NOTES.

The wheat growing districts of California
are so distinct and the product Of each is SO
Influenced by local causes, as to form four
wheat growing divisions of the State: name
ly, Sacramento valley, San joaquin valley,
northern coast wheat counties and southern
coast counties.
The cause of rancidty in butter is due to
the fact that the buttermilk or the water
used in washing the butter, us is the practice
of some dairymen, is not all worked out
water in butter being leading cause of pu-
trefaction. 1t never results, as some seem to
suppose, because it is not sufficiently sailed.
Look at this fact American farmers grow
wheat, send it by rail 1900 miles to port of
shipment, then send it across the ocean 1000
miles at total cost for shipment from the
first starting place of twenty cents per bush
ell and sell it in the English markets at thir-
ty-fve cents per bushel less than it costs the
English farmers TO grow it
Carrots contain a very high proportion.
ten per cent, Of fat-forming materials and
a low per cent, about one-half of one per
cent, of hesh-fOrming substances. On this
account they are well adapted for fattening
purposes, and could be used with profit to
far greater extent than they are were it not
for the increased cost of cultivation over 9TH
er roots.
The new Washburn A Touring mill, now
building at Minneapolis MINI, will be the
biggest thing of the kind in the country, hav-
ing milling capacity of $500 or 5000 barrels
of -four daily and a storage for 100, 900 bush
els of wheat
Corn is cheaper in Iowa this fall than in
any other place on the globe, selling at Is
and 20 cents at the depots and 10 and l.
cents at places distant from the railroads. 1t
is reported to be very ripe, sound and sweet
and there will be $50 GOO, 600 to 200, OOO, 900
bushels, not one-sixth of which can be ship
ped out of the State.
The fact that Flemish farming derives such
abundant returns from a soil naturally poor
is due to the following reasons: The perfec-
ton of the work of cultivation, whether per-
formed by the plough or the spade the per-
lection of shape given to each field, whereby
cultivation and drainage are facilitated; the
most careful outstanding of all the manures :
the great variety of crops grown especially
of industrial plants which yield large returns
and admit of large expectation TO distant
countries; the abundance of food for cattle /:
the house feeding of the cattle, by which
COWS give both more milk and more manure,
and the system of minute wedding or the
most careful and thoroughly clean culture.
The capital in use in farming operations in
Flanders amounts to Sl20 per acre. 1t is
safe to say that the employment of Just the
above rules would insure high and paying
farming in New England AS well as Belgium

As the value of cabbages for feeding is be
coming better known, this crop is more
largely grown The greatest difficulty is in
preserving them. Decayed cabbages are GER
tainly the worst possible food for dairy COW
and the odor and taste of the milk caused by
them are far more disagreeable than when
turnips are fed. The successful keeping of
them is therefore very important A thous-
and head Of wel-grown eabbages will furnish
full ration once a day for ten COWS during
at least two months; by pitting them, cab
bages may be kept in good order for twice
that length of time. The usual method for
storing in cellars is not so good as that of
storing in pits, FITTING is done by blowing
several burrows so as to scoop out long hol-
low or trench, and heap the earth upon each
side of it, The cRbbages are then packed,
head downwards, in the trench, and first COW
cred with straw, then with earth sufficiently
thick 10 keep out the frost We have packed
them without straw and found them to keep
better than with straw, as the closer the pack
ing, so as to exclude the air more thoroughly,
the better is the condition of the eabbages
the earth too seems to have preserving ef-
feet the heads being packed downwards, no
earth penetrates between the leaves,-Ameri-

MhoIe wheat for Fowl,

There is more solid nutriment in whole
wheat, as a feed for poultry, than in any Of
the cereals, weight for weight. 1t is an e1-
cellent kind of grain for this use, though
somewhat more expensive then many other
sorts but too much of this hearty feed is
detrimental particularly when fed to Cochins,
Brahmas, etc. Fowls are very partial TO
wheat. 1t helps the laying capacity of hens,
bat il should not be used except with discre-
tion as 10 the quantity allowed them daily.

privileges before the law that were guaran-
exercised his rights rs citizen on the side
of that party which had saved the Nation
and secured to him his freedom and his
citizenship. This angered the ex-slave
power, which, after o few years of apparent
acceptance Of the situation, became restless
and turbulent, and through such agencies
as the Ku-Klux, the White-Liners, the rifle
clubs and night rangers they made war not
only upon the Constitutional rights Of the
coi0Tcd race, but inaugurated system and
methods of persecution, cstracism and muir
der against them which have blotted large
page of American history. The black man
has not only been hunted, outraged, killed,
cheated and robbed of his citizenship, but
ofhis property, and even OF his life, for being
a Republican, until, although numerically
the strongest in several of the Southern
States, they have been, through terrorism
and crime, reduced to state and relation
to government and society more abject
than slavery itself
These are the causes which have led to
the exodus, wherever door of escape has
been opened to the colored race in the South,
and in the face of all this the Courier Journal
now pleads in behalf of the Southern
people that they have dealt kindly with
these black people" II il is kindness
to people to tantalize them with free
dom and citizenship that involves no free
dom of action or voting except under the
behests of the Democratic party-if it is
kindness to a citizen to rob him of his badge
of citizenship and drive him from the bal
lot-box with the rifle and shotgun-if it is
q kindness to incarcerate him in prison after
q mock trial for trihing ollense where no
real guilt is involved and thus disfranchiso
him for life-if TO cheat him of his earnings
and despol him of his property is n kind
ness-if it is kindness to the colored
people to treat them in this wise, then
I" the Southern people have dealt kindly
with these colored people," but not with
out; for history is too distinct in its show
ing that all these wrongs, and more that are
moi here recited, have been nheaped upon "the
"cOlored people," to lead them to desire
other localities covered by the Constitution,
where its guarantees are respected, as the
places where they shall build their fu-
ture homes and assert their rights rs citi-
zens of the United States. The kindness
of the Southern people has killed thousands
of the colored race, until if is hard to en-
dure.
