Manure in the Future.
After the first fertility of our
lands, west and east, says Mr. R.
| S. Dodge, has gone abroad by the
ship load, the supply of barn-yard
manure, even under the most fa
| vorable circumstances, must be
! entirely inadequate to maintain
them in good condition. The value
i of barn-yard manure seems to he
highly overrated—not in its use
fulness, but in its quantity. Sup
pose that even a careful farmer
■ should devote his lands to dairy
purposes, and restore to the Held
every atom of his animal manure,
where will he get the valuable
elements he has sold in the shape
of milk or butter, beef, pork, or
cheese. These are gone, never to
return, except lie can find them
in some of nature’s gifts. In a
country like England, continually
: importing largely and consuming
I rich animal and vegetable foods,
tiie land may be constantly be
| coining more productive if there
! the farmers utilize all their rc
| fuse. But, with who supply
these foods, the conclusion ap
I pears inevitable that our lands
are daily becoming less produc-.
I tive, at present visibly so only in
j the east; but there is a lino di-
I viding our land into two parts—
ono of surplus, tho other of defi
ciency—and this line is slowly,
but surely, travelling westward,
in the yet visible wake of "tho pio
! neer. Mr. Dodge advises the ini
| portance of resorting to all known
j and even untried means to gather
j valuable, compact, portable fer :
; tilizers from every natural source
; —the air, tho rocks, the seas—
and hail, with delight any addi-
I tion to their number as an impor
i taut ally in the increase and prac
! tical extension of profitable agri
i culture.
Clawson and Fultz Wheat.
The experience of the past year
has done much towards lessening
: the distrust of Clawson wheat oc
| casioned by the resolutions a
dopted at the Michigan State
; Millers’ Convention condemning
1 it as in many respects inferior to
older varieties. Quite a number
I of trustworthy agriculturists from
| various sections of that State,
who persisted in sowing the Claw
son wheat notwithstanding the
protest of the millers, add their
testimony to that of a host of ol.h
thers all over tho country in fa
vor of this kind. It is fast spread
ing over a large extent of soil
| and climate, with excellent re
! suits reported in nearly all cases.
The character isties which most
| strongly recommend the Clawson
j variety, judging from the experi
ence of numerous correspondents,
| are its large yield and early ma
; turity, it being equal to the Med-
I iterranean in this last respect.—
Another great advantage is that
it does not shell readily. It has
a white kernel, large and plump,
with red, bald chaff; the straw is
stitt - at bottom and of medium
height. 8o far it has proved har
dy, comparatively free from rust
and not so liable to attacks from
the Hessian tly as many other
kinds.
The Fultz wheat, which lias <fl
so a great many admirers, ap
pears to be specially prized
where white wheat fails to do
well, and in sections where suc
cessive failures witli old kinds
had led farmers to believe their
lands would rio longer yield re
munerative crops. This ia a
smooth wheat with short straw,
and has the reputation of stand
ing up well. While the berries
are not large they are plump and
: full.
A Simple Way to Tighten Wagon
TIREB.
1 have found the following way
to tighten wagon tires to be suc
| cessful: Apply leather rings be
tween the shoulders on the outer
: ends of the spokes and the cor
responding portions of the fellies,
which may be done as follows: —
Procure a number of small pieces
of leather, from an inch and a
; half to two inches in diameter;
with a sharp knife and compasses,
ior with a cutting punch, make
round holes in the centres of these
pieces, and make a straight cut
from thqpoles to the outer edge
of the pieces so as to form open
rings. The holes must be made
of a sizo that will nicely
tenons on the outer ends of the
spokes. Place a fulcrum on the
top of tho hub, on which place
your lever, with its short end un
der the felly, near a spoke; have
an assistant to bear down on the
outer end sufficiently to raise the
felly, and expose the shoulder
and tenon of the spoke; open the
leather ring, and fit it nicely a
round the tenon, holding it to its
place while your assistant relaxes
the lever, and settles the felly
firmly upon the leather by a blow
or two on the tire. Having re
peated the process with a suffi
cient number of spokes to make
the tiro all right, trim otf the pro
jecting leather even with the sur
face of the spokes, and your task
will he done. If your pieces of
leather should he spongy, ham
mer them down some before
using.—B. R. in Western Rural.
Farm Experiences.
H inter Grazing or Turf Oats.
—All, who can get the seed, are
now sowing the winter grazing or
turf oats, and throwing all others
aside. They are decidedly the
finest oats we have ever hiul in
this country. They never tail to
make a fine crop, and the most
important part of it, is, they are
sown in the fall, and furnish a
fine green pasture all winter for
any kind of stock, and in the
spring you still get a heavy crop
of seed; 1 have seen hunches of
them from one grain have from
fifty to eighty good heads, which
proves its value as a sod, or pro
lection to save land from wasting
as well as for seed.—J. R. Grubb,
Sweet Water, Tenn.
Ashes for Grass Lands.— There
can be no doubt that ashes make
valuable dressing for grass land,
but they may he put on in such
amount as to injure the condition
for ploughing. Their tendency is
to make heavy land heavier. I
have seen clay soil made cloddy
by their application in considera
ble amount. But on grass I think
ashes rarely come amiss, and I hey
are a special fertilizer for pota
toes.—W. A. Armstrong, Elmira.
How to Plant Peaches. —The
way f plant them, is to dig a hole
in the ground,•say six or eight
inches, plant as soon its the pulp
is off, and let them remain in (he
ground all winter. In the spring
take them up, crack (he stones,
and plant the meat. The first,
they [grew five feet; out of one
hundred, not one bad peach, all
natural.—D. 11. S., Portsmouth.
Turpentine and Cesspools. —
Turpentine I also found to be a
powerful deodorizer. A table*
spoonful added to a pail of water
will destroy the odor of cesspools
instantly, and in the sick cham
ber will prove.a powerful auxilia
ry in the destruction of germs
and bad odors.-—Thomas Taylor,
J Washington.
Utilizing Apple Cider. 1 con
vert into first class vinegar as fol
lows: Place a strong iron hound
cask ia a warm place, and put in
to it in the first place a few gal
lons of the best vinegar. Then
add once a week an average of a
pint ol cider to each gallon ol
vinegar, till the barrel is full.—
This will give the very best of
vinegar.—J. G. I). Nelson, Lid.
Vaiue of llenTs (jrass and Clo -
ver. —This year I have cut clover
and herds grass from a field that
was seeded in clover eight years
ago—the ninth crop taken from
the ground without reseeding.—
The herds grass and clover aver
aged over four feet in length.—

Mississippi.
“Will you please explain how
burning brush and wood on to
bacco land improves the land 1 —
This is practised by some of our
Virginia planters.” The me- i
thod of burning fuel on beds de ,
signed for tobacco loosens the
ground, destroys the insects and
weeds, and produces the salts, es
pecially potash, in abundance.—
On freshly cleared and burnt
lands some of the largest crops,
and those of best ijuality, have
been produced. 1
