AGRICULTURAL, ci
Successful Cotton-Grower.
Mr It. E. Ilapjsdale, one of the most
uccessful tobacco planters in Dinwidlie
county, Va,whose success in the natural con
sequence and diiect retult of his enter
prising spirit, i well worthy the attention
aud emulation of agriculturists generally.
Tried cotton last year for the first time as
a mere experiment, on a little less than
eleven acres of- land. He made 15,237
pounds of seed cotton, which 'was sold in
this market at a fraction over $516. Seed
cotton usually yields one pound of liut to
three pounds of seed, at which rate be
made about twelve bales of cotton on the
eleven acre. Fully one acre of this laud
had been used as a road for one hundred
years or more, about five acres was com
mon lot land, and the balance very poor
corn laud that would not have made corri
enough to pay for its cultivation without
the use ot a fertilizer.
Buying a ,Horse.
The Turf, Field and Farm says that in
buying a horse first look at his head and
eyes for signs of intelligence, temper,
courage and honesty. Unless a horse has
brains you cannot teach him to do any
thing well. If bad qualities predominate
in a horse, education only serves to en
large and intensify them. The head is
the indicator of disposition. A square
muzzle, with large nostrils, evidences an
ample breathing apparatus and lung
power. Next, see that he is well and
clean cut under the jowl, with jawbones
broad and wide apart under the throttle.
Breadth and fullness between the ears
and eyes are always desirable. The eyes
should be full and hazel in color, ears
small and thin and thrown well forward.
The horse that turns his ears back every
now and then is not to be trusted. He is
either a biter or a kicker, and is sure to
be vicious in other respects, and, being
naturally vicious, can never be trained to
anything well, and so a horse with a
rounding nose, tapering forehead and a
broad, full face below the eyes is always
treacherous and not to be depended on.
Avoid the long legged, stilted animal al
ways choosing one with a short, straight
back aud rump, withers high and shoul
ders sloping, well set back aud with good
depth of chest, fore legs short, hind legs
straight, with low down hock, short
pastern joints, and around, mulish shaped
foot. By observing the above direction
a horse may be selected that is graceful in
his movements, good nilured and ser
viceable one that will be a prize to the
owner.
Leached Wood Ashes.
Allies from the stove or furnace con
tain all the mineral constituents necessary
for plant growth, and are therefore very
valuable as a fertilizer to a worn out,
naturally poor soil. A large part of the
potash is removed from allies in leaching,
aud as this constituent is a leading one,
leached ashes are of less value as plant food
than when fresh. The owner should save,
in a secure place, all the ashes made and
apply them to the laud in the spring. A
top-dressing of twenty bushels per acre to
an old pasture or meadow will give good
returns fur several years, The leached
ashes should be disposed of in the same
manner, only they may be applied at the
rate of one hundred bushels per acre.-
Leached ashes have been bought and used
for many years by farmers and gardeners
on Long Island and near the shore towns
in Connecticut. These ashes are brought
mainly from Canada. Ashes are especi
ally good lor tobacco land, aud onion
raisers find them profitable. It has been
observed that where this fertilizer has
been introduced, it retains its bold upon
the confidence of those who use it. Fruit
growers are glad to get leached ashes for
their small firuit gardens, and even or
chards of large trees are much benefited
, by them. Save all the ashes; leached or
unleached, and if there is a good oppor
tunity buy and apply them. American
Agriculturist.
A Word for the' Mole.
Mr Webber, one of the savans of Zu
rich, Switzerland, recently examined the
stomachs of a number of moles caught in
different localities, but failed to discover
therein the slightest vestige of plants 01
roots; but on the contrary, they were
filled with the remains of earth worms.
He shut up several of these animals in a
box containing earth and sod with grow
ing grass, and a small case of grubs and
earthworm. In nine days two moles de
voured 341 white worms, 193 earthworms,
25 caterpillars and a dead- mouse. Fed
with a mixed diet of raw meat and vege
tables, the moles ate the meat, but did not
touch the plants ; aud when vegetables
exclusively were dealt out to them, in
twenty-four hours both died of starvation.
ITT . 1 .
ve cannot conceive wnat better evi
dence is needed of the character and hab
its of the mole. When lawns show the
presence of many moles, we may be sure
that the injurious white worm, which is
very damaging to the sod, greatly abounds
there, and the mole is the best
exterminate it.

Old Spaing Proverbs. "When April
blows his horn, 'tis goud for both hay and
corn." So runs the old proverb. By
many the backwardness of the season is
regarded unfavorably, but it is a fact
that the most productive years are usual
ly those in which the spring is cold, Tlx
fear of frost is much less among fruit
growers at the preseut time than, it would
be had March and April been warm
months. There is a saying that "as many
frostises in May" are to be expected as
. 1 ? a 1 ...
mere are misuses in xuarcn, ana as
March was both dry and cold, the pro
verb indicates that no frost is to be feared
in May this year. There is no reason to
regard the prospect for any great crop as
uniavoraDie. ine ouiiook ior iruit is es
pecially good, and as to crop prospects
generally, the discomfort of this chilly
weather may be somewhat alleviated by
faith in the proverb. "A cold April the
barn will fill."
tdgr It is stated that the making o
milk sugar has been begun by newly-in
vented processes at an Ohio cheese factory,
Hitherto the $100,000 worth of milk su
gar used in this country in compounding
medicines has been imported from Eu
rope, mainly Switzerland, Germany and
France. It is to be hoped that the new
industry will prove successful and appli
cable at least to all our large cheese lac
. tones. At present this element of milk is
in large measure wasted.
ISlf A New York farmer declares that
an acre of the Hubbard squash ' will fat
ten more hogs than the corn that can be
raised on the same ground. He has gath
ered from six to eight tons from an acre.-
The
:, , . .; Common Sense Farming.
'It is all very well for newspapers to
raise the cry of "hog and hominy," aud
"all cotton," and tell the farmers to di
versify their crops and raise their own
supplies, liut underneath these appeals
lies hidden lrom view in most cases, an
important truth. No crop can be suc
cessful and remunerative that is not pro
perly cultivated, harvested and sold.
The Rural Messenger puts the matter in
this shape: .
"The papers are indulging in a discus
sion of the system of farming now in vogue
and there has been much adverse criticism.
It seems that, in laying the whole blame
of non-success upon excessive cotton, pea
nut and tobacco planting they stop far
short of the true reason.
These are the best, most money pro
ducing crops for our section aud climate.
These are certaiu crops, and when ready
for market is equivalent to cash. They
are easily marketed and easily handled.
It is better adapted to the present system
of labor. To charge the failure to excep
tional weather and seasons, and the conse
quent financial disaster, to the cultivation
of these crops is, to say the least, mis
taking effect for cause.
Hog and Hominy L a very good catch
cry, but it does not reach the root of the
matter. The lack of business system with
the majority of farmers is the true reason
why they do not get rich. We venture
the assertion there cannot be found a
larmer with halt the business system ot a
successful merchant who is not getting
rich at farming. We have in our mind's
eye men in the country who have a bal
ance to go to the progressive side of their
account at the end ot every year. It is
not because they raise their own hog and
minv, but because they personally
superintend every department of their
larms, they get the wages value of labor
out of their laborers, they keep an ac
count of all money expended, they have a
place for all their farming implements
and keep them in that place while not in
use and not left exposed to weather.
Above all they use judicious economy,
which every successful business man does
n his affiirs.
They do not come to town at every op
portunity and carry home with them
more. corn in another shape than hominy
than their brains can stand. They do
not allow a commission merchant to keep
their accounts, they do not have an ir
responsible overseer to do work which
they ought to do, they do not break up a
cart or so and kill a mule or so during
each year and theu curse these crops be
cause the price is not high enough to pay
for all sorts of extravagance. The con
clusion of the whole matter, to an im-
ar;ial observer is that hog and hominy
is a good'thing, but business system aud
economy are better."
A Wisconsin lady says that one
lalf a pint ol salt and one ounce of copperas
dissolved in a gallon of water is all that
is needed for a cut-worm preparation. She
dips the plants in this solution before fel
ting them, bays she has used it lor years
and never knew of a plant being cut off
after taking this precaution.
