A PORCINE POINTER.

Packing at tho Principal Cities Last Soa-
soma Falling Or as Compared With
the Previous Year, and Further De-
crease Expected this Season.
CINCINNATI, March 19.-The Price Current to-
morrow will publish returns of winter pork
packing at tho leading Western cities of Gin
cinnati, Chicago, st. Louis, Indianapolis, Mil
waukee and Louisville. The Price Current
assumes that the returns embrace over 100, 600
hogs belonging to tho October account. The
aggregate at these places is $500, ,412 against
4,564,673 last year. The average net
weight is 217 43 100 pounds, a decrease of TX
pounds net or 93s pounds gross compared with
last year. The average yield of lard per hog is
40 39-1O0 pounds against SO 91-1OO last year.
The amount of pork mado is 395, 900 barrels
against 523. 600 last year. The production of
pork was a53 900 barrels against 483 900 last year.
The returns thus far received from interior
places indicate about the same falling off in
weight at country points as at the large cities
the calculations being based on reports from
places representing Cloths of the interior
packing. The same paper contains report
from 225 places in regard to the
prospective supply and time Of marketing
spring and summer hogs and arrives at
the conclusion that in Ohio, Kentucky and In
diana, there will be a marked decrease; in IL
linois, little if any decrease; probably
as many in Missouri and moro in Kansas and
Nebraska. The most liberal runs lara expected
in May and June and the latter part Of the
season. The total packing last summer was
about $3.50, 900 hogs, and it is regarded as
likely that there will be decrease of 20 to IS
per cent. this season.

WILL wASHBU<N'S VAIL,

Testimonyfor Vashburn. ,rhich Confirms
tn" Fraudulent "Supplemental Re
turns
Yesterday morning John G.. Woolley COM
msnced to take evidence on behalf of
William, the usurper, in rebuttal of the testi-
mony given here some weeks since 80 dam
natory to Bills usurpsd rights, but the evil
dence rebutted against the scared "Congress-
man elect" Judge Flandrau represented
the usurper and P. o. Chistrom looked
after the interests Of the rightful heir.
The first witness called was Victor Hiorts-
berg, who testified that he was clerk in the
office of the secretary of state, and that the
secretary being sick he prepared the
blanks which were sent out
for election returns. He said he
took an old blank of the previous year,
which was the only ona he could find in the
Office. That blank did not have the words
"For member of Congress'' on it, and he
said that by mistake he dii not PIT them on
and hence the blanks went out without any
column for the Congressional v,te. He die
covered the error the Saturday previous to
the election, but it was too late to get no.
tees to the judges of election. He named
several unorganized counties to which he
own volition. The error was made by him
alone.
A. R. Camp was ons of the judges of
election of the Second precinct, Second
ward. He testified how the clerks
kept the record of votes, and the re-
suit was 265 votes for Washburn, 43 for
Donnely, and for George L. Becker.
There being place on the blank for men,
ber of Congress that was omitted by mis-
take. The ballots were mum bered. He dis
covered the mistake about the time the
county board met, and united with the other
judges in making the supplemental return.
Isaac McNair, another judge at the same
poll, testified that Mr.. Camps evidence was
correct. He read from a memorandum to
show how the vote stood, giving it the same
as Mr.. Camp. He insisted that the supple
mental return was correct.
T. F. Andrews, a third judge in the second
ward, refreshed hls memory and gave SINH
lar testim ny. Like the other witnesses, he
had a memorandum of the vote.
j. NJ. Williams, one of the clerks in the
same precinct, added his evidence siRilar to
the Judges
Charles Thielen was judge in the First
precinct of the First ward. The vote for
Congress was omitted in that precinct, and
he signed the supplemental return, which he
"guessed' was all right.
John Thielen, son of Charles Thielen, an
other judge of election of the same precinct
followed dutifuliy in the footsteps of his
father in his testimony.

SEED WHEAT.

What a Practical Man Has to Say o., the
H,sb1ect.
To the Editor of the Globe.
BELLE PLANE, Mimi, March II, 1872
Wheat culture and seed wheat is the great
question in this State and the Northwest. ]
have read with care all the articles of the
scientists, remarks and suggestions of the
Farmers club, and all others indirectly in
terested in wheat growing, that they may
make money out of it, and have compared
it all with the faithful experiments of my
own for the past twenty years, and if you
will give me space will present my conclu-
sions on the matter.
First-Experiments with wheat grown in
1873. have tried wheat, the weights as fol-
lows to the bushel, So lbs, Sc lbs, 81 lbs and
81 lbs, in good prepared soil, an equal num-
bsr of grains of each weight, and in equal
space, all in partitions of same box, the same
degree of heat and moisture. At two weeks
and few days, in breadth of leaf, height of
stalk and time of terminating and growing,
there is no discernable difference to the
naked eye. regret did not keep the ex-
perimental box: I only tried it for my own
personal benefit and guide in seeding for the
next crop. For twenty years I have sown
wheat grown on the same soil, but have
blast, blowing out all tight kernels and SOW
ing only the heaviest, and invariably with
good results and improvement of wheat.
This is the old Dunkard rule.
Second-I believe if we have dry, windy
spring, or long, wet, cold one, the No.
and will lack the vitality to stand the test
as wheat is ordinarily cultivated, and give q
vigorous growth. But if the spring should
be genial as last, either variety would be
good, but would only recommend the heavy
and solid wheat for safety.
Third experience e-Wet or dry, cold or
warm, when the ground becomes hard or
caked after sowing the wheat, and after it is
up, roll ittwith heavy roller, and again after
the first rolling of the ground becomes dry
or caked. no matter if the wheat is up six to
ten inches. Now roll until the wheat is up
three Or four inches. Numerous experiments
with the roller have proved better than har-
rowing, though have often received good
results from narrowing; but all things con-
sidered. the rolling ia best. The rolling pro-
cess pulverlzes the ground and gives the
wheat q chance to breathe, and thet is all the
wheat plants want-the breath of heaven
and room; for nothing is SO poisonous to q
wheat root as another wheat root. / have
never sown over five pecks to the acre, and
if that seed will not give a crop, then the
land should be used for something else and
renovated. --------z
IF farmers will SOW the heaviest wheat pre-
pared as aforesaid, and roll as aforesaid, the
results will be favorable. In this connection,
will say the ground must be we'll pulverized
and friable. One more remark and I am
! done. It is this: We're all the labor of the
State put Oh one-fourth of the area of
ground and the manures confined to the
same space, there would in the next decade
be added double the quantity of grain in
the State. three times the population and
quadruple the wealth.
