Greasing Wagons.— The following
extract from the Scientific Press refers
to a matter of so much importance,
and one so much neglected, that we
have no hesitation in bringing it be
fore the attention of farmers. :
“Greasing buggios and wagons is
of more importance than some people
imagine. Many a wheel is ruined by
oiling it too plentifully. A well-mado ■
wheel will endure constant wear from !
ten to twenty years, if care is taken to ,
use the right kind and proper amount
of oil; hut if this matter is not attended j
to, the wheel will he used up in five
or six years, or probably sooner. Lard
should never be used on a wagon, for
it will penetrate the hub and work its
way out around the tenons of the
spokes and spoil the wheel. Castor
oil is a good material for use on an
iron axle, Just enough should be ap
plied to a spindle to give it a light
coating. This is bettor than more,
for the surplus put on will work out
at the ends and he forced by the shoul
ders and nut into the huh around out
side the boxes. To oil an axletreo,
first wipe the spindles cloan with a
doth, wet with turpentine, if it won’t
wipe without it. On a buggy or car
riage, wipe and clean off the back and
front ends of the hubs and then apply
a very small quantity of castor oil or
some especially prepared lubricator
near the shoulders and point.”
How s3ilt is Muniiinciiirod ut
'link's Island.
The island bearing this familiar name
has been conspicuous for its produc
tion of salt, of which millions of bush
els finds its way into the markets of
the world, our own country receiving
about half a million bushels annually.
Balt is obtained from sea wator, by ei
ther extreme cold or heat; hero it is
made by solar evaporation. Lying
under the intense rays of a tropical
sun, the sea soon gives up its water
and leaves its salt behind ; and were
it not for the influx of the mighty riv
ers of the tropics and the general sys
tem of currents and tides, the ocean
lying near tho equator would soon be
come one vast sea of salt. For centu
ries, advantage has been taken of this
natural process, and, in dry seasons,
over a thousand natives are at work,
at the different stages of the prepara
tion of salt for tho market. The sea
water is lot into tho basins or pans, by
a canal, cut through the Leach, which
separates the 6ea from the interior la
goons and affords a good foundation
for tho town proper. This beach is
a few rods—perhaps ten or fifteen—in
width, and back of this, extending to
wards the bluffs about a quarter of a
mile, was originally a marsh, which
has been converted into salt tanks. —
These tanks are shallow, with a vary
ing depth of from eight to eighteen
inches, tho bottom mado of stiff marl
or clay, and they cover several hun
dred acres of this evaporating ground,
divided into a great many compart
ments, varying Irom a quarter of an
acre to two or three acres in size.—
These are separated from each other
by low stone w r alls, which also serve
as walks. In the middle of these
walls is an impervious clay which pre
vents the passage of water from one
tank to another, unless by the little
gateways or sluices, through which
tne supply is regulated. The water
in these pans is found in all stages of
evaporation. In some, you see tho
clear, limpid water of the ocoan, in
others, it has a roiled appearance, and,
when far advanced in tho procoss, as
sumes a beautiful pink color. Tho
first pond allows the subsidence of
mud and other physical impurities, and
is, consequently, tho deepest. As tho
fluid runs from tank to tank, it grad
ually becomes thicker, giving up its
water and becoming more and more
concentrated until it reaches the last
and shallowest pan, whore crystals be
fin to appear on its surfaco. The
rst crystals are the purest, and aro
raked off with an iron hoe. Exposed
for a still longer time, more crystals
form, but these mostly collect on the
bottom and sides, and are scraped off
when the “mother liquor” is drawn
away. They aro then hauled in carts
to the beach, whore piles like great
white snow banks, may be seen from
the ship’s deck. Tho salt is more or
less impure—the chief impurity being
chloride of magnesium—and, to get
rid of this, the heaps aro covered with
straw or hay ; the chloeide of magno
sium, being deliquescent, absorbs
moisture from the atmosphere and
drains off, leaving tho pure chloride of
sodium—common salt—behind. To
produce the same result, sometimes
slacked lime is placed in the last tanks.
The making of salt by solar evapora
tion depends greatly upon the absenco
pf rain; and Turk’s island has this
advantage, a3 well as extreme heat in
summer. In addition, the trade winds
constantly agitate the surlaco of the
ponds, and thus facilitate evaporation.

Tlie South—lt* Labor System—
The A’egro ill Town ami
Country.
The South thus epitomizes one of
the valuable letters of the correspon
dents of the New York Journal of
Commerce on the above subject:
The mass of the Southern whites
are perfectly friendly to tho negroes,
and desirous to livo in amity with
them, recognizing the changed rela
tions of the two classes since tho war.
They offer to tho negroes terms which
the latter do not and cannot reasona
bly complain of as illiberal. In parts
of the South where labor is scarce the
froedmen can almost make their own
terms, and if anything goes wrong
with the crops the loss falls chiefly on
the white employer and not on the col
ored field hands. At the very worst 1
the freedman can make his living in
the South, ami iu a great number of
instances lay up a huudsome sum of <
money by tho end of the season. A
little work keeps him from starving ;
and resolute toil, such as small white
farmers at tho North are accustomed j
to yields w hat to him are riches.
Tho general condition of tho coun- j
try negroes of the South, when they ,
aro not under demoralizing influences
of carpet-pag politicians, is bettor than i
before tho war. The bane ofthofreed
n:an is politics. In tbo cities ho is I
peculiarly, exposed to that pernicious j
agent, and, consequently, in tlioso pla
ces lie is apt to be indolent, drunken 1
and pilfering. Other causes in cities
also tend to this end, hut mainly to
politics playing upon tho self-esteem
and ignorance of tho negro, may be
attributed to his debasement there
Carpet-baggers and unscrupulous time
servers of local origin. The extrava
gant idea of “forty acres and a mule,”
which passes for a burlesque phrase,
!in an actuality at the South. Tho ne
groes have boon taught that every ono
; of them that voted the carpet-bag
| ticket would receive that substantial
remark. In the more northern of the
ex-slave States that lying promiso is
|no longer believed. There is a limit
to negro credulity, and the white
knaves have passed it. Hence in
j those States the negroes are turning
their hacks on their old deceitful pa
trons, and joining their old masters,
1 who at least never cheated them with
such false promises. At present the
illusion of great personal benefits to
come to the negro from radical rule
generally obtains only in Texas and
Mississippi, and will eventually bo dis
pelled there also.
i Precisely in proportion as the col
ored man realizes that freedom is an
. absolution from work, and that what
he is to receive must be earned hon
> estly and not through tne tortuous
ways of politics he will be happy and
I contented, and grow to the highest
stature of civilization possible to his
race. The condition precedent to his
, completed development as a useful and
orderly member in the Stnto is his re
jection of the false teachings of thoso
, who fill his head wi h absurd ambi
tions and sow dissentions between him
and his best friend after all, his old
master.
Itn!ci to Make a Farmer Poor.
1. Not taking a good agricultural
paper.
I 2. Keeping no account of home op
: orations. Paying no attention to the
! maxim : “A stitch in tirno saves nine,”
in regard to tho sowing of grain and
j the planting of seed at the proper sea
-1 son.
3. Leaving the reapers, ploughs,
, cultivators, etc., uncovered from the
rain and the heat of tho sun. More
money is lost in this way than most
people aro willing to believe
4. Permitting broken implements to
bo rcatterod over the larm until they
aro irreparable. Ono of the Seven
Wiso Men of Greece said only this to
prove his senso: “The time to mond a
plough is when tho plough breaks ”
5. Attending auction sales and pur
chasing all kinds of trumpery, becauso
in tho words of tho vender tho articles
are “very cheap.”
0. Allowing fences to remain unre
paired until strange cattle are found
grazing in j-our fields and bruising
the fruit trees.
7. Planting fruit trees with the ex
pectation of having fruit, without giv
ing the trees hall tho attention requir
ed to make them produce.
Au Accomplished Farmer.
! The farm is a very complicated af
fair, and necessarily comprises within
its boundaries many well-furnislied
work shops, and among its laborers
many thorough mechanics. Thus for
perlect development of t/io labor-sa
ving methods necessary to tho profita
ble working of a largo, well-furnished
farm, a thorough business man and
well-educated farmer, as head mana
ger, as well accountant or bookkeeper
well versed in markets and commer
cial matters, finance included, is need
ed. Then a gardener and florist, a
blacksmith, carpenter, and wheel
wright, and engineo aro necessary.
A well trained herdsman and a shep
herd aro requisite, in addition to tho
ordinary laborers, as plow men, etc
On many largo estates in England and
Scotland, and on some in our own
country, all these are employed, the
proprietor having a general oversight
only, and interfering personally in no
details. Competency in the several
subordinates being required as a qual
ification for their situations, their du
ties are properly performed, and a reg
ular routine becomes established
Now if all theso aro found requisite
on a large farm, where.tlie work is ex
actly similar, ouly differing in extent,
to that of a small farm, it lollows that
a small farmer, working his own land,
will succeod hotter, as ho knows more
about all tho things necessary to be
done.
j As ho will find occasion to perform
i many of these offices himself, ho must
be his own business man, must lay
out his work, and be competent to
command his hired help, so that he
may use their services to the best ad
vantage. He must be his own ac
countant, or many little losses will es
cape him, and in the aggregate they
will be enough to make themselves
seriously felt. He must be mechanic
enough to build a shed, a hay bar
rack, a wagon-rack, a harrow, or
sometimes a sled, or put anew tongue
to a wagon ; he ought to be able to
lay up wall or build a stone fence, or
should know how it ought to be done ;
he should be able to cut a screw on a
bolt or burr, or uso a cold-chissel, or
splice a rope, or use a hammer, and
drill and blast a rock. In lact, there
is scarcely any knowledge either in
the arts, sciences, commerce, or liter
ature, but would be help to a farmer.
A farmer thus educated Las, besides
tho material advantages he enjoys, a i
great facility for appreciating the
beauties of nature with which ho is I
brought into closo daily contact, and '
will thus learn to lovo his profession.

THE UNDERSIGNED, hi\ing resumed the manufacture of tbe above Gin,
1 pr> pogo to make it what it was before tne war—“ The favorite of the
South.” Our work stands upon its merits, and we think this a sufficient guar
antee. AY e have secured the services of some of the best mechanical talent
in the Northern shops, in iddition to some of the best workmen from the shop
of the late 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 Doable Wells shop, from the com
meueement of the manufacture of the Moore Cotton Gin, until its suspension,
is again at his post, and will give each Gin his person ai inspection biDre it
leaves the shop.
In calling the attention of planters to our Cotton Gins, we desire that they
hould notice the improvements we offer, which are substantially as follows
-A- PORTABLE POLL BOX,
For obtaining any inclination of the Giu Rib or Grate, is used ; the object of
which is to improve in the quantity ginned, lessen the quantity and improve
the quality ot lint. Also, to gin damp or wot cotton; to alter the picking or
separating the lint from the seed—either to take more lint off, nr less lint from
the sued, as circumstances require. We use both the common Roll Box and
a Swinging Front. The latter is arranged to let out all tho seeds and hulls
in a moment, and is veiy easily managed.
THE GIIST BRUSH
We meko,cannot be excelled by any hair ornsb used. Tho bristles are all
drawn in by a cord, an I the timber is all selected from tho best iumbor, well
seasoned • and every brunh is made perfectly fire and rat proof.
CYLINDER AND BRUSH BOXES,
Are both oscillating and plain. Crn furnish either, as may be ordered. We

COTTOIST SEED CRUSHING MILL
We are the only successful manufacturers of this important and useful in
vention—the Cotton Gin, with the Cotton Beed Crushing Mill attached. I
will hardly be necessary here to allude to the immense saving and economica l
UHe of crushed cotton seed as a manure. We received a gold medal as a pre
mium, from the Fair of the Cotton i’lanter’s Convention, held in Macou Ga ’
1860, for tho best Colton Seed Crusher attached to the Gin Stand to cru-h
the seed as fast as it escapes from the Roll. We refer to some of the mnnv
certificates that we have on the subject. 3
