MINERAL POINT, WISCONSIN, WEDNESDAY, JULY g. 1878

DURING tho past week We have
been travelling around among the
farmers, and though they oil COM
plain of hard times, there is . better
feeling among them than there has
been for some months past. The
prospect for a good crop is excellent.
The hay crop is matured and clover
is being cut. The oats and barley
never looked better. There is less
barley raised than formerly. Winter
wheat begins to turn and looks re-
markably well. The rust has af-
fected it slightly. The bugs may do
it some damage, but not enough to
prevent good crop. Farmers are
raising more winter wheat than
common. The universal opinion
among farmers is that the best time
to SOW winter wheat is the last week
in August and the first week in Sep
tember. Spring wheat has suffered
from rust and bugs more than win.
ter wheat. The rust had not reach.
ed tho stalk when We examined it,
but we fear that the warm, cloudy
weather Of Sunday has extended tho
rust to the stalk. II 80, tho prospect
for spring wheat 10 not Astteripg. A
few years ago there was no rye
raised In the county, now in almost
every locality there is more or less
raised, particularly In the northern
part Of the county. We saw one
field that stood on an average no,
less than Ave and . half feet high
and will yield 40 baahsls to the acre
The corn crop In the middle Of June
looked bad. 1t was small and OF ,
poor color, but the. last week In Jun.
worked q great change in it. Th.
weather was warm, and the younf
stalk changed its color from pale
sickly yellow to . lively green
and. grew six to eight inches tThi
growth is extraordinary for th
time of year, and II July and Angus
are favorable there will be . .goot
crop of corn.

Field Trial Of HaxvArfs1s.
Copied from the Kcsrncv Gaxette

Copied from the Kcarncy Gazette.
About ono hundred farmers A.
sembled At Shelton last Saturday TO
witness . trial between tho Elward
Osborne and McC Cormick self. binder,
The grain selected was a field Of
green rye on the farm of Homer
Allen, about mile south of Shelton.
The grain was tall, heavy, very green
and tao ground was soft from the
heavy rains.
The first machine tested was tho
Edward, or St. Paul. This cut the
grain and elevated it, but would not
bind and was removed from the
field.
The Osborne came next, and start
ing 'otf, ran across an eighty acre
field doing its ,wsrk nicely, but iu
the second trip there came . crash
aud the binder was thoroughly de-
moralizsd, several Of the heavy cast
ings breaking short of, and compel
ling this machine also to withdraw.
The Osborne was drawn hy three
horses.
The Mccormick machine then came
In, first With thl 90 horses and after.
wards with two. About fve min.
utss we're taken up in adjusting tho
tension 30 - to bind ~ tightly -
possible without breaking the wire
(which MAS much smaller than sthat
used by the Other machines), slser
which the machine was run through
and through the fold without stop
or . break, Every bundle Wa
bound closer than could bs done BY
hand, no strain was nsticesble upon
any part Of the machiae. The bind
sr comprosses the bundle. draws tho
wire from both directions, twists
and cats It, and drops II to the
ground without scattering any grain
on roughly handling the bundle. II
drops no wire and will bind Just ~
tightly Is the strength OF tho wire
will bear. The machine was sold on
the ground, several different parties
claiming the privilege OF taking Il
as it'xss the only Mccormick fes
sale in Shelton.
The general agent for the Elwsrd
claims that the failure OF bis ma.
chine was caused by . defect In the
twister which csu be remedied. The
Osborne agent claims that the failure
Of bis machine was caused BY . asw
iu the castings. However these may
be, one thing was certain, tho AcCo, .
mick seli-binder was the only ma
chine that stood the test and remsin-
cd upon the field doirg good .sork
until the close Of tho contest. After
working to the satisfaction OF the
party in the heavy grain it went
back and cut tho stubbls loft by .
header and bound that into bundles
just as clean aud compact % ths
heavy grain.
1t seems as il, The superiority o(
tho Mccormick machine consisted
in its greater strength. simplicity ei
parts and superior quality Of mater.
ial, and workmanship employed IL
its construction, and that, on the.s
accounts, 1t is more reliable, more
satisfactory and more economical t.
the purchaser.

otto day OF our nation. 'Should
Providence favor the country with
appropriate weather, the welkin will
ring through our land in more jubil.
ant tones than is customary on like
occasions. In Mineral Point every
thing ie complete for q grand cele-
bration. The liberal sum of money
donated has been expended in
judicious manner, and when the one
hundred and second anniversary OF
our nations independence may be
counted as time of the past, we
feel confident that all will agree to
its being inferior to none that have
ever been celebrated in our ancient
little city.
On Saturday evening Charley Nc
Connel walked into the dining room
of the City Bakery and called for
supper. Mrs. Kissell, one of tho
proprietors, being busy, did not at
tend to his wants Immediately,
whereat he "got his dander up"
turned the table over, aud damned
the establishment - none but .
lawless person would do. Frank
Enzenroth. the other partner, learn
ing Of McConnel's man9uvring, had
him arrested, and he was fined $40
and costs. This he refused to pay,
and in consequences 'he was sent to
EDodgeville to sponge on the county
boarding house, where he has often
been before. Its time the county
was getting back from this idler
fair compensation for the amount
expended on his worthless person.
THE excursion Of the NJ. E. s. s.
was decided success. The excur-
sionists went as far % Warren to
give the little ones . ride, and re
turning, halted at Darlington for
refreshments. The picnic was held
in Gray's Grove, about one mile north
Of the city, where the good people Of
Darlington had placed benches, and
built q rostru,n for thensccommoda-
tion OF the speakers and band. When
the weary travellers had congregated
on the grounds, they fell to "picnic-
ing" with hearty good will. The
repast over, they we're addressed by
Rev, NJ. Benson and others OF this
city. and responded to by prominent
citizens Of Darlington, interspersed
with enliveniug music. by our band.
Those who did not feel inclined to
listen to the addresses strolled
through tho city, viewing places Of
interest, etc. The exuberant spirits
of the young folks would lead ono
to believe that they enjoyed them
selves "immense," while we have no
doubt the older ones passed their
time as pleasantly as could be ex-
pectod. From tho large attendance,
there being FIVE cosches, We would
suppose that financially it was also o
success.
