The average estimated product of thepriu-
cipal food crop3 ot the last five years is com-
pared with the average of ten years preceding,
frcrn 1S70 to 1879, inclusive, showing an enor-
mous annual increase in the aggregate as well
as per acre. The average yield of corn his
fcetn 211.9 bushels per aero, against 27.1 for the
preceding period; the average value his
therefore, been higher—44 7 cents per bushel
instead of 42.0, and the average value of an
acre $10 07, instead ot $11 54. The average
jfeldB of wheat in the two periods are nearly
identical—12 ii and 13.4 bushels respectively,
but the prico has averaged 90.1 cents instead
of 1C4 9, the demand not being equal to the
supply.
The Lob Angeles Herald, a few days siaee,
published an interesting statistical table sh) -v-
ing the amount ot green and dried fruit,
raisins,'oranges, lemons, limes, etc , shipped
from California for the nine months up to Oc-
tober 1, by passenger and freight trains. Los
Angeles baa shipped 263,720 pounds of dried
fruits, 5S3,710 pounds raisins, 1119 omm oi*
oranges, lemons and limes, 333,170 pounds of
green fruit by freight trains and 930,410
pounds by passenger trains.
A farmer in Mlddelbnry, Conn., has dis-
covered a valuable assistant ia his farm work.
He has a thirteen-year old ox which in the past
has annoyed bim greatly because of a propen-
sity to shake apples from the trees by inter
locking bis horns in the limbs. Beiug anxious
to secure his immense apple crop before heavy
frosts, the strong ox was turned into the or-
chard and was soon discovered vigorously at
work shaking the apple-tree limbs. The far-
mer says he gathered more than 500 bushels
of apples with the hrip of his witling bovine.
Turkejs are trrojs feeders and lovers of va-
riety; almost anything that would ordinarily
get into the pig trough will prove acceptable
to them.

will not bring a fat price.
'• Young farmers and young men expecting
to become farmers," says Prof. G. E Moore, in
tbe Bulletin ot the Illinois College of Agricul-
ture, " csd do much In the way of getting a
good agricultural education without going to
an agricultural college. Farms are schools.
They are the best of all schools In which to
learn much that concerns farming. They are
the only schools worth naming, so far as
acquiring knowledge of some things connected
with farming is concerned. Teaching by object
lesson is effective. The things we see, ^specially
tbe things we do,-are better remembered and
better understood than are the things
we bear or read about. The best of
ail places at which to learn the prac-
tice of farming is a good farm. Tbe student
at such a school will almost certainly learn
many useful facts, and acquire more or less
skill He may or may not learn principles.
He ought to learn how to use his hands readily
end well. Farmers are teachers. Any boy,
with oommon Sense, who lives on a farm,
must learn something about farming. It is
tbe duty, and ought to be the privilege, of
every farmer who has sons with him, to be
their daily teacher—not alone by hla practice,
important as this is—but by direct teaching.
The eye should be taught to observe carefully:
the hand to work wisely, aa well as steadily;
the ears should be made of nse in learning
about farming. Talking about his bad-
ness, by the farmer, should be daily
made a means of teaching his sons. It Is not
enough simply to tell what to do, simply to
answ er questions. The questions should be en-
couraged or drawn out. When known, the
reasons for doing such things should be given.
It nill really do harm to confess ignorance of
such reasons. Talking in public—in the far it-
ers' club or grange, or in tbe farmers' conven
Hon—by Intelligent farmer*, ia a maans of
teaching of which they do not do enough. Un-
fortunately It often happens that when such
talking is done by them, the young boys have
rot even been asked to be present.
Yourg farmers need the club and
grange more than do their fathers, and
at many agricultural meetings the at
tendance is almost entirely of those who have
reached middle life. For ten years past it 1- as
been my privilege to give instruction in agri-
culture to classes of young men and boys,
mainly fresh from the farms, striking differ-
ences have been noticeable in them as to their
knowledge of the business with which they
bad been connected all their lives. Many of
them have bad good training in the ordinary
practice, but the larger majority have shown
little evidence of training in habits of careful
observation, or in acquiring intelligence ah mt
farming. Most have read very little about
farm matters. Reading is one of the best
means of acquiring an education at
home; and reading about farm-
ing may be made as profitable to
the yourg farmer as reading about almo35
anything else. No one can, from his own ex-
perience, learn all that Is known about farm
leg. We do wisely to get the experience of
others, and oftentimes we can only get much
of this by reading. A good agricultural paper
is the cheapest, most convenient and mist
readily effective means through which any
farmer, young or old, can gain many points
in agriculture, and keep himself well posted
concerning agricultural news. Inducing
farmers' boys to read such a paper is one of
tbe most effective modes of excit-
ing or increasing their interest in
farming affairs. Agricultural books,
as a class, are little valued by the most of
farmers A thoughtful farm boy of eighteen
cr twenty, with a fair common school educa-
tion, can learn very much of Interest and
value by giving bis evenings for a month to
such little books as Thompson's Science in
Farming, or Warrington's Chemistry of the
Farm. These each can be had for $1, It
there were rnach demand for them they ought
not to cost mure than half of this. Following
the study of one of theBe, Masters's Plant Lite
on the Farm might be read, although I do not
count ft so valuable as the others for this pur-
pose. For more mature minds, with some train-
ing In careful reading, 1 know ot nothing
superior to Professor Johnson's How Crops
Grow and How Crops Feed. I should be glad
if seme hundreds or thousands of those who
expect to be farmers would set themselves to
work in something of a systematic way to bet-
tc r educate themselves for their future calling.
The time will certainly come when many
farmers will see it to be wise, not only to help
their sons to such education at home, but also
to send them to some one of the schools where
sclenoes which are intimately connected with
agriculture, and also tbe application of these,
are taught. It will always not seem doubtful
to even intelligent farmers whether special
education for the farm can be profitably given
in schools."

Winter wheat does better on a strong freshly
plowed sod. The soil does not pa!k so hard
and the sod allows more drainage, so that the
water can not pack and destroy the roots of
tbe wheat
The best use of small potatoes is to boil them
arid mix in meal for fatt: ning hogs. They are

1 he acreage devoted to the cultivation of
tobacco in the United Statc-s is said to have
increased from 038,841 acres in 1080 to 700,000
ecres at the present time, while the product
has incieesed from 473,601,000 to 000,000,000
pounds. Until 1870 Virginia led as a tobacco-
inBDufacquriDg State. Now Kentucky is drat.
The late crop of lhat State is said to bo the
largest ever raised, with the exception of
that of 1877, which amounted to 151,484,009
poinds.
'i lie re is probably no food so good for re-
cuperating exhausted muscles as good,
sound, heavy oets. They are easily digested,
nutritious, mnsicle-bollding and blood-making
in a high degree. They are little heating, do
not tend to make horses sweat, and on the
whole aro the best food a horse can ha* e.
Barley is very good, notequal to oats. Indian
corn is a poor sut stitute, not so easily digested,
heating end causing the animal to sweat. As
a system, a horse should have hay first, then
grain, and water when these are digested, or
water should be given bslf en hour at least
before feeding. Horses often have dyspepsia,
induced by being fed when warm, or being
woiked alter a full meal. The practice of
feeding har d worked borate at noon and work-
ins' then1 immediately nft^r is of dountful
u.ility. Horses ml go eight and probably
ten hours wltbout food if pi operly fed at even-
ing end morning. They should have water
more frequently, but never when hot.
It is hardly necessary to tell any one that
the domestic cow is a great feedor, arid that
(his is especially true of cows that are great
milkers.
To cure warts on a horse a correspondent of

English wool circulars hold out a gloomy
prospect to wool-growers, while the cotton
crop of Egypt in reported at about one-half on
account of unfavorable weather. The Afr-
ican farmers, therefore, are not alone in some
of their misfortunes.
A correspondent of the Rural Home says:
" I raised oil! of nine town lots, each measuring
75x100 feet, making In all a fraction over two
acres, nearly 850 bushels of good, sound pota-
toes. The varieties were the White Elephant
and Bride of tbe Field."
Texae Plowman: Allowing ten acres as an
average crop for one baud, and that he gath-
ered six bales—which would be above tbe
average—we have $355 as the result of one
year's labor. Now, who among our farmer
hlends would care to work for the small pit-
tance cf $255 a year and board themselves?
Still there ia no estimate of the capital la-
vested or the wear and tear of implements and
etock necessary for this production. We im-
agine we hear Bome one exclaim; "But he
has his corn, potatoes and Btock to assist
him." It is trne he has ■ corn, but
this cern, and all c>f it will be needed to f<sed
the stock employed In raising the cotton, and
es for the other it' ms, we contend that a man
who cullivates ten ae'res of cotton haano spare
time to attend to stock or anything else. Tue
only way out of this dilliculty Is tei raise about
five acres of cotton and plenty of grain, as
much as he can handle, and he will Bud his
profits thribled, bh be will have time to devote
to his stock, end have suflicient grain to beep
them in a msrketablo condition. In the fall,
when rot much else la to be done, he can gath-
er his cotton. This Is tbe only way any profit
can be derived from raising cotton.
Mexican iwnu.
The City of Mexico Two Republics Bays:
Tbe number of beggars on tbe streets has
increased alarmingly during the past few
days, and gives the impression that tbey hava
adopted the profession of begging more from
oboice than necessity. Every night along tbe
leadirg streets, VIrgara, Coliseo, Platoros, 8»n
Fraiicisco and Santa Isabel people have to el
bow their way through groups of loathsome
cripples and disease-striken creatures; twisted
specimens of humanity occupy the corners and
pleod for alms. Paralytic paupers, maimed,
iBme and blind even stop the passers-by and
beg for charity, in the name of "Santislma
Trinidad."
The Motul Gaceta (Yucatan) Bays that the
greater part of the corn consumed at that point
of the penintula is frenn tbe United States.
The grasshoppers have injured the corn crops
there.
A Presbyterian church was established in
Merlda, Yucatan, some three weeks ago, when
Rev. J. Milton Greene was there.
A eubinspector of police in Guadalajara
tried to make a woman confess in a case he
was trying to ferret out, and he huug bar up
by the thumbs The bystanders interfered
and released the woman.
On the 29th ultimo thirty armed men at-
tacked the government garrison at Z icoaloo,
Jalisco, and killed three of the soldiers. It is
thought the assailants belonged to Corona
Csmpoe's bandit gang.
The trial of Colonel Earlque Oaiana, con-
gressman from San Gabriel, Jalisco, for t'la
killing ot Robert W. Hardie last spring, clossd
with the acquittal of the accused. Ttta pross
cutfrg attorney charged Omana with homi
cite. Omana, he contended, was arinsd. and
Bardie was not. " What If the latter strurck
the first blow? He was a foreigner, far from
frienL's and relatives, unarmed, a mere boy in
strength and stature, and the prisoner should
not have answered the blow of a boy's fist
with the fearful bullet of a revolver. If he
considered himself insulted by an Inferior.
Omana should have bad him arrested; and if
by antqual be should at least in fair play have
given the other an equal chance, even it he
considered it neocssary to fight a duel. The
boy wos intoxicated, and Omana Bhould have
made due allowanco. Omana was surrounded
at the time by friends As a colonel la
the army and a congressman, he could hava
bad Hai die arrested on the spot." He closed
by calling on tbe jury to impartially consider
the case, and not let national prejudice blind
them in tbe luast. Eye witnesses, M. Tieste,
Cosme Vera and H. Portillo, testified that on
the night in question Hardie attended a ball a'
Ihe Eliseo Tivoll; that he saw the prostitufe,
Pancbala Ronca, in a supper room with Oma
db; that he made an offiensive sign at tbe lat-
ter, who asked him the meaning thereof; that
Hardie's reply was a blow; that Oaiiua
jumped back, draw bis revolver and sioi
Hardie. The defense claimed that Onana
could not act otherwise; that, as a military
man and a congressman, he could not brook
tbe insult of baving bis face slapped. The
case of the defense was strengthened by the
testimony of General Hermenegildo Carrillo,
military commander of the Fiaza, and others,
who testified as to the uniform good coudujt ot
Colonel Omana. The jary brought in a ver-
dict of "not guilty."
The Two Republics prints a short biography
of a man once widely known, Captain Porter,
who left' the United States navy to assist
Mexico in her war with cSp»iu. Among a
people bred to the use of arms, and involved
in deadly warfare, It was a much easier mat
ter to raise an army than, out of the limited
means of tbe few seaports, to find vessels and
officers to whose oaro tbe national flag could
be intrusted on the other element. Fortune
bad thrown in tbe way of the first govern-
ments a man most useful for this department
of tbe public service. This was David H
Porter, a native of the United States. At
fourteen or fifteen years of age he entered tbe
American navy, and took part in several
engagements during the war ot 1812.
In 1S25 and 1826 tbe Mexican government had
purchased in England and the United States a
few ships of war. TheBe vessels were the fri-
gate Libertad, and the brigs Viotoria, Bravo,
Herma and Guerrero. Porter was given the
command of tbe Guerrero, and he conceived
and executed many most successful maneu-
vers, such as capturing twenty-four Spauish
merchant ships off tliecoist of Cuba and inter-
cepting supplies for the enemy. The Guerrero
sailed from Vera Cruz in February, 1833, for
a cruise during whteh Captain Porter laid
open tbe weakness of the coast of Cuba. With
bis single ship be kept tbe naval authorities of
that Island for some time in a state of alarm,
end on the 10th day of that month the Guerre-
ro fell in with the Spanish brig Marto and the
schooner Amelia, escorting smaller craft. A
running fight was kept up for several hours,
end tbe two Spanish ships took
refuge in the harbor of Banes.
Owing to the darkness of the n'ght
ihe Guerrero did not follow her enemies iuto
the herbor, and when the morning of the 11th
of February dawned she discovered a sail
slar.ditg before the wind to the eastward.
This vessel was the Spanish frigate Laaltad,
e f 54 gunB and 300 men, who defiad the Mexi-
can ebip to combnt. Porter dirl not refuse the
ebsllerge, although bfs vessel only carriel 23
puu6 atd 194 men, and engaged his opponent.
! he action begun at 0 a, m. rand lastad two
hours. Tbe Guerrero was literally cut to
pieces in a lino with her ports; har upper
«ci ka. bouts atd spare spars were one ci n-
j-Iete wreck, and she was forced to strike her
colons. Tbe loss on board the (Juerrero was
25 k l ee! and 15 wounded, and the Leaitad bad
a lots of 15 n en. Captain Porter was killed,
a cannon ta'l struck isirn full ia the chest, jost
in the hem of the action, and almost ali ths
e flie< rs e,f the Guerrero were either killed or
wounded.
Tub Mystery of toe Mill, by Miss Anna
Relborine Green, begun in the Chr^Cmis

pacer, is evidently to prove a masterpiece,

For Instant Use
As a reliable remedy, in cases of Croup,
Whooping Cough, or sudden Colds,
and for the prompt relief and cure of
tliroat and lung diseases, Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral is invaluable. Mrs. E. G. Edgcrly,
Council Blurt's, Ienvu, writes: "I consider
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral a most important
remedy for home use. I liave tested its
curative power, in my family, many
times during the past thirty years, aud
have never known it to fail. It will re-
lieve the most serious affections of the
throat nml lungs, whether in children or
adults." John H. Stoddard, Petersburg,
Va., writes: "I Utivo aevcr found a med-
icine equal to
AYER'S
Cherry Pectoral
for the prompt relief of throat and lung
diseases peculiar to children. I consider
it an absolute cure for all such affections,
and am never without it in the house."
Sirs. L. E. Herman, 18" Mercer st., Jersey
City, writes: "I have always found
Ayer's Cherry Pectorul useful in my fam-
ily." B. T. Johnson, Mt. Savage, Md.,
writes: "For the speedy cure of sudden
Colds, and for the relief of children afflict-
ed with Croup, I have never found any-
thing equal to Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.
It is the most potent of all the remedies I
have ever used." W. II. Stickler, Terre
Haute, Ind., writes: "Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral cured my wife of a severe lung
affection, supposed to be Quick Con-
sumption. We now regard the Pectoral
as a household necessity." E. M. Breck-
enridge, Brainerd, Minn., writes: "I
am subject to Bronchitis, aud, wherever I
go, aui always sure to havo a bottle of
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral
with me. It is without a rival for the cure
of bronchial affections."
