,fatmtri sm DRAINING PREVENTS INJURY FRdM DRWITII. That draining "deepens the soil," " iereases the effect of manures," and "!engthens the sea son" of working th - land, we haw- already si-own; the fact that it "I-revent the injurious effects of drouth," however seeming a paradox, remains to be accounted for. We all know that a denp and mellow soil rr tains moisture much better than a shallow and hard one. "Water is held in the soil between the minute particles of earth. If these partee. be pressed together compactly, there is no spee left between them for water.' Compact subsoils are but little permeable to water, compared with the same when broken up, pulverized, and mel lowed. The one is porouse and drinks in mois ture like a sponge; the other absorlis it in but small quantities, and readily parts with the same on the application of heat. The one takes it from the air, which passes freely through it; the other, impervious to the air, or any sligItly pow erful influences, remtains unehang~ed. LUndrained soils, as we have shown, Iecone compact after heavy rains, by the evaporation of the waterwih which they are saturated: drained soils, on the contrary, become wore porous from the filtration of the same amount of moisture into the drains below. Draining prevents injury from drouth, by giv ing a better growth to plnts in the early sum mer. Seed town on any soil containing stag nant water, sends no roots below that water-line, but may for a while grow well from roots near the surftee. But let drouth come, the water line sinks rapidly, the roots having no depth to seek moisture bLelow, are parched and burnwl, and without rain the crop is irrepairablv injured. On a drained and dee-pened soil the roots ro down without obstruction, and are thus prepared to withstand the effectv of the long continued dry weather so eften experienced. That they will d, so,. a thuistund facts in the experience of the farmeT will prvov to him that observes thema. If it be grunted, as we think it must be, that d'raining deepens and meliows the soil, it folows that draining lrevents1Irouth fr in affecting inju. riouily the growth tof plants. 1 1834, an excer sively dry season, Prot. Flint of Mass., gathered a mass of t--xtimony in regard to its effects on the crops, and the best means of preventing in jur to the sante. The returns came back, as wit one voico, in favor of deepening and mel lowing the soil, by draining, deep plowing, sub soiling and frequent culture, in the case of hoed crops. "The drouth affect.d deep plowdd lands very little; on those that were faithfully sub sailed, the corn leaves did not roll at all, while on those that were shallow plowed, the corn crop sulfered mnch, and other crops were seriously affected." A case has been stated, where a crop of beans were planted, grown, and ripened, on it drained and stubsoiled field, without a shower ot fifteen minutes duration, or supply of wat -r from 'iny a uree, save from the dews of Heaven and the moisture from beneath. At the same time, in fields adjacent, v-getation was parched and crisp, making no growth whatever from lack of moiture.-Country Gentleman. A FIRST RATE fIl1lTEWAS11. We have tried various preparations for white washing ceiling?, and the walls of unpapered rooms, but have never found anything that was entirely satisfactory until the present spiing. We have now something that atlbrds a beauti ful, clear, white color, and which cannot be rubbed off We procured, at a paint store, a dollar's worth of first quality " Paris White-33 lbs., at three cents per lb.-and for this quantity, one pound of white glue, of the present quality, usually called eooper's glue, because mannufacttured bvy *Peter Cooper, oL New York. Retail prlice 50 cents per poundi. For one day's work, half pound of the glue was put in a tin vessel, anwl covered with cold water over night. In the muening this was carefully heated until dis solved, wvhen it was added to 16 lbs. of the Paris White, previously stirred in a mnoderate quantity of hot water. Enough water was then added to give tbe whocle a proper muilky ':on-i teney, when it was applied with a brush in the ordinary namer. Our 33 lbs. of P'aris White arpd 1 lb. of glue sutliced for two ceilinug' and the walls and ceilinigs of seven other smaller roornis A single co:tt is equal to a double coat of linme wash, while the white is far more lively or brilliant than lijtte. Indeeed the color is nearly equal to that of "Zinc White," whigh costs at least four times as mnteh. We are satisfied, by repeated tris, that no whitewash can be muade to adhere firmly without glue, or some kind of sizing, and this will invariably be colored, in time, with the caustic lime. 'The Paris White, on the contrary, is simuply pure washe-d chalk, and is entirely inert, producing no caustic etfect on the sizing Any of our readers who try this, atnd are as well pleased with it as we are, ii ill con.,ider the informnation wvorth many time.s the cost of an entire volumne of the ..gric-u/ti.risvt. Ilad we known of it when we first "set ups house-keep ing," it would have saved us zanch labor, and the annoyance of garments ofteni soiled by con tact witth whitewash--not to mention the sav ing of candles, secured by having the ceiling always Wrhite enough to reft ctinstead of absorb ing the rays of lhght.-Am. Agriculuarist. Pis AVruMrEro-lIow -ro Coox, &c.--Let the melons remain on the vines until they begin to turn yellowish-then gather thenm carefully. without braising, and put them away ini a cool place for winter use. *When you wish to cook them, peel otf the skiryand cut up the meloni small, taking out the seed, soft pulp, if any, &c. Put them in a preserving kettle, wi ith just enough water to keep theta from biurnmng, anid stew over a tolerably brisk fire for 3 or 4 hours. or until the whole is reduced to a soft pulpy mass, free fromn lumps, anid thoroughly " done." You have, then, a subatance resemnbling grecen apples stewed, and by adding a little stugar nad lemon juice to it, and making it up with the crust in the usual way, it is itupossib!e to tell it froma a fresh apple pie. The lemoni juice is necessary to give it flavor, as it is rather insipid without it. I f you desire a pumpk-in or cus'ard pie of the melons, stew as above directed, but omrit the Lemon, and brim-g the pulpy mass to the proper richness and consisteney by the addition of .-u gar, rnilk and eggs. Little of either of these ingredients will be found necessary-only sufli <eient to give the melon color and flavor, it skillfuity prepared, these mnelons will be found an ismportant auxiliary to the housewife, during several months in the fall and winter. We have kept them sound and hard until March.-Sut: ern Cuiticator. "INCLINE Tii?~E Ea!"--To cure tho head ache, in Mexico, they give a tea'poonful of rum, poured intg the ear!t The head should be bent down on the side from which the pain proceeds, (says Thompson, the Mexican traveller,) and, after receiving the fluid, the patient should re main quiet till the pain subsides, which is usu ally in three or four minutes. Mecc.-If muck were not a fertilizer, still it is valuable as an amendment to light, especially sandy soils. It stiffens and gives consistency to the mass, and is very retentive of moisture more so than anything else. It is also impossi ble to dry it so'that there will not be twenty per cent., of water left in it. Muck tLus not only helps to give consistency to light soil, but it also enables it to withstand drought. PaRanEvixINGTTER.-The farmers of Aber deen, Scotland,'are said to practice the following method for eurin'g'their butter, which gives it a great superiority over that of their neighbors: " Take two quai-ts of the best common salt, oaie ounce of sugar and one of saltpetre ; take one ounce of thts composition for onue pound of butrtor; work well into the mass aiid close it up for use. The butter cured with this mixture ap pears of rich and marrawy substance anud fine color, and acquires a little hardness. D~r. An dlerson says ; 'I have eaten the butter cured with the above composition that has been kept for fiur years, anda it iL as 'Ssweet as at first.' It anust b: -ii ted, houwe~ r. that butter that is thus enred refl.ires to .:a. et three weeks or a month before it is use-i. If it is sooner opened, the salt is not sufficiently lIende~d with it, and sometimes the coolness of the nitre will be perceived, which totally disannears aftarwards." SufEEP KIr..ING DoGs.-A correspondent of the Rijt,uh d Vuigj gives the followinig: Let mue publish tb the sheep wissing world a remedy against the destruction of sheep by dog., which wa given me, a short time since, by a highly respectable and valutble friend, idinself an extensive wool grower. It coisist <iiply itt polacinig on one s.heep in every ten of the li-ek, a bell of tne usual ,ize for slep. The instinct of te dog promupta him to do all hi, acts in a .,y, -tealthy manner ; his attack. up(.n sl.eep tire iost frequently nade at jught, whiile they are at rest, and the sudden and simult-inteouts jingling of all the bells strikes terrol to the dog--they turn tail atid leave the sheep, fearing the niise of the bells will lead to their exposure. This ratio of bells might be Made to vary according to the size of the flock. The importance of sheep presmxvation fromn dogs, the writer hopes, will claim fur this conmnuni cation nn insertioi in tuost of the papers of this Union, that a reinedy so cheap and simple may be fully tested. A tubful of soapsuds, farmers bould remnie ber, is worth as much as a wheel-barrow of good ianure. Everv bucket of soalk-uds should be thrown where it will not be lot. Th garden is a goid ruad convenient place in which to di1 poe of it ; but the roots of grape vines, ligs, young tree.,, or anythinig of the sort will do as well..-Lj Plustrated. When a house is infested4 by rats which refuse to iiible at toasted cheese ad the usual baits, a few drops of the scented oil of rhodium, poured m the bottom of a cage trali, will almost inva rialbly aLtit-t it full of the " mischievous rodents" before norning. We have knowui this to be tried with extraordinary success. Where a trap hiated with all tnuner of edibles had fidled to attniwt a sing-l rat, the oil of rhodini caused it to be coupletelv crowded night after night, until he house was 'leared of the noisome visitors. dhgtid Stdisr.
