THE BDTIOATIONAL Enna: - Th 6 Emutive Cominittee of the Brad ford County Agricultural Society have decided to erect a budding far an educa- tional display this fall. Premiums are also offered for the best specimens of penmanship, map-drawing,-display of ap• paratus, and those passing the best exam: ination •in the common branches. This examination will probably liecondueted t in the educational building, • and will be open to students from' ill parts of the = county. Superitltendent Ryan, E. E. Quinlan and E. T. Bnrgau are the com mittee appointed to 'conduct . this exami uation.ilUfter the examination the papers of the. various competitors will probably be The on dxhibition. The nianagers of the fair have certainly 'shown a commendaule ' interest in the cause of education, and a generosity bard ly expected by the committee, consenting to erect 'a fine pew building expressly to 'further the; cause of education id our county. Still a building will be of little account unless it has an attraction within. The managers of the fair hive certainly done their part well, or will have done it - when the building is erected. The com mittee appointed propose todo their duty. The question remains, will the schools, ,teachers and sehmars throughout the county do theirs ? Had Vie announce ment been made sooner, and -the prerni u mug been offered a year ago, without doubt schools from every township in:the county (for we havelive teachers in every torn ship) would have sent specimens of map drawing, of improvement in penmanship,`of examination papers and apparatus, tube. exhibited: As it is dependence this fall must chiefly be placed upon the high and select schools. Wherever other schools have commenced effort should . 'be made to do something. Mao every 'teacher and ,stmieht whether at present engaged in rehool work or not, should contribute his or her mite. The aggregate would ,be' a di4lay . ofWhich the friends of edudation in old 13mdfota would be proud. • • 1 TEE ASSOCIATION'. The Sheshequin meeting of the Brad. fqrd County Teachers' Association is held this week. ,The session premises to be one.of rare interest and practical utility. Teachers and friends of education are "sure of, meeting with a cordial welcome from the g6od people of Sheshequin. For Fevera 1' sessions the people 'of Sheshequin have invited the Association to meet with them. Other sections of the county have presented' such strong cliims 'that the meetings have been held elsewhere until I lie present time. The location is central and accessible from all parts of the coun ty. Undoubtedly a large representation of the educational interest of the county will gather at this meeting. Tut: number of male students already t 'trolled in the Susquehanna Collegiate I ustitute the present term is the largest ever registered in a single term. The num 7 tier of _ladies is larger than corresponding feims in former years. Probablyithe num ber of students enrolled during the term will be the largest since the school was opened. The teachers'f, class already has over turfy, and before the close of the term, will probably be above halt a hundred. PAntms - appointed to solicit subscrip tions for the Bradford County School ,Journal, should be prepared to report as far as they can at Slieshetiulii during the A::Sodistioat. THE next session of the Bradford Cininnty Teachers' Association, will be held in Slieshequin, September 12 and 13. Coiii,mttee on Arrangeinimia—Maj. W. H. H. GOES, P.H. KIN Y, C. F. AYRES, Mfrs. C.

The advantage of sheltering lands and'buildings by trees has long been admitted by the more observing, and many are now selecting groves as their building spots, in order to avail themselves of the protection these dive from the high winds of . winter; 0 i as well as from the fierce glare pf the Summer sun. While many are doing , ,this, there are not a few others mho are pitching their homes on the* hill tops, for removed 'from shades and screens, regardless alike of the furi ous blast and their 'own comfort .as well as,that of their animals. True, 'such situations are well adapted for the diriplay of white paint, a color very common in the country; but what ideas comfort or home can be associat with such citadels up on the h' never could imagine. During t winter the' severity, of ideas the weather was a subject of remark by everybody. Its winds were tie fluent and unusually severe. Their influence upon man and beast was felt in a manner that might well lead one to exclaim: "Is there not a rem edy ?" Now I venture the assertion that, not only was there much less wind than in exposed places, but that there was an average diilereice of several degrees of temperature in in favor of the protected localities. The labor of planting out a suffi cient membir of trees to break the wind from the garden and buildings connected is comparatively trifling. A trench may be dug in which the plow may be made to perform much labor, and.the trees (evergreens) can be removed in a short time, for they may be found in old, pastures or swamps, or at the nursery; where they can be obtained at a trifling ex pense. When once trapsplanted they neei no further care than protection • from animals that would 'otherwise be almost certain in theearly s period of their growth to destroy them. es-, pecially the under branches, which should be entire. I can imagine many might urge as an objection that these protecting belts would' occupy'too much land. FOrtun.vtely, ours is a country of sufficient extent to give to every reasonable man the land be wishes for eVery purpose of im provement. ,' If it . were not so, the land is' not lost on which trees are growing, but is increasing . in 'vilue at a high rate. But allowing it is lost, what then, if the adjoining lands are made to produce :More by the loss than they did before the narrow strip was occupied by the belt? The increase of comfort in winter is also to be added to the increased produc tiveness of land. It is not aavonder that farmers are more -engaged in protecting their dwellings and gar dens in this cheap and' simple way. N. P. RICKS. After killing, the carcasses dry and thoroughly tool, - twenty-four hours or so. The sides and hams are then rubbed,over with Porto Rico molas ses. Salt is heated • in,an iron vessel to' a dry fine powder, and piniost "red hot," when it is spread quickly over the smeared pork, and when coo! enough is thoroughly mixed with the hand. After about three days the same process is repeated. They then lie in a dry and.tool place for a couple of weeks, when they are ready for smoking. No brine is used to' toughen the pork or r hams or affect the flavor. The smoking is contiued at intervals, with care' not to get up a heat by a continuous fire. Two fires a day arc made with corn cobs or dry oak or hickory. The total smoking—that is, the timefthe meat is well surrounded with smoke—is 100 to 120 hours in all.. After smoking enough. the bacon or hams are picked in dry barrels or hung up and kept dry and cool. That to be kept into or through the next sum liter is rolled in plenty of newspapers, packed in barrels and covered over with a thick layer of dry wood ashes. A gentleman who has tried it says he has never lost a-pound, and never failed to have bacon and hams sweet and delicious to the taste, and com manding the highest price in the market. We should add, that in curing very large hams by this pro cess, as a safety precaution, he makes small openings down to the bone joints, and fills them with the hot salt.- He cures beef in the same way, but only puts it through the first salting process. Indeed some of his neighbors give pork and hams only the first salting, but he deems the second application, above described; as better, and insuring. perfect sue cot) always. The black powder observed in grains of wheat, oats, barley or lye, and ears of corn, is generally known as smut. Viewed under a microscope of high power this smut is seen to be a mass of black, round balls. These are the seeds of - a plant or _fungus which has , several stages of growth and finally reproduees a new set of spores. These seeds will float in the atmosphere, and adhere with. out being noticed to the grain.' When grains of -wheat are sown with this fungus ati,ached the fungus strikes .a filament into the 'tissue of the plant and.infects it as with poison. -- The parasite penetrates throughon4the tissues of the plant, sometimes as with• corn bursting out upou,Ahe stock but generally appearing alt the ear. it hasbeen discovered that caustic allies destroy the.substance of smut; and also that the applioa; tion of sulphates of iron, copper and MeltOr for Lands.

The',usual method Of applying these 'remedies is to steep the 'seed in siolutfon of the various-- anbstances. 7 Thai solution 'may be made as follows, and 'either the one or the other may ,be used as found convenient: One pound common salt in one gallon of water. OtiOpound glauber salts'in one gallon of water. Four ounces sulphate Of copper in one , gallon-of water. Sufficient of the solution should be made to satu- rate the seed 'or' thoroughly Moisten every 'grain. When the seed has steeped for two hours it. is drained and spread upon , a floor and sprinkl ed with dry lime in powder; that which has been air-slacked by - ex. posure to the atmosphere in a covered shed until it falls into a fine dust is best fitted for this use. The seed is then shovelled and stirred until each grain bas been coatel with lime. In 'an hour or two it will be dry awl may be sown. There are at least fifteen,, species of 'the smut fungus known' to botanists. A Pennsylvania Fruit Farm. The Erie (Pa.) Herald publishes the : following concerning the fruit. farm, of. Mr. A. Battles, at, Girard, in that county:, "The largest; finest, and most productive fruit farm : in Brie county, perhaps in the State, is -that Of the gentleman whose'name, is at the.bead of this article. Although this farm is only about three miles from this beautifulborough of Girard, I venture - to l'eay that, many persons in this township who are admirers of rural beauty and choice fruit have never seen , it. Of 10,000 or' 12,000 bearing fruit trees on these two bun dred acres, 6,000' are apple trees; 1,500 pear- trees; 2 3 500 peach trees;- and suolquince trees; ,all of choice varieties._ When I visited the farm in June, theiprospect for a fine yield of apples, pears and peaches was flatter ing; but the severe and protracted droUght hati caused 'much of the fruit to wither and fall. Mr. - B. has six acres of grapes, mostly Concords, although he grows Catawbas, Isabel las and other choice kinds to aecom niodate his cnstoiners. 'As his farm is bounded on the 'west by a dense forest, his fruit have never been in jured by that destructive insect, the rosebug. "Fourteen acres of the farm are planted to strawberries, raspberries and blackberries. Mr. B. prefers the, Crescent Seedlingto any other straw berry for 'the table or market. Its yield is wonderful. It is larg er than the 'Wilson and.bas a finer c olor and flavor.' . . ."Although the estreinely dry weather has probably reduced the yield one-half,. I present .the figures below as a. result of Mr. V.'s straw berry,season. Whole amount gather ed froth 14 acres,- 275 bushels mostly Wilsons. Whole amount for Crescent Seedlings gathered.from one-tenth of an acre, 471 bushels, or at the rate of 475 - bushels" per acre.

They run in the orchaid, and become fat easily and in a short time by feed ing on the grass and on the diseased and immature fruit that drops from the trees.° FOUL SHEATH IN liOlisES.—There nothing that' pullshorse 'down faster than foul sheath:- Farmers and 'all having charge of hOrses should know that is no hard matter to clean a.horse-'s sheath and keep it Clean. The best way is to feed,good, wholesome 'food, that: will prevent the disease ; but .that cannot always be done; and then We have to resort - to a cure, which I find generally a very easy matter. Pare the nails of the right , hand smooth and take as .inuch clean lard, free. from salt, as can be held by the points of the fingers and thuMb. Insert the band to the bottom of the sheath, and as the. hand is 'withdrawn leave all the lard. Repeat the operation two or three times at intervals. of about two, days, and my, experiece is ,that iii nine cases out of ten the horse will be all•right. If not, wash. out care: fully 'with lukewarm water, but it is plan to use the "rater in very ,cold weather. lam now nearly three siore years old, but never saw a case of foul sheath !Intl' about twenty fiVe years ago, and I finenow, when my horses are fed on good pure hay cetvell cured corn - fodder, free from all mould and dust, that they are not troubled, but while feeding Hungar ian bay it is next to impossibility to keep them clean. I have never seen atorse , troubled with that disease while fed on good corn fodder. SALT, SULTDER AND crIARCOAL ron pios.—We have observed that when: pigs are fed a great deal of heaity food they are fond of, salt and char coal. Pigs are often, Affected with indigestion -and the salt and chiv e-oaf. are goad remedies. We canpot well mix these things with their food in the right proportion, and, more over, it would not be best-to atteOpt to force a pig- to eat them unleks it wanted to, or. else its appetite might be destroyed and harm came from tbe , experirnent, but by mixing the salt and charcoal together, and put ting them in a box - accessible: to the pigs, they will eat no more than they require. There is no. danger injut ting either salt or.charcoal or sul phur, where the pigs cart 'get them, but to mix them in their food might injure them, especially if Due of them should possess a voracious appetite. Hogs will eat a considerable quant ity of sulphur, and it ia exceedingly healthful to them as a purifier of the blood, and to help them to get rid of the vermin which invest their bodies inside and out, we wankthe pig we are going to eat to has plenty of sulphur, at least all they will take. -their flesh makes better fooii:— Rural New Yorker.
