Photographs printed with printers
ink, on an ordinary printing press. are
one of the latest results of human skill
and ingenuity, although the principle
upon which it is based was discovered
in France some twenty years ago. Il
vas not until recently. however. that
the rractic ability of printing photo
graphs on printing presses, the same a.
wood or steel engrayings, was ascertain
ed by an Engllshman, who. few weeks
since received patent for his inventions
from the United States Patent Office.
The process is already largely in use iu
Europe for book and magazine illustra-
tons, and has received She endorsement
of many scientific societies. The in
ventor claims the special merits of ae-
curacy and cheapness, and asserts that
pictures true to life can be produced by
it for a few cents, whereas thc same
pictures from ordinary wood orsteel en-
cravings would cost from fifty to one
hundred times as much.-Erchange.
There is book iii the Seattle Library,
called 1.-The Woods and Byways of New
England" the illustrations of which
are printed by the above process, and,
being photographs, are far more true to
nature than engravings of any descrip
ton can be.

The Price of Flour.

7 An impression has prevailed that
there will be pretty heavy demand
for bread-stuff in England this spring,
and this has been seized upon by hol-
ders in this country to keep up the
prices of -four, The following para
graph from the Philadelphia Press of
the 21st inst. will show how the thing
has worked:
Looking over the last-received
Price Current of bread-stufs, we find
that American -four was selling on the
LIST of March, at the Corn Exchange
in London, at from &c to % shillings
a barrel, and a higher quality, marked
extra and double, at 81 to 81 shil-
lings. That is an average of IS for
seconds, " and under 50 per barrel for
extra and double. These prices are
in gold; to which must be added 10
per cent to reduce into our currency.
The same qualities of American -four
sell in Philadelphia, where they are
manufactured respectively for $40 and
Sl3 currency. The British dealer, who
has to pay freight and insurance in ad-
dition to cost, doubtless makes living
profit, yet sells American -four very
considerably under American prices,
1t would almost pay to import Ameli-
can -four from England.

THE New York Sun says: The diff
culties thatsurround the system of trial
by jury are exciting more and more
the attention of English jurists. Even
so,great an authority as the Attorney
General, Sir John Coleridge, has been
enlisted on the side of radical reform
in that direction. He has recently in
troduced bill to reform the proce-
dure in jury cases. The amendments
that he proposes are, we believe, too
sweeping to find favor in conservative
England. First, he proposes in all
except capital cases to do away with
the ancient twelve jurymen, and to
reduce that apostolic number to seven.
Of these seven majority are to deter
mine the question IN issue; and the
trial is to go on even though two of
thesejurors are absent from sickness.
Certainly this would do away with the
endless disagreements of iuries, which
are now the cause of so much vexation
and expense to suitors. 1t would
also greatly diminish the burden 70
Jury duty, and make it unnecessary to
summon the large panels now required.
On the other hand, the opponents of
the bill insist that it would lodge too
much power in the hands of our four
men, and that the bribery of Jurors
would be resorted to more frequently
than at present. Whatever the fate
of Sir J. Coleridge's bill, it is probable
that at no distant time the method of
trial byjury will be modified both in
England and this country, at least in
civil cases. By making the agreement
of ten men sufficient, the obstinate or
purchased twelfth juror who appears
in so many cases would become an I'M
known quantity. 1t is undeniable,
however, that to do this would be to
Overturn fundamental principle of
English jurisprudence which has sur
vived the test of many centuries of
practical application.

Rust in wheat.

Smut in Wheat.

Many people are afraid of sowing
wheat because they think that it is
an uncertain crop, liable TO be de-
stroyed by smut or rust. i have
grown wheat for many years and
though Il have sometimes suffered
from rust, until ] hit upon changing
my seed every year, / have never
had a particle ofsmut, and no one
need have any if he will only take
necessary precautions. / always
soak my seed in strong brine, not
bluestone water, which / belive is
good too, but / prefer the brine be-
cause i know it TO be good. put
the seed in a big barrel or hogshead,
half full of the strongest brine l. can
make, and stir it with stick until
every grain becomes saturated. 1
then skim off all the light grain and
foreign seeds which float upon the
surface, leaving nothing but heavy
sound wheat. / then pour off the
the brine and put it in q barrel, with
holes i'm the bottom covered with a
strong net, which will keep in the
wheat and allow.the water to run out.
| then pour into the barrel a suffi-
cient quantity of thin whitewash
lime and water which runs through
and gives every kernel coating of
the whitewash. After this is done, /
spread out the seed to dry, and then
it IS ready, for the sower.5 Since /
have done this / have never, had a
smutty ear i'm my wheat, and those
of my neighbors who have adopted
my plan have had similar expert
ence. IT 4oI no. p - itt ~ a. 'h
Since i have been in the habit of
changing my seed every year, that is
using seed brought from distance, L
have escaped the rust. I cannot ex-
plain the reason of this. can only

NotesFrem an Old Culturist.

No plant will grow to full maturity
i'm a soil entirely destitute of lime.
Yet crop of oats, according to
Boussingalt, requires but 81 pounds
of lime to the acre; wheat, l6 pounds;
but the great lime-devOuring plant,
red clover, requires 20 pounds. Al
though soils generally contains lime
enough for the assimilation of the
crops grown yet the limestone soils
require the action of burned lime to
desolve the insoluble silicates they
conta as well as to quicken the so
luton of the inert or undecomposed
vegetable matter in the soil.
The best wheat-growers on the cal
careous soils of Pennsylvania lime
their clover-fields heavily before they
plough the heavy sod; and it is said
that red clover will grow luxuriantly
under even heavy dressing of lime.
But the more vegetable matter the
soil contains the more lime it will
bear: on the other hand, too much
lime is injurious to a poor, thin soil.

Rearing Year in Apples.

|. Take scions from-the tree in 1873

will Aet fruit i'm alternate years.
2If you cut off of thrifty trees the
growth of 1873 in the last of July,
leaving three or four buds that would
force out the next years buds and
gain one year.
8. If you remove all the blossoms
on one-half or your tree in the bear
ing year you will have fruit on that
half the odd year. These things i
have done successfully.
l have now in bearing the Victory
apple of the odd year produced in this
way; next year the scions of the last
year will bear on the regular year.
