most certain and infallible proofs of weak intellect and of ror- Irupt heart.
 8. He must be patriotic, as this will induce him to seek to pro-
 mote the public good, in which his own interest is involved, and he
 must have too much honorable independence of soul to be capa-
 ble of degrading himself into a slavish partisan; otherwise he will
 infallibly become the dupe of art full and intriguing demagogues, or of corrupt political aspirants, who will be sure to use him for the accomplishment of their own base purposes, to the great inju " of himself and of his country.

The Good Patron.

From the Kansas Farmer.
 To constitute an accomplished Patron, one who can pursue the honorable occupation to which he belongs with honor, with profit, and with pleasure to himself, and with advantage to his country, the following traits of character are almost indispensable:
 l. He must be a man of integ- rity, one who would scorn to de- fraud his land, his servants or neighbors, because by doing either he always injures his country.
 2. He must be man of thought and reflection; for without these he can never know how to direct his industry, or understand in what economy consists; and with out well-directed industry and a wise and prudent economy, no Patron can prosper.
 3. He must understand how to create and how to preserve the fer tility of his land, because without increasing and preserving the fer tility of his soil, his labor will gen. erally prove to be unpro6table to himself and injurious to his coun- try.
 4. He must know how to culti- vate his land in that manner which will enable him to obtain the larg. est product it is capable of yield ing with the least expense.
 5. He must understand the best modes of rearing stotk and of improving their breed, and have ambition enough to reduce his knowledge to practice; other wise it can be of no valve either to himself or to his country.
 6. He must we'll understand the distinction between true and false economy, and rigidly prac. tice the former and avoid the lat ter; otherwise hls labor will only be thrown away.
 '. He must be too wise to be vain and self-eonceited otherwise he will be above improving in his profession; and besides, vanity and self-conceit are disgusting and odious to others, and tht

Wheat Culture.

It is best to exchange wheat that was grown on freestone for wheat grown on limestone. Smut in seed wheat may be prevented by washing the wheat in strong brine and drying it in wood ashes.
 The mere sprouting ofthe ker- nal is not fatal to the seed, but heating to any considerable ex- tent, either in mows or in piles of threshed grain is ruinous. Be- fore sowing tests were made by placing soil in pan and planting in it known number of kernals to test the question of vitality. A large percentage failed to ger minate under these very favorable circumstances.
 It is always best to exchange s sed, if only for a few miles, ot any grain, but particularly wheat, which becomes, as farmers call it, tired. This has been known to make difference of from two to ten bushels per acre in the yield. A careful selection of tile most approved varieties as seed, and the certainty that It is free from smut and foul seeds, is very inn portant in the effort to grow q good crop of wheat. If seed IS old or has been heated in the mow or bin, the germs may he injured or destroyed, and in that case will fail to produce q full and vigor- ous growth of plants. Seed wheat should be graded, that is, the small kernals should be, in some way separated from the large and perfect ones, and only the best sown.
 This m ly be done by raising up the front end of the flaming mill, thus slanting the selves in the di- rection of the blast of the wind, and feeding the mill slowly, turn ing fast and blowing hard, driving half or more of the grain over the selves and thus allowing only the plump, to come forward of the mill for seed.-Exchangc.

Fattening Hogs and Reeves.

It is the wish of every one who feeds an anima. for butchering that each bushel of gram should make as much flesh and fat as it is possible to obtain from the same.
 It is we'll known that animals fatten faster in moderately warm weath than in cold weather, therefore those who began to feed freely a month or two ago have gained by it and can kill very early if the season is favorable.
 The writer has known men to put hogs on a floored pen and deny them a drop of watet. This is the worst of economy to say nothing of extreme cruelty, altho' it is SAID that they live and get fat.
 All food for animals and plants must be in solution before it can be converted into flesh, fat, fiber, or grain, so give your animals plenty of pure water lest they "dry up" as the crops do in time of drouth. It is also economy to feed out freely giving as much as can be consumed allowing them to clean up once in while. If yol have beeves to feed let them and the hegs run together, at least a part of the time, as the hogs will finish up the waste. T

Fall FallOw.

A writer i1 the N. k. Farmer who evidently understands the subject, gives the results of his experience in this particular as follows:
 I find the advantages of fall following to be, first, by the de- composition of the sod, much of it becomes available plant food in the early part of the next season. I have seen a difference of ten days in the ripening of Early Rose potatoes caused by fall following. I have known early cabbages to be two weeks earlier on land fall fallowed than on land in the same field treated in the same way in other respects, but not fall fallow- ed.
 Secondly killing witch grass and weeds, 1 have known it to save three fourths of the hand hoelng necessary for clean culti- vation.
 Third-By killing the worms, l have known potatoes dug in Sep tember, to be perfectly smooth on followed land, but in the same rows on land not fallowed, they were very much eaten.
 Fourth-It leaves the land in good condition, for very wet or very dry weather.
 Fifth-It gives one an oprortu- nity to gather as large a pile of material to be used as an absorb ent in the barn cellar or elsewhere as they may desire. Two years ago the absorbent problem looked to me like difficult one to solve. Two public highways and a rail road run through our farm, and the facs of mother earch mas been sadly scared on the side of these roads by digging material for the barn cellar. There is on the farm a small meadow in which there is first rate meadow mud. It is also good grass land. It is by the side of the railroad and near the barn. The mud cannot be dug without leaving unbroductive and unpleasant looking holes, there fore l decide to go to the fields for my absorbents. My plan is, after blowing, take every tenth furrow from the most fertile part of the field until I have piled uI as much as I think 1 shall need l pile in the barn yard, near the cellar, so that with a wheel bar row it can be taken in as wanted What was piled last fall is ir splendid order to use now. Witt the barn cellar doors, which wt take of in the summer time, made roof over the sod pile. Il was very satisfactory during the hot weather of last week to SC. the dry material absorb the liquic manure. thereby keeping the eel

Cotton Seed.


 From the Co., Operative News.l Cotton seed, which the planters are sending in such quantities to market. contain the life of the soil; the lint abstracts but little nntriment from the land, in com parison to the seed.
 How few planters reflect that they are robbing themselves and their heirs and assigns by sending their cotton seed to market, in- stead of returning them to the soil as manure.
 We are literally selling the fat of the land, in parting with he cotton seed as we do.
 Tie oil when expressed goes to the soap maker and inty a h.n- dred other uses; the oilcake goes ta Europe, chiefly to England and Scotland, to fattcn British cattle and make richet the we'll titled British soil: while the best part of the seed is totally lost for any farm use; this is the hull, so very rich in phosphates.
 The hulls of cotton seed, which are worked up in the South, as most of them are fed to milch COWS in cities or are used as fuel.
 We trust the day will soon come when, if cotton seed must be used for oil making, that they will be wyrked up near the cotton fields, so that the planter will receive back the oilcake and the hulls, to be fed to his own beeves, cows and work stock, and returned as manure to hlS SOli.
 The granges should take up the subject, and see that their cotton lands are not robbed as they now are.
 A cotton seed oil manufactory is not q very costly establishment and every nelghborhood should have one. To all appearances they are as profitable as tan yards, whisky mills, or state offices.
 One of the chief duties of the grange is not only to promote the cultivation of the soil, but to stim- ulate and educate the scultivators.
 Improvement of farm and farm CTS is the motto.
 We can no longer calculate on wearing out lands and then nov Ing west.
 The west has disappeared in the land of grasshoppers and mountain deserts.
 No farmers of the world have such materials to make ample manure of the richest quality as have the cotton planters. They can, if they will, build oil estab- lishments in their own neighbor- hoods, and get back the oilcake and hulls; not only have less corn to raise, but they will have ma nure heaps that will surpass any of the commercial fertilizers and their lands may be made more fertile each ear.
