AGRICULTURE.

Corn IN HILL OR DRILLs.-Permit me
writes a farmer say few words as to
these TWO modes of planting corn. As
the result Of twenty years of experience
and observation. L am decidedly in favor
Of hill planting. Both methods are
practiced here TO some extent, but
planting in drills is not done SO much
now as tour CT five years ago. In this
section the yield of measured bushels
of ears per acre will be about the same
by either method, but the ears that are
grown by planting in hills are longer,
the grain better developed, and conse-
queDtly heavier, giving about ten per
cent, more shelled corn by weight than
that grown by the other method. On
the other hand, more stalks will be
grown by planting IN drills; but in our
cornfelds the grain is the main object,
and we think it is better, if we are likely
to need more fodder than we get with
our crop, to devote portion OF land
exclusively to the raising of fodder corn.
There is one other point to be consid-
ered-the labor question. Very little
hand labor is required in corn after 1t is
planted, If we have good horse imple-
ments, and good wOrkmen to handle
them, if rowed both ways, while in the
other case much hoeing is needed if the
fields are kept clean. Good culture is
necessary if you want good crop OF
corn, and ID have the land in good con-
dition for barley the following year. In
western central Missouri, where So
journed for three seasons, fhe verdict
of the best farmers was to the effect that
planting in rows both ways produced
about ten per cent, more corn, with
wo-thirds to three-fourths of the labor
required in drill planting.

UNLESS you feed some grain you will
find it very difficult to keep the supply
of milk and the thrift Of your COWS dur
ing the winter season. Producing milk
for the market is considered to be an
improving one to the farms. Farms in
Duchess County within my knowledge
were largely grain farms until within
forty years, and they had become very
much reduced IN their productiveness.
Some of the finest lands in the State OF
New York, and they are as good as any
in the United States, has become very
much reduced by the system of cultiva-
ting grain and selling it. They intro
duced the system of selling milk. send
ing it to New York, and instead of beng
sellers of grain they became buyers OF
grain, and the productive capacity of
those farms, farm after farm, is double
to day what it was thirty or forty years
ago: they are restored to the fertility
which they formerly possessed.

Garret-A Case for the Humane Society.
PHILADELPHIA, PA, August 19.
The Times prints the story of the latest
insanity horror which the rural districts
Oi Pennsylvania has yielded up. The
story comes from the aristocra.ic suburb
.f Chestnut Hill. The victim is George
S,reeper, who has teen crazy for fifteen
years, and who was confined three years
III the house of his father, Charles
Streeper, man worth $4,000, living
onc.quarter of mile out of Chestnut
It'll on the Flourtown road. In the year
1869 George Streeper, then a boy of
eighteen, went harmlessly crazy. The
lew people living about ''The Wheel
and who remember him at that time, say
that the cause of his insanity was love.
lie was infatuated with Mary Potts, of
Chestnut Hid. The father opposed his
suit, forbade the boys attentions to the
rirl, logged him about the country from
p ace TO place when he thought that his
ron sought a meeting with his sweet
heart, and cursed him whenever he
thought his mind or his footsteps were
lent in her direction. 1t was in
the harvest time of 1881 that the
son leaped at the old man after
lie had delivered an unusually heavily
charged vo ley of abuee in the corn-feld
behind the house in which he lived, one
Of the DOZEN houses which Charles
S'reeper owns. The father had the corn
cutter in his hand. "If he hadn't had it,"
raid an eye witness yesterday, "there
would have been another acquittal in a
murder case on the ground of Insanity" :"
AS it was the "boy," then grown through
years of mental darkness to a man Of
thirty, Snatched bund of corn stalks
and ,hrasned his father like a sheaf
of grain. 1t was the last free ex-
ercise of his mu. cles. Save for his
father, mother and little brother, the
barber who was brought in to shave him,
and Robert Gordon, host of "The Wheel
Pump" who was called in to coax him
down stairs to let the barber shave him,
no mortal eyes have since seen his face.
The buried man has two rooms one is a
girret with a tin roof. 1t has no stove
in winter and it gathers all the heat that
the cool villas OF Chestnut Hill escape in
The summer. The other apartment is u
little room over the kitchen. George
Streeper has gone entirely naked
in the little room above the kitchen dur
ing the broiiing heats of the Julys and
Augusts which he has spent there. His
vacations are passed in the garret. The
reason why he has the garret for a
change is that on account of his not be-
ing allowed out of doors the room over
the. kitchen gets into such condition
after few days that he has to move out
of it until it is cleaned. Then he is put
in the room over the kitchen until the
garret Is cleaned. So it has gone on
Tor three years. When the man hears his
1ather's harsh voice he shrieks and beats
himself against the wall. AT night his
cries arouse the neighboring households
The eighbors did not interfere because
his mother was known to give him good
care. But she has gone away, afraid of
her life.

A Singular Industry.

Singular to say that whilst st. Louis
has not a single gold or silver beating
industry and Chicago but three, Gin
cinnati has four. An hour in one of
the rooms of the establishments re-
vealed a fund of curious information.
The method of the Cincinnati gold
beater is unique one. A sign over the
door declares that ''old gold bought -
This ''old gold'' usually consists of
pieces of jewelry, such as brooches, old
watch cases, signets, rings, bracelets,
obsolete coins, and so on. Upon the
purchase of the stuff, it is first melted
into bar, then it goes through pro-
cess of ocigenation, which usually takes
from six to ten hours, in order to free
it from copper and silver.
''How fine do you have to make the
gold before it is fit for leaf?' was
asked of one of the Oldest gold-beaters
in the city.
"We have to make it twenty-four
carat before we can do anything with
it. 1t can not be used otherw. Sc, as it
would be too hard to work. We buy
the most of our old gold from the
pawnbIokers. The fine gold we buy
from the East, Newark or New York"
"Any new process of smelting?''
"No, the gold is put in sand crucibles
of various dimensions and melted. The
crucibies come from the old country
and it usually takes from ten to fifteen
minutes to melt. when it is fit for the
acid. We use about one part nitric
and two parts muriatic. After it is re-
fined, it is put through rolling ma
chine till brought-out to the thickness
of writing paper. 1t is then cut into
strips one inch square and then put into
cutch, made out of French paper, in
order to beat it to the proper cOnsisten-
cy. 1t is then cut and put into a
shoder, and beat out into sizes four and
half inches square. 1t is next put in
to a mold five inches square, and beat
out the size of tlve inches, then finally
given to the girls to cut and put into
books"
1T is sometimes put to some very
novel uses?"
"Yes; pieces of the very gold which
probably once sparkled in the earrings
of George Washington's wife may be
seen glittering on the sign. board Of
some milkman's wagon or attached to
circus calliope car. 1t is curious
what a passion some people have for
using it not merely for the gliding of
statues, or the edging of mirrors, but it
even finds it way into the epitaph let
ters on the cold tombstones Of the Gem
eteries.'
.'How long does it usually last, say on
church steeples?"
'.Oh, from ten, to twelve years, 1t de-
pends of course on the exposure. The
tarnish is due to the danpness more
than anything else. The sunlight has
but little effect on it.
Actresses use it very plentifully, l
believer"
''Yes, it is used by actresses for MAX
ing gold hair. Forty cents worth will
cover three girls heads, and leave some
for waves. Some women 90 in for
golden curls. 1t is usually put on by
an artist. The hair first has to be oiled,
and then placed on in layers. OF course
it doesn't stay on any length OF time,
probably for only one or two acts, and
is then washed off with lukowarm
water'
"How much does it take to gilt cir
Gus carp"
"Oh, from ten to twenty dollars. 1t
depends upon how much you put on. =
