will certainly give quantity of seed
that will increase very materially the
produce of an acre. Every farmer can
not go at work upon crossing wheat
artifcially with success. This requires
peculiar knowledge and skill, but not
one but can by using his best Judgment
in selecting increase the value in three
years Of his crop Of wheat by twenty-five
and perhaps fifty per cent. This is no
theoretical estimate; it has been tested
and found to work.
We wish also to suggest in this con.
nection that, in preparing for grain
show ut the State and county fairs, let
q good bundle of the grain be shown,
not single handful of dozen heads,
but a generous bunch, showing head
and stalk in connection with the cleaned
grain. This is a good work for the
boys; perhaps by SO doing the atten-
ton of others may be- drawn to this
matter Of selection, and thus good in
fluence 60 out from this simple work.
Fairs are for the education Of the peo-
pie in all matters that promise to in
crease production and benefit the farm.

Agriculture as a Profession,

Certainly no pursuit is more useful or
honorable in its following than agricul-
ture; no profession affords such scope
for study, research, investigation or the
application of scientific principles; no
calling is so comprehensive in its de-
mands upon all the faculties of mind
and body; no avocationis 50 healthful
or so certain Of remuneration; no en-
ployment is so independent, so en-
nobling; none in such close commune
on with the Author of the Universe /;
Lone so free from the harassing ankle
ties, the demoralizing speculations, the
alluring temptations or the possible dis
asters than surround other professions /;
none presents greater opportunities for
calm reflection, development of self-re-
lance and true manhood, or the cult
walton of kindly sentiments and neigh
borly sympathies. Why, then, if our
young men desire to be useful members
of society, men of position, influence
and mental and moral attainments,
should they ignore the profession of ag-
ricultureP What attractive features
does this noble art lack that other crafts
possess? The pursuit of agriculture
lacks that dazzling light of metropoli-
tan glare that attracts the moth-mil-
lers of inexperience and vacillating
purpose, but to SINCE their wings and
check their future flight; it lacks the
offering of those grand capital prizes in
the lottery Of life, which few ever win,
while the many are ruined in it's vortex !;
it holds out no sinecure positions of
reward without toll, of success without
effort, of preferment without merit; it
lacks that dash and din, that excite
ment and suspense, that strain of nerve
and brain, so marked on the race.course
of human hopes and fears, wherein the
speed and endurance of ambitious and
adventurous youth are matched against
the grim steeds of competition, power,
failure, bankruptcy, and despair.
Young man, consider well the choice of
occupation that is TO stamp you sue
cess or a failure; consider well the
possibility of your future, either as a
first-class agriculturist or third-rate
professional man! Remember that in
the cultivation of the soil there is full
scope for all your brain power and
education, all your reasonable plans and
development of mind and body

Cream of Different Cows.

1t is believed by some dairymen that
the cream from different cows is so un-
like in character that if churned to-
gether there will be danger of loss from
one portion coming sooner than the
other, and the washing away of the
slow cream in the buttermilk. There is
no doubt that cream from different
COWS, if churned separately, will show
difference in the time required for
churning as there is in the color, con-
sistency, or flavor with butter. But, in
all our long experience as a butter
maker, we have never found any evi.
dence going to show that properly
mixed cream is wasted in churning. If
we mix two parcels of cream of differ
ent temperatures, we expect the mixture
to show the average temperature OF the
two messes. If one gallon shows tenn
perature of 60 deg, and another gallon
at GA deg. is mixed with it, we expect
the two to show a temperature OF 62
deg. If one COW yields very yellow but
ter, and another that which is very white,
we should expect, if we churned the
cream from both together, to obtain a
shade in the butter that would be be-
tween the two extremes. And so, if the
cream from two cows, one giving soft
and the other hard butter, be churned
together, we should certainly expect to
harden the one and soften the other.
Very similar results may be expected
from mixing different samples of cream,
which, if churned separately, would be
changed to butter in varying periods OF
time; the one may retard or hasten the
other, but usually this is the only effect
which would be noticed. Even if there
be slight loss from churning old cows
and heifers' cream together-which we
doubt-we do not believe it would be
good economy to churn the two separ-
ately, nor advisable for farmers to be
to the trouble to keep only old or young
cows in the same herd.-N. E. Farmer.

FARM TOPICS.
Selection of Wheat for Seed.


There is reason why the production
of grain in the Western States has not
reached the perfection which has attend
ed the growing of stock. The farmers
have not considered the importance of
good parentage, nor have they given
any attention to the matter of selecting
commensurate with the Importance OF
our grain crops. This season there will
be an immense yield of wheat. The
price will be very low, and to the farmer
who gets but fifteen bushels per acre
there will be scarcely any profit, and
even his labor will be poorly paid for.
On the other hand the man who secures
thirty bushels per acre will have the
margin of whatever this extra fifteen
bushels will bring him, less the extra
cost of handling, which will be very
slight. His extra yield is worth more
to a farmer in wheat than in root or po-
tate crops because the expense attend
ing the gathering and marketing is a
very slight addition on account Of the
increased yield, and be the price ever so
low the extra yield is nearly clear gain.
This margin, to be sure, depends
largely upon character of soil and quail
ity of tillage, but very important ele-
ment is often lost sight of, and that is
the pedigree of the seed. The man who
would consider another demented to put
a valuable COW in a herd containing a
scrub bull, even if there be in the herd
never so good bulls of her own kind,
because Of the losing chance, accom-
plishes this same piece offolly each year
with his wheat crop. He takes the rye
and cookie out of his seed, to be sure,
but leaves the kernels produced from
roots bearing one stalk and short
head with these from roots Deaping
fifty stalks and long heads. 1t is a
weil-established fact that a single head
of wheat away from all others does not
fill well--in other words, crop is pro-
duced in a field of wheat largely by
Decentralization. The Importance,
then, of having seed from stalks well
fertilized-that is, fortified by the male
element of good heads from good roots
becomes an important matter. This
can not be consolidated in wheat as
perfectly as in cattle and horses, but il
can be so far managed as to create
tendency toward better seed with each
generation, and now is the time to be-
gin.
Select first from the largest stool, be-
cause the chances are that with good
many heads together the fertilization
was from the same plant, and as the
plant itself is good one, in choosing
from it the promise is for good re-
sultant. By going through wheat
field, in a little while one can secure
the cream of the field, which, If planted
by itself another year, and perhaps the
short heads and poor roots taken out,

A Crazy Man Murders his Wife.

A special from Hancock, Wis, 18th,
says: Particulars of a horrible wife
murder have just come to light perpe-
trated Sunday morning last in the town
of Deerfeld, Waushara County, about
eight miles northwest of Wautoma. The
crime was committed by farmer nam
ed Hezekiah Whitney, who has been for
some years religiously insane. He had
on several occasions said that God had
dug graves for two of his family and he
had to kill them. Sunday morning he
got up and went to the barn to do the
chores, his wife soon after following,
leaving two daughters to get the break
last. The meal being prepared the
father came in and after waiting some
time for the mother they ate breakfast.
A chapter in the Bible was read and a
prayer offered. Mrs. Whitney not yet
appearing, her youngest daughter, Alta,
went out and found her body hanging
to small tree, her knees upon the
ground and rope around her neck.
The neighbOrs were called in and an in
quest followed, which revealed the fact
that Whitney had murdered his wife by
breaking her neck across the manger in
The barn, and that he then tied her body
up to the tree to make it appear she had
hung herself. Marks of her teeth were
plainly seen on the boards of the man.

and ladylike, and woman much es-
leemed. The funeral was held on Mon
DAY, and Whitney is in the hands of the
Officers. Applications have been made
