Pure seeds and pure breeds are IN
the line of improvement. Mules and
crosses are not. Never mix distinct
species or races or breeds with the
hope of improvement. Never mix the
inferior with the inferior in the at.
tempt to breed up. Take up no cross
in this field with the hope of exerting
the best point on either parent. Never
mix disslmilar varieties, and only mix
any varieties in the hope of uniting
the best points in both, as the fine

the other, or productiveuess with Wig.

The successful farmer does nothing
for II livelihood but farm. If he has
money, he invests it in way that will
improve his farm. He informs him.
self as to his business and goes to work
in an intelligent manner. Upon such
farms no weeds stand as high as a
mans head, nor are fences neglected,
buildings dilapidated, impliments left
exposed to the weather, and stock un-
sheltered and uncared for, but every.
thing denotes thrift and enterprise.

The best way to preserve manure is
TO haul it to tho field on which il IL
needed as fast as il accumulatcs. Have
a wagon or sled always ready on which
to throw the manure us il accumulates
and haul it out when there is a good
load and spread it at once This i
the latest approved plan.

POLITICAL SPECULATIONs.
An Extra Session of the Senate
Predicted.

WAsHINaToN, Sept. 20-Senators Lo
gan and Don Cameron are very positive
in the opinion that President Arthur will
convene the Senate in special session
very soon. They speak so positively
on this subject that it is supposed they
have had information to that effect from
President Arthur. At the late Senator
Burnside's funeral in Providence several
days ago, Messrs Logan and Don Cam
eron told other Senators present that II
the President died there would be an ex-
ira session oftthe Senate without delay.
Senators Pugh, Beck. Vest and Jones
and other Democratic Senators openly
say that the Democrats should first elect
q President OF the Senate, then organize
It, and then swear in the new Senators
They hold that the advantage which
gives the Democrats power to organize
the Senate comes to them legitimately,
Garland is quoted as opposing this plan,
Senator Pugh says be don't believe Gar.
land will offer any opposition to his plan
for org8nizing the Senate.

COLUMBUS, O., Sept. Is, 1881.
DEAR SIR: Will you be kind enough
to get.a workingman small space In
the Enquirer's columns, to say few
words to the workingmen of Ohio p
For the past two years the workingmen
have been talking and trying to get men
who represented their interests elected
to State and county Offices Now that
they have a chance to vote for man
of that kind to represent them, by vo-
ting for j. W. Book walter for Governor
of Ohio, we will see if they will now
improve their chances of electing by
voting Tor him. I know Mr.. Bookwal-
ter to be a good man to the working
men l was employed in the shops Of
Leffel 4 Co, Springfield, when Mr.
Bookwalter first became interested in
these works, and worked there a year
after his marriage to Mr.. LeffsPs daugh-
ter, and can say never worked for a
man that treated me better than he did
l was sick for three weeks, and my
wages were paid me every Saturday the
same as if / was al work, and when /
went to work again it was not deducted
out Of nv wages, and he treated every
sober and faithful mechanic in that way.
You don't find many Of that kind of
meE who employ as many men as he
does, and his example NAV serve for in
spiration and imitation. There are men
who have worked for him whose lives
have been made nobler by his instruc-
ton, by the wisdom of his counsel and
by the faithfulness OF bis friendship
In conclusion l wish to state that this
communication does not in anv way
emanate from Mr. B hlmselG He has
not the slightest intimation of it. !
have not seen him for several years, and
l never received but one letter from him
in my life, and that was in. reply to one
| wrote him in 1875. But In reading
the slurs that were cast upon HIM every
day by the press, I could not help com.
ing to bis rescue by telling what poor
mechanic knows about him.. receive
no pay for this, for there is no one
knows that l intended writing it. Now,
workingmen, do your duty on the 1lth
of October, and you will have the sat
isfaction of seeing one of your class
