Farmers, LOOK out for Him.

Various swindles have been from
time to time perpetrated upon the
farmers throughout the country, yet
in spite of all the warnings Of the
local press, they still continue to bite
at patent rights, cheap groceries, &c,
&c. Last week two fellows pretend
ing to have their residence in Cedar
Rapids, were perambulating this Sec
ton of the country, who, if they are
not swindlers, must be entitled to 4
good deal OF credit for resisting the
temptation which their contracts af-
ford. The following ''Order," which
was handed us by one of the supposed
victims, will explain itself:
''THIs ORDER is GOOD
for one Complete Advance Reaper
Attachment, to be delivered at Rock
ford station, and l further agree that
-- shall be entitled to order at
tachmcnts according to the conditions
Of the following agreement; that
IS attachment to be delivered
at Rockford station in good order,
and that said --- guarantees the
machine to do good work or no SALE"
That is all there is of it, except the
date and signature. 1T does not say
where the machines are manufactured
or by whom, or anything else that
would furnish 4 clue to the origina-
tors of this scheme. For the above
order many of our German farmers,
and some Americans, gave their sew
cral notes for $40, and have nothing
to show for it only a verbal promise
from the vender that he would send
the machine ordered.
If that is not one Of the most out
rageous swindles ever perpetrated, me
don't know anything about what con-
stitutes one. Strange that farmers
are so ready to bite. There are good
responsible dcIlers in every town,
and if parties would rather patronize
tramps and imposters, it is good
enough for them to get bitten, they
have been warned often enough

KeeF Implements Oiled.

An implement that's not kept prop
erly fabricated or oiled will soon
wear out In practice; not only so,
but the extra degree of labor in
draught alone, which such an omis-
sion causes, can scarcely be ovcrcsti-
mated. We need scarcely enlarge
upon this. 1t Is Il truism but too
well known and understood. Moth
ing will occasion greater waste than
friction; in fact, it is the wearer of
all things. In carriage or cart, for
instance the smaller the axle is, the
less friction will occur, hence in con-
structing either of these vehicles care
should be taken to have the axle no
larger than is required. But beside
the general principles here deduciblc
certain surface rubbing against each
other will create much greater frc-
ton than if they had been employed
or applied differently. For example
an iron-shod sleigh runner will offer
much more resistance than II wooden
one in sliding over a bcac road or
bridge, and SO of several other things.
Now the object OF oil, soap, tallow
and other lubricating substances is
to overcome, not exactly the resist
ance offered by a sled on the road,
but an exactly similar resistance met

Wool in New YORK.

There is a slight increase Of the
inquiry here and there spoken of, and
the character, a little more general,
but business still lacks vim and there
is plenty of room for a very decided
improvement. In fact, so far as
Western and State tleeces are con-
cerned, there does not appear to be
any more inclination than before
among manufacturers to anticipate
their wants, and such purchases as
may be made are the result of GER
tain pressing necessities requiring ad-
ditional supplies to work out con-
tralt is &c. 1t is claimed to be simple
folly to attempt an even fair produc-
ton at the ruling rates asked for
material and the return to be realized
on the manufactured goods, and hints
at the possibility of many mills shut
ting down entirely are again current
to considerable extent. SO far as
can be learned, however farmers do
not appear to have lost faith i'll their
ability to finally reach their expecta-
tons, and most of the large accumu-
lations in the interior are held for
pretty much the same rates asked
early IN the season. Our stock here
has increased from some extent from
various old receipts, but it is not ex-
tensive or very well assorted, and,
as rule, could not be disposed of on
present bids and leave margin for
profit, while in many eases an actual
loss would result an sales. Commits
sion lots are held OH limits fare above
present bids. About so cents seems
to be all that can be depended upon
for new Ohio, and it is intimated
that sales have been made lower.
Foreign clothing stock is still
more or less neglected and the
tone weak, with holders apparently
more anxious to operate than buyers.
Carpet Woods continues scarce and
firm. Business during the past few
days does not show sales enough for
4 record to make.-BuUetiu 14th.

About Fattening Cattle.

The price of cattle fattened for
market depends on the symmetry of
the animal, as well as the "fat" style,
as shippers term it. Good blood is
important, but not absolutely necessa-
ry to make what is termed a good sell
er In order to fatten a steer to bring
the highest market price, he must be
kept in growing condition from a
calf, and in no case allowed to go
hungry. 1t is the starving the first
and second winters which Wits and
shrivels up a steer, that causes him
to be sold at reduced price. No
amount of feeding will make him a
first-class seller, no difference what
his blood or color. An animal we'll
fed amy blood, from calf until the
spring he is three years old, will be
smooth, with bones well covered and
will sell at a profit; while half
starved animal becomes crooked in
back, bones projecting and shrivelled
up, takes the best part of the summer
to get in condition to live and will
not be in condition for market until
he is four years old, and then will
bring price which is unsatisfactory
to the producer and to every one that
handles him. This is no theory, but
a fact deducted from close obserya-
ton, as l have tested the plan for
several years. 1t will and does pay
to feed corn to calves and to year
lings. They start out to grass in the
spring strong and vigorous. You are
then able to market your cattle the
spring they are three years old,
weighing l,4OO pounds, which is
heavy enough to bring the first price.
The best steer | sold in 1872 was a
common native. He had all he could
eat from q calf, and was never hun
CRY. He was handsome animal,
and was worth more per pound than
any | shipped in 1872. He weighed
in Chicago 1850 pounds, aged three
years. l have g steer calf, eleven
old, from very ordinary
COW. The calf now weighs $50
pounds; think it will weigh, at three
years, 1900 pounds.-Drovers' Jour-
nal.

Preparation Of Bones for Use as Ma.
nure.

As some members were anxious to
obtain directions for the preparation
of dissolved bone, he considers that
it would be useful to give some adj
vice on the subject. He would rec
ommend the farmers to adopt the
following plan: Place in a wooden
trough OF tub the bones, broken into
as small pieces as possible, and pour
upon them onc-third of their weight
OF boiling water, and having steamed
the mass, SO as to render the bones
completely moist, add onc-third of
the weight Of the bones of sulphuric
acid and the common vitriol of the
bleacher; then mix the materials
completely stirring them with wood
ell shovel or old spade. The mixture
may be conveniently made In an old
sugar hogshead, and should be al
lowed to remain some weeks previous
to beng used. 1t may be mixed, if
necessary, with dry peat, mold, Or
real charcoal, or with sawdust; but
lime should not be added to it. BY
carefully following these directions
the farmer may obtain a compound
of high fertilizing value, and superior
to many of the specimens of dissoIv-
ed bones offered for sale. The addi-
ton of Stacked lime and soap boilers
refuse, which some persons OCCASION
ally use, should be avoided. BY en-
ploying the bones as described, the
manure will be found to contain a
large amount of soluble phosphate,
which very few of the advertised
manures afford.-Dr. H. Il. Hodqes,

have only marked grain destroyed
when it was entirely eat up. A great
amount of what is standing, is badly
damaged. Amount of corn replanted
after the 18th of June on ground
where the crops had been destroyed
1924 acres; a large amount of this
is not out of the ground. l made no
note of the damage done to gardens,
orchards, etc, which is very extern

number of those, from whom | gained
information, that l should have the

ask you to publish it, believing that
you will confer favor on many OF
your patrons by so doing.
