TINE TO CUT WHEAT.

Harvest time is fast approaching. A few
weeks more and the reaper and the header
will be cutting down The vast wheat fields
that now gladden. the wheat farmers through
out the State. Under these circumstances it
is in order to bring forward for consideration
the subject set forth in the heading above.
This subject Is Of more importance 20 the
farmers Of this State than many Of them arc
aware Of IL it IS represented millions au-
nually OF loss or gain TO oar wheat farmers
alone This Is not the FIRST Time we have
called attention TO this subject, but its i'm
portance is sufficient apology for referring to
it often, even if we repeat what we have al
ready said on the subject. II has been con-
sidered one Of Californias chief advantages
as whest growing State, that her dry SUM
mer climate favored the plan Of allowing
wheat to remain standing till il bad become
80 ripe and dry that it could lie cGt with a
header and thrashed and sacked immedi-
ately without risk of damage from
heating and moldins. That consider
able is gained in the way of economy
in the handling of the grain, and in avoiding
the handling of the straw. is certain but it
Is now worth our while to inquire whether We
have not all the time been losing more in one
way than we have been gaining in another.
Taxing into consideration the loss in
weight alone, by allowing the wheat to be-
come over ripe before cutting, this loss is
considerable but this loss by no means rep
resents the full 10 s 90 the farmers, by allow
cutting it with the header. There is a Ger
taia stage Of ripeness or maturity when
wheat has,gained its greatest weight and hest
quality, and if cut at this stage, with the full
length Of straw, and allowed to remain in the
straw in position to harden up gradually,
this weight and quality become fixed so as
never to be lost But il the grain is cut be-
fore this proper condition is attained, kernels
shrink and wilt, aud the meat or Gour.making
substance becomes tough and leathery, and
there is heavy loss both in weight and -four.
making and food-producing qualities The
effect of cutting wheat too green is precisely
the same on the kernel as is the effect on
al apple pIucled from the tree when to
green. 1t is simply killed. The nutritive
juices, which would otherwise go through a
natural chemical or refining change. making
sugar and gluten, evaporate, leaving simply
ste shrunken organization os the kernel with
out the life-giving end sustaining properties
which are absolutely necessary to make coed

other hand, il grain be allowed to stand in
the field uncut until it Las passed the proper
stage Of ripeness, the effect is almost or quite

ExTERMINAToR- are a great NUS
ance in any house, and it is perfectly proper
to war against them in every conceivable
way. The Scientific american gives the
following method of Kidding house of
them. Il has one advantage, that, if not
successful, the benefit of cleanliness and
disinfection is at least secured "We
clean our premises of these detestable YER
min by making whitcwash yellow with
copperas, and covering the stones and
ratters in the cellar with it. In every
crevice in which a rat may tread, we put
crystals of the copperas, and scatter the
same in the corners of the floor. The re-
suit was perfect stampede of rats and
mice. Since that time not football of
either rats or mice has been heard about
the house. Every spring a coat of the yell
low wash is given the cellar-as purifier,
as rat Northumberland no typhoid,
dysentery or fever attacks the family.
Many persons deliberately attract all the
rats in the neighborhood by leaving fruits
and vegetables uncovered in the cellar, and
sometimes even the soap is left open for
their regalement. Cover up everything
eatable in the cellar and pantry, and you
will soon have them out. These precau.
tions, joined to the services of good cat,
will prove as good rat exterminator as the
chemist can provide. We never allow rats
to be poisoned in our dwellings they are
so liable to die between the walls and pro-
dnce much annoyance.

TIE WHEAT HARVEST OF 1880.


The present indications are that there will
be harvested in the United States this year
the largest wheat crop that has ever been
harvested in any past year. From all the
great wheat-growing States of the Mississippi
valley come reports of promising crops. For
Michigan it is claimed that the yield will be
20 per cent. greater than last year. Illinois
alse claims an increased yield, and Ohio re-
ports a much larger acreage in wheat and a
fine growth. Kentucky will have IS per
cent. more wheat than was harvested year
ago, and in Iowa, Wisconsin and Nebraska
the present appearances indicate very large
crop. Missouri and Kansas also expect larger
crops than they have produced for years.
while in this State, and indeed on this entire
coast, the prospects for large crops were never
better. In the whole section covering the
States named it is estimated that the amount
of wheat harvested this year will be 30 per
cent. greater than last year. This estimate
may be much too large, but one thing is GER
tain that the possibilities are on the side Of
its correctness.

Verging on naturalism, and at the head of
which stand Carolus Duran and Others.
The members OF the classical school for
years have been constantly reelected
judges, and the new school have had much
difficulty in gliding into the salon. As a
matter of course all young artists recon-
pensed were the pupils of the judges, and
many of them reached the title of ':hoYs
coRcoars with but little merit. This new
arrangement, by bringing the hors concours
together, has shown the glazing mistakes
and favoritisin of the judges and proved
the absurdity Of the title, since many profit
by the privilege for the purpose of sending
inferior works to the exposition, and of
turning the salon, into picture market.
Another thing, the artists who are hors
coRcours have always considered it their
special right to be placed in the best posi-
tions, to the detriment of young artists of
more merit according TO the new ar
rangement they are all together, and as
all cannot have the best place on
the wall, some have to be contented with
position near the ceiling. In conse-
quence, the horS coneOurs artists are furious.
Neither are the foreigners pleased, for many
have enjoyed for some time the superiority
over their compatriots by being hors con-
coars and here they are all hung together
without single mark of horS coRcoRrs or
exempt to distinguish them from their in
inferior companions. As / have already
| said, the present arrangement has incensed
the hors concourS artists then besides, after
the usual number of judges were elected,
Of ,x.htob Mr. xx,oc ,oAo p,act-
dent, the Sous Secretdire dur Bedur- arts
had certain number of artists obtaining
the next highest number of votes appointed
as annexed jury, and who are to enjoy the
same privileges as the others. This neces-
sarily diminishes the power and influence
OF the principal judges, and so indignant
did Mr.. Bougoureau become that he has
endeavored to make the administration
walk over thorns. In order to be revenged,
the jury passed most everything that was
presented, and the complimentary jury &C
quiesced so as to render themselves popular
and insure greater number of votes
for the ensuing year. The consequence is
that the number of pictures admitted this
year is so great that it is difficult to find
space for them all. AS a matter OF course
this domestic difficulty in the Beaux arts
had to break out with publicity, and be-
come the subject of newspaper articles and
private conversation. One Of the rules
exacts the entrance of all works by any
artist whatever before a certain time. but
it has ever been the custom to permit ar
fists who were hors coHcours, and were not
obliged to pass the judges, to bring in their
pictures some days later, and no one has
ever had anything to say against it. How
ever, on this occasion, Mr.. Bougoureau
awakened to
THE IMPORTANCE or THE RULES,
And exacted the refusal OF few pictures
which arrived late. Some words passed
between him and member of the admin
istration. when Mr. BOugoureau resigned
