M. A. MASTERS, Adm'x. March 11, IWmI 35 5 Jjg?" Communications from our Farmers on any matter pertaining to Agriculture, are respect fully solicited for this column. To tho Fanners of Souih Carolina. Editor Intelligencer : Here we arc preparing for another cot? ton crop. Cotton fields and corn patches are the order now. It was once corn fields and cotton patches, and it will have to turn back again or the guano ageuts will own tjhe State. There are ten times more mortgages given now in one year than there was twenty-live year3 ago. What has caused this condition of things? Wc answer that the unlimited use of guano has caused it. Look in the bone yard on salcday and you will see what guano has done for our country. You will see more old perisbed-put horses and mules thau were ever in this country before. Planting too much cotton has caused it. Now we raise cotton for 7* cents a pound, and pay $1.00 for a bushel of coru and \2\ cents for bacon. We depeud on the North and West for these products and keep our corn cribs .and smoke houses there instead of at home. If the farmers of South Carolina would make three bales of cotton to the horse and 150 bushels of corn, with plenty of wheat and oats, then they could live at home. The old men GO years of age own the greater part of our lands. The young generation that is growing up will not owu any cousiderablc amount of laud except what they inherit, for they have to pay for their guano, and that will take all they cau make. The stock law has contributed to produce this condition of over cotton'culture. Farmer. Ashes as Manure. I have saved and applied all the ashes possible for several years, and am satis? fied that, considering the labor of saving and applying, they are as valuable as anything we can secure on the farm. I have used both wood and coal; there is very little value in coal ashes as a fertil? izer, but the coarse portions can bo used as material to make walks about the place, and the fine are good litter to' loosen up a stiff soil or apply as a top dressing under or around the currant and gooseberry bushes; for either purpose they arc well worth the trouble it will take to apply. Wood ashes are also valuable as a fer? tilizer. Those that are unle?ched are of cour?e better than those leached. They can always be used profitably in the or? chard around the trunks of the trees, whether the trees are young or old. To secure the best results, the soil should be cither ploughed or spaded up, and the ashes applied as even as possible, and then thoroughly worked up with the soil. They are very valuable as a fertilizer for potatoes. My method for using them for this crop is to apply in the furrows after marking off the rows,' taking*paius to work well in with the soil before planting the seed ; this places them in a condition best calculated to be reached by the feeding roots of the plants, riant the potatoes and then cover well and step upon the hill after covering, so as to press tho soil firmly down upon the seed. Salsify can be benefited by an appli? cation in the same nay. With onions I use as a top dressing, applying after the Beed is sown, as evenly as possible over the surface. In cultivating they will become thoroughly incorporated with the Boil, and will not only aid materially in securing a good crop of onions, but also to keep down the weeds. Nearly all the garden plants can be benefited more or less by having an ap? plication of good wood ashes thoroughly worked into the soil around the roots. This should always be done with manure of every kind, if the surest and best re? sults are desired. The fertilizers must be placed where the feeding roots of the plants can readily reach them if they would derive any considerable amount of benefit from tho application.? Coun? try Gentleman. Hieb Milk. While there may be considerable dif j ference in the milk of cows that receive like treatment, we are quite positive, from our own experience and observa? tion, that as a rule, the great difference in the qualities of milk is attributable, and may be directly traced, to -he vary? ing character of the food given. We fully believe in the truth of the ?ft re pcatcd statement that a cow is simply a machine for converting raw food mate? rials into milk. The quality of the product from the machine, as from all other machines, depends mainly upon the character of the material used. No milling apparatus ever invented and operated can make a good article cf flour from a poor, low quality of grain. It is an utter impossibility. Nor can a rich quality of milk be obtained from a poor article of food. We often see farmers feeding their milch cows on flat marsh hay. Such food will hardly sustain life in an animal. The manure from animals fed upon such food alone is hardly worth hauliug to the field. The bulk is there, but that is of little use if it has no quality worth mentioning. How can the farmer expect good rich milk from such food? When accompanied with a liberal quantity of meal or other rich I condensed food medium results may be obtained. But to get a good quantity and a good quality of milk, hay made from nutritious grasses must be used, accompanied by meal and a limited amount of green food, such as our various roots afford. The succulent nature of roots tends to materially in? crease the fl'?w of milk, but unless ac? companied by something more nutritious aud hearty, it will be light and thin. ' Tho addition of meal to the roots makes a most complete and wholesome diet for milch cows. We have ta>ted milk in which we imagined that we could detect the flavor of the rieh meal. It seemed almost lit to put into the churn just as it came from the cow. We observe the same differences in the pastures. A marshy flat grass pasture will never yield such :nilk as comes from the nutritious tame g?ass pastures. An increased quantity as well as a better quality of milk cmies from tho latter. Farm<-r- bsv<> tun generally gotten into the way of devoting ihn low wet portions of their pastures that bear nothing but the poorest quality of wild grasses, to pasturage uses. A co'd sour soil is as valueless for this use as it is for crop? ping with ordinary farm crop.--. Tho farmer who keeps milch cows can well afford to give them the best that the farm afford*. If his milk goes to the cheese factory it will weigh enough more to pay him ; and if it is made into but? ter, the higher quality of the article will surely bring sufficient consideration.? Dairy World. The Cheapest Poultry, The cheapest poultry to raise and feed is. first the duck, second the hen, third the guinea-hen. Geese, if kept in good order, are expensive to feed, especially in winter; and turkeys, if they have the run of the farm, "eat their head3 off" many tiuie3 before they are sold. No less than half a pint of corn a day will keep a goose well in winter, and it should have half as much in summer, though some say that they can raise geese on grass alone. We never could. As to the turkeys there is no limit, apparently, to the quantity of corn or peanuts that a live active turkey will consume if he can get at it. Still if raised away from the corn aud other crops, a flock of turkeys will nearly feed themselves by foraging the pastures and orchards, and so can be reared at comparatively small expense. They re? quire large range, where they can find bugs, grasshoppers, nuts, acorns, &c. Under such conditions turkeys are very profitable to raise. The duck will eat a good deal, is a vo? racious feeder in fact, but it is an indus? trious forager, and, having the range of larger yards or meadows, will keep fat on what it will pick up. It may have the range of the fields, as it interferes very little with the crops. As it lays a good many eggs, it pays for its keep almost as well as the hen. It should have a house and range apart other poultry. The domestic hen, though it needs liberal feedings, soon pays it ail back in eggs, and is or may be made the most profitable of nil poultry. There is a great difference in the value of breeds. The light Brahma we have found the best, next the Plymouth Rock?great layers if well and properly fed?the Black Spanish aud the Leghorn. The guinea-hen is also a profitable fowl?a good layer and cheap to feed. Its great fault is its shy retiring habits and propensity to hide its nest. Its noisy clamor is also objectionable. But it will lay almost as many eggs as the ben, and so long as egg? sell by the dozen its ovums count equal to the largest of , the Brahmas. We would not keep the guinea from the poultry range. The peafowl, swan and pigeon are of little account in a mouey point of view. They are for the large homesteads with the parks, lakes and every rural orna? mentation. The domestic hen, then, and next to it the duck, is the cheapest fowl for the small farmer or the village dweller. But the question of economy is largely one of management. There must be some system and some degree of common sense brought to bear upou poultry raising to make any branch of it profitable. Ex? perience is the best teacher. But neg? lect of any essential point is worse than a mortgage on the flock. It destroys principle as well as proLia. Clean quar-' tcrs and some grain daily are indispen sible.?Rural Messenger. Orchard Grass. The following paper read by Mr. D. F. Mills, Sumner County, Tenn., before the Inter-State Agricultural Convention, recently held at Jackson, Teun., was re? ceived with great favor by every one who heard it. Mr. Mills said: "I have been sowing orchard grass for fifteen years. To give an idea about this valuable grass, I will describe mine as it now stands. I have about three hundred acres, which has been sowed for from two to fifteen years without reseeding, and it is now green as can be, notwith? standing the long spell of freezing weather we have had this wiutcr. I think it will grow and flourish if prop? erly seeded and managed in almost any latitude, judging from the way it stands the droughts and freezes we usually have. I sow both in the fall and spring and rarely fail to get a good stand. I, how? ever, prefer sowing in Semptember, say from the 1st to the 20tb, with clover, if desired for a hay crop the following year. I regard orchard grass and clover mixed, cut at the proper time, superior to any hav ever used on my farm, and I raise aff kinds, timothy, herd-gra^s and all the millet hays. I regard it as having the finest fattening qualities of any of the known grasses, and, as for pastures or grazing grass, it is with me much su? perior to all others, blue-grass not excep? ted, as it is the earliest and the latest grazing. I have had much experience in grazing it; for instance, in October, 1884,1 grazed 150 head of 1,200 pound cattle from October 1 to January 10. I made a test of the fattening qualities by weighing a lot of eight of those cattle after weighing them at Lebanon and driving them twenty miles to my farm. I weighed the same eight head of steers thirty days after they had beeu on the grass, and they averaged a gain of forty five pouuds per head, although driven before weighed two and one-half miles to the scales. Wc thought the entire lot averaged at least -10 punds per head up to the time wc commenced feeding, which was January 10. Fifteen days after talcing the cattle off the pasture, we tu.ned in 300 head of sheep and grazed them until April 15, but found they damaged the yield of seedtper acre one half. By grazing the sheep so late in the spring, as the avcrago was only five bushels of seed per acre, whereas the year before, I averaged ten bushels per acre by not grazing so late and heavy in the spring. Now, understand before I commenced grazing the cattle in October, I had cut the grass for seed with self binders, tied and 'shocked as wheat or oats. I averaged ten bushels of seed per acre sold to the dealers in Nashville at $2 per bushel, and within ten days or two weeks after cutting for seed I mowed the meadow, which produced one ton of good bav per acre, estimated in sheds by measurement, which was sold to parties for whom I was grazing cattle at SS per ton in the sheds. This particular meadow was mixed with clover. I forgot to state that I sold the straw after threshing the seed for S3 per ton. "In conclusion I will say that orchard grass stays green and grows the year round; grows, too, when mostly needed, from the fall rains in September to ma? turity. It is as much a winter grass as ; summer on good land, when not grazed i too late in the spring. 1 am curtain, ! from ample experience, that ii will make ! from fifteen to twenty-five bushels of seed per aero. All kinds of stock are I fond of it." Some Advice to Girls. Sain Jones closed bis labors for the week in Chicago Saturday night with a sermon to girls only. There were over 4,500 present. Among other things Mr. Jones said: "Girls, watch your com? pany. An angel from heaven could not keep some company that girls do in Chicago and not be corrupt. Pure, noble girls stand alone on this earth for beauty and glory. Roys go in bad com? pany, but the hope of this laud is in its pure girls. Oh! be vigilant; guard your parlor. Beware with whom aud how you go to entertainments." Mr. Jones then indulged in a long descrip? tion and denunciation of the perfumed youug man. He also described a chase of ladies after spider-legged dudes. "Tell mc what your associations are, young lady, and I will give you a glimpse of your history. Is he an exquisite dancer? Does he wear perfect pants? Is his hair parted elegantly in the mid? dle? Does he clerk in a big establish? ment at ?60 a mouth and spend $40 a month for board, $30 a month for car? riage hire and $20 a month for theatres? Does he convince you that he has not a stingy bone in his body ? Do you think he is "just nice ?" Where does he get his money ? * * * * * "I am in love with the wool hat aud jeans pants hoy. He starts at $10 a month, sticks to business aud the wool hat till he gets a thousand a year; then gets to be junior partner, then senior partner, and finally owus the whole stock where he docs business. You stylish girls do not like him ; well, he likes you just about as well, for when he wanted a wife he went back to his country home and married plaiu Mary, and for a few years it was love in a cottage, and now he ha3 a residence on Michigan avenue. Girls, tie to these wool hat boys and they will take care of you. "A beautiful girl of this city arranged to attend a wine supper last week. When the night came she sent word, saying, 'I can't go; my heart has been touched at the meetings.' Now she has brought three of her associates here with her. What do you waut of wine suppers, oh ! mothers ? No matter what the devil may owe you, if he sends you about three druuken sons-in-law he will have paid you all the debt and you will receipt in full. Then, girls, watch these tempers. If a girl is ugly to her mother she will make it warm in her own home, if she ever has ouc." All the girls who talked ugly or saucy to mothen were asked to stand up. There was no uprisiug, not one. "Mothers, overhaul your libraries* A young girl once said sbe was terribly bored by reading the Bible. The poor, silly, sap-headed thing. Some mothers fix their daughter to be damued." Waters of Utah, There is irj the extreme north of Utah a magnificent subterranean reservoir of first class soda water, bubling and effer? vescing out of the ground in such quan? tities that all America might be supplied In the extreme south, on the road to Orderville, is an exquisite circular lake? let that is always just full to the brim with water as dear and as green as beryl. And wherever the water overflows the lake's edge it incrusts the ground and the grass and the fallen leaves upon it with a fine coating of limestone, so that the brim is perpetually growing higher and higher with the imperceptible but cer? tain growth of a coral reef, and in course of generations the lake will become a concreted basiu. Between these two points are scattered all over the country springs and pools of the straugest waters. There is one pool only a foot deep, and situated at a high altitude, that refuses to freeze even in the severest winters. There is another that mysteriously lepleuishes itself with half-grown trout. One stream that I saw, though clear as crystal to the eye and tasteless, stains all the vegetation it flows over a deep brown. A warm spring near Salt Lake City is the stronges!. sul. phur in the world. A "hot spring" a few miles off, with waters so hot that you can hardly put your hand into them, and as bright as.diamonds, is one of the most remarkable combinations of chemicals ever analyzed. Shot Robbing his own House, A sensational tragedy is reported in Granger County, Tennessee. The trustee of the County was William Ju3tis, a man universally esteemed and respected, lie enjoyed the absolute confidence of the community, and held the position for a number of years. On Friday he re? turned from his office and deposited a money bag in his room, saying it lon tained s2,500, which h3 had collected in County taxes. He bid his wife good bye, saying he had bu-iness in an adjoiu ing county and would return next day. During the day a cousiu of the lady came to her house and was given a room for the night. About midnight he was aroused by a burglar and fired on him. The thief uttered a howl of agony and fell back dead, lie proved to be the trustee, who was endeavoring to steal the public money, and then claim that he hid been robbed. Bnclilcn's Aniaca Salve.

This class of troublesome complnints embraces a large list, some of which alllict nearly every family iu the land. Heretofore "the treatment of nearly all these diseases has been very unsatisfac? tory and unsuccessful, and the people have been very much deceived by pre? tended remedies. A majority are caused by an impure, vitiated condition of the blood, and as most of the blood remedies of the day require 50 to 100 bottles be? fore you discover that they will not effect a cure, we offer B. B. B., which makes positive cures by the use of only a few bottles. The most common of the skin diseases which are cured by the use of B. B. B., the only quick Blood Purifier, are as follows: Eczema, Old Ulcers. Impetigo, Abscesses, 15e:uiiil'nl Complexion is sought by the use of cosmetics and all sorts of external applications, some of them being poisonous. All females love to look pretty (which gentlemen do not object to) and a smooth, soft, clear complexion adds greatly to female charms. The use of B. B. B. will purify your blood, will remove blotches, splotches and bumps that appear upou the face and neck, and will tiuge the pale cheek with the roseate hues of nature. One or two bottles will convince any one of its value. No family should fail to keep B. B. B. iu the house, as there is no family medicine its equal. One author says: "Bhumatism is due to the presence iu the blood of a vegeta? ble organism of definite characters." Another says: "It is due to the pres? ence of a poison in the blood which is of the nature of a miasm." The disease having its origin iu the blood, it is reasonable to suppose that it must bo cured by remedies directed to the blood. A successful remedy must produce certain changes in the composi? tion of the blood, and whea this has been accomplished, all pain, swelling and stiff? ness of the joints subside. This accounts for the reason why ex? ternal applications fail to produce perma? nent relief. But we now have the reme? dy which acts like magic in giving relief to all forms of rheumatism, rheumatic gout, rheumatism of the joints, muscles and heart. It a'so cures syphilitic and mercurial pains and rheumatism in an incredibly short time. The fact cannot be denied that B. B. B. (Botanic Blood Balm) has proven itself to be the most speedy and wonderful remedy for all forms of rheumatism ever before known. Men wit 1 two crutches, and hobbliug along with stiffened and painful joints, withered flesh, loss of sleep and appetite, are cured by the use of B. B. B. Cast aside all other remedies, use B. ?. B. aud vou will soon have no use for crutches. Erysipelas, Ringworm, Scaldhead, Pruritus, Old Sores, Pimples, Itch, ] >ry Tetter, Carbuncles, Itching Humors, Blotches, Herpes, Boils, Splotches.
