AMERICAN AGRICULTURE.

1t is well enough to glorify our manu.
features, but the solemn fact remains
that the United States is an agricultural
country. This is powerfully shown by
statistics presented to the National Ag-
ricultural Association at its convention
in New York. United States Commits
sioner Loring was quoted to exhibit the
magnitude of the farming interest. He
gives Statistician Worthington's esh-
mates of the acreage and valuation Of
the corn, wheat, rye, oats, barley, buck
wheat, hay, cotton and tobacco crops for
the year, as follows: Il. -. o...,
Number OF acres. 164, IL, $50
Value OF crops. ,13l ,O51 1859
He then exhibits the relative Importance
of agriculture as a contribution to our
export trade, as follows: ....T ~.
Total agricultural exports $7s7, S62 GIT
Total exports. ......... $40, 946 $50
The dairy exports of the year aggregated
$1s, s62, 407. It will thus be seen that
our vast trade with foreign nations Is
chiefly the work of the farmers. Take
from the manufactured exports refined
petroleum and spirits, and few other
items, and the purely manufactured
products exported are mere bagatelle
as compared with the agricultural Il
is the agricultural products that furnish
the. vast mass of foreign exchange to
pay for our enormous imports Of every
description.

THE SARGASSO SEA.
FARMER

This is the name given to portion of
the Atlantic ocean covered by the sea.
weed Sargassum. Its boundaries may
be indicated by tracing a triangle, Of
which the three corners are represented
by the Azores. the Canaries and Cape de
Verd Within those limits the sea is
clothed on its surface with garment of
vegetable material 50 thick as to retard
the progress of vessels sailing through
it. Steamers avoid it because Of the
fouling of their screws and paddles by
the weed; but sailing vessels bound to
the West Indies, South America, the
Cape Of Good Hope. etc., must pass
through it. When Columbus, on his
voyage, had got some distance to the
westward of the Canary islands he was
amazed to find his ships in what looked
like meadow. As far as he could see
the water was covered with greenish-
yellow plant, as water lilies cover q
pond. This was the first time such o
thing had been seen, and the sailors
were scared. Columbus could not ex-
plain the sight he saw, and might have
thought with his men that the weed was
the covering of some dangerous rocks
which lay short distance down, ready
to tear and rend them. The lead was
hove, but no bottom was found. The
ships kept on their course, and In few
days they got clear Of weed.

WHAT THE LADY ASKED THE BURG

LAR.
A lady in New Orleans found herself
and family of little ones compelled to
pass the night without the protection of
a man in the house, her husband being
in the North. Being good shot she
was not alarmed, however, but put her
revolver handy when she retired at
night. About midnight she heard anoise
as if some one was trying to get into the
house. She went softly on to the gal
lery. revolver in hand, and, sure enough
there was man down at the window,
prying open the shutter with a long
knife. After watching him for a mo-
ment, undecided what to do, knowing
that if she chose she could kill him, she
leaned over the railing and called out,
"Shall I shoot you, sir ?" The astound-
ing question caused the man to
stop work. He turned and looked up
at her but made no pretense to run.
She then fired at him and he re-
treated to the fence where he insolently
regarded her in the moonlight. The
brave little woman, not whit discour-
aged, then determined to show him that
she could scare him if she pleased, so,
taking good aim, she put q tiny bullet
through the rim of his hat. In less time
than ran ba told The would ha bnrr1op
was over the fence and out of sight.

can hear of no news in this quiet town
that will be of interest to your readers.
Stacking is mostly done. From my stand
point can see but a few fields where
the grain is still in the shock. Farmers
west Of here say they never saw so many
stacks on the prairie as there are this year
There are two reasons for this: first, we
have the largest crop this year that we
have had for number of years, and there
is larger portion of the grain stacked
than ever before, instead of threshing
from the shock. This is great improve
ment over the past. "A. B. Williams of
this town, has worked S5 acres of land this
season with one pair of oxen, and has cut
SO acres of grain this harvest with two
pair of oxen, using only one pair at time.
He used the Plano binder, and he thinks
it the best machine in use, as it does as
good work as any machine, and is lighter
draught.. 1t is said this is a great
country for vines, and I think it is. for I
have seen as healthy looking lot of vines,
pumpkin, squarh and melon, as ever saw
but there is no fruit thereon. This was
the complaint last year as well, what is
the cause of it? Is there something lack.
ing in the soil; is it because there are no
bees in this part of the country, to carry
the pollen from blossom to blossom. las
some have suggested) or is there some
other reason? Will some one inform us
on this subject. have always had good

GRACEvILLE, Sept. 10, 1882.

GRACEVILLE, Sept. IL, 1852.
Threshing in this vicinity is booming
large yields, which makes the farmers feel
jubilant.. Last Sunday Mr.. Dennis Nc
Carly Of Traverse county, was out hunting
in company with Thos. Paten and John
Martin, both neighbors, and while Mr..
McCarty was in the act of getting into the
wagon, he put the gun in first and the load
was discharged striking him on the left
side, causing death in a short time. He
leaves wife and three children to mourn
his sudden death. :. Last night was made
hideous by the noise and wild exclama-
tons of Jno. Noonan. He started this
morning for Dakota, and the deputy
sheriff with another man have started to
arrest him.. . There was an excursion
party started from here last Sunday and
pulled up at the metropolitan city of Maui
dada. 1t is situated on the east bank of
Traverse lake; has one store, two dwelling
houses, a post office, one hotel, and one
saloon. They expect to build two eleva.
tors and a school house. :. The new store
of Mr.. O'Harra contains very complete
line of general merchandise and groceries,
and is just what is needed in a country
town. We wish him success ARROW.

E. P. BARNUM, of Sank Centre, was
chosen at Ferus Falls, last week, to be the
standard bearer of the Democracy in the
fifth congressional district While the
democrats of Stevens county would have
preferred the nomination of Mr. r. G.
Moore, of this place, believing that he
whould have proven more popular can
didate, yet they recognize the worth and
ability of Mr.. Barnum, and seem to be
satisfied with the nomination.
THE nomination of Barnum has left
Nelson without hope. He wanted Hol-
land, of Brainard, nominated, hoping thus
to split Kindred's vote in Crow Wing
county, but Nelson proposes and Barnum
disposes. Bee.

THE notion that has apparently prevailed
here since the settlement of this county
that timothy and clover are not adapted
to this soil and climate, and that they
freeze out in winter, and not be grown
with profit, has been thoroughly exploded.
The few fields sowu to tame grass upon
several of the farms in this vicinity and
elsewhere in various parts OF the county
have shown that this is one of the most
certain and profitable crops that can be
grown upon the farm, whether it be used
as pasture or for hay. In fields sown to
timothy and clover last spring that have
come under our observation the grass is
now looking we'll, and there is every pros
pect for profitable crop next year. Tim
othy and clover will grow luXuriantly
sown separately or mixed together. Sown
by itself, timothy is valuable for hay, pas
ture, or for the seed, but is worth but little
as a fertilizer. Sown with clover, it is
worth still more for hay, makes far better
| pasture and as fertilizer for soils needing
rest, it is one of the best. Upon fields sown
with it one crop Of the mixed clover and
timothy can be cut for hay, and a second
crop of the clover may be cut in the fall
for hay or for the seed, or may be turned
under as manure, so that while the land
| devoted to this mixture of tame grasses, is
paying as large return as any other crop
raised on the farm, the soil is being fertil
lied, and that without any loss OF the use
Of the land.
Clover sown by itself is also profitable
crop. 1t pays we'll to raise it simply fol
the seed. 1t also makes good hay for cat
tie or sheep. AS pasture tor hogs there is
no other grass its equal. Hogs will grow
rapidly on clover pasture without Other
feed, during summer, and be in much
healthier condition for corn feeding in
autumn, than if fed on corn the entire year
Its greatest value, however, is as tertil
izer. Land that is to be summer fallowed
should be sown to clover the previous yeal
and then the crop to be plowed under will
be as valuable as any manure that can be
obtained. Clover can also be sown to al
vantage with wheat or other cereals, and
be turned under in the fall after the other
crop has been secured. In this way fields
may be constantly used, and be enriched
as rapidly as they are worn out.
Therefore no farmer in the county, who
realizes the importance of diversified farm
| ing, or the necessity of better cultivation
of the soil, no matter whether he wishes to
raise stock protitably or to restore partially
worn out land, should allow another season
to pass without sowing some part of his
farm to timothy or clover, or both.
