System in Farm Labor.
The following pair of pertineut para*
graphs, which we find in the New Fng
land Homestead,must have been written
by some level headed body who keeps
his eyes wide open and knows how to
tell what he sets and thinks:
• l The amount of muscle that can be
saved by a little brain labor is wonder
ful, and yet the science of doing every
thing in proper season and place, in
fact, properly, is something that agricul
tural paper or farming books cannot
teach. Experience, calculation and
forethought are the mentors. A month
before a piece of machinery is to be used,
a glance at it will show where it is defect
ive. A lainy day, a spaie hour,a chance
to take it to town to he repaired with
out going on purpose. r J hese present
themselves to an intelligent farmer, and
when the harvest is ripe, or the corn
ready for the cultivator, there will be
no delay for the mending of damaged
machinery.
u There is no such weak laziness, or
wicked waste of time and opportunity,
as the man practices who never has time
to do anything properly. He goes to
town with three errands,and comes home
with only one finished, he has no time
for the others, He plows for fifty acres
of corn, but has no time to get in but
forty. He plows with a duller plow
and chops with a duller axe, for the
Jack of time to sharpen them. All these
.-are lack of forethought and system —a
neglect to use the brain that God has
given him to shape and direct and save
the muscle. An ox will do the work,
hut cannot plan it. The horse is pow..
erful, but he is controlea by his master,
and his power utilized, Man’s labor is
but brute strength, and the stronger the
brain force that is brought to bear upon
it the more surely every stroke tells,
aud the more grand will be the result.”
The Improved Poultry.
It is now pretty generally admitted
by most. Western farmers that the im
proved poultry pays as much in propor
tion as the improved breeds of hogs or
sheep ; that is, on general principles.
Of course the great mass of poultry is
raised and sold by the farmers. The
car loads of poultry and eggs shipped
from all over the West came from the
farmers, and since the introduction of
the improved breeds the supply is rap
idly increasing. No farmer can longer
afford to raise the common chickens. If
you can’t have all full-bloods.get a thor
oughbred rooster, either a Cochin or a
Bramah, and you will be so well pleased
with the cross that you will soon work
into full-bloods. They mature quicker,
grow larger, and sell for more money,
lay more eggs, but require a little more
care, with warm, clean, comfortable
quarters, a variety of food,not too much
corn, and eggs may be had all winter as
all summer.
Enterprising farmers who have not al
ready got the improved breeds of poul
try on their farms should now prepare
suitable quarters for a few of the popu
lar and profitable pets ; for you will be
sure to get the poultry fever if you at
tend the fall fairs; but when you get
the improved breeds don’t try to get
fancy prices unless you propose going
regularly into it, and take five or ten
years to learn how to breed them suc
cessfully, and get a reputation as an ex*
perienced bree .er. It will pay better
to let that alone to the professional
breeders, but as farmers to raise poultry
and eggs to sell. But you don’t like
to kill these fine chickens ; only keep
out the best of them for breeding, and
sell them just as you did the others,and
you will find it will pay you one bun*
dred per cent, better to raise the im
proved breeds of poultry for market
than the old barnyard variety.— West
ern Agriculturist.
Exposing Manure.
Some of of our correspondents advo -
cate the Fall spreading ef manure for
good crops the following year. My ex
perience does not convince me of the
value of this jractice. Late in the Au
tumn of 18U8 I spread fourteen ox-loads
of barn manure on about one-half acre
of sod ground, intending to plow it be
fore the ground froze ; but the sudden
freezing of it preventing me, it laid
spread on the surface all Winter. I
have heard it said by some writers that
barn manure does not evaporate ammonia
in cold as in warm weather; but in De
cember, as I passed near this piece of
land, I noticed a very strong scent of
barn manure in the air ; and if there is
any virtue in ammonia in manure,a large
portion of it was lost in the atmosphere
that Winter, as the result showed the
following year. The next Spring I cov
ered the adjoining piece of land, of
about two acres, which was old ground
and which bore a crop of potatoes the
year before, with about the same quan
tity of green manure from the barn cel
lar, the whole being plowed in the
Spring, both old and new ground, and
planted to corn —that on the old ground
with green manure being good, and that
of the Fall spreading on the sod ground
being exceedingly poor. This I have
ever since considered a fair test, and I
have never considered it good husband
ry to expose barn manure containing
volatile ammonia to the action of the at
mosphere any more than to sun and rain,
the plausible reasonings of the agricul
tural writers to the contrary notwith
standing. — New England Farmer.

THE SUN !
WEEKLY AND DAILY FOR 1875.
The apnroach of the Presidential election
gives unusuali mportance to the events and
developments of 1875. We shall endeavor to
describe them fully, faithfuily and fearless
ly-
TIIE WEEKLY SUN has now attained
a circulation of over seventy thousand
copies. Its readers are found in every
State and Territory, and its quality is well
known to the public. We shall not only cn
deaver to koep it fully up to the old stand
ard- but to improve and add to its variety
and power.
TIIL AALEKpy SUN will continue to bo
a thorough newspaper. All the new of the
day will be found in it, condensed when un
important, at full length when of moment,
and always, we trust, treated in a clear,
interesting and instructive manner.
It is our aim to make the WEEKLY” SUN
the best family newspaper in the world. It
will be full of entertaining and appropriat
reading of every sort, but will print nothing
to otfend the most scrupulous and delicate
taste. It will always contain the most in
teresting stories and romances of the day,
carefully . elected and legibly printed.
The Agricultural Department is a promi
nent feature in the WEEKL Y SUN, and i(p
articles will always be found fresh and
useful to the farmer.
The number of men independent in poli
tics is increasing, and the WEEKLY SUN
is their paper especially. It Delong* to no
party, and obeys no dictation, contending
tor principle, and for the election of the
best men. It exposes the corruption that
disgraces the cournry and threatens the
overthrow of republican in-titutions.
has no fear of knaves, ard seeks no favor
from their supporters.
The markets of every kind and the fash
ions are regularly roported in its columns.
The price of the WEEKLY SUN is one
dollar a year for a sheet of eight pages,
and fifty-six columns. As this barely pays
the expenses of paper and printing, we are
not able to make anv discount or allow any
premium to friends who may make special
efforts *o extend its circulation. L”nder the
new law, which requires payment of p>s
tage in advance, one dollar a year, with
twenty cents the cost of prepaid postage
added, is the rate of subscription. It is not
necessary to get up a club in order to have
the WLLKLY SUN at this rate. Any one
who sends one dollar and twenty cents will
get the paper, post paid, for a year
We have no traveling agents.
