Louisville Journal AGRICULTURAL tic From the Country Gentleman.! "WIiT Co Tosasr Ilea Lcaro Farm V Ed3. Cci. Gent. Your correspondent Colur.slla answered the question when ha said : " They have aspirations for more h crative business ih&.t farming and he aj correctly" eiplains "the extraordinary unanimity with which liberally educated men quit manual labor." "Such im are filed for and can command more lucrative I...- ... it 1.2 i. j iusincss man xuuin-iug jitm uuy after day as ihe thrifty farmer dees. - I cannot admit the correctness cf the charge that farmers' sons look upon farm labor.a3 humiliating, and desire to escape from it to - engage in some one cf the trades, or professions which he supposes to be more honorable, and confer better .titles to respectability. . The reason why any leave agriculture to engage in the pursuits of professional, mercantile or political life, is nM, in my judgement,-on account of any : supposed respectability which the Jatter.has over the former, but because they open avenues to the more speedy acquisition of wealth, which is the great - Diana of American worship. The farmer partakes, doubt less, of that spirit of enterprise and ad venture which characterized his Norman and Anglo-Saxon ancestors, and is not always proof against the temptation to engage in those speculations in which, if successful, vast fortunes are suddenly ac cumulated. . . Some, however, leave the farm from necessity; its moderate size and limited productions being insufficient toeraplythe hands and supply the wants of all who are born upon it. In thai case, the parents give to that son who seems best qualified by nature to succeed in the learned professions the best education they can afford, and then with a father's blessing nnd a mother's prayers, he i3 sent oift to the world to procure, subsistance and a home, and' if possible to carve a name that shall be held in respect by his fellow men, and fill the measure cf parental pride and expectation. These are the reasons, and not farm labor is looked upon with, disg-ust, why daughter would to carried, and the per plexed father again resorted, to his friend Eikewell for advice, under the new dii culty. Eakewell ' coolly said, hi had watched hi3 proceedings, and seen their results ; he must do in this r";3 h3 had dona before; he must give up another fourth cf his farm, and 1; ?ep the original capital and stock. The father seemed somewhat puzzled, but as the first experi ment had succeeded, he determined to try it in thi3 cas also. Last cf-all tha youngest daughter was to be married, and in utter despair, tne poor ntner rr ui another visit to Dishley to es'hia hi3 errhxity. "Well." said Eakewell, ": : me honestly, whether your income hs diminished by having reduced your farm by one-half ?" The father acknowledged h:: : cr e. to leave thsir five: chance for ancihcr lay i-suinr from tve, Idays, in which c.-e has tc:.i known to iz. . : c:i iL t after the first, and I wcul J net in least be surprised to team that th3ys tirr.es must trcm necessity issue much sooner. My !0 .. ... ..i tncu; '-'Ill rcascrt for sentm tnese excenticns is inai 3 ,3 ! ., or- he . thought it had not. "Then," said Eakewell, "you must give up another fourther of your farm, and keep pur house and the remaining. 2,50 acre3 for yourself, and, to tell you the truth, you will then have just such a farm as your stock, your capital, and your head are fit for, and will "be a better and happier man than ever." Old Bakeweli used to tell this story with great glee, and declared his friend left as much slock and capital upon the 250 acres as he had ever had upon the one thousand, and, as he be lieved, made a better income out of it. This may be a somewhat exaggerated statement, but cf this I ani sure:, a small, well-cultivated farm, will make a better return than a large ill-cultivated one. c,7," ruh. O - t . From the Country Gentleman. Best Time to Drlrc Eecs- Messrs. Editoss In your issue cf May 24th, I notice an article headed as above, over the signature cf R. C, in which, to my surprise, I perceive that the writer - and myself differ in opinion in reference to the best time for driving bees. ' Now it cannot for a moment be doubted but that this writer has had every opportunity for ascertaining the best time for driving bees, for he states he his had the Langstroth movable comb hive in' use for several years. It sometimes so hap pens, . however, that although a person may have ever facility for making obser vations, there is a possibility cf his fa.ll- j rn i r try prTOT fc"? fr ITT re- t :77 mat tne tenin cay r.itcr mo i;;u? ci ti: first swarm is net t!.2 best thr.e f:r crir- ing bees with the least poisitl-? is claimed by R.

I c " . : ; ( -v.vn .;nc. ry a Hen, ial:ai cf t hi so doir ha 3 mad? a:2e::: n, in wh::h I certainly cannot a quiescj, namely: "It seldom ccejrs that she (tl een) is hlcr than two cV.yj after the i.rit swarm issues, i:i emerir. from her cell." Can it be possil!? that bees in cr near Eahimer : manare their affairs so dhTerently from thes? ia West ern New York? I cannot fcr a moment harbor the idea, and therefore most state that queens do not cn an everz em err: from their cells until the seventh cr e;;h;h day after the issue cf the frst swarm. and also on an average slie dce3 not corn mence to lay until the seventh cr eighth day after she emerges from her ce!1. Allowing three days for tho eggs f.nt deposited by the new queen to batch, srvl we have at the lowest estimate from thj issuing cf the swarm, eighteen days in tervening, within three days cf the ln time for "driving." Now should ' bees be driven on th? "tenth day" ni: .; the first swarm. issues, there would I: i los3 cf nearly, if not quite, six thousand chrysalis cr maturing bees about enj third cf a good sized swarm, ,1a th) numerous instances in wh'.h I han? driven bees cn the 21st cr '221 day, I seldom found any larva?, ar ' oasicnallv but very few eggs, sho win - cr.

Suppose, fcr instance, sho commences to lay cn the 15th day, cr. the 21st there will be I t a very few cr3 hatched, and certainly no larva? sealed'. 'l am almost persuaded to beliere that the eggs and larvr? would fc? sacrificed,. cvn hi. I mercantile ch::l:shir ac- i Nevertheless, the farmer i3 perhaps not wholly insensible to the promptings of a lofty and honorable ambition which finds appropriate theatres for its exercise in the representative hall3 and senate chambers of the State and nation. This is doubtless more fortunate than otherwise, for those renovating and con servative elements that give purity stability and vigor to the institutions of learning and religion, of law and medi cine, of trade and commerce; are mainly drawn from the agricultural portion of the people; and when the human tide that rolls in from the farm-houso to mingle with the streams of professional, commercial and political life shall cease, these institutions will have passed their culminating point, and decay be written upon the crumbling monuments of human greatness. "The tendency of increased education to produce an increase of manual labor," is natural, and in accordance witb the upward instincts of humanity, for labor performs iis lowest office when it provides the means of sustaining physical life, and only perfectly exhibits the wisdom cf its Great Ordainer, when it leads to the de velopment of that intellectual arid mortal nature, Which constitutes the real of man. Labor, in and of itself, mere mindleas toil, such as the horse and the ox perform, always has been, and always will be, con sidered degrading, and the ingenuity of man since his creation has been, and to the end cf time will be, tasked to soar abore it, and to live without it. L. Chahdter. Ball. Hoosick Falls, X. Y. targe and Small i&mii The following anecdate of Bakeweli has been told before, but ijever in better form, than in a lecture by Mr. John Beasley, just published at London : The late Mr. Bakeweli, of Dishley. was not only an eminent agriculturist and breeder of stock, but a very wise and shrewd roari, and his neighbors' were in the habit of resorting to him for counsel and advise. On one occasion an eld friend went to pay him a visit, for the purpose cf explaining to him hi3 position, and at the same time begging that he would recommend him what to do. He had lived all his life upon his own farm of 1000 acres ; he lived very well, but he had never saved a shilling.' He had three daughters, and the eldest was about to be married ; he highly approved of the match, but the intended husband expected some portion, and he had nothing to give him. Should he mortgage his estate, or what should he do ? Mr. Eakewell begged of him to spend the night with him, and promised, the next morning to give him the result of his cogitations. Accordingly, the next morning, when they met at breakfast, Eakewell said, "I have made up my mind what you ought to do ; give your son-in-law orie-fourth cf the farm, keep the remaining three fourth with it. Do it better than you have hitherto done, and your income will In rather increased than : diminished." His friend followed his advice ; but at the end cf two cr three years, another ' - ...... - k A J j ...... .t .faciiiti-s - ith my contemporary for ascer taining facts in reference to the best time for driving bees; and hence, after con siderable experience in driving, and much careful "reflection," I feel compelled to restate, that the 2st or 22J day after the issue of ihe frst swarm is ihe best" time io secure ihe least possible waste. The above may be regarded as a gene ral rule, in giving which I make no ex ceptions,, as exceptions tend to confuse rather than be of any practical benefit to the inexperienced. There are, however, two exceptions, and as some inquisitive yankee may wish to know what they are, 1 willingly give them, together with a few remarks on each, so that whenever any bee-keeper deems it to his advantage to profit by them, he can do so: The first of which that I shall notice is that ivhen the queen dies in the latter part cf spring from oi l age the second, when the first swarm is retarded from issuing by foul weather. In the former case, if then queen die3 late in spring, leaving pleniy of eggs deposited in worker comb, the bees seeming to possess an instinctive fore-knowledge of the fact; frequently make the same pf eparaticrii for fearing queens as for natural swarming, evident ly for. the purpose of replacing her loss, for they are seldom in a proper condition for s. vanning when thus engaged in rear ing queens. Queen3 thus reared and also those feared artificially, sometimes hatch within only a few hours, cr minutes even, cf each ether. I am convinced of this latter fact from observations in my own apiary, and also from the following circumstances: - A few weeks since, while cri ri, visit to Mr. Parson's apiary of Ligurianbees, at Flushing. Long Island, Mr.-Langstroth and myself early one evening found in a nucleus engaged in raising Italian or Ligurian queens, one just emerged, which by the way, was the first hatched queen of this well know importation. As there were two more queens nearly ready to emerge," we took away the hatched queen from the nucleus, so that the others would not be destroyed. . Early the next morn ing the nucleus was re-examined, and there was found another hatched cueen the other in the cell ia th'3 meantime was destroyed. There - is no reason to doubt but this last cueen hatched within a very short tima after the first rorhaps not to exceed two tours. Now I tnd that bee3 occasionally act very singularly in deed, especially whenecg3ged inrearis'' queens, to replace the loss cf the eld one. I remember one instance, last season, of the first hatched queen leaving the hive accompanied by p. greater cr less quantity cf bees, when in reality the the colony was not in a proper condition for sparing a swarm. . Whether in this case the queen issued for the purpose cf impregnation, or to accompany tne swarm, I am not prepared to state. Now I ven ture .to predict that either thii wis ae tually the casa with the colony spoken cf by R. C; or as the season in cr near Baltimore is considerably earlier than ia Western New York, it may possibly be long to the latter "exception," which i3 a3 follows: Oa account cf excessive bad weather, first orrarms are c-uita rciueiint that nothing has been said concerning the issuing of second swarms, which would delay the laying cf the remaining queen nearly three days, and therefore r-o er:r;3 would be deposited until the l$th, and" by the 21st only a few eggs would bs hatched. To conclude, I would say that as it requires 21 days fcr eggs laid in worker cells to produce bees, and as seven day 3 is re quired after the first swarm issues lefcre there is a hatched queen, it is obvious that the 14th day i3 the test time to drive the bees to save the maturing breed, in stead of the "tenth." This applies to the first "exceptions." As the queen in the second "exception" issues three days before the first emerges from h'er cell, the lGth or 17th day is the best 'time. I "doubt not" that R. C, "upon further re flection or examination, will icclir.? to" the opinions herein set forth. ' ' , M. M. Baldhiege. From tbe Indiana Farmer. Xeiir Varieties or FrciU ana Flo tt ers. We overheard a gentleman make a re mark, a day or two since, which gave U3 much occasion for reflection, and 33 tha mention of the remark, together with an outline of the nature of our rcfit-cticni, may be productive cf some good to hor ticulturists, we give them room here. The gentleman had been asked toj:;a in a club for the purchase cf a few fhrj cf the Austin .Seedling Strawberry, at the club price, costing about twemy-iTVo tents perplrnt. II13 answer was: "Thero will be enough to buy them and try them and if they are as geel as they are rep resented to be, I can get plants enongh ct them in a year or two. for next to no thing." Now, wa3 this just and gener ous? Yet itis the the plan and'polioy pursued by one-half cf the horticulturists ef the country. : Men cf energy and spirit, who take some pride in advancing the horticultural interests cf the ccan try, must put. themselves to trouble ani expense, and when a good result h at tained, others step in and enjoy the good results equally with th.3 original czperi nienier.
