A good many curious calculations
have been made in connection with the
enormous crops of wheat produced by
the Dalrymple farm in Dakota. \ cor
respondent of the Chicago Inter Ocean
has been indulging in some new ones rel
alive to the last harvest. From the speed
ofthe harvester and the length of the cut
ting.bar he calculated that there would be
900 bundles to the acre, or seventy-nve
shocks of twelve bundles each. As there
were $4,000 acres in the field the shocks
numbered 1850, 900, and the bundles 49,
200, 900. Allowing thirty inches of wire
to the bundle, over 1910 miles of wire
were needed for binding the crop-al-
most enough TO reach through the earth

The secretary of the treasury recently
transmitted to the senate u report ON the
alleged occurrence Of trichine in Amer
lean hams and other meat in Germany
and elsewhere. The report was prepared
under the direction of the surgeon-gen-
eral OF the Marine hospital service, and
was called out by letters re-
ceived from United States con-
suls in foreign parts, one
of which, from the consul
ar agent at Mayence, states
that on investigating the reports of the
finding of trichine in American pork il
was found that the infected meat was
not American but German. The senate
report says the number of diseased
swine is overestimated, probably through
the influence of those most interested
the German pork dealers and producers.

Our loved President is dead. Our

asking continually for some one to

Our soil is prolific, but it will not
produce good crops unless it is thor
oughly cultivated. Land half worked
can never more than half pay. Thor
ough culture is the only true system
for any farmer, whether he cultivates
ten acres or hundred. It is the diff
ference between imperfect and thor

ry why some farmers make 80 little,
and some so much. Without the

expect a certain and sure crop. The
