CHRONICLE OFTcH.
ANoxvTLLE, Tenn, Aug. 81 1875 J
There was perhaps greater quantity of
wheat sold in this market the past week
than during any week since harvest We
are also pleased to note an improvement in
quality, yet thoughtless farmers continue
to bring wet and filthy wheat to market in
stead Of drying and cleaning the same at
home before offerngi it for sale.
We have no improvement to note in oats,
either IN price or quality. Our dealers APP
pear to let the entire oat crop go by the
board rs all offered with few exceptions
are more or less damaged. Corn remains
inactive. There seems to be an ample sup
ply of bacon. Eggs are in better demand
and prices have advanced. Butter is dull
and the market oyerstocked.

EVENING SONG.

Close, little weary ewes.
The day at last is over
Tonight no more surprise
Shall they discover.
Nor bird nor butterfly.
Nor unfamiliar flower;
Nor picture in the sky.
Nor fairy in the bower
Rest, little weary feet.
The woods are dark and lonely;
The little birds rest sweet,
The owl is watching only
No buttercup is seen,
Nor daisy in the meadow,
Their gold and white and green
Are turned to purple shadow.
Fold, little busy hands,
Day is the time for doing;
The boats lie on the sands,
The mill-wheels are not going.
Within the darks6me mine
Are hushed the spade and hammer
The cattle rest supine,
The cock withholds his clamor.
Still, little restless heart
BE still until the morrow,
Til then thou hast no part
In either joy or sorrow.
To new and joyous day
Shall little birds awake thee;
Again to work and play,
With strength renewed betske thee
Good Words.

ISOLATION, call of % per cent. of the
stock subscribed was made upon the
stockholders. The stockholders will
therefore govern themselves accord
ingly, and hand over the amount due
upon their respective subscriptions to
the Treasurer, q. p. Yoe, at Messy

matter is absolutely necessary to the

depends our success or failure. The

1.-THE Life of the Flesh is the Blood .

This is an admitted fact 1t is obvious
that when the blood becomes corrupt the
whole system is corrupt also, and those Or
gans which are weaker from functional de-
rangement will suffer most. The large
majority Of female diseases proceed from
this cause. The true policy is to direct the
remedy to the source Of the disease. 1t is
in this way that DIR. TUFTS Sarsaparilla
and Queens Delight acts. Its specific effect
is on the blood. Il purifes, yitalizes it,
expelling all distemper from the system.

EX.PRESIDENT JOHNSONS ESTATE
No VIII or Insurance Policy DiscOv-
cred

M VIII or Insurance Policy Discov-
cred.
From those conversant with eX-
President Jobnson's private affairs, we
learn that it is not known as yet that
he made a will previous to his death,
Or rather that any such document is
now in existence. 1t is believed that
he wrote more than one, but it does
not appear that any one of them is in
force. 1t is known that he incurred a
heavy loss from the failure of Jay
Cooke, and it is possible that this
change in his estate made it necessary
that he should change any will he had
made previous to that time, and it is
probable that he never made will af-
forwards, owing to the uncertainty as
to what his actual losses would be.
Those who have the custody of his
property and papers know nothing of
the existence of an Insurance policy
on Mr.. Johnson's life, and they do not
believe that he had any such policy.
Mr.. Johnson's estate is not large, but
sufficient TO keep his surviving family
above want. His manner of living
was simple and economical, aud his
family, no doubt, learned the same
lesson from him that he practiced all
through life.

board, designating the division OF
fields or plots by dotted lines. Then
the fields are represented by numbers,
and every employee is required to stu
dy the map Of the farm until he un-
derstands quite as we'll as the proprie-
tor the location OF every plot of ground,
and the most convenient way of reach
ing the more remote fields with team.
Besides this, a otation-of-crops sys-
tenn adapted to the soil is properly ex-
planned to the workmen, so that they
may be able to cooperate with the
proprietor in executing his plans.
When the fields of farm are of ir-
regular boundaries, and of different
sizes, some being twice or thrice as
large as others, there is no more con-
venient time in all the year than win

make light rod-pole, sixteen and a
half feet in length, with which to
measure the boundary lines, then make
calculations of how many fields or
plots of given area in acres the farm
will make. If practicable, let every
field be laid out in rectangular form.
If the fences are not in the right place,
let them be removed and be placed in
straight lines. On farms where stock
of all kinds are kept in the field, eve-
ry fence must be horse-high, bull
strong, and pig-tight. Many other
kinds of farm labor may be performed
in winter, which will greatly facilitate
operations during seed time and har-

than 20 bushels of lime per acre, and
manure extensively as practicable.-
At the last working of the corn, or af.
ter its removal, SOW rye one or two
bushels per acre.
ID year-About the 18th of May
plow under the rye, apply 10 bushels
Of lime and 10 bushels of ashes, or its
equivalent of some potash manure,
and SOW to ? bushels per acre of In
dian peas, narrowing them in. When
the peas are well in leaf, dress them
with l bushel per acre of a mixture of

when they come into bloom plow them
under and SOW wheat, applying 100 to
200 pounds per acre of super-phos-
phate of lime.
Sd year.-In February or March
SOW clover seed l gallon per acre, and
when sufficiently grown dress it with
one bushel per acre of the mixture OF
plaster and salt, and when the wheat
is taken off, scrupulously protect the
field from hoof or tooth.

dress the clover with the plaster and

IDENTIFY.
The distinctive feature of poor land,
whether 80 naturally or become so
from improvident tillage, is lack of
soil, and this it must accumulate or
continue unfertile. Soils mainly con-
sist of vegetable mould, sand, clay ;
the mould being more or less rich ac-
cording to the kind of vegetation
whose decay forms it. The sand and
clay more or less abounding in inor-
ganic plant food according to the
character of the rocks whence, by dis
integration, they have come. This
condition, necessary to make poor land
fertile, is believed to be provided for
in the foregoing plan for its renova-
ton, which if adopted and fairly pur-
sued, must, it is thought. result in sat
isflctory improvement.
Bear in mind there can be no per-
manent improvement of lands without
giving it mould, and there is no rea-
dier or cheaper way of doing it than
by growing and turning under peas,
aided by dressing, if needed, i'll organ
ic mannres.
Employment for Farmers in Cold Wea-
ther.
Successful tillers of the soil always
plan their farming operations months,
and sometimes years in advance. The
farmer who has adopted "a paying pro-
gressive system of management will
have his land so divided into fields or
plots, that he can tell in a moment
what sort of crops will be cultivated
on every plot for several years to come.
During the winter months, such far
