Cut-Worms and Corn.
JZlttors Country Gentleman: The time
for corn-planting HI soon be here, and I
Hant to tell you now how the ent-worms
Way be prevented from doing any damage.
The method is cheap, of easy application
awl perfectly sure. If anybody else should
write U you in the same strain of assertion,
1 should think he was blowing," and would
give but little heed to him, but I beg of
your readers to give this plan a trial this
spring over jait of their field, so that it
way be tested, and then uend the result for
publication, toy brother Chalkley Harvev,
of Chadd'.s Ford, l'a., discovered this method
and has published it year after vear raaiiv
times, I once asked him if he had heard of
anybody dUe trying it, and he said that he
had heard f A very few, and he believed
more had tU4 with' it than suci-eeded, and
that it had tolled the corn oftener than it
had rejielled the worm?, but that he should
continue to Jeep it before the public until
its merits were appreciated by enough
fanners to prevent the discovery from beiii"
lost again. I am pleased to say that I havt"
within a few years past, heard of a good
many who have, used it successfully. The
failures are always the result of mismanage
ment of the grossest kind, though the whole
thing is just as simple as sweetening cup
ofcoUVe. Here it is. Immediately after
the corn is planted, sprinkle on the hill,
over the covered grains, about one table
spoonful of salt to each hill. More will do
no harm, but how mu.-li more the corn would
stand 1 do not know. A tablespoonful is
enough, and perhaps less would do. That
is all. I have buried cut-worms in salt ami
lett them there a Ions; time without doing
them any apparent harm, and they wifl
crawl over salt without limitation r any
seeming iinoanee, but they will not eat
the young corn plains if there is a little salt
in its sap. That seems to be the explana
tion of its protective influence. -
The explanation of the harm sometime
done by this method is as follows; The
worms begin to cut the corn, and they keep
on cutting it. The farmer has seen mr
brother's article in the county newspaper,
or in some agricultural publication, and he
gives his corn hills, and corn, a dose of salt.
The grain of salt tall down the inside of the
tender corn blade to the terof the plant
and wither ir. Allow me to repeat that the
salt should be put on the corn hills imme
diately after the planting, that it may be
dissolved by the rain, dew, or other mois
ture in the air, and thus reach the roots of
the plant greatly diluted by mixture with
the soil, and therefore safe 'to the youn
and tender plant ; and also that it mav be
at the r.uots, wlie; jt may enter the sap of
the plant j.ul at the leaven, where it can
only dest roy. I wish J hat some of your
cotton-growing readers would try it on cot
ton plants as a protection against the worms
that every few years inflict a national eal
Mimty by making to much ol the crop a
failure. Jf jt should move ;s sijcees.ftil on
.rot ton ys oll tfjuj.,, Congress may recognize
Ibe value of my suggestion by voting'me a
few sections of public land, which I will
gratefully accept, and establish an experi
mental farm !
Farm Drainage,
Jijo following remarks on
taken from a lecture on Farm
drainage are
Engineering
to the junior cks of the Iowa Agricultural
I'rfdleye, by l'rof. (J. W. Jones. He says:
The characteristics of good drainage are
free outflow, free ingress of water, a eJl
regulated descent to the end that no stop,
pages occur, sufficient depth, sufficient near
ness. In different fields the several condi
tions must be studied and carefully adapted
to the case in hand; for instance, in a very
tenacious clay the drains must be nearer
than in more open loam.
The sources of water, as has been stated,
are three; springs, whence cold water, with
no leriimv; overflow, with its . :iii..m.u
wasliiiK'M
and rain, which in mMiiM:il U

warm, and laden with
---m r
erases rich in nlant.
i i i
IIKKI,
The first and second must ! .iv;,l...l
and the water therefrom carried away in
drains out oi reach of plants. The third is
to be retained and filtered through the soil,
lis heat and richness taken up by the earth,
ami cold clarified water, so grateful to man'
and so deadly to plants, likewise carried off
by the drains whenever in excess.
The general effects of drainage, then, are:
The warming and enriching of the soil by
the rain-tall, (t renter inllu-ti. -hkI i

signed, chiefly the plants having soil ot i j.dil
moisture, noltmcr cheeked Iy wet subsoil,
nend their rots deeper and work it loose ;'
the water passing through, not standing in
the soil, dissolves it ami making readier
passage for itself, the frosts crumble it.
lule u ixl rained lands, during wet weather
grow pasty and puddled, the drained only
grow more friable; while the ii.idraineJ
during drouth shrinks, bak. s and shows
wide seams, tearing the roots .f plants on
the one hand, and on the other by its hard
as
ness preventing their penetration and dis-
couraguig thei
r growth, the drained, by its
mellowness and porosjty, attracts moisture,
does not ciack, m nuts and fosters the roots
of plants. The presence of war jn the soil
in excess, partjeulaily Kit mated, dead ;md
cold subsoil, stops th descent iif roots i t.
poisons and kills the roots, thijs loavin.uc"
tive only those at the surface. When drouth
tomes, the top sojs, drying, leave the shal
low roots no nourishment, unl t)(. plants
wither. In hot, dry weather, the air U si ill
laden with moisture, the mellow soil admits
its passage, and bring somewhat colder than

The Hand that Rocks the World.
IJlcssings on the hand of Woman !
Angels guard its strength and grace
In the palace, cottnge, hovel,
O, no matter where the place!
Would that never storms assailed it ;
Uainbows ever gently curled ;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world.
Infancy's the tender fountain;
Power may with Beauty flow;
Mothers first to guide the streamlets ;
From them souls unresting grow,
Grow on for the good or evil,
Sunshine streamed or darkness hurled ;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world.
Woman, how divine your .mission
Here upon our natal sod I
Keep, O keep the young heart open
Always to the breath of (iod !
All true trophies of the Ages
Are for mother love impearled ;
For the hand that rocks tiie cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world.
Blessings on the hand of Woman I
Fathers, sons and daughters cry,
And the sacred song is mingled
With the worship in the sky,
Mingles where no tempest darkens,
Rainbows evermore are Ji tilled ;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rocks the world.

and others having money to invest, as being the
most desirable security oh the market, for the fol
lowing reasons, to wit :
Fiust. They cannot lie taxed by the State,
County or Cj.ty. The United States Supreme
Court in the ease of the Northern Central Railroad
vs. Jackson, (see 7 Wallace, Supreme Court U. S.,
page 267,) decided that when a Railroad mortgage
is a joint one, on property lying in two or more
States, the Bonds secured thereby are not liable to
be tax-d by either of the States: and the same
principle relieves tin in from taxation by County,
City, or Town. The Charlotte, Columbia and Au
gusta Bonds are secured by a joint mortgage on
property lying in North Carolina, South Carolina
and Georgia.
Second. Because they are absolutely safe, be

CARD
mid 'or Spring. 1873
TO MERCHANTS.
The greatest aim of our House, since its establish
ment, has been to make Charlotte a wholesale Mart
and ours THE HOUSE, and to conduct our busi
ness so as to outgrow the alleged and even accepted
opinion of some that there is a kind of obloquy at
tached to them for buying in Charlottee; and hav
ing, by the very great increase of our business. (since
we n moved to our new and elegant Store,) been
convinced that we have partially succeeded in our
cherished plan, we have concluded to endeavor to
still further eradicate the erroneous idea, by present
ing, this coming t-eason to the Trade, a still larger
and better assorted Stock than even we ever offer
ed before, so that Country Merchants will be able
to find in our bouse not only all he needs but a very
large stock to select from ; "thereby being enabled
to operate with a much smaller canital than 1... ran
by buying in dillerent houses North, where he must
ncce saruy ouy more goods than he actually needs
in order to have an assortment.
In view of the foregoing, Mr Rintels left on the
2ah of January, (much earlier than uualt) for
Northern Markets and Manufacturing places, where
he will remain two months in uiakingour purchases
buying everything from first hands on the same
as any Jobbing House in Baltimore, Philadelphia
or New York ; and lhe assortment when thus com
pleted will foot up in amount to upwards of Two
Hundred Thousand Dollars.
The expenses attached to carrying on a business
here being much less than it would be in Northern
Cities, ami having a lower rate of freight than smal
ler shippers here, brings the fact patent that we
are in a position to successfully compete with any
Jobbing House in the United States, and to the in
spection of which we invite the Trade
