Messrs. Editors : Ah hough there arc many
able lianas engaged in lire Agrieul
lural papers of the day scraps upon the nature,
making and applying manures, 1 feel disposed
to set down a little of my practice in that line
for the Virginia Farmer, thinking it proha hie ,
that the iin|>ortancc of the subject has not h< eu
generally seen by our Fanners hvre 'kjul.
For truly 1 deem it a business of the first consi
deration in our part of tbe cr uotry, where the •
beat farms have a I irgc portion of poor bmi
that ought to be brought into profitable odbvtVj.
lion. If I were to ntf-mpt to answer the q*> - $-
tion so often asked, “ why are formers of this
part of Virginia generally, so far in the back .
ground ?” I should say that, next to good man.
age meat, generally, it is owing mainly to the
•haUK.-fiil neglect in making mi l applying man- i
urea. Many fanners within the small circle ol
rnv acquaintance, have their grouml divided in-M
to three shifts, these aru doomed to ho ploughed
ond scratched from year to year, allowing it no
time to stand in grass, and indeed some never
had the honor of a seeding with artificial grass ;
yielding less and 1c ss every year, having no j
benefit of manure in any way except what i*
dropped by the cat'le, while grazing olf the
scanty herbage allowed to corny, until they will
scarcely produce a crop worth the labour ol
planting. Talk to these farmers aliout making
five fields of their farms —“ O, I should starve.
] can hardlv make out now, and w hat should 1
do, if, instead of cultivating half ora third of
my ground, I cultivate one fifth V Talk to
them about making majture, they will tell you
they make all they can of such materials as
they have, and quit** likely they never haul
their corn stalks from the fields, or so much as a
few loads of leaves from the woods, and com
monly, in winter, their cattle are fed in an open
field, and through the grass season sullered to
run at large, day and night ; not penned at night
except the milch cows. They say they have
not time to do these tilings, and truly I believe
the big field, and big farm mania does in a men- j
sure, put it out of their power. 1 have been
told by some, that they had a quantity of man
ure at their stables, but such was their press 01,
business, that they had not time even to carry
it out. But lam departing somewhat from the
subject proposed, w hich was to oiler a little ol
my practice, &c. which though not the best.,
may be of service to some who are setting out
upon the plan that I commenced farming upon.
For 1 thought it would he useless for me to at
tempt to make manure to restore all my exhaust
ed land. So 1 must depend upon rest and good
ploughing, and if possible a coat of grass and
weeds turned under. But 1 found that what lit
tie would grow upon poor land, w hen ploughed
in, turned out to be mostly water or something j
not much belter. .So I determined to make man-'
ure.—And I will now tell you, in part, how 1
do it.
I will speak first, of my winter fixtures, which
are composed of three lots, (I intend to add the
fourth) in order to divide the cattle according
to their age, condition, Ac. all of which are
provided with permanent shelters, of size sutli
cient lor the number of cattle commonly kept
in each lot. It would be better if all these lots 5
were concave in the centre, hut mine are only ;
level, and in fact some on a gentle declivity, i
In order to have them w inter quarters ready
for the reception of the stock as soon as the,
grazing season is ended, 1 lose 1 no lime after the
full of the leaf, that can possibly be spared from
gathering com and seeding wheat, until they are
well supplied with litter from the woods ; and
if 1 do not cover the leaves with ditch bank, or
surface earth of some sort, I lay on a covering
of corn stalks to guard against the winds blow, j
ingoff the leaves. Corn stalks are carefully
saved and mostly used for this purpose. The!
cattle are then put up in their winter quarters, I
and there kept night and day, except so long as,
is necessary to go to water once a day. If the!
forage given should not keep the lots sufficient-'
ly littered, (which with me never happens,) 1 1
take care, from time to lime, to supply it from|
the woods. I would observe hero, byway of'
digression, that 1 never sutler stock of any kind'
to go in winter upon any tilling land I have.'
The injury done by treading in winter is con
eiderablc. As the object is to get the contents’
of used lots upon the corn land in spring, 1 fro-1
queutly have the whole mass stirred up, and
properly mixed together, ami the oftener this is
done, the better, ll can be expeditiously exe- j
cuted by means of a long single colter fixed soi
as to take the ground freely. In relation to the!
manure made from my stables, 1 do not carry
it on the cattle yard, as practised by some, but
endeavour to keep it us dry as possible, until it I
is to be applied to use. Though if my lots w ere 1
bo arranged as to lose none of the ley by hea
vy rains, I might do so.
I come next to speak of summer lots, or cow.
pens. These I have in a strip of woods left
for that purpose at a placo so located as that 1
can take the cattle in from every field I have.
They are three in number, one for calves and 1
yearlings, the other two for a change of all the |
balance of the cattle, whenever one lot is either r
ready to cast out or becomes too wet and Jilty
for the health of the cattle. In onlor to have
ready fur the stock when let out to graze in the
spring, 1 employ all suitable times in w inter, af
ter the crop of corn is secured, in collecting
leaves, rotten oak wood, weeds, Ac. until com-!
plcted ; for if this work is deferred until want- 1
ed, I find it difficult to spare time to get a sulii-,
ciency. Indeed this is the principal part of our,
winter labour. For when the lots are suffici- !
cntly supplied for the present, wc pile up more
in the lots to have it ready to spread out when
the other is trod enough. Thus, having this' 1
start, I can find time along in summer to sup. ,
ply the then deficiency. It is desirable to have
the contents of these pens ready to go out upon
the wheat. To that end, the oftener thev are 1
worked over, as before observed, the better, pro- ,
vided there bean abundance of litter furnished.! .
When the cattle first go to grass in a field, nivj;
custom is to have them let out their jr-us about 7 ! •
o’clock, A. M. —drove up again at 10—let out !
at 3 P. M. where they remain till 0, and are; •
then brought up for the night. And when the'
pasture has pretty much declined, they arc let 1
out their pens after breakfast and suffered to j
graze until late i:t winter, and by frequently j r
giving sail in the lots, keeps them pretty much »
in motion, which favors the end in view’. It ! J
might be proper to give some statement as to the i
amount of stock kept and the quantity of man
ure made. As to the stock, I can state that my
number of horses, for the last four or live years
has varied from four to six, at present four. 1
Horned cattle from thirty to thi rty-tive. Sheep,
none. As to the quantity of manure made, 1
cannot say, but would suppose from three to four j
hundred loads, or perhaps more. a
Thus I have mentioned the means used terju
raise most of the manure. However, there are* '
some other savings w hich help out, say the hog;
pen, into w inch 1 cost a quantity of fitter and|
surface earth, which would be best if composed,-
pretty much of fine sand. I also have a pit or,
hole, V.!deb receives the draining from about mjljf
•stables. —This is frequently supplied with road,
rapißgs, or anv li'_'ht earth, which makes at
go<*d manure for light find.
YV,-i hoc iny paper is out, end perhaps it is
well, for when 1 begin upon this subject, I have ‘
no o’iii-r stopping place.

Mrs. WASHINGTON POTTS, the story which has!
been distinnuislied by the unanimous approbation ot r

merit are undoubted, will be published in our next number.
It is a lively picture of life and manners, drawn with
gr.-nt skill mid discrimination, and a strict fidelity lonn
jture. Wo venture to predict for it a tribute of general
applause.
Among the other stories submitted in competition, there
are many of great merit. These would have been special
|ly noticed and commended by the committee, but for
I obvious reasons such a course was considered unadvis
| able. Tin y will bo published in the succeeding numbers
'of our work, as opportunity may oiler.
Wc hope to make the October Number of the L vov's

ipreparation the portraits of several distinguished in

We take this occasion to remind our friend* that the

therefore be necessary for those who wish complete

by M. D. J. SLADE, UF MACON, Ga.
“Leg* tot um, sci Cs scire tot am." —“ Head all, U you
would know all.”
r BMiE people of Georgia are ranch in want ol a me
i f din in of intelligence which will promptly transmit
fto them the “ Proceedings” of their LegtshuurO. We
aro not only gcnerallv, but indi\ idtudly concerned mull
! j acts of legislation, because these acts involve personal
as well as political rights, between w.itch there Ox
fists a most intimate connexion. If is the interest then,
of every man in -ae lommuniiy to he timely acquainted
with the action ol our representatives itpou these rights.
•' This is a desideratum —to supple which the Joc rxal is
, ' intended. At the present we labor under much moon
ill veniencc for the want of it. For near, and sometimes
I more than three months after the expiration of the Ses
sion, the Laws of the State, with a tew exceptions, are
Us a “ sealed Book” to the groat mass ot the people ; and
i frequently, such are tiie injurious effects produced by
this dolav, that men have been known, w ho. in obe-
Ulicncc to a preceding, have actually violated a Itnbsr
. lyneiit law’ which had been reversed or modified—not
knowing that a ncir had been submitted tor an old law.
In addition to the entire proceedings of the Legisla
. tnre, the Journal and History, will contain the gener
al intelligence of the day, and its interest will he in
creased hv faithful reports of the transactions of the
important Rkuress Convention of Georgia, which coti-

The Debates in the Convention, as well as those in the

ceedings of each day laid in extensn before the public on
the subsequent morning, and immediately transmitted
to any part of the tfiate to which the paper may bo or
dered.
The large and interesting mass of information which
jrhis Publication will contain, and the great expense
i which must be incurred to •■arry it into operation will
j require a liberal patronage, and such a patronage the
editor Hatters himself will lie extended to him.
It is unnecessary to enlarge on the convenience and
important utility of such a publication to members of the
Legislature, in enabling them to ascertain immediately
tiie precise state of any measure in which they arc in
t forested and to keep their constituents advised of the
progress of public business, without the abstraction ol
time and attention from their special duties, expended
I in letter w riting.

and will be put to subscribers at the price of Five Dol

to the undertaking, and to make a return of any subscri
