WALKS AND TALKS ON THE FARM. How much land can a man plow in a day ? I have heard men tell of plowing two acres; and a half, but never saw it done. In Eng land, where they plow narrow furrows, say 9 inches-wide and 6 inches deep, an acre is considered a fair day's work, taking one day with another. Here we plough, unwisely as I think, much wider, but do we not lose near ly as much time in resting the horses as would make up for the difference ? Narrow fur rows, say 10 inches wide and 7 inches deep, turned orer at an angle ox 45°, is both theo rhetrically and practically the best style of plowing ; and if we plough wider, we should go deeper, and unless we use three horses, no ordinary team can keep steadily at such hard work without injury. With a team that walks naturally at a good pace, it is better to plow narrower furrows and let them walk at a fair speed, than to tax them too heavily with ft wide furrow, which necessitates their resting every other bout. The tiuie lost in thiß way is far greater than is generally sup posed. But lam regarded already too much in the light of an innovator to attempt any thing more than a very gradual change. I find it better to let men do pretty much as they have been accustomed to. Still I would really like to know what is about the aver age rate of plowing in different parts of the country, and what hours are kept. By look ing at my record, I find that we ploughed a thirty acre field of corn stubble for barley, with three teams, in 71 days—euv 30 acres in 22} days, or just 1} acre per day for each team. 6:4") to 11:45, and from 1.30 to 6.30, say 10 hours a day. With a furrow slice 10 inches, it takes about 16} miles of travel to plow an acre and a half. In a field of 200 yards long the experiments of the Earl of Mar, as given by Sinclair, show that over two hours are lost in turning. Even, then, if no time is allowed to breathe the horses, tbcy would have to walk steadily along at the rate of over two miles an hour to plow an acre and a half. I doubt very much whether far mers really plow as much in a day as thev think they do. They do not keep an exact account of the time, or measure the land ac curately.—American Agriculturist The Crop of 1860. The New York Tribue, of Monday, takes a survey of the crop prospect of 1866, and so far it has positive information. It is certain that the winter wheat in the State of New York and several other States will be a very snort crop. Upon the "true wheat lands" of that State, of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Indiaua, Illinois, Ac., the prospect for winter wheat is very unfavorable. The prospect of a large crop of spring wheat in Minnesota is flattering, and a larger amount was sown than usual. The same is true of the spring sown grain in other West ern States. Winter wheat is badly killed in many places. There will be about a half an average crop of winter wheat in Ohio, Ken tucky and Illinois, but not more than one quarter of a crop in Ohio, and something bet ter in Indiana. Up the valley of the Illinois from Alton, the winter wheat never was bet ter. though nearly destroyed in the eastern part oi the State. The prospect is fair for a good yield in Maryland Delaware and parts of Pennsylvania, but as a whole the prospect of a full crop of winter wheat in all the Nor thern States is certainly unfavorable. A large breadth of spring wheat has been sown, but it is too soon to begin to calculate whatit really will be, as it has many enemies to combat before harvest time. The rye crop in New- England, Eastern New York, and a part of Pennsylvania and New Jersey bids fair, as a general thing, for a good crop. The oats crop is not promising except in some parts of the West. There has been a larger crop of corn planted than usual, but it is too early to say what it will be. Protecting Trees Against Worms. The bandage system, which we were the first to suggest some fifteen years ago. and have often referred to since, is the only effectual protection we have yet seen against the ope rations of the worm in fruittrees. We repeat again that in not a single instance have we ever had a worm in our dwarf pear trees v where this system was properly followed, It is simply to bandage the bottom of the tree with any kind of muslin or cloth and tie it, letting the bandage be about six inches above ground and two inches below. It should be applied in February or as soon as the ground is in a fit condition to go upon. These band ages should be removed at the end of Octo ber. As long as this is continued we defy the worm. The bug lays its eggs an inch or two above the ground early in the spring that is as soon as the warm days in March will admit of its coming forth from its winter quarters; the eggs are soon hatched by the sun, beiDg laid on the sun-side of the trunk, and the young grub finds its way down to the soft bark beneath the soil where it gradually works its way in. The bandage prevents both the laying of the eggs and the descent of the grub. Let doubters try it. One man will bandage two hundred trees in a day. We have no doubt it will also protect the peach tree in the same way.— Germantuicn Tele graph. CauroKKiA WlNES.—According to the last biennial report of the Surveyor General of California, Shasta county contains grape vines ; El Dorado, 1,164,418 ; Butte, 500,000 ; Calaveras, 364,000 ; Placer 467,000; Nevada 120,000, and Siskryon, 20,000. The total is 4,905,418 grape vines. There are also 377,000 enclosed acres in these seven counties, with 842,000 apple trees. These statistics show the attention which is being paid to viniculture in California. The State has long been known as the equal of France in this variety of husbandry. The old Cath olic priests pronounced its grapes and wine equal to those of Judea, and some of the vines which they planted are yet bearing hun dreds if not thousands of annual clusters. The manufacture of wine and brandy has giv en immense value to the production there, and acres upon acres are being devoted to a cultivation which must sooner or later make the whole region a Sicily or Madeira to us.

They are more easily understood and used, and le.-s liable to derangement than other ma chines. 3. They are capable of executing perfectly, without change of adjustment, a much greater variety of work than other machines. 4. The stitch made by these machines is much more iirui. clastic, and durable, especially upon articles which require to be washed and iron 1, than any oiher stitch. 5. This stitch, owing to the manner in which the under thread is inwrought, is much the most plump and beautiful in us -, and retains this plumpness and beauty even upon articles frequent ly washed and ironed until they are worn out. 6. The structure of the seam is such that, though it be cut or broken at intervals of only a few stitches, it will neither open, run, or ravel, hut remains firm and durable. 7. Unlike other machines, these fasten both ends of the seam by their owu operation. 8. With these machines, while silk is used upon the right or face side of the scam, cotton may i-e used upon the other side without lessening the strength or durability of the seam. This can be done on other machine, and is a great saving upon all articles stitched or made up with silk. These machines, in addition to their superior merits as instruments for sewing, by a change ot adjustment, easily learned and practiced, execute the uiost beautiful and permanent embroidery and ornamental work.

Americans are proverbial for the aridity and commendable zeal with which they participate in enterprises having ft tbeir object the develop ment of our national resources. At one time "Railroads —at another "Coal"—then "Copper" or "Iron ' and more recently "Oil"' have been the all-absorbing topics. In all these several enterprises, as will be recol lected, those who FIRST took hold of them made money ; some larger amounts than ethers, accord ing to llieir investments. Mining operations in the fields of Colorado and elsewhere note mainly engross the public atten tion- Considering that several such companies hare been already organized—they are now at work —that the reports from their mines are high ly favorable—that it is known that at the present, time there are on the way from the ledges of Ne vada and Colorado numerous "bars of silver" and "bricks of gold," it is believed that the enthusi asm already manifested on the subject will, in a little time, be so greatly increased on the recent and exhibit of these "returns," that innumerable companies will spring up, whoso (ock, being bas ed at the then greatly inflated prices of ledges, will necessarily be loss desirable than that now to be had—thereby giving to those who avail them selves of the occasion now presented, of securing "original interest#;" an opportunity of then dis posing of the large amount of stock each holder ,receives, at a handsome advance.

THOMAS MASON, Att'y at Law, Ccutral City, Colorado. The space of a circular in too limited to give the opinion* of numerous distinguished citizens and men of science who have examined this dis trict; the following extracts relate thereto, and that of Prolessor Edward N. Kent_iu particular of the New York U. S. A-.-ay Office is direcily in point: Our late lamented President—Mr. Lincoln—du ring an iutcrvie w with Speaker Colfax, relative to the hidden wealth of Colorado, Nevada, Ac,., said: "1 have very large idea- of the win, rai wealth of our nation : I believe it practically inexkausti hie." The Hon. J. Pi upsher, Secretary of the Inic rior, in the Official Report presented to Congress, dated December oth, 1c64, referring to the then present condition of our Western territories, says: "The wealth embedded iu the rooks of tiurt exten sive region is actually inexhaustible, and it vrib furnish in future years, indirectly a principal part of our means of liquidating tho debt con tracted by the Government for the overth rowof the Great Rebellion." The Hon. 11. P. Bennett, delegate in U'ongi from Colorado, in a speech before the House ot Representatives said: "Judging from wiiat x knew of the undeveloped resources of this conn try; from what 1 am told by practical minors who arc well informed upon this subject, I do =ay here to-day before this House and before this Country, to be placed upon the records and read of all men —that within live year's timo, and by the year 1569, tho gold fields uf Colorado Territory wiil produce SoO,OOU,OnU annually ; and even thou its full resources or mineral wealth in gold alouo re main not wholly developed- I speak from the uuiied testimony of many practical miners who have spent many years iu Hie mines ol California, whea i say :—that the gold-bearing region ot Colorado is iar more extensive,quite us inexhaust ible, and the gold-bearing quartz of a much richer quality than in California.' Prole or Edward N. Kent, of ti. New fork Assay 'Jltiee. says,: "As to the extent of the gold mines ol Colora do, 1 aui not prepared to give an e umate, as 1 found enough to fuliy employ my tnue within a radius of live utiles of Central City, [the location ot the abdve Ledges,] but as to the richness of THEM, 1. have no hesitation in saying, that J 6c liere them to be the riekeet eeer discovered. \\ If.il dcicr.ee, capital and the Pacific iituirouj, COl na si! is destined in my Opinion, to nvai or supersede California and Australia, and become the Hi Do rado of the World." The opinion entertained by those abroad ol claims in this district, 1* shown y ike following extract : English capitalists have purchased X6i)o,bol> ..t the Colorado mining ian .s, and their agents and employees are now en rente to develop the same. The claims are principally in Russell and Trait districts, aud a recent por-diii >: fas been the cea ton I.ode of lhiui levt Id.'which they paid Xltbi,- 1)00.

As ail'a.e aware, the usual plan adopted for the development of such a property i< to form a company and Usui- cerlitieaies ol toek. The plan here proposed may be considered prelimina ry to tho formation ol two or more Companies on these properties' which are subject to no royalty, lease or mortgages. The SCBSCHiBuns can thca upon this solid and suootariitai basis, elect ofl'eqrs from uuioug them selves, each subscriber beiug eligible to the posi tion of ah officer of the Company. in order that handsome returns may bespeeililv realized, these subscriptions are based upon the proposition that tho subscribers immediately on. receipt of (be Deeds (now ready for delivery, and which may be examined at the office of the un dersigned before subscribing,) may lease their lands on heavy royalties, or at once organize Companies in the usual way for which there is an ample basis. To accommodate those of moderate means these "interests" are put at SIOO each, in order to get the list filled at once, and to pre vend any ciehi, 111 the organization of the Company. Considering the numerous valuable "Le iges" which constitute the bat is of this enterprise llie fair aird equitable feature.-—the low prices at which "interests" in it are offered, and that each ln.ercst entitles the holder to his pro rata share of stock in all the Companies that iny be organ ized upon them—also recollecting that in all, there are only 1000 interests to bo sold, and it would only require one hundred gem lemon each to take ten ($1000) to absorb the whole, it is pre sumed that it is hardly necessary to suggest to those desiring to secure one or more of there orig inal interests, to at onee send in their subscrip tions. 1 Checks or Drafts should bo drawn to tbe order of the undersigned, whose endorsement will be a receipt, in addition to the one that will be prompt ly sent on receiving them.
