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.

ALSO, A GENUINE PATTERN OF 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.
