Case Dismissed.

At this mornings session of the Munich
pal Court the case OF Thomas Jacks IN,
agent, VS.. the Board of Health was taken
up. The charge was nuisance from an
over6owing privy well on the property, 224
King street, Atlantic Garden, owned by Mrs.
Ann Hertirg. The nuisance was unques-
toned, the only hitch being the question as
to the fact of jackson being agent 8.
F. Belts, agent of the Adams Express
Company, testified that the occupants of the
Atlantic Garden expressed the rent to Mrs.
Hertiug, who resides in Baltimore, every
month. William Legg, one of the proprie-
tors, stated that he always expressed the
rent to Mrs. Herring, who had strictly re-
quested that he should do SO, and further
stated that he did not regard jackson as an
agent in any sense of the word. The City
Solicitor expressed 1t as his opinion that the
Court could not hold jackson on the evi.
dence presented. Judge Cummins read
from the city charter bearing on the power
of the Board, and further showed that the
Board could abate the nuisapce, and If ne,
cess .ry, attach the rent to pay the bills. The
case against Jackson was consequently dik-
missed,

TAR AND FEATHERS.
A Party of Indignant Men Determined to
Decorate Preacher.

ERIE, Pa, August 81. - The feeling
against the Rev. Henry Meyers, of Union
City, whose treatment of his wife is believed
to have driven her insane, is very bitter
This morning the walls and fences of the
city were covered with posters calling upon
the people to assemble on the market-place
on Saturday evening for the purpose Of tar
ring and feathering Meyers, and calling for
contributions of tar and feathers.
To-day Meyers received an anonymous
letter advising him to leave the town before
Saturday If he would avert terrible fate.
The letter says that 81 righteously indig-
nant citizens have banded themselves to-
gether for the purpose of decorating him
with feathers and have sworn to accomplish
1t.
The preacher, instead of flying, has barri-
caded his house and is armed to the teeth
He says Union City is his home and he pro-
poses to stay there despite the threats made
against him. He has given warning that,
man of peace though he is, he will shoot any
one who attempts to molest him.

GRAPE GROWING IN THE UNITED STATES

The following nouice 81 the number OF
acres under cultivation to grapes, and the
quantity of wine manufactured theretrom,
will give our readers some idea of the rapid
growth which this industry has already
made. The Florida Dispatch says:
From statistics recently published by the
Department of Agriculture at Washington,
we learn that there are now 1S5, ,5S3 acres of
grapes grown in the United States. Wine
from the product ofthese vines, is made to
the amount of 24,45s, ,S57 gallons, having a
market value OF $1a.436, ,l74.s7. California,
OF course, leads, having one-sixth OF the
area, yielding nearly two-thirds OF the wine.
New York comes next, having 1858 acres,
though but little is made into wine; the
grapes find ready sale in the market; only
5s4,l4 gallons are made Rhode Island
only tifty-tive acres; while Illinois, from 81
$40 acres, makes over million gallons OF
wine. Missouri, Ohio, Georgia, and New
Mexico are leadiHg wine making sections.
Colorado cuts no figure at all in the report,
but the day is coming when grape culture
will be one of their most prominent indus
tries.

saw. two knives, one strong and heavy, the
other smaller, with a keen edge, hard
wood wedge, six inches long and half inch
thick, and small mallet are the imple-
ments used in grating. The wax may be
easily made by melting together beeswax,
six ounces, resin and tallow, four ounces
each, over moderate fire, stirring grada.
ally until all is melted. Rolls OF waxed
cloth may be formed of old cotton stuff
made thin by wear, and torn into strips two
inches wide. Wind the strips upon stick
and dip them into the melted wax; remove,
let drip, and put away from dust until
ready for use.
Grating should be done as soon as the
buds begin to swell. Having determined
upon the place tor the graft, saw off the
branch, smooth the cut surface and make a
cleft with the knife and mallet. Cut the cion
from the twig, leaving two or three buds
upon the piece, and sharpen the lower end
into a wedge. Open the cleft with the
knife and place the cion in carefully, so that
the lower bud comes at the top OF the cleft.
The inner bark or growing layer of the cion
and the stock should touch as much as pos
sible. If the grated branch is s:nall, sin
gle cion is enough; otherwise, put in one On
each side. Unroll enough waxrd cloth to
cover both stocks and cDns, and press iJ on
carefully and closely. The quick applica-
ton OF this protection is only matter of
practice. IL is we'll tor beginners to start
with worthless limbs befsre doing regular
grating in the orchard. If possible, find
some one in the neighbocheod familiar with
the process and learn the art from him.
The general principles may be obtained
FROM printed directions, but the success OF
the work will depend upon the knack, and
that is only acquired in the orchard.-Er-

EVERYBODY CAN GRAFT.

Grating is not monopoly OF gifted minds
or an art that can only be acquired by the
few. With the ordinary amount OF "gump-
tien'' to begin with, followed by careful
teaching tor only short time, almost any
one can graft successfully. Grating Is
simply Planting cutting of one variety in
the wood of another. instead of in the soil.
1t is essential that the growing layer OF the
cion and stock come in close contact, and be
so held until they grow together. Now is
the time to get the cions. They may be
bought at most nurseries, and great care
should be taken to get only the best varie-
ties. If cut at home be equally careful to
get them of them of the right kind, cutting
only twigs of last seasons growth. a fine

GAPEs in CHICKENS.

1t is much easles to avoid than to cure a

the patient is too far gone tor any assistance.
The outward symptoms are an extending

all day it will surely die. People at the
north have learned 10 dread this disease Tor
they have cOntended with it for years. 1t

an alarming rate. Poultry raisers have also
in measure learned how to manage it.
Early chicks are no. so much afflicted by it,

RUSSIAN FRUITS.

we dfe lnueOLeu 10 CnaFleS OlDD, Oh AD-
bottstord, Quebec, tor copy of his report
on Russian Fruits, the results Of observa-
tions in company with Professor Budd, OF
Iowa, through largr portion OF Russia tor
the express purpose of examining its fruits
in their home locations. with view to Sc
lectng those which promise success and
value in Canada, and in the more northern
and the northwestern regions OF the United
States, where many of our fine varieties will
not endure the winters. Pref. Budd has
given special attention to the cultivation OF
large number Of Russian apples imported
in years past, and planted in the grounds of
the State Agricultural College at Ames, la.
But, as his report states, they found great
confusion-"hopeless contusion," as they
state-in the nomenclature OF Russian fruits
ing and bearing, and to make selections OF
those which promised 10 be valuable, and
which could not be otherwise be obtained.
There is no question that the varieties OF the
apple which endure d cold in Russia some
times as low AS 40 or 80 degrees below zero
have here; but tie quality can be determin-
ed only by giving them trial. There are
some sorts named in the report tor their ex-
cellence, which may drop notch or two
lower on being tested with us, as it is diff
cult to pronounce distinctly Oh the precise
degree OF quality eatrely away from stan
dard sorts for comparison. We may cite by
way OF illustration of this poiat, the great
interest with which we once tasted the first
ripening bunch OF a native grape found on
the Rocky mountains by Longs expedition,
and which the weary and hungry travellers
thought the most delicious they had ever
seen, not even excepting the finest hot
house grapes. Instead of corrobOrating
their opinion, we found this grape sour, as
tringcnt, bitter, and unpalatable-being ex-
amined under very different circumstances.
In the genealogical skill OF Messrs. Glib and
Budd, however, we should have much con-
tidence, and do not suppose their opinions
to be greatly out OF the way.
The report notices and describes thirty
five varieties OF Russian apples which they
saw and examined, some of them of much
promise, and largely and widely cultivated
for market, OF several of which outline fig
ures are given; and fourteen additional sorts
found in Germany are noticed. OF pears.
eighteen varieties are noticed, and several OF
plums and cherries. Possibly among all
these fruits we may obtain something spec
tally valuable for our extreme northern linn.
its, although We hardly expect to meet with
anything which shall supersede the old and
well-known Russian varieties, such as the
Duchess of Oldenburgh, Tetoisky, and AL
exander. But additional varieties, equal tc
these ia value, would be OF great import
ance in those regions where The standard
sorts, which succeed only in the mllder por
tons of the Northern States, cannot be
grown, and Messrs. Glib and Budd have
doubtless conferred great benefit by theii
laborious explorations.

EARLY HATCHING.

I'll. S. Waldo, in the Farm, Herd and Home,
says: alh A. 2Eiaj
Pullets Matched in early spring are the
most valuable both to the tancier and the
average farmer, for which good care and
judicious feeding they will commence to lay
as seon as October or November, and per-
haps before. Now, in this way they get
the drop" on winter, by having commenced
to lay before winter has fairly set in, and
will! continue to lay throughout the winter,
when eggs are worth about three times as
much as they are at any other time of the
year, provided they have warm shelter
from winters cold. ra 5o
Then, too, when early setting time comes
again the next spring. they will have laid
several litters of eggs, and if mated to a
good healthy cock, the eggs will be as de-
sira.sle for breeding purposes as if they
came from adult hens, whereas pullets
hatChed late in the season are about as good
as worthless as breeders next spring, tor
they will be small when winter sets in, and
they will be situated by cold weather, and
when setting time comes in the spring they
will only have commenced laying, and the
eggs will be almost worthless for Matching
purposes, and if they hatch at all the chicks
are liable to be weakly, and not strong and
lively as they would be if coming from older
hens.
