Wheat A "ter Corn.
A corre*pondent of the German
town Telegraph says:—Last fall I
putin a field of sixteen acres of
wheat; in three of it I had potatoes,
three with corn and the balance with
oats. I had oftiuie« heard it said
that a crop of wheat joulcl be grown
after corn, but that grass would not
take so well as after oats stubble had
been plowed down and wheat sown.
I had but a moderate coat of manure
to put on ; a part of the oats stubble
I put on but half a oat of barri-yard
manure and plowed it in ; but just
before drilling in the wheat 1 sowed
three bushels of salt to the acre nnd
harrowed it in. The corn I hauled
off, spread the manure on, und plow
ed corn stabs and manure in togeth
er. This part had but one plow ing.
The potafb ground I plowed - twice ;
the potatoes gathered pay well for
the last plowing. This part I sowed
broadcast, not being able to drill it
on account of the fall grans and isoots
that lay over it. For manure for
this 1 liad to wait until it was made,
in the fall.and early part of the win
ter, when I spread it over the top.—
Timothy seed was sown over the
whole at the rate off ur quarts to
the acre, at the time the wheat was
pat in. In the hitler part of March
I sowed four quarts of clover seed to
the acre.
Now for the result. I harvested
this summer the finest crop of wheat
I ever did ; most of it stood up, was
well grown, and reinarkaVly well fill
ed, and judging from wha' I have
already threshed out will average
overtwentv bush Is to the acre, prob
ably twenty-five. I could see but
little difference in the wheat the field
over ; it was all good.
The grass at harvest and up to
this time is best where the potatoes
and corn grew; and although it is
well set all over,, it is not so forward
where the oats was grown.
So you see, Mr. Editor, the old
saying that grass will not tal'e alter
corn, has failed in this instance. In
regard to salt as a manure for wheat,
it is a new thing to ine, but
I intend to use it to a considerable
extent, as in the above instance tree
bushels of it wns equal to half a coat
of manure, which at the lowest cal
culation Was worth eight dollars.
1 have 110 doubt that many I my
brother farmers will say that the
conclusion I have come to is an oSi
travagant one; but 1 would very
much like some at lea t of tlieut to
test it, as 1 have done, and report
the result in another year thro' the
columns of the Telegraph. This is
the best way to arrive at facts—and
facts, not theories, are what the far
mer wants.
Cure lor Shying.
If alad v's horse bo addicted to
shying; 1 -Will give her a sure and
simple cure for the same, one w! ich
J have never known to fail. Let us,
for instance, suppose the existence
of a heap of stones on the near side
of the road. The horse sees an in
distinct gray object, and prepares to
shy at it. The uioueht he shows
such symptoms let his fair rid' r turn
both her eyes on exactly the opposite
side of the road, and look steadily
away from the offending heap, and,
X engage that the horse will walk
quietly by. For many years 1 have
ridden horses of all tempers and di;-.
positions, some of them much given
to shying, and have never yet found
this simple remedy to fail in its ef
fect. Let those who scoff at me try
it. The reason is this:—The human
9yc doubtless, a great influence
on all animals, and there is a Strong
and secret sympathy between the
horse and its rider. The horse sees
an iudistinct object, and looks doubt
fully at it; his rider becomes alarm
ed, imagining that the animal is go
ing to commit some eccentricity ; the
fear is communicated to the animal,
and he starts in terror from the ob
ject which has frightened him; where
as, if he finds that his rider sits un
moved and unconcernedly, he regains
his confidence, and goes on"in the
even tenor of his v. ay." 1 believe
tliHt one-half of our horses are ruin
ed for life by being "hit over the
head" by groom 3, to cure them of
shying.— Home Taming.

VARIETIES OF BAD TK.MPKR.— Had
temper is oltener the remit of unhappy
circumstances than of an unhappy or
gan. zition. It frequently, however, has
a physical cause, and a peevish child oi
ten needs dieting more than correcting.
A child ol active temperament, sensitive
Id ling, and eager purpose, is more like
ly to meet with constant jars and rubs
than a dull, passive child; and, if he is
ol an open nature, his inward irritation
is shown in bursts of passion. 11 you
repress these ebullition by scolding and
punishment, you only iucrea-e the evil
by changing passion into sulkiness. A
cheerful, good-tempered tone of your
0 n, a sympathy with his trouble has
arisen from no ill-conduct oil his part,
are the best ant'dotes- Never fear spoil
ing children by making them too happy,
lluppiyets is the atmosphere in which
all good affections grow.
AN ILLUSTRATION.— Dr. Adam Clark
was pica hingtoa large congregation in
Ireland, und alter dwelling in glowing
terms upou the irectiess of the Gospel,
and telliiig them that the water of hlu
could be had 'witdout money and with
out price," at the conclusion of the ser
mon, a person announced that a collec
tion would be made to support the Gos
-1 el in loreign parts. This announcement
disconcerted the speaker, who afterwards
icLted the circumstance to the lady ut
the house where he was staying. "Vet)
true, Doctor," replied the hostess; "the
water of life is free, 'without money,aud
without price,' but wo must pay tor the
pitchers to carry it in."
A STORY WITH A MORAL.—A joung
man paying special nttcntiou to a youug
lady, mot with the following incident
during one of his visits :
Being invited in the parlor to await
tha lady's appearance, lie entertained
himself as bett he might ior some time,
and was becoming very weary, when a
little .girl about five yeus old slipped in
and began to converse with him.
<l i can always tell," said she, ''wi>en
you are coming to our house."
"lou can he replied, "and how do
you tell it?-■*
"V by, when y<>u are going to be here
sister begins to sing and get good, she
gives iiie cake and pie, aud nnything I
want, she sings so sweetly when you are
here, aud when 1 speak to her she smiles
so pleasantly. 1 wish you would stay
here all the while, then I would have a
good time, liqt when you go off, sisier
s not good. She gets mad, and if 1
ask her for anything, she slaps and baugs
Uie about."
'1 his was a poser for the young mi
j "'fools and children tell the truth,"
| quoted he, aud taking his hat, 113 left
| and returned no aiore.
Moral—Parents wishing their ill-na
tured daughters married, should keep'
their small children out of the parlor
when strangers are there.

Tha* we examined the Jail of saul County, In the Bor

that it is Impo .-dblc to remodel tho Jail, so a j t i effect
any pfimaucnt <r inij ort;-.t:t change. The Jail is, be
sides in our opinion, too sm ill and unhealthy, being
damp and murky. We, in nliort, condemn the Jail as
w. r.se than usele-s, by being positively uutltted asaliab
it ttlon for any hum .n being 'tis inhuman to put and

It is. in our judgment, au - utinjie on deqt ney and hu
inanity, and a to the Connly We thetidore
earnestly advise and recommend the demolition < I the
old Jail and the immediate erection of a new otic. We
further present 111 it the Jail and its surroundings are
well, ii ally, and com! Ttably kept at pie-.-ni by the
