Too Much Seed.

\ man pays one dollar for one pound of
some new variety of potatoes cuts it,
plants one eye in hill, gives extra care
and cultivation, and reports great yield
of an extra quality of potato. Now, sup
pose we take the same course with some
old variety, and report the result
One of the most successful potatOe grow
ers l ever knew in Ohio says he finds one
eye in n hill always enough. Hon. 7. G..
Jones, of Delaware, Ohio, in an agricultu-
raj essay on Delaware County, says one of
the most successful corn growers instructs
his dropper when he comes to the inter-
section of the furrow, or hill: There do
you stop, and stand there, till the day of
Judgment if necessary, until you there de-
post three grains. Mark you, not three
to six, but three no more, no less"
In n field of wheat one-half sown short,
one and half bushels per acre, yielded
twenty bushels per acre, the other half one
and five-eights bushels of seed per acre,
yielded sixteen bushels per acre.
One field of corn, four to six grains OF
seed per hill, yielded forty bushels Thy

other field, three to four grains per hill
yielded fortyfive bushels, large ears, pei

For some time 1t has been known in
private that Messrs. Cowan, McClung. d
Co., were negotiating for number of the
county bridge bonds. Yesterday the con-
tract was concluded and signed by both
parties, placing so bonds of the denomina-
ton of $500 each into the above gentle
mems hands at par value.
Where men of such character and BUSH
ness qualities as the aforesaid, exhibit con-
fidence enough in the value of the bonds
to take up one-third of the whole issue,
there must surely be money in them.
Men of capital, if they would be in time,
must apply soon before they are all gone.
Indeed, we know of no securities which
we would rather own.

giving ground coffee in some bran, salted
to suit the taste. We once bought pair
of Chester White pigs, and at six weeks
old one of them commenced securing. All
remedies failed to check it. We gave it a
few spoonfuls of strong coffee which eff
