FULTZ WHEAT.-In Yates county, New
York, careful experiment was made by a
correspondent with FultZ and Treadwell
wheats, with reference TO testing their re-
spectiye merits. During the summer of
1872 an eight acre field of gravelly loan,
which had been cultivated the previous
year in fodder corn, was summer fallowed.
The field was MANFRED in 1871 and 1872
in the latter year the manure plowed UNI
der at first blowing. Upon plat of one
eighth OF an acre of this ground five quarts
Of Fultz We're sown broadcast September
10, 1872. Treadwell was drilled upon the
remaining part of the field September 18th,
at the rate Of two bushels per acre. The
former was harvested July 9TH, and yield
ed four and quarter bushels. or thirty
fold upon its seed the latter was harvest
ed July 18th, and yielded twenty bushels

Anecdotes of Pubic worthIes

From Lippincott for November.l
George Washington-One day in fit
Of abstraction the juvenile George cut
down Bushrod favorite cherry tree with
Ratchet. His purpose was to cut--and
run.
But the old gentleman came sailing
round the corner of the barn just as the
future Father of his Country had started
on the retreat.
Look here, sonny" Numbered the
stern old Virginian, who cut that tree
DOWN.
George reflected a moment. There
wasn't another boy or another Ratchet
within fifteen miles. Besides, it oc-
Cured to him that to be virtuous is to
be happy. Just as Washington senior
turned to 60 in and get his hersewhip,
our little hero burst into tears, and,
nesting among his fathers coat tails,
exclaimed, Father, cannot tell lie.
1t must have been frost.
MY son, my son" stammered the
fond parent as he made a pass for bis
offspring, when you get to be first in
war and first in peace, just cover your
back-pay into the treasury, and the
newspaper press will respect you"
Abraham Lincoln--Early in the war
party of distinguished gentlemen from
New England called on Mr.. Lincoln to
urge the appointment of a certain Mr..
Brown to the post of quartermaster. The
President, who was amusing himself by
splitting portions of the staircase of the
White House into rails, received them
cordially. They stated their errand in
an earnest and respectful tone, and
calmly waited his answer. Mr.. Lincoln
drawing himself up to his full height,
and clapping the spokesman of the par
ty on the shoulder, began to tell story
about a dog fight he once saw in Ken
lucky.
By and by il had gradually grown
dark; several hours had passed away,
and neither dog appeared to get killed or
to gain any advantage over the other.
One by one the party had dropped out,
till the leader (who did not wish to dis
turb Mr.. Lincoln's hold on his shoulder
was LETT alone, trying to conceal yawn
and TO look interested. Suddenly, Mr..
Lincoln, with that peculiar smile on his
MI OdA pGulGl Eau
talk about, but cant paint, remarked,
" By the way, my friend. I'm sorry for
Brown, but gave that appointment TO
the other man yesterday"
Daniel Webster-The following anec-
dote of the great Massachusetts states
man has never before appeared in print:
Zone day Clay, Webster and Calhoun
met upon the steps of the Capitol. Mr..
Clay ventured to remark, in his most
affable style, that it looked like rain.
Calhoun looked wise, but said nothing
Evidently he took in the whole situation
at a glance. 1t was a crisis for Webster
Carefully laying his thumb behind the
third brass button of his blue coat, he
gazed from out those eavernous eyes,
and grandly uttered these prophetic
words, No, gentlemen, the American
people will never forsake the Constitu-
ten. We shall have fair weather"
And so it proved.

A remarkable scene was witnessed at
the Queen County (lrelsndl Assizes a
few days ago. Chief Baron Pigot was
about TO sentence a murderer to be
hanged. The trial had occupied forty.
five days, and every one wished to see
the last and most painful scene over.
The prisoner seemed also TO desire TO
have the affair finished soon, for when
the Judge had put on the black cap, and
had got as far as the name James
Moore" he was interrupted by the pris-
oner, who requested him to be in hurry
about it, for he was not a bit afraid.
Unheeding the interruption his Lordship
continued his solemn speech, when the
prisoner again interrupted him, shouting
out in a gruf voice and in no amiable
manner, Come, make haste, | am in a
hurry" 1t was in vain that the Judge
attempted to explain to Moore the awful
importance Of the words which were
spoken. He did not care; all be wanted
was to have the matter ended; and, said
be, If you amt quick I'll 60 down be-
low, and you may talk to yourself" All
through the speech Of the Judge the
prisoner continued to interrupt, threat
ening that if the sentence was not soon
pronounced, he'd pronounce It him
self. AT last, seeing that il was impos-
sible to make any sort Of impression
upon the brute, Baron Pigot, in the usual
form, sentenced him to be hanged on
the 8th Of October.

During tho reign Of the yellow fever
term wagon freighted with food, pro
visions aud stimulants for the sick and
needy was constantly seen in those To-
calitios where the dread monster seemed
to stalk the fercest. The presiding &c
MUS over that wagon, it is needless to
state, was Franklaud. But at his side
firm and steadiast in the good and noble
work, stood David Thilman, ever ready
and always on hand, never hinching;
and TO see Thilmau was 10 know that the
chief was near. His constancy and at
tention cannot and will not be forgotten,
and has gained for him among his friends
and acquaiutances the proud sOubriquet
Of Franklaud's shadow. To those who
witnessed the horror Of the past six weeks
this will speak volumes, and TO those
who we're more fortunate to be absent,
we can only say that it means visiting
the sick, attending to their wants, giving
comfort to the distressed, providing for
the widows and the orphans, burying the
dead, lowering like an angel in the
abodes Of the poor and the lowly; in the
houses Of poverty and sorrow, giving
hope to the dying land consolation to the
living. The many who have witnessed
these heroic acts, self-imposed and try
ing, will ever associate Dave Thilman
with FARMLAND, and thousands, in year'
to come. will remember with feelings ol
lively emotion the visits Of FARMLAND
and bis shadow.

The son soon found the destiny in store
