Mark Twaisl..-EHis Report Of the Farm
erS' Club.

Ex-Constable Quinn desired the club to
inform him how to make hogs root.
DR.. Slow had been Il practical farmer for
the last six weeks, and in ul the varied agri-
cultural experience no such article as hogs
root had come under his notice. What was
it9 Was it edible? Was it useful in any
way, or waSit, us he more than suspected,
another worthless humbug, devised by the
slrarpers to defraud us practical farmers? He
knew not whether it was propagated by seed
or by cuttings, but he would advise Mr..
Quinn to be shy of hog's-root, especially if it
is a ncw-hngled OF high-priced tuber.
Mr., Moker, the agricultural writer, eN-
planned the anatomy Of the hogs probOciS.
1t is designed for subtcrraneal toraging, by
a process vulgarly called roofing, to which
Mr.. Quinn's inquiry probably referred.
Being Il delicate organ, it is liable to injury.
He would recommend that Mr.. Quinn wipe
his hogs nose. II he finds it red, lie may be
sure it is tender and needs protection by Il
metallic shield. Some resort to the strategic
vice OF Inserting wire ring i'll the hogs
nose, in his efforts to remove which he would
naturally insert his snout into the soil, and
thus root unwittingly. That was rather
playing it low on the hog. and the metallic
shield was preferable OH the score Of fair
dealing and philanthropy.
Mr. Greeley exhibited Il pumpkin of his
own raising. AS it embodied his solitary
and browning success, after several years of
discouraging failure in pumpkin culture, the
club surrounded it with uncovered heads
and mingled emotions of surprise, admilst-
ton, and envy. 1t was superb fruit d; and
when Mr.. Greeley's hat was placed on it to
illustrate its size and symmetry, the hat and

other and together produced an effect so
startling, that several enthusiastic members
swore they would have known who raised
that pumpkin il they had seen it anywhere. 1t
is to be photographed by Quincy, and next
years Tribune subscribers will receive copies.
The pumpkin was the flatteliug product of
one bushel. of seed planted OH the farm on
Chappaqlla. Soon after boSsoning the vine
manifested iii inclination to wither. 1t was
therefore transpanted to 4 large tlower-pot,
founder. For some time it pined and
dropped, and they sat up nights with it, cN-
pecting that every momentwoul be its last;
but every moment turned out not to be its
last, and with careful nursing it finally rallied
and came up to maturity, as cherished and
tough pumpkin ~ ever grew.
DR.. SiNhammers suggested that the result
of Mr.. Greeiey's indomitable struggle with
this pumpkin showed how every city family
could provide Itself with pumpkin pie. He
hoped TO see the day when every window
sill in every city would be adorned with fruc-
tifying pumpkin pots. and every workman's
cottage embowered in pumpkin vines.
Thomas Dcdd, of New Hampshire, writes
to the club that he is fifty years old, intirm
with consumption, has Il large family, ten

SAHnsrorTs IN several hours
Yesterday afternoon there were visible from
this city. on twenty-five mile desert, five or
six tall columns of sand, sucked up by as
many whrwinds. At sea these would have
been watcrSpoutS, but upon the desert they
were only what we mi hit call sandspouts
The columns appeared to be ten feet i'll
diameter and one thousand feet in height.
Although they waltzcd about over the plain
for two or three hours they never came to-
gether or never lost their cylindrical form,
and when they did go down they went down
at oncc-all falling together.
These s;ndspouts are well known to all Old
prospectors and seem to indicate change
of weather. We have frequently seen in the
Forty-milc desert. east Of the lower Sink OF
the Carson, not less than ten or fifteen OF
these tall sand-columns moving about over
the plains at the same time. 1t is seldom that
they come together, but when they do they
dart forward like two flashes of lightning,and
III explosion like heavy blast ends all, ana
the two columns of sand at once fall to the
ground. Those who have not been upon our
great deserts, and have never witnessed these
grand Sandspouts or the wonderful mllaSeS.
have but little idea Of the romantic grandeur
of these apparently unintcrc>tinS wastes OF
sand.- Virginia (NeUddn) Enterprise, J"ty3.
