The wheat crop of our county, ncluding
spring wheat, is almost entirely harvested
and by tie most correct estimate We can
make will amount to about one-thrd of an
average crop. The corn crop looks unu-
sually we'll, and the yield will be above the
average. Oats are remarkably fine, and
potatoes never looked better. On the
whole our farmers will manage to live
through the year pretty comfortably.

from freezing In the spring following the manure must be pitched off from the hills and the runners, if any, must be dug out and cut off to prevent them from spreading all over the ground, and pre- serve the hills in their places. There are but few runners tho first spring, plenty after that After the runners are re- moved, the poles can be set, two to each hill, about one foot apart at the bottom, with the tops spread apart to prevent the vines running from one pole to the other, and to make the tops of the poles in the yard an equal distance from each other. The next thing is to blow, commencing in the center between the rows, and turning the fnrrows from the hill until you get enough to each row, then turn and blow the other way after that reverse the fur row, turning toward the hill: the rest can be done with the cultiyator or hoe, keep ing the ground clean and mellow Put the vines round the poles from right to left, and tie with the yarn raveled from an old stocking. This is full of kinks, and will stretch and not damage the vine as 1t grows. The hops are generally ready to pick the last of August orfrst of Septem- sber.. From ten to fifteen hundred pounds IS the yield per acre Fl Selected.

DRAMATIC SERMON. correspondent of the Baptist Journal (Mo.) gives an account of a dramatic sermon, which, though not quite equal to the famous dagger scene of Burke in the house of commons, is yet worthy of a place among the illustrations of popular preaching.

Cutting Hay and Straw for Stock.

The practice of cutting hay and straw into chaff for any and all kinds of stock, has often been Recommended in some az ricultural papers andis good one in many respects; and it is an economical practice when fodder IS scarce, as it will go much farther when it has been cut, than if 1t be fed uncut. But let us plain little more definitely, our views in reference to cut ting hay and straw, because under certain circumstances, we believe that cutting hay into chaffi is not worthy of recommends tion or adoption. For feeding horses. that arc worked constantly, cutting the hay that they consume is one of the most eco nomical practices that can be adopted. And the reasons for it are quite obvious
 When the hay is cut up an inch or so in length, horse will be able to eat his al lowance in few minutes. Consequently digestion will be much more complete and he will derive more nourishment from his feed, than if he is required to fill his stom- aoh by the slow process of eating uncut hay; and more than this, he will have more time for quiet rest and recuperation, which is very important, than he would when the fodder is uncut What is true of horses on this point, is equally true con cerning, cut and uncut food for oxen, when they are at work. If. for example, the dinner of an OK be cut into chatf an inch, or even two inches in length, and be wet with water, and his allowance of meal be mingled with it, he willusually eat all he wants in ten minutes: whereas, were he to eat his meal and hay separately, twould require nearly an hour. Every good cat tie man will acknowledge this to Be a fact
 Then here is another very important con sideration on this point which every good teamster will acknowledge, which is this Oxen and all other animals that chew the cud, require time for quiet rumination
 This is as essential to their health and thrift, as it is for them to eat. In fact they cannot thrive without it. Now if a working OK can have threesquarters of an
 hour added to this incoming, by having his feed cut, we may rest assured that a given amount of feed willsg much further, and the animal will derive far more nourish- ment from it than, he would if he were required to consume his hay, without hay ing it cut into chaff When cows, oxen, sheep or calves, are fed wholly on good hay. and, they have as much time as they might desire to eat it, there can be no economy in cutting the hay into chaff. But when 1t Is desirable to feed straw and hay together, if it be cut into long chaff so that animals can readily take oood hand. ful in the mouth, they will consume much more straw than they could be induced to eat, if 1t were in an uncut condition. We should bear in mind, that hard, dry and uncut straw, is, sometimes, very unpalata- ble material for food for animals, as it looks too much like man making meal on the bark ofslippery elm, birch bark and wintergreens. There is great advantage and economy ip feeding straw to store ami mals; but they need some other food also, at the same 'time.- Country Gentleman.

HOp culture.

In the first place, the ground intended for the hop yard should be we'll manured, for hops require rich soil; then the ground plowed in April dragged and marked the same as for corn, four feet each way; then with hoe on every other mark each way dig hole about three inches deep, into which drop a hop root from three to six inches long; then cover with dirt to make it level. The root, if it does well, will throw up sprout from each joint. Every other hill on the hop row, and next row entire, can be planted
 to corn or beans, as the hops do not re quire to be poled the first summer Eve y fall each hill of hops must have two or three shoyels full of manure put on it, to enrich the ground and protect the roots

A BEAUTIFUL CgsroM.--In the mountains of fTyrolit is the custom of the women and children to come out when it is bed time and sing their national songs until they hear their husbands, fathers and brothers answer them from the hill on their return home. On the shores of the Adriatic such custom prevails. There the wives of the fisherman come down about sunset and sing a melody, After the first stanza they listen a while for an answering melody from of tke water, and continue to sing and listen till the well known voice comes borne on the waters, telling that the loved one is almost home.

The Culture of Millet.

There are probably but few of the cul- tivated grains that possess higher claims upon the attention of farmers engaged in stock-raising than millet. It would be extremely difficult, indeed, to assign a satisfactory reason for the general neglect it has experienced at the hands of our az
 riculturalists, and equally difficult is it for us to conceive why, when all our other available resources arc taxed to the utter
 most, so that little should be said in it's ia
 vor, and no more vigorous efforts put forth to secure. it's more general introduction. Light, sanly soil in which there is mix ture of clayey matter, and which has been well manured under previous cropping, will almost invariably produce millet, The proper time for sowing the seed is about the time Indian corn receives it's first hoe ing; or, if the season be forward, a little before that period. The soil should be carefully prepared by thorough plowingand narrowing, and if very light, by the ap- plication of the roller. It should then re- ceive the seed, from common seed sower, which furrows, drops the seed, covers and rolls the soil, all at one operation. The rows may be graduated as to distance by the character and condition of the soil if very fertile, they may be fifteen inches apart; ifnot so rich, twenty or twenty four inches should be allowed between the rows. Broad.casting is a practice which. though not destitute of it's peculiar merits, has, nevertheless, gone mostly into disuse of late. It requires much larger quanti- ty of seed, does not insure the same uni formity of appearance and produce, and acts much less favorably upon the charac- ter of tho soil-[Germantown Telegraph

How MUCH PORK FROM A BUsnEL OF CORN "A correspondent of the Prai- ric Farmer answers this question as fol lows:
 A series of carefully conducted 'exper. ments have established the following rule upon this subject: A bushel of good raw !, ungromd dry corn, fed to amiddling good breed, in comfortable quarters. without much sun aud hot allowed to oroot, and be- fore cold weather will produce 10 pounds of pork, and if, the breed is very good, 15. The same amount of fermented corn-meal, one-half more, and it cooked also, about three fourths more than the first named hence, it is easy to find how much pork k should bring to correspond with the price of corn. Take, for instance, raw corn, the most common way it is fed; pork at five cents per pound is equal to corn at fifty cents per bushel, and so on, above or below, in the same ratio. 5
