. (That’s wun uther thing which I
will sware by, that I know about
| farming.)
Its a fact now that kant he disputed
—that kotton iz king, and he’s got us
down about az flat as old Brushun
! Bismarck has got the French. We all
wurk to put him iu power. We mort
gaged our land aud crops all over the
kountry, to git ammunition (guaner)
to make a lag man krop ov’rn, and
he accepted of our eervis, and new all
who want to sing hiz praize kan sing
great iz IGi g Kotton, lie made us
buy korn and meet at his prices abrod.
lie sed he w uz kingov the wurld, and
all ov his dominion was so dependent
on im that he could hold hizself at a
high price. But seems to me hiz do
minion has gone back on ’im. They
ain’t so anxious fur ’im az ho sup
pozod. But es I can live to see next
month, iu spito of Mrs. Fogy’s engi
neerin’ 111 plant me sum korn, es I
can git the seed ; and if times git eny
harder, as Captain Candler sez they
iz goin to be, any how, roastin’ ears
can bo eat and kotton can’t, iz wun
uther thing 1 know about farmin ; aud
luxuriatin on it day by day, I will re
peat :
1 tried lust vr-ar with all my might,
To git rit hby Kiug Kottou,
J bought gunner* koru and meet,
To bi* paiu for by kottou.
1 made a bunt ou gettiug rich,
,iud by my poverty alarming,
/ sware while grain aud grans will grow,
Aotton to Af-iky may go.
While 1 a bettei proof will show,
*>v w hat 1 know ov farming.
Yours, hoping,
F. Foot.
Description of llkn House. —l send
you a description of a hen house that
1 have just put up:
It is 8 x 8 square on tho ground.
The roof boards are six feet long, and
made to come even with the floor, aud
a few inches above latter. The floor
is made of the same material as the
roof, and slopes down within a few
inches of front boards. This space is
intended for the dropping to fall down
through when raked down from under
the roost. The space betweeif the
eaves and upper end of floor is closed
with a board turning on a hinge, simi
lar to a blind slat. This is the pur
pose of ventilation, aud turning the
water from on the floor, washing it
olf.
Tke frnt is of glass, six sashes cnm
ing up near the roof. The nest boxes
are close under the window sill, con-
A-eneint to get at by raising the lower
sash. The door is immediately under
nest boxes, and extends clear across
the front, and is about one foot wide,
hung on hinges to raise up or let
doAvn, as fancy may dictate.
On each aids there is a Avbeel about
two feet high, on which about tAvo
thirds of the entire Aveight of the
house rests. By taking hold of the
back end, the house can be easily
moved from place to place
This house will comfortably hold
fifty hens. The spaco under the floor
is used for saud and dirt boxes.
The entire cost of material Avas
twelve dollars. I made it myself, and
considered it superior to any I ever
saw or heard of: and it can bo made
neat enough to grace any mans door
yard.—ln l'ararie Farmer.

world—Pocket-book.

the breakfast bell puts an end to.

Dare to change-your mind, confess
your error, and alter your conduct,
when you are convinced that you are
wrong.
A Deadly Water Sroux.—The
Charleston Courier says:
Capt. Hall, of the steam ship James
A. Gary, reports a huge water-spout
in Hatteras Inlet, and says the water
came down in one solid sheet, and in
its descent struck a flock of wild
geese, killing all of them instantly.

The extensive use of these watches tor the
lasi fifteen years by Railway Contluciots. An
giueoia and Kvpressmen, the inost exacting
of watch wearers, has thoroughly demon,
strated the strength, steaditn/a-. durability
and accuracy ot the Waltham Watch. To
satiety that class in ail these respecs, is tu
decide the question as to the leul value o!
three time-keepers.
Morolhan 500,000 of these watches are
now speaking ior themselves in the pockets
of the pcoplr—a proof and a guarantee of
their superiority over all others.
7he superor organlzition and great ex'ent
ol the Company's woiks at Waltham, ena
bles them to produce watches at a price
wh-ch renders coropetiiivn fu'ile, and tho-e
who buy any other watch merely pay (mm
25 to 50 per ceut. more for their watches
ihin is necessary.
These time-pieces combine every im.
provemenl that a long experience has proved
of real practical use. Uavitig liud the retu
sal of Doarly every invention iu watch ma
king originating in this country or in Eu
rope, only those ware finally adopted which
severe testing by the most skillful artizaus in
our woiks, aud long use on the part of the
! public, demonstrated to be essential to cor
i rect and enduring time-keeping.
Among the many improvements we would
) particularize :
The invruiion and use of a centre-pinion
of peculiar construction, to prevent dam tge j
to the train by tbc breakage ol the main- ;
springs, is original with the American Watch j
Company, who, having had the icfusal of all
other contriranccs, adopted Fogg's patent
pinion as beirg the best and most faultless.
Hardened and tempered bair.springs, now
universally admitted by Watchmakers to be
the best, ate used in all grades of Waltham
Watches.
alii Waithstn Welches have dusNproof
caps, protecting the movement from dust,
ar.d lessening the necessity of the frequent
cleaning necessary in other watches.
Our new patent stem winder, or keyless
watch is already a decided success, and a
great Improvement on any stem-wiuding
watch in the American market, and by far
the cheapest watch of its quality now nflfered
to the public To those living in portions of
the United Stales where watchmakers do not
abound, watches with the above mentioned
improvements which tend to ensure accuracy
cleanliness, iJurability aud convenience, must
prove invaluable.
