We are glad to see that the Blda'
Register has a HUo agricultural depart
ment edited by James R. Cary Esq,
who shows ability and tact in its
management. In publishing the pro-
ceedlngs of our State Horticultural
Society, the editor says:
One Of the noticeable features Of
our State horticultural Society is the
fact that Northern Nebraska Is not
represented in its deliberations. This
"a not the fault of the society but
shows that our section Of the State
has been altogether too negligent in
such matters. We pledge Our friends
Of the South that this defect will be
remedied another. year, when the
decisions of the society viii be more
conclusive and authoritive for the
whole State than they could be when
only q small portion of the State Is
represented. We note with pleasure
that the society abstained from
recommending any list Of fruits. IL
Sc too early in our horticultural expe-
rience, in all but the Southeastern
counties, to render such lists reliable.
The members, however, compared
notes on the several varieties Of APP
pies, giving the results Of their indi-
vidHal experience and observations,
The proceedings are very interesting,
and we shall notice them o fully
hereafter, when they are all publish
ed.-Secretary Furnas is publishing
them in successive issues Of the
Nebrdska Advertiser, and will soon
embOdy them in pamphlet form.

The Wool Interests. - A ding
TO statistics collected, the wool
grown in this country in 1860 was
go, 81, 343 pounds, while I'm 1868 it had
risen tO'adOUt 177 900, and during the
same time the increase of domestic
wooden manufactures was from $6S,
900. 600 to S175, 200, 900. This ratio far
outstrips the ratio Of the consumption
Of this kind of goods, and unless the
impOrtations Of wool and wOOlens are
greater under the present high tariff
than they were under that of 1860, il
would seem pretty clearthat the low
price Of wool must, partly at least, be
aseribed 10 the fact that W0Ol-grOwing
Is OverdOne.
Another fact that may help to &C
count for the slow sale of wooden
goods Is, that large amounts of Gov
eminent goods are still in the mar
ket. The sale Of these goods in New
York city alone has amounted to
millions Of dollars during the last
two years, and vast piles Of them are
still In the hands of the retailers all
over the country, and more or less of
the army blue, and other styles of
army goods, r worn everywhere.
These goods represent the surplus
thrown upon the market under the
unnatural st mulus given to manufac-
turing BY the war, and not till this
surplus is worked off and consumed
viii the wooden business assume q
normal and healthy condition.

Sheen Sin Mats.

The Western Rural gives the fol-
lowinS directions for preparing sheep
skin for mats:
Make strong sOap-suds, using hot
water, and let it stand till cold; then
wash them in bold water till all the
soap is out. Next dissolve half a
pound each of salt and alum in a little
hot water, and put into a tub of cold
water sufficient to cover the skins
and let them soak twelve hours; then
hang over a pole to drain. When
well drained strdtch carefully on q
board to dry. Stretch several times
while drying. Before they get en-
tirely dry, sprinkle on the flesh side
one ounce. each Of pulverized alum
and saltpetre, rubbing it in we'll ;
than lay the flesh sides together and
hang n the shade for two or three
days, turning them over every day
till perfectly dry. Finish by scraping
the flesh with q blunt knife to remove
any remaining scraps Of flesh, and
then rub the flesh side with pumice
or rotten stone and the hands.
Very beautiful mittens can be made
Of lamb skins tanned as above.

A Cheap Paint for Fences. Etc.

Two quarts of skim-milk, eight
ouncs of fresh Stacked lime, six oun-
ces of boiled linseed oil, two ounces
white Burgundy pitch, dissolve in the
oil by gentle heat. The lime must
be slaked in cold water and dried un-
Til it crumbles into fine powder then
mix it with one fourth part of milk,
adding the oil and pitch (miXed) by
degrees. Stir the mixture adding the
remainder of the milk, and then add
three pounds of Spanish white.
Other colors may be used instead
of the Spanish white if necessary.
This paint is highly recommended
by English gardeners for painting
gates, sheds or other farm buildings.

Live and Dead Weirht Of Animals,

The amount Of meat obtained from
q domestic animal sold by its live
weight Is very variable, and expert
ments have been made in Liverpool
20 ascertain the proper allowances to
be made. From the statistics to be
derived from the slaughter houses or
abbatOirs Of Paris and Brussels, il APP
pears that the race and the condition
Of the animal, besides many other
circumstances, affect the result, and
that certain animals yield as much as
seventy per cent. of meat, while
others only give fifty per cent. The
mean weight Of meat produced, how
ever, Is calculated at ffty-eight per
cent. Of the live weight in beef cattle.
In the case Of sheep, the apprOpra-
tio1 Is from forty to fifty per cent.
From experiments made, it appears
that the different products obtained
from oxen and sheep r as follows:
An OK Of the live weight Of 1922
pounds yields, meat TIA pounds;
skin, 11O.2; grease, IS; blood, 55.1
feet and hoOfs, .; head, IL; tongue,
$50 lungs and heart, 1888; liver and
spleen, N.05; intestines, 66.15; loss

total Of 1922 pounds. The products
from sheep weighing 1902 pounds

long liver. The fruit Is a bright red. very large,
sweet, juicy and delicious; keeps a long time; bears
transportation well; and better than all. It is not
subject to the attacks Of c~urculie. 1t has proven a
success wherever tried.

To Edwin Lyon, Butler, Penn, we
are indebted for a pair Of "Ralston's
patent improved SheepShears." They
are the neatest, most centennial and
practical inventions we have seen no
possible chance Of cutting the animal
while shearing. Ifthe sheep would
hold a mass meeting, they would with
out doubt vote the invention a'sIlver
medal, and in some way, at least,
evince their gratitude.

How Much Wheat for a Barrel OF
FlOUr.-The Michigan Farmer says
that at the annual fair of the Dubuque
County Agricultural Society in 1866,
a premium Of $50 was offered for the
best barrel of flour made from winter
wheat, and also the same made from
spring wheat. A firm entered one
barrel of each, accompanied with the
statement that sixteen bushels of
winter wheat yielded three barrels
and one hundred and three pounds of
four-at the rate Of four bushels and
fifteen pounds of wheat to the barrel.
Offspring, fifty bushels yielded eleven
barrels Of flour, being four bushels
and thirty-twO pounds to the barrel.
The wheat was Of fair quality and no
more.
