Progress in Farming—Tlic Far
mers Duty*
Editors Southern Cultivator :—To
one who stops to reflect, does it not
seem very surprising that an art so old
and 60 universally practiced as agri
culture, should have made so little
progress. Just think of it, an art
more than 3000 years old—one that
all races of men are compelled, from
the very necessities ot the case, to
practice—one that in densely populat
ed communities, (and such existed in
very early times,) the great demand
for food intensely stimulates just
think how much room still there is for
improvement in it! llow many of its
problems remain unsolved —how im
perfect tlio implements wherewith it
works !
Your aim, Messrs Editors, and the
desire of us fanners is, or should bo,
to advance the cause of agriculture —
to redeem the earth from dominion of
thorns and briars, and to make the
waste place blossom as the garden. To
reach these ends, it seems to mo one of
the first and most essential things to
bo done, is to discover the cause of
causes of the slow progress, and it
possible remove them—it being true
here as elsewhere, that every burden
kited, and every clog removed, is
t quivalent to a forward impulse. First
and foremost, it may be observed that
the comporative isolation of the farmer
causes the knowledge he may gain,
in groat part to die with him, and to
bo lost to tho world. A chance con
servation at some public gathering,
or a question from a neighbor—prom
pted by observing an unusually good
crop on his farm—may now and then
an occasion for him to impart a little
of his great and valuable experience
to others; but at his death only a
tithe of it is left for tho his
race. Evon his own son will ordinar
ily have learnod but littlo of those ni
cer judgments—those keener discrimi
nations—those wide generalizations,
which lay hidden away in tho recesses
of bis mind. Tho results, the ofl'ects
of these, tho son may have seen, but
has tho whys and tho wherefores lie
not, and it is these latter, tho whys
and the wherefores, which aro the foun-
of progress in agriculture,
where conditions are ever changing,
and whoi» f ( , apply a principle cor
rectly, the “rew, n 0 f the rule’’ must
bo known -
Could every farmer’s i -perience bo
fully recorded, in a form acccnsible to
others, each exceeding generation, R
stead of having to learn ai/a’ 1 ' for it
self, by ttie slow |.iuo»oß of experience,
the knowledge acquire*! by that which
preceded it, could start whore tho lat
ter stopped, and expend its olibrt in
acquiring additional knowledge. Un
der these conditions, how much more
rapid, progress Avould be ?
Not only so—suppose that at tho
end of each year, each farmer’s exper
ience was accessible to all, so that in
beginning another year’s operations,
each might take advantage not only of
what ho himself had learned during
tho preceding year, but of what every
one of his brother farmer’s had learn
ed during tho isamo timo, how much
greater still, under these conditions,
would tho probabilities of progress be?
An incessant play of actions and reac
tions would bo established, aud a ra
piidly accelerated forward motiou nec
essaiily be produced.
Not to weary your readers, I will
not mention any other retarding cause
at present, but proceed to suggest rem
edies for the one discussed :
Ist. Agricultural Societies —especial-
ly county associations—whose frequent
fumiliar discussion bring about the
freest interchange o£ experience, and
whoso reports of committees and essays
constitute a permanent record of pass
ing experience.*
2d. Agricultural Journals.—ln those
not only tho farmers of a neighborhood
but those of a whole country have a
common meeting ground—through
them can mako inquiries of each oth
er on doubtful points, and can relate
their failures aud successes. Not only
so, but they furnish a permanont re
cord of the aggregated experience of
all in a form which at almost nominal
expense, may be placed in tho hands
of every farmer in tho land. In my
humble judgment, agricultural jour
nals are destined to be tho great mo
tivo power in agricultural progress.
Aud tho more frooley farmer’s make
use of their columns as writers, (not
merely as -readers,) tho greater their
power will be. Not, Messrs Editors,
that I would undor-tako your appro
priate work. You are expected to
keep abreast with all tho discoveries
in science which bear upon agricul
ture, and to give your readers the ben-
efit of them—to glean from your ma
ny exchanges every item of interest,
and every suggestive fact, and placo
them iu proper order before your read
ers. The above of themselves consti
tute a great work and an important
work, but we need in addition to hear
from the great body of experimenters
in the field. We want to know when
they have tried this or that implement,
this or that manure, this or that varie
ty of seed, this or that mode of culti
vation—what the results [are, whether
favorable or unfavorable. Come
brother farmers of the South, let us
help ono another. Send forward to
the Cultivator every item of interest
you may have—don’t act upon the
selfish and unwise principle “of get
ting all you can,” but “keeping°all
you get.”
FARMER.
Atlanta. Ga., May 31st, 1871.
The true way to advance another’s
virtue is to follow it, and the best
means to cry down another’s vice is to
decline it.
How TO MAKE A I’I,ACB PROSPEROUS
—There can hardly be a greater sign
of prosperity in a community than a
disposition to help ono another, to lift
a littlo when a neighbor’s wheel gets
stuck in tho mud.
1 know of a place where a man’s
barn, with all his winter stores of
grain and hay, was cousumod in tho
night, Immediately all the men of
the country side musterod and haulud
up timber lor anew barn, and then a
big raising came off. After that the
sound of twenty moro hammers was
heard until tho whole was shingled
(and sided. But their deed of kind-
ness was uot yet done; ono and an
othor offered to take a head or two of
his stock and winter them for him,
thus greatly reducing his loss and as
suring his heart of tho moro durable
j riches of brotherly love and neighbor
-Ily good will. No one can compute in
money the value of ono example of
noble liberality in acommunity, espe
cially in its influence upon the young.
Where tiiis spirit prevails there is sure
to be progress iu a place oven if all
improvements aro iu their infancy.—
People will liko to come uud settle in
a place which bears such a name.
Now, if you desire to see your placo a
growing, popular one, do w r hat you
can to show yourself a good neighbor
especially to those who need a littlo
extra help.
If a man starts a tin shop or a
blacksmith’s fahop iu your place, don’t
harness up and drive five mi lots off to
buy your tin pans or got your horse
shod, just because you have boen in
the habit of doing it. Patronize the
new comer w'lien you want anything
dono in this line. Speak encouragingly
to him, aud well of him to your neigh
bors. Little words of censure or ap
proval go a long way, and when once
you have spoken them you cannot call
them back.
Help tlio sick, especially if they aro
poor, for poverty and illness are in
deed a heavy burden. Perform all
acts of loving charity which fall daily
in your path, remomberiug who it is
that said, “Ye shall in no wise lose
your reward.”— Cor. Country Gentle
man.
Salt for Animals on the Farm.—
We continue to see in our various
exchanges plans to tempt the appetite
of our domestic animals by mixing salt
with their food. Musty bay, and otlior
unpalatablo and innutritious food, it
is said, is thus readily eaten. Decayed
and docaying vegetables, rye straw,
etc., are palmed off upon tbo cows,
who deserve bettor treatment and moro
intelligent management. All live stock
are fend of salt; it promotes appetite
and health. Keluse material, not lit
for food, and which otherwise would
nut be touched, is greedily oaten forjthe
sake of tho salt. This wo consider
rather hard usago, and w*>
» nut wo tiavo ../v u stated bclore, that
all live stock should have a lump of
.w~l» ul all tiujca, in
the barn-yard, the horse trough, tho
cow-shed, and “every other place
where animals most do congregate.”
By thus having it wherever and as of
ten as they want it, they will never
tako more than natural appetite promts
aud the obvious offect of taking too
much salt at ono timo will always be
avoided.
Musty hay, rye staw and decayed
vegetables, will thou go to tlieir ap
propriate place, tlio barn-yard, to
make manure - —Vradical Farmer.
To Keep Ties on Wheels. —Here
a practical man on tlio subject : I iron
od a wagon some years ago for my
use, before putting on the tios l filled
the felloes with liuseed oil; and the
tires have worn out and wore never
looso. My method is as follows; I
uso a long cast iron heater, made for
tho purpose ; tho oil is brought to a
boiling heat, tho wheel is placed on a
stick, to hang in the oil, each fel
loe an hour. The timber should be
dry, as groon timber will not tako the
oil.
Caro should bo taken that tho oil
is not made hotter than a boiling heat
or tho timbor filled with oil is not sus -
ceptible to injury by water, and is ren
dered much more durable by this pro
cess.
Dissolved Bones — Ono of tho great
est boons which scienco lias conferred
on agriculture is that of dissolving
bones before using them. In tho con
dition in which bones originally exist,
and even when they are ground to tho
finest powder, thoy are still compara
tively insoluble, and we must apply a
largo quantity to supply the growing
crop. Y\ lioD dissolved by moans of
sulphuric acid they aro then very sol
uble, can be spread much more equal
ly over tho soil, and will exert a much
speedier influence on the crop.
How to Extinguish Fires of Ker
osene.—ln cases of Kerosene fires,
don’t try to extinguish tho flame with
water: that will only spread the fire.
Instead, uso blankets or woolen cloths
quilts, shawls, or whatever may be at
hand that can be used to smother the
flames. Don’t use water; the oil
floats upon it and burns as rapidly as
over, Remember that smothering is
tho only way of stopping tho fire.
ArrLE Fritters.— Ono quart of
flour, with a toaspoonful of powdered
yeast, a little salt, one pint of milk,
throe eggs, two nice apples sliced very
thin. Fried in hot lard.
The amount spont last year in this
country for ministers, churches and
missions, home and foroign, was obout
eight millions of dollars ; and that for
artificial flowers, which are vanity, fif
teen millions.
Massachusetts is elated by tho an
nouncement that only 10,000 feet re
mains to be bored iu the Iloosac Tun
nel. The prospect of completing tho
work by the commencement of tho
next century is considered good.

procure a bottle, that their sufferings may
not only be relieved, but that they may be
restored to health and strength.
