Four plats cf land were selected in

the wheat was sown Sept lCih. On
tbe ninth of Jolj it was cut, and tbe
Tield was:

No. 4. No fertiliser: 24 bushels jht

Here we Cud, as in other similar
carr-a, some singular results. Tbe
much advertised Stockbridge wheat
fertilizer, which is represented to
give an increase of 20 to 25 bushels,
at to expense of about f 15 per acre,
in this case produced onlv two bush
els more wheat per acre than the
land on which ao mannre was put.
On each of the above plata $15 worth
of fertiliser was applied, except on
No. 4, being an expenditure of $45
for an increase of tweotj-two bu.h-
cls.
The HtockLridze wheat formula
consists in $15 worth of:
200 poonds of sulph. ammonia; 43
pounds of muriate potash; 120 pounds
vi superphosphate.
And tbe increase in wheat from its
use cost $7 50 per bushel 3 The super
jtboFphates did better, giving an in
crease of 20 bushels for an expendi
ture of $30; but that is ruinous far
ming when tbe labor of production is
considered.
On tho same farm an experiment
was made in drilling seed, and in
sowing broad cast, two bushels in
each case, and the drilled acre pro
duced 24, and tbe brand-cast acre
bushels.

ize bow little danger can come from
tbe use of I'm is green, we have made
tLe following calculation: One pound
cf Paris green contains about 4,375
grains of white arsenic. An acre
contains 43.5G0 square feet. Tbe
application of one pound of Paris
green to kill the potato beetle and
si ups furnishes therefore but about
I -lth grain of aresnic to each square
foot This amount might be put on
tbe potatoes themselves, and a man

er, is largely diminished in practice
by its action on tbe insects, and by
neutralization in tbe soil Conse
quently there can be no danger what
soever in tbe agricultural use oi i' ar
ts green, as far as absorption is con

of tbe crop.
ROTATION OF CROPS.
When a good dressing of stable
manure is applied to land annually
there is no necessity of a rotation of
crops. Corn, for instance, can be
grown on tbe same land a hundred
years, if well manured, and yield good
Tops ; so of most, if not all crops.
Market gardeners plant the same
crops on laud for many years, with
no regular rotation, which shows
that land only requires plenty of ma
nure to grow crops abundantly for a
long period. A farmer says: "My
neighbor has a Geld of about tour
acres that has been planted to pota
toes twenty three consecutire years,
and it hat never failed bat once to
yield one bandred and fifty bushels to
tbe acre. The soil is a light loam or
rand. Each year from ten to fifteen
load, of stable manure bare been scat
tered over the field, and no otter for
tilisersfeafo been used; but it always
brings a good crop. Kow, if rotation
s imperative, why does this particular
field produce so fair a crop such are-i
markable length of time?" Rotation of
crops is necessary generally, because
iarmers have not enough mannre to
mU on their lands to produce tLe
t-atue crops year after year.

Farmers of late years are sing

pave weU to put tbe land in a good.
nootb condition for grass seed of
every kind. Rolling the land after
the seed is harrowed, or brushed in,
will tend to make it vegetate sooner,
especially in a drouth.
HARVESTING UEAMA. .
Tbe following is a good war to
Larvest bes-iK "When tbe larger
part of tbo pods have turned brown
tbe vines should be pulled. Tbis
work sbou'.d be done in pleasant weath
er never when it is rainy or when
tbere is a prospect of aa immediate
storm. This is very essential, as
upon the suceeisful curing of tbe crop
its quality very largely depends, and
it cannot be well cured in bad weath
er. Five or six rows may be pulled
and thrown into a windrow, taking
care not to pile tbe vine too thickly,
lithe weather is pleasant they may
lie in tbis way a day or two, then
be tnrned ever and tie another day.
Then if they appear to be quite dry
tbey may be got into the barn and
threshed, but if tbe weather is not
favorable, and tbe vines are not dry
enough to take in, they mast be etack-:
ed in the field. The best way of
stacking which I have tried is to set
two stakes about two and a half feet
apart and between these lay the
beans, tops outward. A block of
wood, a large atone, or something
else should be iaid on tbe ground in
order to keep the vines from contact
with the earth. Tbe stakes should
be Eve or six feet long, and at a
height of three feet from the ground
t-bould be fasjened together with a
string or wire to prevent their spread
ing. When tbey are nearly dry the
stakes should be spread out to tbe
sun some morning, and in the after
noon, if tbey get well dried, tbe beans
should be taken Into tbe barn. For
threshing I nae wood flails. . If prop
er care it exercised aot many of the
beans will be injured, but tbey should
not bt ponnded too much.. The clean

STACKING COBH FOUPER.
A writer in the Practical Farmer
says: I have practised stacking fod
der for tbe last twenty years never
had any spoil, and after trying vari
ous ways think It decidedly prefera
ble to ail other modes, because first,
none but tha but, tbe worthless por
tion, are exposed to the bleaching
rains of winter, and second, because
a larger quantity can be placed close
by the feeding place than by any
other way. I put, usually, fifty
shocks of one hundred bills each in
a stack. A few sticks are placed on
the ground to raise tbe centre of the
stack. Tbe centre must be kept up
sufficiently to sbad the rain from tbe
butts throughout tba stack. The
stack must be made of 6uch diame
ter only as to allow the tops of bun
dles to Jap and tLus keep up tLe
centre, a single row of bundles only
forming the circle. Tbe finishing oi
the stack should be in form similar to
an ordinary 100 hill shock, and be
well tied with a band. I fed ouly
four head of cattle from such a
slack, and never bad any damage
bv rain; only one course appears to
iret danm. and tbe cattle prefer it in
that condition. If a snow storm oc
cur?, or a sleet storm, or very heavy
rain, I immediately remove one en
tire course, and set on nd al not fed.

er; for these artists are of all grades
and abilities. It may seem to bo a
terrible thing that a singer should
aim at tbe grand opera and succeed
in bitting nothing higher than the
sUge jn the rariety theatre: but as
practical person 1 should say mat
it certainly would be better for a
voice worker to do that than to re
main a needle- woman or a shop-girl
for tbe simple reason that a popu
lar singer in a variety theatre receives
an income wortb tnat o a dozen nee
dlerwomen or shop-girls. It may
surprise my readers to learn that such
a singer receives scrcnty-five or a
hundred dollars a week; but it is true.
Those who are recognised first-class
stars of the sphere, are even paid
two hundred dollars and upwards;
but these are men and women of spe
cial talent for comedy as well as vo
calism. The most ordinary singers
of this class mere fair-faced girls
with small voices and smaller cult
ure get twenty or thirty dollars a
week. How many needlu-women or

that it was impossible for thoso any

passing through the smoke and flame
from burning varnish and paint, only
a few got outside where tbey could

blocked the doors of tbe Brooklyn

TUB TUAMl' Ql'Kr-TION.
We Lave got to face auoibcr irrup
tion of tramps very soon. Tbe cold
season has commenced in tbe north
east, and tlio advance guard of tbe
army Las already shown itscji. Tbe
sturdy thieves are getting wore and
more common in tbe parks, and back
areas that are accessible, and ball
ways that : are carelessly left open,
are being already robbed. There is
an alerting increase cf sturdy, un
shaven, unshorn, qnkempt men stand
ing on tbe streets, lookiog uitj; vil
lainous eves into houses, to see wheth
er robbery or beggary will do best,
and tLe 'police ere keccaiiog more
and more busy with vagrant. Those
who got far west during the summer,
are not here yet, but when tbey come
we shall have our bands full.
I a.'-ked one of them which he pre
ferred, tbe city or the country. With
charming frankness be answered, the
country, of course, when the weather
is warm enough to admit of sleeping
in tbe open air, or in barns.
"You see," said tbe vagabond, "In
the city tLe Cops are always a
watcbia' of us, and you ctn't take
Dolhia' without takin; a blasted risk.
But in tLe country, bless you, ther'
aiu't uothia' to stand ia tbe way. '
Two of U3 watches till the men are
away in toe fields, , and we Know
ther' ain't nobody ia tbe bouse' but
women. Then we goes up and asks
for sutbin to eat, which we don't
really want, for we kin kill and
roast as many chickens as we want
Bat while the Tomen are gettin' us
sut'bis' io eat, we sights about, and if
ther' is any ioosa property latin'
around, we gobbles it. i te wo
men make any fuse we show a pistol,
and tlat enj it. We don't steal
enough to make it worth their while
to toiler us very far, and besides tbey
are afraid, for we bare a doyen or
two in a neighborhood."
"Do the women never make resis
tance ?"
"Certainly they do. Erery now
and then we strike one who has a re
volver and a b'g dog, and they make
it warm for us. .. I have a bole in my
left leg that a woman in Steuben
county, New York, put there. And
my pardaer was nearly finished by a
bull-dog, and then tbe men came up,
and they beat us nearly to death.
But ther' ain't no biznis that you
don't bare to take chances in."
"If you can get all tbat you want
to eat without inirading bouses, what
do vou -want to take tbese chances
for?"
"Eatiu' ain't all ther' is of life.
Clothes don't bother us much, but
ther' is likker and tobacker. Tbem
you hcv to pay for, in sutbin', for
yon can't walk into a saloon and
bluff 'em out of tbem. No iudeed!
I wish we could. But tbem we
must hare, and then we like to have
jamborees when a lot of us get to
gether, and then we hev to take kecr
of our wimmen, aad ooe woman will
drink more and smoke more than two
men. Tbey git crazy and are very
expensive. No, we hev to hev
suthin besides our eating?"
"If you prefer the country when it
is warm, why don't you go south in
tbe winter ?"
"We tried that, but it won't work.
We kin git along with tbe weather,
but you sec tbe country is ao sparsely
sctu'ed tbat it takes too moth walkin'
to git from bouse to bouse. And
then, tbey do'nt live well enough.
Tbey cook terrible, and I vou'i live
on bog and hominy and all sorts of
grease. I could have done it once,
but my stomach ain't what it used to
be. 1 am gittin' old and have to
b&va things better than I used to.
I fuel it a'l day if I don't have coffee

well, and altogether, it ain't a bad

out, and goes our way, recooperatid,
and good for a great deal of walkin'.
Now down South it ain't that way a

And then 1 don't like niggers, and
you have to da a great deal of stay,

"Don't you Gnd it rather bard to

the citr ?"
- someumea. -ow and men we
git into the Station-house, and ther'
are always empty boxes and warm
coroera. It ain't as pleasant as the
Windsor Hotel, but we are satisfied."
"Why don't too try
while?"
"Work! We work! Why, we
might as weil bs laborin' men to
once! None of that for me. There
is one city in the west which I got
into last fall, where tbey arrested us,
and put us in a stone-yard, breakin'
stone for the streets Toledo. They
got me once and kept me at it. two
weeks. 1 wouldn't go within a hun
dred miles ot tbat city, if I knew it,
tor a fortune. Tbink of workio' ten
hours a day, and feedin' us on bread
and water! Tbey don't know how
to treat people ther'."
The vagabond went away with an
expression of tidness on bis counte
nance. Tbe remembrance of bis
brief stay in Toledo, where the city
is wise enough to make them earn
the bread tbey eat, was too much for
bim. He doubtless brooded over it
all tbe day.
What Toledo does, every town
and city in tbe country abould do.
Tbe moment a beggar appears on the
streets of that city, be is arrested, is
taken to barracks provided for such
cumberers of the earth, and if able to
work is set to breaking stone. When
his lime is up, be ia given a loaf of
bread and a piece of meat, and is dis
missed with tho assurance
tbat if be returns he will be re
tained a still longer period.
None of them return. Every Stte

have legislation empowering magis
trates to commit these pests, at sight
Tbe city will have fifty thousand of
them within its borders this winter,
who will go out as soon as spring
opens, to infest tbe country. Every
one of them is a thief, wherever thiev
ing can be done safely, and murder
is only abstained from because it isn't
safo. Tbe tramp proper came to this
country from England, but it wasn't
long till ice American vagaoona
adopted bis tactics. Tbey have
signs and language of their own, and
where ooe or two are seen, you may
be sure there are more. Tbey work
in gangs, and can be rallied within

Corwia ShMBoa,
The death of Hon. WiLson Shan
non, who waa twice Governor of
Ohio, which was announced tbe oth
er day by tbe telegraph, recalls ah
incident related to a Leader reporter,
only a week ago, while traveling in
Noble county. It was at ti.e hospit
able htjme of Mr. John Loniax, one
o' tbe old and respectable settlers of
the county. The supper bai been
finished, and, while lounging in front
of the rpacious farm residence, remi
niscences of tbe past were called up
by the host.
Tbo speech, said be, which we
beard to-day, brings to mind tbe an
imated canvass of IS 10. Not tbat
General Garfield in the least resem
bles Tom Corwin, or that Mr. Bish
op, as far as I know, is anything like
Wilson Shannon, who waa then tbe
Democratic candidate. But yon
know all political contests are much
alike, and although we hardly ever
have one with so much vim in it as
that of 1810, still tbey recall some
characteristics of that time to our
mind.
I was in Marietta, one day in Sep
tember, 1840, for the purpose of bear
ing Tom Corwin for tbe first time.
He was to come by the coach, and
when it drore up to the old hotel, we
were all in waning to meet him and
demand a spec cb. We wondered at
his reply when we called out;
"A speech from Tom Corwin."
He replied;
"So soon as I put Wilson Shannon
down."
And eqiergicg from the coach wkb
a small, well dressed boy iu his arms,
be set bim down upon the ground
and proceeded with a characteristic
speech.
A woman, also well dressed, aud
apparently much, nettled, batten
ed from the ooaob. and taking tho
boy by tbe band, hastened away.
The other passengers ?eeintd to
understand amon tbem -circs tbut
something very funny had transpired,
and whan the speech was ended 1
ventured to ask one of thoni what
was tbe matter, when the following
story, in substance was related :
Tbe boy whom you su pluced tij
on the ground by Corwia is ihe
youngest sou of bis c mtp-iAmr f .r tbe
office of Governor, W a-tou bbauuou
The name of the boy u bUo Wikou
Shannon. Tbe lady wbo hastened
awey from the coacb when Corw iu
began to speak is Mrs. Wilson Shan
non, neither one recognizing tbe oth
er. Tbe lady was very communica
tive, and immediately told ber name,
Sic. Corwin saw bis opportunity
and irorfletjlately tooj advantage of
it She proceeded to tell ali tba plana
which her husband bad formed for
tbe campaign, and expressed a great
disdain for Tom Corwin, as sbe cili
ed bim, remarking that she bad,
however, always had a considerable
desire to see him. Sne supposed, he
wa3 a great sight "On, 'us!" says
Corwin, "I have seen bim and I do
not think ao." They say he is as
black as a nigger," said tbe woman.
"I gujss not." said the other, "i
tbink be is about my complexion."
Just here tbe stage became full, and
Corwin offered to take Master Wilson
qpon jjis knee, for whj;h tfco ady
was very tliantltjl, and bt'f.aqie more
confining than beforp.
Sbe remarked that tbe would like
to bear this man "wbo U trying to
get tbe Governorship away from bor
hugband" talk a little anyway ; and
was determined to stop over in Mari
etta for a night and listen to bim.
Thus matters ran on until tbe town
was reached, and tbe crowd began to
call for tbe next Governor, Tom Cor
win. Even then the good womao
did not understand, aud it was only
when Corwin replied tbat be would
speas as soon as (je put U "-ou tbtin
non down, tbat sne appreciated tbe
situation and uVpajteq iu a passion
it was luougbt at tbe time ibat
the insight which Mr, Corwin tbns
gained into tbe plans of bis opponent
did much toward turning the scale of
election in bis favor. Cleveland

tbat nearly one hundred armed men
were in the molj tht bqqg tbe three
Goodriche and Sinin;oca tpslcrday
morning. Tbe jailor, J. W, Jones,
says of it;
About one o'clock I was awukened
by aloud knocking at tbe door and
calls of "where is the jailer"? I hur
riedly went down and was confronted
by a body of about fifteen or twenty
men. They pointed pistols and guns
at mo and told me to get tbe kev of
tbe jail and go with tbem. When
we reached the jail they commanded
me to opeu tbe door. 1 bey were
joined by other men on tbo war to
tne jail, and wtiea we got there some
forty or fifty men rushed into tbe jil
and at once took pos-iesMon of ibe
prisoners and tied ropes around
tbeir necks and led them out Sam
and Joe Goodrich said, "We are in
nocent No blood of any man i on
our bands." 1 he mob said in re
sponse, "If you want to pray get at
t."
Sam then said, will you allow me
to send Borne money to my mother?
Ther said, f'Yes." Heibon handed
me about forty dollars. Tbey tben
proceeded down tbe street, taking
tbe four to the bridge, where two
were banged on each side. Tbe fol
lowing is published concerning the
crimes for whbh ibe men were ia
ail :
The murders with which tbe pri
soners were implicated were tbat of
rarrittb, for wbicb bbunk Buffered
death on tba gallows, a peddler from
Jacksonville, in Shelby county, na

member of tbe gang, sacrificed by
his unfeeling father beoause be knew
too mooh about his affairs, aud whose
bones were found whore Dick Shunk

wbo waa first robbed, attempted to
be killed witb a pistol sbot, wbicb on
ly broke his arm, and was tben taken
in a skiff into the Kentucky river,
weighted witb rocks and sunk.
Following tbis was tbe murder of
Eli Downey, a cousin of Shunk, wbo
waa sbot io tb.e head by Jack Sim-
moos, son or the King, and robbed
of $140. Next oame ibe murder of
a man named Gallaban, a fruit tree

ent' Detective John T. Norris, baa
successfully worked up another big
case. While in Tiffin, a short time
ago, arresting a young woman for
barn burning, he waa offered an in?
duccment to ferret out another party,
supposed to be a man who baa been
engaged in burning barns and other
builaings, especially in Seneca coun
ty, for several year. He picked oat
bis man, a roving character named
Sam Flaughker, and decoyed bim to
this city where he ba? been keeping
bim nearly a week. Tbe detective
hobnobbed witb bim on pretence of
wanting to become bis pal. and even
went so far as to go out witb him at
night on thieving raids, all to gain
his confidence, but tbe climax wa9
reached when, by a secret agreement,
F'laugbker was brought into the pres
ence of two well known men of tbis
city, wbo represented that tbey had
a house they wanted burned ' to get
tbe insurance on it Tbis ruse waa
a success. Flaughker freely told how
he bad burned barn after barn and
building after building, until, ia the
last twenty years, be bad destroyed
fjlly twenty buildings of different!
kinds. Having cunningly secured
tbis wholesale evidence against bim,
Norris arrested him yesterday, band
cuffed bim, and took bim to Tiffin.
