My own ob servation fully coincides with the opinions of correspondents. Poor seed will cost the State the loss c-l several—perhaps forty—million bush els of corn. The same complaint of poor seed, (roin same cause, con ca from Illinois and the other great com States. The importance of early fi b-cling and pro|ieriy drying std corn, each farmer for himself, is aav agely impressed this year." Differences in Wheat. We quote the followlrj h from the New York Time*, wiittcn by the agricultural editor after a careful examination of the many experimen tal plot* then growing on (he IlHraPi experimental farm. In this connec tion we pro|o#e to publish aoon, if practicable, a tabulated report of an extended aeries of experiments con ducted by Mr. Thome, farm manager of the Ohio State University, show ing st a glance all the good and bad qualities of most o( the leading va rieties of wheat: "There is wheat and wheat. Two fields alike in every respect may vary greatly in yield by reason of the kind of wheat grown. One may te very short in the head and the other twice as long; in one the apikeleta may be very loosely placed on the raclds or stem, and the other may have them more crowded. In some kinds of wheat the apikclet has three grain*, frequently the central floret is empty, and instead of three grains Lhere are but two in each apikelct. This makes a difference of one-thinl in the yield of the crop in favor of the completely filled apikclet. Hut let us go further. We find in one head, which is short or loosely put together, but six or seven apikeleta on each side, and in another as many as twelve or even more. This makes another great difference in favor of the better variety of wheat. We then count up the grains, and in the one head we find 24 or 28 grains and in the other 72, or even as many as 90 in extra-large and well-filled spikes. If one, then, yields 15 bushels of grain per acre, the other would yield 45. And this cause of difference is extremely common, and any farmer can know how it is himself by mere ly examining the wheat in different fields, or the different heads in the same field. We take time and space only to oltserve here the importance of making this characteristic of the wheat plant the principal basis in se lecting seed rather than the size of the grain, although this is also an element not to be ignored. Let the seed be Selected in the field from the longest, most compact, and best-filled heads, and let this method be pursued each year. It will lead to a great improvement in varieties or wheat." JOSEPH HARRIS says that we can make our lands poor by growing clover and selling it, or we ean make them rich by growing clover end feeding it on the farm. The Berkshire Hog. from Cnm>|>idnr> of lb* Hi-robl. This breed seems to carry away the "sweepstakes" as often as any other, and its ability to do so is due to the perfection to which it has been bred. It has certain peculiar marks, and a breed that unerringly comes true to spots in color is indeed worthy to be placed in the list of tliorougiibreda. Now, we can well understand that a solid white hog, like the Suffolk, Yorkshire or Chester white, will pro duce young that are purely white, and that a solid black hog, like the Kssex, will show the same in the lit ters of pigs ; but when it is expected that a hog must impress certain Bpots on its progeny, and those spots to be exactly on certain parts of the body, we must admit that breeders have l>ecn very skillful witli Berkshire*. The breeder has placed a white spot on the forehead of the Berkshire and a white spot on each foot, like a stocking ; ami there is, likewise, a white spot on the tuft of the tail. With these exceptions the body is black. Is it not wonderful that every pure Berkshire has exactly these marks, with no deviation—no more nor any less—but a true, unerring set of badges or marks are thus fixed, arid which act as his ty|es of purity ? lie is noted for the line hams lie pro duces in preference to other breeds, and fifty years have lieon spent in de veloping him to his present state of excellence. The Berkshire is a liv ing monument to the patience, |er severance and success of men who have devoted many years to his culture, who have spent whole for tunes to make him what lie is, and who, many of them, went to their graves unknown. The development of this breed has added millions of dollars to the wealth of this country mid Great Britain, not that it is su |erior to aU other breeds, but liecausc the perfection attained in bis success has been tbc cause of renewed inter est and pride in every oilier class of stock. Lord Western, who interest ed himself with the Kssex, spent his whole life in their improve ment, and. from Bakeweil's efforts, the sheep is an entirely dillereut animal from his day. If special breeders can thus breed sway the itn|ierfections of a breed and develop something in its place totally unlike it, is it not an evidence that every farmer can improve his stock and make it better and better every year? In fact, at the present time, farmers have great advantages. They can brain on the best of stock, correct a defect there or a fault here, and we can still have improvement. Lord Weston Bakewetl and other* twgan on "senilis,'' and it was a long ami dreary time with each of them. With the aocce** that crowned their efforts farmers conceded that lin stock twenty-five ytars ago was up to the highest degree of excellence, but even the liest Kssex Lord West ern ever bred would lie rejected to day by breeders, and BakeweSi would marvel if be was present at an exhi bition of CoUwold or Merino sheep. We owe a great deal to the breeders of lhd)nugbhrls, for every improve ment made by any one of thern is a blessing to every farmer in the coun try. By their help we are obliterat ing the long-nosed land-pike, and with their co-operation we are able to classify all our domestic animals (or s|ieciai purposes, from the horse and cow down to tue fowl that lays our egga, each into separate duties and for special purposes. We can now classify our horses into trotters, run ners and for draught; the cows for milk, butter or chceae; and from crosses with the Berkshire we can produce certain preferences in hoga. But there is not an end of improve ment vet. The rapid inventions of mechanics are no more surprising than are Uie wonderful improvements in stock at the present time, and there is room for the farmer to try as well as the special breeder. The Oanlne Curse. Iter r. t>. OSmt, I* Am#flnn AfrVihf t*L Observing men are of the opinion that an ordinary dog—and he is al ways hungry—will eat and destroy in a twelvemonth the equivalent of that which, if given to a well-bred pig, would make him weigh at the expiration of Uiat time 300 pounds, gross; 286,000 such pigs would ag gregate 85,800,000 pounds of potk, now worth at the home shipping sta tion more than $4,700,000; requir ing to transport them more tban 2,890 cars, carrying fifteen tons each, or a train more than sixteen miles long. This would represent nearly $1,500,000 more than the entire amount paid in the State In 1880 for school, township and State taxes combined; it would build 9,400 school-houses and churches, worth $5OO each, or would {my the average wages of 14,000 school teachers, twice the number now employed. A condition of affaire, of which tbe above is but a poor outline, is at tbe bottom of what is each year becom ing a greater and more irrepressible conflict between the woo) growers and the savage brutes that keep in jeopardy or destroy the flocks that, protected, would enlarge and Increase to tbe extent of producing the wool for which we now send so many mil lions across the teas. If tbe dogs are maintained as a luxury, they are a luxury we cannot afford, and ahould give way to something less expensive, and less productive of loss and mis ery. The rearing of a better class of sheep always indicates a high state of civilization, where intelligence, comfort, and com|>etence abound, and no more unfailing sign of ignorance, squalor, and poverty can IMS mani fested than the presence of a varied and incieating assortment of flea bitten curs, unclean, and of low de gree. It should not be difficult to choose between raising sheep and growing dogs. Eo Agricultural Pairs Pay ? Tim Banker In Amrrl'na Agrk ullnrt.i Jake Frink seemed to t>c nettled by Pastor Hpooncr's allusion to the White Oaks, and the charcoal busi ness, which his son Kier still follows. He said, " I guess there's more truth than poetry in what Mr. Spooner says. The White Oak* looks jest as it used to when 1 was a boy, and, for the life o' me, I don't sec enny chance for improvement. Yc see, the coun try is rocky, and the sile takes as ■laterally to white birches, pitch pine, and scrub oaks as a duck does to water. If a fe'ier gets a livin' at all, up there, lie's got to git it selling wood, and charcoal. Nuthin* else pays, and that don't much. If a feller undertakes to clear up land it costs more than it comes to to git the stones out, so lie can plow, and if he sows rye, or plants corn, the crop jvon't pay without manure, and where's your manure coming from when ye're ten miles from the shore and sea weed, and haven't got any thing but charcoal or wood to buy it with ? Ye see, it's ii[-liill business for the White Oaks, and it is no use to talk about the fairs doing the white Oakers enny good. Fact is, they don't go much, and it's just as well as If they did. And it ain't much lietler here in llookertown. lie knew Deacon Smith and 'Squire Hunker and them folks that had mon ey plenty raised better things than they used to, and took premiums, and they might make it pay, hut he had sent things to the fair for several years, but never got a red cent for a premium. My wife, Polly, gets pre miums on butter, bread, and bed quills, sometimes, and comes home so sot up that there's no livin' with |er for a week after the fair. Hut it don't seem to be for me to git any thing in that l.ne, aud I have pretty much made up my mind that the fairs are 'all talk and no cider.' " Barbed Wire for Fencing. f*rr*f A. A Ktotpp in hn**nf*t Afri'*J|uri*! * Experience has demonstrated the practical value of the following sug gestions for constructing barbed-wire fence: Set substantial post* one rod apart; the post at the starting point should lie braced by cutting a notch in it two and a half feet from the ground, and running a strong pole from the notch to the foot of the sec ond |tost, where it is fitted to rest firmly, and is supported about tbrce inches above the ground by means of a short block driven down Iteaide the fence post. This method of brac ing shonld be repealed once in forty rods. A faulty construction would he to cut the notib in the starling post four feet from the ground, make the bract: shorter, and allow the low er end to rest upon the ground ; for the moment the wire ia tightened u|>on the fence the short brace acta as a fulcrum to lift the initial post. When the posts are act a wire is wrap ped firmly around the first post, four feet and two inches from the ground; then the coil is unrolled fort}* rods and the wire drawn tight by means of a act of small pulleys with grap ples. After this wire has been secure ly stapled a second ia similarly fast ened one foot below it, and a third and fourth below this, leaving a foot space between the respective wires; the ground space ia fourteen inches. Poor wires thus arranged make a per fect cattle fence. For horses the lower wire should l
