THE CROPS.


Our farmers are cutting up their corn, and am
glad TO be able 10 say that the crop is full ay-
erage one. Buckwheat is filling finely, and the
prospect of a good crop is very fiattering. The
crop of clover seed will be large, and better than
has been for raised for several years
SHEEP.
A number of our thrifty farmers have been
buying large iocks of sheep this fall, with n
view of stock raising; and if they can prevent
them from being killed by the worthless dogs
that range the neighborhood, they will be a
source of profit to the owners for no stock the
farmer can raise pays better than sheep, proyid.
cd the dogs don't destroy them.
NEW STORE
Messrs. Enfield and Day have Just finished II
handsome store house at their mills on Deem
Run. Mr.. George Weeks has opened a store in
the house, which is well stocked with desirable
goods, which he is selling cheap. Mr. Weeks is
polite and attentive to his customers, and will
no doubt do well in his new enterprise.
FISH POTS.
hear that our fish pot men have repaired their
dams and put their traps in fine order, preparato.
ry for catching cells. The pots have to be very
close to catch the small cells They call the smai
ones grigs, and they are considered great deli.
cacy. Millions young shad, whilst descending
the river to tide water, are annually DESTROYED
by the fish pots.

CHICAGO AROUSED.
INK Herald.l

The people of Chicago have become
aroused to the necessity of doing some
thing to protect their city against fire.
We believe that they were similarly arous-
ed three years ago, but the burned dis
trict was built up and the affair was for
gotten. Chicago owes something to the
rest of the world, and it is about time
that some of the proposed safeguards were
adopted. It is now promised that the
water supply is to be improved, wooden
buildings are to be removed from the
city limits and the fire department. is to
be thoroughly reorganized. 1t is to be
hoped that these good resolutions will
not be suffered to end, like the great
conf1agrations, in smoke. 1t looks pro-
missing to find that the insurance COM
panies are now aroused as we'll as the
people, and the Board of Underwriters
have resolved to entirely withdraw the
protection of the companies they repre-
sent unless these precautionary measures
are adopted. If the insurance offices can
be relied on to adhere to their deter NINA
ton we shall no doubt behold such re-
forms in Chicago as will prevent a recur-
renee of such condagrations as those which
have twice devastated portions of the CT
ty. Otherwise we fear that the aldor of
the people may again cool off with the
dying embers.

RICHES TAKE WINGS.
It'rom the Boston Sunday Times.l

It is not only individuals who have sud
denly Increased in prosperity and as sud-
denly gone down into nothinguess there
are cities of which the same can be said.
Such a one is Pithole City, Pa. Within
one month from the completion of the first
house, this city had a telegraph office and
o hotel, costing the oW ners $4,000. In
one month more there was a daily paper
established and in the next a theatre; in
another month another theatre, and then
an academy of music In six months there
were s%eventy-fOur hotels and boarding
houses in the seventh month the city had
reached les highest prosperity. 1t then
had about $4,000 inhabitants, elaborate
water works, "a city hall and an expensive
city government Then occurred the COM
pletion of "a Iabor-saying enterprise, the So
called Miller Farm P'pe line, by which the
petroleum was sent off independent of
the labUring population. At once 1000
persons were thrown out OF employment,
while 1900 houses became useless; this
was the death blow 10 Pithole City. At
once the hotels, the theatres and the tele-
z aph office were closed, and the daily
paper gave up its ghost, while almost every
one packed his trunk and moved out.
Only nine families rema n out of a popuia-
ton of $4,000 souls, while the railroad
from Pi;hole and 0leopolis runs only one
train a day, consisting of a locomotive and
a singleycar. ewhich usually is empty but
the company isfebliged to keep running.
otherwise h e'eharter for the road would
be lost. They still hope against hope for
better times for that unfortunate city,
which, in only seven months, was born,
full grown, got sick and died. Undoubt-
led,y this is q ease unparalleled in history,
modern or ancient ; neither Egypt nor
Greece can give examples of such rapid
changes. ""

THE LOCUST PLAGUE IN THE
NORTHWEST OF THE UNITED
STATES.
STATES
From the New York Herald.J

The locust plague which has fallen on the
fair fields of the Northwe-t appears to defy all
remedial measures. unless some means ls
devised for a~rresting the eastward march OF
these swarmS of crop-devouriug insects the con-
sequences may be most %scriou-,
The nOstrums suggested by agricultural
authorities and claimed to be safeguards against
the grasshopper and locust, have proved either
too expensive or too dangerous for common
use. Paris green is no doubt unwholesOme to
the gras>hopper, but its arseuiral ingredients
are deadly to the farmer and deterioratlng to
the soil he spreads it over. Experiment has
shown that such poisonous substances cannot
be safely used unless in diluted form and in
small quantities, The responsiveness OF all
chemicals, even those which are harmless,
sends the farmers to some simple and mechanl-
Cal means of contending with the evil.
II is questionable whether the i~nvaslOns OF
grasshoppers can ever be prevented 10 some
portious Of the West. These insects are bred
10 myriad numbers on the Rocky Mountain
slopes and protected b. the snow covering of
the soil uutil the genial weather of spring ar
rives and they can go forth on their depreda-
tons. In their breeding places they cannot be
reached. But when a colony has moved east
ward and deposited its eggs in the soil they
may be attacked. 1t is said that in the South
west the spring crop of grasshoppers has some
times been cut off by deep p%lougbing and turn
ing over the layer Of sOll upon the eggs to
crush them. This expedient, especially if
repeated, may be efectual. But the great aim
of the agricuIturist ought to be to expose the
soil and subsoil to the freezing temperatures of
winter and spring. Were it possible to remove
the snow, SO that the intense cold should pene-
trate the earth, the deadly effect on all insect
life lying dormant there would be very mark
ed. 1t is not necessary in the Northwest that
this should be done ia midwinter, for the
March and April winds are frigorifo enough.
1t appears likely, therefore, that the farmers
who can turn up their fields while the cold
weather lasts would have the best prospect of
escaping tie ruinous presence Of lOcuts.
1t is strange that, with all our boast Of the
progress of agricultural science and entomo-
logy, the rural public is all in the dark and
knows not how to contend with the insect
fue.. Tho evil of this locust invasion is so
great and 50 alarming that every effort should
be made to devise a remedy. What can the
Agricultural Department suggest?
