Perhaps the time will never come, when we can dispense entire ly with the use of commercial fer tilizers. In Europe and in the Northern States, where the keep ing of stock and making of barn yard manure have, from time imme morial, been regarded as the road to successful farming, the use of commercial fertilizers is rapidly and steadily on the increase. The South on the other hand is wisely retrenching in this direction, by utilizing materials on the farm, which mixed with cheap commer cial fertilizers, render them equal in value to the most costly. We refer to composts of cotton seed and acid phosphate, which cost very little more than half as much as ammoniated phosphates of the same agricultural value. As another step in the same direction, we suggest that composts of cotton seed and ashes may be made, to demise still farther the purchasing of materials obtainable only beyond the limits of the farm. These composts should be made exactly like those with acid phosphate, adding to eight bushels of green cotton seed the same amount of unleached ashes-mix ing the two thoroughly-wetting and trampling them well, that they may rot slowly and steadily. Rot ten cotton seed and decomposed. stable manure would be unsuitable for such compost-it wouki be best to use nothing but gre.en seed and ashes. The quantities above named would be a moderate manuring for one acre of cotton-about equal to that amount of phosphate compost which contains one hund.ed pounds of acid phosphate. If all the ashes on a farm are carefully husbanded during the whole year, enough can be secured to manure qute a number of acres of land. We would suggest also a bone compost as another home fertilizer. Let all the bones within reach be gathered up, and a pile of alternate layers of wood and bones be made and fired. When large quantities are to be burned it is best to begin with a moderate sized pile, not more than five or six feet square, and three or four feet high, and as it burns down throw on more bones and wood untir~ all the bones are burned. If too great heat is gen erated and the air is excluded (as it will be in the centre of a large pile) a part of the phosphate of the bones will be vaporized, driven off and lost. After burning, the bones can be readily pulverized or bro ken in small pieces ready for comn posting. In this compost cotton seed alone and bone may be used, or stable manure in conjuciion with the cotton seed. If cotton seed alone are used, mix intimately with eight bushels of seed, one hundred and fifty pounds of bones, wet the mixture thoroughly and tramp well to insure moderate, steady putre factive fermentation. If desired, use four bushels of seed and four of stable manure in place of eight of seed, and proceed in the same manner as above. It is all impor tant that the mass should be thor oughly wet throughou', as~ the solu bility of the bones depends upon the "presence of substances which can only be generated by the rot ting of the seed or manure. This compnost should be made at least two to three months before plaat ing time. Six months would be better still. The quantities named above will manure, moderately, one acre of land. (iA RRoTs INST EA D oF .LGG s.--An exchange says :It is not generally known that boiled carrots, when properly prepared. formr av excel lent substitute f.>r eggs in1 pud dig.

On the J)inciple of economy this fact is worthy of the pr.udent housewife's attenotio levn.esore s tDll towt beleve the stes omte n m.wit - That the eye of the FANcY FARMERS.-The Chicago' Times has a few truthful paragraphs describing fancy farmers, which read as follows: No class of men have been ridi culed so much, and none have done so much good, as those who are de nominated fancy farmers. They have been, in all times and coun tries, the benefactors of the men is n who have treated them with de- wil rision. They have been to farmers what inventors have been to manu- J. facturers. They have experimented for the good of the world, while others have simply worked for their own good. They tested the ories, while others have raised crops for market. They have given a dignity and glory to the occu pation of farming it never had before. Fancy farmers have changed the wild boar into the Suffolk and Berkshire ; the w'ld bull of Britain into the short horn; the mountain sheep, with its lean body and hair fleece, into the Southdown and the Merino. They brought up the milk of cows from pints to gallons. They have lengthened the sirloin of the bullock, deepened the udder of the cow, enlarged the ham of the hog, given strength to the shoulder of the ox, rendered finer the wool of the sheep, added fleet ness to the speed of the horse, and made beautiful every animal that is kept in the service of man. They have improved and hastened the development of all domestic ani mals, till they hardly resemble the creatures from which they sprang. Fancy farmers introduced irri gation and under-draining, grind ing and cooking food for stock. M They brought guano from Peru, bi and nitrate of soda from Chili. . They introduced and domesticated all the plants we have of foreign . - origin. They brought out the theory of rotation of crops as a nat ural means of keeping up and in creasing the fertility of the soil. They first ground up gypsum and bones, and treated the latter with acid to make manures of a peculiar value. They first analyzed soils, as a means of determining what was wanted to increase their fertility. They in troduced the most improved rmeth ods of raising and distributing water. Fancy farmers, or fancy horticul turists, have given us all our varieties of fruits, vegetables and fowers. A fancy -farmer in Ver mont, a few years ago, originated the Early Rose potato, which added millions of dollars to the wealth of our country, and proved, to be a most important accession in every part of the world where it was in- Ar troduced. Another of these fancy a men originated the Wilson straw- w. berry, and another, the. Concord H( grape. It was a fancy farmer brought the Osage orange from Texas to the Northern States. Among the men in this country who were classed as fancy farmers .. at an early day, were Washington, Jefferson, Franklin and Livingeton. The first introduced mules; the~ second, the cultivation of improved rice; the third, the use of land plaster, and the fourth, the raising ( of lucerne. More than any men of their time did they add to the wealth of the country. After them came another race of fancy far mers, who introduced Arabian horses, Spanish sheep, and the im proved breeds of English cattle and swine. These fancy farmers added immensely to the wealth of the i practical farmers of the country. *CHIOCoLATE MARBLE CAK.-On e cup of' butter, two cups of sugar, one cup of sweet milk, three cups of flour., whites of five eggs, one heaping teaspoonful of baking N powder. Work the butter and sugar to a cream, add the milk, Cl the whites of the eggs, beaten to a stiff frotu ; then the flour with LA the baking powder mixed thor- su o'ghly through it. Take one tea- the cupful of batter and stir into it to one large spoonful of grated choco- C late, wet with a little milk. Fil g the baking pan about one inch deep s with the white mixture ; then drop mn in two or thr~ee places a spoonful of the chocolate bater, then a laer- of the white; continue this titi until the mixture is all used. Bake in a modierate oven. Pt Warx pumpkins are fed to milk cows, they should be split open and the seeds i emoved. The seeds 3 are diuretic in their effect, acting strongly upon the kidneys, and therefore reduce the quantity of milk. It is worth t he trouble to remove the seeds whenever pump- - kins are fed to stock, as anything that irritates the kidneys, or ex cites them to action unnecessarily,P Itends to weaken those organs. The seeds are of no value to the cows, medicinally, as either saltpetre or sweet spirits of nitre, is a much Ibetter and more certain diuretic to admiister when one is needed. WE*Tj have, in answer to our in quiry as to the most approved meth od of e.leansin~g butter pails, re- 1 ceive the following: First, wash si the pails, removing all remaining id particles of butter. Then throw into each pail one tablespoonul of 'ommon baking soda, upon which pour a quart of boiling water : cover closely until quite cool: rinse s with clear water, and the tub or pail is ready for use.
