and what was still more distressing, I
found that Ell hit human beings had become

ed Thompson's Bay, where lived Mr..
Abraham Boyer, and his son John and
his family, upon a neck of land, and out of
"a persons residing there, only four are
saved-the rest having been swept away
with their houses, by the overhowing of
the tide-the water rising at the Blight, &
also at Thompson's Bay, to the incredible
height OF 80 feet above high water mark.
From this place to the north end--a
distance of about 50 miles, there are only
six houses standing, and they are in very
shattered condition.
The greater part of the provision crops
which had been recently taken in, are de-
stroyed, and what remains is scarcely fit

Families once living in apparent COM
fort are now obliged TO take shelter under
a matched hut.
The distress of the inhabitants general
" is beyond description. Roads which
were once comfortable for travelling, can
now scarcely be traced.

No-The Wheat crop in this county, which
is now harvested, proves TO be abundant, and
ofcxcel!ent quality. The Rye and Dat crops
arc also tolerabiy fair-snd tho Corn is pro-
misiog, but has suffered con sidorably OF late
from the dry, hot weather. For nine or ten
days preceding Saturday last, We had os
sc0rching suns as we have ever experien
ced. and nc rain. la the evening Of that day
We had slight shower. since which il has
been cool and cloudy. The greatest heat
here. as Indicated by Fahrenheit, was $50.
la some places TO the North, we see il stated
that il was as high as l000-and at Romney
in this State. 1922.
Tho exper iments made with the Spring
wheat have again proven entirely satisiacto-

considered as fairly established, and we
would advise every farmer TO take up lis
cultivation. II is as easily managed as an
Dat crop, and far more profitable.

SPEED THE PLOUGH.
From the New England Farmer.
EXACrNEss AND CALCULATIONS.


We cannot urge too strongly upon the
farmers every where, the impo rtance of
ascertaining, by exact examination and
measurement,where measurement isprac-
ticable, what they produce, what is the
value. aud what is the cost of their pro.
duction. In general, farming is carried
on as system of random guesswork.-
This ought not 10 be. In order TO know
what we can do and ought to do. it is Of
The first Importance to understand what
we have done. The constant objection
10 such eXactness is. that 'it is too much
trouble, such exactness takes too much
time" Now VIC can answer for it, that
IT takes very little time, and that it gives
very little trouble. ltwould ne, in the
first place, important for every farmer to
know the contents in acres and value of
every enclosure on his farm, and this
once done is done forever, as long Ms
those enclosures remain: or il he takes
up but part OF his field Tor cultivation,
there is no great difficulty IN having that
part carefully measured. In his cultlva-
ton it would be easy for him to ascertain
carefully the quantity of land under cul-
tivation: to keep an exact account Of the
number of days employed in that culti-
walton the number of loads of manure
applied to it; the quantity OF seed sown;
and the time of sowing. In respect to
all grain or vegetable crops, they of me-
necessity pass through the bushel or the
half bushel measure. There can be no
difficulty in keeping the number of these
measures In regard Ia his hav and
straw, there can be no great trouble in
keeping the number oil loads as he car
ries them in; and making pretty accu-
rate estimate Of their quantity, or in ass
certaing the quantity contained cav
single bay or NOW; or in other modes OF
coming at near estimate otthe quantity
collected. In regard to his dairy pro-
duce, nothing can be easier than asces>
tanning by various simple trials. or by
actual weighing and measuring, the guam.
tity Of milk, or butter or cheese. So
likewise of his pork and beef. There
is no reasonable excuse for his not doing
this; and fine would only introduce some
regular system into practice and get in
TO the habit of eXactness in accounts, we
can assure him the pleasure Of doug it,
the satisfaction of Gaming at precise re.
suits, the being able when he is iu-
CURED of about his farming, or when
he hears about the farming of others, to
say in respect TO his own affairs what he
knows, instead Of sa ing merely what he
guesses, would compensate him hun
dred fold for all the trouble it may occa-
sion, and all the time it may occupy

A NEW THOUGHT.

-
EFFINGHAM County Geo, Feb. &c. 1928.
MIR. EDiIoR:-ln your last September
number, l saw communication relative
to the sun'fiower, and as you seem will
ling TO "gather up the fragments, that
nothing be lost" | take the liberty of
saying, that have been in the habit of
planting the sun.flower number of
years, to limited extent.
There are number of fences which
lead from my yard fence, TO the surroun-
ding woods-the weeds and grass grow
ing up in the fence corners, formed
ready ways for the snakes to visit The
yard. To prevent this, the hoe is used
TO keep these ways clean. and so pre-
vent the temptation TO their visits. Now.
while all this operation is going on, |
have two hills of sun-howers growing in
every fence corner; 2 stocks (or say 3
OF ~ in hill planted early in the spring.
About the time that my long forage gives
out these begin to bloom. AS the bios
SONS begin to appear, ! cut them off a
bout foot from the ground, and give
them to my horses, which eat them very
readily; leaves, buds, stocks and all
LUIS cobs'ueT very WholeSome, as
well as nutritious food. Thus the ground
that has to be kept clean, to prevent un-
welcome visitors. is made in the mean
time to yield profitably.
If. in your judgment. you think pro.
per to introduce this scrap to the compa-
ny your more useful communications,
it is at your service.

The sun flower is not only valuable
as proyender for cattle, and feed Tor
poultry, but as medicine.--A tea made
Of it, and sweeteDed with honey, is quite
as good, if not better than that made of
fax seed, III catarrhal affections. We
are not acquainted with the average
weight Of the seed ofthc sunshower, but
in our readings we have seen it affirmed,
that they yield almost half their weight
In oil and it is stated that the oil burns
as well as the best sperm, with the ex-
ception Of forming slight crust around
the top Of the wick. We wonder not
little, more general attention is not given
TO the cultivation of a plant, available
for so many economical and useful pur-
poses.
