WORN-OUT LANDS.
The Editor of the South Carolina Farmer and
Planter says: “It has just come to thii point—we
must go down hill, or go West—we can’t stayf
here any longer, and live by planting without itn-
proveujent.” Let that truth be treasured by every
fanner who reads this paragraph. It is a fact for
farmers, and one that must not be ignored. It is
equally true in all the Southern or cotton-growing
States as it is in South Carolina, It is just as
true in corn and wheat-growing Virginia, Mary
land, Delaware, Pennsylvania, aud New Jersey.
And it is full of truth as applied to New i ork
and all the New England States. The farmers
“can’t stay there any longer without improve
ment.” That is, they cannot stay without seeing
their land deteriorate, year by year, as it truly has
ever since it was denuded ot its natural forest
growth. Is it necessary? Cannot land be culti^ .
,vated an indetinite number o|g|||||k^d yield
good crops to the cultivator \vn|^^^^^B|rution?
This is the greatest, the most ii^^^H^question
that an American farmer can put to nmiseil'or his
neighbor. We do not believe in the necessity of
deterioration of laud irom cultivation. The pre
ventive is deep disintegration, underdraining, ro
tation of crops, including one grown especially fur
manure, and restoring all the manurial portions
of the crop to the soil, principally in the lorui of
surface manuring, and tithing the products sold
off of the farm to buy foreign fertilizers. Then
will the farm support in comfort forever the family
of its possetsor, and give him an annual incomc to
lay up, or lay out in improvements tending to
beautify and«dd to its value, while they minister
to the enjoyments of the occupants; and when they
grow too nutuerous for the area there will be a
surplus in store to enable the excess in the popu
lation “to go West.” At present the excess is
crowded out of the paternal home, because to stay
is to stay and starve—to starve becau.si; the fer
tility of that home has deteriorated, and in its
pre.sent condition is insufficient to support as large
a population as it did “when the land was new.”
^rhy should it ever grow old? Simply because
this is the truth, as we find it in The llural New
i'orker:
“I aflBrm that not one acre iii ten of our culti
vated farms gets a single load of luauurc of any
kind (except the occasional droppings of cattle
that are pastured upon it) as often as one year in
ten. If the devastating hordes—called ‘farmers’
in modern times—had not had a fertile ‘West’ to
overrun and make desolate, there would have
been a famine in this land before now that all the
‘corn in Hgypt’ could not repair. It is my
solenni conviction that there is not gold enough
in Christendom and Pagandom combined to r_s-
tore the soil of North America to it.s origiual
fertility.’ In humanity’s name, 1 say to farmers,
stop and consider. Take one acre of poor land
and make it rich by the cheapest process you can
devise, and tell me what it costs you! Buy
guano at fiity dollars a ton, ashe.s at twelve cents
a bushel, lime at eighteen cents, charcoal at tight
cents, (probably the cheapest of all,) bone* at
what they cost you, good barn-yard manure at
fifty cents a load, and draw it; fertilize a poor
acre, and make it good lor thirty bu&hels of
wheat, and tell me the cost. You will wish you
had more money by the time you have fertiiiztsu
a hundred acres. 1 tell you, gentlemen, the an
nual depreciation of your grain-farms in particu
lar is a frightful and appalling circumstancc. It
is ea.«icr to stop the mischief than to repair it.
“None of the most common prescriptions for
restoring fertility will answer the purpose which
are based upon ‘rest and rotation,’ such as is un
derstood generally by Southern planters. For
instance, one says to another,‘That field of cotton
looks badly, Squire C.' ‘Yes; I’ve run it in.cot
ton a little too long. Fact is, I haven’t land
enough open for my force; must clear more, so
that 1 can seed down and rest some.’ 'Seed
down and rest'—the sU^reotype phraiie of the
country! And what is seeding down and rest?
Taking a crop of wheat or oats from a soil already
exhausted by bad culture, then throwing down the
fence, and turning every living thing in the neigh
borhood upon it to eat it off and tramp it over un
til planting time comes round again. Aud this
is called seeding and rest. There never was a
greater fallacy than this notion many people have,
of resting land by growing grain crops upon it.
Under such a system the lands must deteriorate
and production decline. Something else is want
ed; more manure and better management. It is
time people should begin to think a little more
seriously about what they owe to their mother
earth.”
I“\ve Persons Hunifd to Dritfii on thr Pmlries
—The Story County (Iowa) Advoca e of the 1st
inst. states that Daniel Swearengcn, with his wife
and four children, recently from Tuscarawas
County, (Ohio,) while on their way from Nevada
to their farm near Fort Dodge, were overtaken by
fire on the prairie. It says;
“Before any measures could be taken for pro
tection, the wagon cover was in flames. In a mo
ment the bedding and other inflammable material
in the wagon was on fire, arid before Mr. S. could
make his way out of the wagon through the flames,
his clothing was on fire. I ntortunately a.s he fell
out of the wagon, he wa.s kicked by otie of the
horses, and for a time .scunnod beyond ability to
help the others. He revived in time to see his
wife fall from the wagon, burned to death, and to
drag from the flames one of his children, alrtrady
dead. Ilis own clothing was burtied et\tirely
from his body, and he is severely burned, espe
cially in the head, face and hands. He is at pre
sent sightless, but hopes are entertained of hl»
recovery, and that his eye sight is t»ot destroyed.
Twoof thechildren were liu rally butted up in the.
wagon. Of one, nothing could be found but the
skull; the other a charred mas.s, in whffe^’ was no
trace of humanity lelt.
One of tbe hor.se.s was biir«^d to deatl
harness; the other bucceeded in
but is baily burned.”
