Winter Wheat.-This is the all
absorbing question with farmers We
have been watching carefully the testi-
mony on the subject, which has been
given literally in all our exchanges A
large number in Illinois recommend
sowing wheat on oats ground. Turn the
oats under, harrow down smooth, and
then Immediately drill the wheat deeply.
The oats will grow, be killed by the
hard frosts, fall down and form pro-
tective winter mulch. Professor Budd,
after several years experience, recon-
mends sowing a bushel of oats per acre
with the wheat. But it will not do to
expect perfect success in this or any
other way every year. All any one can
do is to thoroughly prepare his ground,
and then pursue that plan which sci
ence, reason and common sense dictate
is right and proper .--IoDa State Reg

To Drive Away Hen Lice.-A cor
respondent of q foreign exchange says
that the only reliable meas of Kidding
the hen-roost and pigeon-loft of vermin
is preparation of sulphur and carbon,
technically known as sulpburet- carbon.
In France it has been thoroughly tested,
and we are assured that it works like a
charm. 1t kills the insects which prey
upon pigeons and fowls, without injur-
ing the birds. A bottle containing the
solution will last several days, and the
cost of it is small. Put two ounces of
the sulphuret of carbon in bottle open
at the mouth, and hang it by string in
a henhouse. At the end of eight days
the bottle should be refilledy The rem
edy is said TO be infallible. If as good
as claimed to be, it should be known to
every farmers wife and poulty raiser in
the land. Ia

: Tendency of the High Breeding of
FOwls.-So things are coming to this
pass, says a writer in the London Gar.
deners'' Chronicle, that we are likely soon
to have in England beautiful birds,
:" too good to be eaten" kept like race
horses, not for their utility, but to gain
prizes while our markets will be sup
piled with birds of no breed at all For
if, as | expect, exhibitions tend to pro.
duce pampered, tender birds, whose
eggs and chickens cannot be depended
on in a bad winter like our last, those
who rear fowls for market will gradually
cease to buy their eggs, and will content
themselves with harder, commoner
birds; and the fine birds, of superior
size and excellence, which were to have
been introduced in every farm yard and
cottage garden when exhibitions had
drawn attention to them, will but find
their way to our tables.

CONGRESSMAN VOORHEES, FAnURE.-The finan-
ciai embarrassment and assignment of the Hon.
Charles II. Voorhis, of Hackensack. continues to
ag1tate eastern New Jersey. His difficulties
have arisen mainly through his extensive real
estate operations In New jersey. Notwithstand-
ing the temporary decline in values he hoped,
up to very recent period, to avail himself OF
the improving prospect OF business, and to
realize on his investments so as to pay dollar for
dollar. He is much blamed by some for recent
operations In borrowing money from those who
did not suspect the possibility of his failure.
Lately he has been hard pushed to pay interest
on large sums Of borrowed money which he OBJ
tanned for the purpose of keeping up some very
large zeal estate enterprises. He has also been
embarrassed by the large amount OF his invest
ments in the Hackensack Bank, amounting at
one time to over 900. He was obliged to
hypothecate his stock. The bank did not pay
any dividend last year. The Hon. A. A. Harden
beTgh has not yet indicated his answer to the
request that he shall be assignee. The assets Of
MIR. Voorhis embrace a very large amount of
property in Bergen and Hudson counties, most
of which Is heavily mortgaged. The precise
value of it can be determined only after a care
full examination Of the mortgages and a profess
sional estimate of present worth.-TN. Y. Sua, 4.

General Grant i'm Iowa.
HIS SPEECH TO THE SCHOOL CHILDREN IN BUR
IINGTON

Gen. Grant had magnificent reception at
Burlington, Iowa, yesterday. AT 1870 In the ar
ternoon 1t was estimated that Ii, 600 people had
been in the Barrett house at the reception. At
the conclusion OF the Misunderstanding the General,
with the mayor and Gov. Gear, visited the pub
lie school buildings. Six thousand scholars
welcomed them by singing 'Hail to the Chief"
In brief speech the General Said:-''I believe
that II there ever Is another war in this country
1t will be one OF ignorance versus intelligence,
and in that conflict the state of Iowa Will
achieve a great victory. Furthermore, think
that war will be one OF ignorance and SuperStf-
ton combined against education and tnteiif-
gence, and / am satisfied that the children here
will enroll in the army of Intelligence and wipe
OUT the colnlnn..i enemy-ignorance. l thank
you lor your kind attention" The children
lien sang america" and there was scramble
among them to shake the Generals hand.
He left the Adams residence, at Burlington, a
little before O'Clock, and proceeded TO his
special car. A band preceded his carriage and
an escort of the Grand Army men followed it.
AT the station there was a very large and en-
thuSiaSttc crowd in waiting. The General made
his adieu from the end of his car, and left amid
hearty cheers. At Galesburg there was large
crowd In waiting, and after repeated calls for a
speech Gen. Grant said: 81 am very glad to get
into Illinois again, and very, glad to see you
all, but have great sympathy with the news
paper men here behind me. am man of eco
omy, and as they have to go to the expense OF
telegTaphing every word l say, will make no
