A Mountain Fruit Farm.
Holon Hoblneon writing to the N. Y.,
Tribune, thus describes a fruit farm in
Juniata County;
I am spending a few weeks in the
beautiful valley f. Juniata, and making
frequent rides over tbe bills and among
tbe old-fashioned Dutch farmers of this
(Perry) and tbe adjoining county of
Juniata ; solid, wealthy, unprogresBive
, ' as they were an hundred years ago.
, Many of them etill live in their hewed
fc log-houses, not half as large, handsome,
airy or comfortable as their barns, which
I have named "agricultural cottages."
Nearly all the orchards upon these old
farms are of the most unimproved sorts
of apples and seedling peaches of late
ripening kinds. 'Only now and then a
man seems to have thought of trying
experiments in growing better sorts,
or more than was wanted for family
use. The people are farmers in the
strictest seiiBe. Gardening and fruit cult
ure are occult sciences. But, a new light
is dawning in this valley ; an experi
ment is in .progress which proves that
these rough mountain sides are nature's
chosen spots foe orchards ; that here the
. cultivators of peaches in Jersey, Dele
ware and Maryland may renew their
work when it fails in those States, for
here is an abundance of cheap land, of
j ' . little value for grain cultivation, yet
excellent for orchards. This has been
lately proved in Beveral instances and
different localities, but most extensively
on the south bank of the Juniata river,
in Juniata county, about one hundred
and forty-four miles from Philadelphia,
npar n atntlnn pallwl Thnmnnnntnwn.
There, if the traveler eoing west on the
Pennsylvania railroad will look out
south aud up the steep hill side, he will
see the main part of an orchard of 15,
600 peach trees, and 0)000 Siberian crab
apple trees. And if he Bhould stop and
walk or ride through the orchard,as I did
A - . . . i A
l ty- , io-aay, ana nnu one aeaa or uiseasea tree
be will find more tnan I could : altnougn
I was told by Mr. Taylor, the foreman,
that he did lose one tree dn the section
pi l TT UVEA'S VT C bUCTil
J 11 And how many trees are in this sec-
VI . -8ix thousand."
? 1 TsTntwtt.hfltAndlntf All t.ho natural nhnlA.
cleS, every tree has been so exactly set
in right angle lines that the transverse
rows appear as straight as those on the
horizontal and vertical lines. Thus,
vhen furrows can be ploughed at all,
iey can be run six ways among the
lees, which are set 14 feet apart for
(caches and quinces and 20 feet for ap
f J pies."' To accomplish this remarkable
y., result of straight rows and exact distance
required many a hard day'B work re
moving stumps and stones and filling
up holes. Now the beauty of the work
fully repays the extra cost. It is how
ever, costly work to prepare the steep
hillsides by band labor, for tbe largest
part of the timber trees had been cut off
years ago, leaving a thicket of brush
wood. An attempt is being made to
utilize the brush by cutting It in a ma
chine like a straw cutter aud sending
the product to market for kindling eoal
ifires.
The first section of peach trees was
planted in 1875, and the first full erop
was being gathered today, the varieties
CrajsfordJEarly (white), a fair size
and good flavor ; and ' Beatrice, a small,
jred blush, early peach, very delicious.
, The Philadelphia market being over
stocked, it does not pay to ship ; so a
drying house has been hastily erected,
and a hot-air dryer, capable of drying
sixty bushels a day, put in operation.--The
peaohes are peeled by hand machines
of recently improved pattern, which do
.good work rapidly. By drying the
frnit the seeds are saved for the nursery,
for there are many acres of orchards yet
to be planted. The trees which come
tato bearing next year will produce
Y fruit frorn early in July till late frost.
l la pruuame umi nu 01 uie improved
methods of putting up the ripe fruit will
1 be adopted, instead of marketing it fresh;
I owing to the long transportation and
risk. There are Hi acres in the tract.
A word as to the incentive of Mr.
j xirauioia s great worK. a tew years
ago this tract came into bis bands upon
the false representation that it contain
ed veins of iron ore. He bought it un-

A NEW DEPARTURE!
BEST PLOW IN THE WORLD !
THE SYRACUSE CHILLED PLOW CO.
of Syraouoa, N. Y.
Are now putting on tbe market a Flow that
Is as much superior to any Plow heretofore
moilo as the PlowS ot tho past low years havo
been superior to iom made hall a century
ago.
It combines all tho excellencies of any Plow
in use.
It obviates all the objections made to any
other Plow.
In addition It embraces several new features
of the greatest value, for which wo have ob
tained exclusive Patents.
Its Beam, Clevis, Jointer Standard and Wheel
Standard win be 8TEKL, and Its mold board
will be a composition of steel and Iron chilled
under a process for which we have also
obtained an exclnslvo Patent; It will be
culled
THE SYRACUSE
CHILLED STEEL PLOW
Its weight will be eighteen pounds less than
our present Btyles.
A first-class Steel Plow, mods In the or
dinary way, full rigged, retails for twenty-two
dollars. Inferior Steel Plows retail from six
teen to nineteen dollars.
The price ot our new Plow will bo but
Seventeen Dalian, and It will bo tho
cheapest Agricultural Implement ever sold.
Its mold board will outwear three ot tho
very best Kinds of the ordinary steel mold
boards.
It will Bcour In soils where all Btccl plows
and on other plows have hitherto proved a
failure.
With this Plow will bo Introduced a corru-
gated Plow Point and Jointer Point, on which
we havo also obtained a Patent, and which is
also a great Improvement, both as regards
strength and wear.
Tho Jointer can be shifted so as to take
more or loss land, and also more or less pitch,
and It can always be kept on a line with tho
Plow.
The wheel will run under the beam or ono
side ot It as desired, and always kept In Una.
The boom Is adjustable for Spring or Fall
Flowing, and also lor two or three horses.
The handles can be adjusted to accommo
date a man or boy, on tho Borne Plow.
It Is a perfect Plow.
Wooden beams are going out of uso because
they shrink, swell and warp, and never run
two seasons alike.
Iron beams ore too heavy.
Malleable beams become demoralized and
bend, which Is much worse than to break,
A Steel beam Is tho necessity of the day. It
Is three times as strong and very much lighter
than any other style.
When ic Bay a Mold board Is chilled, tho
farmers know It Is so.
We do not palm off on them a composition
of various metals and coll It chilled metal
We wont agents lor this now Plow In every
town In this State.
We can give but a very small discount to
them, but we will pay tho Railroad Freight
We propose to placo this Plow In the hands
of Farmers as near the cost of manufacture
as possible.
It will bo U10 beat Agricultural Implement
ever sold.
It shall also bo the cheapetL
Persons therefore who are not willing to act
as Agents on the principle that "a nimble six
pence Is better than a slow shilling," need not
apply for an agoncy.
No Plows on commission. All sales absolute.
WTbls Is the only Steel chilled Flow In
the World.
steel costs several times more than Iron.
But this Plow, full rigged, by giving small
discounts, can be sold for Sevntecn Dollars:
Compare this price with that of any iron Plow
ever mode.
It Is cheaper than any other Plow now
made would be at five dollars and a halt
Where there are no agents we will, on re
ceipt of Seventeen Dollars, send a Plow to any
Railroad station In the 6tate and pay tho
freight. Address,
