MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YORKER: AN AGRICULTURAL, LITERARY AND FAMILY NEWSPAPER. 
Finally— The free use of lime as application 
to the soil “enriches the father hut beggars 
the son.” It is the cause of a vastly increased 
produce: it is not in itself a manure, but its 
power and action upon the soil extracts the 
very “ soul of vegetation,” converting not on¬ 
ly manures but the ingredients of the soil itself 
into living vegetables. 
The Shropshire Downs. —The best sheep 
at the Birmingham Show, were of this new 
breed. The Mark Lane Express says “ The 
sheep, however, above all others peculiar to 
Birmingham, is the Shropshire Down, one of 
the most useful varieties we have, and that is 
daily growing into repute. One of the great 
secrets of the sheep-breeder is this improving 
or enlarging on the frame of the pure South- 
down ; and we can only say it has been most 
successfully attempted by ‘ the proud Salopi¬ 
ans.’ It is being more boldly tested with oth¬ 
er breeds, as some very excellent pens of cross¬ 
bred sheep bore witness to. They were all 
Downs on one side, crossed with the Leicester, 
Cotswold, and Oxfordshire Long-wools; the 
most successful being with the Cotswold.’

MANURE AND ITS APPLICATION. 
Eds. Rural You invite further discussion 
on the subject of manure and its application 
to the soil. Your correspondent “ G. F. W.,” 
in the Rural of January 27, gives some valu¬ 
able suggestions; but it is a subject ol such 
vital importance to the farming interest, that 
there cannot be too much written or said re¬ 
specting it. Manure is the food of the land . 
Give our fields a sufficient supply, and we shall 
never have to call them worn or run out. 
Now, is it not a fact that one-half, or even 
more, of the manure made in many a farm¬ 
yard never becomes available for a field crop ? 
And why ?—Because it is suffered to deterio¬ 
rate and evaporate before the plow turns it 
underneath the sod. 
Different soils will admit the application of 
manure in different forms, but the principle of 
its preparation and preservation being under¬ 
stood, it can be afterwards applied as needed. 
It has been recommended by first-rate scien¬ 
tific farmers to haul on all manure in the 
spring, and turn it under in a green state! 
This, as “ G. F. W.” justly remarks, answers 
well for corn if the season proves wet, and 
indeed must be resorted to when the land is 
too poor to produce a crop without it, or 
when there is not a tough old sward to plow 
in ; but in seasons of drouth, the fresh manure 
decomposes but slightly, and is, therefore, only 
to a small extent, available for the crop ; still, 
as it is in the land, succeeding crops will reap 
the benefit, and it is a custom extensively 
practiced. But the plan I would recommend 
is, never, if possible, to carry manure from the 
yard in its unfermented state. When properly 
decomposed, it is immediately available for 
any crop to which it may be applied. It 
made in the open yard, it should be piled in 
large heaps in the spring, and covered with 
muck or mould two feet deep. Then in a few 
weeks shovel it over and cover as before. That 
is sufficient to decompose it thoroughly. There 
it is by the first of September, ready for 
application to the wheat land—(or late in the 
season to mowing meadows) or, better still, 
to apply to the land intended for corn, and 
plowed under in the fall; or, if more conve¬ 
nient, it can remain until the spiing, then 
hauled to the corn land and plowed under. By 
this method there will be less loads to cart 
out, but of a better quality, and retaining all 
its original richness—(for the covering with 
earth has prevented the escape of ammonia 
and other gases)—and in a state of instant 
adaptation to the nourishment of plants, be¬ 
sides being free from seeds of weeds. 
Where, however, manure is made under 
cover and preserved in cellars, it may in many 
cases be advantageously carried to the field 
and plowed in immediately. There, as it 
slowly decomposes, it will benefit many crops, 
and nothing has been lost; but to let manure 
lie on the yard unprotected for a year or more, 
and then apply it to the land and expect to 
see great results, is about as reasonable as to 
feed an ox on straw r and expect to fat him. 
Farmers need to be made aware of the ex¬ 
tent of loss to which a bad management of 
this, their capital, subjects them, for although 
lying at the foundation of success, few there 
are who seem to think anything about it. 
I cannot agree with your correspondent that 
it is well to mix ashes with barn-yard manure, 
although, if well covered, it might not hurt it 
much. Plaster is doubtless a good thing.— 
Neither should I apply much manure to the 
wheat crop at all. Instead of a rotation of 
corn, barley or oats, and wheat, with manure, 
which involves much labor in putting in the 
wheat, I should say, plant corn (with manure,) 
then barley or oats, and seed down to clover, 
and turn in a crop of that as manure tor 
wheat and for permanent improvement to the 
land. A ‘ H - u *

EFFECTS OF SNOW ON WHEAT. 
Eds. Rural: —The Winter thus tar has been 
marked by two severe snow storms, followed 
by high winds, which have piled up banks of 
snow behind almost every fence and under the 
brow of every hill. The first of these storms 
was succeeded by continued warm weather, 
which soon melted these banks from the fields, 
and thus did little or no damage to the wheat 
crop. In a few instances, however, the banks 
remained until after severe cold weather came 
on again. Freezing at night and thawing in 
the day time packed the remaining snow so 
firmly that the wheat in some fields received 
damage therefrom. The cause and effect in 
this instance were clearly visible,—so clearly 
that were no theory established that could 
demonstrate the problem, any person of ordi¬ 
nary intelligence would solve it by a simple 
remark—that air is absolutely essential to the 
preservation of all vegetable as well as animal 
life. At harvest time these spots will be over¬ 
grown with weeds unless care is taken to ex¬ 
terminate them. The present storm is more 
violent than the former and the snow banks 
are much larger. The season of the year 
leads us to expect that many wheat fields will 
be more or less injured by the same cause. If 
the cause is not removed, the same effect will 
follow, unless measures are taken to ward it 
off. 
This may be done very effectually in the 
following ways: First, when the banks are 
very deep, take a good sized, round stick, well 
sharpened, and drive holes through the snow 
to the ground, at the distance of about eight 
feet apart. The object in perforating the 
banks with holes, is readily seen to be, to sup¬ 
ply the young plants with fresh air, that they 
may not smother. When the banks are not 
deep the same object may be accomplished by 
driving a yoke of oxen through them. Upon 
reading this, many may ask, will it pay ? I 
answer, it will, in appearance if not otherwise 
What farmer is so devoid of taste, and so lov¬ 
ing of ease, that he would not willingly devote 
a few hours to preserve the fruits of his own 
labor, rather than see his field of “ golden 
grain” disgraced by an unseemly thistle patch 
or by “ obnoxious weeds” which it will take 
more time and labor to rid himself ol than to 
prevent.

FARMERS, LIFT AT THE WHEEL. 
Mr. Moore :—I was well pleased with the 
views of your correspondent, Mr. Garbutt, 
on the subject of the readers’ and patrons’ of a 
paper contributing toward its usefulness. 
There is no man who is endowed with suf¬ 
ficient grace to take, read and pay for a paper 
devoted to his own business and calling, but 
has learned and treasured up something in the 
course of his experience, that would be valuable 
to his fellow laborers in the vineyard of life. 
It seems to me that a man must be “ green” 
indeed, to swallow everything you, or your 
correspondents say, and take it all for gospel 
truth. Different minds have different views, 
and where an intelligent reader sees, or thinks 
he sees, an error on any subject he is familiar 
with, it is his bounden duty to point it out, 
and set the matter right. They can do this, 
for the farmers are not quite all know-nothings 
—at least on agriculture. 
Truth is said to lay at the bottom of a well, 
and it is often hard for one hand to draw it 
up ; but two or three joined on one subject, 
will generally fetch it to the light of day. 
It is, at least, charitable to suppose that it 
is drawing pretty hard on an editor’s bank ot 
knowledge, to be obliged to furnish every week 
for years, three or four columns of interesting, 
readable matter, and that, too, shut up in a 
7 by 9 office—not ten times in a year, per¬ 
haps, seeing a tree larger than a cabbage, or 
a plowed field bigger than an onion bed. In 
fact, I have often wondered that you get along 
as well as you do. 
Therefore, I call on farmers to do their 
duty, and come up to the help of the Rural. 
I feel as though, if I had the agricultural 
experience, and the knack of communicating 
it as well as many of you, I would be at it 
these long evenings—at any rate, till I had 
told what little I knew. A Mechanic.

CONDENSED CORRESPONDENCE. 
“ CHEAP DOOR-YARD FENCE ” IMPROVED. 
Eds. Rural :—I would like to give a finish¬ 
ing touch, to “A. B.’s” cheap door-yard fence. 
It is this:—Instead of hunting up, drawing 
and drilling the flagstone for the foundation, 
(which, in most localities would be a difficult 
matter, and in all, quite a tax) dig a hole once 
in six or eight feet, say one foot deep, and from 
four to six inches in diameter, into the centre 
of which set the iron rod ; then, with gravel 
and water-lime, make a cement,- and fill the 
hole ; keeping the rod perpendicular of course, 
and raising the cement above the ground, 
around the rod, in the form of a sugar loaf. 
Having set your posts, prepare your lower 
rail as directed by “A. B.,” and drop it over the 
posts; but instead of letting it down as low, 
stop it one foot from the ground. Now, bore 
the top rail two-thirds the way through, and 
place it on the heads of the posts, which will 
help preserve the timber ot this rail, and when 
the pickets are nailed on, will sustain the low¬ 
er rail. The length of the rods will depend 
upon the height of the fence—the pickets 
should reach above the top rail ten or twelve 
inches. A base-board can be put under the 
bottom rail, as well as with wooden posts, by 
using four wrought nails at each standard, 
two at the bottom, and two at the top of the 
board, driving one upon each side, and clinch¬ 
ing them round the post. They in this man¬ 
ner will set under the rail, which will project 
over the base in the form of the watpr table. 
The four square rail fence, can be built on the 
same standards.—R. B. 0., Cooper's Plains,

POULTRY.—IMPROVED BREEDS, &C. 
Messrs. Eds: —In the Rural of Jan. 20th, 
“ Brahma” carries the idea that the poultry 
business is rather dull, and the fever has abated 
considerably within a few years past. I am 
glad to hear that this is so, and think it will 
require considerable effort to get it to such a 
height again. 
The fact is (as he intimates) speculators 
have deceived the public by selling common 
fowls for foreign varieties, and many of these 
of quite an inferior class. It has only been 
necessary to name them Black, Buff, White, 
Silver-Gray Brahmas, Shanghaes, or Cochins; 
or some other sounding name, to secure pur¬ 
chasers. The fever was high, and the excite¬ 
ment an unhealthy one, but people now have 
their eyes open for such deceptions. This, in 
my opinion, is one cause of the quiet state of 
the fancy poultry business. 
Another cause is, that the foreign breeds do 
not appear to be as hardy as our native varie¬ 
ties—many complain of their lack of health 
and vigor. Why is this ? Are they bred un- 
skillfully, or is the climate unsuited to them ? 
I think the latter may be the cause, but am 
not certain. My opinion, however, has led me 
to try crosses of the Shanghai with native 
fowls, and 1 have in this way produced larger 
and handsomer fowls than those I bought for 
pure bloods,—and 1 think they will prove 
much hardier. 
Few farmers pay much attention to raising 
fowls, for they find it does not pay at the prices 
they usually receive. Near cities one might 
probably do well, but were farmers generally 
to go into it extensively, the market would 
soon be glutted, and the profits much less than 
that from many other branches of farming 
business. Such are my opinions; perhaps 
longer experience may modify them. If so, 
all right.—N. S., Castile, Wyoming Co., N. Y. 
DAISIES IN PASTURES AND MEADOWS. 
Messrs. Eds. —A correspondent from Cat¬ 
taraugus County enquires for a remedy to cure 
the “ yellow daisy.” Mr. A. B. Dickinson, 
in his Agricultural Address at Wellsboro’, 
Pa., assured us that the free use of plaster, 
combined with keeping the cattle off your 
mowing lauds, will cure the evil. Close pastur¬ 
ing, late in the fall and early in spring, he said 
was the cause of many meadows being over¬ 
run with “ butter-cups”—and not, as they gen¬ 
erally supposed, that the grass ran out. The 
white daisy is a plant of another kind, much 
more obstinate in retaining a footing, if once 
established. Nothing but thorough plowing, 
and never allowing a single plant to ripen its 
seed, will prove effectual. I would suggest 
burning over the patch where they grow, by 
cutting them down, and when dry adding some 
light combustible to make the fire hotter.— 
This would probably destroy them. At all 
events, it is easy to try, at the proper season.

ABOUT MOWING MACHINES. 
Mr. Moore :—I am often asked by letter 
from persons residing in Pennsylvania, which 
is the best Grass Mower, where made and sold, 
and at what price. Answer for me through 
our invaluable Rural New-Yorker. Per¬ 
haps it may be the means of adding to my 
club of subscribers, already numbering some 
thirty all paid in to you. I remain your con¬ 
stant subscriber.— C. H. Witmer, Suspension 
Bridge Mills, N. Y., Feb. 5, 1855. 
It is often difficult to answer inquiries as to 
which is the best Mower, Reaper, &c., from 
the fact that there are so many before the 
public, and being introduced — and, beside 
there is frequently a difference of opinion 
among good judges. In this case, however, 
we can respond with little hesitation. There 
are several good Mowing Machines in use, but 
we believe the palm is generally accorded to 
Ketchum’s, manufactured by Howard & Co., 
of Buffalo, N. Y. It has been used for sev¬ 
eral years, and continues popular—the best 
evidence of merit, if not superiority. The 
price is from $110 to $125. 
Sweet Potatoes. —Will you, Mr. Editor, 
or some of your contributors, inform me how 
sweet potatoes may be preserved during the 
winter V I packed mine away last fall with 
pine beards in a warm cellar, but they have 
nearly all rotted. I would also like to know 
what manurial application is best suited to the 
sweet potato, and also the best mode of culti¬ 
vation?—G. A. B., King Geo. Co., Va., 1855.

What is Wanted in a Horse. —This is 
well stated in the Transactions of the Ononda¬ 
ga Co., Ag’l Society, in substance as follows : 
Horses are wanted, first for speed on the road, 
second, for conveying heavy loads quickly.— 
For the first they have no competitors among 
our domestic animals ; for the second none but 
the ox and the mule. Either of these is kept 
at less expense, less risk, and less care. The 
horse compensates this increase solely by his 
speed. Celerity and power united, sum up in 
two words the peculiar requisites of the horse. 
We find, in looking over an old volume, that 
in the statement of the committee on Farm 
Management for the New York State Agri¬ 
cultural Society for the year 1847, it is men¬ 
tioned that alLthe competitors for premiums, 
with the exception of Mr. Delafield, preferred 
using manure in its long, or unfermented state, 
while the latter preferred using it after it had 
rotted. Now, in our opinion, one cord of 
long or unrotted manure will be found to pos¬ 
sess a value far superior to a cord of the same 
after it has rotted down to the state of muck 
or short manure ; and this opinion we think 
is clearly indicated by both theory and prac¬ 
tice. During the process of decomposition, a 
very large proportion of ammonia will be re¬ 
leased, and escape into the atmosphere, thus 
depressing the mass of one of its most efficient 
manurial agents, and of course greatly dimin¬ 
ishing its value as a stimulant of the soil and 
crops to which it is to be applied. Besides 
this important loss—for an important one it 
undeniably is—the saline matters will also be 
separated and washed into the soil where it is 
allowed to remain during the decomposition. 
But we ascertain from the answers given by 
Mr. Delafield to the interrogatories of the in¬ 
vestigating committee in this case, that he ob¬ 
viates these evils, successfully, by covering his 
manure heaps with a stratum of loam or muck, 
which not only prevents the wastage of the 
of the valuable saline matters contained in the 
former, but secures the gaseous product of am¬ 
monia by absorption; thus preserving both 
and adding, also, at the same time to the bulk 
of his manure by the enrichment of the muck 
or loam, which is transformed into an excel¬ 
lent stimulant by the diffusion of the volatile 
or gaseous products of the decomposing mass. 
This plan has, doubtless, its advantages, and 
managed thus, short manure may be as valua¬ 
ble as long. As commonly managed, it is not.

RAISING CALYES-A NEW METHOD. 
W hile on a short visit to the farm of M. 
Crowell, of this town, a few days ago, our at¬ 
tention was drawn to a plan of raising calves 
for early sale, which to us, in this section of 
the country, has the appearance of novelty, and 
and seems worthy of the consideration of stock 
growers. 
Mr. Crowell took his calves (all heifers) 
last spring, and commenced feeding on sour 
milk to a few days old, keeping them on the 
same kind of food during the summer, taking 
good care to feed them uniformly, but not 
very abundantly, so as to keep them growing 
thickly without forcing them too rapidly. In 
the fall they were put in the stables, and fed on 
hay, and a little meal, increasing the quantity 
of the latter gradually, with a view of fitting 
them for “ beef” in the spring at one year old 
or a little under. 
These ten calves look like young oxen, and 
are estimated to weigh about 300 lbs. each, 
alive. They will probably be sent to market 
soon, say next month, when we shall see how 
such beef will sell, and it will be relished by 
the lovers of good eating. For ourselves we 
should hardly find it in our hearts to decline a 
dinner from one of the best of them. We un¬ 
derstand from Mr. C., who is making this trial 
by way of experiment, that he is quite satis¬ 
fied thus far with the present attempt to raise 
beef in one year, that he intends to renew the 
experiment another year, when he thinks some 
improvement can be made.— N. Y Farmer. 
A New Vegetable. —It is said that the 
Tannye, or Sandwich Island potato, has been 
introduced into cultivation in several of the 
Southern States. It is described as a “ deli¬ 
cious vegetable,” and the plant is very pro¬ 
ductive. The editor of the San Antonia Texan 
says that a gentleman in that vicinity raised 
six bushels of the article upon a piece of 
ground fifteen feet square. 
Warts on Cows’ Teats .-^-Remedy. —You 
may say to “ J. W. S.,” Fly Creek, Cts. Co., 
N. Y., that I have cured my cows of warty 
teats with the following:—Neat’s foot oil, beef’s 
gall, spirits of turpentine, old brandy, equal 
parts of each. Shake well before using. It is 
an excellent liniment, and will take off callouses 
of long standing. Apply it once a day.— h. p. 
The “ Davis ” Seedling Potato. —. The 
“ gold medal” (value $G0,) of the Mass. Hort. 
Society, was awarded last fall to Mr. Davis 
for his seedling Potato, “ which has stood the 
test five years.” It seems to be highly esteem¬ 
ed around Boston, but we know not that it 
has been tried in other localities. 
Sheep and lambs require especial care in 
February. Leave it optional with them to 
go out or remain under cover ; feed liberally 
with hay—sweet clover hay they relish highly 
—and give them occasionally any juicy roots 
cut finely, or a few beans, or a little corn or 
barley. They will then bring strong lambs.— 
Throw into their yards also, evergreens of pine, 
1 hemlock or spruce boughs.— N. E. Farmer. 
How much Lime do Soils Need ? —We 
have lately had occasion to remark that less 
lime is needed in soil than many suppose.— 
Prof. Emmons, in his Report on the Geologi¬ 
cal Survey of North Carolina, says :—-“ If we 
may appeal to observation and experiment, it 
is established that a small per centage is nec¬ 
essary. If there is present one-half of one per 
cent., it seems to be sufficient; for it is rare to 
find a larger quantity in productive soils.” 
Prof. E. is a chemist and geologist of long 
experience, and was one of the first (perhaps 
the first) to ascertain that some of the most 
productive soils for wheat in Western New 
York contain comparatively little lime.— Bos¬ 
ton Cultivator. 
Tool Houses. —Provide yourself with a 
good tool house. Locate it in some conveni¬ 
ent place, and whenever you have done using 
an implement for the season, cleanse and house 
it. Structures of this kind cost but little, and 
may be made the means of saving a 
great deal. The exposure of costly farming 
implements during winter, is a greater injury 
to them, as a general thing, than the use of 
them during the period they are wanted for 
active service in the field. The corrosion of 
iron by rusting, and the rending and warping 
of wood by moisture, frost and heat, are evils 
the extent of which few appreciate.— Gerrman- 
toum Telegraph. 
Provide for the Birds. —There are few 
who object to cultivating an intimate acquaint¬ 
ance with the birds ; to having them nest, ring, 
chatter, rear their young, prey upon the worms 
and bugs, in orchard, garden and shrubberies. 
Invite them by putting up small bird-houses, 
and iurnishing them facilities for nesting. A 
half-gallon empty oyster keg turned down, will 
attract the wrens, and in all the feathered 
family there is no more sociable singing and 
chattering summer companion. Bring them 
near your bed-room, and their voices will be 
mingled with the healthful morning air that 
enters its casements.— Niagara Democrat. 
Warts on Cattle. —The cause of warts on 
cattle is not clearly known—perhaps it is the 
want of proper action in the skin. The knife 
should not be used, only to pare them slightly 
before applying the cautery. A pencil of the 
nitrate of silver touched to them daily, for sev¬ 
eral days, will often disperse them. We have 
found homoepathic treatment higldy success¬ 
ful with horses and cattle. For dry warts 
give dulcamara, and in some cases sulphur; for 
ulcerated warts, arsenicum. — N. E. Farmer.
