when to Cut Wheat.

The usual practice among farmers Il
to let wheat stand, before il IS cut, until
he straw is entirely changed from green
TO yellow, and the grain has become hard
and nearly or quite dry. Numerous ex.
periments have been made iu this coun-
ry, but more particularly in England, to
determine at what period Of ripening il
is best to cut wheat, having in view the
greatest yield of grain, and that Of the
best quality. 1t is well known to those
who have investigated the object, thai

of wheat, in It's early stage, is found to
be filled with milky fluid, which grad

milky state, TO one more firm and solid.
These experiments have been insIitu-

period of this change the grain should be

JONES' CORNER.

Jones has been among the spiritualiSS
be Joined circle the other night, and
had manifestations. The medium was
tall, thin, angular cadaverous individ-
dal, who looked as if, after getting up
the frame, nlture had been seized with
fit of economy, and neglected to put in
the underpinning and plastering. The
circle was mixed, being made up of ell
derly females, THIN men, with few
pretty girls. Jones seated himself be-
tween two of the last, and all clasped
hands around a table. Jones SAYS it
was delightful. He squeezed the little
hands, and when an unusually loud knock
arted the circle, the little hands squeez-
ed Jones. Snifkins, who is so skeptical
that his father don't believe him, was the
Fl to ask questions.
"Where was born % asked Sniff.
"In the poor house." Shifts turn-up-
nose waxed red.
Correct" said Jones.
"How many children have we in fam
ay7"
"Nine."
Here dispute arose as to whether
The spirit raped eight or nine. So Sniff
asked again
"How many children have 2"
"One," was the reply
Probably correct again." remarked
Jones.
Here Mr.. SniTkins arose in a wrath,
slapped his beaver on with loud bang
and retired.
"The circle is not hormonious,'' said
the medium, in deep, sepulchral voice.
Jones thought it was as lie pressed the
little hands.
''Let me ask question: said vim
egry OLD lady.

''He is"
"Are you happy, John, without me ~
Very happy.

Johns relict looked at tbs medium
The medium smiled He looked as
he had the toothache. The circle laugh
ed, whereupon Johns relict seized the
lamp and hurled II at the medium. Ii
broke over his devoted head, and left the
rcle in darkness. Jones says a spirit
ki sed him. He tried to seize the spirit,
and caught one of the pretty girls about
the waist, ,whereupon there were screams.
In the meantime Jones was aware of a
furiou engag ement on his right. A
light was produ ced, when it was found
that J ohn's relict had seizhd venerable

They were separated, when he 'me-
