II Ltndis.Wtn. Ulark, Kph. II. Hoever, J. M. Joluisteu. In the uIjmiiiue of the jircsiiJent, Vice I'reHlduut II.M. Kojjle was called te the chair. Crep Krpeitt, Casper Wilier, of Conestoga, reported that the uraln looked remarkably well ; the npprehcuiietiH entertained u month nt'.e that it had been injured by the heavy cnvciliiK of ice ami snetf, iimler which it liail 1 tin he letitf, had proved uieundleas. The clever ilulds, howevur, had been ureatly Injured by the mlcu. Ue had net uiadoaveiy careful o.t.innnaMeii of thu peach build, but did net think tnoie than eiiu in seven was injured, while of some hardy varieties net mere than oue in thirty was injured. The lewcht point ic.ichid by the liieicdiy tas tlitee degrees below ze te. Calvin Coepor, of ISitd m-IIaiul, said the wheat leeks a.1 well as he lias uver heen it leek under se heavy a body of ice mid biiew. The late titerm, he thought, had de n 0 it no Injury. The clevor has been a Reed deal damaged by tnice. The peach buds leek plump, ami although he had net examined them, he thought they would ceme out all right. Tlie mercury almost reached zero. Jeseph P. Vltiiier,ef Paradise, uioed with the ether fipcakeis as te the condition of the wheat and clevor. The farmers in his ueighbotheod nre ougaged shipping tobacco, very ltttlu et which has yet been sold ; a few sales wero made early in tlie season, but since thou very few buyers have been around, though tliere is a geed deal of geed tobacco in the uoighberhood Jehnsen Miller, of Warwick, agreed with what had been said, the wheat being especially line ami the tobacco fair ; he favored the use of Havana seed the coming season, and hoped henm oue who has had cxjioncnce iu cultivating it would appear belore the society and give ether growers the benefit of his experience. Win, II. liresiUH, of Dmniore, said that the report tuade by Mr. Ullier would answer very well for Orumore township ami the whele lower cud of tlie county. Jehn O. Mnville, et Salisbury, concurred lu what had been said regarding the crops, except as te tlie peaches : Iu his notch netch notch berhood he beheved all the buds had been killed by the cold weather. Ue has forty trees and had been tiuabie te Had u bud that was net killed. Uenry M. tingle, of Marietta, said all the buds en his peach trees wero weather killed. The mercury during the lirht cold spell fell from 0 te 8 dugrees below zero, which is suflloient te kill peauhes. Other fruitB are probably safe, and en the Yerk county side of the river the peaches also are ptebably sale. He never knew the Held tnice te be s bad as they have been the prcstnt winter ; the clever fields are badly cut up by them and many Osage hedges almost totally mined. One lonely hedge he had examined had almost every tree girldcd by the mice Tue tain fall during the last mouth was juat four inches. l'cmy en IteRil'.iliiKlnK. Jehn C. Linville, of Salisbitty read the fullewlug cscay : The time is near at hand when the supei visor will make his annual round and dump a carl lead et big btencu in n mud hule hcie and thurc, pi'.e tnoie dirt en the tops et breaks that aie already tee high uml peihaps run another lurrew in the bottom of side ditches thatatealiea 'y se deep that a leaded wagon cannot be drawn out of them if tlie drUcr is m unloitunate as te get tee near the sule of the lead. This bungs te iimid the fact that no part of tlie oivilu-iviee needs ro re ro feimiiig he badly as that lU.iting te our public reads The average buporvisei is genetally a man who hau failed te earn a living at an) thing elhO, and falls back en the townships for hi bread and butter through the wages of his office- It is needless te say that he knows about as much of eu gineetiug as a Putageuian knerts of diffeteutuil calculus. Under his supetvi supetvi sieu the leads always will be bad, ue ruatter what the read law is. Iu sonic townships iu this county the reads are sold, iu short tactiens, te the lowest bidder, te be kept iu tepair for three years. The system ts a geed one, theoietically, but a disgusting failure in practice The system is a laiiure, because lirst, uir.e tenths of the contractor are net heuebt enough te fullill their ojutiaets ; secondly, the uupciviser is tee stupid te see that the toad Is net irp.urcd aoemding te contract, and thiullj, because if he does uotbce it hellas net ueive enough te compel its fullillment lest he be 'V atdewn en" at the next olectieu. It is doubtful If, under thu t-ame supervision, thu old plau of employing thu hands by the township is any better. Very few men are compe tent te " boss" a gang of bauds ami have them de sufficient weik, and such uiuu get better positions than town supervisors. Assuming, however that we have au efficient supervisor, the Hint icqiiHite Is te have geed machinery. A toad ni.ichine, a htoue cruaher, it large strong plow and smaller tools should cuustitute the outfit. Ah most of the weik en the read isdoue iu tuoferopait of the season a portable thrasher engine can easily bj hired te ope- rate the stoue ureal; ur. Tlie law very properly Uses the mast, mum grude of a public lead at live decrees, or about nlne feet in the hundred, and it should be the aim of uupeiviseis ti reduce all grades nu much trtvelcd ieads te this standard. Many hill toads have a grade of twolve or thirteen or oveu in ie leet per hundred. A rock grade nu.jlii net, in ittiy case, te exceed eleven leet te the huudied. Whero rock crops out en a hill tho.e is only one rotnedy it must be maeidftinizeil. The average "turiiplke" Is made up of nil sizes tad especially big ones, dumped Inte the read and a few of the largest ones broken en top and thou coveted with dirt. Sueh a read is an in. suit te the common sense of the commu nity and a oenstiut temptatien te teamsters te use lauguage forbidden iu tlie Decalogue, The big stones are seen en top and nre a ODiircn of oeutlnual anneyaucj, MuAdam, the Invciter of the systeui, says the stones should be uiokeu te the . i.e et about oue Inoh cubes. They certnluly ought net te be evor two Inches in diameter, The breaker la required te lrduce tue stones, If the job la preperly dmie the read will last for gouerattoim with but uttie repairs, Ne bteaks are needed te turn the wnter off this read, It will Iiml the aides au easily as " rolling oil a leg." Most hills have entirely tee many breaks. When breaks nre mtde thy should be wide en top and the grade get e.ts.er near the mini. tnlt. and the water npace abeve ba bread mid net doep. The man who runs a break diagonally noress the read should be sent immediately te the lusatie asylum or the penitentiary. A geed read hat ue doep slde ditohes, but in rounded from slde te side, and Is read all evor. Teamsters may drlve fully out te the sides and draw thelr leads biiek te the oeutro of the read. With the improved read, scrapers new In use two men and a team of horses will de the work of twenty or thirty meu with shevels and de It infi nitely hotter. The hills en the main tlioieuglifaroa should be graded lirst nnd by intelligent managotneiit, all the reads could he made geed iu a few years, and the cost uced net be much greater than nt present. Franklin's motto, " what 1h worth doing, Is worth doing weli " Is as apidlcable te reads as te anything olse. The publle rmds are nu indez of the thrift and intolllgenoo of the community in which they are feuud, The tendency of the times is te light wagons and faster driving. We must have easier gradei and smoother reads, While speaking of publle reads, It may net be amiss te consider the matter In its iiMthiitle bearings. The nbomlnable habit of Heme farmers iu letting briars, carrot, deg fennel, sarap-drageu and ether vile weeds te grew along thelr roadsides calls loudly for reform. And thou seme men make the roadside near their buildings the depository of all their superannuated milk pins, buckets, steve pipes and dilapidated wagons, te say nothing of cast off articled of lemale apparel and dead eats and degx. It Is fondly hoped that the d.ly of botter reads is net far off. The worst bugbear in the way is the fearef htgher taxes. Oh! illaiue, give us that whisky tax te pay our oeunty oxpeutics, he that we may lay heavier local taxes, and have botter reads. Calvin Cooper, of Uird-in-Uand, said he was Herry that overy miporviser In the county was net present te hear the truths contained iu the essay. Dr. J. P. Wiokersham, being called en, said he would as leave talk about reads as anything else, as he has travelcd evor a great many both in this country and iu Kurope. Iu Kuglaud, Belgium, France, Switzerland and oveu in Italy the reads are much hotter than ours. Tliere they are tuade under the supervision of the government and, although he Is opposed te centralization, he should notweudor if we would have te adept seme systeui of government supervision for the coustiuo ceustiuo coustiue tiou and repair of our reads. Lecal public spirit, it appears, cannot be se cultivated au te give us geed reads or geed schools ; and as it was nocessary ler the state te take held et the cause of uduoatien, se It mav be necessary for it te take held of our reads also aud impreve thorn as it has improved the schools, lie has ceme te this conclusion after traveling tlieusauds of miles in Europe. He had ridden along reads which for htretclics of huudreds of successive miles wero almost as smooth as a fleer aud shaded by rows of evor arching trees. When oue tree dles auother is planted in its place. Thore are no breaks en any of the Eurepeau reads, net oveu en these which cress the Alps, whero the grades are elteu stcep W. II. liresius, of Diumere, said thore had been mero state legislation en the subject of reads thau en any ether subject aud perhaps that is oue reason our reads aie se bad. The laws are ee numerous aud contacting that nobody understands them. He admitted the supervisor sys tem te be abominnble. It makes the Btiporvisei net only the boss of his meu aud the boss of the reads, but the boss of the tax payers. Jeseph F. Wi truer, of Paradise, thought the only way te sccure geed reads was te loam peeple hew te make thetu. Many of our supervisor neither knew hew te make a geed read nor kuew what a geed read is when they soe it. Many taxpayers fear that lirst class reads nre tee oxpensivo, but the truth is they are cheaper than peer reads. H P.Eby, esq., city, said thore are many difficulties iu the way of getting- geed reads in our county. The land is very rolling ; many of the reads nre old ones laid out evor routes te accommodate past generations ; many of the cow reads also are laid out evor bad routes se as te de as little damage ns possible te the farms. The plan of pnrcelim! out the repair et the reads among these living along them is a bad one. He thought it would be an im provement te have a county supervisor of reads. After further lively disoussieu in whieh Messrs. Linville, Engle, Eby and ethers paitlolpated, the matter was dropped. Kisxy en Tobacco. 0. L. Iluusocker, of Mauheim township, read au essay en the history, cultivation, trade and manufacture, of tobacco, tiaeing its use from the oarllest ages te the present time ; detailing the laws governing its growth and mauufaoture in various coun tries, the immense rovenues derived from it, the efforts made for its suppression, aud the methods used for its cultivation in various countries, the fortuues beiug made iu our own county by tobacco growers and manufacturers. II. M. Engle of Marrietta said tobacco glowing is ue doubt profltable te the tobacco grower and manufacturer, but it is a oestly luxury and werse than usoless te the consumer. J. O. Linville of Salisbury agreed with Mr. Eugle that tobacco was useless te the consumer and believed that it was also pornielotiB almost as bad ns whisky. Mr. Ilunsocker explained that lu his essay he had net been moralizing ; he had neither commended the virtues nor con demned the vices of tobaueo ; he had sim ply stated facts, oue of which was that all thu great nations of the earth had dorived immoube revenues from tobacco, the United States being no oxceptlon ; when the eivil war breke out and inoreasod rev eneos wero required, tobacco nnd whisky wero taxed te raise the meney, and it was rained. As te its being porululeus aud uo ue uo struative of mind nnd body he would mero ly Hay that a great majority of our great tnen use tobacco, aud the oue whom he regards ns the foremost man of the uatieu Is known te be a constant smoker. Win. II. Hreslus said he legarded the tobacco iuterest tuotie of the most import- meut iutercsts el our county, liiore are hundreds of families who wero formerly peer and dependent, who new own happy homes whieh they galned by growing tobacco j it has udvuuoed the cause of lcarnlug by effering thorn meaus te odueato thelr children. The introduction of tobacco into Lancaster county has been a blessing nnd net a ourse, Mr. Eugle, in reply, said he had no doubt that many families had soeurod homes by cultivating tobaeoo ; but for every family that had been thus boneflted twenty or perhaps fifty famllles had been Injured and provented from gettlug homes by Its use. When bread or ether uoocos ueocos uoecos sarlos ought te have been bought, the meney was spout for tobaceo. Mr. Linville In renly te Mr. Uresius, said that iustead of tobaceo furthering the interests of education, thore is nothing that Is doing mero te provent odueatiou. In his own neighborhood boys from Vi te 10 years of age, nre kept out of school that they may go into the tobacco eullars te assist In stripping tobaceo. Many a head of a family will go te the store, buy as little as pessible of the oheapost gre- corles ntid dry goods for family line, but will always have the best cigars and the best whisky for himself, nnd thus the family must suder that he may gratify a dopraved tnste. Tobaceo is n ourse and net a blessing iu any community. Mr. Engle oalled attontlen te seme prepositions made by him at a former meeting rolatlve te effering premiums te the boys of the county who raised the best crops of seme given btaple. Mr. Linville said he favored the propo prepo sition nnd moved that a committee of three be appointed te frame aud report a soale of preralums at next meetlng. The motion was agreed te and the chair ap pointed Messrs Linville, Engle nnd Wlt mnr said committee The question of holding a county Insti tute of farmern was next taken up nnd advocated by Dr. Wiokersham, J. F. Wit mer, Calvlti Coepor aud ethers. Mr. Eu Eu geo moved that such an Institute be held, and that a oemmittco of flve, of whom Dr. Wiokersham and Calvin Coepor shall be momberH, be appointed te arrange the details aud repert at thu next meet ing. The motion was agreed te nnd the chair appointed the following additional mom mem mom eorH of the commltteo : Mes.srs. II, M, Emtie, Win. II. Hreslus, Jehn II. Limits. Mr. Engle prosentod seme cars cf corn befere the society aud made seme remarks en the best means of improving the quality of our com, much of which had failed te ceme te maturity last year, much of it being unfit for seed, and some of it unlit for feed. Of several varioties named, he thought that known as " small yellow gourd " was the best, but it might be improved by oareful cultivation. This may be dene by selecting for seed thoe ears euly which nre well rounded out with grains both at the butt ami at the point of the cob. The seed hheuld be planted by itself, he that it be net nfl'oeted by the pol len of ether varietlcs. Dr. Bellinger recommended that Heed oeru, and indeed any ether kind of soed, should be proeurod from seme locality north of the place at which it was te be planted.
