The Livingston Agricultural Club
hfia rpndered the public a valuable
Rprvine bv its clear and able rejort on
the question of "Abandoning the use
of fences and the enactment of a stock
law,"which appeared in theepteraber
number of your Journal. I regard the
fences, that may besaved by proper
legislation, without decrement to any
intfrp?f .. ah mu&I to one-half of a fair
rpnt of Rome farms, taklncr them as
whole. In other words, relieve South
ern farmers of the present expense of
fencing out Intruding stocx mai
. would have no moralt,right to con
sume, or damage in any way, the
crops grown by any person on his own
land, and you will double the val
ue, of all productive soil. It is obvi
vious that the liigher the tax imposed
to keep stock out of a wheat, corn or
cotton field to make a crop, the less
inducement there is to cultivate the
same ; consequently, tnere is Jess tie
jnand for labor than there would be if
this were removed. The poor, who
now keep a few hogs, loose far more by
.the depreciation of their wages,
whether they work by the mouth
r crop on shares, than they gain by
this untimely free stock range. Stock

full ten times more than it is worth to
the owners. This remark is based on
my own experience, this summer. I
have kept a number or young nogs ior
a neighbor all summer, in a good
clover field, well fenced, for nothing,
because it is far more cheaper for me
to fence them in, one 6mall field, than
out of several large corn fields. It
deed, to fence many fields against
so many small, shad-bellied swine.
Jumping sheep, and unruly cattle,
taxes on common land more than the
use of it is worth. Hence, many mill
ion acres lie out as a common waste,
that would be cultivated, to the incal
culable advantages of all classes and
Interests, if this fence burthen were
taken otf. Then a poor farmer, who
is barely able to pay for fifty acres
and a mule, could plow, plant, sow,
and gather in his crops, without the
wnrlrtnt (inn Tvmnel of
fence beyond what encloses any little
stock he may choose to keep. Give
"this encouragement to buy land in the
South, and defend honest agricultural
industry from all invasion by man or
his beast, and you will soon change
squatters and bad renters into inde
pendent land-holders and conservative
freemen.
It is a mistake, to suppose a poor
laboring man in the South can never
lay up enough money to pay for a few
far more than the great Cinciunatus
had when he was called from the plow-
to save hU country from the greatest
peril.- ; Fence, taxes and all others, on
land, axe now so heavy In the rurtrre
gate that poor men can hardly alford
tinwn iinv.
In New York Stae this onerous
fence, tax does not exist; laboring
men receive a dollar a day as farm
wares. ' Ilere. I hire good men at fifty
cents a dav. There, a farmer makes
fifty tons of hay with less labor than
I can fence a meadow for such a crop.
So long as the poor, unwittingly com
pel farmers to throw away somuch la
Lor in maullns fence rails, their
wages must be low, D. Lee.

see at once, that the estimated expense
Of fencing will not approximate the
actual cost in many instances. This
planter says the cost of keeping up his
fencing exceeds his tax annually.
Some tenants, the squatters and in
habitants of our towns and villages,
who have no means of pasturing their
stock, but depend through the summer
on their grazing upon broom eedge,
' on the old field and commons, would
certainly oppose such a law most
landlords could provide a pasture for
the few cows cf their tenants. But
those who have no land of their own,
such as the mechanics of the country,
and other business and professional
men of the country, and towns, would
' be seriously injured by it, for a short
time only ; for we do honestly believe

be enhanced greatly in value by the
'dense growth of grass which would

cease to ruin it by hunting for the
bramble roots, by throwing up the
clay and making the old field look
like a grave-yard or a battle field.
Steakino Food fob Cows. Mr.
F. C. Eastman, a New York cattle

"TRio Planted This Old Apple
Tree!"
We make the following beautiful
extract from the address of Hon.
Marshall P. Wilder, delivered at
the Twelfth Session of the American
Pomological Society at Philadelphia,
in September last :
What greater temporal comforts can
we leave to our heirs than the fruits
of the orchard and garden I What
more valuable testimonials of a phil
anthropic life than the trees we plant
for future generations ! Trees are the
lcs:t landmarks of a noble civilization.
Trees are a rich legacy to our heirs.
Trees are living monuments to our
enloM to our is0 Th man v.ho
plnt5",? pruit tree is a benefactor of his
rf , s.l'-when we shall have gone
to uar rest, wnen tne irarrance of ver
nal bloom shall no longer delight the
senses, wnen tne verdure of leafy
summer shall no longer inspire the
soul, when the golden harvest of mel
low autumn shall no'Ionger gladden
the sight, the tree shall live to bless
those who shall follow U3. And when,
in after ages, posterity shall recline
under the shade of the trees planted
by our hands, and gather from their
bending branches the luscious fruit,
will not some grateful heart remem
ber the giver, and ask, " Who planted
'nai oia appie tree 7" . now beautiful
'this sentiment portrayed by our
) poet Bryant:
'hat plant we In this appl tree?
-" 8wet for a hundred flowery prints.
To load the May-wind's restless wines.
When, from the orchard row, it pours
Its fragrance through our open doors."
"What plant we In this apple tree?
Fruits that t.hall swell in sunny Jane,
And redden In the Auj;unt noon.
And drop, when Rentle airs come by.
That fan the blue .September sky,
S'hllehlldren come, with cries of glee.
And w?f k them where the fragrant gross

And when the thousands who have
enjoyed its fruits and shared its bless
ings, are buried, like it3 own roots,
deep in the bosom of mother earth
"The children of some distant day,

, 'W ho planted this old apple tree?'"
The Proper Season to Cut Tim
ber. A letter from Dr. B. A. Wright, of
iMaumee unio, appears m the
Xorth Western Farmer, for November
in which the Doctor states that after
several years of experiments and obser
vation, together with what he has
learned from others, he has arrived at
the following conclusions :
To have timber last well, in all
circumstances, and to secure the most
heat material in fire-wood, the best
time to cut in his locality is during
September and October. Timber cut
in these months will be solid and firm;
the sap will mostly dry in the timber,
filling the interstics between the fibres
and growths, rendering the timber or
lumber heavy, shrinking or checking
very little, with a very tenacious fibre.
The sap is in so high a 6tate of con
centration that the heat effects it very
little.
To have timber decay most rapidly
cut it in April, May, and June. This
is the test time to deaden, or cut off
shrubs to have the stumps. rot out
soon.
November, in some seasons and
places, would do well, and even De
cember and January, would be better
than March, etc.
Milk Soured ry Thunder. A
correspondent of the Country Gentle
man expresses the opinion that the
cause of milk becoming soar during
thunder storms is not any mechanical
contusion produced by the noise of the
thunder, but the presence of ozone, a
peculiar modification of oxygen, which
is produced in large quantity by the
action cf electricity in the air.
A Delewarean has a peach orchard
covering 300 acres. From the peaches
raised upon this vast orchard he con
trives to save 60,000 bushels far the
New York market.
We cften hear farmers and others
in this country, say our land is so roll-
It j, :iC need uct talk of draining
lands. This fc? a mistake. We have
thou-rnds of acres of our best lnd3
that will never b9 worth anything un
til they are drained. One-half or our
bottom lands must bo ditch drainea
before they can be made really useful.
Then again, we have lands that re
quire under-draining. .The following
we clip from an exchange:
instances. Nature has
n?.ice an necessary provisions ior wu-
. ' '
vovinn- Awav sumlus water at all sea-
Eoiispfihe year.' On the contrary,
where the subsoil is so compact that
the pores of the surface soil will con
tinue filled with water for several
days after a heavy rain, the evidence
will be conclusive that a regular sys
tem of under-draining would be a val
uable improvement in the manage
ment of that land. When cultivated
fiei-s seem to be a long time In be
coming sufficiently dry to plow, or be
woxked, it is a certain evidence that
the soil can never be cultivated with
satisfactory profit, until all the Surp
lus water can be readily collected and
conveyed away in under-drain.4.
There need be no apprehension that
any injury will ever arise in conse
quence of making a drain where one
was not needed. C3 no drain can draw
away any water from the surface soil
that te really required to promote the
growth of plants. The soil will retain,
by capillary attraction, all the mois
ture that the roots of the plants require
were under-drains made ten feet apart
over the entire field. When water
will stand in depressions so long that
it drowns the soil by saturating every
particle so thoroughly that the parts
flow tn-ethcr like mortar, under-
drains will be found of great advan
tage. Tree Seeds.
Believing the free distribution of
seeds, cuttings, fcc, should be encour
aged, and that it might and will be
done to the mutual benefit of the read
ers of the Hvral World and wishing to
be included in the list of those engag
ed in this commendable work, I will
send on application, seeds of the Sugar
Maple, Black Ash, Honey., Locust,
Hackberry, and last but not least, the
Red Bud,(Ccrcj Canadcsis), ,the most
beautiful of our early flowering orna
mental trees.
Tbe seeds of this tree should be
mixed with moderately moist sand or
soil, and kept in a cellar or cool place,
free from severe frosts and planted in
spring in goood rich soil, will make a
good growth the nrst year.
Thousands of trees have been plant
ed the present year, by our prairie res
idents and landowners, for fuel, shel
ter, grove3, ornaments, et3., and we
hope tho coming year will find them
still more fully awake to their interests
in this matter. Persons wisnmg any
of the above seeds 6hould enclose a
stamp or two to prepay postage, pack
ins: etc. Would be pleased to receive
from others tree seeds or cuttings of
varieties other than the above.

Pevely, Mo.
The above we find in the Jiural
World, and commend the spirit. Our
farmers want to be most obliging to
each other. Such kind acts as the
above will soon result in prood. Let
us follow the example of Mr. Clark.
Ilovr Co Carre and Help at tne
Table.
It Is considered an accomplishment
for a lady to know how to carve well
at her own table. It is noj, proper to
stand in carving. The carving knife
should be sharp and thin.
To carve fowls, (which should al
ways be laid with the breast upper
most.) place the fork on the breast,
and take off the wrings and legs with
out turning the fowl : then cut out the
merry thought, cut slices from breast,
take out the collar bone, cut off the
side pieces, and then cut the carcase
in two. Divide the joints in the leg
or a turKey,
In carving a 6irloin, cut thin slice
next to you. (it must be put on the
dish with the tenderloin underneath,)
then turn it and cut from the tender
loin. Help the guests to both kinds
In carving a leg of mutton or a ham.
begin by cutting across the middle of
tne bone. Cut a tongue across, and
not lengthwise, and help from the
middle part.
Carve a forequarter of a lamb by
separating the shoulder from the . b-,
ana then divide the ribs.
To carve a loin of veal, begin at the
smaller end and separate the ribs.
Help each one toa piece of the kidney
ana its fat. Carve pora and mutton
in the same wav.
To carve a fillet of veal, begin at
the top, and help to the stuffing with
eacn slice, in a breast of veal, separ
ate the breast and brisket, and then,
cut them up, asking which part is pre
ferred.
In carving a pig, it Is customary to
divide it and take oti the head before
it comes to the table as to many per
sons the head is revolting. Cut off
the limbs and divide the ribs.
In carving venison, make a deep in
cision down to the bone to let out the
juices, and turn the broad end toward
you, cutting deep in thin slices.
For a saddle of venison, cut from
the tail toward the other end, on each
side, in thin slices. Warm plates are
very necessary with venison and mut
ton, and in winter are desirable for all
meats. National Agridulturist.

Had 17 ounces of tne Delaware and Catawba been

Dsar Bias : ours or the I8in I am in recelnt nf
In which yon ask II I have any objections to sending
?-ou, for puoucauon, tne mew t am aouainted with,
n relation to the character of the Waiter (erape. I
have never indorsed the character or usefulness ol
vines, or other articl of any description, and would
not at my present stage of life were it not for two
reasons whlcn seem sunicient. first, I know the
Walter Grape will meet the preiudicea widespread
throughout the country, caused by the worthlessness
in most localities of many of Its predecessors. Sec
ond, because I can say from personal observation
that the Walter is the best variety I have had any
knowledge of, and I think I have cultivated nearly
all that have been recommended, discarding them
ail and falling back upon the Concord and Hartford
Proline as vinevard varieties. I am interested in
knowing that the fruit of the Walter rrom lanrer
ench year as the vine grows older, being last year
ruilyone-tnira larger man u was two years ago. it
grows well ; sets fruit well. I have seen it ripe sev
eral times before Hartford, and I have never seen
any mildew on Its fruit or on Its large and thick, but
Delaware shaped fiiliage. The flavor of the fruit I
think superior to any other variety. You say in
rour circular It is a seedling of tbe Delaware and
Diana; I think the character of each of these vane
ties is quite distinguishable In the Walter, particu
larly that of the Delaware. I aisd think it would
make a wine of hlith character. I bave visited It
annually since it first bore, six years ago, three times
in Ulster Co., N. Y., in a low valley, where the Isa
bella seldom ripens, and each time It was fully ripe
In August. I have seen it each of the three past sea
sons in Poughkeeisie, ripening at the same time,
excepting last year, when tbe constant rains pre
vented all varieties from maturing at their usual
time, but it perfected Its fruit by the middle of tep
tember. The raisins of the last mentioned crop I
have seen and eaten, which were good. From its
