THE BUcKWHEAT CAKE.
Home to Be the Empire state
Figures Supporting Claim.

1t appears that New York will have to
change its name. 1t will always remain,
of course, the Empire state; but just as
we recently indicated, California has, as
the Golden state, produced more wealth
from its fruit than from its mines, SC
we, says the New York Mail and Ex-
press, Of necessity, must assume the
honor which the statistician confers
upon us, that'o the Buckwheat state
Out of the total buckwheat crop last year
Of 9,566,9 bushels, valued at IS, 341 Alb,
the farmers of our state produced $780,
1888 bushels, worth 81 1863, $50. Pennsyl-
vania aside, the rest of the "a states in
the union which grow the beautiful blos-
soming grain did not figure in the agri-
cultural contest which involves the grid
die cake.
We have no desire to take from Ohio
her title as the Buckeye state, from
Connecticut her nutmeg renown, from
Chicago or Illinois the sucker reputation
which attaches to their dignity; but we
appropriate with alacrity the buckwheat
glory. Virginia may have her hoe cake
and all the credit that shall come from
it, but about the buckwheat cake there
is nothing sectional; it springeth up as
radiant flower, and is to be likened only
in the common taste for 1t to the un-
pretentious pumpkin pie. The buck
wheat belt" cannot let out too many
holes for US. Indigestion is not to be
considered now. The moment of sausage
is near at hand, and as the proudest state
we are ready with the maple strip and
the cake.

snake culture In Australla.

Snakes, according to the prevailing
popular notion, should be killed at

they are now being Systematically
