Ilittoht YAM GARDEN ARD HOUSJEROLD, CROP - PROBPECTB The crop reports received at the Agricill thral Bureau of August and September, are of a decidedly encouraging character. Though the average yield of wheat per acre over the whole country is scarcely equal to that of last year, the increased area sown will 'secure an agregate somewhat larger. A few localities have suffered to a limited ex tent from rust or the chinch bug. The corn crop is in a fine condition generally. Since June the season has been very favoreble, and with the unprecedented increase in the area planted-2,000,000 of acres, or about nine per cent.—there must be an immense aggregatf'yield of this great staple. y il'here has been ah increased product of ha in all the Northern States, with the exception of Illinois, which reports a decline of,two per cent. The value of the crop is likewise largely enhanced, owing to its having been harvested in an excellent condition. • There will be a full yield of oats, also of rye and barley A slight increase in the average of buckwheat is reported. Potatoes have suf.' fered considerably from the bug. Little in jury has as yet - been produced, however; by the rot. Wool shows a general decline in weight of fleece of from three to five per cent. as dompared wish an average product. Though a smaller area of cotton was plant ed than last year, the culture is generally better and the prospect of a fruitful yield more promising. Hops show a large in crease in acreage. There will bean average yield of tobacco and a full crop of apples, yeaches and grapes. The report of the Bureau is a model of conciseness and definiteness. GATIIEB.ING FRUIT. The appearance and value cot' fruit depend very much upon when and how it is gath ered. Peaches should be left 031 the trees until fully ripe, and then gathered carefully with thumb and finger and at once laid into the basket or box in which they are to be mar keted. If the bloom is rubbed off the peach by rough handling, its beauty of appear ance is injured, and it will decay much sooner than if untouched. • Formerly it was "supposed that the peach must be gathered before ripe in order to ship l it any distance; but practical experience has proved that ripe fruit, not quite soft, will carry as well as unripe, and command I a much better price- . Pears and apples should never be picked from the tree by breaking the stems. Un less the stem will separate freely from the tree, the fruit is not ripe; it will neither eat nor cook good, and is only fit for those who want a touch of cholera morbus. Apples, as soon as gathered,' may be sent direct to market; but nearly every variety of pear is improved in appearance and quality' by .keeping in close, dark drawers, wrapped in flannel or soft paper, or packed in bran a few days. 'For profit, and in 'order to obtain the high est price, all fruit pays to be assorted into two or more grades. A few scattering large berries, apples or pears, in_ a quart or a bushel, do not assist in advancing the price; 'but if carefully packed by themselves will bring the highest price, and often induce the dealers to buy the small fruit in order to get the large. . ARRANGE . TO SOW MORE CLOVER. The value of red clover as a renovator of the soil is not generally appreciated. It makes excellent hay, and when consamed makes a manure very rich in nitrogen. A ton of good clover hay contains about fifty pounds of nitrogen, probably not more than one-tenth of which is lost by passing through animals. It is worth as "manure three or four times as much as that which ;re commonly cart from the yard in the spring. The crop is of very great value for pasture, or to turn in as a good crop. T,he usage of good farmers differs somewhat lin the treatment of clover. Some turn in the crop when full, grown in June. Others pas ture it the first season, and turn in what' is left for wheat. Others let it stand without pasturing, and turn it under for wheat. Others take off two crops, and turn it under the second Beacon. The most intelligetit farmers are now favoring the practice of •cutting and pasturing through one season, believing that the soil improves more by the growth of the roots. It is a very strong rooted plant, and penetrates the soil to a .great depth. The mechanical condition of the soil is very much improved by the decay, of these long tap roots. However used, ht. cannot fail to benefit the soil, if the manure ~ that is made, from the plant is carefully saved and returned to the fields where it grew. Clover ought to have its place in every rota :bon. The farmers of the interior and of the South hive the means in this plant of restoring the fertility of their wheat fields, and securing as large crops as the virgin soil yielded. Arrange to grow more clover. MANURE I THE TEST OP GOOD PARMA°. We farm for profit as a rule, however many exceptions there may be. This prcfit which we all seek comes from the sale of - the products of the land, or that of animals fed upon them. This divides farming ope rationsinto two classes, and determines the nature of them, and the system pursued on -different farms, or on different fields on the, same I farm: By far greater numbers of farmers parsue a mixed system, deriving -their income in part from crops sold, and in part from animal products. With•such an imal manure is a necessity, and the success of a farmer may be predicted upon . the amount he makes and uses. A temporary exception to this rule is seen on some of the virgin lands of the West, and wherever aPPerently inexhaustible fertility of the soil renders manure superfluous. Where a sys tem of green manuring for wheat and Indian corn, with the addition of limo and plaster and perhaps bone-dust occasionally, is suf ficient with good tillage to maintain fertility, iarmers have an economical substitute for animal manures. This system may often be profitably applied to "out fields," and occa sionally to entire farms. Manure—barn yard manure, or more properly, barn ma nure, for the yard is a poor place, at best,to make it—regarding both quantity and qual ity, miist be considered the measure of good farming, and the test of success. American Agrieu/turist. FARMERS Adam was a farmer while yet in Paradise, and after his fall, commanded to earn his bread by the sweat of his brow. Job, the honest, upright and patient, was a farmer, and his endurance has passed into a proverb. Socrates was a farmer, and yet wedded to his calling the glory of his immortal philo sophy. St. Luke Was a farmer, and divides with Prometheus tha honor of subjecting the ox - for the use of man,. Cincinnatus was a farmer, and the - noblest Boman of them all. Burns was a farmer and the Muse found him at the plow and filled his soul with poetry. Washington was a farmer, and retired from the highest earthly station to enjoy the quiet of rural life, and present to the world' a spectacle "of human greatness. • To these names may b., added a ;host of others Who sought peace and repose' in the cultivation of their Mothet 'earth; Afar thusiastic Lafayette, the steadfast Pickering, the scholastic Jefferson, the fiery Randolph, all found an Eldorado of consolation from life's cares and verdant lawns that surround ed their homesteads. UPRIGHT TREES. • It is a great mistake in orchardists and planters of shade trees to allow them to grow in a leaning attitude. And this comes generally from pure neglect. In all windy and exposed places, newly set trees are quite sure to get thrown over, if not staked up; and in all places they are apt to get out of the perpendicular. It'makes the head of an upright, syste matic man ache, to see such trees. And to obviate this, every newly planted tree should be staked and tied up with soft, broad bands to prevent chafing, or they should be well ballasted over the roots with heaps of stone. The first plan is the best, if the work is care fully done. In case a tree gets out of true line, it can be righted up by looseninn• b the soil over the roots, particularly on the leaning side. It may sometimes be necessary to cut off an obstinate root to get the tree erect. When once it is up again, fasten it there by stak ing, as above, or by a rope extending from one of the branches to a stout mg_ in the ground a fc..w feet distant.--Rural Amer. SELECTING CATTLE Let breeders select dams that have size, plenty of milking properties, with ribs out of their loins, like a bullock that is shown for a prize ; standing on short legs, wide and square made, regardless of registered improved sires, however numerous, attach ed to their pedigrees. Use only true,i fine, purely bred bulls, descended from dams of note, wide, deep and compact made when matured, with hides that fill the hand, cov. ered over with plenty of fine hair; animals naturally hardy in constitution—not so long as a barn in, their middle, and high on the leg, with flat sides, nipped in waist, and slack loins. Select the best of sires from bulls with undeniable pedigrees ; no mixed up alloyed gentlemen, •full of cart-horse blood, which give substance only in appear ance, and that is not propagated, in the stock. Avoid under-breeding in your bulls; cull, draft and sell bad milking- cows and doubtful, bad breeders; stick to milk, to size, to robustness of constitution, and suc cess mist attend your efforts.—ifark Lane Express, (E'ng.) GRAPES ABOITP ROCKS. The past season was a very peculiar one— wet and cold, and the grapes in many local ities East failed to ripen. While this was generally true, it was rather refreshing to observe at one of our horticultural exhibi tions splendid specimens of a veil known variety, apparently fully ripe, which wa ound on inquiry bad grown near A ledge of rocks. Some years ago we visited a place where we observed similar results from a similar cause". The whole secret of the thing is, that the rocks absorb the heat of the,sun by day, and give it off at night, keping the routs of the vine warm, and the temperature about it more fully equal ized. Our attention was once attracted to this same subject by observing that the melon vines in a hill around which- some atones had been placed were much larger at the end of a few Weeks than those in the hills that nad not been so treated. The same principle is observed in cities, where grape vines are trained in front of brick walls,- which absorb the heat by day and reflect it whoa most needed by the vine. We pro pose to test more fully the_ value of such treatment for the vine by. placing stones about the roots of several bearing vines, in different parts of the vineyard where they failed this year to ripen a single grape.— American Journal of Horticulture. OLD FASHIONED WHEAT CROP. The Partners in this section, who are now_ In the height of wheat thrashing,., report some very large yields. A few farmers in. Bergen and Byron have raised crops that average forty bushels per acre, and a large number in Genesee and the western part of Monroe have realized thirty-five per acre. The largest yields from selected fields that we have heard of are 532 bushels from twelve acees, raised by' Ed. Emmens, of Riga, and 204 bushels from four and one-eighth acres, raised by Pitt Souires, of Chili. In quantity per acre the Genesee wheat section is returning to its old standard; but it is doubtful whether it will do so in point of quality.—Boankr (N. Y.) Chronicle. A FACT FOR FARMERS It may not be-generally known that the seed of the sun-flower is the most infallible remedy yet discovered for the speedy cure of founder iri horses. The directions, which we glean from a brief article upon the sub ject in the Essex Banner/says: Immediately on discovering that your horse is foundered, mix a pint of the white seed in his food, and it will effect a perfect cure. The seed when fed in small quanti ties to horses, is very healthy, giving to the hair a peculiar gloss. It is .a diuretic in its tendency. Fowls like it much and thrive on it. To RELIEVE from the terrible effects of run fling a nail in the foot of man or horse, take peach leaves, apply them to the wound, con fined with bandage, and the cure is as if by magic. Renew the application twice a day if necessary; but one: application generally does the work. Has cured both man and horse in a few hours, when they were apps-' rently on the point of having lock-jaw. SPECIAL NOTICES. MANHOOD AND THE VIGOR OF YOUTH restored In !Qui weeks. Suc cessguaranteed.
