Gathering Cotton.
A planter, of Limestone County,
Alabama, communicates the following
to the Huntsville Independent :
JSOW, Mr. Editor, that the cotton
crop is cut ?hort, it would be well for
the plantar to consider how to turn it,
tb most profit. Tho first thing is to
gather it with great care and expedir
tion, for the rains, dews and atmos
phere injure it every moment after
it opens-it bleachesand washes away
the oils which gloss and strengthen
it, and gives it the rich cream color
which, designates a good article. From
the time it opens,* waste and deterio
ration begins. Owing to the drought,
the plant is stunted and the bolls so
near the ground that, when it rains,
the clajr and dirt is pattered upon
and 8tain3 it. And agpm, it should
be ginned early and with great care.
We should get the best machinery
to separate the lint from the dirt,
without breaking it. Tt is more na
{)ortant to do it carefully than rapid.-,
J ; fetter to use gins that-do it weir*
picking two bales per' diem, rather
than four. For a small crop as this
year, there is abundant labor to save
it, if it can be made available.
Another question-is it best to
gather wluUe the weather is good anil
ohuse it, and delay ginning, which
may be done in bad weather? This
is owing to the amount of crop pro
duced, aa a general rule ; but . un
doubtedly, if it can be ginned- aa it is
gathered;it is most economical, for
several reasons ; its quality is better j
it deteriorates less ; it will sell' for
more ; ia out of the way ; debts are
paid, interest saved. The planter
can sum np profit and loss, and. de
cide whether to continue the busi
ness, and if so, has more time to pre
pare for the next crop. Now, while
every planter knows all this, and is
preparing for it, yet it may be well
to stimulate by timely notice ; there
fore, let every resource be brought
intorecJu?Bition tb secare labor to gath:
er and save all the cotton made. The
new system will require all our ener
gies and ingenuity to make available
the only material we have.
Sbeep on a Poor Farm.
Some farmers of our acquaintance
fool aa antipathy to sheep, for thc
reason that they. " bite? close." .. We
consider this their' chief recommen
dation. They can .only bite close
where th? pasture 'is short, and the
pasture is short" only cm a poor farra.
..' A poor farm wfll~ n ^cessarily be en
j? cain hared with briaj*5L ja;e^ds and;
brush', in the fence corners." TJnHer'.
such conditions, we would say rod
larmer who has twenty dollars or up
wards in cash (or credit for ir, and
then let him borrow the amount il' he
has to pay one .per cent a monrh.-foi*
the use of ifc,) invest it in as many
owes, not older than three years. as
you can get for that money. Put
them this summer in such a field as
we'have described, and give them
in addition to what they can pick up.
a pint of wheat bran and oatmeal
daily, with free access to water and
sait. They will first " go for" the
brim s and clean them out ; every
porrion of that field will be trodden
ovor and over again, and the weeds
will have no chance. Fold thom on
that field daring winter, and carry to
them feed .sufficient to keep them
thriving. Get the use of a good buck
in season-Southdown would be pre
ferable-and in the spring, if you
have luck (that means if you give
them proper attention and feed rena
tarli/,) you will raise more 'lambs
than you have ewes. The money
will be more than doubled, and the
wool and manure will pay for their
toed and interest. In the spring you
may put that field in cern, with tire
certainty of getting fifty per cent.'

Toe Salt an! Lime Mixture*
The mixture is made by disolving
one bushel of salt in thy least water
possible, and then slaking with t!.;s
throe bushels of lime hot from the
kiln. This is al1 th? ?Ut that can le
used by this m . to slake the
limo. The jnost v doable lime for
agricultural purposes is shell lime, or,,
that, made lrom burning oyster o'
corn shells. Another method recom.
raonded by C. W. Johnson is, to mix
une bushel of salt with two of lime,
dry undercover, and allow it gradu
ally to decompose and unite the ..bJo
rino of the salt, with the limo. It
may be tamed occasionally :'or two
or three months, by which time't
will be well united touorher. And
whatever way is taken to form the
mixture, it should not be osed imni'-i
di.-itely, but should remain incomor
ated at least six weeksthut the chem
ical union m;?y bo -.voil formed. The
chemical changes rh.'.r take place
are: The chlorine of rho salt unites
wirb the lime and forms a (-"arse
fhloiide of lime : tho soda of tho sall
mostly set free, .md probably slow
ly attracts carbonic acid from thc
. Lr. mid ? forms carbonate of sody.
Thu mixturo has* a remarkable do-'
composing power, and if you mix
throe or lour bushels of it with n coid
of swamp muck, leaves, or any other
v j nable matrer, ir will soon lie re
duced toa powder. It is most excel
' lent to mis with coarse manar- for
the purpose of decomposing ant ro:i
i'.- :..ig it ?m\- Arter the sour muck
.from wet places is decomposed by the
kdt und lime it is then in ripe condi
tion co be composted with barny at d
tn nure, and compost becomes as va?
, ?uble as tie barnyard manure alono.
Almost every farm has a supply of
muck, which might bo turned into
valuable manure. Hog manure has
been ghostly benefitted by mixing
v. .th.tho salt and lime-correcting its
j..nk character and fitting it. for gar
den us.e; but it is probably batter
that the salt and lime should first be
.-.imposted with muck and then ap
plied to hog manure. We stated in
our first article on manures that salt
and lime, composted with b?royard
manure, wonk! preserve the ammo
nia. This has been considered by
most who have used it as practically
correct; but, theoretically, that small
portion of this mixture, which be
comes carbonate of soda, would be
sappo3ed ::o dissipate the ammonia,
unless the chlorine was sufficient to
absorb it all, which is, no doubt, gen
erally the case.
The salt and lime mixture alone
makes an excellent top-dressing for
. most crops, at the rate of twenty to
\ thirty bushels per acre. The char
acter of the lime is so much changed
by she union of the salt, that there
is no danger of injury from an exces
1 sive quantity, and, where land has
been overlimed, a top-dressing of salt
will correct it at once. The decom
posing effect of this mixture upon
vegetable matter in the soil is very

accounted for on the supposition pf

the soil, and rendering it fit for plant
food. It is also, very destructive-;of
insects, grubs,.etc., in the soil. Like
salt, this mixture has the power of
attracting moisture from the. air, and

Farmers Should Take Enough
Sleep?
Said one of the oldest and most
successful farmers in this, State, " I
dont care to have my men get up be
fore "five or half-past five in the morn
ing, and if they go to bed early and
can,sleep soundly, they will do more
work than if they got up at four or
half-past.four." We-do not believs
in the eight-hour law, but neverthe
less, are inclined""-^ thinbthnt, -afca
general mle, we work foo many hours
on the farm. The best man we ever
had to dig ditches seldom wo -ked,
when digging by the rod, more that
nine hours .a day. tAnd it is so in
I chopping woodsy ufe cord ; the men
who accomplish the most" work the
fewest hours. They bring ^li'th?ir
' brain and muscle into exercise, and
make every blow tell. A slow, plod
ding Dutchman may turn a grind
stone or a fanning-mill better than
an ,energeii&Yankee, but this kind of
- work ia.uow mostly done by horse
. pofrer,: and the farmer needs, above
. nil- else, a clear head, with. all his
.faculties of mind and muscle light
and active, and under complete con
trol. Much, of couree, depends on
temperament, but; as a rule, such men
ueed sound sleep- and plenty of it.
When a.boy On -thc farm, we were
told that Napoleon needed only four
hours' sleep, and the old nonsense of
" five hours tor.a. man, six for a wo
man, and seven for a fool," was often
quoted. But the truth is, that Na
poleon was ?nabled, ' in a great meas
ure, to accomplish what he did from
the faculty, of sleeping soundly-of
sleeping when Tie slept and working
when he . worked. We have sat in
one of his favorite traveling-carri
ages, and it was so arranged that he
could lie down at full length, and when
dashing through the country as fast
as eight horses' frequently changed,
could carry him, he slept, soundly,
and when be arrived athis destina
tion was asiresh as if he had risen
from "a'bed bf down. Let; farmers,
and especially farmers' boys, have
plenty [ to eat, nothing to "drink,"
ar.d, ail. the sleep they can take.

DANGER IN DOSING HORSES.
There is. po .doubt that more horses
I are seriously injured by injudicious
. dosing and cruel treatment than in
any other Way. A veterinarian writes
that drenching a horse with fluid
medicines, even if the latter are of
an indifferent nature, like milk and
molasse.'?, is always Very dangerous :
but ir, extremely so, first, wla*n thc
drench consists'-of substance-;-"or in
stance, o?\ or ?rease-to which horses
have a natural aversion; secondly,
when the sick horse is suffering with
?t, disease which is attended with last
breathing:, like pheumonia, colic, &c;
and thirdly, when the fluid, as. is of
ten the case, is poured down-in a
forcible manner : for in such cases it
frequently happens that a part, of the
fluid enters into the larynx and goes
down rho windpipe into the lungs,
causes thon- an inflammation, which
frequently becomes fatal.
A MARYLAND PEACH ORCHARD'.
A M iry land correspondent writes :
" At Chester, ob Kent river, I talk
ed with Mr. Edward Wilkins, proba
bly tim greatest'peach-grower now
living in the United States] who told
me he had 140.000 peach "5pee, and
gave, as an instance ol' the propagar
'liveness, of nurseries, that one man
who "but recently moved from Mary
land to North Carolina, had.planted
Lhree hundred bushels of :i?each seeds
to raise peach plants for bearing pur
poses. Wilkins!., peach farms are
called ' Quaker Neck,' and the next
peach farm in the United States, in
size, is the ' Round Top', farm near
Chesteriown, and planted by a Penn
sylvanian. Mr. Wilkins says that
the largest sum of money ' he ever
realized in one season, by the sale of
peaches, was $33,000."
EIGHT TO SIXTEEN-Lord Shafts
bury recently stated, in a public
meeting ip London, that, from per
sonal observation, he has.ascertained.
that of adult criminals of that city,
nearly all had fallen into a course of
crime between the* ages of eight and
sixteen years ; and that if a young
man lives an'honest life up*to twentv
years of age, there are forty-nine
chances in favor of. one against him,
as to an honorable life hereafter. This
isa fact of singular importance to
fathers and mothers, and shows a
fearful responsibility. Certainly a
parent should secure and exercise ab
solute control over the child at seven
teen. It cannot be a difficult matter
to do this, except' in very rare cases ;
and if that control is not very wisely
and efficiently exercised, it must ,be
the parent's fault; it is owing,fo the
parental neglect or.remissness. Herce

It is mistaken economy to. furbish

past will always tell its 'story. A
neat, pretty calico or lawn tastefully
made is more becoming than tarnish

FLOWERS AS DISINFECTANTS.-Pro
fessor Mantegazzahas discovered that
ozon? is d'ev?loped by certain odorous
flowers. . A'writer in JVafu-rc states
that most of the strong-smell ii ig veg
tabl? essences, such as mint, cloves,
lavender; lemon, and cherry laurel,
develop a very large quantity of ozone
when in contact with atmosperie oxy
gen in light. Flowers destitute of
perfume do not develope it, and gen
erally the amount of ozone seems to
Le in proportion to the strength ol'
the perfume emated. Professor Man
tegazza recommends that in raarshv
districts and in places infested with*
noxious exhalations, strong-smelling
flowers should be planted around the
houses, in order that the ozone emit
ted from thora may exert its powerful
oxizing ?!idue,nco. So pleasant a plan
for making a malarious district salu
brious, only requires to be known to
*be put in practice.-Pomeroy 3 Dem
