AGRICULTUR A L.
From K. O. Home Journal.
Wvik for October.
TIIK rLA STATION.
Cotton picking will now demand a
largo slime cf attention, ami mu>t bo
pushed ibnvard vigorously during all
iuvorablo weather. The tierco winds
and beating rains v.ill come, cro long;
and the cotton crop should be mainly
gathered, ginned and made ready lor
market before that time.
Corn should, also, bo carefully gath
ered and housed, as soon as possible,
to prevent tho ravages of the weevil.
Branches of the common Elder (S it in
built* fimodenxix,) scattered through the
barn and about the crib, may be used
ns a detergent for this often very troub
lesome insect
l’umpkins should be carefully gath
ered unit stored on rail scallblds, above
ground, ami under shelter. Boiled up
with coarse meal or bran into mush,
they form an excellent food for fatten
ing hogs or cattle ; and when dried
and properly cooked, they enter into
many of tho nice and palatable winter
dishes of tho good and skiillul house
wife.
Fodder stacks, put up previous to
tho lato storms, may need re-topping
or tho erection of a stout board cuno
jiy over thorn as a guard against corn
ing gales. If you have barn room, it
will bo advisable to houso all tho fod
der you can, about tho last of this
month, or early in November.
Hay—tho second growth of Crab
Grass may yet bo cut and saved, and
all fresh grass that has sprung up since
tho autumn rains, is still available.—
Tlio old grass, partially withered ami
seedless, is of little or no value, aad
can only bo used as litter or bedding.
It is worth saving for that purpose
and manure, if tho tirno can bo spared
from more important work.
Sweet potatoes should bo dug In dry
weather, as soon cs ripo, and bofore
tho first frosts, and gToat care must be
taken in housing or banking them
properly for winter use. The old con
ical banks containing twenty or twen
ty-five bushels each, built up on dry
ground, the potatoes covered with pine
straw, corn-stalks, and about a foot of
earth, with ventilatiug hole on top,
and tho whole capped wiili a plank
shelter and well louced in, answer an
excellent purpose, whore there are no
regular potato-houses on tho farm
Wo generally allow our potatoes to lie
in heaps twenty-four or twenty-eight
hours, before wo put thorn up in the
banks or houses, in order that they
may puss through tho first “heating”
process —though wo have banked them
in an hour or two after digging, and
kept thorn in perfection.
Small Grain, such as Bye, Oats,
Barley, or wheat in tho drill, for spring
forage, must now be put in. Those
crops will not succeed on thin, poor,
shallow-plowed laud ; and should bo
carefully let alono if you are not pre
pared to manure heavily, plow deeply
and pulverize fiuoly. If you sow
broadcast, first get your grouud in per
fect order, sow plenty ot seed, brush
it in ovenly and thoroughly, but light
ly ; and then roll the surface level, so
that tho scythe or cradlo may meet
with no obstruction when your crop is
cut. On land well manured and prop
erly prepared, (as abovo indicated,)
Bye or barley will make at least two
tons of excellent forage or hay to tlio
acre, and may be cut early in the
spring, just before the ear is formed.
For small lots, however, we prefer
sowing Bye, Barley or Wheat in the
drill, as tho yield is greater, if well
manured and properly managed. Clo
ver, Lucerne, Tall Oat and other grasses,
may now bo sown, so as to got a vig
orous start before the severe weather
sots in. Gardon borders may be plant
ed in Lucerne, and if highly manured
the crop will bear repeated cuttings,
and prove both useful and ornamental.
Fruits, Vegetables, Etc.— l’reparo
your ground for Orchards, by grubbing
out all roots ; a deep and thorough
plowing ; perfoct drainage, etc., as fre
quently advised heretofore. Apples,
Pears, Quinces, Hums, Mulborrios and
Figs grow and bear well on land a lit
tle retentive and moist, but not wet;
and all these require land doeply plow
ed, well drained, and liberally ma
nured with a compost containing lime
in some form, a little salt and ashes
and a good supply of decomposed veg
etable matter. The Peach and Grape
must have dry, porous soil—they will
not flourish on wot or moist land—with
the exception of the Scuppernong,
which will grow and bear almost any
where. The Grape requires generous
manuring with broken bones, ashes,
woodsmoulil, rotted turf, etc. The
Peach, on ordinary soda, requires lit
tle or no manuring, until the tree
comes into full bearing, as it is gener
ally disposed to make too much
“wood,” which necessitates heavy
pruning every fall. The safest and
the best manure for the Peach tree is
a compost of four parts of rotted turf,
or good (decomposed) surface soil, two
parts of wood ashes, and one part of
old charcoal duat or scrapings from a
burnt-out kiln, if obtainable. If not,
it will “pay” well to purchase charcoal,
and use a peck of it well broken up,
for each tree, every fall, in the com
post described above. But the main
point in Peach culture, to begin with,
is to have the ground thoroughly drained,
eo that no water can stand in tho soil
within two feet of the surface. In all
the low and flat country along the
Gulf coast, the land must bo thrown
up into high ridges, and tho Peach
tree planted on the summit of these
ridges, with full opportunity for all
surplus water to run off rapidly. The
Orang* tree should bo extensively
§lanted at all points on the Gulf and
liver coasts south of Pascagoula, and
not far from salt water. It will grow
and bear best on moist soil and in the
partial shade of other trees. Hum
mocks, properly thinned out, and the
open glades of our piney-woods (when
not too wet), suit Orange trees well.—
They need shelter from sun, wind and
frost, and thrive particularly well on
tho south and southeast sidos of large
bodies of water. In planting as we
direct, dig lurge, wide holes, and use
manure freely. The Orange noeds
plenty o f lime, sumo phosphates,
a li'.tlo salt, much vegetable matter,
otc., but the treo is a hearty feeder,
and will appropriate almost any kind
of pabulum, and pay handsomely for
a wry liberal manuring in spring and
autumn. Soo our lato article on
“Strawberry Culture,” uud complete
your preparations for this crop—sav
ing for it all the ashes, charcoal dust
and loaf mould you can collect.
Ail vegetables started during tho
latter part of August and early in Sep
tember, will now require a careful
working. You may, also, sow Cab- 1
bago seeds, Spinach, Turnips, Mus-'
tard, Looks, Itadiskes, Cress, Parse-'
ley. Plant out Lettuce and Endive,
>o as to have a succession. Plant, al
so, tho Globe Artichoke and Onions.
Manure Asparagus beds. Sot out
Cabbage, Celery, Brocoli and other
hardy plants, in showery weather.
In tho FJ.ower Garden, all bulbs,
such ns Hyacinths, Tulips Gladiolus,
Amarvlis, etc., may bo planted out tho
lust of this mouth, or early in Novem
ber.

a special conference at tho Tabernacle
yesterday, ut which eight thousand
Mormons were present. Tho Federal
officials were bitterly denounced.—
Brigham Young was excited. Ho

Tho Atlantic Monthly, excellent Bad
ical authority, estimates that, during,
the year 1870, tlio people of tho Uni
ted States paid, in taxes, to tho gener
al government, ten dollars and sixty
two cents a head; and yet the party
that collected this enormous tax lias
the effrontery to come before the peo
ple, asking lor support, at tho ballot
box, from the producers and working
men of tho country, who have this tax
to pay.

The €fiu»
THE UNDEKSIG NED, having resumed the manufacture of the above Gio,
pr pose to niuke it what it was before the war—“ The favorite of the
South.” Our work stands upon its merits, and wo think this a sufficient guar
antee. "We have secured the services of some of the best mechanical talent
in the Northern shops, in addition to some of the best workmen from the shop
of the lute Samuel Griswold. Mr. Chas. Gardner, who served eight years
apprenticeship under E Carver & Cos., at East Bridgewater, Mass., and who
was employed as Superintendent of the Double Wells shop, from the com
meucement of the manufacture ol the Moore Cotton Gin, until i's suspension,
is again at his post, and will give each Gin bis personal inspection before it
loaves the shop.
In calling the attention of planters to our Cotton Gins, we desire that they
bould notice the improvements wo offer, which are substantially as follows
.A. PORTABLE ROLL BOX,
For obtaining any inclination of the Gin Rib or Grate, is used ; the object of
which is to improve in the quantity ginned, lessen tbe quantity and improve
the quality ot lint. Also, to gin damp or wot cotton; to altor the picking or
separating the lint from the seed—either to take more lint off, nr less lint from
tho seed, as circumstances require. Wo use both the common Roll Box and
a Swinging Front. The hitter is arranged to let out all tbe seeds and hulls
in a moment, and is very easily managed.
THR GIN BRUSH
We meke, cannot be excelled by any hair brush used. Tho bristles are all
drawn in by a cord, and the timber is all selected from the best lumbor, well
seasoned • and every brutih is made perfectly fire and rat proof.
CYLINDER AND BRUSH BOXES,
Are both oscillating and plain. Can furnish either, as may bo ordered. We
lino them with tho best babbit metal.
GHSi SAWS.
Wo make all the saws that we use from the best English Cast Steel, an det
any size that may be desired. We employ, to superintend and rnanufauatu
our saws, one of Ike best saw-makers in tho Soutn, aud our machinery for the
manufacture of Gin Saws cannot bo excelled.
COTTON SEED CRUSHING MIBB
We are the only successful manufacturers of this important and useful in
vention—tho Cotton Gin, with the Cotton Seed Crushing Mill attached. I
will hardly be necessary here to allude to the immense saving and economical
use of crushed cotton seed as a manure. We received a gold medal as a pre
mium, from the Fair of the Cotton Planter’s Convention, held in Macou, Ga.,
1860, for tho best Colton Seed Crusher attached to the Gin Stand, to crush
the seed as fast as it escapes from the Roll. We refer to some of the many
certificates that we have on the subject.
OF GINS.
We keep constantly on hand seed cotton, and every Gin is tried before it
leaves the shop —old cr new ones.
OF OLD GINTS.
We have a complete assortment of the very best Cotton Gin Machinery in
tho country, and make repairing of old Gms a specialty. Planters will do
well to send in their old Gins and have them made as good as new, at a much
less cost than anew one can be bought for. Send on your orders and old
Gins early
We aro also authorized by Messrs. Findlay’s Sons to receive orders orders
for Findlay & Craig’s Screw Cotton Press, and Craig’s Patent Portable Horse
Power, and Castings generally
