Prospectus of the Wyandot Pioneer.

Prospectus of the Wyandot Pioneer.
In view of the rapidly improving condition of
the county of Wyandot and town of Upper
Sandusky, and for other reasons not neces-
sary to be mentioned, | have purchased new
press type and other printing material for the
enlargement Of the PIONEER. 1t is my intention
to attempt to get up as large and neat paper
as any one printed in any Of the adjoining coun-
ties; and in SO doing, sllall have to look to the
citizens of the county for the support necessary
for its continuance The liberality of the peo-
pie will therefore determine the success and pub
lcation of the paper, and it will be expected
that each man interested in the future gro~tl,
and prosperity of Wyandot c0ttnty will freely
lend his aid in securing subscribers.
The PIONEER, in politics, will be Democratic
and at the same time, claim nothing for itself
that will not be extended to others. While the
editor has his PECULIAR NoTIoxs Of political and
other matters, he believes that other men have
alike privileges to their opinions. Although l
may publish a political paper, it must and will
be free from ALL FACTIONS, and controlled alone
| by the editor. When say this, it is not my In
tention to say that the advice Of friends will not
be received for shall, at all times be pleased to
counsel with my friends upon all matters per-
tanning to the best interests of our county and the
publication of the paper. If however, I might
differ with others in opinion, that difference can
alone be changed by a full conviction of my
error.
The FARMER shall not be neglected, as good

interests. A gentleman of ability, has kindly
consented to aid me in this department of the
paper, and with his aid, hope to be able to rem
der the country subscribers, good service.
The mechanic and laborer will always find
the columns of this paper open for the defence
of their rights and the advancement of their
prosperity. In fact all classes will find our pa
per ready to vindicate every thing calculated to
promote the greatest good to the greatest num-
Der.
With this exposition of what the Pioneer will
be, ask every gentleman, who can, to come up
and subscribe, and get as many more as he can
to do likewise The prosperity of every town
and country depends more or less upon the pa
per of the county and that the paper may be
what it ought to be, let it have good living
support.
Jos OFFlcE-The selection of job type in the
Pioneer Office being large, job work of every de-

Trimming Eruit Trees.

We are often inquired of for compos-
ition or plaster to cover over large wounds
made in apple trees by trimming
We have none that we can recommend,
aud We have never seen any that we would
have on our trees.
But say our friends, would you not
cover the wounds where large limbs are
cut off? No. We will not have any such
cuts, and the way to avoid them is to trim
them often and never take off any large
limbs.
1t is common practice among those
who pay but little attention to their orch
ards, to let the limbs grow for several
years and thicken up till the tree cease to
bear. Then thorough trimming takes
place, and large limbs are cut away to let
the Ii sht and air in. These wounds are
not readily healed by the application OF
salve or plaster.
When limbs no larger than two inches
in diameter are cut, they would soon heal
over in case the tree is thrifty and worth
trimming. Yet when trees are trimmed
annually, there will be no need Of cutting
limbs SO large as those of two inches a.

THE WHEAT CROP IN ENGLAND.-A let
ter dated London, April 28th, in the Cour-
ier and Enquirer, says, We seem quietly to
have determined that the next harvest
shall be good one-in fact, the best that
England ever.had; and if wheat were the
only cereal grown, the expectation would
probably be well founded. The last three
months have been the finest sunshine
could make, and the wheat is looking ex-
cellcnt, but such weather is not in favor
Of either rye, oats or barley, and the pro-
liabilities are that these crops will not be
more than equal to the average.

G. II. NoRruAM gives in tie Southern
Planter, the following account of expert
ments made by him in regard to the pre-
v.ntion of smut in wheat:
Lot No. i. One bushcl of wheat SOW
ed without either brinng or lining, with
one hundred and fifty pounds of Peruyi-
an guano to the acre. The yield, thir-
teen bushels, had the smut very bad,
Lot No. 2. One bushel, brined and
lined, and sowed with one hundred and
fifty pounds of Peruvian guano. Yield
fifteen bushels per acre. This lot had
some little smut, but nothing like as bad as
No. /, which l think lost two bushels ir
smut.
Lot No. 8. One bushel brined, but no
lined, and sowed with one hundred ant
fifty pounds of Peruvian guano. Yield
ten bushels. About one-third of this 10
was smut.
Lot No. 4. One bushel washed il
clear spring water, and then lined, sow
ed with one hundred and fifty pounds 0
guano. Yield, eighteen bushels Thi
did not have the smut at all.
On all these lots the wheat was tn
same; the growth equally vigorous o.
them all. The result Of my experiment
is, as will be seen, in favor of the lime
The spring water was only used to we
the grains in order to make the lime ad
