Hope in the human breast is very strong, and the temptation to borrow very great, and w hen the day of pay ment is in the distant future the temp tation is still gnater.

Men have been feeding animalg from remote ages, and yet it is only within a few years past that the scrutinizing eye of science lias detected that there j i !UV supplies has been great waste; because the va- : prices, rious articles fed to animals have not been properly proportioned among themselves. Experience has shown that it was l»cst to give a mixed ration of concentrated food (grain), and that which is decidedly lens so (fodder); using the terms in a general sense, I corn and fodder have !»een the accept ed ration for animals. But corn and fodder vary much in composition, and in the absence of chemical analyses and very careful experiment, it had not been discovered what was a typi cal ration—one that came nearest to meeting the necessities of the animal. Now, however, since typical rations have !>een ascertained, the way is weli blazed out for the farmer to mix and prepare different kinds of food, so as to effect the greatest saving and pro duce the largest rest!Its with least ex penditure. The history of plant feed ing runs a very nearly parallel course to that of animal feeding. In a gen eral way it was quite early ascertained that the excrements and urine of an imals, and ashes would make plants grow; later it whs discovered that certain mineral substances, such as plaster, marl, phosphates, etc., had a The farmer pays^them down a year’s interest of a per cent, and the agent’s commission of 2 per dbnt. for tise whole five years in ad vance, and all costs, Ac.

The Northwestern Life Insurance Compa ny, eight or ten years ago, loaned about $100,ObO iu Georgia on mortgage at 10 per cent, interest.

But most of these wen very comisiund substances, and dif fered widely among themselves in composition. Just what elements or combination of elements in them con stitute,! good plant food rations, was H matter little understood until very recent times. During the last twenty or thirty years considerable progress in this direction has been made, but perfection has not been reached by a good deal. The similarity in general composition, of the numberless fertil izers now sold, shows that men are be ginning to have some ideas of plant food rations. Why do manufacturers of these have in their goods a certain percentage of this .substance and a different one of that, but from a sup position that such combinations will produce the finest crops? How they reached their conclusions is a matter of interest; partly, doubtless, from the teachings of agricultural chemists, gnd partly from field tests not haflflfcfeted thAf iu the.. .. they had all the lights necessary to m^ke faultless manures, but now that the matter has been taken up at the various agricultural experiment sta tions of the country, and properly qualified men are working earnestly upon the problem, wo may reasonably hope that in a few years typical plant rations will be quite as fully.perfected as those of animals. The/e is a deci ded drift in favoi of using Jess am monia for many crops, for the success ful growing of which it was formerly deemed essential to use large quanti ties. This is particularly true in re gard to corn. Test trials made in many different localities (where the same ingredients however, were used), show that nitrogenous fertilizers applied to corn very rarely pay. except when ap plied in "small quantity. Phosphoric ivid proved (he best and potash next to best for this crop, the combination of the two giving better results than either used singly. It would bo well to bear this in mind now, in prepar ing manure for corn, which may be done any time during this month, there being no necessity to apply it to the corn before the first or second working. These late applications, so far as we have observed, give the best results. Giving ample distance is one of the first requisites to raising large crops of corn. The average distance usu- D. F.

[From Hie Southern Industries.] Dr. Sturtcvant has made some in- teresting experiments with the potato at the New York Experiment Station, which shows that deep cut and single eyes produced the mo>d and best mar ketable potatoes, while single eyes cut shallow wore inferior. From a dissection of the potato the Doctor finds it put together something like the cone of a pine tree, the buds or eyes of the potato being connected by a*sort of umbilical coni with the cen ter of tile potato, at which point is the core or ee’.trai'stem. These internal stems or veins may be plainly seen in the raw potato by cuttinginthiii slices from stem to seed end and holding up to the strong light of a lamp. The appearance will be something like the frost work on our window panes on winter mornings. After th > starch grains are bursted by cooking, these veins probably ui- no, or are less visible. The new theory advanced by* Dr. Sturtcvant is, that the potato should be so cut as to keep the connection be tween the eye and the center of the tuber. The’experiments-for the past season showed that an eye cut shallow in every case, gave a smaller yield than when it was cut long or deep so ! as to reach to the center of the potata.

Hardly less important, is feeding the crop well, so as to raise a large amount on a small area, and thus cut down the expense account. It is a valuable crop on a farm, but most too expensive. Checking, high manuring, deep and thorough preparation hef. re planting, are the most effective means for redu cing the expense.
