Tie Kanatcha NoHey.-Mr. Black
icy reports that Col. II. Il. Bib, is
engaged on large and very profitable
contract on the Chesapeake and Ohio
r. II. His contract amounts to per-
haps 5000, 900. and We are glad to learn
that he will make very hAnsomcly on
it.
Nearly the whole of the Salt and
Coal business is conducted bymen who
live in distant parts of the Union and
they have their own stores from which
they pay their laborers The entire
proceeds OF the business goes out Of
the Valley, thus bringing practically
nothing to the people of the County.
Yet it is the richest Valley in West
Virginia.

Grass Seed.


That old veteran farmer, Levi Bartlett Of
Warner, n H., says word in favor of home.
made grass seed, in the Country Gentle
man
:" Last spring herds grass seeds were scarce
aud dearor than ever before known here
eight dollars per bushel was the current price
-and full supply could not be obtained at
that price. In my drives, was very glad to
see that our farmers were saving enough for
next springs sowing and some to spare.
Where farmers save their own seed, they know
what they are sowing, aud are also sure Of
reaping as they SOW. But in much Of the
grass seed they purchase, there are frequently
seeds Of noxious weeds that sometimes are
yexatious and bard TO eradicate, During the
past fifty years l have had lots Of vile weeds
introduced into my grounds from Joaghtea
grass Seeds The man that will get out grass
seeds for sale, that are foul with the seeds Of
Canada thisiles, oxeye daisy, charlock, long
leayed plantain, wild carrot, sorrol seed, &c,
&c. does not do by others as no would they
should do by him. 1t has cost me days aud
weeks Of time in freeing my fields Of the vile
weeds that have been introduced among the
grass seeds have purchased.

This butter has almost nationol reputa-

quantities to private parties at New York
aud Washington for high prices. A promi-
nent manufacturer living not far from the
city, gives Mr.. Lyman, Of one Of the agricu.

Of the course aud care Of its production.
What he says is quite worthy the attention of
all dairymen and women | find make nay

mown hay, | cut fine, moisten aud mix in
corn meal and wheaton shorts. Indian meal
/ regard as important in every butter dairy.
Next to meal | regard shorts. | prefer to

time. | do not use roots unless it be carrots.
My pastures and meadows are quite free Of
weeds. | cannot make this grade Of butter
from foul pastures or a low grade of hay
The temperature Of his milk room does not
vary much from So degrees. The milk is
skinned clean, and as each skinner is put
in the cream pot it is stirred in the pot and
the churning is done once u week, summer
aud winter. Just before the butter gathers,
bucket Of ice cold water is thrown into the
churn. This hardens the butter in the small
particles and makes firm grain. In work
