EXPERIENCE WITH GRASSES AND STOCK Previous to 1852, I was farming in tnj native county, Laurens, S. C., but alway: having a fancy for stock and grass, and be lieving that I could do jettcr in Northerr Georgia than in Laurens, I moved and set tied in Cass County, about twelve miles frou Mr. Howard, where I farmed on the mixcc plan with tine success, raising as fine elovoi as I have ever seen grow auywherc else.? When I first began sowing clover seed, 1 found the prejudices of my neighbors jusl as stroug against the grasses as in my native State, but my buaceea stimulated othors until that region has become a fine clovci t country. I left there during the war, anc after the war settled at Martin's Depot, S C., where I have grown as good clover as I ever sa.r, cutting one season three good crops from the same land, but I am convinced that we should not cut more than two crops, and rarely nioro than one ; as it robs the land too much, the last crop should be left ou the land. I have made excellent hay of clover, Herd's crass, and crab i/rass. and can tnstifv that it is as easy to raise clover here or anywhere in the Unite J States, it only requiring of us the same efforts made by others The main cause of failures hero is, thai most persons try to get a crop of clover and gsain at the same time, when the land is toe poor for one crop. Clover should be sowe on laud previously well cultivated in cotton potatoes, peas, or some cleanly hoed crop I have succeeded better sowing in MarcV than any other time,on land freshly plough cd ; and, after sowing, harrow again, if con venicnt, but it makes but little difference whether harrowed in or not, as the first shower will put it in ; be sure to put no crop with it unless it be orchard grass ; oats will dry it up and ruin }'our stand. If weeds come up, all the better, for they will garrison the clover against the crab grass, and will not injure the crop. y I have raised turnips with fine success, both here aud iu Georgia : have grown three hundred bushels to the acre, with but little trouble and expense, and have no doubt we can raise three times three, if a proper effort be made. We usually take up our turnips, and bed them like potatoes, and feed as we need them, to sheep and cattle. Herd's grans can be grown here to perfection. I find it growing on our branch bottoms nearly everywhere I go. Orchard grass docs well here, and is the best mixture with red clover that I have tried, both ripening at the same time. We also hare the Bermuda grass, and, from present indications, it will soon possess all tho bottom land in this section, and the earlier the better; then some people will have grass and hay who have never known the good of it ; and, for permanent pasture, tho Ileruiuda grass, and tho white clover mixed, will make about as perfect a pasture as any other known grasses, each growing in its time, as if the other was not prcseut, and furnishing grazing nearly all the year. Everybody knows crab grass, but few know its value for hay; it rarely fails on well cultivated land, and makes exccllcut bay if cut while in bloom aud well cured ; in addition to these we have an abundance of JaDan Clover, (Lcspcilcza striata,) and other (grasses, for sheep pasture, and I assert, without fear of successful contradiction, that wc can raise sheep here as cheady and profitably as anywhere this far North, and I ain almost ready to say anywhere in the United States, unless California furnishes an exception ; and this uiry be done to a considerable extent without diminishing tho cotton crop; but, on the contrary, by grazing the waste places, wc add a fertilizer that is very cheap, the manufacturer working for nothing and paying his board. The sheep yields three crops, wool, lauibs, and manure ; either of the first two will moro than pay all expenses, leaving the other two clear profit. it is regarded good economy at the North, ,/ J Ba 1 ^ ? - i**' i > i i _ on mixed farms, to keep ouo sheep for eve- ii ry acre of tillable land. This cau be done n on nearly ovcry coCton plantation, and will add to, rather than dimiuish, the cotton ; o and when othor crops of sheep feed fail, a the cotton seed makes an excellent feed. 1 t I have wintered our sheep entirely on raw a cottou seed, fed twice a day, at the rate of j, thrco bushels to the hundred sheep; even wheu we have plenty of other feed, we usually givo them souio cotton seed, of which s they arc very loud. Our 6hcep pay us p much better, iu proportion to outlay, than 1 any crop wo raise, and if I had the money, I know of do iuvestment I would rather t make, than to buy a few hundred Merino i sheep ; 1 want tire hundred on our little furui, and will not be satisfied until I get c thcui. a As an evidence of the profit of the Me- j rino sheep, I will state that wintering ewes lust winter cost uie fifty cents a head, aud t twenty-five yearlings averaged eight pounds \ of wool, some going as high as ten, while our breediug-rams sheared from fourteen to 1 twenty pounds; this wool is worth in the i dirt about thirty-three and a third cents per pound. Kwcs having lambs will yield t about one-third less than those that arc \ without lambs, but always cuough to pay for herself aud lauib lor one year, so the lamb i starts out of debt and pays well as he goes, t aud never dies insolveut. The greatest 4 drawback to the sheep business is not the waut of gr:iss, hay or turnips, but the dog s and thief; tlio former cau be disposed of i with a shortened biscuit, but the latter fur- 1 nishes a knotty questiou I cau't solve. 1 have given several facts, and I will give a i theory that differs from the generally re- \ ceivcd opinion of knowing ones; it is, that sheep arc rarely killed by very poor dogs ; t negroes' dogs rarely kill sheep without the 1 aid of the owner; it is the fat, well-fed ras- i cal that does the mischief; at any rate, this has been my experience. The fat dog be- 1 gins the killing for mischief, but after his i frolic is over he returns to take a bait of fresh mutton, when, if you are in time to put iu fresh strychnine, you will get him every time. The poor dog huuts for the ' crumbs, aud dead carcasses. < We have succeeded very well in raising 1 cattle, but only keep a few, as the sheep 1 pays so much better. I have lost more in : hogs than auy other stock, which is always a heavy loss, as they cost so much to raise j them. I am sure that we ought only to , keep a few gleaners, and leave the bulk of the ? hog business to ten ccuts a bushel corn men; hogs will uot pay where coru is worth fifty cents per bushel. { I should have added lucerno to the hay , crops spoken of above. About four years , ago, I prepared about half an acre of rich land, that had been heavily manured the i,..c.? ??.l ?**? * 1 Does it debar Stillman from marrying now on earth ?"

This ceremony, solemnly preformed by the , Rev. Samuel Watson over the natural body of Stillman and the materialized form of .
