Do not null your iod'k-r too early; wait until the shrinkage has commenced in the grain. 'It is otter pulled so ?arly that thc weight, of com and fodder both per acre, is scarce!) more than the weight of com would be, if left undisturbed. Better lose a.litth in fodder, by some of it drying on the stalk than to injure the grain by too earl) stripping (.-iT the blades. 41 If sunshine ii scarce, pretty good fodder may be saved with bait' a day's hot .sim by bundill g ii small sheaves, stacking, and in a day 01 two pal! down again and cool and dry wh.;n it may be re-stacked in safety." Ji the weather is good, cure before stacking. If well cured, secure in large stacks whicl expose little to thc weather, if not, pul up in small stacks of eight hundred or a thousand pounds. As taking off thc leave* kills the plant immediately, the corn ii less injured by not pulling the fodder, bul instead thereof cutting up thc corn ai th< ground as soon a* the leaves below thi ear are mostly yellow or dry, cud thei pulling up in shocks until thoroughly cured, then taking off the cars when drier1 sufficiently, and stacking the stalks willi the fodder is not aa convenient for feeding to horses and mules, but cattle and hog. will eat up nearly thc entire stalk. Oi thc corn may be topped-that is, a? snor r.s the ear? begin to glaze or got hard, iii r.talks are cat off with the leaves attached, just jtbove. the ear, and after curing a dav in the sun, they are tied in ?undies ano cujed in si -c!cs.

Thc great deficiency in provision crop? should be made up in some measure, h\ an unusual crop of turnips. They will h*- found useful for wintering all farm stock, including horses. .English writer. say that one feed per day of turnips i> very useful in keeping the system of ;. horse in a proper state. We have no ex perience on this point. Ruta Baga should be sown a-:, once, if not already put in". Thc common sorts. Fiat Dutch, Red Top. Norfolk, Globe, Yellow Dutch, eec, may be sown from the last of July through Anglist and September, btit the best crop. are usually made from the August sow inga. Tue ground must be repeated iv ploughed and harrowed Until well pulver ized. A writer remarks that the ': ground should bs as much more pulverized flu - turnip?, than fi?r wheat, as the seed is finer.'1 A deep. rich, mellow, sand;, loam, ploughed dec-ply butr.ot inverted is the best for this crop, and cannot be made too rich. They may bo sowy in drills two feet apart, and thinned to from K?.X to fifteen inches in the drill, or sown broadcast. The drill system gi ves achancc to cultivate and clear the ground of weed-?. The best crops are made whore, the land lias been enriched by cattle or sheep hav ing been penned thereon. Should- you wish to manure in the drill, open a wide deep furrow with a shovel plow, scatter manure thickly along this drill, throw n broad bed on the manure with a turning plow, and after raking the bed smooth and even, drill in the seed very thinly. A bottle, with a good cork, in which a small quill is inserted with the ends open, will enable a smart boy to sow evenly about as fast as be can walk. Rake .them in very lightly,and, ?ey come up when thin to a stand and keep the ground olean, i?pht and mel low. Keep the earth fresh and loose around Sweet Potato plants, and the grounds free from weeds until the vines cover the patch. Cut and save Hay and Fodder, or pull and make all you can from Crab Grass, Crowfoot, Pefvinoa, Bermuda, Millet, blades of Corn and Sorghum.

From tbe Southern Cultivator. Hay. EDITORS SOUTHERN CULTIVATOR : Chemistry iuforms ns, that of the various ingredients which compose grass, those portions which are immediately soluble in water, are best fitted for thc purples .of nutrition ; and therefore it should be eui when the largest amoiuit of gluten, sugar, and other soluble matter Ls con tained in it. And those grasses should j be selected which are richest in these j substances. Sumo grasses are composed j largely of woody fibre, and are very poor : in all ttiat is valuable, in producing red |fli*h and fitt Many of the constituents of tho animai body.'and of vegetable j production, are not; ri y the same, and in some cases identical. Magaric Acid, from lard, is tire same as that from Olive ; Oil. Vegetable and animal albumen arc j very similar. Hence, the important? of j presenting proper food to animals ; it is i economy in labor and Lime, producing i more flesh and a better animal, in a shor I ter time, than when fed on poor forage, in which there is great waste. The period when grass is most, useful for hay, is when in full bloom. When it first springs up, the chief constituent of its blades is water-the amount of solid matter being comparatively small. As ?ts growth advances, solid matter is de posited-sugar and soluble matter at first increasing up to a certain point, then j giving way to woody libro, the saccharine m :tter and nutritive juices being most j abundant when the grass is in full flower. I VVherr a plant has formed seed, most ol ! the valuable jukes in the stalk have been ; replaced by woody fibre, which is insolu i ble in water, and therefore until for being I assimilated in thc stomach. When-th? seed arrive at maturity, the leaves a-m stem begin to decay ; so that if the grast is not cut when in flower, it is worthless for hay, and had better be used as a seed in grain crops. There are said to be, and . probably there are. some exceptions tn . this rule. Timothy hay cut wh m in seed ! is estimated in value 14, to .*> when cut it ! bloom. The groat art of converting grass int? good hay, consists in rendering it suffi ! ciently dry to prevent its taking on tot , great heat in the stack," and afc the saint , time preserving unimpaired a largo por . tion of the nutritive juice of the plants p Where this medium cen be obtained, thc j best and most nutritious hay will be pro< I duccd. lt is a difficult point, and requires much care and attention. When put ur I too green, heating may he produced. which if it goes too far, ruins the hay. I \ sufivred to dry out by too long exposure . to the sun, the hay is worthless, and i? refused by cattle. Gr.iss should be cut in thc morning ai . dry from dew. If the swath is hpavy, ii I must be spread thinly, so as to allow th( sun and air free access to it. If this it properly done, and t hc weather favorable the grass cut early in the morning, maj j be raked into small shocks by the niddi? of the day, where it. may remain for twt br three days; at the end of which time ff the weather is favorable, they siiouk be thrown down, and after a hall' day ex posure to the sun, collected in stacks, 01 put in bulk in the barn. When the grass is suffered to remain long exposed to tin sun, without being turned, the top become brown and withered, while the mulei pari is uncured. By proper treatment, ever)1 valuable quality is proser.-ed-the hay b of a fine green color, and possesses sn pleasant a flavor that animals oat it, with relish, lr. has been contended hy many, j i hat there is no necessity for having tin t hay llioroughly dry before putting in j bulk, as it will keep even when there is j much moisture in it ; and should there be my fears entertained on this point, al! j langer may be avoided by mixing it with <alt-a practice advocated by many very sensible and practical farmers. Trials, on a large and expensive scale, have been carefully instituted to test this theory, md nave pro/en, beyond n doubt, that the addition of salt to damp hay is no prevent-ive against heating. On the con trary, if moist weather follow inmedi ately after putting it in bulk, the addition of snit, instead of being useful, is irrjuri ous; it being a well established fact, that salt, and everything impregnated with it, greedily attracts moisture from the sir. Should the newly mown grass be caught by rain, while in thc swath, the Jess it is disturbed, the better. Grass hus been found to preserve its nutritive matter for .lays, when cut wet, or u?nght by rain while in the swath. If thc weather is un ibvorable do not spread it, or even turn it in the swath. If repeatedly dried and wetted again, ic soon becomes valueless. lt is better to have it somewhat heated in the shock, than to have its nutriment leached out by alternate wettings. I- Clover, hay and pea vines may be ! curud with much less sun, thus saving j the shedding, of the leaves. Beautiful hay has been made from clover with three hours sun-then putting iu small shocks: should the heating go too far it may be spread out for a few hours. Clover and pea vines pack so loosely when in the cock, that they will not be likely to in jure from heating, unless in large bnlk. But these cocks, if anywhere near cured j should be Housed or stacked, if there is I danger of rain coming on, as their open nature renders them much more suscepti ble to injury from long storms beating into them, than hay made from the finer grasses, cocks of which are penetrated not over an inch or two by thc longest storms-all the centre part being as ?rex-n j and bright as if in the barn or stack? ! POOR FARUIKS DESTROY NATIONS.~NO intelligent man who pontpmplates the present slate of agriculture with an un. ; biased mind, can remain in doubt, even ; tor a moment, as to the stage which hus. j bantry h?5 rc-ached lu Europe, Wt lind that ?i! countri??? and reruns of the earth where man ha* pfldtteif to rentwe to the land tile c?hdjtlo3M of itc ccmitiued ier tillty; ft/ter having attained the culm Inn ting period of the greatest density of population, fall .'.ito a state of b?trebcess and desolation; Historians are wonii'to attribute the de?ay of nations to political events and social causes. . These may, indeed, heve contributed greatly to the result; but we may well ask whether scune.fer deeper cause, not se easily re- . - cognized by historians, has not produced theso events ia the lives of nattons, :ind j ?kaharmostcithe*ariena?nA?m? wars' between different races may not nave sprung from the inexorable law of self preservation. Nations, like men pass from youth to age, and thew die out-so it may appear to the superficial observer ; but, if we look at thc mattel- a little more olosely, we shall find that, as the condi tions for thu continuance cf the human race which nature has placed in the grofind are very limited and readily exhausted, the nations that have disappeared from the earth have dug their own graves by not knowing how to preserve those con ditions. Nations (like China and Japan,) who know how to preserva these condi tion of life do not die out.-Exchange. --? ? ? - Too Much Stock, Farmers lose a great deal every year by keeping more slock than they can properly food and take care of. They commit a great mistake by.keeping more than they can keep well. To keep stock well, they must be kept in a constantly thriving condition. "In summer they should have abundant pasturage, and in winter warm shelter, and all good nutri tious food they will eat. Stock tims managed are always profitable-always improving and increasing in value-rare ly, if ever.* become sick or die. and afford one pleasure lo look upon. T<> illustrate : Suppose a farmer should keen Iwfclve cowa, even in tolerable con dition, and make butler thr?v tho winter. Now, if lie could bestow the same care, attention and food upon eight, and we. j might s.-if.'Iy say six, of his cows-provi i ding them comfortable quarters, and i keeping them healthy and thriving-he ' will make much more butter from them than ho would fi om the twelve. Or if he will keep a less number of any kind of stock, and feed better, they will at any time sell foi more money than a greater number of small, scrawny, half fed animais. It is good caro and good I feed that makes good animals. And : farmers who overstock commit a great error, li' you have- plenty of feed, keep : all thc stock that you eau feed welt-but ! keen no more: but it will pay farmers j well to IVd belter, and to provide better shelter tiitui they arc in the habit of doing for ali domestic animais. No animal can thrive well even upon all the food they can eat. exposed to thc inclement weather. Warm -h-jlt(?- is indispensable W stock in winter, add those who provide no bet j ter i-"of for their stock than the blue heavens above, should lose no time in changing the policy of keeping stock. It eau only be attended with loss.-Rural World.' KEEP HOLTS ASI> SCREWS OX HAXU. livery farmer should keep a few bolts ol different >>/.-.s on hand.
