The Largest YieIa Yes.

The largest yield Of wheat ret reported in
our county was realized by Mr.. j. b. Jarboe,
at NewtOwu Manor. who obtained a. bushels
irom one OF seed. Of course. ibis was large
" above The average Of Mr. JarbOe'scr crop. but
we learn that this was within q traction Of25
bushels to the bHshel Of seed. Mr. James T.
Abel and Payne, Of the same Manor,
made even larger average than this, but we
are at present without the exact figures. We
make these mentions to remind our friend
Gel Earle, who lately visited 81. Mary's, thai
IT We cannot hope for valuable emigration 40
our section until we reduce our taxes and
mead our roads better, under conditions ofin-
teiiigent farming, we can nearly equal the best
lands in Queen Anne's in wheat production.

We are now passing through that partien-
lar season known as the "DOg DAys,H which
PreceGe and follow the heliacAl raisiag OF the
star Sirius-in the Constellation Of the Great.
er Dog-in the morning, which in Plinys
time was on the 18th Of Jnly The extreme
heat OF this season Of the year, although TO
us palpably the effect Of the continued high
position Of the sun, was connected by the
ancients with the appearance Of this star in
the morning. They considered ike Dog Star
as raging, and gave the time the appellation
Of the Dog Days. The liability OF dogs TO
rabies in consequence Of the heat Of the ga
EOn was connected with the samestaT, though
there was nothing bua accident In the collu-
sion, and they butehered these animals without
mercy. Al Argus there was a festival sx-
PrtSsly instituted for the killing Of dogs
during she season. BY the procession Of the
eisuinoxes the helias al raising Of Sirius In
the morning has been changed to The latter
e. d Of August, aud n iew thousand years
will take place in the depths Of wisllsE.
