Eight Miles Square Of
Fire.

\ despatch to the St. Louis
be-Dem0crdt from Lincoln,
Ncb., says: "A courier from
the southwest portion Of Saline
county, just III, says a terrible
prairie fire took place there yes
terday, burning a section of
eight miles square nearly clean,
destroying out houses, stables,
a number Of dwelling houses,
agricultural implements, hay
and grain in stacks and corn in
fields. On Swan Creek, the
wife of Peter Oleson, a Swede,
was burned to death. She saw
the prairie fire approaching and
ran for broken ground, but
stopped to let the hogs out of
the pen. She appears to have
fallen exhausted just before
reaching the plowed ground.
Herhead touchedplowod ground
when found. The body was
burned to Il crisp. Another wo-
man and her two children, names
not given, were also reported
burned to death on Spring
Creek, five miles from the ether
locality, but particulars not
given. The wind was blowing
heavily from the south, and the
fire was stopped by Turkey
Creek, or it would have been
much more extensive, and prob
ably accompanied with greater
Oss Of life. .

DIR. Woodward, a Glasgow
physician of the last century.
had patient who always had
his fee in his hand to give the
doctor as soon as he felt his
pulse. One day the doctor ar
rived only to hear that a few
minutes before his patient had
died. "lmpossible," cried the
doctor; che cannot be dead yet.
Let me see him-some trance or
heavy sleep, perhaps" The
doctor accordingly went TO the
bedside, felt the pulse, and also
Il couple of guineas in the dead
mans hand, which he took quiz
city into his own as honestly
earned. "Ay, ay, poor fellow"
said the doctor; "he is dead.
There's 4 destiny in all things
an he went OH his way.

Farming in China.

Farming In China.
Every substance derived from
plants and animals is carefully
collected by the Chinese and
converted into manure. Oil
cakes, horn and bones, are high
ly valued, and SO is SCOT, and
more especially ash. To give
some notion Of the value set up
on animal offal, it will be snffi-
cIent TO mention that the bar
bcrs most carefully collect and
sell as articles OF trade, the
somewhat considerable amount
of hair of the boards OF the
hundreds of millions of custom
ers they daily shave. The Chi
nese know the action Of gyp-
sum and lime; and it often hap
pens that they renew the plas-
teIing of the kitchens for the
purpose of making use of the
old matter for manure.
No Chinese farmer ever sows
a seed of corn before it has been
soaked in liquid manure diluted
with water, and has Ecgun TO
gcrminatc; and experience has
taught him $50 he asserts), that
this operation not only tends TO
promote The growth and dcyel-
opmcnt of the plant, but also
TO protect the seed from insects
hidden in the ground.
During the summer months
all kinds Of vegetable refuse are
mixed with turf, straw, grass,
peat, weeds and earth, collected
into heaps, and when quite dry,
set on fire; after several days Of
slow combustion, the entire mass
is covered into kind Of black
earth. The compost is only en-
plovcd for the manuring Of
seeds. When seed time arrives,
one makes holes in the ground;
another follows with the seed I,
which he places in the holes;
and Il third adds this black
earth. The young seed planted
in this manner grows with such
extraordinary vigor that it is
thereby enabled 10 push lis
rootlets through the hard soil,
and to collect its material con-
stitucnts.
The Chinese farmer sows his
wheat, after the grains have
been soaked in liquid manure,
quite close in seed beds, and al
forwards transplants. Occa-
sionally, also, the soaked grains
are immediately sown IN the
field properly prepared for their
reception, at an interval Of four
inches from each other. The
time for transplanting is to-
wards the month Of December.
In March the seed sends up
from seven to nine stalks with
ears, but the straw is shorter
than with us. 1t has been said
that wheat yields l20 fold more
which amply repays the care
and labor bestowed upon it.
In Chusan, the entire rice dis
tricts of Chekiang and Keang-
500, two plants are exclusively
cultivated for the purpose Of
serving as green manure for
the rice fields; the one is spe-
cies Of coronilla, clover is the
other. Broad burrows, similar
to those intended for celery, are
made, and the seeds are planted
on the ridges in patches, at a
distance of five inches from each
other. In the course of a few
days termination begins, and
long before winter is gone the
entire field is covered with a
luxuriant vegetation. In April
the plants are plowed in, and
decomposition begins, attended
with most disagreeablc odor.
This method is adopted in all
places where rice is grown.
