THE FARMERS' UOUNOIL.

The Oattle Interest of Montgomery County Dismissed By Oapt. E. T. MoUrea and Others.

The quarterly meeting of the Montgomery County Farmers' Couuoil oonvened at the ourt house on Thursday the 27th of February., Hon. Jasper N. Davidson, president, in the ohair. The first paper read was by C&pt. E. T. MoCrea, on our cattle interest. The Captain said in substanoe, that in selecting an animal to feed, I have always found a large bone made a fast growing ponderous carcass. Short legs with bodies olose to the ground, deep lungs, with a mild, lazy look, straight back and heavy quarters, you will have an ox that will weigh well, eat well and butcher well upon the block. Do not let fanoy, prices, high sounding names or long pedigrees deoeive, but examine for yourself. See that his skin is yellow and under the pressure of your hand is loose and rolling. With these points the rest will scaroely ever be lacking in making what you want— most money for amount of food consumed. Short Horned, Polled Angus and Herefords, are best for beef. Polled Angus was pronounced best in the world at the World's Fair at Paris. They are large, plump, oompaot and docile. Convenienoe of feeding without horns must not be over-looked. Stand olose together, require no tying in stalls, hence much less shed room horned oattle. With me they have kept iu better condition than the Shorthorns, when fed with them. Color in in any breed amounts to nothing. The same rules for feeding will not apply to all localities. The younger the animal, the less food it takes to make a pound of flesh, hence every pound put on as tho animal grows older, it takes more than the preceding one. A good clover lot will carry more oattle than any other of the grasses. Never pasture clover without a good straw stack in the field. However good the pasture oattle will eai the straw. It neutralizes the grasses on the stomach and prevents hoven, so dangerous to oattle grazing on clover wet with rains and morning dews.

Prices must mainly lie regulated by supply and demand. Feed high and heavy what you da raise and raise a less number, they will then be always in demand at remunerative prices. At the conclusion of the Captain's paper discussion was called for.

M. B. Waughsaid he would like to aslr at what age a steer could be made to weigh 1,600 lbs. Capt. McOrea answered 5 years old and past. Mr. Waugh was sorry to see Capt. MoCrea discard the Shorthorn oattle. He believed the Shorthorn had proved the best breed for profit. The Hereford a few years ago were going to supercede all other breeds, but they had been abandoned for the Shorthorn. He believed it would be so with the Polled Angus, so much oommended by Capt MoCrea. The Shorthorn would supercede all others again. The people were crazy after new things, and the Polled Angus cattle are being boomed because they were new. They will not thrive under common treatment, like the Shorthorn He indorsed Capt. MoCrea's description' of a good steer. Mr. Waugh advises farmers to be cautious about going into the Polled Angus business. President Davidson—Mr. Waugh, there is one point I would like to hear you on—that is the feeding on grass after winter feeding. Mr. Wough thought it did not pay to turn cattle on grass early in the Spring without other feed. He gave many instances to show that it was better to feed corn or meal till there was an abundance of grass, and then to put the cattle on good grass without other feed than the grass. Isaao N.' Miller was not an advocate of any particular breed. He had been an advocate of Shorthorns, but he thought there had been some deterioration of the Shorthorn breed. Had seen more beef on a Polled Angus bull than he had ever seen in any other kind of animal He believed tile Polled Angus a good breed, and they might prove to be better other. He thought a good olover field next to a good blue-grass pasture with a gap between, was an excellent grazing place for oattle, and a straw stack, as suggested by Oapt MoCrea would help the situation. Jf he were going to make a fanoy weight, he would feed meal and bran with grass. He did not believe in feeding ear corn on grass. We ought all to learn more about the art of feeding Feeding and breeding were the mnjp points to look after. It was easy to raise corn, but judicious feeding was not so easily learned. The low prioe would probably connect itself by and by. He thought the oattle market was somewhat oontroled by English inter ests. James A. Mount said that a great many inferior cattle were taken to market The money was in good cattle, none oould be made by raising and selling inferior stock. Farmers, a few years ago, were all going oat of the sheep business. He thought they were wrong and would soon want to buy their sheep back, and it had turned out so. Calves were being killed in exoess of anything ever known. He believed it a mistake. He thought just now the

time to buy and raise calves. Oattle would be high again soon. Tho beef oombiae was destroying the home market and we needed legislation. It was gtowiag so that our cattle all had to be shipped to the oenter of slaughter, and then shipped back to the plaoes of consumption. He thought the railroads and the beef combines were associated in this effort tooontrol the beef business We must have a more eoonomio system of leading oattle. Mr. Polk, a dairy mite of Hanoook oounty bad reoently told him that there was more feed wasted than would pay off the mortgages on the farmers. Mr. Meredith had told him.that corn fodder was worth as muoh hay. He had not fed any hay to oattle fot many yean. Mr. Mount urged the saving of fodder, and that lotting it go to waste was utterly ruinous to the farmer. We ought to plow less land and raise more grass. Many others urged that oorn fodder was valuable— as valuable as a orop of hay, and that it was foolish and wasteful to treat it as was usually the method in this country that is turning the oattle in the stock field to eat the standing stalks during the winter.

There was gome discussion as to the time to turn stock off of grass that was intended to be saved for winter grazing. Mr. Mount said that the general opinion was, that pastures intended for winter, should not be grazed after the last of May, and in this opinion most of the grazing men oouourred. At 12 o'olock the Council adjourned till 1:30 P. m.

AFTERNOON SESSION..

The Council re-assembled at 1:30 p. m., and the following gentlemen were appointed as a Committee of Observation, pursuant to section 4, of the constitution, viz: Union, John L. Davis, R. B. Snyder, D. H. Davidson, Vincent Clark SugarCreeK,Jno.Holloway Franklin, J. A. Mount Walnut, I. N. Miller Clark, Geo. Harshbarger Scott, Frantz Myers Brown, J. N. Fullenwider ©ipley, James Swearengen Wayne, Ambrose Remley Gobi Greek. T. E. Bowles MadiBon, B. B. Rusk. Each one of the Committee is to appoint his own assistant. Tho duties of this Committee are pointed out in the constitution.

Frantz Myers spoke extemporaneously on the preparation of soilB for planting. Different soils, he said, required different treatment and preparation. Mb iron-olad rule would suit all soils. FaAn soil should be as nearly as possible prepared in the plan in the garden —that is' thoroughly pulverized. All manure'Shoald be hauled out and put on the poorest points. The most essential thing was good implements. Six or seven inches was deep enough to plow for corn, depending very muoh however, in the nature of the' soil. After plowing, a drag was best to pulverize the ground. A railroad bar, with a team at eaoh end made an exoellent drag. Then a good Scotoh harrow would be best A judicious rotation of crops was the best method of maintaining fertility of the soil.

Isaac N. Miller thought we need not, in this county, resort to artificial fertilizers. He thought a judioious rotation of crops the best way to fertilize our lands. He had farmed all his life, and thought from his experience, that nature furnished enough mineral matter, and clover would furnish the rest. Ho never cut but one orop of olover from a sowing, he then put in corn, and afterwards wheat The land must be well drained and clovered, and we would always have good orops. In response to a question by President Davis, he said that he would not make much difference between scattering the straw and burning it

J. A. Mount said the question of maintaining the fertility of our soil had been a question of interest all over the State. He thought the grain on the farm shonld be fed on the farm. Many farms in the south part of the State had been ruined by raising timothy and selling it off the farm.

Oapt Billingsly said we had sidetracked Mr. Myers's subject and got onto the fertility of the soil. He agreed with all of Mr. Myers' notions about the preparation of the soil. As to main taining the fertility of the soil he did not believe it would pay to haul out manure from the barn yard. The labor was more than the profit He would not sell straw from his farm. He hauled out his straw and burned it on the land. A fanner had said to him, what we want is to raise more orops on less land—Robert Smith was the man— and the observation was a wise one.

Samuel H. Gregg discussed artificial fertilizers. He thought some artificial fertilizers neoessary to keep up the fertility of the soiL He believed the fertilizing properties of olover came largely from the roots of the olover. His opinion was that plenty of olover fed on the farm would keep up fertility if all manure was put on the poor spots.

Jacob Harshbarger said the reason that farmers in England and Canada beat us was that they mulched their stalks. They scattered their manure and refuse and plowed it under. Farmers in Maryland had worn out their lands and had

advised him to use olover plentifully. President Davidson said that when tho manuro was soattered the ammonia was retained, and it was the best way to scatter it when first hauled out,

Mrs. J. M. Waugh read an interesting paper on the subject of "Sunshine and Little Things." It was full of good things, and was listened to with the greatest interest by the large audience. She urged theneoeesity of having everything about the house to keep house with, and then to keep everything in its plaoe so it oould be found when wanted. She gave a list of all the essentials from the medicine ohest down to the darning needle. She also dwelt on the art of cooking as one of the essentials of a well regulated household.

The President designated beet sugar for experiment, and appointed the following persons to raise beets and make sugar: Oapt. H. M. Billingsly, J. J. Darter, Oapt H. H. Talbot, Capt E. T. McOrea, J. M. Harshbarger, Wm. Q, O'Neal, J. N. Davidson, P. S. Kennedy H. H. Swindler, E. M. Smaley, B. B. Rusk, Ambrose Remley.

The Council was well attended, and all seemed to take the liveliest interest in tho disoussion. Tho next meeting will be held the last Thursduy in May.
