A coy was caught in the act of stealing
dried berries in front ola store the other day,
and was locked up in dark closet by the
grocer. Then the boy commenced begging
most patheteally for his release, and after
using all the rersuasions that his young i'm,
agination could event, proposed: Now il
you'll lei lie ont and send for my daddy,
he'll pay you for the berries, and lick me bes

At the recent State Fair lot of
Russet apples of last years growth
was exhibited, in an excellent state of
preservation. They were grown and
put up by Delos Randall, Esq who
gave the process OF keeping them.
They showed no signs of decay when
exhibited, though boxed up nearly
one year ago. Ordinary grocery boxes
were used for packing A layer of
saw dust was placed in the box. and
then layer ofapples, and so on alter
nately till the box was filed. The
boxes were then placed on ledge Of
the cellar wall, and kept dry and cool
till taken TO the Fair for exh bition.
Ii il true that this variety OF apple ia
less prone to decay than any other, yet
there is little doubt that the same
treatment will act benefcially on all
the winter varieties. In all cases
whore apples are intended for summer
use, care in picking and packing is
requisite, since a bruised apple will
decay much sooner than one that ia
put away intact Saw dust may be
easily obtained by most farmers, if
seasonably attended TO, and at trifing
cost of time and money, OF course
this should be Thoroughly dry, else ID
will heat and affect adversely the fruit
IL 10 intended TO preserve.

Uniting TImher.

If oak, hickory or chestnut be fell
ed in August, in the second running
of tho sap, and barked, quite a large
tree will season, perfectly. and even
the twigs will remain sound for years !;
whereas that cut ia winter, and re-
manning until the next, las thick as
your wrist, will be completely sap
rotten, and will be almost unfit for
any purpose. The body Of the oak
split into rails will not last more than
ten or twelve years. Chestnut will
last longer, but no comparison to that
cut in August. Hickory cut in Au-
gust is not subject to be worm eaten,
and lasts a long time for fencing.
When | began farming in 1902, it was
the practice TO cut timber for post
fencing in the winter. White oak
posts and black oak rails, cut at that
time, would not last more than ten or
twelve years. In 1903, / began cut
ting fence timber in August. Many
OF the oak rails cut that year are yet
sound, as we'll as most of those of the
chestnut LII the bark is not taken
off this month. it will of itself peel
off the second or third year, and leave
the sap perfectly sound. The tops of
the trees are also more valuable for
fuel, than when cut in Winter or
Spring. | advise young farmers 10
try this experiment for themselves;
and ii post fences will not last twice
as long, forfeit all my experience as
worthless.

GROWING TEA IN GEoRdIA.-A
writer in the Southern CultiuatOr,
Liberty County, (Ga.,) has been ex.
perimenting with the China tea plant
with flattering results. He had fifty
plants or shrubs, from six to seven
feet in height growing this season.
from which he gathered six pounds of
excellent tea. He is of the opinion,
based on the experiments made by
himself that the tea plant can be sue
cessfully cultivated in all the States
bordering on the Atlantic and the
Gulf as high up as North Carolina
and as low as Texas. This plant does
not require strong soil, and can be
grown upon that unsuited to cotton.
The editor of the CaLtiUdtor in foot
note says: Our correspondent has
favored us with sample of the tea
prepared by him In appearance,
fragrance and flavor, it precisely re-
sembles the fine article Of Chinese
black tea. IF our plantation can pro-
duce tea as finely favored as this,
with as little trouble as Mr.. Jones
states is required ID the process, it is
the most profitable crop we can grow.

AGRICULTURAL.


Nove.a Der is the last autumn month
and the season OF preparation for
Winter. True. almos: everything We
do from Spring till Fall, has some
reference TO preparation for this bleak
and dreary season, but the immediate
and specific preparation Is made dur
ing the mournful, yet beautiful even
ino Of the year, November.
The early frosts have nipped the
folia @. and the warm Indian Summer
dava have ripened the corn, which
should be carefully gathered and
housed before December, or your
aching fingers will pay the penalty Of
youf proerastination. While engaged
In gathering the corn crop, you should
by all means select your seed corn for
next year. When you come across a
particularly fine, large ear, with
straight rows, and full, closely set
grains, strip it down and leave the
husk oft, or in some way so mark it
that You can find it again. These
ears should be hung up in dry place
for seed next Spring. Corn selected
from stalks having two or more ears
are more apt to produce double
cared stalks again. This was our OBJ
servation when a boy.
Roots OF all kinds should be gather
cd and housed, or buried, before SO
we're freezing sets in, and pumpkins
and squashes cared for.
Stock Of all kinds should be we'll
fed and cared for at this season Of the
year, for if they are in good condition
the severe winter weather will not af-
feet them so injuriohsly Cattle and
sheep should be housed during stormy
nights at least Poultry should have
warm aud dry roosting places, as well
as plenty Of food. Hogs intended for
pork this Fall should have plenty of
room for exercise during the day and
a dry place to sleep in during the
night. This with plenty of good food,
will insure healthy hogs and good
pork.

Butter Making In the winter.

Some families are quite successful
in making butter in the Winter seas
on. Mr.. Scott, of Vermont, believes
that it may be made about as profit
ably when the COWS are fed with the
right kind Of hay az when they run
in the pasture. But there are so
many who think differently, who
don't have no luck in the Winter"
that milk enough 10 make many tuns
OF butter is wasted every Winter. A
correspondent Of the Rural Ameri-
can, whose wife has made butter every
Winter for ten years. and who has
himself done all the churning in a
common dash churn, seldom occupy
ing more than ten or fifteen minutes
in the operation, condenses the secret
of his success, so far as the manage
ment Of the milk and cream is con-
cerned, into the following pithy SEN
fences.
Cows should be kept warm and
clean, and in addition TO plenty of
sweet, early cut hay. milch cows
should be treated with warm Stops
and bran mashes, varied by roots and
meal. They should have plenty Of
pure air and exercise, and be sailed
regularly once week. The stables
and cows must be we'll cleaned before
milking, and the treatment of the
cows be ruled by patience and gentle
ness The milk, when strained,
should be brought to "a scaldinp heat
and set in "a warm place, where it will
not freeze The cream should be
taken off before the milk thickens,
and be kept in as cool a place as it
can be without freezing. Cream man
aged in this way will be very thick,
and when put in the churn needs di-
lutiug, which should be done by add
ing warm milk till, when we'll mixed,
the temperature of the cream is snch

Brownlow's Knoxville Whig. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1866-1869, 1866-09-05

On Saturday, 25th Aug, we attended an interest
ing discussion at Urippens Mill, eleven miles from
this city. There were two hundred and fifty voters
present, and large number of ladies. The APP
poinsment was made BIZ Beriah Frazier, the treach-
erous individual who elected to the Senate from
this and Roane counties as ra,stGkerous radical
OF the large audience, We were credibly informed
that but two persons present endorsed johnson and
the anti Congress party. Frazier would have had
few hearers but for the understanding that Major
General 10. Cooper and Judge l.. G. Houk would
speak Both these fearless and able champions of
the Union cause were present, and replied TO Fra
zier. The detected countenance of the feeble brain
less advocate Of johnson showed concusiyeiy that
Hcuk and Cooper did not leave /" CREASED spot Of
him. Would TO God our loyal brethren of the whole
State could have heard on this occasion the able and
eloquent appeals of Houk and Cooper Tor the pres
eryation- of our glorious government. Would they
could have heard the enthusiastic snd unanimous
shout of applause which greeted the declaration OF
Judge Houk that "Andrew johnson is as vile
traitor as JEFF. Davis or Benedict Arnold"
No candid Copper-J ohnson, after witnessing the
proceedings of this meeting, would hesitate to ac'
knowledge that the real people of East Tennessee
are against Andrew johnson, provided the large
audience referred TO are an index to the sentiments
of our people.
We regret we have not space TO give full report
of the speeches of Cooper and Houk. As these
gentlemen intend making thorough cenyass Of
East Tennessee, all our people will hear them.
