The card read: "Private Batter. Keep Off the Grass." It is needless to say that the bintwas taken.?New York Journal. ! I (1 A rievolvlujr Steam tMfrcer. f An English farmer is reported to 3 have invented a steam digger which is- . proviug very useful. A London paper snys: The Darby revolving digger, as the new machine is called, can go into any kind of ground, and not long ago | dug up some derelict laud through { which si* horses could not draw an ordinary singlo share plow. While a man a with a three horso plow can only tnrn :> over an acre of laud a day, the digger will do fiotii four to six acres. The beet time to turn over the soil is immediately after the harvest, but, then, every farmer lias all bis-horses employed. If';,, his appliance were avail? ole by biro!* in the neighborhood, the land conld bo j c 3 1 1./4 i ! 1 uug up UiJU it'll luruviauuu. nut m- i frequently the three operations of re- ii moving the sheaves of corn, gleaning v and digging are carried on at the earue * tiuio in t>ho sanio held in Essex, thanks' ^ to this ingenious contrivance. It is in j shape a flat triangle, of about two tons'!' weight, and is attached by means ofJ jside couplings to tbe axles-of a traction engine of six or eigbt horsepower. There are on each of two undersides of the triangle live double diggers, or tines, which aro made to revolve by a series-of cogwheels. The tines cut into the ground down to any depth, from 2 C or 11 inches to tS inches, but tbo earth t; is broken up, nut thrown away, as in the caso of tho ordinary plow. Tbo weeds are left lying ou the top of the " soil, and in the conrse of a fortnight or so are completely decomposed. The cost of turning over au acre of laud by a digger is estimated at 10 shillings, if tho farmer owns the machine, or 18 shillings, if he has to hire it tl Economy of I sintr Fotfmb Fertiliser*. r The economy of nsing potash fertilize 0 era has been investigated at the Dela- I ware station, cud: it is shown that in ! spito of "a decliuo in values of all farm ! products and in spite cf a decliuo of 65 I 0 per cent in the phosphate market the ' muriate of potash has been h&ldfor 15 j years unchanged in quality and in price." In view of this fact it is recom i mended *hat those systems of farming , be practiced which utilize tho latent ! potash of the soil. For this purpose tho ' ^ old fashioned, combination of lime and ; clover is considered especially valuable. | It is suggested that from 7to 10 | bushels of stone lime per aero applied j s with an ordinary grain drill with fer- | ? tilizer attachment will be found as ef- j feetive in many cases as the heavier ap- 1 plications which have besn hitherto ap- ; t< plied. The results of an experiment ; with di.Tereni fertilizer mixtures during 1394-'-on* ewoe* corn, crimson clover, cowpeas, ootar.rv<f red clover are report- S< ed. Aluriato of potusb gave noticeably good results on sweet corn and red clover, and the mixture of muriate of potash and acid phosphate was especially ef- 1> fective on cowpeas. ? i V C Sheriff's Sale. .
