Mn. EDIroR IL am a Democrat; have always
voted with that party, aud expect to do so this
Fall with one exception, and that is the Demo-
cratic can didate for Governor, Cove Salisbury.
He was not the choice of large msjtr.ty of
the Democratic party. The convention that
nominated him tor the Gubernatorial chair was
a packed convention, and bribery and corrup-
tion were the means through which he gained
his nomination. Take for instance the FIVE
delegates from Ceda? Creek Hundred Only one
cast his vote for Salisbury, aHd that one was
rewarded with the appointment of a Justice
Of the Peace, and from such a Justice OF the
Peace may the Lord deliver US. A man who
| thus through selfish motives, and against the
wishes of large majority OF the influential
men of his party can thus act, can not and will
| not receive their support. man whose con-
| science with injustice is corrupted is not fit TO
| be in the Gubernatorial chair OF the State Of
/ Delaware. Gov Salisbury has made some
| very unpopular appointments, especially in
Sussex county. Those appointments have given
| very general dissatisfaction, AID know that
| strong efforts have been and are being made to
calm the troubled waters; SO far, without sue
cess. Then again, we have the right wing and
the left wing, and unless they be made TO work
| together the salisbury faction will become II

SERD WHEAT From COLDER REGIONS. 1t is
stated that experiment has proved that wheat
brought from elevated mountain districts, or
the cold latitudes of the North, and sowu 10
more genial chimes, will mature the frat crop
several days earlier than the same variety
which has been grown for years in the locality.
II this is true it is an important fact. Grow
ers OF the best varieties OF white wheat, in the
Middle States, might draw their supplies of
seed from Canada, and by gaining lew days
in time ofripening, the nudge would be avoid :
ed. Such change of seed would be beneficial
in many respects; a stockier growth of plants
would result, and that alone would promise a

Gas LfME-Lsrge Quantities of caustic lime
are used at the gas works OF our cities In max.
ing gas, which is really worth more for agr-
cultural purposes, as fertilizer, after 1t has
performed Its Office at the gas-works, than 1t
was before 1t was used In the purifiers. But
farmers have not yet learned this fact. There
fore, vast quantities of II are thrown away and
wasted at the works, which might be used with
much profit 10 promoting the growth of crops.
In most instances this refuse lime woald cost
only the expense OF hauling. It is thrown out
OIL the purifiers 10 apowdered condition, usual
~ charged to its highest capacity with ammo
mia. An officer in the Edinburgh Gas Oompa-
ny, England, says: believe that waste gas
lime is equal In efficiency to fresh lime for
most OF the purposes aimed at In its use in
| farm lands. l sold all the lime thus produced
at agas-work in Forfarshire, for sixteen years
to several farmers, who uniformly expressed
their satisfaction herewith. One very usual
| application OF 1t was its mixture with the
large piles of weeds and tangled roots of grass
| cleared of the fields annually. On being com
posted in this way, the lime gradually killed
all the vitality of these weeds, and returned
them to the land In the way OF manure. It al
so served the purpose Of opening up stiff clay
soil, being first spread over the surface and
then Plowed down. But the chief and most
beneficial use OF gas-lime is found in its admix
ture with barnyard manure at the time 1t il
applied TO the fields This lie explained by thu
fact that the lime from gas works. while re-
tanning all its original properties as a hydrat,
of lime, has acquired, in addition, large
mount of sulphur, much of which is free an,
when openly exposed, is taken up readily b,
the oxygen OF the atmosphere. This sulph ur
50 readily parting from the lime, enters int
combination with the volatile smmonical ele
ments OF the fresh manure, retaining them il
the form of the sulphste of ammonia, TO be af
terwHrd taken up gradually by the crop to whic
IL has thus been applied 1t is in the frat an
last mentioned application that gas lime ha
proved most beneficial in those cases comm

y claysyet gasoline is an excellent fertilizer fc
