Ten Tun of llerniuil* Vr** ••**> tn 11lt ‘ Outside of tho subjects by which the stranger was Impressed during the recent meeting of tho National Orange, in Charleston, there was one which esoupod tho general observer. The visitors from abroad visited tho Phosphate Works, and were struck with their magnitude and value. But adjoining the Stouo Phosphate Woeks, and on the farm belonging to that company, there was an eight of an acre of poor land, whicit, if proper ly appreciated, will bo of more value to South Oarolinu, ami indeed tho whole South, than these works, em ploying a capital of #400,000. This fragment of an acre was visited and examined by the writer in company with Dr. St. Julien Bavenel, the dis coverer of the value of the phosphate beds. What Charleston and the whole agricultural world owe to the discoverer and tho discovery, time alone will be able to toll. It must be estimated by millions of dollars. This gentleman, whose modesty is equal to his merit, lias made another discovery, or rather put imperfectly ascertained facts into art exact shape, the results of which, though not so wide spread as those of the phosphate discovery, will be of equal value to the whole of the worn lands of the South. The .Southern planter has dreaded Bermuda or joint grass as a pest. Whole plantations liuvo been sold for a song because they were infested with it. Large tracts of land, with comfortable houses upon them, near Charleston, are now lying idle for the same reason, they cannot be sold for enough to pay tin* taxes on them. Their owners arc driven away to the city to seek a meagre ami hard earn ed subsistence, by engaging in mer cantile pursuits, for which their whole previous lives have rendered them unsuited. The eighth of all acre, to which reference lias been made, is in Ber muda grass. It is poor land. The adjoining soil will not produce a remunerative crop of cotton or the cereals, without heavy manuring. Last Spring, Dr. Bax end had this piece of ground well torn tip by a narrow plow, applied lift) pounds of ammoniated itliosphate to it, t lien harrowed and rolled. Tin result was at the rate of ten tons to the acre •of well cured liav. This hay is ex ceeded in x nlue by no other in the market. It is relished by horses, cattle and sheep. Clover and Timo thy both waste, as many of the dried stems are rejected by live stock. There is no waste in liermttda grass hay, as the stems are fine and tender. The writer was informed that on this farm tof the Stono Company some petted mules were supplied wit It Ber muda grass for bedding, and their raekswell tilled with northern hay. The Bermuda grass bedding "its eat en up before the northern hay was ti melted. This hay was carefully analysed by Dr. Raveuel. The result of the an alysis was an average in four cuttings of twelve per cent, albumcnolds, or flesh forming properties, and (!.r>n of ash or mineral matter. The amount of ammonia was large, the precise quantity not recollected. This an alyttisshows that a* animal food, ami as n raanurial substance, it is equal to the best, and superior to the most of the northern grasses. This crop, ten tons to tin acre is enormous. The intelligent Superintendent of] the Btono works, when asked if he! was sure the weight was accurate, re- i plied “yes, if there was truth in the scales." In the best hay section of tiiis coun- j try, txvo tons of hay to tho aero is an excellent crop. A meadow that will produce this amount in the older States will usually command S9OO iter acre, as tho hay crop will pay it hand some interest on this sunt. The average will, however, not exceed one amt a half tons per acre. Here we have ten tons to the acre. If hay is worth in Charleston thirty dollars iter ton, and five dollars per! ton is allowed for expeuees, wo have | two hundred and fifty dollars net profit per acre. And tills result from | land absolutely thrown away because p it is infested with this grass. If we suppose that there may Imve ! been something accidental in this ex traordinary crop of ten tons, and i diminish it one-half, to live tons, this j would still give more than one him dred dollars net profit deducting fertilizers, say eight to ten dollars. <'. \V. How a tut. Hlippp mi a I 'arin. Sheep are undervalued by the mass of land-holders as u meansof keeping up the fertility of the soil and putt ing money into the pockets of farmers. The moment one begins to talk of sheep husbandry the listener or read er begins to look for wool quota! ions, as if wool was all that yields profit from sheep. One might as well look for wheat quotations alone when there is talk about the profit of fann ing. Sheep on a farm yield both wool and mutton. They multiply with great rapidity. They are the best of farm scavengers, “cleaning a field" as no other class of animals will. They give back to thefarm more in propor tion to wlmt they take from it than any other animal, and distribute it better with a view to the future fertil ity of the soil. Prove this? There is no need of proof to those who have kept sheet) and know their habitsand their yield. To prove it to those who have not the experience, it is necessa ry they should try the ex|>eriinent or accept the testimony of an experi enced shepherd. But the live stock of a farm should not, necessarily, be sheep, exclusive. Cattle, horses, swine, have their res pective places in the farm economy. How many of each to keep is a ques tion that locality, character of mar kets, adaptation of soil, predisposi tion, taste and skill of the husband man must decide. But one thing ought not to las forgotten, that the more stock a man has on his farm the more grass, and it ought to, and if properly managed, it will grow. The rates of increase will correspond with the business tact, technical and practical knowledge, and skill of the hnsliandrnan." Mew York llorhl. A little child was once asked how she came to be a Christian, and an swered, “Why, I just saw the floor oqen and I went in.” King Louis XI used to say, “When pride rifles in the saddle mischief and shame sit upon the crupper. >1 IIjIxI > KUY.
