SHORTTALKS WITH FARMERS ON
FARM TOPICS.
Fodder Pulling???KaJnit and Its Value???Propor Caro
or Pasture Lands???Washing Butter???Wheal
Rust???Harrowing Corn???An Item of
Interest to Praotieal Farmers.
From the May reports it is evident that
southern farmers have every reason to look
forward to bountiful crops. In the majority
the states there has been a marked increase in
the area devoted to food and forage crops,
While the area of cotton has been diminished
in some sections, in others it has been largely
increased. Favorable weather conditions hnvi
prevailed everywhere during the past week
and our farmers have made the most of their
opportunities.
Fodder Pcluxo.???In the southern tier of
ton states the characteristic work for this
month is pulliug fodder???and we may add that
this mode of providing long forage is peculiar
to the south. So far as we know, the practice
of pulling the blades from the corn is not fol
lowed outside of the cotton states, or, at most
to but a limited extent. In has been the fash
ion with some agricultural writers to condemn
the practice as unwise and unprofitable, in that
it lessens the yield of corn more thnn the value
of the fodder, and, furthurmore, that the re
turns are too small for the labor bestowed, lint
their views are too sweeping, when they go t>
the extent of insisting that it is better to let th
blades ??????dry up" on the stalks under all circum
stances.
If corn has been properly cultivated
seasons are reasonably good, the ears will
generally be sufficiently matured to permit the
removal???of the blades, without serious injur*'
the grain, and yet before the blades tlieinse!
have lost their color and vitality. It is worthy
of remark that on fresh soils abounding in hu
mus the blades remain a rich green color many
days after the shucks have turned brown and
become loose, aud the grains well glazed
When this stage has been reached the ear will
??uHer no injury if the blades be removed.
Tlicro is an idea prevalent among farmers
that the blades of corn must reach a certain
stage which they call ???ripeness??? before it is
proper to strip them, and that this stage is
nearly coincident with the ripening of the
shuck, or just before the blades begin to fade.
We think this is an error. The blades will
make more and better fodder if pulled about
the time the silks first appear; and the longer
the stripping is deferred after the period of
silking Ine less valuable will be the product.
Of course it will not do to deprive the stalk of
its blndes until the ear is sufficiently matured.
We therefore must be content to perform this
operation at as early a |>criod ns can be done
without injury.
As to the comparative value of the labor
necessary to secure the fodder and that of the
fodder itself, we have a word to say. It is a
poor aere of corn thnt will not yield 200 pounds
of cured fodder, and a poor hand that cannot
pull two ncrex of such corn per day, including
^taking up??? and putting in tho stack or horn,
which would give us ns the result of one day???s
labor of one hand, 400 pounds of fodder, which,
at 50 cents per hundred, would be $2. 8o it
will certainly ???pay??? to pull fodder at this rate
???provided there is no more profitablo work in
which the farmer can engage, and which can
not be deferred. It must be borne in mind
that the fodder is a necessary incident to the
cron of corn; it has cost nothing to produce it
ana it will prove an nlmost total loss???less the
labor of saving it-???if not harvested.
Notwithstanding what we have written, wo
think farmers ought to provido a more ubun-
<lant and cheaper supply of forage than is af
forded bv the blades of the corn crop. The
supply from this source is necessarily limited
by the area in corn, and will never he suffi
cient on a farm where tho proper number of
well fed auimals are kept.
As to the method of ???saving fodder:??? It
ought to bo cured with as little exposure to the
nun and dew as possible. Commence thunis
morniug aftew tho dew is oil???. Hung tho blades
two or threo stalks hy the tails, pressing the
latter between tho cor and stalk. Continue
this until tho afternoon, when the blades may
he tied in the usual ???hands??? and hunt* on the
stalk. After 0 o???clock commenco ???taking up??????
und continue until all is secured that was pull
cd beforo noon of the Hamo day, allowing the
afternoon pulling to remain until next day.
8ome farmers succeed In making excellent r u 1-
<ler by taking up every day all that was pulled
during tho same day, leaving none on the
stalks. Fodder saved in this wny cannot be
ntackcd away permanently at once, but must
he thrown loosely into the horn, or stacked
and then opened and restackcd < r stored.???

each tree.
Tho change made hy the kainit was
plete. No finer growth of wood and leaves
can now bo found. The trees where I used
the ashes, were, after a fair trial, so far behind
the others in vigor and health, to save them I
used kainit also, but as yet they are behind
them in growth.
Proper Cark op Pasture Lands,???It is al
ways beet to have the pasture lands on every
farm divided into several lots so that stock eau be
chauged from one into the other. This will
allow the grasses in each to renew itp growth
and sustain much more stock than if contin
ually cropped close to the ground. Where cat
tle are continually runiiiug over tho pasture,
especially if it is a large one, the uneaten por
tion will become dry and distasteful, hut which
horses and sheep would eat if they had access
to the pastures uIho. The health of animals
when pastured is much benefited by an oc-
casionu! change. A two weeks interval is
often very desirable. Tho neglect to atteud
to the proper sub-division of the pasture lauds
into lots of a given number of acres, is mainly
to be attributed to the comparatively high prico
of fencing materials, and tne labor required to
build them. Since tho introduction of barbed
wires, this objection 1ms much less weight.
Tho objection to the use of barbed wires can bo
measurably obviated bv using for the top
wire galvanized ???Buckthorn??? wire, which is
strong and can be easily seen by the stock.

tions, such as
Kaixit and itr Valur.???Of late there bos
been much difference of opinion among scien
tific agriculturists and horticulturists ns to the
mammal value of thnt particular German pot
ash salt, now known to commerce as ???Kainit/
For our own part we hnvo taken neither sido
of the nuention, preferring to publish wlmt
others have to any on tho subject. The follow
ing is on?? of those ???says??? taken from the
New York Farmer???s Review:
Kainit is extensively used ns a fertilizer in
Germany, and is coming into quite general
use in the east. It is, however, comparatively
little known here, and the following in regard
to it by Mr. Eli Minch, in one of our eastern
exchanges, will be of interest to the readers of
tho Review.
Kainit is a mineral salt found in Gennatiynt
n depth of from 300 to 1,200 feet below the sur
face, and in such abundance as to be practical
ly inexhaustible, being found and mined near
Btrossfurt: it is also called fitrassfurt salt.
Its great fertilizing )>owcr is largely due to
tho largo nmount of sulphate of notasli it con
tains as well ns other chemical suits. It is
imported into this country finely pulverized,
and put in sacks of 200 i??ou!id* each, and is v(
verv easv application.
I copy???from bulletin No. XXVII of the New
Jersey agricultural experiment station, its re
port of tho amount of potash thut kainit con
tains. ???Station analysis. No. 711; kainit,
Alexaneer Kerr k Bros., Philadelphia; |??ota*h
per 100 pounds of kainit, 12.H0 imunds; cost of
j>ota*h per pound 03.9c.; cost of kainit $10 per
ton.???
Kainit, by the station analysis, contains 12.80
pounds of potash per 100 pound* or 250 pounds
per ton. Leached ashes often contain lens than
thirty pound* per ton of potash. Kainit nt $10
iR??r ton, good wood ashes should, to be enual,
be worth $4 per ton. The value of sulphate
and chloride of magnesia, supplying as they
do chlorine, sulphuric acid and magnesia, in
noils that arc deficicut in them Is sometimes
worth the cost of the whole. Kainit is also
vahinhle to mix with compost or for stable use.
to absorb bad smells or prevent the escape of
free ammonia.
For the above uses it is hotter thnn land
S taster, being more soluble, and also from the
ispoaition of the sulphate of magnesia with
ammonia, to form a double salt of magne??ia
and ammonia, fixing all escaping nrnelU and
free ammonia.
Kainit, similar to ashes, is caustic, and must
not be put in contact with roots of plants, for
when applied in so concentrated a. form it will
burn the plants as quickly as ashes. The best
plan to apply kainit is to now broadcast
the land aa evenly as possible at the rate of 200
or 300 pounds per acre, as long before the crop
is planted as possible, but if that cannot be
done, it can be sown after the crop is planted,
an??l will mix with the soil while cultivating
the crop. I have used six tons of kainit on
corn, beans, potatoes and buckwheat with the
best of results at the rate of 500 pounds p**r
acre. A smaller quantity oftener applied will
be better is most cases.
On fruit trees its value cannot be over-esti
mated, especially on peach trees. I have a
small orchard ot 300 one year old peach trees,
that before I used the kainit were yellow and
slick-looking. The leave* were all curled,
and were so hopeless-looking that I was ad
vised to dig them up and burn them. I ap
plied 500 pounds of kainit broadcast per acre... , . , . , . t ,
