D. FULLER1'S PRIZE ACRE OF CORN. R. M. STOKaS Esso.-Dear Sir: Noticing some time since a call made upon me, by the courteous and intelligent correspondent of the Farmer and Planter, " Laurens," in an article re-published in the Herald, to give my mode of managing the acre of creek bottom, submitted to the Laurens Agricul tural Society at its last meeting for the pre. mium on Corn, and also being urged to do so by others, I most cheerfully comply, after begging pardon for unavoidabla delay. Not, however, without serious misgivings that many will be disappointed to learn that so large a result has been achieved by so sim. ple and, in most respects such ordinary means. The land selected for the experiment was one acre in the bed of an old mill.pond, care fully measured by a competent and disin terested person with a Surveyor's chain. The soil was deep, rich, porous, and suffi ciently dry and sandy to pulverize well. It was. ciltivated. the year previous in corn, and left clean of grass and weeds, or other litter. I had it first broken the 12th of Jan uary with a long narrow scooter, as deeply as a single mule could draw it. On the 1st of April, the weeds beginning to appear, it was again plowed with a scooter. On the 13th of April the corn rows were laid of 3 feet 10 inches in width with a shovel plow, ,the corn dropped 12 inches apart in the drill, and covered in the ordinary way with two scooter furrows. When ready to come up, it was boarded of. Three grains having been dropped where one was expected to stand, and coruing up well, I had a most ex cellent stand for the crop though it was in jured to some extent by the bud worm and birds. It was replanted on the 1st of May. The thianing was delayed on account of the bud worm, till it reached the height of about 12 inches; it was then reduced to one stalk in'the hill, making the stand 3 feet 10 inches in the ro'w to 12 inches in the drill. The 10th of May it received its first plowing, siding with a long scooter, and plowing out the balks with very broad, long shovels, for the purpose of better pulverizing the clods. May 17th. Hoed and thinned to a stand. June 9th. Pulled off suckers, of which there were a good many, notwithstauding the thickness of the corn. June 10th. Plowed the second and last time, with short, broad shovels, ruznning quite light by and some 6 or 8 inches from the corn.. June 13th., Hoed again, which merely consisted in closing up any.gaps left by the plow, and shaving out any green stuff that the 'plow did not destroy, wounding as little as'passible the corn rdots. * The corn was then "laid by," having re ceived, after plantinig, but two plowiugs and two hoeings in -the cultivation of the cropi and two plowings in course of preparation. The product was carefully measured in the presence of two disinterested and re speitalsle'witness, and found to be 86 bosh els and 3 pecks. It was damaged by a se vere storm wvith which it was visited on the last of June, by which a great deal of it was blown down, and the yield shorted, in the opinion of severat who saw it, to the amount of 15 or 20 bushels. The object of the experiment was to sat isfy myself to wvhat extent corn could be successfully crowded,, and what would be the probable: maximum yield on our very best lands, unsder the most judicious system of culture and under the most favorable cir cumstances. I have long thought that we are falling far short of producing the amount of corn or other grain onour lands that we ought to do. The farmers of England thought fifty years ago, that 10 bushels of wheat per acre-was a handsome return ; now they make 50 bushels per acre, and have not reached the maximum. The farmers of K.'tucky, Ohio, and many of the Northern and North-Wjestern States, wake frequently 100) bushelsecorn per acre, and oecasionally report '200: yet it is matter for proud triumph and boasting, if the farmers of South Caro lina reach the, very modest yield of. 50 bu'shels per acre.,. Why is it sol I s it the .ffect of difference, of climate, soil, or ag rienkural skill? Or is it from a coinibination of allttbese causesi Our seasons are Ion ge- aiour soil, though often poor and ex Masted, presents endless varieties, stretching aait. does from the sands of the sea shore and swamps of the tide-water Distriet, to the-rick, valleys and the coves of the moun sains..JLdoubt not the fauit is largely our owa... Our farms, with judicious manage. ient and a more thorough and sfdlful sys - .tem of cuiture cag be wade greatly to ex ceed the ordinary product. We are in want of many of the elements of high success. We neeli greater attainments in, and more * thorough application of the science of agri culture. We need to have the number of aarea undertaken to be cultivated, curtailed, and 'better proportioned to our physical ca pacity, and that, of our horses and mules. We-need time to prepare the soil as it should be done for the reception of the seed, and, to make and apply manures. We need a chemical-analysis of our' soils, that we may know to what oropis they are best adapted, and in. what 'ingredients they may be most deficient. In short, our wants are very great and pressing, but above -all, we need greater pride and a higher spirit of emnlation among us as a class. Yours, &c., A. C.-FULLER. ALE 4:1E APPLE--80HUI SEEDLINS. Wlhusa(says the. editor- of the Rbal~y Jowwf the value of the A pple as an arti ale of (ood is far underrated. Besides con taining sugar, micilage and other nutritious matter, apples Metain vegetable acids,,-aro matia, qualidies, drc., which act powerfully in the,-eapaciky of refrigerants, tonies, and antiseptiest and. when freely used at the s'eason of nsellow ripeness, they prevent de biitjaqdigestion, and avert, without .joubt, -saaoy-oktheiills that flesh is heir to.

The French"and Germans is apples .exien'sively, asdo theinhabitats of all European nations. The laborers de pend upon them as an article -of food, and frequently make a dinoqr of sliced apple., and bread. There is no fruit cooked in as many different ways in our country as the apple, nor is there any fruit whose value, as ana article of nutriment, is as great, and so little appreciated. RENARX&-We fully endorse everythinw said above respecting the value of the Apple. and w d remark, in addition, that it is one of the s-irest fruits grown in the South, s:!it ing itself readily to nearly all localities, from the seaboard to the mountains. The opinion has heretofore prevailed that good Apples could not be raised in the South, and that we must of necessity look to the North for our winter supply. The introduc. tion of the many new Southern Seedlings, however, and the splendid exhilitions ol Southern WMter Apples, at the Atlanta and Montgomery Fairs, furnish suficient proof of the fallacy of this idea, and should in duce all Southern Fruit Growers to cultivate mainly those varieties which have originated in their own climate. All late Northern Apples (with very few exceptions) ripen prematurely: in the South, often rotting on the tree, and, therefore, can not be depended upon, as 7ceepers: while, on the contrary, many of our Southern Seed. lings hang on the tree, uninjured, until the last of November, and if packed away care fully in a cool temperature, will keel) per fectly sound until the new crop ripens again, in May and June. We have, in previous volumes oft he Cul tivator, pictured and described many of our best Seedling A pples, and intend giving in creased attention to- Southern Ponology hereafter. It is the most delightful branch of our Agriculture, and may, if properly managed, be made amply remunerative. EDs. So. CULT. From the Soil of the South. ' GARDEN WORK FOR MAY. There are many seeds that may yet be planted. Sow late cabbages. Continue to plant all the varieties of beans. Plant mel. ons, squashes, and cucumbers; and if you would avoid a bill at the tinner's, plant gourds. Sow mrarrowfat peas; sow peppers, egg plants, bemato, okra. Continue to plant corn for a succession. Look well now to thinning out the vegetables that are growing. Leave not more thatn three melous, squashes or cucumbers in a hill. Beets, parsnips, ear rots, or salsify, should not stand within eight inches of each other. Keep the ground around the Irish potatoes mellow, and clear of weeds; pinch off the bloom buds as fast as they appear. Work the garder, morning and evening and use the hoe with judgment. Leached ashes and soap suds may be appli. ed with great advantage to ibe growing veg. etables. If the striped bug is troublesome to the vines, dust guano over the ground jnst under the leaves of the plant, it will drive them away. Look among the cahbage plants eamly in the morning for the cut worm; he is readily found by the destruc tion he leaves behind. Snap benns will be greatly improved by mulching between the rows. From the Southern Farmer. REMEDY AGAINST TIHE STRIPED BuG. 1MEssus. EDIToRs: As the time is-near at band when water-mnelons, cymlings, cante 1opes, &c., should be planted, you will con~ fer a favor by publishing the following remne dy against the ravages of the bug that so frequently destroys thema. As soon as the vines are attacked by them, dust them over as often as necessary with the common black pepper, fitely pulverized. This may be done when the dew is on them without injury to the vines, as I anm inform ed by a gentleman who has tried it. May not the pepper be also a gnod remedy against the ravages of the Bly or bug so destructive to young turnips and tobacco plants? 1 intend to try it. and if it is, may 1 not claim the premium offered by the British Govern. ment for the discovery of a sure remedy against the turnip flyi Very respectfully, &c.. J. H. DAVIS. Gartsville, March 18th 56. HINTS TO FARMEMS, Toads are the best protection of cabbage against lice.. Plants, when drooping, are revived by a few grains of camphor. Pears are generally improved by grafting on the mountain ash. Sulphur is valuable in preserving grapes, &c., from insects. Lard never spoils in warm weather, if it is cooked enough ini frying out. In feeding with corn, sixty pounds ground goes as far as one hundred pounds in the kernel. Corn meal should never be ground very fine, it injures the richness of it. TIurnips of small size have double the nu tritious matter- that large ones have. - Ruta Baga is the owly root that increase in nutritious qualities as it increases in size. Sweet olive oil is a certain cure for the bite of a rattlesnake, Apply it internally and externally. Rats and other vermin are kept away from grain biy a sprinkling of garlic when paeking the sheaves. Money skillfully expended in drying land by draining or otherwise, will be returned with ample interest. To cure scratches on a horse, wash the legs with warm soapsuds, and then with beef brine. Two applications will.cure in the worst case. Trimber, when cut in the spring and ex posed to the weather with the bark on, de cays much sooner than if cut in the fall. Experiments showv apples to be equal to potatoes to improve hogs, and decidedly su perior for feeding cattle. Wild onions may be destroyed by culti rating corn,.ploughing and leaving the field in its ploughed state all the winter.-Soil of the South. LADIEs, a refreshing lotion, possessing eleaning and clearing qualities, may be made thus: Take a pint of orange-flower water ad a pint of rain water, with a sprig of -osemary; add to tihis four ounces of castile toap, scraped finely ; boil all together, and ottle for use.

Oh I give me a home in the country wide, And a seat by the farmer's wood fireside, .Where a fire burns bright, On a frosty night, Where the jest and the song and the laugh are free; Oh! thE farmer's home is the home for me. Oh I give me a home in the country wide, When the earth comes out as a blushing bride, With her buds and Bowers. In the bright spring hours, Her bridal song ringing, from fresh leaved trees, And melody Roats on the perfumed breeze. In summer, a seat in a shady nook, And close by the side of a cooling brook, . Where the violet grows, Or the pale swamp rose, Fainting and sick, 'neath the sun's scorching beam Dips her fair petals in the cooling stream. Oh I give me a home in the country wide, In the golden days of a farmer's pride; When his barns are filled, From the fields he's tilled, And he frels tat his yearly tabk is done, Smiling at winter, he beckons him on. - THE MERCIANT'S CLERK AND TUE PLOW. soY.-The.youtng man who leaves the farni. field for the merchant's desk or the lavyer's t or doctor's office, thinking to dignify or en noble his toil, makes a sad mistake. He passe., by that step, from independence to vassalage. He barters a natural for an ar tificial pursuit, and he must be the slave of I the caprice of customers and the chicane of i trade, either to support himself' or to acquire a fortune. The more artificial a man's pur. suit, the more debasing is it morally aid physically. To test it, contrast the mer. chant's clerk with the plowboy. The far mer may have the most exterior polish, but the latter, under his rough outside, possesses the truer stamina. He is the freer, franker, happier, and nobler man. Would that young men night judge of the dignity of labor by its usefulness and manliness, rather than by the superficial glosses it wears. Therefore, we never see a man's nobility in his kid gloves and toilet adornments, but ill that sinewy arm, whose outlines, browned by the sun, betoken a hardy, honiest toiler, under whose farmer's or miechi'asie's vest the kingliest heart may beat.-Hunt's M1lagazine. TRANSPLANTING VEGETABLES -The gar dener is frequently disappointed in his ex pectations, not only from the failui-e of seeds to vegetate, but lroin chickens, wortus, btige, drought, &c. But as all vegetables are in varibly planted too thick; there may yet be a stand got by judicious transplanting. Tap ro :ted plants, like beet, may be retmoved, if taken up with care and planted out im mediately. All the cabbage tribe are easily transplanted; so is corn, okra, peppers, toni. atoes, egg plants, -lettuce; and even beans, melons, and cucumbers, may be removed, it done with care. Those plants having sur. face roots, should be taken up so as not ti disturb the little fibres from the main root, and put in the ground again befoire they have been exp~osed to the sun and air; shade fromi the suin a few days. but give thetm all the ad vantages of the dews at night. If it is oe cessary to water the vegeta bles tranisplanted, water only at night, and if' waterinig is once commten~cd, keepi it up until it rains-SuiI of the South. A CERTaIN~ jrear-ber having changed his religion, was nmuth blamed by his friends for having deserted thtem. To excuse himsell, lie said he had seven reasotns; and, being asked what they were, replied, "IA wife and aix children.". Always give the soil thie first meal.
