ON the 11th of last April, THE DAILY TRI-
BUNE. having completed its twelfth year,
was enlarged more than one fourth, or to the
size of The London Times making it consider-
ably larger than any'other cheap Dailv publish-
ed in this country or in the world. No change
in price ‘ was made in consequence of this
Enlargement—the paper being -still . afforded
to Mail Subscribers at $5 per annum, and
sold to Carriers and to Agents ordering it ‘by
Express or Mail for distant sale at .81’ 50 for one
hundred cop‘ies,.or $15 per thousand copies,
payable in advance. At these prices our ag-
gregate receipts for our entire Daily edition do
not exceed the sums we pay for Paper and Ink,
leaving all other expenses to be defrayed from
our receipts for Advertising. In other words,
we return to each purchaser of our paper from
us his money’s worth in the naked sheet we send
him, looking for the reward of our own labor
and the heavy expenses of Telegraphing, Cor-
respondence, Reporting, Composition, Printing,
Mailing, Book-keeping. &c., to our Advertisers
alone. We do not think it now possible to
cheapen newspapers beyond this point; if it
ever shall be hereafter, we intend to be even
with the foremost in demonstrating the fact.
Our Semi- Weekly, European, and Califor-
nia editions were-enlarged simultaneously and
equally with the Daily, also without any in-
crease of price. We respectfully solicit a com-
parison of our Semi-Weekly at $3 per aunum,
(two copies sent a full year for $5, and ten cop-
ies for $20,) with any 54 or $5 Semi-Weekly,
and will cheerfully send copies for this purpose
upon direct or post-paid application.
The .i\"¢»w- York ll/’cel.-ly Tribune entered on
its thirteenth year on the 3d ofSeptemhcr, when
it was in like manner enlarged to the size ofthe
Semi-Weekly and Daily, adding more than one-
fourth to its capacity--also without increase of
price. This Enlargement adds at least $20,000
per annum to our expenses, in addition to the
previous cost of our Daily Enlargement already
effected.’ All our editions now appear in-new
and beautiful type, prepared expressly for this
paper. Our Steam Cylinder Presses are not
surpassed by any in the world. Even though
our Weekly Edition should be rapidly run up
to 100.000 copies, we are prepared to print and
mail every copy on the day (Thursday) that the
form is put to press, without interrupting or re
tardiug the regular issue of our three Daily edi-
tious, amounting to Twenty-odd Thousand cop-
ies. -We stand ready to adopt any improve-
iucnts, however expensive, which will enable us
to disseminate intelligence more freshly and ef-
fectively, and shall especially hail, as we labor
to effect. a radical improvement in the celerity
and reliability of-the Mails.
Tui: TRIBIINE has not now its character to
make or to proclaim. It has supported the
Whig partybecausc the distinctive principles of
tli-at party appeared to favor the great ends
which it has labored to siibscrve ; it never ad-
vocated a measure because it was proposed or
.-ustaiued by the Whig party. It holds itself at
all times as free to condemn unsound principles.
llll‘i'\‘iSt: measures or corrupt acts should the two
former be propouudcd or the latter perpctr-.ttcd
by Whigs as though they had eniuiiateil from
the hostile camp. ln so far as Peace. Liberty,
Education, 'l‘cmperancc, liiteriiul Improvement
and Iiuliistrial Dcvelopineut may be subscrvcd
by acting with the Whig party, it must continue
to be, as it has been. Whig.
Though never acting with any Abolition or
other one-‘idea party, THE Tiiiiiirxr: is and must
be the relentless toe of lluman Slavery, as of
wliatevcr else tends to degrade Labor and ob-
struct the iutcllectual and social -‘development
of any portion of uiaiikiud. Were it able to
perceive that :1 vote in New-York could abolish
Slavery in Carolina, it might attach itself to
some one of the expressly Anti-Slavery parties ;
lacking that light, it declines to abandon the
.-iubstiuicc for the sliadow of political- good.—
But, while it does not see its way clear of any
effective Political action against Slavery in the
States which now cherish it, it rcgar(ls the dc-
feat of whatever effort to extend the giant
wrong under the flag of our Union, or to ob-
struct by its power the ])I‘0,<J,'l‘(:SS of Abolition in
other lands. as among the iuosf. urgent and sa-
cred of public diitics, not to bc SlllJOl'(lill{1l(‘ll to
any party coiisideratiou whatever. And, while
it does not propose to make Anti-Slavery the
liaison of Political action, other than (lcfensivc,
it will neglect no opportunity, remit no effort.
so to diffuse Light and Truth as to render tlie}
continuance of Slavey impossible in a land ir-
radiated by the sun ofChristianity and boasting
itself the gieat exemplar of Political Justice
and law-guarded Frcudoin.
For Temperance in all things, but especially
the disuse of liitoxicat-iiig Beverages and the
legal suppression of the Liquor Traffic, we shall
struggle. as we have struggletl, unfiincliingly
and uiitiriugly. We regard the Maine’ Law as
essentially the most bciieficcut statute of our
day, and confidentially hope to see it soon pre-
vail universally.
The Congressional lIC‘p()l‘l.~l and Washington
Corrcspoiidciicc will, as heretofore, be both re-
liable and satisfactory.
The Markets for Grain, Cattle, Cotton and
other products of the country, will receive
prompt attention and be- reliably reported in
The Tribune.
On our correspondence with the most impor-
taut points tliroughout the world we need not
here dilate. Of the fact that our Associate
BAYARD TAYLOR is now on the other side
of the globe. sending us advices from the seat
of war in China, and expecting soon to depict
for our readers, the physical, moral and social
ch’ai'acterii-ztics of jealoiisy-gtiarded Jar an, the
public is already aware. He will probably re-
turn by way oi‘.-Xiistralia and California, in both
of which we have several correspondents.-—
Bricfly—-~wc shall spare no expense to keep our
readers well advised on every subject ofiutercst,
and doubt not that the same generous measure
of patronage hitherto accorded to us will con-
tinue ti repay all our exertions. ‘
We rarely employ Traveling‘ Agents, as so
many iniposters arc habitually prowling in the
assunicd capacity of solicitors forjouruals. We
prclcr that our suhso1‘ibei's shall pay their moii-
cy to persons they know and ofwhosc integrity
they are :l.\‘Flll'(‘(l. Any friend who believes he
will do good by increasing the circulation of
'l‘iii; 'l‘i:iiiuxi: is aiithorizcd to solicitaud receive
subscriptions; and, on due proof that money
has lJ(‘t‘ll iuailcd and post-paid to out‘ addresis,
we take the i-i_-spoiisiliility of its safe transmis-
sion. Spi,-,c-iiucii copies will promptly be sent

On the soiling of Cattle.
av HON. Josnm QUINCY, snmoa.
To the Trustees of the Norfolk Agri-
cultural Society:
Gentlemen,-_In conformity with your
request, I proceed to state "-my ‘ experi-
ence, practice and views,” on tliesubject.
of “soiling ;” by which I understand the
keeping cattle in the barn and feeding
them with green food during the summer
months, allowing them, daily, only a few
hours’ liberty of a yard, instead of feed-
ing them in pastures. I do not, liowev
er, expect to communicate anything
which. iuay not easily be gathered from
European writers; knowing, also the
great proportion of land in the State
thought to be exclusively applicable to
pasrurage, I do not anticipate that any
statement on the topic can be generally
useful. Yet, to those farmers who have"
land which may not easily be subjected
to the plow, and to that increasing class
who possess only ten, fifteen, or twenty
acres of Ian l, the system is very import-
ant; a knowledge of my "experience and
practice” may be useful, I therefore, com-
ply with your request. _
Between years 1813 and 1821, I man-
aged my farm, according to my own jud-
ment, with satisfactory success. My at-
tention was early drawn to the subject
of “soiling” milch cows, in the summer
season, instead of keeping them in the
pasture, from the following circumstan-
ces: My farm consisted of about 1'70
acres of good loam, level, without stone,
almost every square foot of which might
be easily made subject to the plow, with
the exception of about twenty acres,
which was salt marsh. Nearly half of
it had always been applied to pasture,
and had upon it, by estimate, four or five
miles of interior fence, which couid have
cost, originall), not less than $1,600, and
being post and rai|.aniiually cost about $60
in repairs. My farm being compact, the
annoyance of having fifteen or twenty
head of cattle driven night and morning
to, and from pasture, the loss of time in
turning the plow, owing to the number
of inteiior fences, and the loss of surface
capable of being submitted to the plow,
owing to the many headlands, all drew
my attention to the subject of “soiling,”
and its effects.
I found that European writers main-
tained that six disiiuctiadvantages were
to be attained by the practice of “s0iling"
over that of pasturingin the summer sea-
son.
1. It saved land.
2. It saved fencing.
3. It economized food.
4. It kept the cattle in better condition
and greater comfort.
5. It produced more milk.
6. It increased, immensely, the quan-
my and quality of the manure.
Satisfied, in my own mind, of the hen-
eficial effects of the practice, I adopted
it in the year 1815, and adhered to it un-
til the year 1822, keeping from fifteen to
twenty head of milch cows with such sat-
isfrciory success that in the year 1820 and_
1821, at the request of the Trustees of
the Massachusetts Society for Promoting
Agriculture, I published in their Reposi-
tory two essays, entitled "Remarks on
Soiling" and which may be found in Vol.
VI. page 113-125 and in pages 334-348
ofthat publication. In the year 1822, I
gave up the direct management of my
farm and leased it from consideration:
wholly independent of any dissatisfaction
with this practice or its results.
From that time, being occupied in va-
rious public offices in Boston and its vi-
cinity, I exercised no superintendence of
an,» farm for about twciny-five years.-
Resuming its management in 1547, I im-
mediately returned to the practice of
“soiling,” resorted to the essays Iliad
formerly published, to revive my knowl-
edge on the subject. and from that time
to the present have persevered in the prac-
tice with such entire satisfaction that no
consideration would induce me to adopt
any other. Since 18-17, I have kept
from thirty to thirty-five head of milch
cows in this way, so that, in my mind,
my experience is conclusive on the sub-
jcct.
Every one of the advantages above
stated, as being maintained by European
writers, I have realized.
1. As to saving of land. One acre
“soiled from,” will produce as much as
three acres pastured. This is enough al-
though some European writers assert the
benefit is equal to one to seven. The
great difference arising from the mode in
which the one acre is cultivated and cu-
riched for succulent products.
As to saving of fencing. It renders all
interior fences useless. It enables the
plo-v to pass through any length of land
without turning, and saves all waste
from headlands, which on each side of
ces are usually the receptacles of unsigh-
tly and noxious weeds.
3. As to economy of food. Cattle will
eat in the stall what they will reject in
the field. They tread down and injure
in the pasture, by diinfi or bv stale grass
as good and almost equal quantities with
that which they consume, and by their
feet injure its present product and future
productive power.
4. As to the better condition and grer-
It comfort of the cattle. In the mail
cient quantity. And previous prepara-
tions having been made, they can never
fail, let the season be what it will, of al-
ways having the best food and enough.
When kept in the pasture they are left to
their own care, subject to various acci-
dents, to the ill-effects produced by wor-
rying one anoilier, and to the constantly
varying state of the pasture, which is al-
ways affected by drought and the pro-
portion of the number pastured to the pro-
ductive power of the field, which is of-
ten overstocked. In stall feeding, care
having been taken to have sufficient food
prepared, they are, in as great a degree
as possible, kept independent of the vari-
ations of sesson and other annoyances.—
Their greater comfort in this mode of
keeping, is one of the essential causes of
their bettercondition. During the heat
of the day they are kept under a cover in
the shade, secured from files, from being
worried by dogs or one another, from ea-
ting any noxious vegetables and from bad
water.
A popular objection to this mode of
keeping milch cows, is, that want of ex.
ercise must affect injuriously the health
of the animal. To this, European writers
some of whom have kept in this way,
large herds, reply that they “never had
one sick. or one die, or one iniscarry,” in
consequence of this mode of keeping.-
Afier more than eight years’ pursuance
of the same practice, my experience jus-
Lifies me in uniting my testimony to theirs
on this point.
Another common-place objection to
this practice in respect of milch cows, is
that their “milk cannot be so good nor in
so great quantities, for want of exercise.”
Nothing can have less foundation in fact.
Cows in the pasture, unless under some
temporary excitement, use very little.-
coinparaiively no exercise. They usual-
1y walk a short time slowly, collect their
food and lie down to ruminate. The
difference between this habit of theirs
and the exercise obtained by walking
about an hour or two hours in the day in
a yard, and being employed in rubbing
themselves against walls or posts, is little
if any, less than they get in the pasture.
This exercise (a daily thorough currying
being added in their stalls) is quite as
sufficient to produce a healthful action of
the system as any exercise, as it is called,
in the pasture.
5. As to the quantity of milk produc-
ed by this mode of keeping. my own ex-
perience is, in my opinion, decisive in its
favor. In early summer, and when pas-
tures are fresh in grass, milk will be, for a
short period, produced in somewhat great-
er quantities by keeping in pasture than by
"soiling." But this advantage is of very
short duration. As soon as pastures grow
short, and the annoyance of heat and
flies commences, all the advantage is
transferred to stall feeding. ' By compar-
ison of the result of my milk produced,
with that of my neighbors, taking both
parts of the summer season together, I
am entirely satisfied that the product, by
well conducted “soiling,” is greatly in fa-
vor of this process.
__6. As to the great increase in the quan-
tity and quality of the manure, there can
be possibly no question on the subject.-
Proper receptacles for this article being
provided, free from rain, and the sun, in-
to which the stale from the cattle may be
also received, the quantity and increased
value of the manure thus kept, is accor-
ding to my experience, a full equivalent
for all the labor and expense of raising.
cutting, and bringing in the food, feeding
currying, and other care of the cattle.-
No farmer need be told of the importance
and absolute necessity of manure for suc-
cessful faruiing, and to those who have
not the means. of purchasing that article,
the mode of "soiling” is of all others the
most certainly productive of it, both in
quantity and quality.
As to “my practice," in soiling, it re-
lates, 1st. To the quantity of land to be
cultivated for the purpose of preparing
succulent food ; 2. To the particular at-.
iicles to be thus cultivated, and 3d. To
the times they are to be sown, so as to
effect a regular succession of such food.
1. As to the quantity of land to be cul-
tivated. According to my experience,
one square rod of land, of rich loam in
high tilth in grass, oats, barley, or Indian
corn, is enough for the support of a cow
a day, if out and delivered to her in the
bani. As, however, there is a great dif-
in the state of land in its productive pow-
er, and as it is important there should be
no failure in succulent food, my practice
has been to cultivate one and a half
square rods of land per day for each head
of cattle I intend to “soil.”
And on this basis I make my calculations
in the spring of the year; for the quanti-
ty to be sown, at every succeeding peri.
oil, when to secure a regular seccession
of such food, a ne\v sowing is required.—
To make this calculation sufficiently ex-
act, the length of time it will take the ar-
iicle sown to come to maturity so as to
be fit to cut, and the length of time it
will afterwards continue to be succulent
are to be considered 2 The time it comes
to such a state of maturity, is, of course,
the time at which it may be relied upon
for "sailing." A like reliance may be
placed on the time it will continue succu-
lent. The -mm-.-.i in.-...,i..i... no ........:
If any article sown in the spring will
come to maturity on the 1st of July, and
will continue succulent ten days, fifteen
square rods of succulent food will be wan-
ted for each cow "soiled”; one cow will
therefore, consume fifteen square rods du-
ring that period, and ten cows will re
quire one hundred and ‘sixty rods, or
about an acre of such food for their sup-
port. On this basis of calculation I have
always found the number of square rods
to be sowed, for such a period of succu-
leucy of the plant is sufficient for about
sucha period of feeding, viz: ten days —
On this calculation I have safely “soiled”
from thirty to thirty-five head of cattle,
adding one acre of preparatioufor every
ten head.
Should any one, however, adopt this
practice for the first time, I should ad-
vise the preparing of two square rods
for each cow, against every contingency
to which a first attempt may be liable.-
For nothing will be lost, ifthe food should
prove morethan was required. The sur-
plus becomes a resource for the winter
keeping. after it is too rank for “soiling.”
2. As to the particular articles to be
thus cultivated I have tried many he-
sides those above mentioned, such as mil-
let, lucerne, cabbages, peas, if e tops of
carrots, beers and turnips. Each may
be usefully applied in its proper season,
particularly the three last. And whoever
keeps milch cows, will find roots an im-
portant auxiliary for milk in the winter
season, and, of course, will find their tops
in like important. aid to "soiling” in the
latter months of autumn. But I think it
best to enumerate only the fewest, the
simplest, and the best known to all farm-
ers, of the articles, which, from experi.
euce, I have found the surest, and the
best to be relied upon for a successful
conduct of the system. These are those
already enumerated ; oats, barley, and
Indian corn, sown broadcast or in drills,
for fodder.
3. The time in which the above arti-
cles are to be sown. The usual period
in this country for turning out cows to pas-
ture, is from the 20th of May to the 1st
of June. Antecedent to this period no
succulent food can be obtained for “soil-
ing.” Prepararion, however, may be
made the autumn previous by sowing
winter rye, according to the proportion
required for “soiling,” from the 10th or
15th of the month of May to the 1st of
June. This could be done with advan-
tage, but I Iiave never practiced it more
than once; because, although I have al-
ways had rye fit for cutting at this time
yet it is too valuable, as grain and straw,
for me to use it; regarding as I do win-
ter rye, at the usual prices of grain and
straw in this vicinity, to be the most
profitable of any grain product. .
The reliance in the “soiliiig” system,
for succulent food between the 20th of
May and the 1st of July is grass, cut and
delivered in the stable; and according to
my experience, one and a half square
rods per day for each cow "soj,led” is ain-
ple for this purpose. The grass thus cut
was usually that which is the least likely
to be preferable for winter keep, such as
that growing by the side of my farm
roads, or under trees, or that having the
raiikest fiber.
The food sown and cultivated for soil-
ing, in this climate, must have exclusive
reference to the summer and autumn
months, commencing with the tirst of
July. And the following is the order of
sowiiig, according to my practice, justifi
ed by experience, the proportion of land
sowed at each successive period, be-‘nit: as
above stated one and a /za{f, or two
square rods per dag/,for eac/i cow soiled,
To produce a sufficient quantity of suc-
cession of succulent food, sow—
1. As early in April as the state of the
land will permit, which is usurlly be-
tween the 5th and the 10th on properly
prepared land-—oais, at the rate of four
bushels to the acre.
2. About the 20th of the same month,
sow either oats or barley, at the same
rate per acre, in like quantity and proper-
tions.
3. Early in May, sow in like manner
either of the above grains.
4. Between the 10th and 15th of May,
sow Indian com (the flat, southern, be-
ing the best) in drills, three bushels to the
acre, in like quantity and proportions.
5. About the 25th of May, sow corn in
like quantity and proportions.
6. About the 5th of June repeat the
sowing of corn.
7. After the last mentioned
barley should be sown in the above-meir
tioned quantity and proportions in suc-
cession, on the 15th and 25th of June,
and on the 1st of, or early iiiJiily. Bar-
ley being the best qualified to resist the
sowing,
early frosts
The results of the above sowing iii suc
culent food, may be expected to be as fol.
lows, seasons of extraordiiiary drought
excepted.
The cats sowed early in April,-\vill Le
ready to cut for “soiling” between the is‘
and 5th of July, and will usually remain
succulent until the 12th or 15th of this
month.
Those sowed about the 20th of April,
will be ready to out between the 15th
and 20th of July, and will last. nearly or
.-...2on fill ob... 1.-o --F R ----v--e
till about the 10th of this month._-.‘~1Z’2_
The corn sown on 10th and |25th of
May, and early in June, will supply in
succession, succulent food of the best
quality, until early in September.
The barley sown in July, will continue
a sufficient supply until early in Novem-
ber; at which time, and often before, the
tops or roots, carrots, beets or turnips,"
are a never failing resource.
In the above enumeration of articles
to effect a succession of succulent food
for “soiling,” I have carefully confined
myself to those which were the fewest
and the most. commonly known. Ihave
also stated their succession in point. oi
sowing and use, as if no other articles
could be brought in aid, for the purpose
that there may be no disappointmeni..——
Whereas, in the latter end of July, and
in August, second crop grass may be
generally relied upon, and in September
and October, the tops of roots, as above-
mentioned, and of Indian corn, are also
a reliable resource.
I have also stated a succession of sow-
ings, which my experience has shown to
be full and sufficient, and which, if the
quantity sowed should be equal to two
square rods for each cow "soiled,” per
day, will certainly be more than suffi-
cieut for summer “soiling"; but as before
if there should be excess, nothing is lost,
as it becomes a resource for winter food
for cattle.
I cannot close this communication,
without remarking upon the importance
of this system, and of its being known
and understood. Nothing seems less re-
alized than the productive power of the
soil when it is good, arable, and well cul-
tivated. _ A man hardly dares to call him-
self, in our country, a farmer, unless he
have thirty, forty, or fifty acres. If he
have only ten, fifteen, or twenty, he as-
pires oniy to the character of a gardener;
but as to keeping any number of cattle
beyond what is wanted for his own fam.
ily use, he generallv regards it wholly
out of the question. Now there is in our
country no class of men whom it is more
desirable to encourage and instruct in the
actual productive power of the quantity
of land they possess, than these ten
teen or twenty acre men. As this class
multiplies, as it must, it will become a
most important element in preserving
and perpetuating conservative principles
in our institutions. The consciousness
of an identity of interest between the
small and the great landholder, is, in a
republic, one of the strongest bonds of its
continuance and happiness. A practical
knowledge of the productive power of the
soil and of the mode of making its yield
the most, will not only create in them,
content. but will prevent them from run-
ning into debt for more land, a practice,
of all others, the most embarrassing and
ruinous to that class of farmers.
That this class may obtain distinct and
practical knowledge of the mode of oper
aiuig on a small scale, on this system, I
state that I have known two head of milch
cows kept in full milk and high con-
dition through the whole sumiuer season
on one acre of land, and some food from
it be left for winter use. To obtain the
requisite succession of green food, one-
quarter of an acre was sown of articles
herein already stated, early in April, an-
other quarter about fifteen days after the
first, and so the remaining two quarters in
similar succession.
The first sown will be in a state to be
used in “soiling” about the 1st of Ju'y,
until which time, grass cut and brought
to the stable is the reliance. From the
1st to the 15th of July, the food obtained
from the first quarter of an acre, will he
usually a full supply. As soon as this
quarter of an acre is feed off, it is to be
well maiinied,—of which the cattle will
have afforded an abundance,—plo\ved, or
spaded, and the articles above stated,
sowed and rolled in. The same process
is to be pursued in respect of every suc-
ceeding quarter of an acre, as soon as it
is fed off, as long as the season will per-
mit an expectation of a crop from such
sowing.
Of course, a farmer upon such a small
scale, will have roots of some kinds, car-
rots, beet:-., turnips or cabbagcs, for win-
ter supply, which will come in aid of the
food of the one acre, to such a degree
that the articles sown upon it will be-
come also in part a reserve for winter
supply. I have stated that two cows
may thus be kept on one acre during the
summer season, because I know the trial
has been made with complete success by
