[7 Yam the -V. T. Times.) 
We recently witness'll a tvt.it of this new Inven¬ 
tion, which resulted In n perfect success, and uro 
sntistled it is Just whilt- every potato grower needs. 
It will save the wages of two or three men every day.

ami succeeds lu preserving them. Dr. SMITH 
said that in Russia eggs ate put. into a. keg and 
heated lard is poured over them so as to Ull the 
interstices, and thus they arc preserved. The 
object is to close the pores of the shell and pre¬ 
vent evaporation. Mr. Gregory has known 
people to fill a basket with eggs and dip them 
into hot water thirty seconds, and thus preserve 
them well. 
Norway Oai».— LocKHART STEWART, North 
Branch, N. V., says he believes these oats to be 
an old valid v, and snys no one can distinguish 
them, as he lias grown them, from a black oat 
which he has known for fifteen years. Of those 
black oats lie saysThey arc good oats; if sown 
early will produce about two to throe bushels 
more In one sowing: they take t wo weeks longer 
to ripen than tho common kind C oats. Mr. 
Curtis hell eves tho Norway to be nothing elso 
than 11m Black Poland, grown in this country 
many years ago. He 1 ms no faith that it 13 dif¬ 
ferent. or superior to the old black out. 
Soft Water Well Becomes Hurd,— CHESTER W. 
Down. Lynn, Mass., bad a well of soft water 
which was dry two months the past season and 
now, since It has filled again, tho water is hard. 
He asks if if v, P.I been me soft again and if it is 
safe to drink it. None of the savans told him; 
but tho RtUtA 1 . thinks tho hard water will harm 
no one who uses it. 
Plan of a Cow Stable Wanted.—W ellington 
IIarlan, Danville, Ivy., asks the Club or some 
of its correspondents l'oru plan of a cow stable, 
assorting that there are few stables In that 
vicinity. 
About a Corn Husker.—R. J. Wills, St. Jo¬ 
seph, Mo., aska whether it is safe for him to 
invest $lf >0 in a corn husker which lie bus never 
seen, but which has been commended by tho 
Farmers' Club. Tho Commander of tho Club 
stated that, if a Coinmit.teo of tho Club com- 
mondod it, ho supposed It to have been their 
honest, opinion, and he could give no further 
information. [Nevertheless, the Rural does 
not advise any 1 na .11 to pay $150 for a emu busker 
until n personal test of its work has boon had.] 
Quick Churning, Francis Collins of Penn¬ 
sylvania tells how quickly lie churns—in from 
six and a half to seven minutes, but does not 
tell how nor name the churn ho probably aims 
to indirectly advertise. 
Sow Bug* in Coliur*.—M assingham & Bno., 
Trumbull, O., ask how to got rid of these bugs, 
which infest their cellars. 
Cow* Drying Up,—Guo. M. Oallowat, Low- 
ville, Now York, writes that lie has had a cow 
almost wholly dry her millt for two or three 
days and then recovered. Afterwards others of 
tho herd wore affected in tho same way. Tho 
cows wore ull in good health, apparently. Asks 
the cause and cure. 
Plastic Slate.—H enry Crocker, Wellington, 
Ohio, asks the Club how pin: tic slate should bo 
applied to cellars. I f Mr. Crocker will look on 
page 713 current volume of Rural he will learn 
what ho wants to know. 
Gruvtd Roof for Rum*. Warren CooLEDQE, 
Madison Co., N. V'., wants to roof a ham with (ar 
and gravel, but says It Las been suggested to 1 /im 
that tho steam of tho luy will melt the tar, mid 
that tho latter will perfume, and render unpala¬ 
table, the fodder. Asks if these are only fanci¬ 
ful objection*. Tho Club regards them so. 
Profits »( Cotton Culture,.—ALEX. A VERY of 
Natchez, Miss., write t wa recently in con¬ 
versation with a youth who, last year, began 
work on a place for which ho paid y15,000. He 
is only twenty-two years of age, was raised in a 
store in Memphis, and knows how to keep an 
account of all il. costa. He showed me a state¬ 
ment, of lus work in 1860, and I was so taken 
witli it I asked for a copy, which runs us follows. 
I think figures will do more to show tho people 
of the North and West tho profits of cotton cul¬ 
ture than long articles without figures:

I am told farms of 1,030 to 1,500 acres, with 
good houses and improvements for all needful 
planting, cun he had in this county (Adams) for 
S 10 to $io per aoi'ir. It is very healthy, tho land 
is rolling, not r-i h Ul • as the low lands, but 
fetches one-half to it balo and u half pet* acre.” 
How to Keep Cider Sweet. — R. C. IlROMLY, 
Huntington, Vi., tides how to keep eider from 
souring. Tim Commander of the dub gays, 
“Drink It while sweet; that is the best and only 
way I know of." Mr. Buuex says it is useless to 
undertake to make good cider out of apples 
grown in many localities and on different soils; 
for the apples da riot contain sufficient saccha¬ 
rine matter to render it. good nor to preserve it. 
He said that good older could not be made from 
apples grown in Monroe Co., N. Y.; but there arc 
localities in Otsego county, where very good 
cider can be made; and from apples grown in the 
vicinity of Newark-, N. J., cider can bemanufac- 
tured that will keep fii iy years. Mr- Meeker 
did not agree with Mr. Breen. His experience 
had taught him that the only cider that will not 
keep is that which, like city mill,-, lus too much 
water in it. 
Apple Pomace for Manure. A country mem¬ 
ber asked it apple pomace would pay as manure 
if hauled a mile and twenty-five cents per load 
is paid for it. Mr. Breen did not think it worth 
a cent lor immure, Mr. Fuller said possibly 
that might be true of New Jersey pomace, but 
certainly it is not true of that in any other part 
of the Union. Would prefer to compost it with 
lime, before applying to land. 
How Eggs are Formed.-Dr. Smith exhibited 
diagrams of the egg-producing' organs of the 
hen, and showed how important a plenty of

Wtr.t.OWUitnoK, Nov. 12, 1869. 
I have used during the last year tlm “Potato 
Digger “of my neighbor, Mr. J A0O11 Bill s K 1:11 inn I’, 
and have found it, a most valuable farm Implement. 
It does t wo or thvim t lines as much work la getting 
out potatoes ns can bn done with any other tool, and 
takes tho petaloes clean from the hill without cut¬ 
ting or bruising. 
1 most lieartjly commend tho Implement to ull 
farmers us a grcatuelp and saving of time and labor.

R. D. Taylor, Of Concord, K>-.. says that the Gar¬ 
gling Oil cured a liorsoOf Itls, Injured while plowing, 
by attempting to step nvor a stump, almost severing 
the thigh from the body; also, that he. Inis used it in 
liln family for fifteen years, and Is the best remedy 
for Guts, Burns. Bruises, Frost Hltos, Strains, Rheu¬ 
matism, etc., he ever used. „• ^ 
when the natural food of tiro young chick (the 
yolk of the egg from which it. is hatched,) is ex¬ 
hausted, the mother will commence scratching 
and providing food for her offspring; then food 
should bo supplied them. Ho says that a hen 
may lay t wo eggs per day. There Is no law or 
physiological reason why she should not; and 
the number she may furnish in her life-time 
will depend upon the physical vitality and the 
supply of egg-producing food. 
Notes on Hie Plains nnil Their Products.— N- C, 
Mlekbr 1 ms boon traveling West, and gives 
details of what ho has seen and ex! ibits speci¬ 
mens of soils and plants which h has procured. 
Among other plants presented was a sample of 
Buffalo grass, which he says “grows from six to 
eight inches high, is short, and densely tufted, 
sending off stolons or ruuners, and it flowers in 
June. II. extends from Texas 1.0 British America, 
and to the State line of Kansas on tho west, 
lienee it lias an area of 1,200 miles from north to 
south, and two hundred miles from cast to west. 
It is assorted that fids grass grew abundantly 
sixty-llv miles to the eastward of its present 
limit, that tin the bull’d) disappear it disappears 
also, and that tho pralrlo gross takes its place 
when frequent rains appear. It would seem 
from this that tho prairie grass gathers mois¬ 
ture, as well it might, since it covers the ground 
and forms a shade, hence dews gather and hence 
the rain. If this theory is correct, It should 
follow that the prairies of Illinois were once 
covered with buffalo grass, that then there were 
no dews and few showers, and Unit the disap¬ 
pearance of the buffalo has produced a change 
in the climate. This buffalo grass, os 1 saw it in 
October, had a light color, tile same as tho sam¬ 
ple, was crisp ami dry, and gave tlm whole 
country, as far as tho cyo could reach, thoap- 
appearance ol’ a meadow in July just after the 
grass is mown.” 
This very silly theory was laughed at by the 
savans. Tho reason the buffalo grass disappears 
with tho buffalo is because Iff seed Is, uo longer 
distributed by him. Dr. Smith said. Another 
learned gentleman thought altitude and soil had 
more to do with the distribution of the grasses 
tliau the buffaloes do. Mr. Meeker added: 
“ When tho buffalo grass ends tho grama grass 
begins, and extends to the foot, and even into 
tho Rocky Mountains. This, grows In bunches 
or tufts ten or twelve inches high; tho fioedsare 
hold firm, the roots arc linn and HOwers in July 
and August. It is tho most nutritious grass 
known; cattle fed on if are good beef tho your 
rou'id, and working cattle In that country are 
never fed on grain, and do not know what it is. 
From Cheyenne Wells, four hundred and fifty 
miles from Iho Missouri River, I took this speci¬ 
men pf sub-soil two feet below the surface, and 
it will bO seen lobe rich in the elements of fer¬ 
tility. It was nearly as dry then as now, and t he 
people at the stage, station said there bail been 
no rain since June, nor even dew, and yet they 
laid an excellent well of water about ten feet 
deep. In other places they dig from fifteen to 
forty foot. In one place they had gone one 
hundred feet and got. uo water. I think that a 
plenty of water can bo had in from twenty to 
thirty feot, and that if it were pumped witli u 
wind-mill into a largo reservoir made in the soil, 
a few acres could bo irrigated and abundance of 
breadstuff sand vegetables could be grown, while 
stock could be kept to any extent; and it is in 
tliis way that that country can be settled and 
trees made to grow. 
“ Besides la is, tlierailroadcompanyisaboutto 
sink artesian wells. Geologists say tho forma¬ 
tion is favorable for the holding of large bodies 
of water underneath, and it is alleged that such 
bodies must exist, since tho water from the 
Rocky Mountains finds its way only in part into 
the rivers flowing from them. A portion of 
country, perhaps fifty miles wide, was passed 
ovor in the night, during which period wo crossed 
eight miles of sandy land, which was the only 
sand on tho whole journey of seven hundred 
miles. On the Arkansas River, above Bent’s 
Fort, 1 noticed swelling ridges of shale similar 
to that where fine grapes aru grown in Western 
New 7 *ru and in Northern Ohio. This la a 
specimen of that shale. Being in a state of con¬ 
stant decomposition, the soil of the valley in 
made very rich. Tho river is clear and sparkling, 
the water cold,as it should be, since it is derived 
from molted snows in tSie mountains here, only 
about eighty miles distant. A few cottonwood 
trees were along tho hanks; and, although tho 
country is docidtdly healthful, and is beautiful 
and rich, there are few or no inhabitants. 
“All of ihe upper part of this valley.—that is, 
through a distance of about four hundred miles, 
requires irrigation, but, the river has a fall of 
about fifteen foot to tiic utile, and ita waters can 
be carried oul into tho country twenty miles on 
each side. There are many tributaries of this 
river, witli wide valleys, all of which can be Irri¬ 
gated, and I estimate that a country equal to 
Massachusetts, Conucolieut, Rhode Island and 
Vermont can bo brought into cultivation and 
made to sustain an immense population. Otto of 
thoso tributaries is the Hucrfeuo, six hundred 
and fifty miles from the Missouri, on which Col. 
Craig has a plantation of 2,500acres (lowed from 
tho ditches, which, In some places, run around 
tlic side of the hills as trtuoh ns one hundred feet 
above I lie valley. Colonel Craig lives live miles 
from a neighbor, but he has an elegant mansion, 
and lie eomlnets farming on a large scale. To 
give yuii ini idea of wind, tho soil there, is capable 
of producing, I present a sample of the heads of 
timothy gnu “ which Col. Craig requested me to 
exhibit to this Club. The timothy must have 
been as much a six feot high, and it is seen 1 hat 
Hie heads aro from seven to eight, inches long. 
And yet, well m it- gff. , '.fieri? v; no utto for it, 
because) tho grass ol’ Uio country is abundant, 
and because It la oaten from the ground all 
winter.”
