From the Soil of the Srouth.
RME IUM ESSAY ON HTIT-SIDE DITCHING,
Read before the Second Annual FIair of the
Georgia and Alabama Agricultural Sociey.
BY NE1.SON (LAY'rOS.
In performing this indispensable work for
the preservation nani iinprovement of 'and,
there is great diversity of opinion as to the
best manner in which it is to be done-dif
fering, too, as to the most essential points.
But this difference is the result, in a great
degree, of the diversity and irregularity of
our hills, knobs and varlevs, as well as of
the nature of the soil. If all our land re
quiring hill-side ditches were a perfect in
clined plane, with the same grade from top
to bottoi, perhaps- this difference wouikl not
exist-or if it did, it would be much easier
to ascertain and correct the errors and es.
tablisli something like a uiiform system.
Under the many disadvantages by which the
work is surrounded, all that can be done is
to lay down some general rules, leaving the
balance to the experience and practical
sense of the operator. " In a multitude of
counsel there is safety." I will therefore
give the result of several years' experience
and close observation, prefacing it with the
hope it may be found of some little service
to some one desirous of information upon
the subject-not claiming for my essay any
thing on account of literary merit.
The frame with which I work is made of
two pieces of plank nine feet long, three and
a half inches wide, three quarters of an inch
thick. Fasten the upper ends of the planks
together in the form of a compass, or rafter,
placinig tile lower ends fifteen feet apart.
Four feet nine inches from the lower ends
of each piece (this can be varied, however,
to suit the height of the person who is to
carry the frame) attach two small slips of
plank (one and a half inch by five -eighths)
upon opposite sides across then., which are
to act as a support for the water or spirit
level, as well as to fasten the two arms of
the compass or frame together, and make
them steady. It will also be better to fisten
two narrow strips together in two or three
places to make them more Era. On the
middle of these two, mtrrow strips is fasten
ed the level. There can be no doubt of its
superiority over the plumbline on account of
its requiring less time to use it, particularly
on a wintry day. The frame can. now be
taken to soic plae that is perfectly level,
and by reversing the ends, ascertairr that it
is right. If it is not perfectly level, it can
he made so by moving one end of the cross
slat up or down. After this is done, mark
on the level the exact point at which the
vacuum stands-then elevate one end of
the frame one, two, three and four inches,
and mark upon the level each time as at
first. Now get at least one hundred small
canes or sticks about eighteen inches long.
You will have one (a small boy will do) to
cArry the sticks. He should walk on tie
opposite side of tile frame, and place one0 inl
tile grounid a few inches. back of tile foot
of the framne, upon the same side that he is
on, so that in movinlg the frame for another
stride, you can plaice the back end or foot
exactly whlere the front one stood.
The fall or grade to he given to the ditchl
depends upon the length-whether it is
straight or crooked-the quality of the soil,
and to some extenit the grade of the hill. I
will give, for instance, the grade to be used
upon gray land hlaving a light sandy or
gravelly clay foundation, as it is much the
most. difficult, if the ditch is to be two or
three hundred yards long, nearly straighlt,
with only long and gentle curves, the first
.stride of fifteen feet, at the upper end,
should have four inches fall-the next thlree
-and then the first hundred yalrds should
have twvo and a half inches fall to every
fifteen feet The second two, and tile third
hundred yards should have only one and a
hlalf inches fall to thte fifteen feet. The
velocity gained by water in running any dis
tan~ce makes it necessary that the grade or
fall should be diminished about this prepor
tionl to tile length of the ditch. If, ho wever,
tile ditch shloud be very crooked, add a half
inch, and inl extreme cases even more thlan
that to tihe rate of mal. At very short
crooks for tile first stride below, add as
mouch as an half inlch, for the purpose of
carrying off thle sand thtat w~ould~ otherwise
accumulate at such pllaces. If tihe ditch
should be perfectly or nearly straight as
much as one hundred yards, tile fall mighlt
be the same as the rate given above for
straight ditches. Upon steep hill-sides, tile
ditches require miore tall thlan whero they
are only mfodlerate. Thlis is necessary to
prevent them from filling up, on account of
the force wvith whlich the wvater and sand
come into them ; for let your ditches he ever
so close together, inl very hlard rainis there
w'ill be some sand washed in from above.
I have sonme short ditches on very steep
hill-sides, as much as from thlree to five
inches.
These grades, or this work, to the inex
perienced, may appear complicated, but niot
so with tlie experienced. It takes but little
practice, accompilaniedl with good judgment,
for any one, by looking at the land, to tell
wvhether the dlitchl will be stright or crooked,
long or short; anld if he should be mista ken,
it is better to run it off' agin thlan suffer it
to remain wrong--for to make tile fall
greater or less is a very easy matter when
your level is marked as before directed.
The only difference between the grading
or fall, given the ditch in red stifF land, or<
where there is a good clay foundation, and
the above, is that the fall may be made, for
the reason it is less liable to wash.
In commencing to ditch you will first
take a general viewv of tile land. Perhaps
from some local cause there is some particu- I
lar place where a ditch shlould be-er soe
starting point (eithler above or below) whlere,C
above all others, there should be a dlitch.
(I neglected to say before, you can go up
hlill inl runninig your ditch, as wvell as down,
by simply reversing the endls of your frame.)
If you can get an outlet by running your I
ditches with a branch or bottom, it is pre
ferable, as the best land will thereby be t
saved. But if this cannot be done, as very a
frequently happens, you will have to use the I
branlch or bottom for an outlet. There n~
must always be a ditch near the top of the a
hill. If this cannot be done in any other g
wvay, the grade must ho changed or reversed
so as to make tile ditohes enter into eachl f
other, until a suitable outlet is secured. In elc
this case, there must be a log eighlt or tenm
feet long placed upon the ditch you run into, 9tri
at the point of junction, to prevent the water
from breaking over. Thie ditch should also wt
be wider from that poinut down. of
When you have an outlet in opposite di- at
rections for a ditch that is as much as twvo be
hundred yards long, you should reverse tile bc
grade about midwtay, so that the water will be
run in different direotions. so
It is best to have ne9 ditch exceeding threes
bmndrod yards long running in the same di- 'at
j~n , nranmostalwys ivid th fr
ditch betweert the two outlets where the dis.
tance is so great as that.
The distance the ditches should be apart
is owing altogether to the land-its quality,
and the grade of the hill. I have some of
my ditches as close as thirty feet to each
other. The usual distance is about twenty
to forty yards on hilly imid -red stiff lamd
will bear even more than that. The only
general rule that can he laid down on this
point, however, is, be sure to havethem close
enough together to- prevent washing. WIen
you have finished striking off a ditch wihi
the small sticks, as above directed, you
should then go, back and alter them where
the crook is too abrupt, and then remedy it
by cutting the ditch deeper or more shallow
at that point. You. will find many places
can be done in this manner, on account of
the general unevenness of the surface.
When this is done have a furrow run
with a plow six or vight inches from the
stakes on either side. The furrow is run a
little distance from the stakes, so as to pre.
vent the horse from stepping on them. An
other furrow is then run upon the other side
of them-making the space between about
fifteen inches at the upper end, about three
feet at the lower end, (the ditch three hun.
dred yards long.) Now plow out the mid.
die and have the dirt pulled out with hoes
on the lower side, until the ditch is six or
eight inches deep. It will be necessary to
Plow it out two or three times, first with a
scooter and then with a shovel, so as to
make it concave when fiuished, or you can
use any kind of plows you wish. After this
is done, by stooping down low in the ditch
you can see the rough points or lumps that
will, need trimming. I think ditches should
be as sludlow as possible to answer the pur.
pose for which they are designed, so that
horses and mules will step across them
more readily and the dirt will not bo so apt
to fall in from the edges. The ditch should
be wide for the reason., the water being
spread over a greater surface is less liable
to wash it into a gully than if confined
in a narrow space. Even when a ditch is
well laid off, iW it is made too narrow it may
ftil altogether. IH at any time you discover
that a ditch is too narrow, alter immediatelv
-if too wide, (though this is rarely the case)
let the grass grow into it on the upper side,
and in one year it will get narrow enou_ +.
At all gullies and washes across which
yout wish to carry your ditch, put a log
upon the upper as well as the lower side of
the ditch,as long as the wash is wide. The
size of the log to be in proportion to the
depth of the gully. The ends of the log
on the upper side must be placed in the
earth even with the surface. If logs are
placed carefully in this manner in several
places between the ditches, the gully will
soon fill up. Pine brush, if conveuient,
may also be used to advantage for this pur
pose.
Stubble land is much the easiest ditched
-because the surface of the earth is more
smoth, and it' done in summer, immediately
after the grain is cut, so that grass will
grow on. thme emibankment, it is not so liable
to wash.
The largest gullies may be stopped in
this manner: First, run off~ your ditch with,
out any regard to the gully, and at the place
where it crosses dig out two plaices on each
side of the bank of' the gully, opposite each
other, above and belowv where the ditch is
to cross, and as deep as the gully. Cut
logs long enough to reach across the gully,
and fit them in the places dug out in the
sides-then put thenm in at each place one
upon top) of the other until they are as high
as the bank of the ditch should be to pro.
vent its running into the gully-then fill up
the space between as high as the bottom of
the ditch, with dirt, carefully stopping the
cracks between thme logs with straw. Put
in a single set of logs every twenty or
thirty feet across the gully between ditches,
in the same manner, then fill up with logs,
brush, or anyting that is convenient and
the wvork is done.
I have filled up and am now cultivating
across gull~les in this manner-one in par
ticular that was from five to seven feat wide,
Rnid equally deep, abouit one hundred yards
long.
Lay off' the rowvs for cultivation on a level
Plant corn, as well as cotton, in drills. Lay
off guide rows about thirty to fifty feet
apart on ordinary hill sides; but as they
will not run parallel upon1 a level, soe
places will be much wider than others. In
the middle of these wide places run another
rowv upon a level, then commence laying off
your rows for plantinig parallel with the
irst rows, above andl below alternately, until
they meet in the narrow places-then run
upon side of the guide rowv in the middle
until you have finished. The very short
rows (they wvill sometimes occur) may be
aid off~ by guess.
To preserve these guide rows wvhen graini
s sown, I make the best hand that laid off,
;o ahead and run them over. This lie can
to, very nearly, by oounting the rows at
he narrow and wide points. Then take a
~urninig plowv andl run a furrowv upon each
ide ot it, making a ridge. This will enable
~ou to identify it the next year.
Every time in plowing over a field, I
nake some of the plow hands clean the
onse di~rt out of the ditches, at" twelve
>'clock," while the horses are eating. I
now there is great diversity of opinion as
o how land should be cultivated after it is
itched. Many reasons are given for plans
lifi'ering from that here laid down.
Some contend that the rows should be
aid otTf so that each one will carry off its
)wn surplus water. Now, if each row is
.o carry off its own surplus water, why
aye ditches at all? Mly argument for
aving the rowvs upon a level is, wvhen
here is too great an accumulation of water
o be retained in the middle of the rows,
et it come over all the way in one smooth
heet, and before it collects in a body suffi
ient to wash, run into a ditch.
The great error in all that I have seen
vritten on this subject is, that there was no
iff'erence made for the fall of straight or
rooked, long or short, very steep or gentle
ill-side ditches.
I wvill here close this subject, that might
11 a volume, and still hie productive of' no
ood-still fail to convince others, as others
ave failed-to convince mue. I have tried
any plans, adopting in the outset the
iotto, " Try all, and hold fast that which is
nod."
If I have made myself understood in the
regill pgs, I anm satisfied ; and, in coin
usion, inbehalf of the plan here recomn
eunded, wilonly claim of others a fair
lal.

Peel off all the skin, and pull the flesh off
the bones in as large pieces as you can, then
dredge it will a little flour, and fry it a nice
browin in brtter, toss it up in rich gravy, well
soasoned, and thicken it with a piece of
butter rolled in flour; jnst belore you send it

YEAST. -A new method or inakng yenst,
is to take a large tea-cup full of split and
dried peas, put them in a pint of boiling wa
ter, cover them closely to excnde the air,
place them. hy the side or the fire for twenty
tloqr hours, when it should have a flne froth
on the top. A table-spoon full will raise a
pound of flour.
To M.%xr SNow BALLs.-Swell half a
pound of rice in water with a roll of lemon
peel until tender, and drain it. Divide it
into five parts, and roll a pared apple, cored,
and the hole filled with cinnamon and sugar,
in each heap, tying them up lightly in sepa.
rate cloths. Boil for an hour, and serve with
pudding sauce.
Apr.E FntTrEs.-Beat six eggs until
quite light, then stir in one teaspoonful of
s-t, one tablespoonful of fine white sugar,
the grated rind and juie of half a lemon, one
piit of milk, half a pound of sifted flour;
stir all well together and mix it into a batter,
-cnd fry and servo as above. This batter
may also be fried on a griddle as pancakes.
How TO Coox A PomTAo.-Wash it well,
but let there be no scraping. At the thickest
end cut off a piece the size of a sixpence.
This is the safety valve through which the
steam escapes, and all rents in the skin are
therehy prevented,just as the valve prevents
a rupture in the steanm boiler.
Cunxx P~UnmstO.-Tlo three eggs beaten
very light, stir in a pint and a half flour,
s:lt to your taste, mix a little milk, then put
in 6 ounces of sugar; just belre you put
it in the oven add a pint of thick cream.
B.ake for three quarters of an. hour.
