More Hay and Grass.

DO farmers know the capacity of
the soil about GAINESVILLE for hay
We would like to state the statistics
of two small lots in town which
have yielded their first crop. Lot
No. l is small lot of quarter OF
an acre in orchard grass. 1t was
cut with a mower and poorly done,
because of the lodging and tangling
of the grass by storms. The yield
was two full loa,is on the capaciOus
hay frame of L. B. Hooper. Mr..
Hooper supposed there could not be
less than one and half tons after
seasoning. If this estimate be true,
the rate would be six tons TO the
acre.
Lot No. 2 is exactly one acre of
timothy, red top and clover. The
hay was 50 tangled by the storms
that it had to be cut with scythes,
and the yield was five extra large
frame loads on the same wagon,
and must have exceeded five tons
to the acre. The orchard grass lot
was entirely free from weeds and
the sod is six years old. The other
lot had a few weeds which were
carefully separated when the swath
was turned, and the sod is four
years old. If the season is flvora-
BILE the owner of these lots will get
half as much more good hay from
the second crop.

The Osborne BINDER.

a Irvine binder contest took place
on the farm of Mr.. James Clay,
near Lexington, KY, on the 10Th
inst, which resulted in a trium-
plant victory for the Osborne bind
er. Twelve other machines partic-
ipated in the contest, but were all
vanquished by the Osborne. The
contest was made in piece of bar
ley badly tangled, but the Osborne
delivered her bundles firmly bound,
and its superiority was so marked
that there was no difficulty in
awarding the prize. Mr.. John S.
Elder, of this city, is agent for the
Osburn harvesting machines and
sells a large number of them annu-
ally.

The Glorious Fourth.

The National holiday will be
observed in GAINESVILLE by a general
suspension of business. The major
ity of the merchants have agreed TO
close their stores, and the clerks and
business men will HE away to the
green woods and spend their patri-
otto Cxuberance at pic-nics, BRAN

Wheat harvest is about over.
Wheat on tobacco land is very good
though somewhat injured by rust,
that sOWn ON corn land don't
amount to much; upon the whole
it is an inferior crop and will not
make over three fifths of an average
yield. Oats look moderately we'll.
Corn has a good, healthy color and
fair stand, though very backward.
Some of our farmers failed to get
out their tobacco and substituted
the stock pea. Prof. Williams certi-
ties that there is an average crop
throughout Cheatham county.
We have a quiet, sober and peace
full people in this district, churches
and Sunday schools convenient.
Mr.. ID. S. Major deserves common
dation for his faithful work in the
Sunday school.
] am glad to announce that my
young friend, Mr.. Jimmie Gossett,
is rapidly improving. L hope he
will soon be able to lay aside his
crutches and give us some music on
the new piano.

Another Serial

The story now running in the
CHRONICLE will be completed in
four or five weeks. Before it is
ended we will begin the publication
of another serial, by well known
English authoress. The new story
is unique in character, decidedly
different from the common run OF
novels, but replete with interest
and exciting in detail. 1t is emil
nently superior TO the story we are
now publishing in literary merit
and more thrilling in the incidents
it relates. No one should fail to
read this story it is not specimen
of the light and transient literature
of the day, but is entitled to place
among British classics, and will be
read when many novels, now pop
ular, have been forgotten.
The first chapters will be pub
lIshed in the course OF two or three
weeks. Persons who don't get the
CHRONICLE and who wish to read
the story should subscribe at once
and begin with the first number.
We are willing to insure the public
that the story is all we represent it
to be. If there is anyone who don't
believe it is so good let bin read it
and be convinced.

What IT SI0nJfeS.

We commend the following from
the Union City Anchor to the care
full perusal of the editors of the Dem
ocrat. 1t completely answers one
of those sharp points" they made
last week.
Some newspapers are filled with
"IoWa Democrats" and how they
adopted the Watterson platform u
"a tariff for revenue only" and sc
on, and so on. The action of the
Iowa Democrats has about as little
bearing upon the action of the world
as the refusal of single farmer tC
sell his 100 bushels of corn would
have upon the corn market. Iowa
Democrats are about as few in num-
Der, compared to the entire party as
dimes in the missionary box at q
large church gathering. We mus,
admit that we have a tender feeling
for ali Democrats, whether in Iowa
or Louisiana, but we do not believe
in making such a hullabaloo over as
little matter as the acts and doing s
of a handful of Democrats.

We deem it our duty to close our

A FINE Stock Farm,

Col. A. G. Goodlett recently pur-
chased the fine farm of Mr.. Berry
Lyle's, near New Providence. The
farm adjoins other lands purchased
by Col. Goodlett in the same locali-
ty. His whole tract now amounts
to over 500 acres of very fine land.
He intends to convert it into a
stock farm and will turn his atten-
ton to raising all kinds of high-bred
cattle, sheep, hogs, &c. We proph-
esq that this venture will be q
source of both pleasure and profit to
its protector and set fine example
for other farmers in this section to
follow.

| EDITORS CHRONICLE: - Whea
harvest is over. The last dull, heavy
rattle o. the "binder" is heard as i
retires victor from the field
Thousands OF acres that were stand
ing in waving beauty two weeks
ago, have yielded to the sickle and
are now dotted over with the shocks
OF "golden sheayes," waiting fol
the threshing. Again the good
Father has sent the "seedtime and
the harvest" and again the hus.
bandman has been permitted to
form some estimate at least OF the
result of his labors, and with many
the result has been unsatisfactory
More than once the remark has
been made in my hearing: EARN
ers are going to be badly disappoint-
ed when they thresh their wheat"
"But shall not be disappointed in
mine," says one, "for l have exam
ined it carefully and there is not a
plump grain in it. 1t is every bit
shriyeled." From these and SINH
lar remarks we gather that the
wheat crop, though perhaps yield
ing large surplus above that need
ed for home consumption, will still
fall short of expectation, and be of
very inferior quality. l think the
market is not fairly open yet, but
buyers are offering 81 90 per bushel
for July delivery, and have heard
of some sales at that figure.
Harvest and the rains have kept
planters generally out of their culti-
waited crops for about two weeks,
and weeds and grass have made
alarming Roadway in that time.
Yet the case is by no means des-
perate one, and by vigilant and
prompt use of the pillow and hoe
both corn and tobacco can easily be
put in first rate trim. Both crops,
as far as my observation goes, have
a vigorous and healthy growth, and
although the inveterate croaker is
predicting IA ''dry july" l think
there is fiattering outlook for both,
if they receive the proper cultiva-
ton.
The Oat crop is beginning to ripen
and much of it will probably be
harvested next week if the weather
IS suitable. 1t is quite good so far
as l have seen, and seems to have
almost escaped the rust, which has
done so much damage to the wheat.
This is rather singular, too, as it is
usually the case that the later the
crop the more it suffers from that
enemy.
Local items of interest are scarce.
The new church building at Forest
Hill was completed one day last
week, and congregation will be
organized there on next Saturday.
The first public services will be held
there on on next Sunday, and one
among the preachers who are ex-
pected on that occasion is Prof. J.
E. Scobey, the President of Muir
freesboro Female Institute. He is
expected to preach either the morn
inOr Or tho axyopinu CoroOO hI1f I
have not learned which.
y a running trip through No. 3
to-day, showed things over there in
about the same condition as here.

it will be very short this year. \
fair estimate cannot be made until

we hope the yield will be better

have greatly damaged the crop,
