AGRICULTURAL.
Fall Crops Oats and Wheat.
; The vacillating policy that has marked
the history of oat-raising in the South
ought to give way to a settled conviction,
one way or the other, that the oat crop
should be a staple crop ol the Sootb, the
reliance lor rations for work stock, or that
it is too uncertain a crop for such re
liance. The corn crop and the oat crop,
the one planted in the spring, the other in
the fall, dovetail together in a remarka
ble manner when properly considered and
managed. Say we commence a system
now: Sow in oepiemoer aou vyuiuuer uui
less than six acres of oats to the plow, on
rood or well fertilized land. If sown
early, the odds of the chances are io favor
of their standing the winter and making a
good yield, enongh to almost feed the
mules a year, estimating a yield ot not
less than twenty-five bushels per acre,
At all events, bv corn Dlantme time next
March and April, we will be able to esti
mate the yitrld of the fall sown oat crop
pretty closely. If the prospect is good
for a heavy yield, we may reduce the area
in corn correspondingly; it the prospect is
bad. plant more corn, so likewise in the
fall, as now, we know what the yield of
the corn will be. and may enlarge or de
crease the area in oats accordingly. In
this way the two crops are complementary
to each other. We think as a rule our
farmers cut too closely in their calcula
tions, and the result is generally "too
tight a fit" in the matter of supplier.
Every farmer ought to make it his aim to
produce a surplus of every one of the
leading crops he grows. Always have a
little corn to sell, a good many choice
seed oat, potatoes, beef, pork, butter,
etc., to spare. There is more money in
these crops than in making cotton at
present prices, and this is why the farmer
who makes his own corn, oats, bacon, hay,
etc.. and does Dot rely on the West for
anything that he can grow on bis own
farm, makes more money and less debts
than the farmer who buys a large portion
of his supplies.
There is no better succession than oats
or wheat after cotton. Oats may be
sown before the cotton has been harvested,
as we have often suggested. . The unap
propriated remainder of the fertilizer ap
plied to the cotton crop will be eagerly
consumed by the oats, with the additional
advantage to the land of the protection
SY "
against washing anorded by a growing
winter crop of oats. According to the
best experience, there is no crop on which
fertilizers yield better results than a crop
of fall-sown oats.
; We do .not nrge upon the Southern
farmers generally to sow wheat. In the
absence of a variety that is reliably rust
proof and at the same time a good flour-
i . . i - .
ing wneai, ine crop is too uncertain as a
rale. There are localities and sections,
however, where wheat is about as certain
a crop as anywhere in the country, and
the sowings should be limited to such
localities. Southern Cultivator.
Two Pictures of Farm Life.
From the Minneapolis Pioneer Press.
The Old Home in New Hampshire.
I have just returned from a brief visit to
my old home among the mountains and
granite hillsides of New Hampshire. The
average farm in that country is say 100
acres, of which, perhaps, fifteen to twenty
acres may be called, in a sense, arrable.
Un the old homestead which I visited I
found growing say one-half acre of oats,
three-quarters ol an acre of corn, a few
potatoes, and a small garden. Not to ex
ceed twenty acres had been mown, and
the bay nicely stowed away io the barn.
ine ouuaings were in excellent repair
and both inside and outBide were as neat
as could be desired. In the wood shed I
noticed nicely stored away a year's sup
ply of fuel. The man who now owns the
plaoe did not inherit it, nor, if I remember
rightly, any other farm. The farm is a
fair sample of the average in that town
ship, twelve miles from the nearest .rail
way station, and no; manufacturing vil
lage in the viciuity. It is purely an agri
cultural district and not considered by
any means nrst class even in that state.
1 here are no mortgages on those farms
and almost every proprietor has some
little money at interest.
The Neio Home in the Wheat Belt.
The world is led to believe that the wheat
capacity of the Northwest is inexhausti
ble. - lfae fact is, northern Minnesota and
TA 1 . . 1 i .
xsaxota are passing mrougri toe same
stale that southern Minnesota and Iowa
have suffered; whereas the average wheat.
yield used to be twenty bushels to the
aore, and farms produced as high as forty
i,oV.,iJ ; k t?..a i:. ..n- . l .
uusuoifl iu tua ivcu ivivvr vaucy, lue aver
age yield of the State now is but twelve
bushels. It costs $8 to raise an acre of
wheat. Where is the proht ? The his
tory of wheat farming in other portions of
the country is. this: 1 he prairie lands;
the nrst year they are broken, will yield
twenty bushels. 1 his, perhaps, pays lor
the farm. The second year it is a little
better. This pays for the machinery and
buildings. lbe third year it (alls off
somewhat. The fourth year is still woree.
The sanguine farmer says, "Well, this is a
bad year, and tries it agaio. It is ftill
worse, and so on till the farms are ac
tually mortgaged for tin- living expenses.
Care of Sick Fowls.
Last winter, sas n writer in the Cen
tral Baptist, of St. Louis, all of my heus
had the
roup, and some very badly.
This is the way I cured them : I made a
brine of warm water and as much salt as
it would dissolve, and washed their heads
and necks and opened their eyes, letting
it go .into their eyes (their eyes , were
frothy.) Then I gave them a piece ol char
coal and some grease. I did this twice a
day until they got well. I only gave the
grease once a day. They .got well in a
few. days and I never lost one. Then we
let them outj of the ben-house, and closing
the door burned sulphur to cleanse it. I
had a good ventilator made and had no
more trouble. (I also cleaned out the
ben-house.) I know this is a sure cure for
roupe. Last winter I bad a large pullet to
get so lame she could hardly walk. I
gave the tallow for two days and she got
entirely well. She was lame in both legs;
I thought it was rheumatism. Last Bum
mer my early chicks had the gapes and. I
gave them three - drops of spirits of tur
pentine in one teaspoon of water orice a
day until they got well. It cured them
all. Camphor gum is good for gapes; a
piece of gum as big- as a grain of wheat
once a day is enough. I have lost a num
ber of turkeys with what I suppose is
cholera; they have a diarrhoea ot a yel
lowish color, and are very thirsty. I
have at last found a cure. So soon as I
see a drooping one .1 give it a email half
teaspoonful of hyposulphite of soda iq two
tablespoons of water dissolved, and repeat
the dose daily for three days. As the
sick birds will not eat, I give scalded
milk with a little red pepper and pow
dared chalk. oouricer it down their necks
twice a day. If they will eat, give aoft
fnnd and a little charcoal. My hens are
not lousy; they roost on cedar poles,

for table use. It can be mixed in all proportions
with all kinds of drinks, such as Lemonades,

to them a delicious aroma, a fine acid taste and
a luscious body, which no other juice can do.

The Why and Wherefore of It.
While it ia quite generally conceded that
posts set in the eround UDSide down will
last much longer than io the reverse post
tion, the why and wherefore of it has been
a mystery with the general public". The
reason ot this: The pores of wood are so
constructed as to draw and push the
moisture upward from the roots to the
leaves and branches of the tree, and this
same principle of action causes the. con
stant drying out of a post set reversely to
its natural growth, while if set bottom
down the pores will constantly draw the
moisture upwards; thus causing its pre
mature decay.
