Now what are the farmers of Kansas especial

Your merchant and grocer will likely now be
willing to trust you till after harvest. If you
cant pay down don't buy, and when you can pay
down buy only what yon really need, and not be
compelled 70 sell at low price. It is said the
farmer is % independent. He might be, but it
admits Of bat little argument to prove he is not.
The merchant holds his goods when he don't get

We believe if many congregation made il q

who passes up the aisle of the church, it would
be better for their necks and their religion

Being worried, one Afternoon, by this turning
practice in his congregation, Mr.. Dean stopped

He then went on with his discourse until a
gentleman entered when he bawled out, like an
usher,

way"
He then went with his sermon, when pres
emily another man passed up the aisle, and he
gave his name, residence, and occupation; 50 he
continued for some time.
At length some one entered the door who was
unknown to Mr.. Dean, when he cried ont,

white hat; don't know him-look for yourself"

LEADING agriculturlist of Iowa has called
public attention to the enormous destruction of
property by rats in that State. 1t will surprise
most persons to learn that after careful iuvesti-
CATION he estimates the loss from this source at
not less than 81 ,0O0, 900 year. He recommends
the payment of a bounty, by Counties, per head
for every rat killed, and agricultural fairs offe-
premiums for their destruction. Bounties are
paid for gophers, wolves, &c, but all combined
do not destroy one-tenth as much as is destroyed
by rats.

To WASH WooL.-To wash the wool on the
Sleeps back is not profitable practice. The
wool is not half washed, and the difference in
price will not pay for the loss of weight, to say
nothing OF the trouble and risk for both men and
flock. If the sheep are kept reasonably clean,
and the wool free from rubbish, it will be found
better than having to wash them to get rid of
cnneces sary filth.
