A LARGE CROP OF WHEAT.
Conclusive Proof of the Value of vii
mlngton's Celebrated Fertilizer.

Mr.. Henry CLAYTON, president of the Citl-
%ens' National Bank of Middletown, has
just finished thresling Il 25-acre field of
stalk ground wheat, which turned out $40
bushels, over 81 l., bushels to the acre. Mr..
Clayton used on this field $50 pounds to She
acre of Walton, Whann 4. Co. 5 Diamond
Soluble Bone, drilled with the seed, and
says the large yield is due to this fertilizer.
No other manure was used. This is Il very
large YIELD a remarkable yield for stalk
ground, ard speaks well for the fertilizer
indeed. Upon inquiry it is learned that
this fertilizer is sold for the low price of 80
per ton, and we are told that it produces
larger wheat crops than any fertilizer in
the market. This crop affords an excellent
opportunity to determine whether fertiiiz-
ers pay. Mr.. Clayton thinks the land
would not have produced, at the most, over
II bushels per acre without the fertilizer.
y calculation on this basis shows. there
fore, the additional gain il wheat per acre,
by the use of the fertilizer is, say:
DBL bushels, at say Sl.;}h. ..-........ 500 -
$50 TBS Diamond Soluble Bone at 80
per ton. Observation-Disclosures. All

Whatever may be said of other fertilizers,
to say that the fertilizer used in this case
pays enormously is a very safe assertion.

MORE ABOUT THE ASIA.

ToRoNTo, Sept. 23.-Henry Galloies.
another survivor of the wrecked steamer
Asia who reached here this morning says:
had my suspicious of the vessel and was
very cautions. She was laden so her fore
part was thirty feet out of the water, while
the stern sometimes plunged into the lake,
and she refused 10 obey the helm and roll
ed in the trough of the sea. Every strong
puff of wind that came wheeled the fore
part round until she actually moved as on
pivot. More than 100 people were on
board, half French, half English, all
screaming aa once as the waves broke
over the vessel. The officers could do
nothing, commands being unheeded in the
confusion. When it became evident that
the vessel would go down, Ganvers, with a
life preserver on, jumped into the lake,
followed by woman and child, who clung
to him, and shortly afterwards the vessel
disappeared. After being two honrs in
the water, he and the lady were taken on
board of smuggling vessel and carried to
COllingwood. The lady's name is unknown.
She appeared wealthy. She gave Gamers
$50 and also money to the smuggler.

During the rebuilding of an orthodox
church in Massachusetts, town the society
worshipped morning and evening in the
Unitarian church, the building being
occupied in the afternoon by the Unitarians.
A visiting clergymen at the evening service,
having called upon the Lord to bless the
evening and morning service, added: And
wilt thou bless as much of the afternoon
service as thou approvest.
A very pretty story is told of the mother
of Rev. DR.. Cuyler, of Brooklyn, who re-
Gently completed her eightieth birthday at
Saratoga, where she has been spending the
summer. She is too deaf to hear her son
preach, but every Sunday morning before
church he tells her what he is going to
preach about and gives her an outline of
his sermon, and then she prays for him in
her room during the hours of service. She
was left a widow fifty-five years ago, when
her son was only four years old.
