HoV to Put Up FruA.-By those who
have had experience the following methods
Of putting up fruit are recommended:
LIST, Put the fruit in stone jars and cover
around the jars with twine.
ID, Put the fruit in stone jars and tightly
paste paper over the top; then cover with
cloth securely tied around the jars and gum
the cloth to keep out the air.
Both ways are simple and economical
The first surely is. Jars for this purpose
may be obtained at MARTIN WIRES Pot.

Mccormick SeJRake.-Last Monday
we accepted an invitation from Mr.. I. l..
FRENCH, the very efficient Agent of the Nc.
Cormick Reaper and Mower, to ride out to a
field south of town and witness the working
Of one of these machines with self raking
attachment. The piece of grain operated on
was barley, and as i: was very badly lodged,
was thorough test Of the efficiency of the
machine. Notwithstanding the bad shape o:
the grain the rake worked beautifully, laying
off the bundles at regular intervals in straight,
compact form, ready for the binder, and far
better than could have been done by hand.
Those who witnessed its workings that day
are satisfied that it is all that is claimed for
it. The chief objection that has been urged
against self:rakes is their liability to get out
of order, but with this machine everything
connected with the raking apparatus is so
simple, compact and durable, that there ap-
pearsd to us hardly possibility of its get
ting out of repair, and our opiaion of its
good qualities is confirmed when we under
stand that out Of two thousand sold and op-
Grated last year there was only one Lreakago
reported. The manufacturers Experimental
for long time before they attached the rake
to the machine, and satisfied themselves of
its durability and practicability before offer
ing them for sale. The price of sef.rake
is only thirty dollars more than hand rake,
and at the present high rates Of labor, far
mer would save this increased cost in one
season. .... ... - s
