Northern Pacific r. r. Product.

The Elmira Advertiser thus speaks of the
Northern Pacific Railroad display at the New
York State Far, lately held At That place:
..PrObably the most remarkable display
Of agricultural products on, the ground is
that made by the Land Dnpartnent OF the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company. In
variety and extent it certainly had no equal.
It was not entered Tor premiums. but simply
exhibited Among the products shown
were vegetables. fruits. grains and minerals.
The land that grow such monstrous speel-
mems must certainly be of the best quality.
The product ons are from Minnesota. Dako-
ia. Montana. Idaho, Washington Territory
and Oregon Some Of the rye exhibited, as

| see Valley. There are some plums from
Oregon. five of which make "a pound and
| Bartlett pears from Washington Territory
| weighing fifteen ounces each. The barley
| Is equal to the wheat and as well the oats.
| Fhis exhibition attracted a great deal OF at
tention and comment from the practical lar
iaers of this vicinity. and the millers looked
at the specimens of wheat with eyes OF Won

The Horse disease is apparently undated IN
its ravages in the northern cities. More than
thirty thousand horses are disabled IN New
York. Six hundred cars have been withdrawn
from the street railways. 10 Boston most ofthe
work horses have been withdrawn from the
street, and the hauling of parcels is done IN
hand cars drawn by men. The railroad depots
in Buffalo and Rochester are blocked up With
freight, which cannot be delivered for want OF
drays Many of the express companies have
put up notices, mo mere freight received.
The Toronto Globe says that the disease, which
had been so widely spread in that district, show
ed considerable abatement, but was extend,
ing Eastward But few Of the cases proved IA
tai, and those from lack of ordinary care, or a
resort to quack nostrums or practices. The
disease it is added, must run its course, and
only needs attention and simple treatment dur
ing the continuance of the fever.
