We have received from Mr.. NJ. V. Richards,
Land and immigration Agent of the b. & o.
r. r., n circular addressed to the people of
the northern States. inviting them to avail
themselves of u very low rate of fare and take
an excursion to the Valley of Virginia. - for
the investment of capital. The train is to
leave Philadelphia on Tuesday, October Is. ut
Z 4. NJ. and whilst tickets are sold to Win
chester and other points up the Valley, yet
a lay over privilege is allowed. by which cx-
cursionists may stop ut Charlcstown and else
where. We therefore hope that our citizens
will exert themselves to obtain some benefit
from this excursion by inducing persons who
may come to be convinced of the many decided
advantages of a location in our midst.

The Wheat Crop.

The New York Herald has peen maxi
ing inquiries in the wheat producing sec
tions of the United States and estimates
from present prospects that the crop
Will fall short this year by about fifty to
eighty million bushels. Editoria!ly the
Herald says: Judging from our tele-
grams there can be little doubt that the
winter wheat crop will fall exceptionally
short. In the Central States the severe
winter oflsSS, following the long drought
OF last fall. very materially damaged the
grain, and the spring weather has not
bettered it much. In OHIO, Indiana,
Illinois and Michigan, four States which
ordinarily produce about forty per cent
OF our winter wheat-the estimated
shortage will not fall below fifty million
bushels. This deficiency must be serious
ly felt, whatever NAV be the yield of
other crops."

CT. Gardener gave his very sensible
method before the Iowa Horticultural
Society. He sets triile deeper than the
tree stood before, reducing the top
enough to prevent it swaying in the
wind. He digs the hole and half fills it
with water. He then throws in fine
earth and mikes it well, continuing to
throw in earth and mixing until mortar
is formed. Into this set the tree, and
throw in enough fine soil to coyer the
mortar. Beat the surface slightly with
the spade and let it stand half an hour; !;
then fill with earth. The tree will stand
firmly and require no stalking. Covering
with fine soil will prevent baking. Un-
lees the trees are sufficiently pruned to
render the head lighter, the operation
will fail. The roots must be kept moist
while they are out of tho ground. This
is very important, though no less so
than that they must not be exposed to
the sun or wind.-Rural New Yorker.

Binder Twine.

Few persons have an idea of the enor-
mons consumption of twine in this com
try. One of thegreatest demands for the
article comes from the farmers, who con-
sumo $4,000 tons annually upon the self
binding harvesters. Allowing five pounds
to the mile, this would be equal to q
string long enough 10 go more than six
times around the earth. 1t takes u
length of about three feet of twine to tie
a bundle OF straw. The farmer sits on
his machines, drives along through llls
grain field, and, without any assistance,
cuts, bundles and ties II acres of grain "a
day.
The twine used on the self-binder ia
generally made of sisal or MANILA hemp.
The sisal is the cheaper material, but it
is not so strong or durable as the MANILA.
In some twines mixture of the two ia
employed. For binder purposes, the
twine should have l6 turns to the foot
and at length of three feet would have
a breaking strength of not less than rs
pounds. The twine must be carefully
made, free from swells or knots, or it will
not run smoothly through the knottinp
device on the binder. The average con-
sumption of twine on a binder harvester
is two pounds per acre: Abont ! 200 feet
OF twlne per acre are required. 1t costs

Ingalls's Speech.

The better part of the Republican
press take a very proper view of Ingalls's
speech. The Boston Transcript says
Following the advice of General
Grant, the people will have peace, and
are not in mood to reward any parIi-
san strategy which has tendency to
rekindle old sectional animosities.
The Philadelphia Bulletin confesses
that it is unable "to see that the Repub,
lean party, whose interests alone Nj.
ingalls, should care for when he rises in
debate, has been benefited by his recent
speeches"
The Philadelphia Telegraph makes
this comment: Senator ingalls, broad
ly, clearly intimates that Gen. Mcclellan
was psrfidious, even as a soldier, and
doubly SO as politician. Gen. Hancock
was traitor only when, after the war
had ended, but while still wearing the
uniform of his country and bearing its
sword. he became politician. 1t is not
necessary TO defend either of these hon.
orable, patriotic soldiers. It would
shame their memories to make 1t seem
necessary. Such ghouish attacks upon
heroes in their graves discredit not the
subjects. but The authors Of them. 1t is
coming election time. The campaign is
near at land. Campaign thunder is
needed. II e loyal Northern heart is to
be fired anew with sparks from the Re
bellinn, and Senator ingalls, puts himself
forward To supply the thunder, to act as
the incendiary. 1t is wretched business
enough but ii is politics. Still, VIC do
not believe that the Republican party
needs such helpers as the Kansas sena-
tor nor that it has any respect for, or
sympathy with, his assaults upon the
dead. If it cannot elect it's candidates
without such help, it were better they
should not be elected"

is either increasing or decreasing. The
rule should be to never allow an animal
to fall of. A pound gained and then
lost is simply doubling the work and food
to reproduce it, which not only in
creases the cost but lessons the profit.
Oil, says the American Agriculturist, is
fatal to every insect it touches, and sui

the addition OF one ounce ofkerosene oil
and one dram OF creosote, will be found
an excellent remedy against all sorts of
insect vermin, while the liberal use of
kerosene oil on poultry roos.s will free
the fowls of their tormentors.
Fall pigs are claimed to entail less la
Dor than spring pigs, as they can be fed
and cared for in the winter. This is
true to certain extent but much depends
upon the age of the pig Oh the approach
of cold weather. If expected to pass
through the winter they should be from
early litters, or they will be stuntcd in
growth should the season be severe.

The New England Farmer says: "A
flock of Young mammoth bronze turkeys
often average twelve and half pounds
each, While forty pound toms are TO be
met with by all successful breeders, and
in 3-year-old form they sometimes
reach the the enormous weight of fifty
pounds each. A cross of pure.bred
tom with common hen turkeys will in
crease the young stock from three to six
pounds earh.''
