fipThe ent Is increasing her erea of
wheat. According to "The Maine
Farmer," one farmer In Somerset coun
ty, Maine, will have this year nearly
one hundred bushels of wheat, where
but two years ago lie had but thirty,
and In his neighborhood are one hun
dred acres of wheat. In one neighbor
hood in South Thomaston, one thou
sand bushels of wheat were harvested
this season, where only six years ngo
scarcely any wheat was raised.
tiTThere would seem to be no end to
big crops this year. In the North we
have the largest live stock and corn crops
for many years, and now comes along the
South with an enormous cotton crop,
amounting to 4,811,205 bales, against
4,485,423 in 1877. This is the largest
crop since that of 1850-GO, the greatest
ever known,and it is only a little behind
that. Of the tolal supply, 3,840,100 bales
were exported while 1,540 298 bales were
taken for home consumption. The tak
ings for home use were largely in excess
of those of prevloup years.
Proved by Photography.
Proof that the top of a wagon wheel,
when running along on the ground,
moves faster than the bottom, is given,
according to the Scientific American, by
instantaneous photographs of a wagon
in rapid motion. It is obvious, says the
writer, that an instantaneous photo
graph of a wheel, revolving upon its
axles in the air, will show all parts of
the wheel with equal distinctness. But
if the wheel has a progressive motion,
and any one portion has a greater mo
tion than its corresponding part, above
or below, there must be a liability to
blurring in that part of the picture.
These pictures are taken with so brief
an exposure that the horse, though
moving at a 2:24 gait, sharply out-lined.
The wheels of a driver's sulky, how
ever, have a different tale to tell. The
lower third of each wheel is sharp and
distinct as if absolutely at rest. Not so
with the top, that part of the wheel
showing a perceptible movement during
the two thousandth part of a Becond of
the exposure of the plate. The upper
ends of the spokes and rim are blurred.

How Raisins are Prepared.
A strip' of land bordering on the Med
iterranean, somewhat less than one hun
dred miles in length, and in width not
exceeding five or six, is the raisin-producing
territory of Spain. Beyond these
boundaries the muscatel grape, from
which the raisin is principally produced,
may grow and thrive abundantly; but
the fruit must go to the market or the
wine-press. When the grape begins to
ripen in August, the farmer carefully
inspects the fruit as it lies on the warm,
dry soil, and one by one clips the clus
ters as they reach perfection. In almost
all vineyards slants of masonry are pre
pared, looking like un glazed hot-beds
and covered with fine pebbles, on which
the fruit is exposed to dry. But the
small proprietor prefers not to carry his
grapes so far. It is better, he thinks, to
deposit them nearer at hand, where
there is less danger of bruising, and
where bees and wasps are less likely to
find them. Day by day the cut bunches
are examined and turned, till they are
sufficiently cured to be borne to the
house, usually on the hill-top, and there
deposited In the empty wine-press till
enough has been collected for the trim
mers and packers to begin their work.
At this stage great piles of rough-dried
raisins are brought forth from the wine
press and heaped upon boards. One by
one the bunches are carefully inspected,
those of the first quality being trimmed
of all irregularities and Imperfect ber-
rles, and deposited " In piles by them
ieles. So, In turn, are treated those of
the second quality ; while the clippings
and Inferior fruit are received into bask
ets at the feet of the trimmers, and re
served for the home consumption. A
quantity of small wooden trays are now
brought forward, just the size, of a com
mon raisin box, and about an inch
deep. In these, papers are neatly laid.so
as to lap ever and cover the raisins
evenly deposited in the trays, which
are then subjected to heavy presure in
the troys, which are then subjected to
presure in a rude press. After pressing,
the raisins are dropped into the boxes
for market.
