The vote in Vermont has resulted
IN the election of the Grant ticket by
the same majority within small frac-

you do, but YOU don't
Why 1 asked.
"lleca1se. when q horse comes in aif
wet with pcrspiration. you lei him
stand in the stable and dry with all

him, from his Aedd 10 his feet. Then
we scrape him down and blanket hlm.

Chas. Sumner has fed the frowning

the Atlantic to do Europe. He would
never have taken such a trip had it NOT

He prepared speech to deliver in

The speech contains nothing new, and
doubtless his friends prevailed upon
him not only to forego the delivery of
it, but also to sail for a foreign shore.
Vain, foolish, proud, arrogant, naughty

eosr OF FENCING.

la the United States the acres Of
laad feaced number 2J0, 5O5,6lA. There
are l16ly, l99, ,426 rods Of fencing, aud
the total cost Ct the same is 81, 49,
93l. New York li6s l69, ,556, ,749 rods
Of fencing, costing $22S, ,875,6ll. Penn
sylvania Is next on the list with lJ6..
H7, ,82l rods of fencing. estimated as
WORTH III ,S34, 1874. Ohio is next, with
fencing valred at $I55, 5,5SO,673. Then
comes Illinois, Kentucky. Indiana and
MISSOURI. To the total cost Of fences
we must add the cost Of aMnual re-
pairs, which 10 estimated at @93, ,9G3,-
1877. To the capital fund invested in
construction we must make another
addition, that of interest, which. at six
per cent, amounts 10 $l04, So, ,gs5.-
This is startling exhibit. The fences
Of the United States are worth as much
m all the farm animals in the country.
Or. as q writer on statistics has terscly
put it: "FOr every dollar invested In
live stock another dollar Is required
for the construction of dlefenses 10 re-
sist their attacks on farm production"
In view Of the facts here set forth, is 1t
not important that farmers meet and
devise some plan to do away with the
excessive use Of fences?
SOWING sRAss SEED ALONE.
Mr.. Charles L. Hint, good authority
on grasses, reitelatcs what is now be-
coming pretty generally known among
our best farmers, rs to the how and
when TO SOW grass-sced. He says:
Early fall seeding without grain
should be adopted In practice, in pre-
ference TO seeding in spring.
!. As general rule, it is poor ccono-
my to take any grain crop either with
or without Immediately preccsling the
seeding down to grass. That the grass
being the ultimate and paying crop. it
is bad practice to reduce the land by
the draft which grain crop makes
npOn it.
Whenyer from any local reason it
becomes desirable to take crop oil
spring grain, il Is more economical to
SOW the grain alone in the spring, and
to plow up the siubble aud sow the
grass seed alone in tl,c early fall 81
'.In cases where 1t seems desirable
TO SOW grass seed in the spring, il Is
better to SOW il alone and let il take lis
chance, without compelling il lo strus-
glc for existence under the disadvaM-
iagA OF q grain or any other crop.
