THE HERALD.
Wheat When to Harvest it.

A Southern farmer once told the
writer OF this, that in the previous
year he grew 800 acres Of wheat,
which, in June, had attained a huge
growth, and appeared remarkably
promising. The agricultural papers
We're then recommending to harvest
early, while the grain was in the mil
ky state. He followed their advice,
and cut the whole 800 acres as soon
as the juice of the kernel began to
whiten. The grain shrunk badly
He estimated his loss from too early
harvesting, at $4,000, The blunder,
as estimated by the writer, and by
the gentleman himself, who, by the
way, appeared very candid, and was
willing to take his full share of the
blame, fairly belonged about one,hali
to him, and the other half to the ag.
ricultural journals of the time. The
latter had blown too strongly and toe
indiscriminately, on the benefits o.
early harvesting, and be had followed
their advice to excess-had cut his
wheat in greener state than they
had recommended-had misunder-
stood them, to an extent which ht
freely confessed was inexcusable.
The truth is, there are four condi-
tons to be considered, or four peri
DDS to be noticed in the growth anC
maturing OF the grain lst the ante
milk period, while the juice is ye
greenish; I'd, the milk period, while
it is white; Sd, the dough period
while the interior of the kernel, i
crushed between the thumbs ha
the complexion and about the con
sistency of unbaked bread; 4th, tn
period of ripeness, when grain ha
become too hard to be crushed be
tween the thumb-nails. The nick
of-time for cutting wheat is at tn
end of the milk period, while th
whiteness of the milk is turning to
brownish dough color. Better EARL
or than later, but as near that tim
as circumstances will permit.
How TO CAN FRuIr.-Scald tn,

with hot fruit, and then another
Let them stand open till the han,
can be held upon them without burn
ing. AS soon as filled cut writing pa
pors the SIZE of the can, one for each
and when cool slip one over the frui
entirely, and fill up the can on th
top OF the paper with boiling juice
and seal at once. Ladies, try thi
way; the fruit will never mold, AM
will keep any time, if you don't eat
it. The papers keep the fruit from
rising to the top Of the liquid. Their
is no use of setting cans into water t
heat them. Let the fruit shrink, an
then fill up to the cover as close a
possible.

A stroke at every tree fells none.

us in all our calamitios and Affections.
that he who loses anything and gets
wisdom, is q gamer by the loss.
Conduct is at once the aim and test
of our learning, our thinking and
striving. The man lives the most per

is found in the consciousness that, in
doing the best he can for himself, he
is also doing the best he can for ev-
