soon after the news first arrived by
friends of passengers oa board t!ie

Procuration of Corn lJril.
Corn is the king of American
crops, and claims royal precedence ia
the work ot preparation. For no
crop1 is preparation more needful, ia
none does thorough preparaiion pay
better. Rut how to prepare ? What
is thorough?
Tbc prime object aimed at ia all
the work of preparation is the pul
verization of the si! the disinte
gration of its particles. The further
tbifl process is carried the better will
be the seed-bed. The means used to
accomplish this object aro various,
but chief and moot important of all
is plowing. Deep, thorough and re
peated plowing is, therefore, the one
gr?at law of nil preparation of the
soil, and the few cases that furnish
exceptions do but confirm the rule.
Rut plowing is by no means the
simole and easy process wbicn it
seems to many. When to plow and
bow to plow are often duucult ques
tions to settle, and upon their right
cr wrong settlement the condition of
a soil for one or more seasons may of
ten depend. A soil plowed whea too
wet will often be outol condition fur
all the year following, while a furrow
run the wrong way or set too shallow
may open the way for the washing of
a large portion of the soi'. It may
not be out of place, therefore, to say
a word or two a3 to the breaking up
of corn gTonnd.
It is desirable to get as deep and
friable a seed-bed as the character of
tbo soil will admit of. In any but
land of sandy subsoil, therefore, two
plows should Lo used in braking up.
First, a turning plow running as deep
as the surface soil or capacity of the
team will admit. Immediately in
the furrow of this turning plow
should follow a subsoil plow, kept
down to the beam. The work of
this plow is to lift aud loosen but not
to turn over the subsoil. The pur
pose aimed at are two-fold and oppo
site. Wbea the surface soil is over
charged with water a loose subsoil
opens the way fur the escape cf it;
and when the surface soil is dried
by a drouth a loose subsoil allows
the moisture to pass up for capillarity
and respond to the demand of the
thirsty soil above.
I5y these means the soil' not only
admits but intites and compels the
entrance of the air and water. In
other words, the soil i3 enabled to
breathe and imbibe air and water
the two all-powerful agents in soil
digestion. Without a certain amount
of free air and water all the fertilizing
elements known to the soil would be
utterly useless for plant growth. Rut
whenever and wherever the soil is
rightly prepared these great natural
agents will surely enter and do their
work willingly and well. Rut in or
der that they may do their work the
farmer must do bis, and bis work is
to brake up, crush, grind, divide, pul
verize and subdivide the soil. Flow
and cross-plow, harrow and roll, and
repeat each operation until the work
ia thoroughly done. This is to pre
pare for the corn crop as far as the
natural soil goes.

! impossible to proceed any further.
The snow was aJready four or five
j feet deep, and was accumulating in
great drifts. Half a dczea times
I their horses fell into deep raviues
from which they were extricated
with difficulty, and they were at last
compelled to turn mournfully back
for their own preservation. The re

were of no avail, but all through the
wiuter Lis untimely end was dis
cussed by bis' friends around their

tbo snow wa.s pretty well off the
ground a party. of men thought it
their duty to go over into the desert
ed valley and burv his body, lie
was a boon companion, liked by 'ev
erybody, and had a Lost o' friends.
They crossed the mountain and co,mo
in sight of tbc spot where the disas

in and were nliirbViDpr from their
horses wheu a voice wutna was
heard joyfully to exclaim: "Well,
have you fellows got here at last?
and Robinson came liropiag out upon
a pair of crutches. The amazement
of the party may bo immagincd.
Xotic;ng their surprise, be said:
'You all thought I was dead, did
you. I am not, but am as .w e.l as
ever I was ia my life, except this
leg.' And so it proved. He was
aware that the storm which set ia
upon Knox's departure would pre
vent bis return, and at once set to
work to make the best of the situa
tiou. Ho kept bis wound dressed
with snow, and whea his ready pro
visions were exhausted draggad him
self to the carcass of the bear at the
door of the cabin and cut off a slice
with bis butcher knife. Raw bear-
meat and water from a mountain
stream wbicb ran near by was all tbe

This meagre diet, no doubt, kopt his
foot from mortifying. The fever sub
sided, the inflammation went down,
and it soon began to heal. With a
wiro which he tore off aa old broom
ne probed tnc wound and drew out
several pieces of bone. He then
made a pair of crutches and was able
to get around without difficulty, lie
considered the snow-storm a lucky
thing, as his leg would have been
amputated had the physician arrived.
Upon Lis return to Lake Valley he
was welcomed as one come from the
dead, aod the affair is the great
theme of conversation

The Bird unci tbe Bamboo.
Nearly one thousand years ago a
little female bird flew into the Mika
do'a garden, holding in her bill a
very small seed, which sho tried to
bury in tho ground. The Mikado
wished to know what kind of seed it
was, so he ordered a girl to get it
from tbe ground, but every lime she
approached rt tbe bird suddenly flew
down and took the feed ia ber bill
and carried it awav. As soon, bow-
ever as tbc girl disappeared, the bird
returned and again buried tbc seed.
The Mikado gave very strict orders
that no one should touch it.
Just ouo month after the day on

coming from the west.
Uy tbe Mikado's order the new

The Scrantoa, Ytx.,-R-r:uUi(an of
Wednesday says:
'George Shoemaker, engineer cf a
coal train of some, fifteen cars, oa tbe
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
Railroad, had an exciting experience
a lew evenings ago ia tbe vicinity 0!
Forks Station, oa the Focono Moua-
tams. At that point there is a heavy
krade toward the Delaware Water
Gap, and whea witbia two miles of
Folks Station, while tbc train was
going at the rate of tea raile3 au
hour, . the coupling broke, cutting
some tea cars loose, and letting the
engine shoo; rapidly ahead with five
cars, wbich remained attached. Two
brakotr.cn cn the severed cars, see
ing tbey were left behind to the care
of a swift momentum', became fright
ened and leaped from their positions.
As soon as they jumped off the
brakes were relaxed, giving the cars
full scope and increasing their veloc
ity. Mr. Shoemaker, who was some
distance ahead, seeing tbein approach
fcared-tho ooaMKjuetices of a collis
ion, and increased his spsed to avert
tbe catastrophe of clashing with tbo
runaway cars. Accordingly he main
tained a swift course, passing Forks
Stat'on with a shriek, and startling
the officials at that place, who did
not know what was tho matter. A
minute later tho telegraph operator
dispatched to Scranton thai train
No. 2G had passed the station at the
rate of sixty miles an hour, ne had
scarcely sent tbc message before the
runaway cars came crashing through
the cut, and thundered through the
station like a lightning flash, impell
ed by the power of gravity. The
people ia tbe vicinity of Forks Sta
tion were alarmed by this time.
Tbey thought all tho coal cars in
Scranton were out for a holiday and
dash'ng madly in the direction of the
Water Gap. The operator sent a
second and more exciting message
than the first to lbe Scranton office,
whilo the chase was being continued.
After a five miles' rnn, Conductor
Shoemaker so slackened speed grad
ually as to render the shock of con
tact with the pursuing train harmless,
and in this way brought up with no
injury save a good shaking and a
fair share of excitement." .

The cultivation of buckwheat seems
to be on an increase among the far
mers or the United States. This is
good economy,. for buckwheat will
grow well on ragged or hilly land,
where scarcely anything else will
grow. Oa steep Bide hills, on thin
soil, on stony gronnd, on land full of
noxious weeds,, it will do well and
have good effect in eradicating weeds
and ameliorating the soil. It is next
to clover the best grain crop to plow
under as a manure, and often rives
a good crup of wheat. Buckwheat
is raised throughout Europe and
Asia, and has been known for centu
ries. It should form a crop on every
farm, either for domestic consump
tion or market, or both. It is valu
able for family use, for chicken feed
and pig feed wheu mixed with other
grain and scalded, with hot water.
The crop shouldbe sown, in this lat
itude, tbe Iasfof June or tho first of
July. Tbe reason for late sewing is
to avoid the neat of tho sun and
the great ri.-di of tbe early frosts be
fore it is fully ripe, at which time it
is easily injured.
Delivering Wrila lo MheriOV
Many persons think that tbe deliv
ery, in tb absence of the Sheriff,, ol
a writ to bis deputy, or, in case no
deputy could be found, leaving it at
bis known place of business, would
constitute a legal delivery. Such,
however does .cot appear to be the
case, as the following will more duly
explaiu : Recently the Supreme
Court of this State decided a point
of an appeal from tbe common pleas,
which is important, as it d cides
what constitutes the delivery of a
writ to Sheriff. A writ or fieri facias
was put in the hands of a therilf.
On tbe return day tbe execution was
stayed and a new writ issued. This
writ was put in a pigeon bole in tbe
protbonetary's oflice, wherein writs
and other papeis of tbe sheriff were
usually put. The same day a writ
which represented another judgment
was delivered to the Sheriff. Coun
sel held that putting the writ in the
pigeon hole was a legal delivery, and
the case was so decided. Tbe op
posing counsel carried the case to
tio Supreme Court, where the deci
sion of tbc court below was reversed;
or, in other words, tbe putting of a
writ in a "pigeon hole" is not a leiral
delivery to tbe sheriff.
