FARMERS' COLUMN. u&fftwly niMfOvrrcd Corcnl. A cored has been discovered in Western Kansas awl New Mexico that Is more nutri tious than corn, oats or rye, ami which will grow where other grains have withered and died. -from Mtfemo drouth. It is called EilTtlan corn, or pampas rice, and the seed is supposed to havo "been originally brought to the 0ntcd States from (Southern Kussia by the, Mennonite emigrants. Mr. Ilolllngs- wor.lfi,'of Chicago, tried it on a dry belt of ground 316 miles west of Kansas City, and oltliounh there had not even u drop of rain fell for eight months previous to the plauting and five weeks afterward, the seed germi nosed. FJro did not affect It, nnd it was as much, indifferent to rain as It was to heat. It grew as a stalk of corn and topped llko sofghuJnjjyhlch drooped over and the whole was a mass 9f grain. The yield wa3 sixty bushels to the acre and sixty pounds to the bushel. It is food for both man and beast, and the stalk makes an excellent fuel. A number of farmers havo written to tho Chi carfi Tribune from Western Kansas stating tbXhoy are familiar with Iho newly-dis-covered cereal nnd Indorse all that Mr. Hoi llngswprth has to say about it.

Ryo 6traw is now extensively used in tho manufacture of paper, nnd is worth as much per ton as the best timothy hay. A cow belonging to F. II.

At Trcxlcrtown, Lehigh county, thcro is an apple treo known to bo over 100 years old, tlrcttlll bears fruit of a very cxccllont feiud. Reports from nil parts of tho State are rto the effect that the farmers aro busy at wflrk"prcparing ground, and expect good crops this year. Secretary Sherman reports to Congress that the cattle exports from this country in tho past six years have amounted to nearly $23,000,000. It costs from $1 to $1.25 to produeo a bushel of wheat in England. In Minnesota wheat has been produced at a cost of 40 cents per bushel. Appricots aro becoming a favorite Iruit among the growers of California, where tho climate seems to be well adapted for their propagation. Mr. Balser Weber, of Howard, Centre county, tells of a hen that got wedged be tween boards in his stable nnd existed four weeks without food or water. French poultry fanciers aro now feeding fowls designed for market with barley nnd steamed yellow carrots. This feed is remark able for its rapid fattening qualities. Among a litter of pigs recently born on the farm of Joseph Cornell.in Northampton county, is ono having five perfect legs, two distinct tails, aniLis of both sexes. Mr. James Hopkins, of East Mahoning township, Indiana county, has a cow that has had five calves insido of twenty-two months. All aro living ami doing well. Erje.Chautanqua and Cattaraugus coun t es in New York comprise what iscalled the Erie apple bolt, and from thero was shinned to market last fall $1,515,000 worth of ap ples. uYdvices aro favorablo for another large wheat crop. It is estimated that in eleven of the Northwestern States the yield this year. mill exceed that of last year over fifty per cent. Samples of rice grown on high ground without flooding and without tho use of fer tilizers, not long since, were exhibited " tho Florida State Fair. Tho rico was ol good quality and yielded sixty bushels to the acre. The fruit growers of Minnesota aro in hopes to find somo varieties of npplos l'n Itussta which will withstand the severity of their winter climate, which is found very trying for such fruit as thrives in New En, land. r-Fearl millet, which has proved n fail lire in Massachusetts, is grown with success iu Kunsas. Some growers say that it is 50 percent. Mter than corn fodder,nnd stands dry weather much better than corn, or any other kind of millet. Tiie annual npple crop of tho United States Is estimated to bo worth $51,000,000 The peach crop is estimated at $50,000,000 the pear orop at $15,000,000, and the 6trav lierry crop at 35,000,000.' Tho annual ex ports of canned fruits uro estimated at $1 901)090. A fox which was neither gray, red nor black, but had a gray stripo on each side, whlla tho rest of tho body was black, was killed in Cherry township, Indiana county, a few days ogo. Ilcynard was of the female persuasion, yery hug, and Iho mother of five pupa. A well known citizen of Londonderry, Chester county, on a recent Saturday night, was presented by his wife with a fiue baby boy. On the same night his mare gave birth to a oolt, his cow to a calf nnd one of bis sows to a litter of pigs. The most won derful part of this influx of new life is that al) tho births aro of the male persuasion. To bring your fruit trees forward rap idly they should be transplanted at least three times, with careful and judicious root pruning. Grapo vines, and especially straw berry plants, aro greatly improved by this means. The roots love the fresh soil of the new home, while cutting their roots causes them to send out lateral branches nnd thick en up. -r-The tent ealorplllir may bo easily do ttroyed'at this season of tho year by exam ining the ends of tho small twigs, where the eggs are deposited in small rings fastened together, and to the tree with a glutinous deposit.
