To test the value of green crop turned under, as a manure, an es periment was made during the paE planting season, on four and a hal acres of ltnd on Charleston Neel It proved so successful and suggeE tive, that a detailed account of I should be brought to the attentio of farmers generally, particularly a the materials employed and th manner of working the crop, ar within the reach of all. SThis experiment in land improv< ment has also apparently solve an interesting agricultural problen which has hitherto perplexed bot the chemist and the practical fai mer, namely, to discover a chea and abundant supply of nitroge: for the use of our cereal and textil crops. If the plan herein recommende should prove after further trial, t be as successful in other hands a it has been in those of the writei an important ste-p forward has bee: made in agriculture, and the cost c production will be very much lesser ed thereby, and the certainty c making a crop vastly increased. We know by experience that th ash element of plant food, thati to say, the potash, lime, and phos phates are either sufficiently abut dant in most soils or can if needed be readily supplied by artificia means at small outlay, and wit] comparatively little labor ; but th nitrogen which all plants require and without which they canno thrive, must be sought for in the waste of animal organizations. Hence it is the most expensive ma terial which enters into the compo sition of our manures. To obtail it, the farmer has to resort to th troublesome and expensive proces of soiling cattle and the collectioi and composting of their manure and ship loads of guano, fish scraps and dried flesh are yearly importe< to supply the demand. Therefore the great desideratum for the agr: culturist, is to discover some cheaj mode of obtaining this importan agent, and an economical metho< of distributing it when found. The worn out wheat fields of Vir ginia are being rapidly renovated b: the systematic cultivation. of thi grasses, and particularly clover whic] turned under with lime and phosphate; added, has worked like a charm upoi old fields long abandoned as worthless P>ut clover will not grow readily unde the burning suns and in the ligh sandy soil of the cotton States, and substitute has been dilligently sough for. The soil o' the four and a half acre upon which the experiment alluded t< was tried, is a light and sandy loam The higher portions of the field ar dry but a part slopes gradually to salt lead, and being low and wet, ha been underdrained with wooden boxes on the ordinary and well known plan For three years past a crop of cor: has been taken from the field, and n manure applied; except dressings c Atlantic Company Phosphate. No one of these crops has been in an; way jemarkable. It had been observ ed that, growing in this field, durin; the winter month, was a heavy crop o the native Vetch, of which there ar< two species, one bearing a large po< and pe2, the other smaller, and seeding in a different way. In other respects the plants are quite similar in thei: appearances and habits,whieh are pecn liar. The seed germinates and spring into life in October, at a season whei the weeds and grasses of summer be gin to decay. The vines push rapidl; to maturity during the winter months seeding in MIarch. As soon as ripe the seed is shed, thus spontaneousl; replanting the ground upon which i grew, before the ploughing, and pre paration for the planter's crops ar commenced. Animals of all sort ar< remarkably fond of Vetch vines as for age, either in the green state or dried and feed greedily upon them, thu proving their nutritive qualities. The applicability therefore of thi 1~ -~ ~ 1~.1 proach to clover that we can find, and in this experiment has proved itself a valuable agent in furnishing to a corn crop sufficient nitrogen to pro duce an average of forty five bushels of corn to the acre. About the first of May (1874) this growth of Vetch vines was simply list ed with the hc into the corn alleys of the previous year, but before listing, ane hundred pounds per acre of agri cultural lime was dusted over the vines, and after listing four hundred and fifty pounds of Atlantic Fertilizer, was scattered on the lst, and the land bedded with the plough; excepting a -,strip of eleven rows, upon which no phosphatic or nitrogenized manure of any kind was put, but only lime ati the rate of (1700) seventeen hundred pounds to the acre. The corn was planted about May 15th, twenty inch es apart on the bed, and kept clean with cultivation, and bedded with the plough when shooting. In comparing s the cleven rows planted without fer tilizers, but with lime alone, with the t balance of the field, which had receiv ed a liberal dressing of Atlantic Com pany Fertilizer, no perceptible differ ence could be detected, proving that the vege?ctable matter furnishe- by the t decomposition of the Vetch vines con tained a sufficient supply of nitrogen s for the sustenance of the corn crop e growing on the land, and the grain e produced equalled in every particular, both as to quantity and quality, that which was taken from the other part d of the field which had received liberal dressings of a highly concentrated ammoniacal manure. The lesson, therefore, which this ex periment appears to me to teach, is, a that the true art of land improvement consists in planting green crops for the supply of the nitrogen, and using commercial lime and phospates for fur nishing the ash elements. A system D atic application of this principle will s at small cost reclaim many of the , waste places, and bring back prosperi a ty to the impoverished farmers of our f State. He who can reap forty-five bushels If of corn to the acre will want for little else. Corn and meat in abundance, will esecure labor at all times, and the field which has been made rich enough to smake the corn will certainly the next year produce a paying crop of cotton. -Similar experiments to the above, with 'otherkinds of green crops, have recently 1 been attracting much attention among 2thinking agriculturalists and a similar Ssuccess has in most cases crowned their ,efforts.-A.

Do not leave implimnents scatter ed over the farm, exposed to snow, rain and heat. 14. Repair tools and buildings at a .proper time, and do not suffer subse - quent threefold expenditure of time >and money. 5. Use money judiciously, and do not attend auction sales to purchase all kinds of trumpery because it is cheap. 6. See that fences are well repaired, and cattle not grazing in the meadows, Jgrain fields or orchards. 7. Do not refuse correct experi ments, in a small way, of many new 'things. 8. Plant fruit trees well, care for Sthem, and get good crops. 9. Practice economy by giving stock shelter during the winter ; also good food, taking out all that is un sound, half rotten, or mouldy. :10. Do not heep tribes of dogs and e..s around the premises who eat -more in a month than they are worth Sall their life-time. sOYsTER Sotr, No 1.-Take two quarts of oysters, and drain them with a fork from their liquor ; wash them in one water to free them of grit. Take two thin slices of the lean of ham, tand cut into small pieces; some pars ley, thyme, and onion tied in a bunch as thick as your thumb; strain the ?oyster liquor; put all in together, with pepper and salt. When almost done, add a lump of butter as big as an egg, rolled in flour, with a gill of good cream. Set one quart of water on the stove; -put into it a piece of resin the size of a walnut. The heating of the water will add a peculiar property to the at m iosphere of the room, which will give great relief to persons troubled with a cough. The same piece of resin will do for several weeks. t To prevent flies from injuring pie - ture-frames, boil two or three onions in a a pint of water; then with a gilding a brush apply to your frames, and the - flies will not light on the article so , washed. This may be used without ap sprehension, as it will not do the least harm to the frame. - . TT - r... r,-. m~i.. Columbia Jo R. & W. G. COLUME Are now opening the large stock of READY-MAD.
