Lime is applied to the soil in two forms, namely-in that of car bonate or mild lime, and as caustic or quick lime. Lime before burnt exists in a state of carbonate. When burnt, the carbonic acid which it contains is driven off, and then it becomes caustic or quick lime, which again, when exposed to the air, absorbs the carbonic acid gas anew, to a certain extent, and in this state becomes carbonate or mild lime. Lime causes stiff soils to become more friable, and it imparts firmness to loose lands. It decomposes the acid compounds existing in the soil; and in this manner forms new and valuable compounds out of sub stances which would otherwise be hurtful to vegetation. ~Lime forms a considerable portion of the organic matter of vegetables; its addition to the soil, therefore, supplies this very necessary portion of the food of plants. Its effects arise from its avidity for combination. It searches out free acids, and in stantly closes with them. Sulphuric, phosphoric, silic, nitric, humic and carbonic acids-all these it makes known by se.rving upon them and becoming their base, thus dis integrating as it were and recon structing the elements of the soil, and exciting to new action the sluggards of nature wherever they are lurking. Does a latent atom of organic matter stand inert for one instant, it is at it forthwith. There are some who foolishly think that lime is good while it is quick. True the decomposition of vegretable or animal substances is greatly hastened. When quick lime is applied it does speedily de compose animal or vegetable mat ter. Carbonate of lime or air slack ened lime does also produce the same effects only in a slower degree, and its action is not so immediately apparent as that of quick or caustic lime. Lime may be applied at different periods in the rotation. It may be spread on grass land previous to the same being broken up for cropping. It may also be laid on in the -course of preparing the land for green crops, or after their removal, or previous to plow ing for succeeding crops; When plowed in, it ought to be by a shal low furrow. Lime is an invaluable material for top-dressing pastures which require renovation. The pro per qantity of lime to be used de pends on the nature of the soil. Strong clay lands require an allow ance which would ruin lighter soils, and those soils to which lime is ap plied for the first time, will require more than they will do at an after period. In general the quantities given are from 200 to 300 bushels per statute acre for heavy clays, and f>r medium soils from 120 to 180 bushels per statute acre, and from 70 to 80 bushels per statute acre for very light and moory soils.-Pardous' Pracical Farmer. KIcKING C OWS.-I noticed in a late number of the Ploughman a prescribed remedy for kicking cows. I have a remedy which I think is more simple and effectual. Take a rope the size of a clothes line and long enough to go around the girt of the cow, and fasten. Make a loop in one end of the rope, put the rope round the girt of the cow, and draw the other end of the rope through the loop as tight as a ma.n's strength can draw it; then fasten it securely, and the cow cannot be made to kick, even with a pitchfork. This rem edy is infallible for kicking 'cows or horses.-E. W. W., in Massa chusetts Ploughman. JArmNsE METHOD OF COOKING RIcE.--A letter from Japan says : "They know how to cook rice here. Only just enough cold water is poured on to prevent the rice from burning to the bottom of the pot, wvhich has a close-fitting cover and is set on a moderate fire. The rice is steamed, rather than boiled, until it is nearly done; then the cover of the pot is taken oft; the surplus steam and moist ure are allowed to escape, and the rice turns out a mass of snow white kernels, each separate from the other, and as much superior A CHEAP HARD SOAP. -Many housekeepers in the country know how difficult it is to obtain a good article of bar soap. The yellow soap sold at stores cuts soft as cheese, and rubs as ay as easily, and unless the housewife orders a box of soap at a time and puts it up in the attic or some dry place, the yearly record will show a good sum paid out for soap purchased by the bar. The following re ceipt will prove a desirable item of economy: Four large bars of yellow soap; two-pounds of sal-soda; three ounces of borax; one ounce of liquid ammonia. Shave the soap in thin slices, put it into eight quarts of soft water (rain water is the best.) When the soap is near ly dissolved, add the borax and sal-soda; stir till all is melted. Pour into a large tub or shallow pan ; when nearly cool add the ammonia slowly, mixing it well. Let it stand a day or two then cut into cakes or bars, and dry it in a warm place. No better soap can be made to wash white clothes, calicoes, and flannels, and it is ex cellent for household purposes. It costs three cents per pound and is made in less than half an hour. This receipt has been sold for five dollars, and will be of service to every family.-Southern Farmer. WHEAT SowING.-According to latitude and elevation, wheat should be sown from the middle of October to first of December the last period being suited to the Gulf borders. Wheat succeeds best in rather cold climates, but much can be done to offset adverse influences, and command success even in warm climates. We men tion a few of the steps to be taken in such localities. Sow an early variety, and procure seed from a region several hundred miles north of your farm, and select varieties that have the reputation of being rust-proof. Sow on high, dry soils, which never become water-sogged, and which are rather destitute of vegetable matter-pulverize the surface soil thoroughly-manure moderately, but not excessively, the latter induces too much sappi ness and favors the dccurrence of rust-top dress with moderate application of lime (three to five bushel's per acre.) Seed rather heavily, to prevent tillering and to encourage early maturing and even ripening. Sow in drills eigh teen inches to two feet apart, run ning niorth and south so as to ad mit sunshine and air freely. Southern Cultivator for October. COTTON SEED.-Thle following gocd suggestions from the Arkan sas State Grange, we endorse most heartily. Make the most of all your products: "It is probable that a cotton crop really immense will be gath ered this year. Of course, the lint will be very low, and it stands the cotton raiser in hand to make the most of the seed as well as the lint. The seed is used now for so many purposes that the world would miss it very much, if no more could be had. Let every bushel of it be used to the best advantage, and none given away or sold for a song, (unless to the' poor) for there is real intrinsic worth in cotton seed. Good feed for sheep and cattle, good for oil, good for manure, and many other uses. When the corn crop is short, it is a great help, but keep it away from hogs. Never let it lie '-in heaps in warm weather, it will breed flies by millions." CORN MEAL WAFFLES. -The yolks of two eggs well beaten, one teaspoonful of butter, one of wheat flour, one teaspoonful salt, one pint sweet milk (or water), one pint of corn meal, or corn four if you have it, is nicer ; and lastly, the whites of the eggs well beaten. Bake in waffle irons. Worms in hogs may be destroy ed by feeding the animal a quart of swill every morning in which six or seven bruised castor oil seeds have been mixed.

The Commissioner of Agriculture, in his report for the year 1875, speaks as follows: "There can be no doubt of the general adulteration of all malt liquors. In England and other countries, where heavy penalties are imposed, and an increasing vigilance practiced to detect and punish such frauds, by a system of inspection of all malt liquors manufactured before exposed to sale, the practice is very common. How much more in this country, where there are no laws on the subject, and no officer to carefully ana lyze the. products of the brewery? Some years ago, Professor Mapes, of New York, analyzed the beer from a dozen different breweries, and all were found adulterated with noxious substances. It is said that the sale of drugs to brewers is a profitable part of the trade. This is perfectly infamous. Cocculus indicus, (fish-berry,) nux vomica, (dog-button, from which strychnine is ob tained,) are some of the delectable substances found in beer! These are potent poisons, and the brewer found using them should be drowned at once in one of his own vats. The British Parliament passed a law to pre vent this nefarious business. The following is an extract: 'No druggist, vender of or dealer in drugs, or chemist, or any other person, shall sell or deliver to any licensed brewer, dealer in or retailer of beer, knowing them to be such, or shall sell or deliver to any person on account of,or in trust for, any such brewer, dealer or retailer, any liquor called by the name of or sold for coloring, from whatever material the same may be made; or any material or preparation other than unground brown malt, for the darken ing the color of worts beer, or any molasses, vitriol, honoy, quassia, coccolus indicus, grains of paradise, Guinea pepper, or opium, or any extract or preparation of molasses, or any article or preparation to be used in worts beer for or as a substitute for malt or hops; and if any druggist shall offend in any of these particulars. such preparation, &c., shall be forfeited, and may be seized by any officer of excise, and the person so offending shall for feit five hundred pounds.' "Under this law, very many druggists and brewers were brought to grief, and yet the practice continues. Unless the American public are ready to admit the immaculate purity and innocence of American brewers, they must be content, while drinking their beer, to cherish the belief that they are at the* same time guzzling some narcotic poison or damaging medicine. In view of the unpre cedented growth of the barley crop; of the great increase of the fihmber of malsters and brewers; of the vast unknown quantities of beer that are drunk in every city and almost every town on the continent, it is the dictate of sound wisdom that the attention of legis lators should be called to the subject of the adulteration of our malt liquors, and severe penalties should be inflicted as a preventive." JOHN C. SEEGERS' BEER is pure and reliable. Feb. 28, 9-tf. NOTICE. The copartnership heretofore existing between W. G. MAYES and J. N. MARTIN, has been this day dissolved by mutual con sent.
