Will it Pay to Cultivate Wheat {?

The last few years have satisfied farmers
that something must be done to save the
wheat crop. Every day we hear complaints
of the failure of wheat. Experiment has
proved the necessity of cultivation. The
attention of farmers is called to the new plan
adopted in Lancaster Co, Pa, of changing
the drills from eight sewing boots to four,
and adding an attachment which spreads
the grain four inches, thereby covering twice
as much ground as before, and at the same
time leaving space between the rows of
ten or eleven inches, by which wheat NAV
be cultivated as readily as corn. By this
plan of cultivation 81 bushels and Is pounds
to the acre, was raised last year, without
extra manure or fertilizers of any kind.
The simple process of sowing and cultiva-
tion as stated, produced the crop. The at
tachments are simple, and may be applied
to any drill at the expense of a few dollars.
Farmers cannot afford to be without it,
Many are adopting it.
All persons interested are referred to John
Eusser, of McAIisterville, who has recent
ly visited the farms in Lancaster county
upon which wheat was sown on this new
plan. Mr.. Musser will corroborate the
statements above made. Farmers visiting
MiliiiutOwn, McAlisterville, or Port Royal,
should see tho drills that are constantly
being changed from the old plan to the new,
and Tins they viii be convinced at once OF
the importance of adopting the new plan.

THERE is a controversy in Huntingdon as
to whether smallpox Is in that town or is
not Some say the disease there is chicken
pox, Others say that it is smallpox. The
following syn ptou;s Of smallpox, yarioloid,
and chicken pox were published in the Jour
nal of that place, and reproduced here:
sMALL-PoX.
Initial Symptoms. with tushes of
heat. Fever generally accompanied with
perspiration, headache, pain in the back and
limbs, vomiting and general debility. Mild
or severe in proportion to the gravity of the
disease.
Erupti5n-Appears on the Sd day after
the commencement of the disease. In mild
cases may be delayed to the 4th, 9th or even
the 9th day. In continent small-p fire.
quently appears on the 2nd day. Appears
first on face, then on the neck and wrists,
and arms, and lastly on body and lower ex-
tremities.
Appears first as Maculae or spots.
ID, Papulae or slight elevation.
Sd. Vesiculae or small blisters.
About the 5th day of the eruption the
vesicIes reach full size, some of them UNI
bilicated or depressed at summit and change
to
4th, Pustules. About the twelfth day of
the disease the pus begins to dry up, form
ing thick scabs which disappear gradually,
often leaving pits or pocks.
In diffiuent smallpox the vesicles are sep
arate having healthy skin between them |;
in the conf1uent, they run together and the
whole surface is frequently covered with
patches or groups OF these coalescent vesi-
cles.
The ripening of the vesicles in pustules
marks perhaps the most important period of
the disease. The failure to become pustu-
lsr in due time is significant of the failure
of the vital powers due either to the malig-
nancy of the attack or the arrangement of
important organs. Such cases are nearly
always fatal.
Duratioa.-Cases ending in recovery Is
to - days.
Resuh.-No case of small -pox is without
danger. Always doubtful in the conhuent
form.
vARIoLoID, OR SMALLPOX MODIFIED BY VAC
CINATIoS.
Initial Syrnptoms.- Similar to smallpox
;Sd.yarying in the same manner, although
generally milder.
Eruption-Is longer in making its appear
ance than in smallpox. Passes through
the same changes but it frequently abates
and begin TO disappear at the yesicular or
even the papular stage.
DurGfion-May last as long as small -pox
or only for few days.
Result Sometimes fatal, but the vast
majority (about SO per cent? get WELL
Varioloid is almost infinite in its varia-
tions. 1t may be so mild as to escape no.
tice and so severe as to prove fatal. The
number of vesicles may range from 5 to 6
to as many thousands.
cHicKEN-Pox.
Initial Symptoms.-Very slight and fire.
quently altogether wanting.
Eruption-Arpears in "a hours after COM
mencement of disease. Appears first on
the body and seems to spare the face. Is
almost invariably discrete, that is, does not
run together or coalesce. Is vesicular or
like small blisters from the very beginning.
Dries up in from 5 to Z days. Is never UNI
blicated
Dration.-Recoveryc complete in 8 days.
Resuh.-Chicken-pox is nersr fatal.

M. Lantz, principal of the schools in this
borough, treated the scholars of the first
school to sled-ride on Tuesday evening.
Two two-horse sleds were required to haul
ali the pupilsA
A-ELan Davis, citizen of Fermanagh town
ship, was crossing Lost Greek on sled, on
Tuesday. One of the horses lost his foot
ing, fell, and could not get up. He did not
regain his feet till the ice was so broken
that he got his feet on the bottom of the
creek. The water was about eighteen inches
deep.
A SPECTATOR present at the wedding in
Mexico on New Year evening, says cat
half an hour before the ceremony proper.
without notice of the service by bell, or
other publication, the church was densely
packed with citizens of Mexico and the sur
rounding neighborhood. At the close of
the singing of four verses of Psalm, at
O'Clock the bridalparty entered and the assem-
bly, rose to their feet and stood during the
marriage ceremony and prayer, which were
pronounced by Rev. J. A. McGill, of Nc
Coysville. At the close of these ceremonies
the bridal party, together with large con-
course of friends, prec eded by torch-lights
and brass band discoursing sweet music,
repaired to the house of Mr.. John Thomp
son of Mexico, where magnificent supper
was provided and generously served.
After supper, the members of the band,
who were guests on the occasion, much to
the qualification of all present. occasionally
entertained the company with pleasing and
stirring music.
At about ii O'Clock P. NJ. the large party,
numbering about ninety persons, retired to
their homes, highly gratified with the en-
tertainments of the occasion, praising the
host and hostess, and wishing Happy New
Year and a long and prosperous life to the
bride and groom"

The experiment of running a steam wagon
across the sandy plains of southern California
between Yuma and san Diego, carrying pas
sengers and the mails, is an interesting one
II it proves successful the plan can be adopt.
ed to advantage over other unpeopled regions
where the railway has not penetrated and the
sandy soil is almost impossible with the ordi,
n~ry wagon drawn 10y animals. The great
difficulty in the way of the use of steam in the
desert, however, would seem to be the lack of
water Perhaps it will be found that arteslan
wells can supply this need. The steam wa
gon, which is To start on the Yuma and San
Diego route October lSt, is expected TO make
an average speed of eight or ten miles an hour,
consuming about ten gallons of water per
hour. The distance to be traversed is 100
miles.-Rdilcdy Agc

Before Marriage.

Lovers quarrels arise from different causes
sometimes from mere intensity of affection
making undue eXactons, and ut others from
causes which, properly understood and appre.
claed would warn the parties of the impOssi-
bility of their everything happily together.
For instance, Il young man who is engaged
finds his aiiianced very jealous. Whenever they
meet other ladies in society, she treats him
with great GOODNESS. This chills his ardor and
makes him Disconnected so much that he is
in doubt about marrying her at all. He has,
in fact come to the conclusion that if he be
leved she would treat him in the same way
after marriage she does now he would not
marry her at all.
AS "A general proposition, it may be laid
down that persons will not change essentially
after mari iage, \ belief that they would has
been the cause of countless unhappy mar
rages. They will be just about the same after
as before and, if anything, a little more likely
to give way to natural proclivities or peculiar
tiles ct temper.
Ii You would not marry "A young woman,
provided YOU believed she would continue to
he rs she is now without and very marked
change in her disposition, then you do Il very
perious thing to marry her at all.
The same rule, on the other hand, applies to
the young men. Many and many a young
girl has made shipwreck of her happiness for
life by marrying a young man in confidence
that after marriage she would WELD SuCn an
influence over him rs to reform his wild hab
its. She finds her influence diminished rather
than increased, after they are married, and dis
appointments, disagreements and misery fol
low.
Marry no one with whom, without any
change of character, you are not satisfied,
