A prominent Sussex County Repub-
lican, near Seaford, in reply to the re-
quest of the REPUBLICAN for an ex-
preston of choice for President and
Vice President, says:
81 think the majority of the Repub-
1icans in this vicinity are for James &.
Blaine, for President and Robert 7.
Lincoln for Vice President. Personally,
l am for any good Republican whom
the Convention may nominate. l have
my preferences, but if the men do not
favor are not nominated, l will stick to
the ticket. Have never yet scratched
q Republican ticket, and if cannot get
the man l want, do not sit down as a
great many did during the last cam
paign who call themselves Republicans
and do nothing. Ifthey had stood up
as Republicans should, we would not
have been under the necessity of hav-
ing an additional Democratic Judge.
The nomination of Judge Wales to the
United States Judgeship for this dis.
trict has thrown quite damper on all
good thinking Republicans here"

Potatoes.

Potatoes do not figure conspic-
qoqsly IN the crop statistics Of the
country, foF the reason that they
do not enter into our foreign com
merce. They are not exported,
but consumed at home; neverthe>
less. they constitute an important
part Of the subsistence OF the peo-
pie; next to bread, they are the
largest part Of our food, for rch
aud poor alike eat them, and a
partial failure of the crop which
sends up the prize is quite as
sharply felt as a partial failure OF
the grain crop. The yield of Irish
potatoes in 1879 was Ioe,4ys.ooo
bushels which would allow a
quota Of over three bushels to
every person in the country, or Of
10 bushels to every family of Ave
persons. In addition to this there
was s3.37s.ooo bushels Of sweet
potatoes raised, chiefly in the
southern states. Sweet potatoes
are as important an article of
food in the south as Irish potatoes
are in the north; each seems spe-
cially adapted TO the climate and
people; both are easily raised, and
each serves as a partial substitute
for bread when breadstYfs are
scarce and high. Large quaint
ties Of Irish potatoes are every
year shipped from the north to
the south. but sweet potatoes are
mostly consumed in the regions
where they are raised on the &C
count of the difficulty of protect
ing them from spelling by cold,
during transit.

Tomatoes.

Few appreciate the luxury of a
good supply OF tomatoes until they
have tried them The ground de-
voted to this succulent fruit is the
most profitable part of the garden
during the latter part Of the season.
More and better fruit can be OBJ
tanned by extra care of the plants.
If they are kept up from the
ground the fruit will ripen evener
and is not liable to rot. The
American Garden recommends
the following system to insure that
result:
Set in rows about three feet
apart. As soon as large enough
hill well. On each side of the
rows drive forked sticks leaving
about three feet above the ground
On the forks tie lorg poles firmly;
to these train the vines and tie
them with strings. Nip off the
ends of the shoots that grow too
far above them. BY this means
the fruit will be hne, free from
mud and the vines kept on bearing
until late IN the autumn and the
plants are more prolific. In case
of early frosss, double sheets Of
newspapers hung over the trellises
will protect the tomatoes until all
are gathered"

Hogs.

Our farmers should keep only a
few hogs and those of the best
breed, and take good care OF them
by keeping them healthy. Old
farmers, who have tried it, recon-
mend the free use of tar. They
say it Is best to feed in a long
trough where all Of the hogs can
get to the food, and keep plenty
of tar in the bottom of the trough,
and occasionally feed them corn
which IS coated with it. Those
who have tried the above always
have healthy hogs. Judge Wheel
er's father used tar for his hogs
for 50 or 60 years, and he never
lost hog by the cholera or any
other disease; Mr.. Dunk Dillon,
who used to live on the Attoyac.
in the upper portion ofthe county
never lost hog by the cholera or
other disease, while his neighbors
were loosing them by the score;
he fed tar to his hogs in their feed.
To show that it pays to keep only
good stock and to fed them well,
We will refer to Judge Wheeler's
fine hog. which is of the large
Guina stock. it weighs at present
very near 500 pounds, and will
weigh over that by Christmas. 1t
is undoubtedly the largest hog
ever raised in Shelby county-so
those who have seen it say.-La-'

THE WEEKLY BANNER,
The Carp aS a Food Fish.

/ There is much inquiry concern
ing the German carp introduced
into this county by the United
States Ash commission. People
want 10 know where it will live.
how fast it will grow, and general
ly what It is worth now that VIC
have it. Often as these questions
are answered they come up again,
and in truth, the different results
reported are confusing unless &C
compauied with an explanation
Carp are not first class table FISH.
but they are immensely superior
to no fish at al. when fish dinner
is wanted They are not as good
to eat as the bull head for instance,
but then it may be said that the
bull head is a very excellent FISH
when well understood. So the
carp can be made too;hsome
feature Of the dinner table, if the
mistress of the kitchen compre-
hends the mysteries Of the sauce
boat Without that skill, which
by the way is universally possess
ed by our adopted German fellow
citizens, and can be learned from
almost any of them, the carp is
rather tasteless. In very cold !
spring brooks carp will not grow
at all; they rather seem to shrink,
if we can imagine Ash shrinking. |
with the cold. But 10 warm wa.
ters. especially in the Southern
States. where there is no trouble
with frost, they attain al euor-
nous size quickly. There have
been instances oftheir growing TO
seven pounds weight IN two years.
which far surpasses anything
known Of any other species of
FISH. In the North, If the ponds
have hard bottoms and freeze their
entire depth, the carp will be kill
ed. But ifthe bottom is soft and
they will burrow INTO it
and protect themselves. They
are said to feed on vegetables,
either the natural growth IN the
water, or the refuse from the gar
den, but ] imagine they are great
" improved by an occasional
taste Of the numberless insects
that are found on all aquatic
plants. The same rule applies to
hem, that Is found to govern IN
all other departments Of nature; the {
best is always the hardest to get. {
Not only will carp never supply I
he place of trout, but they will
hardly live in the same water.
They need little care, and will ex- |
st on poorer food, are content in
ess fine water, and they are in the
end an interior fish. The common /;
proverh says that. whatever is
worth having is worth working for, :
and that. translated inlo fish litera- :
,ure, means that an ordinary va
uety is more easily maintained
than superior one. Still there is
always more need of the lower {
class. Few men eat trout, more {
eat shad. and infinitely more use
cod. while the ponds that are
adapted to trout. are not as one in '
i hundred to those fitted for carp,
Any old sluggish pond, above $
nud-hole. will answer for them. 1
In conclusion, it is almost self evil
dent than carp are no more game {
fish, that fattened hog is a game {
animal. Carp can generally be- {
procured through the state fish {
commissioners, and seYeTal breed t
.rs offer them for sale.-Robert S

burned are in no wise injured for

Black cows seldom prove to be

The Dalrymple farm produced
iI5o.ooo bushels OF wheat and 49,
900 bushels Of oats this year.
The Baldwin apple is favorite
in Ohio. 1t bears young and old
and seldom misses a season with
out crop.
farmers should not conine their
hogs to corn as the only fattening
iood, Other grains should be
given for variety's sake.
Sweet corn fed to swine will
afford return in pork fully equal
to its value in any other direction.
The hogs will eat stalks as we'll as
ears, and appears to relish 1t very
much.
An Ohio farmer has found that
a bushel oil timothy contains over
1000. 900 seeds, or about eight
seeds to every square inch If spread
uniformly over an acre of land.
c. NJ. Hovey strongly advocates
the transplanting of trees and
shrubs in autumn, saying that the
tn in reason is because the earth
viii be in the best possible condr-
ton to growth in the spring.
The Pittsburg Stockman says
the demand for 6rst-class seed
corn is always in excess of the
supply. and that glutted seed
corn market is something which
he "oldest inhabitant" never has
heard OF.
To produce the best quality OF
neat, feed regularly. Irregular
ieeding causes an accumulation Of

where it can be easily got at when
he periods Of starvation come.
Also it impairs the digestive pow

Farmer, says the want OF proper
ventilation, and the exclusion of ,
light ore the two evils accompany

stable must be ventilated, the light I,

lave the inmates thrive
An eastern farmer reminds far
