Tho present agricultural condition OF
Kansas and Nebraska, and more especially
Missouri, is in striking contrast with the
disastrous state Of things last year, occa-
stoned by the Grasshonper visitation. Tho
change is due, not merely TO the absence of
the grasshoopers during the past agricul.
tural year, but to the active sympalhies
awakened by their dcsolations the previous
year, and TO the ready and efficient aid ar.
forded, both privately and publicly to en-
able the people to avail themselves of the
recuperating capabilities of their soil and
climate. A Missouri correspondent writes
from one OF the most thoroughly devastat-
cd districts Of that State that the seeds with
which the suffering farmers were supplied
from the L. S. Agricultural Department,
and other sources, yielded b0untiful bar
vests, and changed the face Of things from
dependency TO abounding osDerity.
Many who left the country during the
threatened famine, have returned TO enjoy
the abundance which row prevails. The
yield Of corn, especially, has been unprec-
edented aud as the result Of the plentiful
crops generally, one correspondent says:
"Trade is unusually coed debts are rap
idly being paid; the people live far better,
dress finer, and have latter' animals and
larger cribs, and enjoy brighter prospects
than ever before"
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1876-02-04

In response TO the offer Of premium
Of $500 for the greatest yield of corn on ten
acres of land in Saline county, Missouri,
there were ievonleen eutries, and the av-
orago yield on the farms entered ranged
from 70 10 l2i bushels per acre.
1T was gallant Phil Sheridan who once
said he was willing to shake hands with
any man who was willing TO shake hands
with him, but he wouldn't shake hands
with any man against his will. That ex-
actly expresses the sentiments Of the North
respecting the rebel chiefs.
"A pumpkin is about tho last thing in
the world any body would expect TO ex-
plode, but that is just what one did at
Marshfeld, tue other day. Mrs. Elisha
Keene, proposing to make some pumpkin
pies, found that the pumpkin was frozen
and put it in the oven to thaw out; when
she went TO take it ont, it exploded with
the report OF a bOmhshell, part striking
her in the face with great force and burn
ing her severely.
A suit Of much interest TO tobacco
growers was decided in the superior court
at Hartford, Conn, recently. George A.
Allen and Ira $. Bralee; two Enfield far
mers, sold some 5000 pounds OF their 1874
crop to Baltimore house at p cents per
pound, but, prices subsequently falling,
the purchasers refused to keep the con-
tract, and the farmers had t. sell TO other
parties, at loss of 1898. They sued the
Baltimore firm for this sum, with $50
damages 10 cover the costs of the suit and
interest, and the jury gave them a verdict
for the whole amount.
Very few sales of the 1875 crop of to-
bacco have been made by the farmers in
the vicinity OF Hartford, Conn, who are
generally holding back with the expecta-
ton Of getting better prices. The crop is a
large one, and generally better in quality
than for some years past, though with
some exceptions, and is down ard stripped
for market. Buyers from New York and
elsewhere have been among the farmers
in the vicinity Of Hartford, recently, but
have refused TO buy at the prices demand
ed, believing that, in view of the largeness
Of the crop in Connecticut aud other states,
rIsers will he Obliged TO make considera-
BILE concession from the figures they now
demand if they will sell.

At the winter meeting of the Vermont
Dairymen, held at Rutland, recently, Hon.
ii. Lewis, President of the New York State
and valuable paper on Breeds Of Cattle. OF
the Jerseys-which he described as includ-
ing the Attorneys and Guernseys-he OBJ
served that for the food consumed they pro-
duce the most and best butter of any kinds
we have, and while for general purposes
they are not better than other breeds, for
butter they stand without rivals. The Dew
ons are very beautiful and easily kept |;
their butter qualities place them next to
the Jerseys, and as oxen they have great
vital energy and endurance. The Here
fords are a pale red. color, and transmit
tEeir traits with great accuracy; he would
not recommend them for the dairy, but for
working oxen they are stropg and possess
great endurance, and for beef rank next to
the Devons. The Ayrshire is a small COW,
able 10 get her living in difficult places, and
yielding good supply Of milk for the food
eaten but his experience with the breed
has not been satisfactory. The HOlderness
he knew little about, though they arc high
ly spoken Of. The Holsliens are quite COM
mon, and some of them are famous milk
ers, though they require large amount of
food, and as the cream globules rise slowly,
their milk will easily bear transportation.
The Short Horns are in disrepute as milk
ers, because in the hands of fancy breeders,
who keep for show and not for milk but
Mr.. Lewis declared that he knew of no
breed which, for the food consumed, will
produce as much milk, as much butler and
as much beef as the Short Horns. AS for
the native breeds they are legion, and have
some of the good qualities of all the breeds.
For the cost of keeping aud care they re-
ceive they are very profitable.
Among the papers read at this meeting Of
the Vermont dairymen, was ono by Mr..
Rutherford of New York, which denounc-
ed butter factories as a nuisance, on the
ground that they increase the cost Of max
ing butter and decrease the interest in its
proper manufacture, and statistics were
brought forward in support of these posi-
lions

How TO Use A DEAD HoRsE.-A dead
horse or other animal should be skinned,
and roughly cut up into as many small
pieces as possible. A plot of ground few
rods square should then DO ploughed deep
ly, and the carcass thrown upon the soil in
the centre OF the ploughed ground. Some
freshly dry-sacked lime should then be
scattered upon the heap, so as TO cover it
thinly but wholly. The loose earth is then
heaped over it, foot in depth, and the pile
covered with boards, so that dogs cannot
get at the heap and tear it up. If the least
smell is perceived, more earth should be
thrown upon the heap. In three months
the heap may be dug over or turned over
with the plough, and well mixed. The
bones that cannot be broken up should be
taken from the heap, and the iine matter
will be worth at least $50 per ton, to use in
the hill for corn. The larger bones may
be broken up and buried among tho roots
of grape vines or fruit trees.

Fences, Once More.

In regard to the fence question, concern
ing which we lately gave some facts which
were developed in the course of an inter-
osting discussion al the meeting of the Con-
necticut Board of Agriculture, we have
now some additional statements from lee
ture by Donald G. Mitchell, delivered on
the Same occasion and reported at longth in
the columns of the New England Farmer.
Mr.. Mitchell, who is perhaps better known
by his pseudonym. xix Marvel" and as
the author of those char ming books, Dream
Life, and My Farm at Edgewood, remark
ed at the outset that the hills and crooked
nized in all our plans for farm improve
ment, and that land is best fenced which
best suits the condition of the owner. He
spoke decidedly against the old custom of
fencing off many little patches about the
buildings, and would have as few fences as
possible, and those few substantially built.
Locust, red cedar and chestnut make good
fence posts, but tar and the usual prepara-
tions do not pay for the cost OF applying.
Board fences are better for gardens, but ev-
ergreen trees should be set in addition.
Stone wall arc good in some circumstances,
and If it is to be permanent structure the
foundations should be laid at least three
feet deep; bnt the best thing TO do with
most stone walls is 10 bury them where they
are. In Vermont alone the cost of con-
structing farm fences has been S4,7OO,OOO,
and the annual cost of keeping them in re-
pair is $3.50 in New York the fences
have cost s144, OOO, coo, and the annual out
lay for repairs is SIG, 900, 900; while the en-
tire cost of fences in the United States must
reach 81 200, 900, 900, necessitating an annual
expenditure Of sl9s, 900 for repairs.
Fences are seldom seen in many parts OF
Germany and other European countries,
and are beginning TO be dispensed with in
some of the Western States. Village resi-
dents should consider whether they cannot
get along without those picket fences be-
tween their lots, especially when there is
nothing to be fenced out except scandal, and
that is rather encouraged by fences.

would have ceased suddenly before the
term Of 20 years. Moreover, our increased
comforts aud our diminished dangers las
of war and pestilence aud violent death)
much more than compensate for tho wear
and tear Of our fast and excited lives. We
are protected against cod and damp and
the germs of disease in ways that our fore
fathers knew nothing Of. This, also tells
upon the appearance Of the race. Men and
women of 60 and 70 years of age are gener-
ally very much younger in appearance, and
much more robust, in fact, than they were
a century or Lalf century ago. The ait of
the dentist, which is entirely modern, has
probably more TO do with the preservation
OF youthful appearance than any other
cause. On the whole, although the fact
may conflict With the Darwiuian theory of
the survival of the fittest, we may be sure
that we are more likely 10 reach old age
