tory or miniature Westminster hall
Here is portrait of the late Joseph l.
Richardson, of Auburn, father Of Mr.
Woods first wife He was lineal de-
scendant ofWilliam Penn, Through Penn's
daughter Letitia. In the same room is
the English arms ofthe Wood family,
with motto freely translated, Fright
makes might" Main force has always
been the cornerstone of Fernando
Woods gospel.
There are two detached wings to the
left or south, one of which is an elegant
drawing-room with pictures, music and
sculpture; the other, laying-off room
overlooking the river, treated IN the
crude woods vanished, ,paneled and arch
ed To the right of the hall, in the old
Revolutionary part is Fernando Woods
library, Office and sale-a small, cozy
place with easy chairs, library shelves to
the ceiling, and an old carved black man
tel and screened CRATE fire. Here are
complete sets Of the New York Herald,
the reports of the Mayors of New York,
Valentines Manuals-indeed, acivic his
tory ofthe city, and a legal, statesman's
and business library, From this room
opens the billiard room, in the extreme
north end of the old cottage. Mr.. Wood
resides here except in session ofCongress,
the year round. He has an Office in Mas
sau street, where he attends daily from
one o'clock till three p. m. His Wash
ington city residence is one Of the most
costly and elaborate of the new residen-
ces at the capital. He has great faith in
Washington City, loves its climate, seen
cry and advantages, and, with his accom-
plished wife and daughters, dispenses eX-
cellent hospitality there.
Fereando Wood is a sort of Arevelde
among the civic dignitaries,of the New
World. An intrepid, stormy career, al
most wholly identified with the greatest
city ofthe hemisphere, and pursued thro'
defeat and success with unainChing self
confden withou colleagues or peers, he
has lived over the calamity and disgrace
of his successors, and while two leaders
of Tammany, who fought him for twenty
years are in prison, exile orobscurity,t the
solitary dictator of Mozart Hall is still in
the enjoyment Of dignities and unusually
endowed with riches, individual and vig-
orous as ever at the age of siXty-three,
and cool and philosophic in the midst
of new ambitions and on the brink of the
resuscitation of his political school.

EARM NOTES.
SMALL FRUITS ON THE FARM

SMALL FRUITS ON THE FARh'
The Small Fruit Recorder says; "To
advise farmer to grow small fruits for
market, and at the same time carry on
his farming operations, is something we
will not do But there are hundreds and
thousands of farmers who have a natural
taste for fruit-growing, and to whom
farming has become a drudgery-espe-
cially that class who are not strong, to
whom change is desirable and neces-
sary."
"To these we would say, if you are liv-
ing within three or four miles of good
home market, and cities not far away by
rail or steamboat, a change to fruit
growing will be both profitable and pleas
ant. The first thing to do, is to rent out
most of your land, or let it out on shares,
reserving your home, and say ten to
twenty acres of land for your frui'-
growing operations, and if you have a
love for the business and 60 at it syste-
matically and energetically, you will
make more money from ten acres ofland,
than you have ever made from your
farm, and that, too, with less real hard
woJk.
oPlant only of leading, well-tried sorts
that are hardy and productive, give them
good cultivation and plenty Of mulch,
and you will reap a large reward, and
too, this kind of work makes less hard
work for the women folks, and besides,
supplies the table with fruit almost daily
throughout the year"
SETTING CRAFTS,
When once understood, "grafting" is
as easy as falling off a log, Still the con-
ditions must be carefully attended to if
success is to be achieved, Stocks, or
limbs to be grated. not over two inches
in diameter, should be cut of at the dis
tance of four inches. A fine saw should
be used. Incline the saw so that the
stump will shed the rain. The bark must
be uniniured. With sharp knifesmooth
off the stump. Take casekniie, which
is as good as any, place it across the
heart of the stalk, and force down with a
wooden mallet. We use a very narrow
screw-driver for keeping open the split.
Shape the scion wedge-fashion both
ways, keep the bark intact. We make a
shoulder as far up as the scion is shaved;
it is not so strong, hut insules growth,
The inside of the bark of both scion and
stock must meet across. Set the scion.
at a slight angle spreading from each
other. When the stock is small and
only one scion inserted, place a piece OF
wood on the opposite side, If the slit
does not close up, tie round a cotton
string to keep it tight upon the graft
Cover with wax every part of the cut
wood and slit, In three weeks time go
over the gratis ana rewax if needed. 1t
is air and rain getting in that destroy
Where the limb to be grated is from two
to four inches over, it should be cut say
six inches from the tree, and from four
to six scions may be inserted,-[ Gen'aa-

INDOOR CULTURE OF ToMAToEs.-The
J. ondon Gardeners Chronicle describes
method of raising tomatoes within
doors which it says has been success
full, and is worthy of general adoption
The seed is sown about Christmas, and
by the first week in March the plants
are set out against the back wall OF
some of the lean,to wineries, IN good
compost, with ample root-room. Here
they make rapid andvigorous growth
and in the course of the season attain
to height of from ten to twelve feet,
and produce successful crops of fruit
with grea. profusion. until past Christ
mas Ia this manner early and late
tomatoes are obtained from the same
plants. AS matter of course the
plants can hardly be kept too moist,
and good dressing of crushed bones
is occasionally given. The border in
which she tomatoes are planted is only
about fifteen inches in. width. The
plants must be well fed, but the wonder
full crops they bear is the best testimony
to the advantage of liberal treatment.
The weight Of fruit obtained from one
plant in season is something remark.

size.

MuLcNlNa. WINTER WHEAT

The mhlchfng Of winter wheat with
straw has been practiced more or less
for a long time. Some years ago, a
party in McHenry County took out a
patent; but, when he came to sell farm
rights, the fraud was exposed and the
thing abandoned. But that need not
detract from the real value af the prac
tice. The cost of labor has had more
to do in retarding this practice than
any other cause. The land for the
wheat should be made fine and the
surface smooth J; and the straw may
then be evenly spread over the surface,
after the ground has been frozen hard.
1t will settle among the plants and hold
the snow evenly, and at the same time
prevent the daily thawing of the sur-
face, which Is the most damaging to
winter. Sward land is the best for
this crop in all that part Of the country
south of the snow line-that is, where
the melting Of the snow prevents an
all winter covering, protecting the
ground from deep freezing,
Winter wheat is often sown among
standing corn, in order to be protected
by the stalks. pretty much as in the
case with straw, but with this differ
ence 4: the wheat is too much shaded by
the corn during the fall, and does not
tlller out as fast as it should OF would
40 in the open ground. All those who
have straw TO spare, and have winter
wheat, would do well to give it trial ::
and they will be gratifed by an in
creased yield. A neighbor told me
yesterday that he had a very fine crop
Of potatoes grown under straw this
season, and be is delighted with this,

ear, have all you sell sheled. A hand
shelling machine will answer if your
crop is small one. II large, get one
to be worked by a horse power
Neither will cost great deal, and We
are very certain that the cobs, if
crushed, steamed and fed to your cattle
will be worth more to you in a single
winter than the price of a corn shelter,
whether you get a small OF large one.
We believe there is one-third as much
nutfiment in bushel of eobs as there
is in bushel of grain, and we do know
that COWS or oxen fed upon three pecks
of the steamed CT crushed cobs, in ad-
dition to the usual quantity of nay, or
tops Of fodder, will keep fat. Then
why haul your oobs to market to be
given away? 1t costs as much to carry
a, bushel Of cobs to the market as it
does bushel of corn. Shell your
corn, leave your cobs at home to
nourish your cattle, and through them
your land; and where you now send
one bushel of corn, you will be able to
transport two for the same money.
Look this subject fairly in the face,
consult economy, consult the comfort OF
your cattle, consult the wants of your
soil, and you can not fail to take our
advice The above from the Anaerieoae
Farmer, states the cob question rather
strongly. There is, no doubt, nutri~
ment enough in the cob to pay for
grinding it fine, with the corn, and
the price is usually enough better to
pay for Smelling; but the cob has never
been placed, by analysis at more than
ten per cent. of the value ofthe grain -

A FOUL ISLANDER.

We have known for some time past
thai the friends Of Andrew Johnson have
been attempting to bring him support in
his present contest for the United States
Senatorship by fascinating to the friends
Of Democratic aspirants for that posi-.
ton if they would help johnson IN this
race, Johnson would make it certain
that their man would two years hence
succeed Henry Cooper. 1t is said that
Dorsey B. Thomas has penetrated into
the mountains and sped along the val
leys Of the whole State on this special
mission for johnson. The rumor, or
rather SANDER, for it is nothing else,
comes here from the capital that that
incorruptible gentleman and unswerv.
ing Democrat, General W. A. Quarles,
now ia the State Senate fromS the
Clerksville district, has listened to
the aattering i~nsinuations Of Andrew
Johnson's friends on this point,
and hat he will. ON this consideration,
lend bis support and influence to the
election Of that man. We right here
brand this report as UNANIMOUSLY false,
malicious aud without foundation, and
OF criminal injustice to General W. A.
Quarles. Tennessee possesses no man
whose high sense Of honor would more
quickly resent and hurl from him the
intimation even Of such a base and dam
ming proposal than General Quarles.
We believe that there is no aspirant for
the S~eHatorship before the State Legisla.
ture who would not hold the man to q
fearful responsibility who would make
him such an approach in this matter
While we firmly believe this Of all the
gentlemen referred to. we know it Of
General Quarles.
