It is surprising to hear cotton planters jomplain of the want of labor, and its unreliable character vhen obtained, when at the same time they are using more labor in proportion to the number of pro d,4Qive,ares than any other peo ple iu Ohristendom. I recollect before the war to have heard a friend in South Carolina regret that he could not put his own son on a plantation which he owned, be cause he coald give him only twen ty hands. At the same time there were wen- at the North, and in Eu rope with lands no better than his, who were making handsome in comes by the employment of three cr four hands. The average number of hands in the best cultivated countries in Eu rope is rarely more than two to one hundred acres. Of course at har : est time, a larger number is em ployed; but the regular steady 7 force all the year round is not more th?at two. Two years since, it was the privi lege of the writer to visit the farm of Capt. M. S. Cockrill, near Nash vlT-. His farm consists of one thousand two hundred acres, as -- sessed at forty dollars per acre. Ris regular- force on this farm, nearly eveg acre of which was productive, was - three hands. Since the war, he had sold forty thousand dollars worth of produce, ?almost wholly live stock-twenty -thousand-dollars of which he had put in permanent improvements, as buildings, etc. Eight hundred acres --were in grass. A small proportion ~ -f arable land was held by tenants. -No outside capital was used. The,~ following facts, extracted from the transactions of the New York State Agricultural Society, are interesting and instructive. A premium had been offered for the best conducted farm. The state -ments of the competitors were giv Ven under oath. The farms were also examined by a committee. J. V. Groves' farm consisted of two hundred and thirty-four acres of upland, thirty-seven and a half a cres in woods. Gross sales, $6, _752.89. Besides his own services, sad that of a son and daughter (in the dairy), he paid out for labor, $526.15. 3. Westfall's farm consisted of two hundred and two acres, thirty -seven of which are in woods and ioads .'ross sales, $4,978.14. Paid. for labor, including his own. $66&.37. W. M. Holmes' farm consisted of one hundred and eighty-five acres, fourteen acres wood, and six acres waste. Gross sales, $6,720.80. J'aid for labor, $502,36. Ls. D. Glift's farm consisted of one hundred and sixty acres. Gross sales, $6,344.08. Paid for baor $495. Wi cotton planters ponder these instace. and consider the number of acres, gross sales, and amount 6fwages paid ? C. W. HOWARD, in the Rural Carolinian for October. Is THE8SOUTH A GOOD FRUIT COUN Tray.-If the question is intended to mean a country abounding in good fruits, we must sadly answer, uo. Nothing astonishes the stranger more when traveling in the South, or on irst settling here, than the scarcity of' good fruits; and the impression pro duced by,the circumstance, that the South is not a good country for frug, is confirmed by our people themselves,I and especially by the farmers, who,~ with a few exceptions, of course will tell him that beyond seedling peaches, Chickasaw plums, and Seuppernong grapes, fruits don't do well here. The few who have understandingly tried the experiment of raising other and superior fruits, however, know better. We have shown again and again in these pages'and elsewhere, and demon strated in the field, that the South is: a on o 'the best of all fruit countries, nd SURFACE MANURING AND SEED _NG To GRASS.-A skillful and ;uccessful farmer in New York nakes the following statement in -he Rural Home: 1. We are compelled to wait un ijl quite late before sowinr to avoid Lhe insects, and if our sowing is o'lowed by a season of drouth, 'he wheat will receive greater ben fits from surface manurifg., as it 'as the tOldency to keep the grouid moist, and produce a rapid .ruwtl. If the spring is very dry, after much freezing and thawing, the wheat will receive more benefit from the surface manure, branching out more freely. Such was the case last spring. 2. Nearly all of the cereals have brace roots, as may be illustrated by Indian corn, and when the soil is fertile enough at the surface, the main stalks will branch out, or stool, which is not true to the same cx tent when the manure is plowed under deep. If wt plow the ma nure under to the depth of from six to ten inches. I am confident we shall not obtain all the advan tages possible from manure in an unfavorable season. 3. It is my practice to re-seed with the wheat crop, and I have always secured a good catch with surface manuring. I consider a good catch of the utmost impor tance, as a failure interferes with the rotation. It is difficult for me to say which I would prefer to lose, the grain crop or the catch of grass, if compelled to lose either. SOUND IDEAS ON FARMING. The following views on farming were thrown out by Mr. Greeley in his speech at Baltimore, and they so entirely cover the ground of successful culture that we give them a.place for the benefit of our readers: 1. That the area under cultiva tion should be within the limit-i of the capital and labor employed; or, in other words, that on inmpov erished soils no one should cultivate more land than he can enrich with manure and fertilizers, be it one acre or twenty. 2. That there should be a law compelling every man to prevent his stock from depredating on his neighbor's fields. 3. That green~ soil is more econ omical than loose pasturage. 4. That deep tillage.is essential to good farming. 5. That the muck heap is the farmer's bank, and that everything should be added to it that will en large it, and increase at the same time its fertilizing properties. 6. That no farmer or planter should depend upon one staple alone, but should seek to secure himself against serious loss in bad seasons by diversity of products. THE GRANGE AS A SOCIAL IN sTrrvToN.-Some of the Western papers are discussing the propriety and desirableness of dancing in the Grange. This is not an obligatory part of the ceremonial and being objected to on moral or religious grounds by many, is very generally omitted here, in deference to those who have conscientious scruples in regard to it. A Minnesota Patron oIgeets to it and all amusements in the Grange on the ground that we have no time at our meetings, except for work. This is gen erally true of our regular meetings, but we should have extra meetings in which there should be time and roomn for social intercourse. recrea tion and relaxation. The life of the farmer and of the farmer's fami ly is sufficiently hard and humdrum, at best, and the Grange should help, and will help, to light en itsj burdens and make it more attrac tive.-Rural Carolinian. T HE CULTIVATION OF HORSE-RAn IsH.-There is nothing~ easier to culti vate than Horse-Radish, and it should be found in every garden. The elaborate instructions dlrawn out which we have seen in some journals, is all bosh, or at least only tends to deter people from raising it. All there is to dlo is to dig up a bed full spade deep, in a rather low, moist place; manure heavily as for any other garden crop. Slice a radish I from the crown--two or three inches down, each of course with a piece of the crown, however small, plant two inches below the surface, and it will come. For family use a bed ten feet square will furnish enough all the time for a generation, without farther trouble or replanting. This is all.-Ed. German tonTlgah own TolBgrEph. LsI Ls.
