IF you don't want to lose • your vote
don't move out of the election district in

- to be in a new district slxty days before
the election in order to insure you a'AFote.

neighbors who .wantl• to -move encourage
them with all your might. Democrats
shouldn't vote, Anyhow:

HAWES BROTHERS TOY MANUFACTORY.
*e take the following notice of the
lla . wr.s Blethers Toy :Manufactory, at
Greenwood, from the Monroeton corre
spondence found in a recent issue of the
Elmirh Gazette : , •
"In some former articles I have t cited
the tributaries of the life and proiperity
of the place, arid now with your permis
propose to touch just one item of
its importhnce in the whole of- this grand
old world'in which I write awl you print.
tour correspondent attempted the other
day to interview one of the heads of the
. ;inn of " Hawes Brothers,7. the great toy
factory of such immense enterprise and
dimensions , in our midst ; but we were
not satisfactorily successful, ) ,en the
4zround that-Mr. Hawes has some objec
titins to liat''ng his business in all its fea
tures Spread before so many people as are
swarmed on this old _human thoroughfare,
at the present writing, and in so wide a
ir,itige as is now taken in by the Gazette,
a vehicle with, which he rs somewhat fa-
Nevertheless, we will tr tdo
'that very gentlemanly firni as 'Ufa° harm
as ,possible, while at the same time we
';fhrnish a little item of common interest,
to which.tht great publiC are justly enti
tied. I but reiterate what has but just
found its way into type—that we have
here in Monroe the largest toy factory
tli;it there is in the kntiwn world. I do
not share in the opinion that celebrity to
this fact will indoce others to rushiin hnd
start additional enterprises of the kind,
tit the injury of Messrs. Hawes Brothers'
. OiI,IIICSS. ;An immense quantity of tim
bete' land, with mills and lumbering es
tablishments well ,appointed; serve to
Ifee'd this - huge factory with the necessary
material 'for manufacturing. A
,great
number of laihes awl saws and all needed
instruments, tool, and appliances, serve
to devour the material furnished. A vast
'.amount of sunshine and wind are needed
to season and dry the prepared material,
• SO as to be ready for the lathes. From the
, timber woods to the sawmills, and thence
to all the indoor and out labors, we will
count at least forty men employed on
every week day, compriSing sqtne of the
finest and most skillful mechanics that
can be found in the country; and then in
boxing .up ready for shipment, making
boxes, ere., another class of hands, while
at the:very point of no little interest, we
eiunt ,are thirty lboyS from twelve to
tw t :rity in years, each having his steady
• daily work and place of business,--out of
mischief and houri as regular as in any
institution in the land. Their orders are
from the four corners of the_ civilized
I •
world, yes, , even from China.. _Their ship.:
ments are tons by the day:: It" is bul
work to' till - their orders. Their income is
large. ' reliability is.all that can be
desired. Once a week, or in' two Weeks
as the case-may be, every boy, man and
employe, is made glad. For ten years
there has nofbeen, such a word or thing
as
.failure. The toy. faCtory of Hawes
L'rohers, of Monroe, is a fixed fact of re
liability and prosperity—a benefit to the
country. Long may it wave and Shine."
, FROM EAST TROY.
• .EAst SP.Oy , September 12th. .
The,papers announce that the yearly
pic-nic on Mt. Pisgah was a failtiee. Why?
Notbccause the. people of Western Brad
ford do not appreciate the grandeur and
beauty of the scenery there to be enjoyed,
or are lacking in those social tinaliti/A
that render sufdi occasions enjoyal4; but
it is another illustration of the great truth
that nothing good can be gained without
effort. It is said that Lourrszo Dow tiled
to announce at the close of his services,
that one year from that day ,and hour he
would preach at the same place again ;
T s
and when the appointed time came am
he was always greeted • With . large au l
encee. But it is doubtful whether it •w
not necessary for the brethren to , bestir
themselved in advance and arouse the peo-
pie, refreshing their memory as to the
time and importance of the occision. 80
Mr. - Gusto; and officers of the Mt. Phsgali
association, nesfyesi let us see the hand-
bills and notices in the - papers. Get up
something novel and attractive; send an
invitation to the President s and both can
didates who at that time will be willing
to make any and every, sacrifice of domes- 't
tic ease to save' their ' suffering country' s
from the vortex of ruin to which it is ex-, p 7.
'posed every quadrennial by occupying the
White Bouse,—and then withCiut waiting •
for their acCeptince, announce that then
and there these political luminaries will
exhibit themselves to the admiring gaze A.
of their fellow citizens (if they come of
course), and, then we will show that we
are not unappreciative or ungrateful
that the great Architect of the universe
has placed in our midst one of Nature's . 1 1 ,
grand observatories from which we may
gaze with rapture upon the.broad expanse P.
• of His domain,' with. its_soul-elevating in
fluences, as we get a glimpse of the grand-,
eur and beauty of creation and contem
plate the majesty and goodness of the
Crepter.
Vat Thursday night Rev. S. F. MA-
TeE7s was followed home from prayer
meeting by tome fifty or more persons
who unceremoniously took possession , of ,
the parsonage, and . without the slightest
provocation proceeded to administer to the
Reverend gentleman and his estimable
lady a most , beautiful pounding: 'But
they showed such Christian forbearance
under the affliction, , that the contending
eleneents . soon became reconciled to each
other, and two most agreeable hours were
spent together, after which, he did not
exactly turn the other cheek also, but in
a neat and feeling address thanked them
so kindly that all felt at liberty to repeat
the offense . whenever they might feel suf
ficiently malicious to do so. '
I am sorry to lay that Captain JOHN
SALISBURY, one of our most esteemed cit
izens, is very sick, Little hope is enter
tained of his recove4.

In seeding down land in this sea
tloa it is ;he common practice to do
itin. connection with a grain crop.
jig some other . parts ,of the. country
the grain is omited, and is done with
beriefit,4i the forage crop In a double
sense; the catch and growth will be
better, and' there will l be a:crely the
'saibeidyear, a crop of grais or clover
instead of the grain:- lAs the forage
crop is: the principal object, Wended
to be continuedfor ..... j years if not per
manently, the impo of getting
it well established:is' onceseen. ‘
To miss a catch is to lose the seed
arid the
_labor of putting it fu, be
sides_ disarranging rotation. If only 1
a portion of the-seed takes, mking
a thin set, it is worse still, as u sially
it is made to do, trusting to luck of
maiure in the future. Without the
manure, which is generally not ap
iiiied, there is sure to , be a
,light
growth;' not much more than pay
ing for the harvesting, being a loss
therefore* in the use of
,the .land,
whereas had there been a total fail
: are of the seeding, something might
have . leen done with a grain crop
following, instead 'of this lois with a
partial crop. Bat in either - caae it
is bad, generally because the land-is
seeded when run down, and hence
not in a condition' 'to receive so im=
portant a crop, which should have at
least a good start 'to get it establish
ed. This is absolutely a necessity.
Not only is the , land rundown, but
the drain must i l be continued by the
grain crop 'which directlY takes the
food that; ought to be left for the
grass. As it is, there is too little
left for either, each seeking to get
what it can, the grain always getting
the upper hand, the young grass so
small and thin that it is with difficulty .
seen, and a drew& Would suppress it
entirely.
The remedy is to give the seeding
all the benefit of .the ground.'But
it will be said, this exposes it to
the sun, whereas the , grain would:
have been a protection. This, I find
is what generally prevents a change
from the old system. It is an error,
of course, as has been' abundantiv
proved. The past summer one !Of
my neighbors was. induced,.upon my
advice; to test, the matter, my ad-
Vice being fortified by °practice. He
had two dooryards to seed down ;
one he seeded without the grain,
the other with barley. The barley
was a heavy yield, withsome weeds
in it, and I smothered the seeding,
the ground being bare this spring,
except a few weeds. Even where
the ground is rich, seeding • will suf
fer if associated _with 'grain, the
great growth of the grain having a
tendancY to smother the grass. In
all cases it will retard it, and should
the grain' lodge, .it will be pretty
sure to ha it. Thus we frequently
see fields with an uneven catch, the
lodged places being bare of grass.
Even if the rest is good,' thisis not,
desirable. Oitto,i . On strong ground,
are, pretty sure to be hard upon seed
ing ; if sown thick, failure often re
sults. Barley, which has a heavy
growth, is less harmful ; so is wheat.
The grain, therefore, instead of be
. ing a protection, as held, •is a dam
age—an obstructiOn.
Give the grass the full benefit. It
will not only endure the sun, but it re
quires it. It wants the wermth, es
pecially in the start;%hnd with suffi
cient moisture will push .on at once
soon covering the ground and shad-.
ing it, becodiing thus self-protective.
Particularly Ls it an adventage if put :
out early, so, as to get the winter
moisture. It can be put out earlier ,
than a grain crop, as it endures the
early severe weather better, and it
then wants all the- sun it can get.
One difficulty heretofore has been,
and is yet to some extent, that the
seed has not been covered. To cover
is to fortify it against drouth should
it occur, as it som tithes does even
quite early. The s dshould be well
brushed in, or the land at lease.roll
ed. Biit the best way is to use a
light, fine-toothed harrow, or; what
suits the purpose exactly. the smooth
ing harrow. This covers the seed
evenly and lightly. In , such 'a case,
with the. land' well drained and the
soil good and mellbw, there is no
such thing as failure if the seed is
fresh and sound. ( , ,
Grass seed may be put in either' in
the tall or earlylin the spring ; clover
only in the spring, and' also early.
If put out in the spring, the land
should'be got ready in the fall; plow
ed and harrowed so as to receive'the
seed eirly ; either sown on the late
snows, so as to get covered by the
freezing and thawing of the ground,
that follows (which I have always
found...a ; good plan), or it may be de
ferred till the ground is dry enough
to use the harrow for covering the
seed. With fall plowing there is
also A good chance to give the plow
ed ground a coat of manure, which
most land to be seeded down re
'quires, and harrow well in the spring
when the soil will be found lo be in
the finest condition—a good catch
and a good subsequent growth being
sure to follow. , Remember that
grass - will bear heavy manuring,
and pay well for the investment,
always pushing the ~growth so that
two good crops, instead of usually
one as now, may ke realized after
the 'year of seeding, which furnishes
one crop and a good set of aftermath
for protection. If this plan is adopt
ed, there will be little complaint of
poor seeding and runout' niehdows.
The latter is avoided by topdressing
as required ; and should the land lie

How to
From.the Setentlfl
A pure, sweet cider is only obtain
able from clean 4ound fruit, and - the
I/
fruit 'should, therefore be cp.refully
examined and wiped before giinding.
In the prhtis, use hair cloth or gun
ny in the / place , of straw. As the
cider runi from the press let it pass
through a hair sieve into' a large
open 'Case l that will hold as much
juic as can-be expressed in one day.
In ne day, or sometimes less, the
p mace will rise to. the top, and in a
/
s ort time grow very thick. When
little white bubbles break through it;
draw off the liquid through a very
.small spigot placed - . about three
inches from the bottom, so that the
lees may be left behind. The cider
must be drawn off into very clean,
sweet-casks, preferably fresh liquor
.casks, and closely watched. " The
moment, the white bubbles, befOre
mentioned, are perceived rising at
the bunghole, rack it again. It is
usually necessary to repeat this three
times.t Then fill up the cask with
cider in every respect like that origi.
nally contained in --it, add a tumbler
of warm sweet oil, and ,bung up
tight. For very Ana. eider - it is cus
tomary to add at this stage of the
process about half a pound of gin
co.se (arch ingar,) - or a smaller por
tion of whitt , sugar. The cask should
then be allowed _to remain in a cool
place Until the cider has acquired
the desired flavor. Pi the meantime
clean barrels'for its reception should
be, prepared, as follows: Some clean
strips of rags ..are dipped in melted
sulphur; lighted and burned in the
bunghole, and the bung laid loosely
on the end of the-rag so as to retain
the sulphur vapor within the barrel.
Then tie up half a pound of mustard
seed in a coarse muslin bag, and s .put
it in.the barrel, fill 'the barrel with
cider, add about a quatter of a pound
of isinglass or fine gelatine dissolved
in hot water. .
This is the old-fashidhed way, and
will keep cider in the same condition
as when it went,lntO _the ,barrel, if
kept in,a_coOl.placo, for a year.
Professional cider makers aije now
using calciumcsulphite (sulphite of
lime), instead of mustard and sul
phur. vapor. It.is much more conven
ient and effectual. ' To use it, it is
siinplY requisite to 'add •one-eight tci
one-quarter _of an ounce of - the sul
phite to each gallon of cider in the
cask; first .mixing the . pOwder' in
aboq, a quart of the elder, then pour
ing ik back into tlie Cask and givigg
the latter a thorough shaking or roll
ing. After standing bunged several
days to, allow the sulphite to exert
its-full-action it may be bottled Off.
The sulphite of-lime (which should
not be mistaken for the.sul i phatd of
lime) is a commercial article, costing
about , ineents a pound by the barrel..
It will preserve the sweetness ? of the
cider perfectly, but . unless care is
taken : not to add -too much of it, i;
will impart a slight . salphurous taste
to•the cider. The `bottles and corks
used should be perfectly clean, and
the corks wired down.-
A little ciutiamon, wintergreen or
sassafras, etc., is often - added to
sweet cider in the bottle, together
with a drachm or so of bicarbonate
of soda at the moment of driving
'the stopper. This helps to neutralize
free acids, and renders• the liquid
effervescent when unstoppered; but
if used in excess it may prejudicially
affect the taste:
