In a fartn of 200 acres in Knox comity. Tonn., tlie writer has nbout .100 acres in old fields, badly worn and washed by mnnv years' cultivation. There are not loss than one hundred million acres in a similar condition that helont* to other farmers, and the best treatment of those lands is a subject for study and practice. Within a few davs 1 have walked ton miles, mainly across old fields, to the farm referred to, the better to study the growth of sedge, briers and bushes, during the last fifteen years residence in Middle Tennessee. < hi turned-out fields the gullies are deeper, wider and more numerous than on fields in cultivation. On steep sido-hills there ar" acres so gullied that it will cost to reclaim one acre more than ten acres set i 11 grass will bo worth at this time. Nevertheless, a little labor, some patience and experience in ' planting grasses, will cover these naked red hills and deep gullies with perennial herbage of considerable value. Bermuda grass, Pennsylvania blue grass and Texas blue grass are probably the best adapted to hold a soil to its place on a side-hill and supply grazing both summer and winter. Bermuda will give summer pasture and the# other grasses named will yield winter grazing the same as winter rye and oats, but without plowing or seeding. Pennsylvania blue grass in pott vompr* st?f, which has runners like Bermuda, and is especially troublesome in cultivated fields. On my farm near Athens, On., 1 multiplied by division one plant of poa comprexsa into a thousand within a year. There wer? 401) acres in turned-out old fields in that farm when 1 bought it. I imported from London sixty different species of grass seeds for experimental purposes on these old fields, which were exchanged for limestone lands in East Tennessee, during Lie war, better adapted to grain and grass oul ture. There are no lime rocks within Some forty miles of Athens to ho burned and used for the improvement of soils, while any quantity of pure lime, unslucked, can ho burned on the writer's Knox county farm, for five cents a bushel. Fair limestone land is too cheap to justify a poor man, who has children and grand-children to provide for, to invest his income in making hillsido terraces. The writer has. seen the population of the United States increase from six million to sixty million, and he can see no reason whv his great grand-children may not see sixty million souls increase to six hundred million by the potency of the same law of humanity. Agriculture, as a science, is developing not only wonderful potency, but still more wonderful potency. The energy, the intellect and the capital that lmvo given existence to 150,000 miles of working railways in this nation of farmers, will say to all depleted farms we want larger crops for freights, and to get thom we will do all that is necessary to be done to reclaim and rejuvenate old fields. Four or five thousand million dollars invested in iron and stee! raiJrf is sound seed corn well planted if regarded as a whole. To consume or waste fertility is to destroy this largo capital. Fertility is a national interest of inestimable % value. By resting a field twenty years and per. mitting the surface soil to wash away little every year, what is the gain? 'If well sot in winter and summer! grasses, and stocked with brood . mares, neat cattle, sheep and swine, and gullies would have boon avoided,' fertility largely increased and the i come from the farm more than doubled. For a soil-washing climate wo ' use the plow ullogutnor too much. Fluntcra liavo spent their lives plowing and fighting grass without see, ing that nature has made the Southern States a grass-growing country. Our wealth and highest prosperity ' lie in tiiis path of duty. Tim Do? roit. Tennesson, 1SS8. Ail lCxbort at Ion Keif rented. i in the December (18S7) number I of 77a' Sort/urn I ti/tirnf >r appearI ed an article under the title of i "Smaller Fields and I nrirrr I I nr. vests." This article was received with favor both bv press and people, for it has been copied by many Southern newspapers was finally embraced in selected matter for "Patent (bitsides" ?and has been commented on with approval bv many jcitizens, especialIv those enlaced in agricultural pursuits. It is not the purpos(\of the writer of this who was also the author of the article in {question, to repeat whet that article contained, but rather to nri'o every i one to consider its advice seriously and to observe its suggestions. 1 do not wish my friends who till the ground to grow poorer each vcar, but desire that they mnv, bv pursuing a course of wisdom, require the means of comfort and usefulness. Reform will never result in any business unless tiiose who prosecute the < particTi'ar calling will act in roofer- 1 tnity to good suggestions. .1' b -,v ' desire to exhort, the fnrmers < le ' South to reduce the acreage thev are I now cultivating, ami at ttie cume time increase tlmir harvests. 1 >o | this by tne methods detailed in the i | article mentioned. l)nn*t snv, "well, this is all right," and still go on with i the ruinous folly oi cultivating in ! poor stylo extended fmMs of poor : land. . I , 1, Iloro 1 will announce that it. matters not whether this advice has pr <- !' ceednd from a fanner or a man who1 j never saw a plow or a hoe; indeed, i' I ] matters not whether the author can : tell a turnip from a cabbage- the I question is, is the advice good? The ( man who has accomplished more for < I agriculture throughout the world i , n *> than any other was never engaged in practical agriculture. lie was a scientist and tested his scientific tlx1 |ories in earthen pots, using as fertil- , ! i/.ers the various constituents of r I plants, singly or in combination, noi ting the result of each experiment. ' ' ; t Tho intelligent and successful far ( I mors of this country are governed t I i t . by the rules lie* has pro^lainvd. If '< I they should reject his advice be-1J j cause it does not como from a praeti. cal farmer, tlie husbandmen, who t I now observe his rules, would lose I if : much of their harvests and write j themselves down as foolish. In the article referred to?-"Smaller Fields and Larger Harvests"?the writer believes a rule of action is presented which, if observed, will .work wonderful benefits for the farmers of the ! * i South. This being my honest con-j I viction, 1 urge every farmer of tho 1 j Southern States to read, consider , sud act upon its suggestions. This'1 I advice is not too late for the present ? f * "'If ( I year s forming. 1 Hour. Fulton County, Ga. Feeding For Lean >!ent. < y The readers of the fnlfirntar are already aware that the experiments ' of I'rofs. Ilenrv and Sanborn in feed- j n ing for lean meat, have excited no little interest. They have de * n strated that the ratio of lean to fat j bears a relation to the ratio of albuminoids to fats carbohvdrates in the > ^ j food. The richer tho food in albumi- t noids, tho more loan in the meat 1 made from it; while the more carbonacoous the food, the larger tho proportion of fat laid on by tho animalTho conditions under which three- ] fourths or more of the meat of this 1 country is produced aro such that a i j pound of fat is made at a loss cost than a pound of loan; and as in tho j general market ono soils for tho I name price as tho other, it is more 'profitable to feed foods rich in tho | fats and carbohydrates than in tho j albuminoids. In fact, a very fat an-! | imal s??lIs more readily than lean animal. Until the taste of consum- , 1 ( ers is changed, the man who feeds < for meat to be sold in the general ' market, would be foolish to feed < rich in albuminoids. Undoubtedly \ 'consumers are tiring of the over-fat < I n . 11 meat with which they are supplied, and already the demand for a larger I proportion of lean jias sprung up; I but until this demand controls tho t 9 * market, it will be tl?e more profitable to feed carbonaceous foods, unless the meat is for a special market. It is hertain that as much nutriment i:. tr??t fr n the uunt mark from a dollar's worth of foods rich in the albuminoids as from a dollar's worth of foods rich in the fats and carbohydrates. A pound of meat from the former contuins more nutriment, has n greater food value than a pound of meat from the latter. It' must be remembered that bone and muscio can not be made froi% fat; from it only heat and fat can l>o made; whenever in our food there if an excess is wasted; hence foi our own supply il will iisnall> l?e more profitable for us to make meats from foods-rich in the albuminoids. To suppl> the. wants of ourown families, at least, il will nay us to feed for lean meat. South* t n ('uNivator. i'lie Cleinson Colli'jfi'. ('apt I). Is.
