McCook's Nomination at Columbus

There is trustworthy information from Co.
lumbus, Ohio, that at the late Democratic con.
Yention Gen. Ewing was really nominated in.
stead of McCook. Upon the final ballot, as an.

Two persons of prominence in the party, who
kept full and careful tally sheets, agree that
Ewing really received 243, and McCook only
22I. The mistake arose entirely from unin-
territorial mistakes In counting up the delega-
tions. By a blunder Of one of the Secretaries

was made was used twice, and hence the diff

HERALD of June 9Th. The Cuyahoga delega-
tron, it is well known, was not harmonious on
the Governor question. Messrs. Brown, Car

Ewing men, whilst Armstrong, the Heisley
pair, and Goodman, were for McCook. VIM.
Heisley was Secretary of the Convention, and
the Ewing Cuyahogans intimate that when
the second ballot was counted out there were
some "Heathen Chinee" performances with

friends of Ewing will consent to
have him swindled out of the nomi-
nation by a "game which they don't
understand"

Uses Of the Roller.
Dcorfeld, Mass. , 1871.

The uses of the field roller are so many
more than Is generally supposed, and so
important, shat a brief discussion will not be
cut of place.
All good farmers have it this is in it's
aver. 1t is cheap; any farmer can make it
&! necessary. But what does its subserve :?
the question put by many. 1t subserves
many uses, the simple roller does; its Office
= to press and smooth.
To prepare the meadow for the moving
machine is considered by many to be its
principal business, which it is not for many
meadows are freed from stones, and many
nave never had them. Still the roller is
.ound in active use on such farms
One of the principal uses Of the roller (and
We think the PRINCIPALLY is to press the roots
lf the grass INTO the soil, roots that would
ptherwIsc have suffered and some of them
vitheIcd. But press them down early in the
-pring they secure moisture and nourish-
I.cnt. ,u7ss entirely thrown out cannot be
saved but that which is only partly dis
Ilaced may be benefited. This has been
r,sted for years on the old homestead farm
Parts OF fields that were rolled started earlier
the spring and yielded better; this invari-
Fly.
How easy it is for farmers to test this.
act them get cut their rollor as soon as the
ground will admit, when it will readily bear
tie horses, and yet yielding enough to be
'yeled by the roller. Sometimes it is good
90 roll twice instead Of once: we like the
Lea and prefer it. 1t does the work more
.lectually and permits of drier rolling, for
- no case must the ground be too moist, for
L yields to the horses hoofs and dirties the
roller.
Another use Of importance in the roller is
Tie levelingof plowed land, particularly sod
= IN the case of corn, to get an even surface.
It also prevents the escape of gases thus Sc
cured Roll the way it was plowed
Sowed land is benefited by the roller, es-
rccially wheat; this needs the packing effect
oi the roller. Ii is also good on corn ground
alter the corn is planted; potatoes the same
t viii prepare the land for the cultivator and
,low.
Then there is some land that is lumpy
this needs the crushing and levelling effect o.
The roller. Even pasture is benefited by the
roller; roll early in the spring.
Then the whole farm should be rolled i
rays, though it seems not so. Careful atten
;ion will convince any one Of this, and it il
he only thing that will. No one has an ex
use OF the time spent, as it occurs whe1
"ther work is not crowding Try the roller
iest it thoroughly, and note intelligently it
feet Try it for more than year.-PrQiri

SALT FOR SwINE.-Swine are such greedy
feeders that mo-. a few farmers pay very little
attention to their feeding.
The swill-barrel is very little better than a
sink. and the poor hogs are expected to eat
any thing and every thing which Is refused by
the other animals, human and brutal like.
This short sighted treatment, however, works
it's own cure, or punishment rather, for swine
thus treated make poor pork, and often die
before killing time.
Others who are particular about feeding
their pigs forget TO supply them with salt as
they do other animals. They require to be
sailed however, just as much cattle, horses
or sheep, and suffer as much when neglected
as any of these animals. If the food be not
regularly sailed, there should be trough or
box in every sly, in which salt may be de-
posted regularly for the use of the animals.
Sailing the food judiciously would be much
the best way.

Corn IN DRILLS AND IN HnLs--At the
Michigan Agricultural College, in 1865, two
plots of land were set apart, substantially
equal in character of soil, each measuring
forty-eight rods in length by two in width
The ground was plowed May 9Th, and ma
nure was spread evenly and worked in by
cultivator and harrow. Yellow Dent corn
was planted May Dist, in. rows four feet
arart; one of the plots being planted in hills;
the other in drills. The plots were cultivated
and hoed June 18th, and again July 9TH,
the plants being thinned 80 as to leave the
same number of stalks en- each plot, Includ-
ing an equal distribution of plants through
out the subdivision of the plots As nearly
as possible, each of the two plots received the
same amount of labor in cultivation. The
stalks were cut at the bottom September 18th,
and stocked in good order. Three weeks
afterward the corn was husked and weighed
The stalks were then again carefully stocked,
and were hauled and weighed, in good con-
dition, October 18th. The corn on the por-
ton planted in hills was rather better IN
quality than on that planted in drills. But
the drilled portion produced "A 10 bushels
of shelled corn and three tons OF stalks to the
acre, against 6j - bushels of corn and 20
tons of stalks per acre produced by the por-
ton in hills agricultural Report.

CLEAN THE CELLAR.-The Boston Journal
Of Chemistry says: "Diphtheria, typhoid
and scarlet feyers, and many other most
serious illnesses, have their origin in cellars,
both in city and country and we can do our
readers no better service than to urge them
to see that, at all times, they are in dry,
sweet, wholesome condition. Why should
farmers and farmers families, living in the
country, away from the pestilential vapors Of
the cities, be so subject to attacks of malig-
nant diseases? There is a reason for it, and
we can point it out. They arise from the
indifference manifested to the observance of
hygienic rules and the violation of sanitary
laws. Cleanliness is essential to health, and
1t is just as necessary in the country as in
the city. A family living over foul cellar
is more liable to be poisoned and afflicted
with illness than city family living in its
polluted atmosphere, but without cellar or
basement filed with fermenting roots and
fruits. There is far more sickness in the
country among husbandmen than there
ought to be. With plenty of pure air, wa
ter, and exercise, the evil imp, diseuse, ought
to be kept at bay and he would be better,
if an observance of certain hygienic conditions
were maintained. Bad conditioned cellars,
small close sleeping rooms-these are all
agents of evil, and are fast making the homes
OF farmers almost as unhealthy as those OF
the jewellers in cities. Are not these sug-
gestions worthy of consideration
