" P&troas <tf Harbaii?ry*'* ?jj
Thia is the "nama of -a new agrie ul
tuml organization, secret i ni ts char
acter, but great good to the farming
interest is promised to be achieved
through it? agency. Coi D. Wyatt
Aiken, in a letter to the Abbeville
./Vaia d Vanner', irrites thus in refer
ence to thia new. oiganizatiun ;
" Your readers have, at one time
oi' another, seen the announcement
that the "Patrons of Husbandry"j
were aa organization, banded together
by mystic ties for the benefit of ail
parties directly interested in the-(
tanse of agricaltare".; I?uriu? a recent
?isit to the G?ty of Washington, I
took occasion to investigate thia, ?ub
j]oct carefully, and have no hesitation
m asserting tba*," aa organ?z?d, it can - j
bat be of incalculable advantage to
the planting interest of our'country,
North, South? 'Bast ami West.
Having been proffered, a rasponei- j
ble position in toe Order, I accepted.
it solely upon ' the grounds that it]
would be purely agricultural. Ex
perience has proven to os its virtues,
and while I would not advise an or
ganis?t i on (a Grange) of this sort in
any community, wmpry. Upon the
ground of curiosity, I do not nesitate
io advise our planters and.fanners to
zmite and form Granges everywhere,
I guaran tee to them that just so soon,
if ever, that I observe "ny politics,
sectarianism, or 'other o^moralizihg
influence obtruding itself into ' the
Order, either through the National
or any State Grange, I will expose
the imposition, and protect my fellow
planters frorn injury or Toss
" You will owerve, by the enclosed
constitution, that nine persons may
organize a Grange. Thirty persons,
is the maximum number, ten of whom
moat be females, that mar do the
name. It is better to haye tho larger
number at first,'because the initiation
fee for males in the.outset is only
three dollars, and for females fifty,
?ats ; whereas, five ao??ars for raa?es*
and two dollars ibr females MT'th*
initiation fee to join an organized
Grange.
" lam prepared to discuss.the mer
its of thia Ord or before the public ?
ind trill cheerfully go to any portion
of our Obrniy.'orindeed of the State,
where as. many as thirty persons d*
eiring to organize a Grange may wish
to be informed on the subject. Apart
from the social feature of the Order,
our people will be -astonished to learn
the practical advantage accruing from
ilia many of the Northern States,
and in more than one of the Sou them.
A careful reading of the constitution
will disabuse the mind of the central i -
zation suggested by the name " Na
tional Grange," wborice emanate the
Controlling laws of the Order ; and
convince every sceptic, who believes
in them there is strength, that a 'Na
tional Head is as necessary for the
successful working of the "Patrons:
" of Husbandry," as it ia for the vital
existence of genuine Republicanism.
Very truly,
D. WYATT AIKEN.
HAY MORE VALUABLE THAN COT
TON.-Under.the above heading, the
Columbus (Ga.) Sun discusses the
subject, and says :
Planters ruin themselves hy raising
cotton, and borrow money at a tre
mendous per centags to nay the West
for corn and hay, bound with blocks
of Western wocp, when gras* ia go
ing to watte in the abundant fields,
and they could cultivate abuudance
of better grain than they have pur
chased *nd save the transportation
of wood! Did planters ever think
the hay crop was more valuable than
that of cotton ? The figures prove
it. The total value of the cotton
crop for 1870 in the United States,
according to the figures of the Agri
cultural Bureau, amounted to $286,
000,000. 2be total value of the hay
crop $339,000,000, showing the value
of the latter exceeded the former
$?3^000,000. In Georgia the hay
'crop that year was estimated at $1,
28cUfiO, while that of New York was
$77,000.000. Soa'iherners can never
be independent until they learn to
plant 'less, and farm more. Their
own snrCxdal policy has made the
country poorer than in 1865. Will i
1872 bo but a. mere repetition of ]
former years and be catalogued among
thei failures f? Ve hope not.
.--:
SHEEP AND CLOVES.-These we be
lieve -to be the two great agencies that
are to revolutionize Southern agricul
ture, and the ene is the complement
of the other. Sheep wll enable us
to grow clover, claver will help us to
keep our sheep in fine condition, and.
bow together will work something
almost like a miracle on our worn ou
plantations. But whnt about- the
dogs and the freedmen? we are a#ked
by those who hare no faith in either
clover or sheep. We hive lately put
this question te several ' extensive
vootgrowers in Abbeville county,
and the reply is, that with proper j
management t?ere is little er na dan
ger m lcm from either mutton-loving
n-jgrocs or vicious d >tr . The sheejt
?re penned at night, ;:nJ during the
day they run in their rast tires with
out being disturbed by any Ching. De
pend opon it, for tn a b?rge portion ot
our middle and upp-r country, sheep
and clever aro the magic ' word? of |
tbenew era, of South*T agriculture.
Bural Carolin noi".
Young men, don't crowd the cities
and. towns. The country imparta
health, tone, and mord, physical a id
intellectual vigor. America's gr??t
es' sod best men have sprung fr<>m
the-fresh virgin soil of thc country.
Don't shirk hard labor. Stick -to the
* farm, for ?here is nr>st happiness and
profit. Cities are overdone with hale*
and hearty young men-who say they
are trying W rise in the world, but
wbo-make ?ad nwt* ken when they
leave the " old man" to struggle on
al'?ne, and posh themselves into the
dense croiydp which. throng; the pro
fessions and the walks of business.
ASHES FOU SWEET POTATOES.-A
correspondent in the " Southern Cul
tivator" says: ?. I notice the question
asked,. which.is the best fertilizer or
jamure for sweet potatoes ? From
the" experience Tha-ve," had in manu
ring the ?Mnfltmj I must say that
rotted ashes, when properly put on,
bas precedence over aU others I have
had any experience with. 'The plan
thai I adopted was to open a deep
furrow with scooter pldw, and
put in a plentv of ashes. Bed1
on tbs asnee, an-d" a sure crop may'be
realized on the ' poorest soil. Cow-]
be. abandoned, provided ashes can be
had. I experimented on as poor soil
as ?" tad, and"-he result was as fine a
crop, of,potatoes' as Iey>r^sa^.qn any
kind of land. Rotted' whee is good
for-cotton ah*v and almost any-land,
' I am dohvinced-there i '
ls not? batter fertilizer-made on
plantation iban rotted ash es. _ So e'
one will Snd ii greatly to Wa int?
te taite special care of it." '.

You mar drink to your maudlin ki:
Kine Cotton, decrepit and lorn
But Che Sunniest d ra ugh t
That ever was quaffed
We'll tip to the Yeoman-Corn.
The King,- he ia feeble and old,
Eis looks are dishevelled and torn
But a sturdier hold
And henchmen bold
Has the hardy Yeoman-Corn.
To Corn with his silken heard,
And bia lances keen ?nd strong:
With his tasseled plume,
He comes, make room !
Let the green ranks file along. .
Along by the healthful streams
Along by the sloping hills;*
By the mountain: chains,
. By the level plains j
. Ti? his race the whole world *2ils.
Oh, strong and. true ac? brave !
May it long our ail 1 s adorn !
' Tho' the sweat may lave,
Still ?he heart is brave,
That tolls for the Yeoman-Corn.
You may drink to old Cotton, the Ki
The weary, the dreary old Lear!.
But his brow is pale
And your song is a wail, .
Aiufyonr bumper is soiled with at
Your wine has loaf its taste,
And yanr k tng's'white locks are sh?
So, in one* rich sluice
Of h' s wealthy juice,
W?'ll ttp to the Yeoman-Corn.
On? Suggestion.
It ia very ranch the habit of J
vinci*] editors, when they have nc
?hg else to write about, to d?vbf
column or two to givihg gratuit
advice to the farmers. We h
never indulged in this weakness
two reasons; first; because we w
satisfied that the farmers knew tl
own business better than we did. i
secondly, because w,e knew* tl
.would db their own way no .mat
how mnch.advic?. we might see lil
wa*te\ipoo them.
Itt view, however, of the num
of "wagons that we dally see haul
corn from ? this place ? to .all |>art>
the c?u|ty. we will- venture *to I??
ocne: suggestion, which, if .earried o
wp:tld, we believe, prevent the nee
si ty of wkijesnt^hesame urhpleasi
sight another s?asbn.
Just at this time everybodv is i
gaged in planting cotton. The b
Lina on the plantation has been
lected for that purpose; and the nu
ber of acres to be given up to t
so-call sd Ki rig has been care fully c
eula te i and laid oft. What west
gast now is, that every farmer in t
coon[ty shall take ihrre acres of i
beet land set aparUfor cotton for ea
plow that .he runs, and plant it
corn instead of cotton.. It mig
[seem at first that this -would m ak*
'Very small difference in the result
the crop;" but a little calcularle
based upon reliable figures, will eh?
.that the increased production of cn
resulting from this change would
jsu*rEcieht to supply every horse ai
[iqule in the county with twenty biu
els, which would gp very far towar
feeding them for the next year. A
.cording*to the pub-fished tax ret ur
of 1870 there ar* in' Chester Couu
1.692 horse?, and 2,190 rau'es-tot
3,8S2. We wiri suppose that of tl
[number 3,600 are regularly employ<
inn farms. If our suggestion we
adopted 10,500 acres would be &dd<
?to "he area planted in corn. Tl
^ui'po-'iti 'n being that it is-the b<
jUnd < n the plantation where tj
c'iange of ba-e from, cotton to corn
nv.de. it is not too high an estima
jto place, the y iel. I of these acres i
an average of eight bushels. Tl
liicre.u-ed yield . f ?orn in the count
wou J, therefore, be 84,000 bushels
' r more than twenty bushels for ever
muli* and horse that we h* ve.
'I bis, corn at $1.5.0 per bushel woul
be w- rth $126,000. The 10,500 acr.
of-land wonld probably yield 2",5C
bales of cotton, which, at fifteen cen1
ber pound, would be Worth $150,00(
The seeming difference rn favor c
the cultivation of cotton would I
$24,000. . But when we take int
consideration the - damage done t
stock by hauling heavy loads ovc
oor rongh roads, hud the time lo;
from farm work in hauling the cor
from the railroad to the farm?, it mus
be apparent to any reflectmg min
^hat the loss thus ineurred more tba
cotin'- rbalances the 'apparent diffei
ence in favor of-the cotton culture.

The greatly advantageous feature o? the Brooklyn in endorsing the Sur
render Values upon its Policies, in Dollars and Cents, for ten consecutive
years, has met wi'h unqualified, pnfise from the most celebrated American
Actuaries, as al.?-o from the Press. East, North and Sou'h. v.
The Hon. Elizur Wright, who is -admitted to be the greatest Insurance
Mathematician and Actuary in America, congratulating The Brooklyn
upon this new and distinctive feature, says, among other, things, "I am
particularly pleased by your departure in the right direction from the
ordinary method of computing the Surrender Values." "Ons of the great>
est. drawbacks to the popularity of Life Insurance, has been the: dasap
pointnunt ?'.nd dissatisfaction of retiring Policy holders, at the smallness
of -thc Surrender value paid," &c. "All this would have been prevented
by a distinct statement on the Folia/, m advance, of the sum to be paid."
.This statement, it will be seen, The Brooklyn ..makes in dollars and
cents, so that there ?-an be no mistake.
Head What Southern Papers Say of 'Hi's Feat ire :
The Sentinel, (Raleigh, North Carolina:) Jan. 27. 1809.-"1h\& great
feature of. cash surrender values is un improvement that signalizes the era
in Lifo Insurance."
'. Sun, (Columbus, Gcwgia.)-"There is no better Company, in the land ;
a comparison with other corporations of a similar chat acter, willconvince
all pf the superior safely in taking risks with Thc Brooklyn Life."
Tispatch, (St. louis, Mo..') Jan 7. 1S69.-" A Poli.;/ in Thc Brooklyn
Life is thus worth so much in ready moncyi Tl.is is the only Jjifc Com
pany in the country thal has carticd this excellent feature (of endorsing
the cash surrender values in dollars raid cents.) into its business.?:.". "Pol
icy holders being doubly assured, thc .
popular."
