3.h.u.-.- 'A III !f ik I J. J AGRICULTURAL. R. TV. FURNAS, Editor. THURSDAY, JUNE 2, 1870. At Onr Post Again. For six weeks vast we have been giving our personal attention on the farm, planting. During that time we have planted, in the way of trees and tree seed, as follows : 22-5,000 apple grafts, 10,000 cherry grafts, 5000 pear grafts, 50,000 grape cuttings, 10,000 one year old grape vines, 20,000. cur- rants, 50,000 one year old sugar maple, 20,000 soft maple, 10,000 ash leaved maple, 4,000 one year old chestnuts, 175,000 evergreens from six to eigh teen inches high, 8,000 European larch, 2,000 monntain ash, 2,000 black berries, 10,000 willow cuttings for wind breaks, four bushels apple seed, half bushel pear seed, four bushel ash leaved maple seed, half bushel sugar maple seed, half bushel beech seed, half bushel Norway maple seed .fourth bushel buck thorn seed, ten bushel osage seed, one bushel ash seed, four miles 03age hedge, half mile honey Jeenst hedge, and two hundred young beech and sassafras trees. In orchard, 1000 pear trees, 500 apple, 500 crab ap ples in variety, 400 Early Richmond cherries, and 1000 budded peach tiees. Also 125 different varieties of potatoes-We have taken great pains, given personal attention, and flatter ourself that we have a good stand in all that we have planted. "We are pleased to know of Judge O. P. Mason's encouragement in his efforts to introduce fine stock into Ne braska. He sold, recently, two of his yearling colts, out of his "Glencoe" horse, for two hundred dollars each, to a gentleman who takes them to New York. - m m The farmers in this county never had more flattering prospects. Every thing planted this spring looks un usually well. A good stand in all crops, and growing finely. "What rains we have had, have fallen slow ly, giving the ground the whole ben efit. - m Letter from a Lady Parmer; The following is from a lady friend of ours, who has recently turned her attention to farming. It was not written for publication, but as it con tains some good points, we take the liberty of extracting from it, suppress ing names. 2IATC.E GnovE. Xeb. May21,lb70. J Wfi have been living here three weeks, and It seems fully six months. I reel convinced thatfnrmlns is notiny calling! I tak hold, however, with all my might, and do the best I can. H thinks it awful! "We are eight miles from a postotfice, and It seems no living at all to be -without a morning pa .per. "We will have a change In that respect soon, for H is deciding to petition lor a post office on the corner of our farm, and she will be P. M.; and I tell her she am do as. A. D. Jones did when first P. M. of Omaha: need not have an office, but carry her letters In her hat.' Tell Mrs. that we are not wear ing our best clothes new! Mr. and came home on.Thnrsday; bringing from Iowa about forty head of cat tle, and a wagon load of pigs, chickens, tur keys, and two UUleblacl: and tanpups. When the wagon arrived I climbed into it to see what was there, and the pups were asleep In my new milk bucket, and one pig In the new milkpans! Dr. sent me a large tub full of fine shrubbery, which is growing nicely In our front yard. We have a fine location.and will have a nice place. Have four rooms and a kitchen down stairs, and two up. Ve call this place Maple Grove because It sounds welt. There is vol a bush on it ; but we expect to raise a grove sometime, and have named It with that view. mm i vm Horticulture. Our Horticultural friends at Omaha are up and doing, In regard to the coming meeting of the State Horti cultural Society, at that place. The following communication is from James A. Pine, Secretary of the State Gardners' Association, and which we find in the Omaha Jiepub lican. There'll be a good time we'll warrant ; , Omaha, May 24, 1870. ESilor Republican: You are aware that the State Horticultural Society, of which the Hon. J. H. Masters is President, and Robert Furnas Secre tary, contemplate holding a meeting here In June, at which they desire to have as large a display of fruit, flow ers and vegetables as possible. For the honor of North Platte, and the honor and dignity of Douglas County, for the honor, the liberality and the enterprise of Omaha, it is to be hoped the citizens will take hold and help xaake a display worthy of themselves, of the place and of the cause. Omaha can boast of quite a number of gen tlemen, amateur florists and horti culturists, whose private grounds show their good taste and good sense, fc employing a portion of their means in beautifying their homes, and de veloping a love for the pure and love ly. Gentlemen, we want your assis tance. You, as much as any one, will be benefitted in the creating, arousing and turning the minds and hearts of the community In this di tion. The Gardners' Association " expect to provide a hall for the occasion, and furnish the" necessary watchmen to see that the contributions are proper ly taken care of. Persons who desire it will have an allotted space assign ed them, which they can arrange to suit themselves. Of strawberries, especially, we want as large an exhi bition as possible. In addition to all this,, delegates from abroad should be provided for. Those who can and are willing to-take one-, two, three or four persons, for two or three days, will confer a great favor by letting the Secretary of the Association know it, (P. O. box 1053) and handing in their sanies and the number of persons they will keep to-A. D. Jones, Esq. The exact time has not been deci ded upon, but will be the middle of June or after. In addition let me add that there will be a meeting of the Gardners' Association Saturday after noon, May 2S, at 4 o'clock, in the rooms of the Central Union Agricul turists. Let everybody interested in the meeting of the State Horticultu ral Society, attend and assist in matur ing plans for action. Stay in the Country- The frequent letters we receive - from young men in the country, about coming to the-city, and asking rela tive to the chances of employment, advancement, ete'eonstrain us to sav With emphasis,. Stay in the Country'.' And this admonitory advice is found ed upon some actual knowledge of both country and city life and avoca tious the health and competence which the one assures, and the uncer tainties, disappointments and failures attending the other. Onr cities are over crowded, and the present is a most unfavorable pe X.oa to change from country to town life and, occupations, even if such is ever adviseable. In New York City alone, tens of thousands of intelli gent and skillful people are out of ployment, or only living from hand to mouth ; and the times are such that those who depend upon occupa tion in stores, offices and manufacto- jries, are becoming more and more dis couraging. Many wuo navo iamineb dependent upon their labor for support are wisely removing to the country and not a few capitalists and business men are manifesting siirewuness anu foresight by purchasing small farms, or landed estates for their sons, with a view of placing them beyond the temptations and chances, of town life and speculation. And we believe there are at least a quarter-million of people in this city who would materi ally better their condition by going into the country, on farms, or to new and glowing towns in the West, South, &c, where land is cheap and fertile, and labor in demand and well rewarded. Young men, and especially farmers' sons, who are looking city-ward, should carefully consider the chances of success, which, at the best, are poor indeed, as statistics amply dem onstrate and ponder well the life long consequences, of a change from country to city life and occupations. Those looking for employment in newspaper offices, (either as clerks or brain workers) as are many who write us, are particularly cautioned to look before they leap in the tempting but laborious whirlpool of journalism. For in this, as in most city profes sions or trades, there is little or no room except one brilliant success like that of Greely or Raymond, there are a thousand simile failures fail ures that not unfroqnent render their aspirants and families both destitute and miserable. An advertisement for a competent newspaper man would at once be answered oy scores oi eity residents. oualified by long practice occupy the position ; hence how poor tue cliances o: an expenenceu uuuu- Ltryman, unless he posses superior ca pacity, or is uacKeu oy lnuuenuai friends, and the latter can only aid him in starting, for presistent labor, and decided brain power are requisite to achieve even average success in a field so well filled with active compe titors. Let us cite to a case in point. On removing the principle office of the Mural to JSev York, we advertised in a morning paper for an experienced book-keeeper one thoroughly con versant with the newspaper business, etc. Before five o'clock the same day we received seventy-four wrilteu appli cations for the vosition ! Many of these were from menwho had been in business and had failed ; men former ly well-to-do, ifnotrich, butnowpoor, with educated and refined families to support, andthat too, in a city where to live decent requires hard and well remunerated labor, or a surplus of means. And what is true, in regard to Journalism, is, to a great extent, true concerning other professions and branches of business for nearly all the so-called, respectable city avenues for competence, fortune or lame, are filled with industrious, ambitious and presistent aspirants ana competitors. Hence the chances to become Stew arts and Vanderbilts, or Harpers, and Appletons, are indeed few and far be tween. Better far, try Agriculture, which is truly the most honorable and useful, as it is the most natural and healthy pursuit of man. Yes, stay in the country, and avoid the latterv- like change to city life, and from out door to sedentary employment. Re member how few ah ! how very few business men succeed in acquiring and retaining wealth and position, the many fail of securing even a com petency, while thousands who, began life with high hopes and brilliant prospects, annually die in poverty and obscurity. Bear in mind also that the farm is the nursery of health, vir tue and contentment, and that it guarantees competence if not wealth,, while the city, with its avocations, associations and temptations, injures the health, corrupts the morals, and not unfrequently leads to bankruptcy in cash, conscicnc 'and respectability. Avoid the turmoil of the poisonous town by staying in the tranquil, pure, invigorating, life-giving, and sustain ing country. We verily believe that, as a general rule, every young man who leaves the farm for the counter, desk, pli3'sic or law, forsakes a cer tainty for an uncertainty, and as to the extent of that uncertainty, let the idle, starving thousands of our large cities answer. For the above and other cogent reasons, we earnestly reiterate Stay in the country. Rural New Yorker. mi ti Hard Times and their Remedy.. Hard times are now in order. Ev erybody is in debt. The farmer is in debt to the country merchant and other farmers ; the country merchant to the city merchant: he to the east ern merchant, and he to the European merchant. Is there no remedy for this state of things? Is this country always to represent a huge slave plan tation, with capital as the master, the farmer as the held hand, the city laborer as the house servant? There is not a set of men in the Union of equal calibre, and stability of character, that is so hard worked. so coarsely fed, clothed and housed, so poorly paid, and that makes so few complaints as the farmer. He begins his hard toil by the first tint in the eastern sky, and too often the dark ness finds his day's labor still unfin ished. It is no common thing to hear men say : "I am disgusted with larming. I would sell out to-morrow if I could." Now this is a poor show ing for a farmer's life, but the truth had better be told. Farming don't pay. We may talk until we are dumb about making farming attractive and pleasant, but just so long as farmers and farmers' wives are to be made beasts of burden for life, and receive in return such comforts as a city journeyman me chanic would despise, so long will farming be anything but attractive. Is there an y remedy for this state of things? The current answer of wri ters on agriculture will be, "employ more labor, cultivate better, trebble your crops." Suppose you do, what then ? Increase the amount of wheat and you are in a worse condition than before ; the same of wool and of any crop. Contradictory as it may seem, the more you have, the worse vou are off. Localities may have good crops, and do well, provided 'enough others fail, but it is often maintained that all may have big crops and do well. What is to prevent tjie agricultural products of this country from being in the same condition as the wheat crop? The cities want bread cheap. The city press works for it, eternally crying down with the price of agri cultural products, that they may feed their paupers at lower prices, regard less of what it costs the farmers. To-day we see that big crops have run us in debt so that we don't know how to get out. How will it help us to raise-bigger crops? "What shall the farmer do to prevent this state of af fairs? The simplest answer would be to keep out of debtt but the man out of debt getsnomore for his wheat than in, and if he must sell his wheat at the present prices, it will run him in debt in the end. But if the farmers of the whole west were out of debt the case would te diuerent; they would have the- wnoie matter in their, own hands. Suppose that was the case now. There would be no grain moved at less thaa cost of raising, and our full graneries would be a source of wonlfii inemi . . - ..wvw.v. - itu poverty. iiOWSUaUweaCCOmnlisrilJ'a.vy .m3anasH?ul,leis' drooping'ears.andare this desirable end? By abolishing the law for the collection of debt except those debts secured by lem. Kow the eastern merchants can force every bushel of grain out of the coun try at tneir own price, ana leave tne farmer in debt for years to come. Abolish the law for the collection of debt, and in five years the country will owe them nothing. Abolishing this law would make commerce a blessing instead of a curse, When farmers are out oi aeofc mey can say to the cities, "if you can't af ford to pay our prices to feed your mechanics, and manufacturers, send them out in the country and we will feed them for half what you have been charging them, and if they don't charge us no more than they have vou. we will be benefitted as much as they. We only propose to abolish an un just law, and carry out the principle that was starteu years ago, oy goou men, when they abolished imprison ment for debt. So honest man will oppose this. Honest men will say pay as you go. Honest and prudent men will see that this stopping running in debt will put a stop to over trading, and put a stop to over importing. The question of tariffs and free trade would be things of the past. 'Foreign labor could not compete with our labor when placed side by side. With the vast numbers of non-producers unloaded' from our shoulders, we would not need to work more than was necessary, and could give more attention to beautifying our homes, raising fine stock, improving our farms, education, etc. Farmers, let U3 discuss this matter. Nothing can be done unless we stop this eolden river, that is eternally" flowing, and emptying in eastern cities' that makes the rich richer and our selves poorer. How is it that the avails of our labor are so eternally thimblerigged from us by those who do nothing to produce it, but are for ever wasting it? America needs neg ative laws to govern her. Unjust, positive enactments the relics of centralizing power must be stricken from her statute books as speedily as consistent with safety. Then in the great race of life we shall be able to adopt, as a rule, the great and good maxim, "Do unto others as you would others should do unto you." Fok wakd, in Western Journal. m i Corn and Hogs. 'From carefully conducted experi ments .by different persons, It has been ascertained that one bushel of corn will make a little over 101 pounds of pork gross. Taking this result as a basis the following deductions are 'made, which all our farmers would do well to lay up lor a convenient rei errence. That: When corn costs 12 cents per bushel, pork costs 1 i cents per pound. When corn costs 17 cents per bush el, pork costs 2 centsper pound. When corn costs 25 cents per bush el, pork costs 3 cents per pound. When corn costs 33 cents per bush el, pork costs 4 cents per pound. When corn costs 50 cents per bush el, pork costs 5 cents per pound. The following statement sIiowb what the farmer realizes on his corn when in the form of pork : When pork sells for 3 cents per pound, it brings 25 cents per bushel on the corn. When pork sells for 4 cents per pound, it brings 33 cents per bushel on corn. When pork sells for 5 cents per pound, it brings 45 cents per bushel in corn. Good Farming Implements are the basis of success in making tuo farm pay. "Without these, though the soil and climate are favorable, farming in the nine teenth century cannot be made prolitable, as tho basis of all prices is upon that which can bo produced most successfully, with the least labor, in the greatest quantity, on a given amount of laud. 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 cxpcrlenceof centuries. The Canton Clipper Flow will be found the plow combining these qualities in the greatest degree. As Corn Is the staple crop of this section, a good Corn Planter is a desideratum to profitable farm ing not to be got alongwlthout. Suchanone Is Selby's "Union Corn Planter. The next implement is a good Cultivator; such is Par lin's Walking Cultivator. It Is easily man aged, docs its work well, with ease 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 necessary, and no better can be found than Cole's. All of these, together with all the lesser Implements, such as Hand Corn Plan ters, Hay Knives, Forks, Spades, Hakes, Hoes, etc., can be examined and purchased at SHELLENBERGER BRO'S, No. 71, McPher son Block, Brownvllle.
