The grand old Mother Of States is stil
in the glory Of her days and majesty her
genius. In the past, she has sent forth
her brayest sons to battle and in the pre-
sent, her mightiest to the political arena.
The latter have carried on q most niagnif-
cent campaign and sent back bowling the
Northern Congressmen who came to illumi-
nate the Old Dominion. Ore OF these pesi-
patetic reformera, Ella by name, left the
State, after having been numerically dis
comfted by Hunter, Baldwin and Stuart.
just before departing, he said he chad no
idea there were such smart men in Virgii
MIA" A correspondent Of the New York
Times observes:
aIf the Republican party desire to make
respectable battle ID; Virginia, they must
send better orators than E.a-for there ore
still some giant debaters left in the Old
Dominion. It won't do to send any such
small people to Virginia. They cannot
swim in these waters and as they are bey-
ond their depths, they will surely be swal'
.llowed up and drowned. Let your giants
come to meet giants and do battle on equal

4 such Goliahs as the Conservatives are able
Ito bring into the field"
Senator Yates was implored to come

OF Shorthorns, the herd of Shedd and
Nansicklen were the principal feature
although there were few other contri-

grades.
OF Dcvons there were two thorough :

OF sheep the show was small there

IN TIE SUGAR ORCHARD.

Every good farmer has much to to in
October, but on no account should he
defer putting his sugar establishment in
first rate order. Many man wastes
enough every two years to pay for q
we'll built sugar house, with good arch
and chimney that he would have were
it possible to built it in the season when
he wants to use it, but, like the old man
who never shingled his house because
in fair wea, her it did not need shingling,
and in foul he could not single it, he
goes on from year to year, and from bad
to worse, hoping that some year sugar
ing and good fair fall weather will both
occur at the same time when he pro-
poses to build sugar house.
Every arch should be adapted to the
cvaporator to be used upon it, and
there is just now great deal of talk
about "the evaporator,N as if there were
but one kind. TO thos, prudent, care
full men who attend to their boiling
themselves and keep everything in APP
ple-pie order, the Corey (sometimcs
called Cook Evaporator-"the evapora-
tor''-with its accompanying feeder, il
very satisfactory apparatus, but for
those individuals who employ irrespon-
sible and careless help they are not al
ways economical.
Persons having old style Russia iron
pans, not SO large as to sag down into a
sort ofbag, nor given to leaking through
the seams, may, by the aid of Smcad's
feeder and syphons, make Il continuous
arrangement quite as good rs the Corey
Evaporation. Mr.. ii. a. Soule, of Fair
field, whI is well known rs one of the
most extensive and best sugar makers
in this County, last season used four old
Russian pans, with Smead's feeder and
syphons, and found the apparatus to
work quite perfectly. He run the appa-
ratus five days and nights without ces-
sation so far as the feeder and the first
two pans with their connecting syphon
were concerned the other pans We're
concerned; the other pans were rcmov-
ed from the arch and cleansed every
twelve hours, while the syrup was dip
ped out at intervals, as it accumulated.
Very small pans connected i'm this
way are quite as good in every respect
rs the more expensive cvapOrator,n
and the sugar maker is thus enabled to
work in his old pans. If he have large
old pans, he may put them at the head
of the series to receive the cold sap and
supply the finishing end of the series
with new, narrow ones but if he is set
ting out anew, our advice, founded on
much experience and more observation,
would be to get all narrow pans, without
seams in the bottom, or get "the cvapo-
ratOr."
In building an arch for the sugar es-
tablishment too much care to get the
foundation below the reach of frost, and
thoroughly drained, is hardly possible.
1t must be remembered that large fire
in the midst OF snow and ice helps mate
rally to swell the amount of water that
finds its way into the foundation of the
arch, and many an arch has been ruin
ed by it.
The details of the subject of sugar
making will come more appropriately
under the "Work for Spring Time"
