FAItM AND HOUSEHOLD ITEMS Wn Invito" communlcatlnnii frntn all pmona whoain InlcreHti'd 111 matter propBrly bi.loliKiUK to tlvld de imrtiui(. HoMinjf back the Crops. The Philadelphia Ledger says that it is understood that a portion of wuBtcrn wheat growers are holding back their crop for lilghor prices, and some think thin fact is one cause for the present depression in busi ness. Tliatthe policy is ft bad ono, as tlie rule, no careful observer can quostion. When waste mid interest on the capital re quired to carry a crop is considered, it is not difficult to see that chances or protit from the hold-back policy are fow and far between. The interest on his capital is of as much importance to thu farmer as to the banker. The steadily declining price of wheat at London and Liverpool, together with the small shipments from Philadelphia, re evidences that this oidy foreign market is slipping away from us aud being suppli ed from other soroes not unlikely by the same nations which wore last year its com potitors in the bnylog from us. We see it published that there are iu storo at New York this time some 1,800,000 bushels of wheat, against only 100,000 bushols one year ago, and if shipments do not soon in crease there is a probability that by the close of navigation that city will bold the extraordinary stock of over 8,000,000 bush els, against the average of less than 1,500, 000 bushels. This state of affairs does not indicate any permanent Improvement in the price of wheat for the remainder of this year, but rather tends toward even lower prices, for such as will find its way to mar ket at any price! this, in turn, will only tighten the grip of the "holding-ou class." So that depression and prostration of all the interests depending on and connected with the wheat-growing soctioii may as well bo accepted as the rule for another twolve month, Had this crop of wheat boon properly marketed until Great Britain would take no more, it would have infused new life into all the industries aud trados of the country aud have contributed to wards the liquidation of the foreign debt. As it is,except for our own needs, the whole crop might as well havo been grasshoppered so far as it is of any benefit to the country. It is the locking up of bo much capital, which should bo freoly circulating, impart ing life and vigor through all the veins of commerce. . , '. , , . .. ' A Cost of Fences. In Georgia tliq ' people are to be tailed upon this fall to decide upon the fence question.'-' And General W. M. Brown, a ioe President of the State Agricultural 8ocioty, has written a long letter upon the subject in compliance with the request of several leading farmers of Clark ' county, where bo resides, in which the following startling taots are presented to the con sideration of the public. He says tbat in tbat eouuty there are fifty thousand miles of fence, making, at eight feet to the pan nel, thirty-three million panels, costing at 40 cents per panel, $18,300,000, and as fences have' to bo renewed every seven years, involving an annual outlay of f 1,885, 714, ahd all this to keep out of the crops, few cattle, sheep and hogs, worth at the 4jutslde'$200,0fl0. The fences of this coun try art valued at nearly $3,000,000,000. In Illinois alone f 3,000,000 will hardly cov er the expense In Nebraska a fencing law adapted to the needs of the country has been adopted. ' The law throws upon every owner of live stock the onus of keeping his stock from straying into his neighbor's crops. The owner need not build fences about his crops ' beeause the law "fences out" stock.. This is done at present by herding1. ' , '',"' ' j , "" 1 ' ' Low vs. lllgkFruit Trees. An Illinois fruit grower, who has JJ.f-WI apple, and from - 4,000 to 6,000 pear trues, ; Unds that " those with low heads, of the Mtme varieties, show at least two-thirds more fruit, as large or larger, and as high oolored as those with high tops. To tost the matter he cut off in certain rows all the limbs from four to six feet from the ground", and in other be encouraged the limbs to start elofco to the surface, and in the latter case neither thinned nor pruned, except occasionally to lop away a too lusty shoot in order to preserve a symmetrical appearance or evenly balanced bead, and the above is the result Practical Farmtr.' j ' Hard Honp for Family Use. . Take two pounds of clear grease to one pound of rosin ; make this into a soft soap, and, while it is boiling, to every ten gallons of soap add one gallon of salt. 15oil one hour after adding the salt. When it is done boiling, the oap will be at the top aud the lye ut the bottom, rlkira off the soap ; keep it and gently stir it lu a leaky vessel, so that the lye w ill all run out the same as butter-milk does out of butter; then work the soap as butter , Is worked, uulil it is as thick as basty-puddlng j then act it away to cool. Turpentine or tar will answer instead of rosin, but are not so good. Any refuse salt is good enough, or old pickle. ST. J.
