Improving Sandy Soil with Wood Ash and Clover
Article advises improving dry sandy soil by adding wood ashes for moisture and mineral content. Recommends German potash as an additional source and suggests not plowing sandy land for more than two years without seeding clover or similar cover to supply vegetable matter.
Horse Power for Farmers
A horse power helps farmers perform winter tasks on the farm. It replaces men in cutting wood grinding grain and cutting hay straw and cornstalks. The on farm use keeps horses active in winter instead of idle in the stables.
Worth of corn cobs as farm manure noted
A critic argues against shelling corn in ear to mills citing cob waste. Another objection is that shelters waste far too. Cobs should stay on the farm for their manure value rich in potash. On heavy soils cobs help lighten land and aid cultivation. Wet heaps rot in a year enabling even mold distribution.
Poor land needs proper drainage and fertile sources
Unproductive land is often due to mismanagement rather than inherent sterility. In rich areas underdrains can redeem low land, but dry sterile soils cannot be made productive. Wet land accumulates sediment from neighboring fields, and if those areas are infertile the alluvial soil shares that character.
Nitrogenous Manures for Beans
The bean crop gains value from grain not foliage as excess nitrogen yields straw over pods. Coarse stable manure heats soil, boosting warmth and reducing pod formation. Finely rotted manures and nitrates aid grain by making mineral plant food available. Caustic potash or soda can convert inert soil nitrogen into usable forms.
Fruit as Summer Diet for Progressive Farmers
The piece notes a shift from pork and potatoes to fruit in the summer diet as farming becomes less labor intensive. It argues fruit is a necessity for workers and their families and urges plantations to ensure ample fruit for health and well being.

The Stock-Breeder Marking Sheep
Lampblack mixed with strong vinegar will mark sheep so a name can be read for a year without injuring the wool. English practice used ear slits or notches that last a lifetime, with marks varied by ear position and shape to identify different owners.
Keeping cows in milk without calving not advised
The plan to keep cows continuously in milk without calving is practicable but not generally best. It reduces yield, makes milk less digestible, and requires as much labor as milking a cow with a fresh flow. If well fed, cows may be milked until calving but should be allowed weeks to regain condition for a large milk flow.
Holsteins Suit Family Use Over Jerseys
Holsteins provide higher milk yields with solid cream and butter content, making them more suitable for family use than Jerseys. Jerseys produce richer milk but with lower overall yield, so a single cow often fails to supply consistent quantity.
