Prospectus of the wyandot Pioneer.

In view of the rapidly improving condition of
the county of Wyanlot and town Of Upper
Sandusky, and for other reasons not neees-
sary to 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 eoun-
ties; and in so doing l shall have to look the
citizens of the county for the support necessary
for its continuance. The lberality 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 growth
and prosperity of Wyandot county 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 NOTIONS of political and
other matters, he believes that other men have
alike privileges to their opinions. Although |
may publish political paper, it must and will
be free from ALL FACTIONS, and controlled alone
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 county and the
publication of the paper. If however, might
differ with others in opinion, that difference can
alone be changed by full conviction of my
error
The FARMER shall not be neglected, as good
" portion of the Pioneer will be devoted to his
interests. A gentleman of ability, has kindly
consented to aid me in this department of the
paper, and with his aid, l 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 vlndicate every thing calculated to
promote the greatest good to the greatest num-
Der.
With this exposition of what the Pioneer will
be, I 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 a good living
support.
JOB OErIcE.-The selection Of job type in the
Pioneer Office being large, job work of every de-
scription will be neatly and expeditiously execu-

Cntting Wheat.


r ~. The following remarks in relation to
cutting wheat, we have extracted from the
Ohio Farmer. The article should at
least receive the attention of our farming
community:
"The remarks of the writer on the sub
ject of cutting wheat before it is complete
ly matured goes to confirm my own ex-
perience, on that subject. In 1859 being
somewhat scarce of help | commenced
cutting my wheat at time when the grain
was yet soft, not milky, but about the con-
sistency of stiff dough; after cutting half
Of six acre field, we commenced
speedy operations on another part of the
farm in ripper grain; near a week elapsed
before We returned to where we began, by
which time the remainder of the six acres
was what We called dead ripe, so that we
we've under the necessity of cutting, morn
ings and evenings, when the dew was on,
to prevent waste. The result was, the
first cutting was shrivelled and made in
different flour. The latter was plump
and full, weighing sixty -four pounds
made frstrate -four and was worth six
pence per bushcl more in the market
than the former. If you consider the
above, in connection with the article in
the Democrat worthy place in the Far
mer You are welcome to it.

Fattening Animals with Cod Liver Oil.
The London Lancet gives an account of
a series Of experiments made by Dr. Jas.
Pollock upon fattening animals with cod
oil. They were conducted upon large
scale, and he found that pigs taking the
oil ate less meal, weighed the heaviest,
and brought most money per stone in the
London market, the fat being firm and
white. He fed from two ounces to a
quarter of pint daily, with good results;
but when larger quantities were used the
fat became yellow and the flesh tasted
fishy. He states that when sheep were
fed one ounce a day the fat was beautiful
ly white, and the flesh light and easy oI
digestion, and gave general satisfaction tc
the consumers. The experiments with
bullocks had been equally satisfactory. He
feeds the bullocks oil mixed up with mea
and chaff; the pigs have it mixed with
dry meal; the sheep have split beans
soaked in oil. The commonest oil cost.
in England from 2s. Sd. to 3s. per gallon
and the saving of expense is very consid
cradle. DR.. Pollock also says that the
relief to broken windcd horse from the
administration of cod oil, is very soor
perceptible.
Whether these experiments are of an,
practical value to farmers in this countr,
or not, they are interesting inasmueh a
they show the importance of studyin
the application and physiological actio
Of different food, and oils, on the anims
