GREELEY's PUMPKIN.-In a recent
Humorous View of the Farmers
Club Mark Twain gives the following
account of Horace Greeley's struggle
with a pumpkin:
Mr.. Greeley exhibited a pumpkin of
his own raising. AS it embodied his
solitary and crowning success, after
several years of discouraging failure in
pumpkin culture, the club surrounded
it with uncovered heads and mingled
emotions of surprise, admiration and
envy. 1t was a superb fruit, and when
Mr.. G.'s hat was placed on it, 10 Illus
srate its size and symmetry, the hat and
pumpkin seemed so perfectly adapted
to each other, and together produced al
effect so startling, that several enthusi-
astic members swOre they would have
known who raised that pumpkin il
they had seen it anywhere. 1t is to be
photographed by Quincy, and next
years Tribune subscribers will receive
copies. The pumpkin was the flatter.
ing product of one bushel of seed
planted on the farm of Champagne
Soon after poisoning the vine showed
an inclination to wither. 1t was there
upon transplanted to large flower-po
and removed to the town residence o.
its founder. For some time it pineC
and dropped, and they sat up nigh
with it, expecting every moment would
be its last, but every moment turned
out not to be its last, and with careful
nursing it finally rallied and came VI
to maturity, as cherished and tough {
pumpkin as ever grew.

RUSHING FOR TEXAS.


The people of Texas are becoming in
terested in railroad connection with the
older States, and the papers are discuss
ing which route will first give them
such connection. The Texas Central
Railroad is building vigorously toward
Preston, while our NJ. X. s. T. is NOV
ing just as rapidly. They make some
pleasant contrasts between railroad
travelling and ''the tedium, the nausea,
and the danger of the sea, or the delay
and hardship of land voyage" An
equally pleasant sensation will be afford
ed by the presence of live Yankee cor
poration building railroads, and making
all rich. The following article from
the Houston CTexas) Union gives some
idea of the interest manifested down
there in railroad connections:
The Missouri, Kansas & Texas Rail
way Company are making long strides
towards Texas, if we may credit all we
hear. Col. Northway, their chief en-.
gineer, is surveying the line, which runs
Gibson, Perryville, Preston, Dallas
Waco, Austin, and on toward the Rio
Grande. We are interested in its speed
lily getting to Preston after that it may
go where it pleases, and as fast as i
pleases. It already runs daily trains Il
Chetopa, which is at the southern Dor
der Of Kansas. 1t has the right of way
through the Indian Territory, and ha
already built fifty miles of its road
within that territory. The Dallas Her
aid learns that it is now pushing for
ward with the road at the rate of mill
a day. If that speed is anything lik'
kept up, this railroad will reach Pres
ton on the Texas line during the yea
1871. We do not believe the Texa!
Central Railroad will reach Preston il
that time, but we do know that the Tex
as Central men have all along said tina
they would reach Preston before an.
Kansas road should reach there. w,
wish a race could be got up between tn
two roads for prize of. 100000 70
the road that reaches Preston first. w
sincerely believe that the people inter
ested would be making money by put
ting up the stake. At any rate, we be
kin to see that we shall soon have rail
road connection over both our northern
and eastern borders with the railroad
of the United State generally. Go
speed the day.

ADVANTAGES OF FALL PLOUGHING.
By Ex-Gov. HoLBRooK, OF VERMONT.

Without celebrating the many strong
points in favor of fall ploughing, few
OF the prominent benefits may be brief
ly stated as follows:
1st. August and September is a good
time to turn over bound out soil land,
and manure and re-seed it at once to
grass, obtaining crop of hay the fol-
lowing year.
I'd. October and November is an ex-
eellent time to break up sod land for
planting the following spring.
Sd. The weather is then cool and brac-
ing, and the team strong and hearty for
the work: while the weather in the
spring is more relaxing and the team
less able and the spring work being
always hurrying, it saves time to dis
patch as much of the plOughing as pos
sible during the previous autumn.
4th. Sod land broken up early in au-
tumn will be quite free from growing
grass the following spring: the roots OF
the late overturned sod being so gener-
ally killed by the immediate succeeding
winter, that not much grass will readily
start in spring.
9th. The frosts of the winter disinte-
CRATE the ploughed land, so that it read
lily crumbles in fine particles in the
spring mellow seed bed is easily made.
The chemical changes and notifications
resulting from atmospheric action dur
ing winter develope latent fertility in
the upturned burrows, which together
with mellowing influences; materially
increases the crop.
9th. Most kinds of insects are either
wholly destroyed, or their depredations
are materially checked by late fall
ploughing, especially the common grub
and the cut worm.
7th. Corn stubble land may be
ploughed late in the fall, and thus be
ready for very early sowing in the
spring, therefore going far to secure q
good catch of grass, the roots of the
new seeding getting hold well, or being
well established before the drouth OF
summer comes on.
8. Most land in New England needs
deeper ploughing than has generally
been practiced. When the subsoil is
fine-grained, and unctuous and close, Oh
where there is hard pan of good quail
ity, then ploughing may be ut once re-
sorted to with decided advantage
When the subsoil is poorer, the plough
ing may still be advantageously deep
ened by degrees, say an inch at each
new breaking up. But in by far the
majority of cases, deep ploughing may
be practised at once, indeed it may be tho
rule with safety, while shallow plough.
ing may be the exception. Plough say
nine, ten, eleven or twelve inches il
November. The subsoil turned up viii
grow several shades darker by spring
The frost and atmospheric influence o.
winter viii mellow the soil. Inorganic
elements and all the latent fertility viii
be made more active for benefiting the
crop. In the spSing spread the manur'
in or mingle it with the soil to thu
depth say of four inches, or q littl'
more or less, and you have the yer.
best attainable condition for realizing
good crops. Deeper ploughing MAJ
thus be practiced than would at al
times be safe and expedient, If thu
ploughing is delayed till spring.-Prac
deal Farmer.
