the property on which the well Is situated,
and received IN response the following
letter:
BURKEvILLE, July 25th.-S. p. Hurley
Esq.-Dear Sir: Yours of the 10Th inst to
hand, and contents noted. ! have to say
IN reply that the we'll you inquire about
belongs to me; that some ten years since
it commenced drawing water-that is, the
empty bucket would go down and a buck
ct of water come up and remain at the top
of the well without any known cause, II
has been kept up ever since at intervals
There Is no regularity about 1t; it will as
often draw at any hour of the night as at
other times. 1t has been known to draw
three or four times per day, There seems
to be no difference in 1t as regards weather
or the seasons of the year. 1t has never
been known to draw up water when there
was water in the top bucket. There is no
cause known for this strange occurrence.
As TO the truth of the above, il can be es-
tablished beyond DOUBT by the testimony
Of persons who have been about my house
outside OF my own family.
Yours truly, Nj. ID. HINES.

OAK PARK, H., July 81 Editor OF
The Tribune. Having fought the Colo
RADIO beetle from off my little potato patch,
| recently observed the vines dropping,
and, upon examination, found them hol-
low nearly the whole length of the stem.
Cutting off the stem close to the ground
and splitting it open, l would always find
the enemy, which was a worm about an
inch long, of a brownish-white color.
Some of the stems contained two worms.
How can they be routed without killing
the vine for, unlike the beetle, their work
is not discovered until the destruction is
accomplished. They not only attack po-
tato vines, but also tomato plants and
young corn. In the latter they go right
down through the heart OF the young stalk.
In one or two instances they have entered
the stalk OF the dahlias, and don't know
what they won't tackle. | send you a
sample Of the "varmint,' ana also a potato
vine that has been invaded by two OF the
worms, and if anybody knows how to get
rid of them without killing the plants |
should like to hear from him.

Orchard Grass,

Henry Stewart, of Bergen county, n. D.,
writes As follows OF orchard grass, in the
Country Gentleman:
Orchard grass makes an excellent hay
for horses, as well as for cows, and It's yield
Is easily twice rs much as that of timothy,
because 1t will yield two cuttings, and a
liberal amount OF pasture besides, late in
the fall, II is objected that Its habit of
stooling Is more pronounced than that of
Timothy, but that is owing to fault IN
growing It, 1t cannot be grown we'll in
drills, as IN the experiment made by DR..
Sturtevant at the n. Y. station, because
that directly encourages this habit, while
thick seeding entirely prevents it.
1t is permanent grass, and remains In
a productive condition, l know not how
long. have seen fields Of il twenty-five
years old, and in Kentucky there are much
older fields of it that are cut for seed every
year, and the bulk of the seed produced is
grown IN that state. have grown it for
hsy, pasture and sOlling-thc latter chiefly.
II is the first grass that can be moved In
the spring. In May had some just IN
head that was 40 inches high, and was
quite tender. Other portions of the grass
had been cut twice before that time. Last
year, which was very dry, this grass kept
on growing, and made four cuttings OF

part, this year, has been pastured, and in
two weeks makes growth high enough 10

make the growth thicker, and Ii red or

the effect of dril seeding. The ground
should be made very fine and smooth, and
the seed sown evenly, by crossing the
ground; and | would even take the trouble
to SOW it four ways, to get perfectly even

this. BY giving occasional top dressings,

THE EUROPEAN CROPS.

While La Sale county never has any
wheat to sell, her chief cereal being corn,
her farmers are nevertheless interested in
the prospective foreign demand for wheat
as the price Of that cereal always has an
important reflex influence on the price o!
corn. They will be interested, therefore
IN the results Ola close Geographic inquiry
on the part of the New York HeraN into
the condition of crops on the other side
with the following general outcome;
Our dispatches show that while the gen
eral condition of grain crops abroad Is
fair, there will yet be n market for our
grain. While Holland, Belgium and Cen.
trail Europe are favored the prospects IN
Southern Europe are only fair, and IN
France and Italy the yield Of wheat may
be below the average. Should the cholera
spread to Turkey and Southern Russia the
grain from that quarter will be practically
shut out from Europe, and the appearance
OF the disease in India would still further
restrict the sources from which Europe
supplies her wants On the other hand the
market for cereals is continually growing
The census of 1880 showed that Germany
must be in the future Classed among the
industrial States, as her agricultural pOpu-
latlon is decidedly IN the minority Within
