(From the Cotton Planter and Soil.] CORN AND COB MEAL AS FOOD FOR STOCK. DR. CLOuD-Dear Sir: In the last num ber of the Cottoa Planter, (November) I noticed an article on corn cobs, taken from the Western Agriculturist, with comments on it by the "Ohio Cultivator," and the "Farmer and Mechanic." A word on this subject, if you please. Dr. Jackson's analysis of the corn cob gave a true or false result. Judging from his character and qualifications as a chemist, it is fair to presume it gave a true result. Now, although I have not the most implicit faith in all the conclusions of scietific experi menters, it would seem unreasonable to doubt the correctness *of a fact like this. If chemistry can do any thing, it surely can resolve substances into their constituentele ments; and if in doing this, Dr. Jack'son found in a hundred parts of the corn cob on ly four and a half of nutritious matter, I can see no reason why we should doubt the conclusion drawn from this fact by the "Western Agriculturist," that "it is of scarcely more value to consume as food than as fuel." I think, Mr. Editor, there is some misap prehension in regard to the value of the corn cob as food for live stock; and as I have a very small modicum of experience on the subject, I ask leave to give it to your readers for what it is worth. 'First, ithe fact, and second, the inference. A few years back, being very short of corn, I determined to economise in the fat tening of my pork by having my corn ground in the ear, and then feeding it in the orm of swill. The ears were first mashed or crushed in a common plaster mill, and then run through a corn mill and ground as fine as meal is usually made. My hogs did not fatten kindly. Indeed, I finally believe the same amount of corn thrown to them in the ear would have made better pork. The excrement which passed from them had ex actly the appearance of the meal of the cob, undigested. So much for the fact-and now for the inference. I do not believe that corn cobs will fatten hogs, whatever they may do to some other kinds of stock. In hog feeding, I regard them as a positive in jury. On this subject I draw the following conclusion. That class of animals which from their internal organization requires a great deal of that kind of food, familiarly termed by farmers roughness-such as corn 'blades, husks, straw, and the like, may be profitably fed on cob meal, provided the corn be ground with it. If 1 were called upon to decide between feeding cows or horses on the cob meal alone or making fuel of the cob, I should send them to the kitchen fire. So thinks your friend, CL~OD TH UMPER. From the Winnsboro Register. BORCHO SUCRE, CHINESE SUGAR CANE, OR SU GAR MILLET. Mr. Editor: I sent you last week, by our mutual friend, .Dr. R--, several joints of' the Sorgho Sucre or Chinese Sugar Cane. This is destined, I think, to prove one of the greatest acquisitions to the agricultural interests of the country, that it has lately met with. Having planted this year one qjuart of the seed, Ilunhesitatingly pronounce it far superior to either the D~ourah or comn moni Millet. It is superior, because it can be cut as often as either of the others, and is far ahead of both in the abundance of sac charine matter; consequently, ism uch better for fattening purposes. Its greatest value, however, consists in its fitness for. mtaking sugar and syrup. From some experiments made by ex-Governor Ham mond, perhaps the nmost practical pilanter in theState., ithias proved almost if' not quite equal to the su gar cane itself. From a Texas paper I also learn that it is there supposed to contain the juice, in a more highly concentrated form than the common cane of the country. If' this be so, it places it in the'power of every~ planter to manufacture his own sugar and syrup at home. For this purpose tihe inn chinery cannot cost more than one hund red dollars. From a calculation based upon Governor Hammond's experi ments, after making anm ple allowance for probable error, the amount of syrup from each acre, cannot lie less than one hundred and forty gallons. Tfhi.Tat fifty cents per gallon, will yield seventy dollars. What business will yield as much!i In conclusion, Mr. Editor, 1 venture upon the prediction that in less than ten years sugar and syrup enough will be made in South Carolina, from the Sugar Millet, or Sorgho Sucre, to supply the home demand. Indeed I would not be surprised if South Carolina b~ecamne a sugar growing, instead of' a cotton growing State. I have this year saved about two bushels of seed, a portion of which I propose dis tributing among the members of your Ag ricultural Society at its next meeting. As it is a matter of general interest, will you be kind enough to publish in your col umns the report of Gov. Hammond upon this subject. W. S. L. ALABAuA WINE.-We had the pleasure a few days since, in comnpanty with some half' dozen of our citizens, to sample sonme speci mens of' a very superior winme fromm the vine yard of our enterprising and public spirited fellow-citizen, Dr. UlIce. This winie is the vintage of September last, and the grapes the first crop from the vines, the third year from planting. The wine is the .pure, una dulterated jui<.e of the Catawba grape, of a beautiful amber color. yet as clear as crys tal-with an aroma indescribably rich, and fully equal to Mr. Longworth's D)ry C'ataw lxa of three years vintage. These specimens, with those of Mr. Axt and others, that we have sampled the present year, assure us that the very best-wine can b'e made in the "Sunny South." Nay, miore, the day will come, and that quickly, when in comparison with our wine, the name of the "Wine of the Rhine" will be a by-word of reproach! and classed only with the cold climnated wines of the Ohio.-Cottan Planter and Soil, Rous.-Rub into a pound of fiour two ounces of butter; beat the white of three eggs to a forth, and add a tablespoonfull 'of good yeast, a little salt, and sufficient warm milk to make a stiff' dough. Cover and put it where it will be kept warm, and it will rise in an hour. Then make it into rolls, or round cakes, put them on a floured tin, and bake in a quick oven They will be done in ten or fifteen minute. ABOUT OVERSEERS. The following timely suggestions in re gard to the duties of Overseers, and the proper definition of a "fine crop," are'taken from an article in the March number of De Bow's Review. Farmers, as well as Over seers, might read such a paragraph profita bly: "In conclusion, bear in mind that a fne cro) consists, first, in an increase in number, and marked improvement in the condition and value of the negroes; second, an abun dance of provisions of all sorts for man and beasts, carefully saved and properly housed ; third, both summer and winter clothing made at home; also, leather tanned and shoes and harness made when practicable; fourth, an improvement in the productive qualities of the land, and in the general con dition of the plantation; fifth,' the team and stock generally, with the farming implements and the buildings, in fine order at the close of the year; and young hogs more thar enough for next year's killing; then, as hea vy a crop of cotton, sugar, or rice, as could be. made under the circumstances, sent to market in good season, and of prime quali ty. The time has passed when the overseer was valued solely for the number of bales of cotton, hogasheads of sugar or tierees of rice he had made without reference to his other qualifications." POINTS IN A GOOD HORSE.- In purchasing a good horse, sight, wind, feet and limbs must be the uppermost objects of inquiry; for nine horses out of ten are defective in one of these particulars. First, then, exam ine his eyes, and do this before he comes out of the stable; see that they are perfect ly clear and transparent, and that the pupils or apples of the eye are exactly alike in size and color. Next examine his pipes; if good and sound, on being nipped in the gul let, he wil. utter a sound like that from a bellows; but if his lungs are touched, and he is broken winded, lie will give vent to a dry, husky short cough; look to his limbs, and in passing your hand down his legs, if you find any unnatural protuberance, or puf finess, or if feeling first one leg then the other, you discover any difference between them, disease, more or less, is present; he may not be lame, but lie is not clean upon his legs. If he is broad and full between the eyes, he may he depended on as a horse of good sense, and capable of being trained to almost anything. If you want a gentle horse, get one with niore or less white upon him; many suppose that the parti-colored horses belonging to circuses, shows, &c., are selected for their oddity ; but it is on account of their docility and gentleness; in fact, the more kindly you treat horses, the better you will be treated by them in return.-Spirit of the Times. A CrRE FOR CRAMP.-Mr. C. Diessed, writing from Dablonoga, Georgia, sends us what he regards a sovereign recipe for cramp in cholera, or indeed any cramp, and re quests us to "subserve the cause of human ity" by publishing it, which is this. to-wit: " A cold application to the bottom of the bare feet, such as iron, water, rock. earth, or ice. wvhen it can be had-the colder the het ter. It will relieve in five minutes. If in the upper part of the bod y or arm s, then apply the remedy to the hands also."-Ex change Paper. *A COUNTY Pt'Dniso.--Mix the yolks of three eggs naoothily with three heaped table spoonfuls of flour; thin the butter wvith new milk till it is of the consisteunev of cream: whisk the whites of the eggs sepparately, stir them into the butter, and hoil the pud ding in a floured cloth or basin for an 'hour. B~ef're it is served, cut the top quickly in crossbars. pour over it a small pot of~ rasp berry or strawvberry jelly or jam, and send it quickly to the table. -Shecriff's Saic.
