CHIP DIRT AROUND YOUR TREES.

An excellent speaks of the great val.
nc of ''chip dlrt' for spreading around
young or newly set fruit trees, impart-
ing to them double vigor in growth. II
is simply the benefit derived from good
mulching. Dccayed chips, leaf mould
and dried muck are all quite similar in
their. nature, and rs they tend sire ngly
to hold the moisture in the soil below,
and can not form crust on the surface,
they are well fitted for the purpose. II
is probable that frequent stirring Of
the surface of the soil about the trees
would answer nearly the same purpose;
but as planters generally neglect this
stirring, or perform il is an inefii cent
manner, while the action of the decayed
vegetable matter cannot be hurt by
neglect, it has special advantage over
other modes officiating the young trees.

II appears from the published figures
that the total storage capacity in this
city 2, 702 QUO bushels, an Increase over
last years capacity Of 2, 00O. 600 bushels.
There are now in store there I4,O00, 900
bushels Of grain against Il, 0OO, 900 this
time last year. A grain gut, similar to
that oflast spring Is not improbable.

the United States represents an invest.
ment of u, 800, 600 900 and an annual pro-

OK. 900 pounds ofbutter, are made an
nually. OF the total amount Of butter

fHE YIELD OF DIFFERENT vARIrns OF
WHEAT.

Prof. Tracy, of the Missouri agricul
tural college, Columbia, has been en-
gagged for several years in testing the
comparative yields of different varities
Of wheat. He has carefully tested over
one hundred sorts, and not being salts
fed with the result Of these tests alone,
desired to learn what the Yields have
been in other porpotions Of the coun-
try. Parties engaged in wheat grow
ing will confer favor by sending him
postal card giving the names Of the
varieties grown in the neighborhood
and the yield Of each. These reports
will be Published in connection with
Prof. Tracy's report aud copy sent
20 all who render assistance in gathsr-
ing the Information desired.

WHAT COWS DAf.

1t apperrs from series of expert.
ments Of the agricultural academy OF
Eldcna. that Holland cows consume
about five pounds Of hay, or its cquiva-
lent. for every quart of milk, and Ayr
shircs mine pounds Of similar feed for
each quart Of milk. Another series Of
experiments, conducted by villeroy, re-
suited in showing that one hundrcd
pounds Of hay produced In Hollaadcrs
twenty-nirc quarts Of milk. in Devons,
ten quarts, aud in Hcrefords sixteen
quarts, On comparison Of these fg-
urcs with other data II appears that tie
average for all breeds is about six poQnds
Of hay or its equivalent, for onc quart
Of milk.

FRAUDULENT DIVORCES.

PTTTsBURG, Pa AuSu tH-It seems that fraudu
lent divorces have been got in the name Of coun
ty authorities. Two cases have just came to light
About the lst Of July Judge Stowe received let
ter from woman In Joliet, Ill, who was in great
distress. She said her husband had forsaken her
soma time ago, and had recently notified her that
he had procured divorce from her, and wRs
about 10 marry another woman. The method Of
procuring the divorce was similar to that descdb
cd last evening. 1t was alleged to have been is
sued out of the Court here, was drawn up In reg.
ular form aud sealed with counterfeit Of the
Court seal. 1t purported to be signed by Judge
Stowe The woman had besn left with her little
children to keep from AtRrvatiOn when their
heartess father deserted them, She told the story
OF her struggles with simple eloquence, and
pleaded piteOusly wit the Judge foT an Opportu
nifty to defend her own good name aud secure
fathers support for them. Judge Stowe examined
the records Of the Court, and wrote to the Rnx.
iOus woman that no dtY0 CO had been procured
here by b, husband. Ex ProthonOtary Kennedy
ALTO received Letter nom Toledo, Vnlo detailing
a somewhat BlmilaF case in WhicI his name had
been signed TO fraudulent divorce. Unfortu.
nately, these let ers have been destroyed or mis-
laid, and 1t 10 impossible to asce tain certainly
whether the frauds are all committed by Brown,
BiReloW & Co., Of New York, or not They may
have operated under different names. Enough
has come to light to show them to be the Of syn.
dicate Of swlndlers who operate In q number Of
States. Now that their sWindling here has been
