Cooper, Uird-in-Hand ; Jacob Bellinger,
Warwick ; Wm. II. Brosius, Drumore ;
J. M. Johnsten, city ; Jehn J. Martin,

Jehn J. Martin, Maner, was elected a
member of the society.
Crep BeperU.
Calvin Cooper, Bird-in-IIand, reported
the grain crops short, and net of very
geed quality ; corn premises well, but is
buffering for want of rain, as is also the
tobacco; apples and peaches premise an
average crop ; the potato crop is a failure ;
young clever leeks very sickly and timothy
net much better.
Jacob Bellinger, of Warwick, said the
eats yielded an average crop ; corn leeks
well ; potatoes geed ; tobacco small, but
well set, and being somewhat injured by
insects; the young grass amounts te
n (tiling ; fruit leeks healthy but net very
plenty, though there may be an average
crop.
Jehn II. Landis reported corn as looking
very geed ; tobacco unusually fine ; eats
.short in straw but grain geed ; clever
vciy peer ; apples of geed quality, al
though lacking in quantity ; peaches are
an average crop.
Henry Kurtz, of Mount Joy,repertad the
wheat as very geed ; corn premises well,
but needs rain ; tobacco is also suffering
from want of rain ; grass and timothy
were very short and new grass fields very
peer. The army worms and grasshoppers
are plenty and had damaged the wheat,
corn and tobacco.
M. I). Keudig did net kuew of a single
geed field of young grass, and this seems
in be the general report from all parts of
county.
J. F. Witmer, of Paradise, reported
clever as being right well set, apples abun
dant ; peaches net se plenty ; wheat in
ferior. The County Fair.
I)r. S. S. Ilathven reported that 3,000
: ipies of the premium list for the county
I'.iir had been printed without cost te the
society. The list had also been printed fu
the Farmer for June.
It was moved by M. 1). Kcndig, and
carried, that the premium list be distribut
ed at the expense of the members of the
heard of managers.
Cutting Elders and Itriars.
"What is the best time te cut elders
and briars te destroy them ?" was next
discussed.
M. D. Kcndig thought the best time is
when they first appear te nip them in the
bud.
S. P. Eby mentioned an instance of hew
the Canada thistle had been destroyed : It
cannot live without lungs, and by cutting
it off and destroying the tops, and repeat
edly plowing up or plowing under the
roots and planting in corn, the pest may
be destroyed. He thought this the het
time of year te cut briars and ciders.
Jehn II. Landis, said there was a patch
of Canada thistles en his farm that had
been dug up by the roots five years in suc
cession, but they could net be get rid of.
New they are kept down by repeated
mewing.
Jehnsen Miller said a friend of his had
get rid of the thistle by cutting them oil
and sewing the patch with salt and cover
ing it with straw manure.
Calvin Cooper believed the plan recom
mended above by Mr. Eby would kill the
thistle if iersisted in. Te destroy the
elders he thought the best plan was te pull
up the young sprouts while they are grcm
and succulent.
President Witmer said he had destroyed
whole hedges of elders and briers along
the inside fences by removing the fences,
cutting away the ciders and thoroughly
plowing up the greud. This is the best
time of year te de the work.
The questions of "feeding sour milk te
calves," and "hew te use night soil," were
postponed until next stated meeting.
Strawberry Culture.
Jehn II. Landis read a valuable essay en
the culture of strawberries, which we are
forced te emit by the great pressure upon
our columns.
lief erred Question.
What is the best mode of transplanting
trees ? Should they be watered and if se in
what way ? Referred te Calvin Cooper
for answer at next meeting.
Fruit en Exhibition.
Messrs. Cooper, Eby and Laudis were
appointed a committee te test and report
en the fruits en exhibition, and reported
that II. M. Engle of Marietta, exhibited
eleven varieties of early peaches as fellows :
vz., the Musser, Beatrice, Briggs, May,
Louisa, ltivers, Cumberland, Saunders,
Downing, Alexandcrand Wilder, of which
the Downey, Wilder, Sanders, and Musser
arc the finest in appearance and the Musser
of the best llaver. Seme of the ether vari
ties have the appearance of premature
riiicning, and hence de net appear te as
geed advantage as they otherwise might.
Calvin Cooper exhibited a specimen of the
red Astrachan of geed size and fine ap
carance and flavor.
A Newspaper Fraud.
Yesterday a beat, who represented him'
self as being agent for Die Laterne, the
German weekly newspaper, called en a
number of German citizens, from several
of whom he received money. His mode of
operations was as fellows : He would call
at a house and tell the woman that her
husband had subscribed for the paper
and had sent him for the money.
In most cases the women swallowed the
bait and the man received at least $1, and
at some houses $2. After getting the
money he would give a receipt. A number
of these receipts have been examined and
it has been ascertained that they all bore
different names, all of which, how
ever, were in the same hand
writing. The man is short and stout ; he
has a light moustache and his hair is cut
short He is rather dirty and is inclined
te be impudent. At several houses he
almost forced money from women by
frightening them. The publishers of the
Laterne have been troubled considerably
te-day en account of the transactions of
this man, who is a fraud of the first
water, having no connection whatever
with any newspaper.

A postal card received te-day by J. P.
Martin, of the Relay house,anneunccs that
David Strachau, bugler of Ce. 15., 8th U.
S. Cavalry, was recently captured
and killed by the Indians in the vicinity of
Fert Clark, Texas. The postal was written
by Scrgt. Dudley of Ce. B., 8th Cavalry,
who wants te knew what shall be done
with Mr. Strachan's effect.
David Strachau, when a boy of 10 years
en'isted in Nevin's battery and served
during the rebellion. At the close
ei the war he enlisted in the
81 h Cavalrv and served live
years, when he came home and after

gine and tender backed up the track in
rear of the Relay house, the tender strik
ing the horse's head and pushing him
from the track just in time te save Mr.
Zeek from being crushed beneath the
wheels. These who saw the accident say

watchman at this dangerous crossing?

fabrication. H. Silykfneu.
