very thick, scarcely leaving o to
pass a hoe between the stalks. When
I was first considered big enough to
go to the field, we scraped each side
of the row from end to end. This
was hard work; we were not allowed
to "chop through fts" 1t yielded

and that too without fertilizer. W.

1850; after this date w had the

picked.
Wheat was probably given more
attention than any other crop. The
ground was fairly well prepared and
MANFRED; in fact, all the manure
was put on the wheat crop, except
the garden and the potato patch. At
this time all the wheat was sowed
by hand, was harvested by the scythe
and cradle; the reap-hook was now
laid away. A good hand vas ex-
pected to cut one hundred dozen in
a day. The most noted GRADER In
the county was Daniel Benfeld;
when a race was gotten up, it was
always understood that Benfeld was
not to interfere. When the wheat
was thoroughly dry, it was carefully
stored away in the barn, and could
be thrashed at leisure. This last op-
Grafton was a worrisome job. No
machine for threshing wheat had
then been invented; it had all to be
beaten out with a "fail," or tramped
out with horses, or the bundles of
wheat set up in a circle and a wagon
and horses driven upon it. The old
Dutch fan was used to blow the chat
away. Winnowing wheat was all the
way in the seventeenth century; as
| Don Quixote's Dulcinea was engaged
in cleaning wheat according to the
report of Sancho Panza. How long
this primitive way was kept without
change, we are not informed; but
for the last decade we certainly have

the sowing of the grain to the grind.

RRcoLLEcTIoNs OF THE LAST SIX
TY YEARS OF THE NINE
TENTH CENTURY.

No. 9 of a Series of Papers by DR.. J. B.
Alexander, of Mecklenburg Co., N. C.
Editor Of The Progressive Farmer:
There had been but little improve
ment in fire arms for the last one
hundred years till 1850; at least but
little change was made till then. I
never saw a percussion gun before
then, although some of them were
handsomely decorated with silver
stars. The War of the Revolution,
and War of 1812'14, and the
Mexican War in 1846'47, were all
fought with the old flint and steel
guns. In the War Between the
States in 1861, many of the soldiers
were armed with the old style guns
at the beginning; but after a few
battles we captured enough of the
very best to arm all the men we
could raise.
IMPROVEMENT IN FIREARMS.
Since that time wonderful i'm
provements have been made in all
kinds of fire arms. The repeating
rife, the sixteen shooter, the breech-
loader, the telescope sight, where the
hind sight can be raised for shooting
a long distance-all these improve
ments were made not earlier than
fifty years ago, and probably not till
1850. Percussion locks were not in
common use till the century vas
more than half over.
I recollect two finely decorated
double-barrel shot guns, made with
flint and steel locks, the middle of
the century. A good marksman prid-
ed himself on his rife. They always
used a rifle in hunting game; some
times when turkeys were baited, and
the hunter shot from a blind, a shot
gun was used.
In the old time shooting-matches
for beef, the rife was invariably
used. The distance was sixty yards,
with a lying down rest, or forty
yards off hand. The fints were
picked" and the gun put in perfect
order before the shooting would be-
gin. The hind sight would be shaded,
if in the sunshine; a piece of tin
three inches wide and six inches
long, cupped and placed along the
barrel over the hind sight, was the
most common way of shading the
sight. Sixty years ago, OF later, our
country furnished as fine shots as
could be found in the world. Some
brilliant examples of this kind were
frequently called out in the War
Between the States.
WHAT I RECoLLECT OF FARMING FIFTY
YEARS AGO.

planted fifty years ago; neither was
it fortified to any extent, nor-wa
it thinned as at present, but was left

him and on this account we cannot say
that the defendant had what everyone
accused of crime is entitled to, namely,
a fair trial. For this reason the ex-
