Planting wheat-n Hills.

A correspondent the Tribune, .
writing from REGISTER, Indiana, pre-
sents the following in regard to the cul-
tivation of wieat;
II first planted last fall five rows of
wheat 18th spaces between different rows
of thee feet, two feet, and eighteen inch
cr; this was kept clean with the hoe, and
the result is as follows:
Average number of stalks from each
seed, nearly 30 number of grains to the
head, ~ to 100.
THUS if we count less than really
grew, say 40 stalks from each grain of
seed, and ~ to the fewest number of
grains found in any one head, we get at
the rate of over 1000 fold, and from
that to 3, 200 counting the highest yield
From the year 1916 to 1865, the aver
age of wheat in this and parts of adioin-
ing counties, according to my record,
was less than eight bushels to the acre,
the very best being 80 bushels. Indian
corn sown broadcast at the rate of from
one to two bushels, will yield larger
average, but when planted in our usual
way produces from 80 to 100 bushels
per acre.
My object in writing this is to bring
the facts to the notice of agriculturalists,
and to induce as many as possible to try
the experiment on as much land as they
are willing to experiment with. hope
those wishing to test the matter will gel
the wheat in before the last Of August.
| lay off the ground two feet each way
and put four grains to each hill, and keer
clean till next harvest 1t must be put

square foot, and l04 ,0S9, 900 grains t.
the acre; which allowing s9S, $50 grain,
TO the bushel, gives nearly 116 bushels
to the acre. This estimate is correc
one, based upon actual facts, and al
though it Jocks like a wild calculation

TO help to reform our present slovenl,
and extravaganza mode of wheat culture
The quantity of seed required to plan

IMPROVED COMBINED
THRESHER AND viINNOWER.

1--WE most convenient portable, easily work
Il ed. and perfectly operating machine for
threshing, separating and winnowing wheat,
rye and oats, now in use. Though compara-
lively but little known here there are about
400 OF them in use in other grain growing
districts, all giving entire satisfaction.
1t is the machine (but much improved) that
obtained the First Premium at the Montgom-
cry County Fair atthe exhibition in 1855, and
elected universal appreciation; and wherever
exhibited at a working test in competition with
Others has always taken the Premium.
The two-horse machine cleans in the best
manner ready for market, with 3 or hands,
from 80 TO 200 bushels of wheat per day, and
the one-horse from 10 to 100 bushels; occupies
but little space; is easily moved from stack to
stack and readily put up.
For Farmers who raise from 500 to 1000
bushels of wheat and who prefer to do their
work with their own force, no other machine
is so desirable
This machine is warranted to give entire sat
isfaction or may be returned at the expiration
Of a reasonable time on trial.

The Alder Bush-yaluable Hiut.

1t is not known to many persons that
the common alder bush Of the country is
a great safeguard to plants against bugs
If tried it will be found that worms
bugs, or insects, never touch the alder.
This fact was the initial point for expe-
siments of an Englishman in 1904, and
he communicated the result to an En-
glish Magazine. Accident cxumed this
old work. The practical results of the
experiments, as asserted by the English
experimenter, are that the leaves of the
alder scattered over cabbages, squashes,
cucumbers, and other plants subject Ia
the rayages of insects, eifectually shields
them. The plum and other fruit subject
to the rayages of insects, may be saved
by placing on the branches and through
the tree, punches of alder leaves.-Pro-

EMIGRATION FROM CIaCAssrA.

The Levant (Constantinople) Herald Of

information. indicating that the war which
the brave people Of Circassia have for so long
period waged against the power Of Russia
is about TO be brought to close, and that,
unless the great Powers Of Europe should see
