The corn is about all gathered, and
without doubt the heaviest ever garn-

edge of the oldest inhabitant, for we
have almost a ''sea" of corn of the

ALI ABOUT EsTRAY ANIMALs.-A

ALL ABOUT EsTRAy ANIMAks.-An
exchange gives the following timely
hints about stock which has strayed
oit:-"The season is approaching when
estrays are taken up by farmers, and
many of them are now held rs estrays
while the taker-up has failed to COM
ply with the law. Every one should
bear in mind the fact that the Estray
Law is special statute; and in order
TO reap any advantages from it, the
persons who take up an animal must
proceed according to law. The Law
says that within five days from the
takingsup, notices must be posted in
three public places in the Township
where taken up, and within ten days
the taker-up must go before Justice
of the Peace in the Township and
make oath that the notices have been
posted, and where, and that the de-
scription of the animal was given, and
that no marks or brands have been
changed or made since taking up; af-
ter the above steps have been taken.
then the appraiaeinent follows, and
the Justice can inforn, the taker-upall
proceedings necessary to be had.

RErIGlous.-Rev William Wood,
whose successful labors here and
at Otiey last Winter made his name
familiar To our readers, has been en-
gagged 10 work as an evangelist In the
Central Iowa Baptist Association. lie
is now on the ground, and expects to
begin at Knoxville, assisting Rev.
MIR. Frey
AT Otley on Sunday last, the new
Baptist house of worship was dedica-
ted. The building is beautiful and
commodious affair. Rev. VIM. Wood
preached the dedicatory sermon, and
several other Baptist ministers took
part in the services. The sum OF $500
was raised by the congregation to pay
off the debt and furnish the house.
A correspondent adds: 1.-The house
is a frame structure, 38x50; Is #. story;
built by Wingtield & Norris in neat
and substantial manner, and is an
honor 10 the community. When we
take into consideration the fact that
less than year ago there were
but three Baptists in the place, and
that there il now church there OF
seventy-five members; house OF wor-
ship built and paid for, worth $1,000,
on a lot worth $500, and one OF the
most beautiful sites the eye can look
upon. il all speaks well for the citizens
of Otley. Monroe Record, 18th.

a STRANGE OCCURRENCE happened
in Pleasant Grove TIP. last Saturday,
OF which Rev. Mr. Reed gives US the
particulars. a man whose name. he
thinks, is McGee, had butchered a
hog, and got some of the blood on his
coat-sleeve; and when he went into
the stable to hitch up his mules, the
mules smelIed the blood and became
furious, raving and snorting, and at
tackled Mr.. NJ. with great violence,
like wild animals, striking and kick
ing and biting with all their might.
They inflicted severe wound on his
head, and doubtless would have killed
him had he not crawled under the
mangcr, where they could not reach
him. He was finally rescued
from this dangerous situations; but
the mules continued 80 mad that, up
to Sunday evening, when Mr.. Reed
last heard, no person had yet ventured
to attempt to unharness them. The
mules had always been perfectly gen
tie and docile before. We never heard
of similar case.

LYNCHIEG rural town
of Vandalia, brought to public notice
by the monthly appearance Of the
Vandalia Visitor, has been agitated by
rumors OF charges of defalcations, rob-
berries, and such things, which are only
the proper adjuncts of great cities.
Skillful manipulation Of public senti-
ments seems to have centeredsuspic
upon the person of Hart BUGGY and a
self-constituted committee proceeded
to hang him up by the neck TO scare
him into confession of his supposed
crimes. Though hung till his life was
seriously endangered, still he declared
histinnocence. His captors then re-
leased him OH condition that he would
leave the country. This BUGGY did
do; but his relatives, VIM. Hays,
Isaac Porter and others, took up the
case. and commenced prosecutions
against Sidney Williams, Mayor of
Prairie City, Thos. Wood, Constable,
Jacob Osborne, and several others, re-
puted members Of the hanging com
mittee. They were arrested by Sheriff
Hawk on last Wednesday and taken
to Newton, and were to undergo ex-
animation on Thursday, the result OF
which we have not learned Monroe

KNOXVILLE, IOWA,

ED. VoTER:-As cry of "hard
times" is ringing in our ears from ev-
cry qnarter-and nowhere, suppose,
is it more frequent than among farmers
-one might question, Does farming
pay?" This indeed is an old question;
and we might ridicule the idea Of such
a thing being possible-as has often
been done--or we might answer yes.
But for the figures:
Wheat field of 10 acres cost for seed
ing, harvesting and threshing. 5000
and yielded l56 bushels; which at 81
per bushel, gives excess over cost Of
SIS. 80, or $3.50 per acre.
Dat field of acres cost for seeding,
harvesting and threshing $43.57
yielded 235 bushels; which at 30 cents
per bushel gives profit of $26.9S, OF
or 81 40 per acre.
Corn field of % acres cost for plow'
ing ground, planting, cultivating and
gathering Sl02.S0, and yielded 96(
bushels; which at 20 cents gives $500
of an excess over cost, or 1888 per acre
Our best hog raisers claim to Make 10
lbs. of pork from bushel of corn; then
we have $500 lbs, which at 3 cents
gives S2S8.00.
These calculations are not based up
on supposition, but upon actual meas
urement, and accounts kept with
crops, entries being made while tend.
ing them.
think the idea that 1.-THE farm don't
pay is rather erroneous one, arising,
as all such ideas do, from ignorance OF
the facts as they exist. Of course, if
neglected, the farm will not pay; but
properly conducted it becomes mine
of wealth to its independent possessor
He who by the pillow would thrive,
Himself must either hold or drive
