William Young Corn.

This is the name of very new and pro-
life variety brought almost to perfection
by the continued cultivation Of Mr. VIVA
Young. of tn, Plains. The Clinton Pat
riot says:
The corn was raised from what was
known as the celebrated Mayo Gray
Corn We are informed that several
years ago. Mr. Gray commenced the im-
provement III rendering his crop prolific
by selecting those stalks having the largest
number If ears nron them aud then plan
ting the top ears, and in this way he soon
succeeded in raising fifty ana sixty bushels
to the acres. and even rs mnch as one hun
bred bushels per acre. We are satisfied.
from the samples before us, that one hun
dred bushels per acre can easily be raised
by fair cultivation upon the best hill
lands

it to the trial of our skilful housewives:
Boil pint howl full of hops s.a gallons
Of water strain aud add teacnpful of -four,
one of brown sugar. and teaspoonful of
salt. No yeast is required to raise it
Let it stand three days in warm place
when it will begin tn foam Then boil
three pounds Of potatoes. mash fine, and
add them to the Yeast. and stir the whole
together; then put it into a, jug aud corh
tight and set in cool place. It should De

il VIII keep go d amy length of tine. and
gr.w letter all the while A small lea

When this is gone, make new jug full
in the same way. and keep it corked tight,
and you need never g" to bakers or brew

Selecting Cows.

"a Vermontur" gives the following as
his rules for selecting cow:
First, | get broadside view of the an
imal, at a distance of about two rods, as |
have noticed for years that there was a
great similarity in the general proportions
Of FIRST class mixers. being very small in
grrh just back of their forward legs, as
compared with the girth just forward Of
tleir hips | have never known first
rate milker. Of any breed. not thus pro-
portioned; SO that if this form is wanting
in an ANNA, have recommended to me,
do MT care to look at her more, unless
want a breeder for some other purpose than
the dairy. For breeding eren should
want COW OF reverse proportions, /. e.,
larger gir,h forward
Il next feel the size of the milk veins,
and trace them to their entrance into the
chest. which, in superior cows, are large,
admitting the ball IF the larger fng .r; if
divided or subdivided. as is sometimes
the case, Judge Of the size of each orifce,
as care less for the size Of the vein itself
than the orifce. Next. l examine, by
sight and touch the u'ider or bag, which
must be capacious in order to hold much
milk, with teats wide apart and free from
large seed warts. or sores of any kind
then inquire how long she goes dry before
calv'Dg. a. dan't want family COW to
give milk less siian forty-Six weeks out Of
every tifIy-two; also as to the quality of
the milk; and to close, | milk her with
my own hands."

The new system of Advertising adopted b. Gee
p Roweil CO., Advertising Agents. No. 40 Park
Row, New York, is attracting good deal of at
tention.
The following extract from speech delivere
before the n. Y. State Editorial Convention, date
~ holden at Penn YAM by prominent Adrertis-
ing Agent of n. Y. city. goes to show that he at
least acknowledges its advantages.
From Jamestoen, NJ Y, Journal of Aug. ead,
Edited By C. f. BisHop, Chairman of Committee
on ADVERTISING AGENCIES.
'Mr. Pettingill spoke in opposition 10 that plan
from the publishers stand point alone. He show
ed the publishers that by this system of contract
ing they were giving lower rates than they gavs
their own home customers or others equally
prompt and good Customers !; that they were sell
ng portion Of their paper to be used to COM
plete with and underbid the other columns that
the owner Of the space thus sold could come right
in and beat he Publishers prices and take bis bus
mess away from him that if the publishers fully
understanding THIS still wished to continue so IL
regular and uabusiness-like system he (Pettin-
gill Co. should of course cease trying to get ad
vertsing for the papers at their regular rates and
go into the other system of contracting-which he
could stand 1t the printers could.
The anxiety the account Of newspapers is un
called for. There is not one in twenty which would
not prefer to receive all their foreign patronage on
this plau when it is fully understood. 1t is too
generally recognized as thoroughly beneficiakto
i all parties concerned to be injured in the least bv
any thing which may be said against it by inter-
ested parties.
Advertisers should send for circular giving
uA explanations.
