Thonffhts for the Month.
[From Hh« January Cultivator.]
In accordance with a widely pre
vailing custom The Cultivator gives
■hearty greeting to its thousands of
subscribers and readers, while the
writer t fliers his especial compli
ments to the farmers among whom
and for whom he has worked and
written and thought for many years
past. Notwithstanding failures and
disappoiutments of the year just
close i, and in view of the promises
that "seed time and harvest, and
cold and heat, and summer and
winter, and day and night, shall
not cease” let every one apply him-
telf with new hope, redoubled ener
gy and unflagging zeal to the du
ties of the New Year—18881
RJBVIKW OF THE PAST.
New Years’is the traditional time
for making new resolution 1 *. It is
a convenient time to "turn over a
new leaf,” as it is commonly ex
pressed In order to determine
wisely and clearly his plans and
purposes for the year just entered,
each farmer should look back on
the past year and compare the re
suits of his twelve months’ labors
with the plans, purposes and ex
pectations with which he began
operations last January. He is an
Unwise gentral who plans and in
augurates a new campaign without
Reference to the conditions, methods
and movements of previous cam
paigns which brought victory and
Bnocess, or led to disaster ami fail
ure. Expel ieuce is said tn be a
"dear school,” but it is a very val
Uable school. Patrick Henry said,
In reference to the pending troubles
of the Colonies with the Briti.-h
Government, that he had but one
lamp by whic his feet were guided
—"the lamp of experience.” While
a farmer has other lights besides,
that ol expenenc- —so far as it ex
lend# along the wag—is a safe gui le.
Let the whole course of last
years’ (dans and work, the condi
tions, circumstances and season’s
be recalled, as far as may be,
Trace successes or failures to their
causes. Note the effect of changes
from previous methods. Go back
in memory to former years; extract
from the experience of your past
history as a farmer all the excellen
cies, and reject all the blemishes.
It is only by so doing that we can
proflt by the lessons of the past.
THE PRESENT CONDITION.
It ought to be no difficnlt matter
for a farmer to compare his condi
tion and circumstances now with
his condition one year ago. Still,
we fear there are many farmers who
cannot sa. certainly, because they
do not know whether they are bel
ter or worse off—whether on the
Whole they have advanced or ret
rograded. This ought not so to
be, and would not it they would aO
qu re the habit of keeping some
sort ot accounts of farm operations.
But every farmer knows wheturi
bis general condition is prosperous
and fatistaetory. Mu h has been
said and written ot late about th<-
general conditidu of Southern ami-
culture, and intelligent in* n hold
precisely opposite opinions as to
Whether, as a class we aie growing
poorer or richer. The question
may never be determined, and it
determined little can be done to
ameliorate the condition of agricul
ture by concerted or co operative
action so far as the actual manage
ment of our farms—our system of
taming—is concert ed. Co opera
tfon among farmers has often been
attempted, but has never achieved
any decided success. It is imprac
ticable to control the operations of
Individual farmers by any sort of
feei lotions or covenants or pledges.
There are too many of them; they
are too widely separated; tuey can
not meet in mass conventions; their
bircnmstonces and surroundings
art too varied and diverse.
Let agricnltnral conventions and
farmers’ congresses moot and dis-
cossand resolve and adjourn. They
•timelate thought and aronse in
vestigation. Tne exchange of ex
periences; suggestions of improved
methods, and the social intercourse
are beneficial and helpful The
dhief beaefit, however, to be expect
of these representative assemblies
is the molding of public opinion
qnd the giving expression to the de
mands of the great agricuborai
Classes of the country for equal and
fair legislation, the abolition of un
^ it discriminations, and the estab-
bmentof schools of agriculture,
experiment stations, departments
Of agriculture and the like, for the
development and protection and
idvancement of agricnltnre.
WHAT WILL YOU DO.
Each farmer most determined for
himself, with all the lights before
■im, what he may and will do for
himself. Let him resol vs that what-
•v#others may do, he will panne
that course, in general plan and de
tail, that is indicated by experience,
obeeryatiOn and oarefnl study.

may say, or what Granges or Alli
ances may resolve. If every farm *r
wo Id pursue this course there
would result at once the begining
of an independent, self-ieliaut in
dividnal system, the result of
which Is benefltting each individ
ual adopting such a system, will be
the advancement and npbnild'ng of
the aggregate of all such mdivid
nals This mast be the basis of
our improvement and progress.
TAKING STOCK.
Every farmer ongbt to ‘Oak®
stock,” as the merchants expres 8
it, at least oneea year. Note down
in a diarv or account book the num
ber, condition and value of stock of
all kinds, the amonnt and value of
supplies of food, the value of mu
chinery andimplement*. Alsotske
account of the yield of last year’s
crops, the money returns for the
same, the amount he owes and
what is owing him. Open a cash
account and put down the outjoet
and the incomes. If compelled to
buy supplies or incur debts of any
kind, borrow the money if possible
and pay as you go. Do not put the
keeping of your accounts entirely
in the hands of your merchant, if
you will rnn an account, hut keep a
pass book and require every bill of
purchases to be entered.
MAKING LABOR CONTRACTS.
In making engagements for labor
it should be remembered that, in
the long run. nothiug is gained by
securing laborers at prices below
the possibility of honest living.
Better give liberal wages and the '
insist, by personal presence and
close suiiervision, on honest, faith
ful compliance Liborers nr st
live, and they will live—honestly
or otherwise.
PLOWING—TERRACING.
In our climate, rsa general rule
un i so far as the desired disinteg
ration and pulverization of the soil
is concerned, the later the breaking
up before planting tbc fcetteV.
Our c ean, heavy clay soils, it plow
ed very early, will soon run togeth
er by the heavy rains of the early
months ot the year, and be in bm
little better condition when plant
ing-time arrives than if not. Edt
on every farm there are ti.-lds oi
stubble lands, or fields covered with
grass and weeds that should be
plowed at once. Crab ami crow
foot grass K plowed under early aud
not covere I too ileep, will rot amt
beuetit the soil and the crop. If
deferred until just bet re plaining
it will be much better to burn oil'
a heavy coating of grass than to
turn it under. AttNis late stage
the grass bag been leached ot its
albuminous matters and the loss by
burning will amount to h lie in
comparison with the greadv im
proved condition of the plowed soil.
Borne expeneue d tanner has said
that if it were practible to do so h<-
would prefer, as a geiural rule, to
plow all his laud the day before
planting.
la view of the prohibit} bad
weather) amounting sometimes to
an entire month when a p ow can
not be run at all without, greater
injury than possible beuefli, it is
well to commence plowing early in
Ja nan, , or even before, as al-
read* indicated Oui oau rule is to
kee the work animals busy doing
the hauling of i ails, fire wo d, In
ter for stables aud lots, m nerials
for composting, etc., so that plow
ing may be done when the gr< ami
is in the best condition. Deep
turning or inversion of culinary
soils is not the best practice. Bub
soiling is of donotful profit on old
aud worn soils unless well tuanured.
The general experience is in fa
vor of terracing as compared with
hillside ditching, as a preventive ol
washing on rolling lands. If ihr
lines ot level are not alr ady run
they may be quickly marked oat
ahead of plow s by the 'careful use
of almost any ot the cheap levels
now adveilised. An instrument
that depends upon a spirit level for
its adjustment is much more accur
ate aud reliable, and will give bet
ter results in the end. The rale is
to locate the terraces at such a dis
tance that each will be three feet
in perpendicular beiaht above the
next below. A good swivei, or re
versible hillside plow, is very de
sirable. though not indispensable,
in throwing up the soil tor the
foundation of the tei races Per
fectly levtd lines at the start and
caretul strengthening of the weak
places by the use of hoes or shovels,
will assure the final stability ot the
terrace banks. Breaks are apt to
oocjr Irom very heavy rains during
the fiist year; but by prompt re
paira and occasional changes of lo-
catiou, the system may become per
fectly establ shed and prove a great
protection in the coarse of a few
years at most.
FENCING.
There are still many large sec
tions and even entire States where
farmers are required (and content
to do so) to keep op long strings of
fences for the protection of crops
against stock. The time is rapidly
approach!og when the so-called
"Stock law” will be generally adop
ted. and the farmers of the fotnre
will wonder that farmers ever sab-

MAKING MANURE AND COMPOST.
Where labor is abundaur and
costs hut little, the- old-time prac
tice of hauling leaves and straw
from the woods near by and tilling
t he stalls and stables is good Fai -
mers generally appreciate the great
advantages of composing. The
tru'hisoueof the chief advanta
ges of composting is that it involve'
the necessity tor collecting the
crude materi ils that might other
wise g * to waste, and incorporat
ing them in*o the heap. If the
same materials that are available
for compo>iug b.* colL cted and dis
tributed sepai ately in the soil no
great advantage would appear in
composting them if the cost of
handling bo justly estimated. In
putting up a compost heap the pro
portion of crude home materials,
such as cotton seed, stable manure,
scrapings etc., to the purchased
elements—phosphate ot lime and
potash salts—is ot no special im
portance. These vanouss material
vary so much in degree ol concen
tration and practical manurial val
tie that it would be impossible to
make a rule that will H.ways apply.
L t the farmers ol a neighborhood
club together aud buy acid phos
phate au*i potash salts, exchange
co ton seed meal when good terms
ore offered, each farmer buying as
much as he may judiciously. Let
the amd phosphate be in proportion

eight hundred pounds of cotton

pounds ol the mixture per acre
Now mix them with the cruder ma
terialsaccording to availobie quanti
ty and when ready tor use distri
bute according to the propbrtiou
suggested, or so as to go over tue
euura area to be cultivated.
it should be remembered that as
a principle it does not pay the best
to manure a few acres very heavily
aud leave the main expanse ot the
farm w tb little or no manure. A
more equal and impartial distribu
tion will bring the larger . ggie-
gate of final y ie dsaud profits, in
teu-ive farming, as a system, ex-
dunes entirely the cultivation ot

(Kev. J. K McKaiu in the Soullieru Cnris-
tian Advocate )
We arrived in safety and good
health a'the parsonage at Lydia,
December 15th. Both Indies and
gentemen were in waiting at the
parsonage and gave us that open,
free and hearty welcome so charac
teristic of the refined and cultured
Christian people of this section, to
a comfortable home, a warm dm-
u-r, with larder and closet supp’d* d
tor days to come with hams, flour,
butter, sausage, pies, chicken. &. ;
and still they come, not by the
pound, hitt by the whole hog!
Well, we have made up our minds
to bear such treatment both grace
fully and thankfully, aud pray
God’s richest blessings to rest ever
more upon the cheerful and appre
ciative donors. Having but three
appointments on this charge, I was
enabled to preach at|them all before
Christmas, and receive a hearty
welcome all round. Our chnrch
edifices are fine and comfortable,
and the cemeteries are kept in su-
pei b order. The stewards met on
tbe27tb December to arrange the
commissary department. I found
them in the possession and enjoy
ment of the blessings of intelligence
and spirit of liberality. In fact,
Mr. Editor, they are all bro«d be
tween the eyes, which is indicative
of bioad views aud liberal contri
butions and integrity of purpose to
meet tbelr^blightionsto the Church.
May their like greatly increase in
the eatth. Itoads fine and level.
Lands are rich and produce oats,
corn and cotton in abundance.
Hogs and horses fine and plentiful.
In fact these people live at home,
and board at the same place. Edn
cauonal advantages are also fine.
I teel constrained to thank
the Lord that one month of
my ministeral life is past in which
I have not beard even one st ul so
much as bint that the preacher and
the heat I en ough’ to pay for all tl e
"Aard times” broaght on by whis

may say about good Bishop Keen
