hope that the example will excite emu

A farm on the head OF the 0pequon,
known as Mr.. NeilI's farm) had been
rented out for many years, nearly half a
century perhaps, and was so overrun with
thisiles and briers that the tenan's Could
scarcely make the rent. For the last len
years. !, had produced an average not ex-
ceeding 8 bushels per acre. In this APP

the briers aud ihistles, ploughing The land
8 inches deep. The neighbors told him
lie could not Produce anything, but his
labor was rewarded by yield of 80
bushels Of Corn to the acre. This he al
tributes 10 the deep ploughing and care
ful cultivation. A pretty good commence
ment il must be allowed.
| Mr.. Latshaw then ploughed his Wheat
ground in the moL,hs Of July and August,
eight inches deep, giving it the second
plous hing abou the middle Of September,
and narrowing in his seed. This method
Of working The land gave il body end
moisture-an upon 20 acres, thus titled,
he has averaged 90 bushel. Of Wheat ia

tivaiion in the early part of the season.
the troublesome crop Of briers and thisi'es
has been entirely removed, and the ex'
traorainary result has been attained-and
this without clover or manure. Mr.. Lat
shaw considers the Valley lands equal tc
those Of Pennsylvania, and generally

sufficient. Chance. on her determination
10 go through every street, brought her at
last to the one in which he who had won
her heart in slavery, was living in good
condition. The crowd drew the family
10 the window; his servant recognized her,
and Gilbert Becker took to his arms and
