153559; on:pageS3 'of the . Country
Gentleman, the-most excellent farmer
and popular writer, John Johnston,
said
"One pint oat and-corn meal mixed-4
dallv. with hav. will make a fine
yearling in'springrand one quart dai
ly through winter; will bring ; two
years:old-in fine condition to grass,
and they will pay far more for grain,
than if the grain had ieen sold Tor
cash. Barley meal, oiljcake1? meal -or
even buckwheat Weal w ill answer.
Try it, farmers, and I am" sure you
will find it pay. A pint a day for a
calf, say for six months, would be less
than three hushels;. but" if you give
foiirpjushelsit-will pay you abundant
ly'fo'r" the grain twice as much as
you could have got in market. It may
not do so every year, but for a num
ber of years I know it will be so. I
know it has been so in my case and
will be so with every one that tries it;
tfutr the great difficulty with manyis
they never think of feeding grain to
either cattle or sheep, until they get
so poor that they are afraid they will
lose them; then it is like feeding
roast pork and beans to a man recov
eringirom a fever ifcwill do harm.
The right way is to begin feeding
grain when the stock is in good "con
dition, and,keej) them improving all
the time.,,
In these few lines is a sermon which
every stock raiser should commit to
memory. Yet I fear not so many
have improved on its teaching as
shuld have done so. -. It-is from good
authority what Johnston don.t
know about stock raising, is not worth
knowing and then it is sound sense.
If we would have our cattle bring us
quick returns, we must Eend " them
along while young; unless we give
them a good start, they will not only
be slow in reaching the period of pro
fit, but they "will never reach the
highest point. JSow is a capital time
to p"uOlr. -Johnston's precepts into
practice.!-- Corn is worth two cents a
pound-an'd oats a cent and a half; and
as Mr. J. says, thereis nothing like
corn and oats chopped together to
give a cow or youngster bone and
muscle heart.
Begin now, brother farmers ;. butter
is high, grain is low. The-feed trough
is the best market you can carry it tc.
A bushel each of corn and oats will
give you 75 pounds of feed clear of
the millerjs, toll and waste; this at 45
centS'for oats and $1.-12 for .corn, will
eost?you1very little over two cents .per
pound. Give each one ofyour cows
200 pounds and the young things a
proportional amount from now to
pasture, and you will have made a
capital investment. Cor. Country

may be of No. 12 which Is sufficiently
strong for. these; as trellis, when it
gives wayat all, always.does so at the
top Iirst. bo long mereiore as me tup
wire is secure the whole trellis is safe.
.Tht'se remarks , of: course apply only
to the wires anil not to the posts.
These latter should be of good size,
considerably larger ;than a heavy
fence-rail and should be set not less
than twoeet imthe ground.
Set the posts py a line drawn the
whole length of the trellis, "selecting
a.straight side on the .post to receive
thewires and placing this in contact
with the line. " Too much care can
jiot be taken in making the trellis as
near straight as possible, so that most
of the labor of .cultivation may be
done with the plow and cultivator.
AUtheposts should be well rammed
of the trellis will soon be out of line.
When the posts are all in line we are
ready for the wires. Bore holes some
thing less than half an inch in diam
eter through or across a corner of each
end post to receive the -wires. This
work can be done rapidly with a bit
stock aud a twisted or auger-bit of the
proper size. There are two common
methods of attaching the wires to the
intermediate posts, namely: by sta-
nles and by nails.- Staples are good
butare somewhat expensive. If they
hare used they should not be driven
quite "home" but left projecting suf
ficiently to allow an easy movement"
ofrthe wire in straining. Nails are
cheaper and answer the intended pur
pose equally well. Eight-penny fence
is the "correct thing" for the lower
nail, that is, the one on which eech
wire is to rest. Drive it at a sharp
angle pointing downwards into the'
post,. and after the' wires are all on,
go over the whole trellis and secure
the wire at each bearing by driving a
shihgle or lath nail above it. In put
ting on the wires, it will be found
most convenient to begin with the
top one, aud strain it before proceed
ing with the others.
The trellis being completed the next
operation will be that of tying the
vines to the wires. If the vines are in
their third summer this is a very sim
ple matter If the horizontal-arm sys
tem is the one chosen, it is only neces
sary to tie the -canes which are to
compose the arms securely, but rather
loosely, to the lower wire. With
those who are accustomed to handle
them, shoots of willow is the favorite
material for spring tying. But there
are many who cannot readily obtain
willows and must therefore substitute
some other material. The cheapest
substitute known the writer is the
threads of gunny bagging. The
wrappings taken from the" bales of
gunny bags, can be purchased for five
or six cents per pound, and when cut
into stips just wide enough to give
the required lencth to the threads for
tying, affording a convenient mate
rial which will last through the
season. Let each man carry a strip of
this cloth slipped under a cord worn
as a belt and he will findit very con
venient to draw, the threads from the
cloth as they are used in tying.

Raising Calves.
- Thereas a common practice among
many breeders, fo allow the calf to
run with the cow for several weeks or
months, and obtain its own food, in
its own way. Especially is this prac
ticed, when men expect a very fine
animal, as in the case, of blooded
stock, when they desire to make the
"most that is possible out of the calf.
The belief is, that the calf will do
better, grow faster, and become a bet
ter animal when grown. There is one
thing to recommend this method, and
and that is, that it is eminently
natural. It is nature's method, and
it is held that we cannot possibly im
prove on that. This natural way of
crettiug. food; is admitted by all to be-
thebestia the case of infants of our
own. genus, and if so for our offspring,,
why not in other, and analogoMs cases?
This is one side of the question
there is another. Experience has
demonstrated Ito my mind it is adem-
-one'tration,) that calves can be as welf
raised apart from the dam
and it is
farTfetler fdrthtf latter to have1 itP'so:
A. enw that is desiuned to milk, will
not vield so much after having sucked
acalf for a while, as she would do,
If "tlie calf had been taken away at the
outset. And she cannot be brought
into the milk yielding condition that
was possible, for her. To keepa cow
up to the largest flow of milk, it is es
sential that she should be milked
j-egularly and clean. This the calf
never does.
The calf should be taken from the
cow immediately, .and the latter
should be milked regularly, aud care
fuUyt and,themilks fed to Jhe calf, or
as much of it as may be" necessary.
Give, the sweet milk as it isdrawn,
up:fcf the'-ninth or tenth milking, and
once between, that is, at noou. When
the milk of the cow is good for use,
begin to feed the calf sweet skimmed
milk, j and the change' from this to
sour miiK can oe easily eneeieu lruone
gradually
The nutritive properties of milk are
but slightly decreased by skimming
off the cream. The cheese is nearly
all left in tho milk, and this contains
far more nutriment than the butter
that is taken away. Calves will thrive
on it, when properly cared for. As
fcoon asjthey will eat it, they should
be given some fine hay, nothing bet
ter than Rowen for this, and they
should be kept warm, dry, and com
fortable. For spring calves It is not necessary
that milk be given them after they
are three, or at the latest, four months
old. Good pasture after that, with an J
abundant supply of pure water, will
make them come on finely; The milk,
however, may be kept up through
the entire summer with benefit, with

From the Western Pomologist
How toIKaiscForest Tree's.
To have success In planting tree
seeds, the following conditions must
be observed c First th seeds must bo
freBh, and then be planted as nearly
as possible in nature's way. She does
not plant them de'ep as people plant
potatoes and corn, but she covers
them, very shallow with a coating of
suriimer leaves, which affords the best
possible protection for the seeds,
which generally germinates success
'fully .with ther warmth of Spring.
Therefore we should bear in mind not
to cover them too deeply. As a gen
eral rule, as deep as the seed is thick
will answer, and then the qovering
should be very light and friable'; leaf
mould, leaves, rotten straw or grass,
or sonie substance. When tree seeds
cannot be planted as soon as ripe,
they can be kept for a time in l early
dry sand, being careful not to put too
large quantities in a mass. It will be
useless to plant seeds of walnuts,
hickories; oaks, ehfc3tnutsf hazle nuts,
and such- like, after they are thor
oughly dry, as they will not vegetate.
Some seeds vegetate as soon as they
fall to the ground, without any cover
ing, whatever ; .among which are the
white elm, -red and silver maple.
Perhaps most failures are to be attri
buted to planting too deep, and on
unsuitable soils. Give each kind of
natural soil as near as can be. The
swamp trees do not grow well on dry
land, and vice versa.
1 will give a list of trees for particu
lar soils, and some directions how to
manage evergreen seeds, whicli are
more difficult to grow than the seeds
of decidious trees.
Trees for Different Soils Evergreens
from Seed. For dry claj- soil : White
oak, red oak, sugar maple, beech, &c.
For wet Clay loam : Burr oak,
swamp oak, of several kinds, linden,
white ash, red ash, black ash, red and
silver maple, honey locust, whiteelm,
hickory, &c.
For dry sandy land: Pitch pine,
red pine, Jersey pine, red cedar, &c.
For"' rich or moist sandy land.:
Black walnut, butternut, hackberry,
hemlock,spruce, firs, magnolia, papaw
buckeye, sweet gum, larch, &c.
The best plan to raise evergreens
from seeds, is to prepare a bed of
sandy loam, (one-half sand, and one
half leaf mould,) on the north side of
a building, or high fence; around it
boards should be set edgewise, so as to.
be a foot above the bed; in this bed
plant the seeds in the fall or spring,
barely covering them. They must
not get too wet or dry. A person can
regulate the moisture or shade by hav
ing narrow strips of boards, not over
two inches wide, to lay on the frame,
leaving space between as required by
the weather, or the whole can be cov
ered with glass or muslin, always giv
ing air to the plants.

Surface Planting of Trees.
The roots of trees generally strike
downward from the surface of the
earth, when there is not some impen
etrable obstruction to hinder their
ramification through the soil.-None
except the" annual feeders near the
surface of the ground are found to
tend upward, as they push out from
the main root or branch of a root. In
case a tree is planted too deep, a new
system of roots will be thrown out
from the stem, one or two inches be
neath the surface of the soil. No
triatter how deeply tap roots and
branch roots may be sent down ward, it
is a habit of fruit trees to produce a
complete: system of roots, rootlets,
fibres and feeders' so near the surface
of the earth, that the countless num
ber of minute mouths may imbibe the
moisture and plant food soon after the
small jarticles begin to descend from
the surface.
A knowledge of the facts warranted
an experiment in planting trees direct
ly onthe surface of the ground. In the
spring of 1843 when I was planting the
first trees for my own orchard, there
were a few palceswhere holes could not
be dug with a spade, aswthe earth-for
several feet in depth was composed
with fragments of slate and small
boulders Neithercould thegroundbe
plowed. A thick and rough sod of
Kentucky blue grass rested, on the
surface; but roots of trees spread
amongtthe stones without difficulty.
Hence, I resolved to try the doubtful
experiment of setting trees without
digging any holes. Stake holes were
first worked down among the stones
with a crow-bar, and stakes were
driven in firmly to support the trees.
The roots were then spread out on
the grassy sod as a tree was held near
a stake, after which a few bushels of
mellow soil were shoveled from a
loaded wagon around each tree, suf
ficient to cover the roots" with about
two inches of mellow dirt. The body
of each tree was then tied firmly to
the stake, and the surface of the
ground Tound about the trees was
mulched with cosrsd, strawy barn-
-yardwmanure, covering an area, of
about eight feet m ammeter, irieces
of boards, old rails and trush were
laid on the mulch to prevent fowls
from removing the coarse material.
Amid the sneers of those who
knew that such a mode of planting
was superlatively rediculous, and
could never" prove satisfactory, I
waited in doubtful suspense, for the
result. The trees that were set in
mellow ground, around which the
surface was clean and free from vege
tation, grew afew inches higher and
broader, while every tree that was set
on the grassy surface, threw, out
branches of good ripe'wood laterally
and vertically from one to four feet in
length. The last season some gentle
men called to learn the secret'or such
a wonderful growth, and measured
the new wood, just before the leaves
had fallen, and found many branches
overfour feet in length... After the
first yea? the branches didnot grow
faster than those on-other trees. Every
tree that was planted on the surface
succeeded in a most satisfactory man
ner, and yielded as much fruit a&any
others. In 1S68 1 saw them bending
beneath a bountiful burden of fruit.
In after years I planted many trees on
tho grassy surface, always with the
most satisfactory results.
On stony fields, Jn rocky dells and
on lawns, where the ground cannot be
plowed, and where disturbing the sod
is objectionable, there is no more sat
isfactory way of planting trees of any
kind, or bushes, than to spread the
roots out on the sod, and cover them
with mellow earth; then mulch the
surface. j "

Therefore the true plan is to keep the

ing this, is to take a keg or barrel, and
pack the eggs on their sides end to end
laying a tier first around next to the
staves, and so continue until a layer is
filled; so on till the barrel is full.
Use oats for packing; jar them down
as much as is required to keep them

ready for market. By rollihg the
barrel about a quarter around every
few days, the yelks of the eggs will
be kept as required. By making
chalk marks across the head of the
barrel, at' richt angles across each
oiho'r. vou will have a guide for roll
ing the barrel as required. When eggs
are packed in large quantities for

found convenient and safe. Cor.

Good Farming Implements are the
basis of success in making the farm
pay. Without these, though the soil and
climate are favorable, farming In the nine
teenth .century cannot be made profitable, as
thebasis of all prices is upon that which can
be produced most successfully, with the least
labor, In the greatest quantity, on a given
amountof land. The first requisite to farm
ing Is a good Plow, one that will scour readi
ly in alL soils, and is made of the best mate
rial upon scientific principles based; upon the
experienceof centuries. The Canton Clipper
Plow will be found the plow combining these
qualities In the greatest degree. As Corn Is
the-staple crop of this section, n good Corn
Planter Is a desideratum to profitable fann
ing not to begot alongwithout. Such an one
Is Selby's Union Com Planter. Tho next
Implement Is a good Cultivator; such Is Par
lln's Walking Cultivator. It Is easily man
aged, does Its work 'well, with case to the
horses, and is durable. In small grain an
Implement Is needed that does Its work well
In all kinds of grain, In all conditions and
positions; one that works as well In grass as
grain, and is of light, uniform draft on the
horses. This means the John P. Manny
.Reaper and Mower. A Stalk Cutter is also
