AGRICULTUR AL.
Red Rust Proof Oats.
We are glad to lay before our readers
(say the Biblical Recorder) from a most
reliable correspondent the following article
upon "lied liust Proof Oats. They have
been most highly complimented by Southern
writers, and this is the first report we have
from them in this State :
Mr Editor: After reading the Recorder
on the subject of "Red Rust Proof Oats," I
have concluded to give you my experience
with them. In March, 1874, "I prepared a
lot for clover, and sowed the same, (after
- X
good preparation and highly manuring,) in
Red Rust Proof Oats, Orchard Grass and
Clover. I did not have quite enough Red
Rust Proof Oats to sow the lot, and sowed
the remainder of the lot in the common oats.
y the time the oats began to bunch, I
could see to the spot where the common
oats were sown. The common oats were
the tallest and continued so until harvest
The lied Rust Proof Oats did not get high
enough to save well, while the ordinary
oats attained a erood heirht. Jn r ntemuer
c C1 ft
of the same year I sowed a field in common
oatp, through the middle of which, and in
the best land in the field, I sowed about two
bushels of the Red liust Proof Oats, wind
did not grow as high by 12 to 18 inches as
1 lie common oats did. And 1 feel safe in
paving that they did not by from one-third
to one-half make as good oats as did the
common oats. I feel satisfied that the Red
Rust Proof Oats will not do at all for Spring
sowing, and are not as good for a full crop
on ordinary land as the common oats are.
I think they would be fine to sow on good
land for early feeding, as they ripen ten
days earlier than the common oats. And I
see no indication of Rust and agree with
Mr Aiken that the Strain is much Jiner.

Summer Pruniur.
In the Summer of 1802, when a number
of Concord vines that were planted in 18G1,
were growing rapidly, a severe storm cut
up the young 6hoots, completely defoliating
them, and breaking the tender and succu
lent shoots at a height of about two feet
The vines were growing rapidly, and the
dormant buds in the axils ol the leaves im
mediately pushed out laterals, which made
very fair sized canes. In the following
Fall, when Ave commenced to prune, v
lround Irom three to five of these strong
laterals on each cane, and accordingly
shortened them in to from three to five and
six buds each. On these laterals we raised
as fine a crop of grapes as we ever saw, cer
tainly much finer than we had ever before
raised on the strong canes ; and we have
Kince learned to imitate hail storms by
pinching the leaders of young shoots when
they have grown, say two feet, forcing out
the laterals, and growing our fruit on the
latter, thus meeting with another illustra
tion of the old proverb, "It is an ill wind
that blows nobody good."
After the second pinching of the fruit
bearing branches, as described above, the
laterals will generally start once more, and
we pinch the young growth again to one
leaf, thus giving each lateral two well-de
veloped leaves. The whole course should
be completed about the middle of June here,
and whatever grows afterward should be
left. In closing, let us glance at the objects
we nave m view :
1. To keep the vine within proper bound
so that it is at all times under the control of
the vintner, without weakening its consti
tution by robbing it of a great amount of
loliage.
. judicious imnning ol the lruit at a
time when no vigor has been expended in
its development.
3. Developing strong, healthy foliage, by
forcing the growth of the laterals, and hav
ing two young, healthy leaves opposite each
bunch which shade the fruit, and serve as
conductors of the sap to the fruit.
4. Growing vigorous canes for nexj, year's
fruting and no more, thereby making them
stronger; as every part of the vine is thus
accessible to light and air, the wood will
ripen better and more uniformly.
5. Destruction of noxious insects. As
the vintner has to look over each shoot of
the vine, this is done more thoroughly and
systematically than by any other process.
The Grape Culturist.
About Milking. Five per cent, and
perhaps ten can be added to the amount of
milk obtained from the cows of this coun
try, if the following rules are inexorably
followed :
1. Never hurry cows, in driving to and
from the pastures.
2. Milk as nearly at equal intervals as
possible. Half past five in the morning and
six at night are good hours.
3. Be especially tender of the cows at
milking times.
4. When seated draw the milk as fast as
possible, being certain always to get it all.
5. Never talk or think of anything be
side what you are doing when milking.
G. Otter some caress and always a sooth
ing word when you approach a cow and
when you leave her. The better she loves
you, the more free and complete will be her
abandon as you sit by her side.

What you do, do well.
To those who require counsel we should
say : When you undertake to do anything,
be in earnest about it; do it with your
might. Fortune and fame are often lost by
nof being in earnest. This is a real world
a world of real work; real success ; real
conflicts; real failures; real triumphs ; real
defeats. And let no one be so over confi
dent in his own abilities as to look with in
difference upon the difficulties before him
the danger and trials that he must pass in
order tiT reach the goal upon which his eye
is fixed. Full and glorious success never
yet did crown the languid and indifferent
exercises of the powers of mind and body.
It requires effort to push one's craft against
the current of rivalry, jealousy and vice;
and if one would have his progress marked
by complete triumph, his efforts must be
well directed, constant and unrelaxing.
But he who feels that he has only to lie in
active and wait for the wind of fortune to
drilt him into the haven of wealth and fame,
has lost every promise of success, and is in
far more danger of ultimate disaster than
the tempest-tossed mariner, though his mast
be gone, and his vessel shattered and torn
by the raging sea. Be in earnest ; meet
the difficulties which daily arise with deter
mination to conquer and rise above them.
Let not your adversary find you sleeping or
dreaming of an easy conquest. Be faith
ful; be true; be kind; be firm; be earnest.
