The f:wmer or planter iNho reads agricutural papers needs hardly be told that potash is an important element in the coT4position of agri culturl plats, and that they must find it in the soil. If it be not already there, we must put it there, in some form, as a manure. It is deficient in all our pine lands, be low the granite belt, which have been under cultivation for aiy con siderable ;umber of years. In its commercial forms potash is an expensive article-costing in quantity in New York at least six cents a pound. The farmer must look about at home for a cheaper supply. This must be found in the ash of plints, and especially in wood ashes. It would seem that every intelligent farmer must know I that ashes are valuable as a fei--tili zer, but when we see they are wasted on many farms, we conclude their full value is not appreciated, and that it will not be out of place to reiterate here a few plain facts. Professor Storer, as quoted in the Uosten Journal of Clremistry, says: "The analysis of thirteen sam * pies of house ashes, shows a range of from 6 to 10.8 per cent. of pot ash and from 0.4 to 4.6 per cent. * of phosphoric acid. The lowest percentages of potash, 6 to 6.5, were from ashes of a mixture of mraple, oak and white pine woods, collected by a soap boiler in a coun try village. The highest percent ages, 10 to 10.8, were in ashes of mixed beech, birch and maple, in one case, and in those of pitch pine in the other. Eight of t.he samples ranged, as to potash, from 7.4 to 9.5, the average of them, as well .as that of all the thirteen sam * ples, being about 8} per cent. This, it must be borne in mind, is the * proportion of the chemist's potash or oxide of potassium, and corres ponds to about 10} per cent. of the potash of commerce, which is, an impure carbonate and hydrate of potassium. The average of phosphoric acid in dry commercial wood ashes, whether unleached or leached,. is about two per cent., a ieh less quantity than would -be inferred from the composition of the 'pure ash' of many woods. This phosphoric acid is also a val uable fertilizing material in the majority of soils. The balance of the elements contained in the ash~, namely, silica, alumina, iron and manganese oxide, lime, soda, etc., are of little or no account; so that * on what the potash, first, and the phosphoric acid, second, contained, mainly depends the value of wood ashes as a fertilizer. The material is besides a useful dressing for the ground about orchard trees, as it not only improves the soil, but pre vents in a considerable degree the inroads of insects in the roots and bark. It only remains for us to show that there is niot merely a loss to the land affected, but that a direct expenditure of monley is theI result of using ashes in a manner otherwise than we have pointed out. In order to thrive, the farmer must keep his land in producing condition; and, as we have already remarked, to soils which require potash, potash must be returned. Potash is worth about six cents a pound, and phosphoric acid is sold in the New York market for about twelve and a half cents for the same quantity. A barrel of wood ashes is bought by the soap maker for say twenty-two cents, and it weighs one hundred and twenty-five pounds. These ashes contain on an k,,rj~ n1t.r..~Au c~brviz.v~ I hese suLstances is 1 cnts, a1n. :i ef.re, a bharuel of ashcs is in = :rit.sicaiv v. uith as a fertiizer ie.arlv five times the amount for r Vhich it can be sold to soap man- - acturer." 0 It shou'l be added that the q a' eaves of treCes, andt especially of e hC hrd wooded trees, like the ak, are exceedingly rich in pota-h, 11ud si;ould, therefoie, be usel wherever they are handy as bed ing for animals, in composts, or piled directlv to the land and irned under. - - -- --+ -t A SiNi> Ecu TEST,.-IR is made of a stiff piec. of paper. (dark color preferre I,) five inches c long, six inches wide at one end and four and onie-quarter at the other. This is rolled and joined together with a lap of h1lf an inch, by either paste or needle or thread. t With this simpie instrument the 1 eggs can be examined at any tine of day and under any ordinary light. It is not necessary to have a very strong light, as is required by other methods. We regard it as much the best article for the purpose we have yet seen. Its use is like a telescope-apply the" smaller end to the eye,. and hold the egg at or in the larger. A perfecty fresh egg, examined by the tester, will appear clear and light; a stale egg opaque and dark. An egg that has been set on for three days, if fertile, should show a small dark spot on one side near the large end; at five days the spot should be as large as a five cent nickle, quite dark at the cent tre, and shading off lighter to wards the edges. If, after being five days under heat, the egg is t still clear, it may be set aside as not fertile. The London Horse-Book says that all horses must not be fed in the same proportion, without regard to their ages, their constitution, and their work ; because the impropriety of such practice is self-evident. Yet is conk stantly done, and is the ba.sis of dis ease of every kind. Never use bad hay on account of the cheapness, for there is no proper nourishment in it. Damaged corn is exceedingly in jurious, becau.se it brings on inflami mationi of the -bowels and skin dis eases. Chaff is better for old horses than hay. because they een chew and aiest it better. When a horse is worked hard, its fod should be chiefly oats; if not worked hard, its food should chiefly be hay, because oats contain more nourishment and flesh-making mate rial than any other food ; hay not so much. Rack feeding is wasteful. The bet ter plan is to feed with cho'pped hay, from a manger, because the food is not1 then thrown out, and is more easily chewed and digested. Sprinkle the hay with water that has salt dissolved in it, because it is pleasant to the animal's taste, and more easily digested. A teaspoonful of salt in a bucket of water is suffi eent... How TO HAVE GOOD EGGS.-There is a vast difference in the -flavor of eggs. Hens fed on clean', sound grain a.nd kept on a clean grass run, give ' much finer flavored eggs than hens that have access to the stable and maure heaps, and eat all kinds of1 lthy food. Hens feeding on fish and nions, flavor their eggs accordingly, the same as cows eating onions or1 cabbage, or drinking offensive water, impart a bad taste to the milk and ' butter. The richer the food the higher the color of the eggs. Wheat and corn give eggs the best color, and while feedinig on buckwheat makes them colorless, rendering them unfit for some confectionery purposes. I Small farms make near neigh bors ; they make good roads; theyI make plenty of good schools and churches; there is more mnoney nade ir, proportion to the labor; less labor is wanted ; everything is kept neat; less wages have to be paida for help ; less time is wasted; more s raised to the acre ; besides, it isr tilled beter; there is no watchina of hired help; the mind is not kept.I in a worry, and stew, a fret all the time.

Having been engaged for twenty years in the Guano Trade with eminent success, I deemed it advisable to introduce Fertilizers under my own name anda guarantee. I have made arrangements to have prepared -a Guano unider my inspectioni and control, called ROBSON'S COTTON AND CORN FERTILiZER. This Guano is of the high est standard. It contains, aninong other valuable ingredients, three per cent of Am monia, one and a half per cent. of Potash, and fourteen per cent. of Available Phos phate. I also have prepaired for me a COMPOUND ACID PHOSPHATE of the highest standard. These Fertilizers are compounded of the purest materials, and are manipulated and tested under the su pervision of Dr. St. J. Ravenel, cf this city, whose name gives a warrant for their high character and adaptation for our soil. I offer these Fertilizers to Planters on the. following favorable terms: ROBSON'S COTTON AND CORN FER TILIZER, Cash, $44 per ton ; on time, $50. ROBSON'S COMPOUND ACID PHOS PUATE, Cash, $28 per ton ; on time, $33. Planters ordering immediately will be al lowed to the first of A pril to, decide which they prefer, cash or time. An order for a car load of eight tons will-be sent free of drayage ; but for a less amnount 81 per tan will be che.rged. On orders for large lots from Grangers or dealers, a liberal discount will be allowed. I take this occasion to return may thanks to those who have so largely patronized the Fertilizers hitherto offered by me, and in soliciting their favorable attention to an other, I pledge my best efforts to meet a continuance of confidence by keeping the h:ghest standard of Fertilizers adapted to otton and corn.
