The Wool Industry.

Hon. Horace Capron. Commission
err of Agriculture, in his report tor
1869, thus discusses the question of
wool growing:
"A period of depression has been re-
allied by our wool.growcrs during
the past tour years, which has been
shared by all other wool growing
countries, but which has been greatly
modified and relieved by the opera
ton OF the present tariff, which has
prevented the utter prostration of this
necessary branch OF industry in the
present, and assured its rapid recuper
alton in the future. a sufficient guam
tity of carpet woods, not produced in
this country, has been admitted from
abroad at low rates o. duty; sutfi-
cheney OF most grades of clothing woods
has been produced at home and sold
at lower prices than when foreign
woods were admitted at home and sold
at nominal rates; and All impetus has
been given to the production of comb
ing woods, which will not only greatly
benefit the textile interest, but improve
the quality and quantity of mutton in
the markets OF the land.
Dissatisfied with present receipts
and gloomy over future prospects,
many farmers have sacrificed a portion
Of their fiocks during the past year.
1t is estimated that four millions of
culls were Killed for pelts and tallow.
American agriculture, in all branches,
is peculiarly subject to periods of ele-
walton and depression from the impul-
sive action which stimulates over pro.
duction at one time, followed by panic
and abandonment Of the temporarily
Improbable pursuit. The wool inter
est has often suffered, not merely from
ordinary causes of fluctuation, but
more disastrouslv still from tariff
changes, frequent and extreme as well
as unexpected. 1t is essential to the
welfare of fins important industry that
the present moderate schedule of du-
ties should be continued without mod

Whitney said there once came
under his notice an instance of
a cow that had no salt during
an entire summer, Consc-
qlence was the milk and but
ter fell off in quantity, and had
a bad odor besides. Mr.. Cur
It's gave it as his opinion that
salt sh Guild be fed in small
quantities. Mr.. Lyman had
noticed that certain good dairy
men keep a good sized chunk
Of rock salt always in each man.

The Farmer.
How long will it be, ere the Farmer will see
What man Of Importance he is;
From the king on the throne to the peasant a,
home,
All are dependent on him.
And yet have seen, when in town have
been,
That few think Of speaking to him;
He's looked on rs dirt. as ma +, little WORTH
One with whom they don't care to be seen
looked and felt hurt, for how little he thought
What these grand city people were doing;
How they're determined 20 take every cent he
can make,
Nor care if he has to go begging.
Heavy tax you must pay, nor went hear VIVA.
you say;
The dollars they want, and will have them;
So you must rise with the lark, work from
light until dark,
And then they will leave you worth nothing.
o man have you thought, its deal your own
fault:
For while you are working and striving.
They're working their brains, to swallow your
gains,
And feel sure you won't try to oppose them.
Brother farmer come out, and know wha:
they're about,
If yon do nj, you'll be sorry ere long:
Meet together each week, to read and to speak
And you'll soon see what. right and whats
wrong.
Then your friends will soon know, their games
are nc 50,
Though you mean to be loyal rs they;
You must have what is right, for you've gol
too much light,
To be nailed as they like you to be.

Fruit.

The folks who pretend to be-
lieve that you can't raise fruit
in Iowa are especially invited
to read the subjoined paragraph
from a recent article in the Bur-
lington Hawk-eve:
David Leonard, ESQ, of this
town, has been the recipient of
a silver medal given by the
Pennsylvania Horticultural So
ciety atits autumnal exhibition,
in connection with the Pofnolog-
zeal Society at Philadelphia,
September 18th to 18th, 1869.
This medal was gained by ta-
king the best Of the contribu-
tons of fruits from the fair OF
the Des Moines County Agri-
cultural Society, and a few
others picked up about town.
The medal is not accurate in
recording what it was given for,
Mr.. Leonard having displayed
no peaches, but n varieties OF
pears, and 81 varieties ofapples.
We presume Mr.. Leonard will
exhibit this we'll earned trophy
at the meeting of the state Hor.
ticultual Society, January 18th,
at Dcs Moincs.
1t will be remembered that
Kansas gained the gold medal Of
this society after much effort,
and a State appropriation fol
that purpose of $500. Dcs
Moines county has gained the
silver one with scarcely a trial
We could certainly have done
much better had a little effort
been made. 1t was not a good
year for fruit, either, here.
The Agricultural Depart.
ment at Washington took one
Of the many bronze medals
awarded, after considerable eff
fort, we presume. Des Moines
county got the only silver med.
al awarded, and did not hall
try, either.

SALT FOR STocK.-John Rice,
Of Elliottsburg, Pa, abstains
from use of salt in his own food,
and thinks he benefits his health
thereby. It has occurred to
him that it might be the. same
with his horses and cattle.
However, he would not decide
without consulting the Club.
Professor Nash said that stock
cannot be kept in the best con-
dition when salt is withheld.
DR.. Smith related that in coun-
tries where the people do not
have salt, parasites appear and
destroy life. Mr.. Dufer quoted
the experience of a very intelli-
gent dairyman who proved re-
peatedly that his cows cannot
do without salt. Professor

wax on the limb, leaving the split open
for the water to run in every time il rains.
The growth of the cion ultimately heals
up the split on both sides, SO that it holds
the water until it dries out; this kills
more or less of the wood in the heart of
the limb by the time it heals over, often
taking four or five years Then what
dead wood there il, a. soon as 1t is ex-
cluded from the drying effects Of the air,
abeorbs the sap of the limb and at once
begins to decay, often killing the tree be-
fore it has borne fruit enough to half pay
for grating.
Twill now give my plan and mention
some of the advantages over the old plan.
cut the limb slanting 30 that the angle
shall be about two-thirds as long a. the
limb il thick. being careful to have the
slant on the under side of the limb. Then
center, never setting but one cion in
limb, and seldom cutting q limb over an
inch through, being governed by the
shape wish to give the top. generally
put all the cions into top the first year.
This can be done where the limbs are cut,
above the small twigs. or leaf branch,
which will take part Of the sap the first
year; then cut them off as soon as the
growth of the cion shall require it.
l think it will be readily seen that
by cutting the limb slanting and setting
the cion on the upper side, there is
no chance for the water to remain
long enough to kill the wood. 1t will
be seen, also, that by cutting the limb
where it is small that It will sooner grow
over, and the cion will sooner grow to the
size of the limb cut of. Every one who
has had much experience in grating
knows very well that it requires good
deal of judgment and skill to form good,
healthy fruit-bearing top, and none but
those who understand the business should
be allowed to cut limb from tree, either
to trim or graft it.-Cor. B0ston Cu,ticascr.
